"Of course not. I mean, would taking leave so frequently affect you negatively? What if someone has an opinion about you and reports you, what then?"
Although Cheng Jinyun's uncle is the top leader of the Beijing Military District, his frequent requests for leave to return home are still not in line with the rules. What if it affects his promotion?
Confirming that Lin Xiang wasn't upset with him, Cheng Jinyun secretly sighed in relief and then explained, "I didn't request leave. I just finished a mission and according to the regulations, I have a three-day leave. So, I came home."
Three days of leave isn't long. For soldiers stationed far from home, it only means the difference between a late wake-up and an early one; they can't make it home.
But Cheng Jinyun is different. His home is so close, of course he would come back.
