Leng Yebai smiled and nodded, and only after watching Bai Xizhu's figure disappear did he continue drinking the chicken soup.

In the office, apart from the broken pieces of porcelain on the floor and the aroma of chicken soup, there were only two silent men.

A Rakshasa standing by the window, looking as if he were about to fall into hell.

A deity who had fallen into the mortal world, bowing his head to drink soup, became entangled in the mundane affairs of human life.

Five minutes later, Leng Yebai placed the empty bowl on the table with a missing corner, took two steps, and came to the base commander's side.

The base commander turned to look at Leng Yebai, the hostility in his eyes still lingering, and he seemed poised to unleash a torrent of abuse.

"I'm not that person, watch your attitude."

Leng Yebai was not polite at all.

He's someone's son, and sons aren't afraid of their fathers (except for Bai Yifan).

The base commander's face, which had just been full of hostility, froze instantly, and his eyes became resentful.

"I haven't even said anything yet!"

The base commander's momentum immediately plummeted.

It's completely different from before, and even has a touch of gentleness.

There was still a hint of melancholy in his voice.

He could never forgive himself whenever he thought about the past.

Everything was because he, a man, failed to protect his wife and son.

“The past is the past. People should look forward. You can learn to accept new things,” Leng Yebai said, looking out the window.

As an observer, Leng Yebai could see very clearly that the base commander completely regarded him as a sinner and never forgave himself for failing to protect his family.

It's too heavy a burden to live with the guilt of being a heinous criminal.

"Madam has never seen what you looked like when you grew up."

The base commander looked at Leng Yebai's reflection in the window and said...

"And you? If you were me, would you be willing to forget Xiao Zhu?"

Leng Yebai's eyes turned cold, and he stopped speaking.

It's easy to advise others, but when you truly let go yourself, you realize how difficult it is to let go of the person you risked your life to protect.

It's simply impossible.

Just thinking about the feeling of loss is unbearable.
