Chief of Staff Xiao is the chief of staff of the military district. He recognized Cang Ling immediately and noted that Cang Ling's military performance far outshone his own son's. He has a son who is still a long-time bachelor. He was surprised by something he saw during the performance and muttered about arranged marriages. He commented that Xue Miaoyun is an excellent military wife and noted that old Cang must be relieved to have a daughter-in-law like her at home. He sat in the first row during the performance alongside the division commander.
