Chapter 1321 - 1316: Handshake
Gu Qinyue hadn’t expected Teacher Liu to be this rough, and there was only deep helplessness on her face.
Not long ago, because she felt she had no foothold in Fenglin, she deliberately came out to look for a job.
However, contrary to her wishes, an ideal job was very far away from her.
And these martial arts halls in the mundane world were also completely unreasonable in their recruiting.
They all only wanted guys with good builds. Gu Qinyue was a cute little girl; she looked great on the outside, but she wasn’t the kind of muscular man you could use to fool students’ parents.
So things didn’t go smoothly with her job hunt, and she ran into all kinds of rejection.
In the end, when she came to this Zhengheng Martial Arts Hall, it just so happened that Teacher Liu was present during the interview, so he used his connections to bend the rules and took Gu Qinyue in.
For that, Qinyue was of course very grateful.
But gratitude can’t be eaten as food, can it?
Every time, Teacher Liu would make dirty little hints at her. After being with Qin Hao for so long, Gu Qinyue wasn’t a kid anymore.
How could she not know there was a filthy heart hiding under this muscleman’s sunny exterior.
She could only turn him down.
The first few times she refused it was still okay, but this time, Teacher Liu blew up on the spot.
"Teacher Gu, I’ve already said this much, and you still won’t give me some face and have a meal with me?!"
Teacher Liu’s tone got more and more aggressive.
The primary school kids not far away all looked over, not knowing what these two teachers were doing.
After hesitating again and again, feeling this was having a bad effect, Gu Qinyue could only nod and say, "Teacher Liu, I’ll have a meal with you this once, but don’t overthink it, I don’t like you!"
Hearing that she’d eat with him, Teacher Liu had been very happy, but the latter "I don’t like you" instantly triggered him.
He blurted out, "You don’t even like me! Then who do you like!"
"I like strong people, strong like my brother!!"
Without the slightest hesitation, Gu Qinyue answered directly.
"Strong people?" Teacher Liu showed a proud expression. "And I’m not a strong person? I was a sports student in college, after graduating I went straight into Beijing Sports University to work. This job at the martial arts hall is just my side gig, and I even took the runner-up at last year’s National Sanda Tournament. Someone like me doesn’t count as strong?"
Watching Teacher Liu brag, Gu Qinyue really wanted to tell him, "Compared to my brother you’re a weak chicken."
But to avoid hurting his feelings, she still tactfully said, "Of course Teacher Liu is also a strong person, but my brother is stronger..."
"Your brother?"
Teacher Liu was unconvinced. "Your brother? Can he do two hundred push-ups in one go! Can he do fifty pull-ups! Is his squat number higher than mine?"
Gu Qinyue shook her head. Brother Hao had never done those things, how could she know.
"Tch, then he’s just trash!" Teacher Liu said in extreme narcissism, "Your brother can’t do those, but I can, so he can’t compare to me!"
"You’re not allowed to talk about my brother like that!"
Hearing Qin Hao being smeared, Gu Qinyue got furious, even her expression changed.
"Heh heh! Teacher Gu, don’t take it to heart, I’m just a straightforward person. If you think it’s unpleasant to hear, you can let your brother come fight back against me!"
Teacher Liu was a typical male chauvinist. He puffed out his chest, face full of arrogance, completely looking down on everyone.
"My brother’s not in Beijing!"
Gu Qinyue hadn’t expected Teacher Liu to be this kind of person, and instantly got even angrier.
"Not in Beijing? Heh!" A mocking smile hung on Teacher Liu’s face. "Looks like you’re afraid your brother will embarrass himself in front of me! Seems your brother is just a useless wimp!"
"You!"
Gu Qinyue was enraged. She could endure Teacher Liu’s unreasonable pestering and rudeness.
But insulting Qin Hao was something she absolutely couldn’t tolerate!
As her emotions surged, her hair stood up slightly—that was a sign she was about to transform.
Teacher Liu folded his arms, extremely pleased with himself, seemingly still unaware he might be facing danger.
Just then, a hand rested on Gu Qinyue’s shoulder, and a gentle voice followed: "Qinyue, don’t be angry."
"Brother!"
Hearing that voice, even without turning around, Gu Qinyue knew who it was.
Her body trembled, and she turned around with a face lit up with surprise.
Sure enough, Qin Hao was standing there with a smile on his face.
"Brother! When did you get back!"
Gu Qinyue’s face was full of joy, and those little eyes of hers were as bright as if they’d spotted stars in the sky.
"Just today." Qin Hao replied with a smile.
"Brother! I missed you so much!" With the two older sisters not around, Gu Qinyue didn’t bother with restraint, and took the initiative to reach out and pull Qin Hao into her arms.
"I missed you too, Qinyue!" Qin Hao hugged Gu Qinyue and took a deep sniff of the scent of her silky hair.
The intimate scene between the two made Teacher Liu on the side feel awful inside.
He carefully examined their looks. Qin Hao had that broad, handsome vibe, while Gu Qinyue was small and adorably dumb. No matter how you looked at them, they didn’t resemble each other.
Could it be they weren’t real brother and sister?
"Qinyue, is this your biological brother?" Teacher Liu couldn’t help asking.
"No." Gu Qinyue was adorably resting her head on Qin Hao’s.
No? Then he must be her cousin!
Are cousins this intimate!
In an instant, Teacher Liu was eaten up with jealousy inside, his face even twisting a little.
The cabbage he’d been chasing for so long actually belonged to someone else.
How could he swallow that!
"Heh heh! So this is the strong big brother you’re always going on about!"
Having made up his mind, Teacher Liu looked at Qin Hao with a dark face and said, "Sir, Teacher Gu talks about you all the time! Seeing you today, you’re indeed a fine figure of a man!"
He deliberately put extra weight on the four words "fine figure of a man," clearly mocking and warning him.
Qin Hao smiled, "Hehe, I don’t dare accept the compliment."
Hearing that, Gu Qinyue felt a bit embarrassed. She slipped out of Qin Hao’s arms and said with a blush, "Brother, sorry, I got too excited."
"It’s fine, if you want a hug then hug me, we’re family, aren’t we!"
Qin Hao said generously.
Damn! Teacher Gu actually blushed!
I’ve been with her so long and never seen her like this!
The more bashful and girlish Gu Qinyue acted, the more pissed off Teacher Liu got.
Because this kind of charm didn’t belong to him.
"May I ask your honorable surname?" Having already cursed Qin Hao ten thousand times in his heart, Teacher Liu still didn’t rush to fall out with him, and instead extended his hand.
"Qin Hao." Qin Hao lightly reached his hand out, and the two hands clasped together.
In that instant, Teacher Liu was ecstatic inside.
Ha, you idiot! You actually dared to put your hand out, watch me crush your hand to pieces!
Back in the sports team, Teacher Liu had trained in the discus. His grip strength was terrifying, and his classmates jokingly called him "Liu the Handless," meaning his handshake was enough to crush someone’s hand.
Of course that was a joke, but there were real examples behind it.
Like one time, Teacher Liu shook hands with a classmate, and because he was angry, he almost crushed the guy’s hand bones.
That alone showed just how strong his grip was.
