Chapter 367 We all have the same idea
Su Jin only knew that Xiao Yunfeng was not in the military region, but she did not know that he left on that day.
They chatted for a bit that night, but he didn't say anything.
Seeing Su Jin's silence, Shi Kang immediately realized something.
"Commander Xiao probably didn't want you to worry."
Su Jin nodded noncommittally.
Shi Kang took the initiative to change the subject, "I've been wanting to talk to you for a while, and now that we've run into each other, let's go to your office and talk."
Su Jin quietly followed in his footsteps.
This was Su Jin's third time in this office, and she seemed much calmer this time compared to the previous two times.
Shi Kang first gestured for her to sit down, and then personally poured her a glass of water.
Su Jin immediately stood up and thanked him, "Thank you, Commander."
"Relax. Don't think of me as the regimental commander, just think of me as one of your elders," Shi Kang said gently.
Su Jin nodded obediently.
Shi Kang continued, "I've been keeping an eye on your performance in the action team these past few days, and to be honest, your performance has really exceeded my expectations."
Su Jin just looked at him.
"I didn't expect you to not only persevere to the end, but also perform so well," Shi Kang replied affirmatively.
The list of selected teams has been finalized; only the final announcement remains.
After he finished speaking, Su Jin humbly said, "I just did my best."
“That’s more like it! I had doubts about your motives for joining the action team before, but it seems I was overthinking it.” Shi Kang subtly shifted the topic to what he cared about.
Su Jin then said, "Does the commander think that I joined the action team for Zhou Zhenxing's sake?"
Shi Kang was surprised that she said it so casually, and he didn't know how to continue the conversation.
Ever since he learned Su Jin's true identity and that she had joined the action team, he had been feeling uneasy.
After all, it was clear that Zhou Zhenxing had wronged her in their divorce.
If she truly still harbors feelings for Zhou Zhenxing, then letting her stay would be the biggest mistake of all.
Su Jin said with utmost solemnity, "Commander, I joined the army not because of Zhou Zhenxing, but to fulfill my parents' expectations."
Shi Kang was slightly taken aback, clearly surprised.
Su Jin deliberately slowed down her speech and explained very seriously, "My marriage to Zhou Zhenxing was due to some unforeseen circumstances. At the time, I had amnesia and didn't remember many things. Later, after I returned to the family compound, I gradually remembered some things."
"I remember when my parents were still alive, their greatest wish was to see me, like them, wear a military uniform and defend my country!"
Shi Kang was shocked by her words. Thinking of the heroic sacrifice of Su Guoan and his wife, he felt an overwhelming sense of respect and sorrow.
At this moment, his gaze toward Su Jin became even more kind and gentle.
"I see. If your parents are watching from heaven, they would be very pleased to see you now."
After our conversation, even if Su Jin's performance in the action team was terrible, let alone outstanding, he would never let her leave.
Su Jin took in his emotional shifts, then suddenly sighed and murmured to herself, "But the commander's thoughts are also other people's thoughts. He also thinks that I joined the army for this reason."
Her voice was soft, but loud enough for Shi Kang to hear clearly.
