Chapter 845: Chapter 0845: Offering Help When There’s No Need, Up to No Good or Thievery

Ye Qiu returned to the Peach Blossom Source Villa Community, went upstairs to take a shower, changed into another set of clothes, and then drove back to the Jin University Campus.

During the past two days of military training, Ye Qiu hadn’t been present, and Wu Shuang didn’t ask much either.

When Ye Qiu arrived at Jin University, it was about lunchtime. He planned to practice military boxing in the afternoon. As he called Li Shen and Zhu Zhiming, he found out that the two were still asleep in their dorm room.

Thinking of these two, Ye Qiu shook his head.

He asked them to meet him in Dining Hall No. 1 and then called Luo Yang, learning that Luo Yang had just returned to his dorm to take a shower.

Ye Qiu headed to Dining Hall No. 1, sat down there, and waited for about ten minutes before he saw Li Shen and Zhu Zhiming arrive.

"Brother Qiu, you’re awesome! You even taught that instructor a lesson!"

This was something that happened three days ago, and Li Shen only brought it up now.

Over the past two days, Li Shen hadn’t seen Ye Qiu around. Though he noticed Ye Qiu logging in to play games, he had no idea what Ye Qiu had been up to.

"That’s nothing."

Ye Qiu knew that after this incident, no one would dare bother Liu Lingxiu anymore, which was precisely the effect he desired.

When Luo Yang, Zhou Shaohui, and Ning Yun arrived, they greeted Ye Qiu, saying, "Brother Qiu, we haven’t seen you these past few days."

"I had some things to take care of."

Ye Qiu handed over his meal card and asked Zhou Shaohui and the others to get food. Meanwhile, Luo Yang quietly said, "There was a big news incident in the city this morning, but now it seems to be under a lockdown."

Luo Yang showed him a video on his phone, which depicted a group of bandits intercepting cars and kidnapping people at a busy intersection. The video had likely been captured by passersby on the scene and uploaded online.

However, fearing public panic, the government had locked down the news.

"Indeed, it’s pretty serious!"

Ye Qiu said flatly.

Once Zhou Shaohui and the others brought back lunch, Ye Qiu ate with them before heading back to the dormitory to rest for a while. Then he changed into his military uniform and returned to the training ground to continue practicing military boxing.

In truth, a week had flown by quickly, and another week of military training would mark its end.

Wu Shuang had already taught the full set of military boxing moves, leaving the students to focus on improving the flow and aesthetics of their routines to aim for a good ranking in the evaluations at the conclusion of the training.

Of course, rankings weren’t important to Wu Shuang, so he wasn’t as strict or concerned as the other instructors.

His primary purpose in coming was to fulfill an assignment from Old Cao to interact with Ye Qiu.

Through these days of interaction, Wu Shuang had realized that Ye Qiu was far more capable than he had initially imagined.

When Ye Qiu and Luo Yang returned to the training ground, a large number of male and female students had already arrived, seated on folding chairs beneath the trees.

As soon as Ye Qiu arrived, Leng Xue noticed him.

But Ye Qiu didn’t look her way.

Over the past few days, Leng Xue had been strategizing about how to get closer to Ye Qiu. She realized that her attempt on the first day of school, deliberately bumping into him, hadn’t brought her any closer.

She had discovered that Ye Qiu was starkly different from other boys. While most of them would try to get on her good side because of her beauty, Ye Qiu showed no such intentions. From the first time she purposefully bumped into him until now, he remained aloof and cold, distant as ever.

Could it be that he saw through her act?

Leng Xue felt that was impossible; she was certain she hadn’t given herself away.

"Brother Qiu, you’ve secured a spot in the top five on the popularity leaderboard!"

Luo Yang exclaimed.

"I don’t care about that."

Ye Qiu had no interest in the popularity leaderboard. He just wanted to live a low-key college life, enjoying a lifestyle he hadn’t been able to experience before.

Although the Heavenly Court Imperial Medical Bureau had an Academic Faction—where Su Luoluo’s father was a prominent figure—that faction resembled the student training model of universities.

However, this was the human world, fundamentally different from the Heavenly Court Imperial Medical Bureau.

As Wu Shuang arrived, he glanced at Ye Qiu, and then the afternoon’s military boxing practice began.

By the afternoon, they had completed learning the entire military boxing set. What remained was refining the fluidity of the movements and capturing the essence of the martial style.

Of course, expecting significant results in just half a month would be unrealistic.

After practicing for an hour and a half, they took a break. Ye Qiu was about to ask Zhou Shaohui to buy some water when he unexpectedly saw Leng Xue approach with a bottle of water. In front of gawking students, both female and male, Leng Xue opened the bottle and said, "This is for you."

"No need."

Ye Qiu thought, "When someone acts overly kind without reason, there’s often a hidden agenda." Even if the person in question was a girl, Ye Qiu felt Leng Xue was oddly suspicious and had no intention of engaging with her.

Other boys looked on enviously, astonished that Leng Xue, the campus beauty, personally brought water to Ye Qiu, only to have him reject her outright.

"Squad 1, go buy water for the rest of us. Don’t forget to grab a bottle for the instructor too."

Ye Qiu handed fifty yuan to Zhou Shaohui, who headed to the nearest convenience store.

Leng Xue stood there, still holding the rejected water bottle, feeling a bit awkward. She asked Ye Qiu, "Do you think I poisoned it or something?"

"Who knows with you?"

Leng Xue drank the water in one gulp, glaring at Ye Qiu with a mix of indignation and frustration.

But Ye Qiu remained indifferent, entirely ignoring her presence.

If he were truly drawn to beautiful girls, there were plenty besides Leng Xue—like Liu Lingxiu and Li Qianqian.

In terms of temperament, Leng Xue fell short compared to Li Qianqian.

After Zhou Shaohui returned with chilled water, Ye Qiu took a bottle and handed it to Wu Shuang. Wu Shuang accepted it, and Ye Qiu asked, "Instructor Wu, have you made your decision?"

Wu Shuang understood Ye Qiu’s question: Was he going to choose shares or the one million Euros?

Frankly, Wu Shuang hadn’t expected Ye Qiu to be this generous.

With one million Euros, Wu Shuang could lead a very comfortable life and even afford a home in Jinling.

"What do you think?"

"Of course, the shares are better!"

Wu Shuang already knew that Jinling’s hottest restaurant, the Imperial Cuisine Restaurant, was owned by Ye Qiu. Now, Ye Qiu was preparing to open a second branch and offering him ten percent shares. Wu Shuang saw it clearly as a lucrative gift.

The one million Euros might seem substantial now, but it wasn’t much more than the price of a single home. On the other hand, if the second restaurant turned out to be as successful as the first, it promised steady wealth—making money by the day would be normal.

"This gift is too generous; I feel embarrassed accepting it!"

Wu Shuang admitted.

At his current stage in life, he didn’t urgently need money. He was still unmarried without a family to support. His military salary and benefits were more than sufficient to cover his living expenses, including his leisure habits like drinking and smoking. As for his parents, they had their own pensions and didn’t require any financial support from him.
