Chapter 562 How did you know?
Zhou Zhenxing returned to the company commander's dormitory and began packing his bedding and luggage.
He's just a regular private now, so naturally he can't stay here any longer.
"Instructor, which class am I in?"
Liu Wengao's face tightened. "Zhenxing, we can put this aside for now. I have something urgent to tell you."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Zhenxing scoffed, "In my current state, what urgent matter could I possibly have?"
He was just a lowly private.
Liu Wengao said with difficulty, "You need to be mentally prepared. Your mother's health isn't very good, so you'd better go back as soon as possible."
Zhou Zhenxing abruptly stopped what he was doing, his voice instantly losing control, "What did you say? What happened to my mother?"
Liu Wengao didn't want to provoke him now, but this matter really couldn't be delayed.
"I don't know the specifics, but it seems your mother is sick."
"How did you know? Did you get a letter from home?" Zhou Zhenxing asked impatiently, wanting to know the specifics of his mother's situation.
Liu Wengao stammered, "It was my aunt who sent a message, but that person has already left."
The person who supposedly "carried a message" was actually Su Jin.
Su Jin came to the company early this morning and specifically sought him out.
Tell him that Zhou Zhenxing's mother is seriously ill and ask him to pass on the message.
As for how Su Jin knew, he didn't ask, but it's probably true.
Zhou Zhenxing was having great difficulty breathing. "I'll send a telegram right now!"
Liu Wengao grabbed him, "What's the use of sending a telegram? I've already asked the battalion commander for leave for you, and I've booked your train ticket. Hurry up and pack your things and go back to check on things."
He had missed seeing his father one last time before his father passed away, which was already a lifelong regret. Now he absolutely could not miss his mother.
Zhou Zhenxing was clearly flustered, repeatedly thanking Liu Wengao.
"I'm leaving right now!"
Nothing else matters compared to going home to see my mother.
Military region, office of the top leader.
Zheng Changqing, Han Shizhong, Su Jin, Hu Li, Chai Yi, He Dongjun, Zhuo Bing, and Lin Shan stood nervously among them, waiting for the arrival of the high-ranking leader.
Every second felt incredibly long.
They went from being reserved at the beginning to being unable to stop looking around at everything in the office.
"Captain, I'm a little nervous."
Hu Li spoke in a high-pitched voice, very cautiously.
Zheng Changqing stood ramrod straight, staring straight ahead, motionless. "Don't worry, I'm nervous too."
Who wouldn't be nervous to be personally received by the top leader?
"Captain, is the Chief Commander particularly strict?" Chai Yi asked anxiously.
Anyone who didn't know better would think they weren't there to receive an award, but rather to be punished.
Without the slightest hesitation, Zheng Changqing uttered three words: "I don't know."
"..."
"Do you think I had a private meeting with the top leader?" Zheng Changqing asked matter-of-factly.
Everyone suddenly realized that the captain was just like them in this matter.
At this moment, Su Jin suddenly said, "Don't be too nervous, everyone. In fact, the higher the rank, the more approachable they are."
Her reassuring words instantly drew the attention of the other seven people, who all turned to look at her expectantly and asked, "How did you know?"
Did she meet with the top leader alone?
Su Jin replied in a serious tone, "Just guessing."
All seven people's expressions collapsed.
At that moment, the door finally opened, and everyone's heart jumped into their throats, instinctively putting on their best appearance.
