Chapter 267 No More Pretending, the Truth Comes Out
evening.
Su Jin, Meng Jiayi, and Chen Fen came out of the bathhouse and were about to return to their dormitory to rest when they saw Zhou Zhenxing coming towards them. The three of them stopped at the same time.
Su Jin's previously relaxed face instantly tensed up.
"Greetings, Your Excellency."
Meng Jiayi and Chen Fen greeted each other first, and then prepared to continue on their way.
"Su Jin, stay behind for a moment."
Zhou Zhenxing's serious gaze was fixed directly on her.
Meng Jiayi and Chen Fen both showed gossipy expressions.
Noticing that the two were lingering, Zhou Zhenxing actually ordered, "You can leave now."
The two reacted instantly and quickly left under his gaze.
Su Jin lowered her eyes, concealing some kind of emotion.
Even without saying a word, Zhou Zhenxing exuded immense pressure at that moment.
For the past few days, he had been restraining himself, waiting for the woman to come to him on her own initiative.
But I never expected this woman to be so calm and collected.
"Would you like to talk here, or in my office?"
He asked, feigning indifference.
Su Jin took a deep breath, knowing that she had no other choice now.
"Let's go to the office."
Without saying a word, Zhou Zhenxing turned and left.
Su Jin followed silently behind him.
Upon entering the office, the first thing Zhou Zhenxing did was to close the door.
Clearly, what they were about to discuss was something they couldn't let others hear.
He stared intently at Su Jin's face, trying to compose himself.
Su Jin stood there quietly and calmly, letting him scrutinize her.
“Su Jin, you’re very capable. I underestimated you before.” Zhou Zhenxing’s first words were full of hostility and sarcasm.
Su Jin understood his meaning, but chose to remain silent.
Even though several days had passed, Zhou Zhenxing still couldn't accept the fact that she had joined the action team.
Why did you come here?
Although he had already guessed the absurd reason, he still wanted to hear her say it herself.
Su Jin looked up and met his excited gaze.
Why can't I come here?
Instead of answering, she asked a question in return.
In fact, she had already anticipated this scene when she first saw that Zhou Zhenxing was a bishop.
However, Zhou Zhenxing's reaction was even more intense than she had expected.
Zhou Zhenxing laughed in anger.
Su Jin looked at his smile expressionlessly, "You think I'm not fit to be a soldier, right?"
After all, in their hearts, she was the most useless person.
This was exactly what Zhou Zhenxing was thinking. He had already said "yes," but when he met Su Jin's unwavering gaze, he changed his mind.
"Joining the army isn't as simple as you think, and the military isn't a place for you. Lan Yu had already arranged a very good job for you, but you left without even saying goodbye. Is that the right thing to do?"
Su Jin scoffed, "We have no relationship after the divorce. Why should I say goodbye to you when I leave?"
Zhou Zhenxing was speechless after being rebuked by her, staring at her in disbelief.
For a moment, he even felt like he didn't recognize her anymore.
"When did you become so sharp-tongued? You weren't like this before!"
She used to be obedient and docile, always listening to him and his family.
But now, she seems to be covered in thorns, making her impossible to approach.
Su Jin rolled her eyes and gave up pretending.
“Zhou Zhenxing, you’re wrong. This is who I really am.”
