But his gaze never left Yu Yao, let alone looked at her.

Wan Xiaozhen was too ashamed to stay any longer, so she covered her face and ran away.

Yu Yao glanced at the time, said goodbye to the others, and left work with Lu Ze.

Half an hour later.

The afterglow of the setting sun spills onto the azure sea, and the coconut trees on the shore cast long, slender shadows.

Seabirds circled in the distance, sometimes flying into the sea to catch prey, sometimes disappearing into the windbreak forest.

Sitting on the back of the bicycle, Yu Yao clutched Lu Ze's clothes, admiring the beautiful scenery as she asked, "Where are we going to celebrate?"

"Do you remember Uncle Chen I told you about before? We went to see him today."

Lu Ze had told her that this Uncle Chen Lang was also a legend in the island troops, and was one of the first soldiers to come to the island for construction.

An old revolutionary, he was once the sharpshooter under Master Lu, and his sniping skills were superb.

He once single-handedly annihilated a small enemy unit, making a significant contribution to the liberation of the island.

He once had a confidante, a well-bred young lady who had returned from studying abroad. The two had planned to get married, but she died at the hands of bandits while protecting fishermen during a mission.

From then on, Uncle Chen devoted himself to the liberation of the island. The leaders and aunties introduced him to potential partners many times, but he always refused with the words "I will never marry again".

Over the years, he returned alone to the place where he met his lover. Lu Ze told him that he had planted a large area of ​​fruit trees that his lover liked to eat, and he has lived there alone for decades.

For Lu Ze, he was both a teacher and an elder.

Yu Yao was a little anxious and couldn't help but pinch Lu Ze, "Why didn't you say so earlier? I forgot to bring the clothes I made for Uncle Chen."
