Chapter 246 The Pursuer
However, the appearance of Lan Yudie had also stirred the hearts of many young men, eager to move.
Or rather, it could be said that Lan Yudie had countless admirers. Many were extremely devoted to Lan Yudie, including Qin Jun. Qin Jun was the vice president of Global Group, as well as the older brother of Qin Xiaotian.
Qin Jun was the future successor of the Qin Family, and now nearly thirty, he was a remarkable man, primarily thanks to his mother's excellent genes, which made both descendants of the Qin Family exceptionally handsome.
Qin Jun was a very decisive figure, and with the backing of the Qin Family, he was a well-known figure in the provincial city. Back in the day, Qin Jun had been extremely infatuated with Li Xiaoya, but since she had eventually married someone else, he had no choice but to step back.
Although Li Xiaoya later got divorced, within the circles of the elite, where could a 'second-hand' woman be accommodated? Thus, Qin Jun soon turned his attention to Lan Yudie.
In the afternoon after school, a Mercedes S600 slowly drove into Shuimu University and stopped in front of the Comprehensive Building.
The driver hurried down from the driver's seat, then opened the rear car door with utmost respect and said, "President Qin, shall we go in and visit Miss Lan?"
"No!" Qin Jun shook his head, saying, "We'll just wait here."
"Yes!" The driver immediately nodded.
Afterward, the driver stood stiffly at the front of the car, vigilantly watching the surroundings. The driver had not only to fulfill his duties as a driver but also to ensure the safety of Qin Jun. This was a necessary skill for a driver who is also a bodyguard.
Before long, Lan Yudie came out from the Comprehensive Building. However, she had already changed her outfit.
A set of grey and white sportswear, with red sneakers on her feet. Her hair was casually tied into a ponytail, giving off a youthful and vibrant look. Her figure was quite impressive, well-proportioned, and brimming with youthful vitality; her backwards-sloping posture gave her a firm and upwardly firm demeanor. Perhaps this was the result of her regular exercise.
Seeing Lan Yudie come out, Qin Jun quickly got out of the car.
He wore a neat beige suit and his hair was meticulously upright. His shiny black shoes looked particularly handsome. He had deep-set eyes, but with a hook-nosed, his entire demeanor suddenly seemed somewhat somber.
The driver couldn't wait to open the trunk, then took out a bunch of roses from the back, ninety-nine in total.
"Yudie." Qin Jun, with his hands in his trouser pockets, walked slowly toward Lan Yudie.
"Qin Jun?" Lan Yudie blinked, then smiled, "Why are you here?"
"It's your first day on the job today, how could I not come to see you?" Qin Jun smiled and said, "Also, today is your twenty-fifth birthday. I've come to wish you a happy birthday."
"Hee hee, thank you!" Lan Yudie smiled.
At that moment, the driver quickly brought over the ninety-nine roses. Qin Jun smiled and said, "These are the fresh flowers I'm giving you, I hope you like them!"
"Ah?" Lan Yudie blinked, asking, "These... these are roses?"
"Yes!" Qin Jun nodded, saying, "I'm a simple man, I didn't know what else to bring you. I heard girls like flowers, so I brought you flowers."
"But, roses symbolize love, I can't accept your flowers!" Lan Yudie immediately shook her head.
"Then…" Qin Jun hesitated briefly before saying, "Actually, I want to tell you, I really like you. This bouquet of roses was carefully chosen by me. Yudie, we've known each other for almost a year now, ever since we met at that party, I haven't been able to stop thinking about you. I know I'm a simple person, not worthy of such a beautiful girl like you.
But still, I hope to have a chance to pamper and love you, is that okay?"
Lan Yudie paused, then said, "Qin Jun, today... today isn't April Fool's Day, you know."
"Yudie, my feelings for you are real." Qin Jun looked earnestly at Lan Yudie and said, "Be my girlfriend, okay?"
"No way!" Lan Yudie hurriedly shook her head and then said, "I... I don't want to be in a relationship right now, I don't want to talk about feelings. In short... I... I can't be your girlfriend."
"Why not?" Qin Jun was not in a hurry, but instead watched Lan Yudie with grace.
"Because... because I need to focus on my studies." Lan Yudie pursed her lips and said, "Anyway, I can't accept your flowers, because we are just ordinary friends."
Lan Yudie rejected Qin Jun's pursuit.
It wasn't that Lan Yudie didn't want to fall in love; it was because she felt there was a gap between herself and Qin Jun. Qin Jun was the vice president of a listed company, and moreover, Global Group was his family's company, with a market value of tens of billions. Just this aspect was enough to astonish and frighten people.
Lan Yudie actually had feelings for Qin Jun, but she was very fearful of the elite circles.
"No problem, I can wait for you!" Qin Jun smiled and then said, "Whenever you finish your studies, that's when I'll marry you, okay?"
"Not good!" Lan Yudie hurriedly shook her head, then blushing and with a grievance said, "Qin Jun, don't push me. I... I don't want to talk about this right now, okay?"
"Okay, okay!" Hearing this, Qin Jun laughed heartily; Lan Yudie's aggrieved look was very adorable. Qin Jun wanted to pull her into his arms to comfort her, but considering his image and Lan Yudie's, he restrained his emotions slightly. Qin Jun laughed and said, "Yudie, I invite you to have a meal today, you can't refuse me this time, right?"
"Okay." Lan Yudie nodded slightly.
The two were decent friends, so she couldn't really refuse this gesture.
Qin Jun hurriedly opened the car door, and Lan Yudie slipped into the car. Then, the driver drove away.
Many students saw this scene.
"Is that person Qin Jun?" A sharp-eyed student recognized Qin Jun and said, "Who would have thought that Lan Yudie is actually Qin Jun's girlfriend?"
"Oh my God? Is that the president of Global Group?" A girl exclaimed and then said, "I really didn't expect Lan Yudie to become Qin Jun's girlfriend. She's so lucky."
"Exactly!" The student nodded and said, "She's indeed very lucky."
This kind of gossip always spread quickly across the campus like it had wings, and soon, many intimate photos of Lan Yudie and Qin Jun appeared on the school forum. Moreover, the news quickly reached Dormitory 101.
"Damn, who would have thought that Lan Yudie is actually Qin Jun's girlfriend!" Liu Bin slammed the mouse hard and said, "Shit, there's no chance now." Your next journey awaits at My Virtual Library Empire
"What's going on?" Zhang Dagou rubbed his puzzled eyes.
"Who's Qin Jun? Damn, he's worth hundreds of millions." Liu Bin said in distress, "The guy is handsome too, and if I were a woman, I guess I would choose Qin Jun as well."
"Heh heh…" Xiao Han chuckled and said, "So, you better stop dreaming."
"Get up!" Zhang Feng ran in from outside, covered in sweat.
This guy insisted on exercising every morning, running at six o'clock, Liu Bin also got up at six to play games. Xiao Han got up at six to study, feeling like a huge sponge that needed to absorb a great deal of knowledge. Therefore, Xiao Han insisted on studying every day and reading a wide range of books. Zhang Dagou kept sleeping until eight in the morning.
"Military training is starting soon." Zhang Feng wiped his sweat and said, "Get up quickly. Otherwise, we'll be late."
Afterward, Liu Bin put away his computer, Xiao Han put down his books, and Zhang Dagou crawled out of his quilt.
Military training is an important part of university life and also a significant process for the physical training of university students.
The instructor responsible for the first class of the Finance Department military training was a post-90s young man around the same age as Xiao Han. He had dark skin and wore a green military instructor's uniform. He was about 1.75 meters tall and very muscular. He had a stern expression and a serious demeanor.
"Look at you all, are you really university students?" The instructor sneered and said, "I'm really ashamed for you university students. You're all slow and sluggish. Each of you has a stooped posture. If the country were left in the hands of people like you to defend, we would surely become slaves to our invaders one day!"
His voice was loud and equally harsh.
The instructor's first lesson was to intimidate these students, so he could easily manage this flock of 'sheep' over the next half month.
"You, step out of the line!" The instructor suddenly pointed at a male student at the front.
"Huh? What… what did I do?" The male student looked embarrassed.
"Humph!" The instructor sneered and said, "Who allowed you to scratch your ear?"
"Is it wrong for me to scratch my ear too?" The male student looked distressed.
"No." The instructor coldly rebuked, "Didn't you know you need to report before doing anything?"
"I…"
"Shut up!" The instructor glared at him and then said, "Now listen to me, run two laps around the track. Once you're done, rejoin the formation!"
"Yes!" The male student nodded reluctantly.
The entire class was silent as a tomb. Everyone hung their heads, not daring to speak.
A smug look flashed in the instructor's eyes, and he grinned, then said, "Good, that's the way. Starting today, you are the soldiers in my hands. You must obey me unconditionally. Because it is a soldier's duty. Understand?"
"Yes!" The crowd shouted dispiritedly.
"Haven't you all eaten?" The instructor barked, "Answer again!"
"Yes!" Everyone shouted in unison this time.
"Get your spirits up," the instructor snorted coldly, then said, "Stand at attention properly, for half an hour."
At his command, everyone stood up straight, heads up, chests out, stomachs in, and buttocks tight.
On the field, each class formed a squadron. Everyone wore camouflage uniforms and caps, looking sharp and orderly. The instructor weaved through the students, his eyes on everyone. If he spotted anything amiss, he immediately kicked at it.
