Chapter 666 Seeking Only a Clear Conscience
"What Zhou Zhenxing? I don't know Zhou Zhenxing is in the action team."
After realizing what had happened, Zheng Changqing chose to play dumb.
However, Su Jin's one sentence was enough to make him unable to keep up the act: "Captain, you know I have excellent eyesight. How about we go to the training ground now and confirm it?"
As he spoke, he actually intended to go out.
Zheng Changqing's facial muscles twitched; he knew he couldn't hide it any longer.
"He did come to participate in the selection, but he will be eliminated soon."
He spoke with particular certainty in the second half of his sentence.
Su Jin's brows furrowed tightly.
She had never expected that Zhou Zhenxing would participate in the selection for the action team.
Zheng Changqing carefully observed the changes in her expression.
When Liu Wengao asked Su Jin to persuade Zhou Zhenxing, he had already sensed that something was wrong.
After Su Jin visited, Zhou Zhenxing actually cheered up, which made him feel even more threatened.
This is why he was so resistant to Zhou Zhenxing participating in the selection, because he felt that Zhou Zhenxing's motives were impure and that he was there for Su Jin.
"This has nothing to do with you. You just need to focus on training the first team."
Su Jin ignored his words and instead asked, "So the training plan we've been working on these past few days is all related to Zhou Zhenxing?"
Zheng Changqing immediately looked miserable.
Sometimes being too smart isn't a good thing.
Am I the kind of person who can't separate public and private matters?
Of course, we cannot admit it.
Su Jin nodded seriously, "Yes."
Zheng Changqing's face darkened, and he could only continue to deny it, "Really, no."
"Then why is Zhou Zhenxing still training when everyone in the second team is resting?"
Su Jin looked at him with a gaze that seemed to have seen through everything.
"That was his own choice to do extra practice..." Zheng Changqing hesitated, feeling a little guilty, and couldn't continue. "Okay. Actually, he broke the rules, and I punished him."
What rule did he break?
Zheng Changqing was completely taken aback, never expecting Su Jin to press him so relentlessly.
The disciplinary violation was merely an excuse for him to punish Zhou Zhenxing; of course, he couldn't say it out loud.
"Why are you so concerned about Zhou Zhenxing? Don't tell me you still have feelings for him?"
Is his worst fears about to come true?
If that's the case, he'll have to tell Zhou Zhenxing to pack his things and get out of here immediately!
Faced with Zheng Changqing's tense questioning, Su Jin sighed helplessly.
Whenever she gets involved with Zhou Zhenxing, everyone assumes she still has feelings for him.
So, in the eyes of outsiders, is she really that inseparable from Zhou Zhenxing?
"I only ask to have a clear conscience."
"A clear conscience?" Zheng Changqing didn't understand what she meant.
Su Jin nodded gently, "Zhou Zhenxing and I have had no relationship since the moment we divorced. No matter what you think, I just want to go our separate ways and have nothing to do with each other."
"I inquired about his affairs because I didn't want him to be treated unfairly because of our past relationship. I also didn't want to tarnish the team's reputation because of him, because it's not worth it."
The words "not worth it" made Zheng Changqing pause for a moment, as if he had indeed made a mistake.
“Right now, in my eyes, Zhou Zhenxing is no different from anyone else who came here to participate in the selection, but the captain has made him special.”
What Su Jin wanted to say was that the person who truly cared about Zhou Zhenxing wasn't her, but him.
