Chapter 1097: Chapter 1096: Whose Wife???
Last time, because Gu Tong felt her personal strength was lacking, she was feeling despondent and casually grabbed Yan Lishan, using him as a test dummy to try out her skills. Yan Lishan innocently became the unlucky victim, and just that once was enough to make him feel lingering fear.
Even now, whenever he sees Gu Tong, he immediately remembers that day and warns himself not to stir up trouble, fearing Gu Tong might suddenly challenge him to a spar...
Meeting someone from the same hometown in a foreign land feels exceptionally warm; on top of that, being comrades themselves made a certain deputy instructor exceptionally cheerful. He said, "Madam..."
Perhaps because of his happiness, the deputy instructor couldn’t control his emotions, and the word "Madam" slipped out, leaving everyone around a bit stunned.
Madam???
Whose madam???
Could it be Gu Tong???
Yan Lishan was curious and couldn’t hold back. He even forgot about the beating he took last time. He stretched out his head and asked in surprise, "Sis, you got married?"
Gu Tong is not very old and doesn’t appear to be married. If no one mentioned it, others would think she was a budding rose in the Academy.
"Um... you didn’t know..." The deputy instructor was somewhat embarrassed.
Since they had previously had a hidden marriage, he instinctively assumed they hadn’t announced it to everyone, resulting in him unintentionally revealing it as soon as he arrived at Shoucheng, and now he felt like he’d caused trouble.
Gu Tong blinked and said, "What’s so surprising about getting married."
Even though Gu Tong has just reached the legal marriage age, she is a grown woman, and getting married is a natural thing. Besides, marriage is a personal affair, so why should others interfere?
From this perspective, there isn’t really anything shocking about it.
"It’s quite shocking," Yan Lishan seriously said. "Maybe our two Academies have different situations, because in Shoucheng Academy, the general population consists mainly of single men of older age, and very few have started families."
As trainees, especially specialized trainees, the job sounds dangerous, so most women wouldn’t choose this profession to marry into recklessly. After all, it’s a life-long matter.
Moreover, their usual training is intense, and tasks are numerous; they’re usually busy working on missions all over, leaving no time for romance.
Fortunately, the Academy is quite humane. Once someone reaches a certain age, leadership takes their personal life into consideration, even proactively arranging introductions and match-making events, so there’s no need to worry about these issues.
The deputy instructor coughed and quickly explained, "It’s the same in the East District; early marriages are also quite rare. But when it comes to fate, it’s unpredictable. If it’s meant to be, you could meet from a thousand miles away, but if not, you won’t even encounter them face to face. When you meet the right person, why not get married? Now that’s true love!"
Having the deputy instructor here is great; they don’t have to worry about many issues, as the deputy instructor is always quick to answer.
He fulfilled his deputy position fully, responsibly, and wholeheartedly, without any flaws.
"Oh, so that’s how it is..." Yan Lishan nodded in agreement, finding the deputy instructor’s words reasonable. He blinked mischievously and asked, "So did you marry a trainee too? Is this person exceedingly talented, well-read, and skilled in martial arts? Otherwise, how could they possibly keep up with you?"
Gu Tong: "..."
Qiao Chenyi: "..."
The deputy instructor: "..."
What do you mean by ’keeping up with you’? Do you have to consider eliminating evils or taming monsters when getting married!
Do you think she’s a monster, oh come on!
Gu Tong glared at Yan Lishan, wanting to say something but swallowing her words. If it weren’t for Li Yan being here, Gu Tong would definitely have slapped him.
