Chapter 780: Confronting the Old Leader

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Upon hearing the news, the officer from out of town was taken aback, his hand instinctively covering his mouth in surprise. “Deputy Commander Hu and Commander Su are…?” he asked, his voice trailing off.

The officer in the know lowered his voice, “It was the late Teacher Hu’s dying wish for Commander Su to marry Miss Hu. However, some things happened afterward that are difficult to discuss…”

In the vehicle, Commander Huo maintained his rough and tumble demeanor, his hair a disheveled mess. Even while driving, he didn’t forget to keep a cigarette clamped between his lips. After finishing the day’s training, he had planned to take Su Shen on a tour around the city. After all, the capital had undergone some changes since Su Shen’s departure.

However, to his surprise, as soon as the training ended, Su Shen had to immediately head to another training base. Not even a donkey would be worked this hard. frёewebηovel.cѳm

“I mean, is this old geezer’s intention to not let you rest at all? And you just silently go along with it?” he asked, his tone incredulous.

Su Shen, sitting in the passenger seat, paid no mind to the scenery outside the window. His thoughts were consumed by the people and events in Guangcheng. Hearing Huo Jing’s words, he responded in a calm and unhurried manner, “The old leader is trying to prevent me from seeing him, not giving me a chance to speak.”

The leader was well aware that Su Shen’s return this time was to ask for freedom from the higher-ups. However, they were not willing to let him go so easily, hence the numerous obstacles. Su Shen had anticipated this, and it was one of the reasons he felt guilty towards Gu Zi. Regardless, he had to gain his freedom. He could afford to wait, but once the time was used, he would demand results.

Upon hearing this, Huo Jing felt increasingly annoyed at the old leader’s actions. Although he didn’t want Su Shen to give up his future and looked forward to fighting alongside Su Shen again, he respected Su Shen’s wishes more. He took out his cigarette, casually threw it out of the window, and said with a smirk, “You can endure it, but I can’t. I must find that old man and have a talk with him.”

In the afternoon, Huo Jing arrived at the Shen residence, claiming to be on a visit. However, the guards, as if they had received prior orders, did not usher him in as before but instead blocked his path. “Commander Huo,” they said, “the old leader has been feeling unwell lately and is not receiving guests. Please leave.”
