My Pretty Campus Queen

Chapter 1410: Chapter 1409: The Playful Xiao Qing

Xiao Qing is a lively girl, usually quite active, somewhat similar to Gu Yuxin, though she possesses a natural wildness that Gu Yuxin does not.

Gu Yuxin is a typical girl who is strong on the outside but gentle on the inside. When emotions run deep, she won’t hesitate and appears very arrogant and domineering on the surface, but becomes a tender little woman when she meets someone she fancies.

For instance, when she is with Chen Tianlong, it reveals her gentle and lovely side.

"Hey, Qing’er, stop fooling around and go back, what’s a girl doing getting involved in these things?" Xiao Feng furrowed his brows and said.

"No, oh daddy, don’t be like this, I want to go play with them."

Xiao Qing said coquettishly to Xiao Feng.

In the Fire Dragon Gang, it is only in front of Xiao Feng that Xiao Qing acts spoiled, towards others she typically presents a cold demeanor.

Xiao Qing was born while Xiao Feng was serving in the army, and until his daughter was nearly ten years old, he only returned due to an injury.

Unfortunately, Xiao Qing’s mother died of a severe illness, leaving father and daughter to rely on each other, hence Xiao Feng dearly loves his daughter.

But Xiao Qing’s naturally active disposition and disobedience cause Xiao Feng some headaches.

"Qing’er, this isn’t a joke, we’re on a mission to steal the enemy’s granary, if something goes wrong, we might not make it back." Xiao Feng straightforwardly said.

"Ah, stealing food, I like that, I must go!" Xiao Qing was excited by her father’s words and was determined to go.

Hearing Xiao Qing’s response, Xiao Feng was speechless. This girl has only known play from childhood—one of these days, she’ll cause trouble.

"No, you’re not going. It’s decided, you’ll stay with Wu Guangzu and Ru Nian tonight, along with Xiaohu, Bao, Xiaole, Daxiong... and Tan Batian."

Xiao Feng thought for a moment and mentioned his nephew, after all, all the important tasks were mobilized, if he didn’t even offer a main family member, it would be insincere.

Tan Batian is a master of the Seven Stars of Celestial Dao, and dealing with such sudden events, though he might not capture the food, he could ensure safety and return, so Xiao Feng wasn’t too worried.

Moreover, Tan Batian’s advantage is his caution in all matters.

From the Celestial Pill Sect’s trial, when he reminded Chen Tianlong not to be impulsive, it’s evident he acts meticulously; this is the trust Xiao Feng has in him, otherwise, he wouldn’t have entrusted this responsibility to him.

This mission not only helps the Assassin Group but also benefits himself.

Seeing his own stockade short on food, in a few days, people would start going hungry, so strictly speaking, this operation concerns everyone’s survival.

Tan Batian nodded slightly, understanding his uncle’s intention—during such critical times, united strength is essential to deal with the mighty army of the Sabina people, otherwise, it would be impossible to counter them.

And Xiao Feng surely realized that leveraging the Assassin Group’s mission for the salvation of all, they could quickly rally people, enlarging their ranks.

"Uncle, I will safely bring the brothers back and absolutely complete the mission."

Tan Batian gritted his teeth and vowed.

"Good!"

Xiao Feng didn’t say much to Tan Batian, then turning to Wu Guangzu, he said: "We rely entirely on the brothers of the Assassin Group this time. Our Fire Dragon Gang brothers will cooperate closely with you, and the food we obtain will be secretly transported out."

"Yes, Gang Leader, rest assured, we will be careful and ensure the mission is completed."

Wu Guangzu resolutely said, knowing that retrieving control of the Assassin Group from Kuang Chenggong all hinges on this—if successful, it would all be worthwhile.

"Haha, a word from Brother Wu puts my mind at ease."

Finished speaking, Xiao Feng glanced kindly at Xiao Qing and said: "Qing’er, be obedient, don’t fool around, stay at home tonight, and don’t go anywhere."

"Oh daddy, I want to go out with Brother Wu and Brother Li."

Xiao Qing was still not resigned, unable to suppress her restless heart, and seeing Wu Guangzu again, ripples arose in her heart; she wanted to talk to him.

But Xiao Qing couldn’t find an opportunity, so she intended to use the chance to steal food to spend more time with Wu Guangzu, yet her father was firmly opposed, making her extremely frustrated.

"Qing’er, no nonsense, I’ve made it clear, this is a mission, not a game." Xiao Feng felt a bit exasperated at her lack of discipline.

At this moment, Tan Batian couldn’t bear it anymore, quickly walked over, and pulled Xiao Qing aside, saying: "Alright, cousin, you should listen to your father, he’s doing it for your benefit."

Xiao Qing pouted, then said: "Alright, alright, I won’t go."

Hearing his daughter’s words, Xiao Feng finally relaxed, "Hmm, everyone’s dismissed for a rest, we set off tonight."

Having said that, Xiao Feng walked straight to his room. Xiao Qing, knowing she had angered her father, didn’t follow, but when she turned back, she saw Wu Guangzu smiling at her.

This moment of glance back accelerated the budding affections of a young girl, causing her heart a slight tremor.

Is it him? Why does my heart tingle, wanting to talk to him, is it really him? It should be him. Xiao Qing thought confusedly.

"Sister, I’ll head back to rest, Brother still has a mission tonight."

After Tan Batian said this, he left.

"Mm-hmm, alright."

Xiao Qing nodded. She liked this cousin; at least he treated her well.

At this time, Wu Guangzu, seeing Xiao Qing standing dazedly, felt curious and walked over: "Qing’er, what’s the matter?"

"Ah?"

Qing’er was thinking of scenarios of encountering Wu Guangzu, and unexpectedly her heartthrob appeared before her unguarded and greeted her. This made Xiao Qing’s breathing rapid, and her face flushed in an instant.

Initially seeing her staring, Wu Guangzu felt confused; now seeing her blush suddenly, he instinctively thought Qing’er was unwell and concernedly asked: "Yikes, Qing’er, what’s wrong, why is your face so red?"

Xiao Qing was embarrassed when Wu Guangzu asked this, becoming terribly shy, and before Wu Guangzu could react, she "whoosh" ran back to her room.

Wu Guangzu, a bit flustered, watched the disappearing figure in bewilderment, unable to grasp the situation. However, someone saw it all, clear as day.

That was Gu Yuxin, who now understood that when it came to romance, Wu Guangzu was a complete dummy, just like Ru Nian—the strategist—with no understanding of romance.

For a moment, Gu Yuxin felt incredibly safe with a group of pure-hearted and lovable men.

However, though she thought this way, Gu Yuxin couldn’t help but reminisce about Chen Tianlong, with his playful nature, mischievous gaze, and teasing tone, making her miss it dearly.

"Where are you? Are you well?"

This is a woman’s deep affection for her first love.
