The moment she arrived home, Gu Qingjiu told Qi Yuefeng—who had been waiting at home—about her passing the selection.
Once Qi Yuefeng heard that Gu Qingjiu had passed the selection, she couldn't hold back her tears. She hugged Gu Qingjiu and sadly said, "Why did you pass?"
Gu Qingjiu was speechless.
She knew that her mother didn't want her to join the military, so she didn't wish for her to pass the selection.
She felt a little guilty, but she could only say, "I'm sorry, Mother, but I really want to join the military."
One day, when she was powerful enough, she wouldn't leave her family for too long anymore.
Hearing that Gu Qingjiu was so determined, Qi Yuefeng couldn't do anything anymore. She wiped her tears, and with a hint of slight sadness in her tone of voice, she said, "Your brother adores you so much. He definitely wouldn't bear to see you join the military. Wait 'till I tell him about it when he comes back!"
