Li Jinnian found a rock and sat down. His slender legs were slightly apart, his arms were on his knees, and his fingers were crossed. He began to talk to Xia Jinyuan about the reasons why he had never thought of marriage.
In the past, the two of them only had a relationship of appreciation for each other, and they didn't see each other often, so there was a sense of distance between them.
Now, because of Ye Chien's existence, the two of them were closer, and it was natural for them to talk about things from the bottom of their hearts.
"The first time I saw a sacrifice was not long after I entered the navy. A few days ago, the soldier who sacrificed himself stood on the island and told me with a smile that in a week, his wife would come to see him with their four-year-old daughter."
"When I saw him again, his body was swollen from being soaked in seawater, and he was clutching a plastic bag with heroin in his hand. He encountered a drug smuggler at sea and was killed."
"The day I found him happened to be … the soldier's wife and son happily took the train for a day and a night, then took the plane for half a day, and finally took a four-hour boat ride. She carried bags of local specialties left and right, and the child held her satchel. The mother and son talked happily as they walked over."
"The comrade who picked up the mother and son told me that the wife refused to let the comrade carry the specialties she brought from home for fear of losing them. She also said that it was full of the comrade's favorite specialties. "
"The comrade couldn't hold back his tears when he heard that. He was afraid of being seen, so he hurriedly turned his head and wiped his tears away. After that, he didn't dare to say anything."
At this point, Li Jinnian's eyes were faintly red.
They were the toughest and most fearless men, and their hearts were also the softest and most tolerant men. Even after such a long time had passed, when the sad past was brought up again, it could still evoke the softness in their hearts that was filled with sorrow.
"From the northernmost part of our country to the southernmost part, this seemingly weak wife traveled dozens of hours in order to see her husband and bring him joy."
"She came with her child full of joy. The child wanted to see his father, and the wife wanted to see her husband. Later … what she saw was her husband's face deformed, and his body was swollen … to the point that he couldn't even wear a navy uniform. “
"It's just like that when the sky collapses. The real sky collapses is when the 'sky' in her heart collapses. Despair, gloom, hopelessness … This is the first time I've seen her have nightmares for three consecutive nights."
Such a topic was a common topic for both of them. Even after waking up from a dream, the feeling was similar.
Xia Jinyuan tapped his chest and said in a deep voice, "Every time I wake up, my warm heart feels like it's frozen in ice. There's no warmth at all. It's so cold that I shiver."
"At that time, I thought that I could never get married. I didn't want to implicate an innocent woman, a family that had nothing to do with me."
"My chest is so tight that it hurts when I take a breath. When I woke up the next day, all of my comrades had a layer of unbreakable sorrow in their eyes. That feeling … is really … "
Another breath was stuck in his throat, and the two of them fell silent at the same time.
It was as if the heart-wrenching cries of the loved ones of their fallen comrades were ringing in their ears. The pain of losing loved ones was even more painful than having one's heart gouged out.
"In our line of work, it's too dangerous. There's no way we can give our future wives and children a stable life. In that case, it's better not to. "
After a long time, Li Jinnian said softly, "If we're not careful, they'll be gone. Why bother implicating others?"
