Xiu Haofeng has been in a good mood recently. Chen Guan and the others didn't return before the mission ended, so there's no way the mission could be completed. It's uncertain if they're even alive.
The best outcome, of course, would be if Chen Guan died on the mission. Even if he didn't die and he returns, there's no future for him in the Reserve Team. Even if Ji Nanhong uses connections to get him into the regular army, with such a black mark, who would value him?
As for Bu Changning, Xiu Haofeng never intended to let him join Team One. Team One isn't a trash dump, how could he allow such a person to join?
"Captain... something's not right, Captain..." Xiu Haofeng was practicing calligraphy when his trusted aide Xiao Hu rushed over with a panicked face.
"What's got you so flustered?" Xiu Haofeng put down the pen and frowned at Xiao Hu.
"Chen Guan and the others are back," Xiao Hu said, panting.
"So they're back. What's the big deal?" Xiu Haofeng said indifferently.
