Chapter 320 Avoiding Suspicion
Su Jin and Qian Wei sat in an inconspicuous spot, engrossed in their meal.
"Sister Jin, let's eat some meat!"
Qian Wei ate with his mouth full of oil, but he didn't forget to call out to Su Jin.
Su Jin had actually eaten most of her food, but they kept piling food onto her plate.
At the enormous long table, only a few of them were truly enjoying their meal.
Although the atmosphere became much more lively, with Xiao Yunfeng and Shi Kang sitting there, no one dared to be too unrestrained.
"Han Shizhong, how many New Years have you spent in the army?" Shi Kang asked with concern.
Han Shizhong was somewhat flattered and immediately put down his chopsticks and stood up.
"Reporting, Commander, the fourth one!"
Shi Kang gestured, "Don't be so reserved, sit down and talk."
"Yes," Han Shizhong replied and sat down again.
Shi Kang's shifty gaze swept around the table. "You've all worked hard in training these past few days!"
"Reporting to the commander, it's no trouble at all!"
Everyone spoke in unison.
Shi Kang looked at them with a relieved smile, then his gaze fell on the three female soldiers, Meng Jiayi, Chen Fen, and Su Jin.
"Meng Jiayi, Chen Fen, you both did very well too!"
The two were naturally delighted to be personally selected by the group leader.
"How's Su Jin? How are you feeling? Can she keep going?"
As Shi Kang finished asking his question, Xiao Yunfeng's deep gaze followed.
Su Jin, who was suddenly called out, was refusing a large pork knuckle that Qian Wei was offering her.
The two instantly became the focus of everyone's attention.
When Lu Dong, Xu Xiao, and the other instructors saw the mountain of meat and bones piled up in front of Qian Wei, their lips twitched.
This kid is the only one who actually came to have New Year's Eve dinner.
Qian Wei noticed everyone's gaze, blinked, and calmly put the pork knuckle back on his plate.
When asked, Su Jin immediately replied, "Everything is fine, thank you for your concern, Commander."
The more Shi Kang looks at Su Jin, the more he likes her.
He originally thought this girl wouldn't last long in the action team, but after seeing her training records these past few days, he really changed his mind.
It's true what they say: a general's family has no weak soldiers, and a tiger father has no dog daughter!
I believe in you, keep it up!
This statement is undoubtedly the greatest affirmation and encouragement for Su Jin.
Many people around her cast envious glances at her.
After all, to have the leader take notice of someone like that already indicates a promising future.
Su Jin said solemnly, "Thank you, Commander. I will continue to work hard."
While talking to Shi Kang, she clearly felt Xiao Yunfeng's gaze, but forced herself not to pay attention to it.
Because these days, speculation about her relationship with Xiao Yunfeng has never stopped.
On this special night, Xiao Yunfeng came to the action team again. Even if no one dared to say it to his face, it was obvious that some people were gossiping about it.
So what she needs to do now is avoid suspicion!
Shi Kang originally wanted to say something to Guan An, Qian Wei, and Wu Mang, but seeing their nonchalant attitude, he swallowed his words.
These rascals don't deserve praise or encouragement.
When they had almost finished eating, at Xu Xiao's suggestion, everyone started singing to liven up the atmosphere.
Seeing Xiao Yunfeng leave, Su Jin quietly withdrew from the dinner table.
As soon as I reached the entrance of the cafeteria, I saw Xiao Yunfeng standing not far away, seemingly lost in thought, or perhaps waiting for someone.
Once he was sure no one was around, he quickened his pace and walked up to him.
"Uncle, what are you doing standing here?"
It was completely dark outside, and it was chilly.
