She wanted to ask him if he could come back.
If she had asked him directly, perhaps he would have felt better in his heart. However, she only asked two words and then stopped, which made his heart ache.
Gu Yusheng took a puff of his cigarette and said without thinking, "I'll report to my superiors tomorrow. I'll come back to Beijing at the end of the month to be with you."
"Really?" Qin Zhi 'ai's voice was full of excitement and joy.
"Really," Gu Yusheng answered without hesitation.
Before he could finish his sentence, he heard her faint laughter from the other side of the phone. It was like a warm ray of sunlight that pushed away the gloomy haze and shone into his heart. It made his gloomy mood brighten up a lot.
The reason he was in the hospital was that some of the people who had come with him on the mission had died. Some of them were seriously injured and struggling on the edge of life and death.
When she had called, he had been in the ward. The seriously injured person had not yet been out of danger.
The comrade who died had been fighting on the frontline for more than 20 years. He was 45 years old this year and had not married yet. Yesterday morning, during breakfast, he happened to be sitting with him. Someone asked him why he had not retired yet. He had replied, "Why should I retire? I still have the ability to contribute to this land, so I'll do it."
The seriously injured comrade was the only son in his family. His family was poor, so he had been sent to the army. Because of his outstanding performance, he had been sent here.
He had only been here for a few months, but he had already died and been injured … Maybe he would be the next one to suffer the same fate.
Gu Yusheng turned around and looked at the hospital building behind him. After thinking for a moment, he called her name. "Xiao 'ai?"
"Yes?"
"I have something to give you." Actually, he had planned to give it to her as a wedding gift when he married her. He thought that she would be very touched when she saw it, but too many of his comrades had been in trouble recently. The situation was too abnormal. He didn't know if he would still be able to talk to her on the phone in the next second, so it was better to do some things now.
"What is it?" Qin Zhi 'ai's voice was filled with curiosity. When she heard that he was coming back, she even smiled.
"Go to my study." Qin Zhi 'ai followed Gu Yusheng's instructions and quickly walked out of the master bedroom. She walked to the door of the study and said, "Okay." Gu Yusheng continued, "Bookcase, second row from the left, third drawer from the bottom. Open it."
Qin Zhi 'ai did as instructed.
There was a box in the drawer.
Was this what he was giving her?
Before Qin Zhi 'ai could ask, Gu Yusheng said, "Do you see that box?"
"Hmm …"
"Open it."
"Oh."
Qin Zhi 'ai put her phone on speaker mode and put it on the desk. She took the box out of the drawer and opened the lid. She saw many familiar envelopes.
Qin Zhi 'ai was stunned for a moment, then she put down the box and randomly picked out a letter. She pulled out the paper from the envelope and unfolded it. Her handwriting and familiar words jumped out at her.
As if she couldn't believe it, she picked up a few more letters and opened them.
These were all letters she had written to Mr. S … How could they be in Gu Yusheng's hands?
Qin Zhi 'ai's eyes darted around before she looked at the phone on the table. "Yusheng …"
