Su Qingsang didn't want Huo Jinyao to continue on this topic, so she started talking about something new.
"By the way, your uncle is from a remarkably high-achieving family. Why did he choose to do such a dangerous thing?"
"If he hadn't done it, how could he have been promoted to senior colonel within just a short period?"
Huo Jinyao understood Zhang Yichen and they had a good relationship. He respected Zhang Yichen's choice.
Huo Jinyao's great uncle was already commander. If Zhang Yichen wished to live off his parents, that would not be a problem.
However, Zhang Yichen was ambitious. He had to make more effort than others to prove that he didn't achieve his success through his family connections.
"And, why do you say 'your uncle'? Isn't my uncle also your uncle?"
Su Qingsnag put out her tongue at him. She couldn't say the answer, that Zhang Yichen looked too young to be thought of as a senior family member.
