More than ten minutes ago, outside.
Gu Jinwen, Gu Jinyi, and Zeng Yi were either sitting or standing. No one was in the mood to talk, and the atmosphere was so depressing that you could squeeze water out of it.
Until the door of the outer room was pushed open and Liang Qiushi walked in dragging a suitcase.
When Zeng Yi saw the person coming, he hurried over and took the box.
"Auntie, what is this?"
Liang Qiushi's face was tired. "The doctor said yesterday that Jinzhi will be able to be transferred out of the ICU today. I prepared some clean clothes and daily necessities for him in advance."
She looked around, her eyes fell on the closed door of the inner room, and she lowered her voice.
"Why are they all outside? Are they...Jinzhi and Axue inside?"
Zeng Yi nodded sullenly, turned around, opened the door of the outer wardrobe, and prepared to put the box in.
But when the cabinet door opened, he was stunned.
Another suitcase was already lying quietly inside.
He had been resting here for the past few days and had never seen this box before, so he couldn't help but exclaimed "Huh".
The others also looked over.
Gu Jinyi asked curiously, "Whose box is this?"
No one can answer.
Gu Jinwen guessed: "Could it be my sister-in-law's?"
"Why did sister-in-law put the box here?" Gu Jinyi retorted casually.
These words were like a bolt of lightning, striking Zeng Yi.
He suddenly remembered Li Wei's unusual behavior of frequently asking him to cover for her shifts these days.
He also recalled what Gu Jinzhi had mentioned to him not long ago, his suspicions about Li Wei's identity, and...
He glanced at Liang Qiushi, and a terrible idea formed in his mind.
His face changed and he suddenly reached out to open the strange box.
"Brother Zeng!"
Gu Jinyi stopped him.
"If the box really belongs to my sister-in-law, you can't just open it!"
Liang Qiushi looked at this scene, and thinking of Li Wei's previous resolute attitude, he also thought of a possibility.
Her face turned pale in an instant.
She reached out to stop her daughter, her voice trembling but unusually clear.
"Xiaoyi, open it."
Zeng Yi no longer hesitated, dragged the box out and placed it on the coffee table in the outer room.
He took a deep breath and unfastened the buckle.
The lid popped open.
In an instant, the contents inside stung everyone's eyes.
Neatly folded military uniforms, brand new epaulettes, and a crimson officer's certificate.
The air seemed to freeze at this moment.
Liang Qiushi covered his chest and his body swayed for a long time before he stabilized himself.
She reached out her hand tremblingly and picked up the officer's ID.
He stroked the hard cover with his fingertips and slowly opened it.
The person in the photo is Li Wei...
Her trembling fingertips rubbed the two words "Jiang Xue" and slowly slid to the issuance date below.
August 30, 216 New Era...
It was yesterday.
When other people see these things, how can they not understand what is happening?
Li Wei, hiding it from everyone, joined the army in place of Gu Jinzhi.
She saved the Gu family in the most tragic way.
"We agreed, we agreed to go to Dongming together..."
Gu Jinyi's mouth pursed, and she couldn't hold it in any longer, and was about to rush into the inner room crying.
Gu Jinwen was quick to cover his sister's mouth and hold her tightly in his arms.
Zeng Yi clenched his fists, his knuckles turning white, and banged his head against the wall, but he tried hard to suppress his anger, not daring to make any loud noise.
Boom, boom, boom.
The dull sound of impact was mixed with his suppressed sobs.
"If Brother Dazhi wakes up... how am I going to explain this to him... how miserable he will be..."
The other two young men also stood there in a daze, their faces blank, as if their souls had been taken away.
At this moment, a low, slightly hoarse singing voice came faintly from the crack of the inner door.
The song seemed to have a strange magic that made everyone stop what they were doing and subconsciously move closer to the door step by step.
......
"~I know there won't be a next time~"
"~The wind keeps blowing on the way home~"
......
Gu Jinyi pushed Gu Jinwen's hand away and choked up, "Wow... Is it... my sister-in-law... singing?"
"Shh!"
Gu Jinwen pressed his index finger to his lips, signaling her to be quiet.
......
"~How many tiny things are there in this world~"
"~Like a big dream~"
......
Liang Qiushi suddenly covered his mouth, and the tears he had been holding back finally burst out.
She remembered their first meeting at Mulan Villa and the beginning of that lie.
Now thinking about it, it was all just a dream.
At this moment, she really regretted...
......
"~I want to go with you~"
"~Until the world collapses~"
......
When Zeng Yi heard this, he could no longer hold back. He slowly slid down to the ground against the wall, tears streaming down his face.
He seemed to be talking in his sleep, mumbling to himself.
“How could this happen… How could this happen…”
......
"~But you who walked through the long night~"
"~No need to worry anymore~"
......
Inner room.
Li Wei hummed the song she had heard in her previous life, and she did feel a little sad at first.
But as she sang, she suddenly remembered the "orange" in the bedroom, and thought of the origin of the song and the story behind it.
