Chapter 153 Home Visit

One week later.

Military family compound, evening.

Shi Kang appeared at Qian Guangtao's doorstep.

Before getting out of the car, I took a deep breath to prepare myself mentally before pushing open the car door.

In the living room, Qian Guangtao sat upright on the sofa, looking expressionlessly at Qian Wei standing in front of him.

"I've already spoken to the police station, so you should go there to report for duty at the beginning of next month."

It wasn't a discussion, it was a notification.

Qian Wei immediately looked miserable. "Dad, I don't want to be a policeman."

Qian Guangtao said domineeringly, "The era of democracy in our family is over. From today onwards, your life will be under my control!"

He didn't want to make things difficult for his son, but the boy was simply hopeless.

I'm about to turn 22, and I'm still a complete failure. If this continues, I'll really become a useless person.

Qian Wei could tell that her father was determined this time, so she tried to force out tears, hoping to move her father to change his mind by being pitiful.

But before she could even squeeze out a tear, the guard outside came in.

"Commander, Regiment Commander Shi wants to see you."

"Let him in."

Qian Guangtao immediately suppressed his disappointed expression and threw a sentence at Qian Wei, "Go away."

Qian Wei turned around dejectedly, preparing to return to his room.

Shi Kang quickly walked in. "Commander Qian, I'm sorry to bother you."

"No. Why are you here at this hour? Is there something you need?" Qian Guangtao asked as he greeted him.

Shi Kang nodded. "Something's up."

Qian Guangtao gestured for him to sit down. He was about to call his wife, who was in the kitchen, to pour him some water, but when he looked up, he saw Qian Wei, who had already walked to the door of the room.

"Qian Wei, go get some water."

Qian Wei had no choice but to return to the living room.

"Commander Shi, what do you want to see me about?" Qian Guangtao went straight to the point.

Shi Kang went over his prepared remarks in his mind, making sure there were no problems, before speaking, "Commander Qian, Brigade Commander Xiao mentioned to you that I was planning to form a special operations team, right?"

Qian Guangtao gave an affirmative answer, "Yunfeng said so. Have you encountered any difficulties? Then please tell us, and the division will fully support your work."

Hearing this, Shi Kang felt relieved. Just then, Qian Wei brought over a freshly brewed cup of tea.

He sized up Qian Wei's chubby figure, and thinking of the kid's reputation, a look of hesitation and helplessness appeared on his face.

But it only took a second before he regained his composure.

"I'm here today for a home visit."

Home visits for recruiting soldiers are something that a regimental commander like him should never do, but Xiao Yunfeng wanted these soldiers because of their special status, so he had to make the trip.

Qian Guangtao was slightly taken aback. He understood the meaning of "home visit" at all, but he didn't understand why Shi Kang came to his home to do a "home visit".

Seeing his confusion, Shi Kang didn't mince words and said directly, "Commander Qian, I want to recruit Qian Wei to join this special operations team."

This was something Qian Guangtao had never expected. Before today, he thought that the action team Shi Kang wanted to form would select elites from the military.

Qian Wei reacted even more strongly, dropping the teapot he was holding to the ground.

With a snap, it shattered into pieces.

The water in the teapot splashed everywhere, and he instinctively cried out, then jumped around on the ground, afraid of being scalded by the hot water.

"..."

Qian Guangtao and Shi Kang both frowned when they saw his flustered and helpless state after being startled by a pot of tea.
