Chapter 492 The Chief Intervened
Su Jin never denied Xiao Yunfeng's kindness to her. "Captain, I'm not stupid, and I understand what you mean. Don't worry, I won't do anything bad to Brigade Commander Xiao."
He solemnly and earnestly assured Zheng Changqing.
As long as Xiao Yunfeng truly had nothing to do with her father's sacrifice.
Zheng Changqing breathed a sigh of relief. It wasn't that he didn't trust Su Jin, but rather that the questions Su Jin had asked tonight were simply too unusual.
Perhaps he was overthinking it.
"Captain, I have another request." Su Jin knew this would be difficult, but she had to get him to agree. "Could you please not tell Commander Xiao about what we discussed tonight?"
Given their relationship, Xiao Yunfeng might find out about their conversation tonight by tomorrow.
"You're really putting me in a difficult position." Sure enough, Zheng Changqing looked resistant when he heard the request.
Su Jin remained silent, but her pleading gaze grew even stronger.
Zheng Changqing finally relented, "Alright. But this will only be once."
the next day.
Li Honghai pushed the office door open, but Xiao Yunfeng, who was reading documents, didn't even lift his eyelids.
"Political Commissar, what's the matter that's so urgent that you didn't even bother to knock?"
Seeing his calm and composed demeanor, Li Honghai became even more impatient.
"Did the division commander speak with you?"
Xiao Yunfeng gave a slow and unhurried "hmm".
Li Honghai strode to the desk and forcefully slammed the documents in front of him shut.
Xiao Yunfeng finally managed to pull his thoughts away from his work.
"Political Commissar, I'm busy with important business."
Li Honghai emphasized, "It's a serious matter that the division commander wants to talk to you!"
Xiao Yunfeng got up from the chair; he had been sitting for quite a while and was feeling rather uncomfortable.
"My division commander often talks to me, why are you making such a fuss?"
In the past month, Qian Guangtao has called him in for a talk at least eight or ten times.
"But I heard that the top leader personally ordered the division commander to have you clarify your relationship with Su Jin as soon as possible?" Li Honghai felt that this matter had really blown up, that even the top leader had come forward.
Xiao Yunfeng gave an affirmative answer, "That's true. Political Commissar, your information network is really impressive."
Seeing that he still had the mind to make jokes, Li Honghai thought, "It's like the emperor isn't worried, but the eunuch is."
"So what are you planning to do next? Have you told the division commander that you and Su Jin aren't actually in that kind of relationship at all? The top leader is so busy with important matters, why would he suddenly get involved in something like this?"
He had already accepted Xiao Yunfeng's feelings for Su Jin and even intended to bring them together. But now that the chief had made his stance clear, Xiao Yunfeng had no choice but to accept it.
"To be honest, this is partly your fault. If you had taken a liking to that girl, you should have done it secretly and waited until it was a done deal before going public. Now, it's not even a sure thing yet, and you've let those rumors fly all over the military region. Now look what's happened, you can only give up on that idea."
In the end, Li Honghai felt genuinely sorry for Xiao Yunfeng.
After all, he was already in his thirties, and it was rare for him to meet a girl who could make his heart flutter.
Xiao Yunfeng waited until he finished speaking before saying, "I've already spoken to the division commander. This is my private matter, and the commander doesn't need to worry about it."
Li Honghai truly admired him from the bottom of his heart. To dare to express such a stance to the division commander and go against the wishes of the top leader, there was probably no one else in the entire military region besides Xiao Yunfeng.
"The division commander agreed?"
