Chapter 218 A Hot Potato
"Commander Shi, why are you so agitated? It seems I've missed something?" Xiao Yunfeng's deep gaze lingered between the two.
A layer of cold sweat instantly broke out on Shi Kang's forehead.
Now that Su Jin's identity has been basically confirmed, and based on what Xiao Yunfeng just said, Su Jin is probably hiding a lot from him, so he might not even know about the divorce.
I heard that Xiao Yunfeng dotes on this girl and treats her like his own sister. If he finds out that she was being bullied like that, he will probably be furious.
"I only met this girl once, so she probably didn't even think about it."
After quickly weighing the pros and cons, he chose to avoid trouble.
Xiao Yunfeng looked at him and paused for two seconds.
Although it was only a short two seconds, it was enough to put immense pressure on Shi Kang.
Two seconds later, Xiao Yunfeng said unhurriedly, "Is that so? I thought Commander Shi and Xiao Jin had something going on that I didn't know."
For the first time, Shi Kang guiltily avoided his gaze, chuckling awkwardly, "Hehe, how could that be? Commander Xiao, what's your relationship with her?"
We are still cautiously confirming this.
"I am her uncle."
Xiao Yunfeng's answer confirmed Shi Kang's suspicions.
"Xiao Jin, even though you know Commander Shi, you can't be so rude. Greet him."
Xiao Yunfeng did not investigate the two people's unusual behavior at all.
Su Jin felt a huge weight lifted off her shoulders, and her whole body instantly relaxed.
Regardless of what Xiao Yunfeng was really up to, as long as she wasn't exposed on the spot, she could pretend nothing had happened.
"Greetings, Commander Shi."
Shi Kang immediately adopted an attitude of not knowing her well and got to the point, "Your name is Su Jin, right? Brigade Commander Xiao said you want to participate in the action team selection?"
Su Jin nodded, giving an affirmative answer, "Yes."
Shi Kang continued, "How old are you?"
“I’ll be 22 in just over two months,” Su Jin answered precisely.
“Age isn’t a problem. But I’d like to ask you, why do you want to join the army? Being a soldier is very tough, and you could get injured at any time,” Shi Kang said with a serious expression.
This is not alarmist; it is the truth.
Moreover, what he was most worried about was that the reason Su Jin requested to join the army at this age, and even came to his regiment, was because she still had feelings for Zhou Zhenxing.
Su Jin replied calmly and confidently, "I want to become like my parents!"
Shi Kang was clearly taken aback; he really hadn't expected her to answer like that.
As the children of martyrs, this is what we should do!
Moreover, her expression at this moment was so resolute that no one could question her.
It seems there's no way to change this.
"Since Commander Xiao is willing to part with it, then I have no other questions."
Xiao Yunfeng smiled slightly, "Then I'll have to trouble Commander Shi to take good care of my child from now on."
His tone wasn't harsh, but those last few words were a deliberate emphasis, a tacit reminder and exhortation.
Shi Kang could easily understand, and thinking that he had just informed Zhou Zhenxing to be the initial instructor for the action team, he was really overwhelmed.
Moreover, he is not sure what Xiao Yunfeng's true intentions are.
If the brigade commander tries to force Su Jin to become a member of the action team, the team's work will likely be impossible to carry out normally in the future.
At this moment, Su Jin was a hot potato in his eyes.
Whether to keep it or throw it away, it's a dilemma for him!
