Chapter 152: In what capacity should we interfere?
Liu Wengao looked at Zhou Zhenxing with some concern.
This failure was a huge blow to Zhou Zhenxing, and he has been in a state of dejection ever since he arrived at the hospital.
Actually, Liu Wengao could understand him.
Zhou Zhenxing's life has been incredibly smooth sailing since he joined the army.
His personal abilities are among the best in the entire regiment, and he has always been valued and nurtured by the regiment. At a young age, he has already become the company commander, and his future is limitless.
It should be noted that, without any background and relying solely on his personal abilities, he was already considered a prodigy.
That's why he was more arrogant and proud than anyone else, and of course, he had the right to be.
But just yesterday, his proud strength was trampled underfoot by another person. How could he accept such a cruel reality?
So since yesterday, he has been trying to persuade him, not wanting him to get stuck in a rut, but with little effect.
Zhuo Lanyu also noticed that something was wrong with Zhou Zhenxing and immediately said, "Brother Zhou, please don't belittle yourself like that. You are the best!"
Zhou Zhenxing gave a bitter laugh. "I used to be a frog in a well, completely ignorant of my own limitations. But the moment I fought with Commander Xiao, I realized how wrong I was. My little tricks were nothing but self-humiliation in front of him!"
Zhuo Lanyu frowned deeply. Having known him for so long, this was the first time she had seen him so disheartened, as if all his confidence had been shattered.
An uneasy gaze fell upon Liu Wengao.
Liu Wengao shook his head helplessly.
Zhou Zhenxing said weakly, "You guys go out first, I want to be alone for a while."
After saying that, he closed his eyes.
Zhuo Lanyu was even more worried, but Liu Wengao stopped her with a look, and then they walked out of the ward together.
"Instructor, this matter absolutely cannot end like this!"
After coming out, Zhuo Lanyu was even more indignant.
Liu Wengao's expression turned serious. "Comrade Zhuo Lanyu, this is ultimately Company Commander Zhou's own business. I think we should respect Company Commander Zhou's wishes."
Zhuo Lanyu sensed his attitude and questioned him with dissatisfaction, "Are we just going to let it go like this?"
"Do you intend to hold Brigade Commander Xiao responsible? Besides, in a hand-to-hand combat contest, no one can guarantee the other won't get hurt. Company Commander Zhou isn't a sore loser. If you really make a scene, you'll make Company Commander Zhou a laughingstock!"
Liu Wengao did exaggerate a bit, but his words, though crude, were reasonable; he simply wanted to prevent her from acting on emotion.
Zhuo Lanyu finally fell silent.
"Besides, in what capacity are you interfering in Company Commander Zhou's affairs?" Liu Wengao retorted.
Zhou Zhenxing had only recently divorced, and although not many people knew about it, the regimental commander and some leaders were aware of it. If she were to speak out now, she would truly put Zhou Zhenxing in the eye of the storm.
These words were a reminder to Zhuo Lanyu, and also an expression of dissatisfaction with the relationship between Zhou Zhenxing and Zhuo Lanyu.
Although Zhou Zhenxing repeatedly emphasized that their relationship was purely comradeship, he had long since sensed that there was something more between them.
Even though they are both single now, as their instructor, he wouldn't stop them, but he definitely couldn't offer his blessings either.
Zhuo Lanyu wasn't stupid; she naturally understood his sarcasm and felt embarrassed.
"Instructor, there's no need to remind me. I'm just speaking up for Company Commander Zhou. Since Company Commander Zhou doesn't want to pursue the matter, I won't make a fool of myself!"
