How did he know her? Qin Zhi 'ai turned to look at Gu Yusheng in surprise.
Qin Zhi 'ai turned to look at Gu Yusheng in surprise.
Gu Yusheng couldn't drink alcohol since he had just recovered from his injury. He drank half of the water from a disposable cup and didn't respond to Qin Zhi 'ai's question. After a moment of silence, he nodded at the man sitting across from him. "Yes."
After Gu Yusheng admitted it, not only Qin Zhi 'ai became more and more curious, but the people around them also became curious.
When the man sitting across from Gu Yusheng saw that everyone was asking him questions, he answered, "Well, not long after we joined the army, we learned how to shoot. Captain Gu was the best marksman. One day, when I was jogging on the field early in the morning, I saw him playing with a gun. Out of curiosity, I took a look at the target. There was a word on the target, 'Xiao' ai. My sister-in-law's name is Qin Zhi 'ai, and there's a word on it. I made a wild guess, and I didn't expect to be right …"
Qin Zhi 'ai tilted her head to look at Gu Yusheng with a smile in her eyes.
Gu Yusheng knew that she was looking at him, but he didn't return her gaze. Probably because she had found out about his little secret, his fair ears blushed imperceptibly.
The meal was eaten and the wine was drunk. It was time for those who should disperse to leave.
With the departure imminent, the atmosphere inevitably became a little sad. Some of the words that came out of their mouths were blessings, and some were nostalgia.
"After I leave this time, I'm afraid I won't come back for the rest of my life. The important task of protecting the country will be handed over to those who stay. This glass of wine is for you!
"I remember all of them. I've dismantled 127 bombs. This is just the beginning. If possible, I wish I had never dismantled a bomb in my life."
"I don't have any big dreams. I only hope that I can see my wife next year, instead of once, twice."
Obviously, these were the most simple words, but Qin Zhi 'ai could read a lot of sadness and sacrifice that others didn't know.
In the end, it was time to leave.
Gu Yusheng, who had been lazy since he had sat down, stood up and raised a glass of water to the people around him. Then he drank it in one gulp, using water as a substitute for wine.
After everyone had put down their glasses, someone asked Gu Yusheng to leave a message before he left.
Gu Yusheng thought for a long time. Just when everyone thought he wouldn't say anything, he moved his lips and said, "I hope everyone can return home alive."
Stay alive … These two simple words silenced everyone in the cafeteria.
Behind the glory of their profession was life and blood.
To them, living was the most extravagant dream.
Gu Yusheng straightened his back and raised his hand to make a formal and powerful military salute.
Then, everyone in the cafeteria raised their hands and returned the exact same military salute.
Without another word, Gu Yusheng held Qin Zhi 'ai's hand and walked out of the cafeteria.
After getting in the car, Qin Zhi 'ai took a look at Gu Yusheng. He was looking straight ahead without any sign of turning around.
The car slowly drove for some distance. Qin Zhi 'ai couldn't help but turn her head back. The words she had just heard in the cafeteria rang in her ears again.
Suddenly, a sentence flashed across her mind, "Behind the peaceful times, there is someone bearing the burden for you."
