Chapter 80 Ruan Mumu & Qiao Tinghao
Ruan Mumu was surprised by her brother's efficiency. The next morning, she scanned the room with her divine sense and found that the items she needed for military training had been prepared.
"Brother, brother, the training materials are ready." After hearing the news, Ruan Mumu excitedly ran to Qiao Tinghao's yard, wanting to share the good news with him.
Ruan Mumu quickly pushed open the door to Qiao Tinghao's room and rushed into his bedroom. Qiao Tinghao, who was changing clothes in the inner room, was so startled by Ruan Mumu's sudden intrusion that his underwear almost fell down.
Ruan Mumu screamed in fright. Qiao Tinghao quickly pulled up his underwear and covered Ruan Mumu's mouth with his hand, afraid that her scream would frighten the elderly couple next door.
Qiao Tinghao hadn't had time to put on his clothes, and his bare upper body was facing Ruan Mumu.
When Ruan Mumu realized what was happening, her face instantly turned bright red, wishing she could disappear into the ground. She struggled to break free from Qiao Tinghao's grip on her hands, shyly wanting to run away.
Looking at Ruan Mumu's shy expression, Qiao Tinghao felt a pang of emotion. He gently released his hand from Ruan Mumu's mouth and said softly, "I'm sorry, I was just too nervous."
Ruan Mumu blushed and nodded, saying somewhat embarrassedly, "It's okay, I was too impulsive."
Qiao Tinghao's lips curled up slightly, revealing a faint smile, and he said with a hint of teasing, "You must have seen plenty of shirtless guys in military school, right? Why are you making such a fuss over something so small?"
Upon hearing this, Ruan Mumu couldn't help but respond with a hint of annoyance, "Isn't it all because of your pants..." However, as soon as she said it, she realized that she seemed to have said something wrong and quickly stopped talking.
At this moment, Qiao Tinghao realized that it was not appropriate to continue teasing Ruan Mumu, so he said softly, "Go to the outer room and wait for a moment. I will come over after I change my clothes."
Ruan Mumu nodded obediently, then turned and left the dormitory, sitting down in the outer room. She quickly poured herself a glass of water and drank it down without hesitation, as if that could extinguish the burning flame in her heart. The moment she saw Qiao Tinghao shirtless, Ruan Mumu suddenly felt her past fantasies about him resurface. Since learning that they weren't actually related by blood, the extinguished flame of hope in her heart had been rekindled.
"Girl, what are you thinking about? You seem so engrossed in thought." Qiao Tinghao gently patted Ruan Mumu's head and asked.
Ruan Mumu blushed slightly, then brushed his hand away and said, "My older brother has prepared all the supplies for military training. That's really fast. The other supplies we need should be ready soon too. Let's focus on preparing for the training for now."
When Qiao Tinghao heard that the supplies for military training had been prepared, he couldn't help but feel a surge of admiration and exclaimed, "Your older brother is really efficient! I love this speed. This way, we can set up the training grounds today and start intensive training first thing tomorrow morning."
Ruan Mumu replied with a smile, "Yes, my older brother is always reliable. But I can only help for two days at most. I have a lot of things to take care of. After all, making money is my duty, and training is your task!"
Qiao Tinghao nodded understandingly and said, "Okay, once you've arranged things in the next couple of days, you can focus on making money. There's not much training to do at the beginning, and later when I bring some people out, they can also be of help." He knew that what Ruan Mumu cared about most at this moment was making money, and he also understood the great responsibility he bore.
“My older brother got those daily necessities, and the market he’s targeting is the wealthy. Ordinary people can’t afford them right now. I need to make money first, so please take care of the training!” Ruan Mumu patted Qiao Tinghao’s shoulder forcefully, as if entrusting him with an important task.
"Don't worry! Those years of schooling weren't for nothing, we were outstanding graduates." Qiao Tinghao said with some pride.
Ruan Mumu smiled with satisfaction, feeling very gratified by Qiao Tinghao's understanding.
She knew she couldn't be involved in training all the time, but she believed Qiao Tinghao was capable of leading the team to complete the mission.
Since arriving here, Qiao Tinghao seems to have become a different person. In Ruan Mumu's eyes, he used to be the epitome of "coldness," but now he is completely different.
She asked curiously, "How come you've changed so much? You used to be known for being aloof in school. I heard several girls confessed their feelings to you, and you rejected them all without hesitation, and your attitude was very cold. But look at you now, where is that coldness?" Ruan Mumu said half-jokingly.
Upon hearing this, Qiao Tinghao smiled slightly and replied earnestly, "Things are different now than before. Now, I can only survive here by relying on you. If I were to be as indifferent to you as before, I'm afraid I wouldn't even have enough to eat. After all, I can't be so rude to my savior, right?"
After saying that, he gave Ruan Mumu a mischievous smile.
"Sigh, a thirteen-year-old body housing a twenty-something soul, it's just so bizarre." Ruan Mumu sighed softly.
"Isn't this a perfect opportunity to do the things you regretted before again? Girl, what was your biggest regret when you were a child?" Qiao Tinghao suddenly became very curious about what Ruan Mumu's biggest regret was when she was a child.
Ruan Mumu tilted her head and thought for a moment, seemingly without any regrets. Her biggest regret was dying of illness right after graduation. Of course, her biggest regret was not having the chance to confess to the senior she had secretly loved for three years. She wondered if this was a special opportunity sent to her by fate, allowing her to make up for the regrets of her past life.
"Then do you have any regrets?" Ruan Mumu asked in return.
"Well, I do have a regret. Would you like to hear it?" Qiao Tinghao asked Ruan Mumu with a smile.
"Of course I want to hear it! Tell me quickly." Ruan Mumu smiled with great interest.
"My biggest regret is that I've always wanted to find a girl who helped me, but unfortunately I didn't even have a chance to ask her name, and I can't remember what she looks like. I said back then that I would definitely pay back the money I borrowed from her," Qiao Tinghao said with a face full of regret.
"Oh, tell me about it!"
"The day I arrived in Liangcheng to register for military school, I had my money and phone stolen on the bus. A girl lent me two hundred yuan, and I promised to pay her back. Unfortunately, she left without leaving any information." Qiao Tinghao seemed to be recalling something.
