New Year's Eve.

Su Jin did not go out to party with her teammates, but stayed behind with the action team alone.

The firecrackers outside were making a lively noise, but she felt unusually calm inside.

She thought back to this time last year when Xiao Yunfeng made a special trip to the cafeteria to eat dumplings with them.

She then remembered that before the accident, Xiao Yunfeng had made a promise to her that they would travel together during the Chinese New Year holiday.

Now everything has vanished like a bubble.

Although spending New Year's Eve alone was lonely, she had been alone ever since her parents passed away.

"This is fine too."

In the quiet dormitory, she murmured softly...

On the eighteenth day of the first lunar month, Su Jin received a phone call from Wu Mang.

The engagement is in three days, and she absolutely must attend.

Su Jin, Guan An, and Qian Wei all naturally took leave.

In the evening, Guan An came over specifically to go home to her family compound, but she refused.

"I'll go there first thing tomorrow morning."

"Why? Does the action team have training missions tonight?" Guan An asked suspiciously. "Er Mang's house must be very lively tonight. Let's go and join in the fun."

Su Jin shook her head again, "I have something to do tonight, you and Fatty can go. But tomorrow is Er Mang's big day, so don't stay up too late."

Guan An frowned and looked at her suspiciously.

"Sister Jin, are you hiding something from us?"

She stayed in the army during the Lunar New Year holiday, even though she could have gone back to celebrate the New Year with everyone.

"Did you have a falling out with Commander Xiao?"

That was the first thing that came to his mind; otherwise, why wouldn't she have wanted to go back earlier?

Su Jin calmly replied, "You're overthinking it. I really do have something to do tonight."

Guan An felt something was off, but he also knew that if Su Jin refused to talk, he would definitely not get anything out of her.

"Okay. But you really have to come early tomorrow morning."

Su Jin nodded and watched him leave.

Guan An was right; she didn't want to go back early because she didn't want to see Xiao Yunfeng.

If I go back, I'll definitely have to go home that night, and then it won't be possible to avoid it even if I want to.

And she did indeed have other things to do tonight.

"Su Jin, really, it's enough that you came, why did you have to buy anything!"

Li Sihua warmly welcomed Su Jin, who was standing outside the door, inside.

Su Jin calmly surveyed the living room environment.

Located in the suburbs, it is quite a distance from the military area, but it is quiet and the surrounding environment is very nice.

Moreover, this is clearly an old house, a typical courtyard house, with everything inside and outside the courtyard well-maintained.

Wearing casual clothes, Li Sihua appeared less serious and cautious than a head nurse, and more gentle and approachable.

"Old Zhao, Su Jin is here."

Su Jin's gaze followed Li Sihua's voice and landed on the man in the living room.

Even without an introduction, she knew that this was Li Sihua's lover, Zhao Fenglin, the chief of staff of the Third Army and Fourth Division.

Completely different from what she had imagined, this chief of staff showed no airs of authority whatsoever, and was incredibly easygoing.

"I've often heard your Aunt Sihua mention you, and today I'm finally meeting you. You really are a beautiful girl."

"Greetings, Commander."

Su Jin spoke respectfully.

Zhao Fenglin immediately waved his hand, "We're at home now, so there's no need for formalities. Just call me Uncle Zhao."
