The first time, he had been sent down from a helicopter in Jingdu. He had been carried down on a stretcher by a doctor. His entire body was covered in blood, and he had been holding on to his last breath to see her.
At that time, the whole world had been telling her that he was not going to live, that he was going to die soon.
That feeling had been heart-wrenching. At that time, she had risked everything to save him.
Fortunately, she had succeeded. She had won the bet.
This time, the way he had sat in the tractor on the verge of death had made her tremble in fear.
Although there were no bloodstains on his clothes, there was no trace of blood on his face. Lying beside him was a comrade who had died a long time ago. She had been so afraid that he would be like his comrade, that his heart would never beat again.
It was at that moment that he had opened his arms to her and hugged her with all his strength that all her strength had collapsed in an instant.
Jiang Yao had originally thought that no matter how busy Lu Xingzhi was in the army, she would always silently stand behind him and support him, just like how he had stood behind her and silently protected her before her rebirth.
However, Jiang Yao had finally realized that she could not do it.
"I'm afraid of every accident. I'm afraid that every time you go out on a mission, there will be an accident." Jiang Yao lowered her head and did not look at Lu Xingzhi. "I'm afraid that one day, I won't be waiting for you at home, but a glory. A glory that you exchanged for with your life. I'm afraid that I will become someone who has no one to rely on. I'm afraid that my child will lose his father. I'm afraid that in the future, I'll be the only one holding my child's little hand. Xingzhi, do you understand?"
Jiang Yao was a little choked up. "I'm really afraid that something will happen to you, so I really hope that you can stay by my side for a long time, no matter what your identity or profession is. But I also know that you like your military uniform and the responsibility on your shoulders. I don't want to make things difficult for you, so I'll endure it. I'll endure everything. But Xingzhi, this is the choice that Mom gave you. So, I'm sorry. I know that you want to help persuade Mom, but …"
Jiang Yao gently bit her lip and slowly said, "But I'm sorry, I can't do it."
She didn't take the initiative to speak up and give him a difficult choice, but that didn't mean that she would stand by his side and help him persuade Mother Lu.
After Jiang Yao finished speaking, she closed her eyes. Even though she was trying hard to suppress her emotions, there were still tears in the corner of her eyes.
Lu Xingzhi felt an indescribable bitterness in his heart. It wasn't because Jiang Yao didn't help him, but because of Jiang Yao's words.
She couldn't bear to make things difficult for him, so she hid all her emotions in the bottom of her heart. If she didn't say anything, he actually didn't notice.
Every day that she was with him, including the past few days, she was smiling happily. He did not notice her emotions, not even the slightest bit.
It wasn't only because she hid it too well, but also because he really didn't know her well enough.
At that moment, Lu Xingzhi felt weak all over. He always thought that he knew Jiang Yao well, even if it wasn't 100%, it was at least 9.9%. As long as she gave him a look, he could guess her thoughts. But now, reality told him that wasn't the case.
He lay there defeated. After a long while, he sighed deeply and reached out to pull Jiang Yao into his arms.
