What Liang Qiushi was asking about was probably her joining the army in place of Gu Jinzhi.
Li Wei nodded somewhat bewilderedly: "Of course it's true... Why, Aunt Liang, do you have a new plan?"
Liang Qiushi took a slow breath, then let it out gently, leaning back and resting his head on the soft headrest.
That delicate face that didn't match her age showed a hint of fatigue at this moment.
She was silent for a long time, so long that Li Wei thought she would never speak again.
Finally, Liang Qiushi seemed to have made some great decision, but his voice was no longer calm, but with a barely perceptible hoarseness: "No new plans. I just... I just..."
She said "just" for a long time, but never said the rest of the words.
Li Wei was still confused and at a loss.

"Even after graduation, no one will force you to go to the battlefield! Like Shen Yaochi, she applied several times, but was rejected every time."
"Li Wei, you..."
Li Wei was still in a trance as she listened to Liang Qiushi's previous words, but they went in one ear and out the other.
But when she heard the latter part, she immediately felt like a cat whose tail was stepped on, and her hair almost stood on end!
She quickly grasped the key point, her eyes widened suddenly, her voice unconsciously rising a few notes, and with a hint of urgency, she asked:
"You mean... if I don't serve in place of Gu Jinzhi, I won't be able to go to the front line myself, right?!"
