Actually, looking back, it's quite simple.
What kind of expression do you have when you abandon your comrades?
Logically speaking, it should be one of guilt and distress. But given the circumstances at the time, he knew he still had a mission, had to safely escort the mission target away. Otherwise, the sacrifice of his teammates would be in vain, and the mission would fail.
So, he felt that at the time his gaze must have been firm, very firm.
But it was just a firm gaze, not knowing what kind of misunderstanding it gave to Tong Yao, nor what Tong Yao ultimately thought...
Now, saying these things is entirely useless.
For Tan Jincheng, those past matters hold no value for recollection whatsoever!
Truly no value worth remembering.
The memories Tong Yao cherished have no significance on Tan Jincheng's side either.
