Chapter 593 My heart is small; it can't hold many people.
"You really don't know?" Xiao Yunfeng deliberately leaned close to her ear, and the moment his breath brushed against her earlobe, he clearly felt her stiffen.
He had just noticed that her earlobes were particularly sensitive.
Su Jin felt a chill run down her spine, but she tried her best to keep it in check so that he wouldn't notice anything amiss.
You jerk, just talk to her, why are you flirting with her?
"I really don't know."
"Because I was jealous."
When Xiao Yunfeng uttered those six words, Su Jin even wondered if she had misheard.
She stared at him with wide eyes.
"What did you say?"
Xiao Yunfeng repeated it very seriously, "Because I was jealous. Who asked you to plead for Zhou Zhenxing?"
Looking at his mournful expression, Su Jin felt that she must be dreaming.
Even if he were truly jealous, he wouldn't say it so directly.
She couldn't resist pinching her leg hard, and the real pain made her look horrified.
"You mean you're angry with me because I pleaded for Zhou Zhenxing?"
Over the past few days, she had thought of many reasons, but this was the only one she hadn't considered.
Xiao Yunfeng nodded directly.
He didn't want their cold war to continue, and he was willing to be the one to back down first.
Su Jin was both amused and exasperated, but she also felt his concern for her.
The next second, she cupped his face in her hands, allowing him to clearly see her seriousness and earnestness.
“It’s not for him, but because a letter came from his family saying that his mother is seriously ill. I had amnesia when I was in Daliushu Village, and his parents took care of me. Now that the old lady is dying, I just want her to have a chance to see her son one last time.”
Xiao Yunfeng never expected it to be like this, and the knot in his heart was immediately untied.
"Why didn't you tell me sooner?"
If she had told him about it from the beginning, he wouldn't have been angry for so long.
"How could I have known that the dignified Brigade Commander Xiao would be so petty?"
This is absolutely what Su Jin truly thinks.
Xiao Yunfeng tightened his grip on her, as if he wanted to meld her into his very bones.
Because I care, I can't be magnanimous.
"I thought you had another man in your heart."
He really fell for her.
Su Jin felt his heartbeat and hugged him back. "Actually, my heart is very small and can't hold too many people."
When Xiao Yunfeng heard her words, his heart trembled violently.
"So, who's in your heart?"
A sense of tension arose spontaneously, and I held my breath, waiting for her answer.
"In my heart..."
Ring ring ring!
The landline rang at an inopportune moment, interrupting the most important part of what Su Jin was about to say.
Xiao Yunfeng and Su Jin exchanged a glance. Although they were both annoyed that the phone call had come at such a convenient time, they both chose to pause for the time being.
"Hello, this is Xiao Yunfeng."
Back at his desk, Xiao Yunfeng transformed once again into the cold and rational Brigade Commander Xiao.
Su Jin quickly composed herself and, without waiting for Xiao Yunfeng to finish his call, headed straight for the door.
Xiao Yunfeng knew, of course, that she was going to run away again, but this time he wasn't worried at all. Although he hadn't heard her say it herself, he was completely certain of her feelings.
"Okay, I'll be right there."
After hanging up the phone, Su Jin was nowhere to be seen in the office.
The next second, Xiao Yunfeng opened the office door with high spirits, his good mood undisguised even by the moonlight.
