Chapter 130 He was still the father in his heart.
The moment he stepped into his home, Sun Heng could no longer hold back his emotions.
"Dad! Why?"
Even on the way back, he kept trying to find a reason for his father's unreasonable behavior today, but he couldn't think of one at all.
Looking at his son's agitated and aggrieved expression, Sun Jianshe knew how much of a blow it had just been to him.
However, he did not do anything wrong!
Are you wondering why I didn't protect you?
Sun Heng stared intently at him, his hands hanging at his sides already clenched into fists.
"yes!"
He wasn't like this before.
Sun Jianshe took a deep breath. "If it were just Guan An and Qian Wei today, I definitely wouldn't interfere and would let you handle it yourselves."
After all, it's a matter concerning the younger generation. As long as it doesn't escalate too much, the elders will probably turn a blind eye.
“I know it’s all because of that Su Jin! Even if she’s a family member of Commander Xiao, you shouldn’t just keep admitting your mistakes!” This is what Sun Heng cares about the most.
More than being beaten and apologizing, what he found unacceptable was his father's subservient demeanor in front of Xiao Yunfeng.
In his heart, his father was the most powerful and the most worthy of admiration.
"Do you think I deliberately made a mistake because I was afraid of Brigade Commander Xiao's status?" Sun Jianshe wasn't angry, but his expression was serious.
Sun Heng pursed his lips, remained silent for a few seconds, and then asked, "Isn't that right?"
"Heh." Sun Jianshe chuckled instead of getting angry. "No matter how capable Xiao Yunfeng is, he's just a brigade commander. If I were afraid of his status, shouldn't I be even more eager to please Qian Wei?"
Qian Guangtao was a division commander, yet he showed no leniency towards Qian Wei.
Sun Heng was slightly taken aback, clearly not having realized this before.
So he was wrong?
"Why is that? I need a reasonable explanation!"
Sun Jianshe's gaze grew increasingly serious as he looked at him. "The reason I asked you to apologize to Su Jin is not because of Brigade Commander Xiao, but because Su Jin's parents were martyrs who sacrificed their lives for the country!"
As he finished speaking, his voice carried an indescribable solemnity.
Sun Heng's pupils contracted sharply for a moment, then he revealed an expression of disbelief and shock.
He certainly understood what his father's words meant.
“His parents sacrificed their lives for the country; they are true heroes. And you were shouting in public, telling him to go home and find his parents. Shouldn’t you be beaten?” At this point, Sun Jianshe also became angry, showing no favoritism towards Sun Heng just because he was his son.
In his opinion, a slap was too lenient!
In this compound, Su Jin is an orphan who lost her parents, but she is also the child of all the soldiers!
So whether it's him or anyone else, even if Su Jin causes a huge disaster, they will unconditionally protect and favor her.
All of Sun Heng's anger vanished, and he finally understood why Guan An and the others had treated Su Jin that way.
The resentment in his heart was gone, and his father was still the same father he knew.
"Dad, if I had known, I definitely wouldn't have said those things."
He had less and less confidence in defending himself, and in the end he almost mumbled the whole thing.
"If you had known and still said those things, would you still be standing here talking to me now! You better know what to do when you see that girl again. Otherwise, I, as your father, won't let you off the hook!"
Sun Jianshe's stern voice not only expressed his attitude but also made his son realize the seriousness of the matter so that he would not make the same mistake again.
