Chapter 210 Talking about the past



"General Sun, are you alright?"

Seeing that he remained silent for a long time, sitting with his head down, Shen Mu Ning quickly greeted him.

Although she knew that seeing past memories might have a great impact on him.

It's normal to be immersed in memories for a while and not be able to get out of them.

But he was different. She had just noticed that Sun Wu's emotions were fluctuating too much, and even the blood clot in his brain was at risk of shifting.

That's why she had to remind him immediately, to stop him from getting lost in his memories.

Upon hearing her voice, Sun Wu seemed to realize that it was just his memory and suddenly awoke.

He looked into her concerned eyes, but could only shake his head gently, unable to utter a single word.

"General Sun, whatever your sorrows may be, thirty years have passed. It's time to let go of them!"

“Yes, I know,” Sun Wu replied in a hoarse voice.

He was well aware of this principle, but he simply couldn't control his emotions for the time being.

Shen Mu Ning understood the reasoning behind it, so she simply offered a word of comfort and left the office.

This left Sun Tzu with both space and time to slowly process the memories he had lost.

"Comrade Shen, are you all better now?" Wu Shuo asked immediately as he saw Shen Mu Ning leave.

"Yes, but let's not disturb him yet."

Knowing that he was very concerned about Sun Wu's situation, she immediately told him about regaining his memory.

"Good, thank you, Comrade Chen, you've finally helped the Commander regain his memory."

Although Wu Shuo only learned about it in the last two days, Sun Wu had been trying to regain his memories.

But after learning from Zhou Zhou, he knew about the commander's obsession with memory.

This time, my wish finally came true, and I really have to thank Shen Mu Ning.

"It's alright." Just because he was a revolutionary predecessor, she would help him out.

What's more, he's also my maternal grandfather.

She still remembered that before her mother died, she was concerned about her grandfather wanting to find his younger brother.

If she hadn't run into him, she could have assumed he was dead, but now he's right in front of her.

It would be unreasonable not to help.

The two chatted outside for a while, and then Sun Wu opened the door and came out himself.

"Xiao Ning, tell me about the Sun family!"

Although he had read Shen Mu Ning's information and knew that his older brother and niece were no longer alive.

But I still want to hear her talk about her family situation.

“Okay.” Shen Mu Ning followed him into the house and sat down, then began to recount what she had learned from the original owner’s memories.

When Sun Wu left home, Sun Qing was still a baby in swaddling clothes.

Sun Wen, who was looking forward to her younger brother's return, would often tell her about her second uncle.

Of course, I often take that photo out to look at it.

So even though Sun Qing had never met her second uncle in her memory, she was very familiar with him.

After liberation, she and Sun Yat-sen also looked forward to her second uncle's return.

After all, in her father's words, her second uncle was a great hero who fought against the Japanese invaders.

However, even after Sun Wen and his wife passed away one after another and Sun Qing grew up, she never saw Sun Wu return.

Next came Sun Qing's marriage and childbirth.

“Xiao Ning, you don’t know, your mother had just been born when your maternal grandfather felt that the country was unstable and unsafe.”

"So they stopped the Sun family's business, sold off many of their properties, and used most of the money to buy medicine and food."

"Then donate all of these to the army that is fighting against the Japanese."

After listening to what Shen Mu Ning had said, Sun Wu began to tell her about his youth.

"At the time, I thought that with my own strength, I should be able to join the army and contribute to the war of resistance."

However, at that time he thought his older brother wouldn't let him go, since the Sun family only had four people left, including his little niece.

That's why he left a letter and secretly slipped away through the back door, only to be caught by Sun Yat-sen there.

He was extremely frustrated, thinking he would be scolded and even put in solitary confinement.

He still remembers how he felt, how anxious and worried he was.

"But your grandfather actually let me go and even prepared a lot of things for me to use on the road."

"He just said he would wait for me to come home."

Unfortunately, I couldn't keep my promise.

After the victory in the War of Resistance against Japan, he did not go home.

He made his brother wait for so long for nothing.

When Sun Tzu spoke the last few words, his voice was so soft that it was blown away by the wind.

But Shen Mu Ning still heard it.

She thought, this must be fate playing tricks on me.

Sun Tzu, who was originally safe and sound, broke his promise due to amnesia.

She just wanted someone to catch the mastermind behind the illegal sale of cultural relics, and that's how she ended up running into them!

"You didn't mean to break your promise, so there's no need to worry about it too much."

Who would have thought they would lose their memory?

Shen Mu Ning felt that he was doing right by his grandfather, since he was able to regain his memories based on just one dream.

"Yes, but Xiao Ning, from now on, you will be the only junior in the Sun family."

“You don’t need to call me Second Grandfather anymore, just call me Grandpa, it’s more affectionate.”

Sun Wu, a man who could rise to the rank of lieutenant general and become the commander of the Lingbei Military Region, would certainly not allow himself to remain immersed in past memories and regrets.

His elder brother, sister-in-law, and niece are all gone. The only relative he can hold onto is this granddaughter in front of him.

So after he calmed down, he simply told Shen Mu Ning to call him Grandpa.

After all, when you think about it, my grandfather is naturally much closer to me than my maternal grandfather.

Shen Mu Ning was also taken aback; he had broken the somber atmosphere so quickly.

But Sun Jiaji is just a junior?

"Um, you mean I'm the only junior member of the Sun family? What's going on?"

Why is it that none of my grandfathers have gotten married?

Seeing her puzzled look, Sun Wu didn't keep her in suspense and simply explained his personal situation.

"My partner was introduced to me by my former boss, but we are both in poor health, so we didn't have children."

He and his lover, Si Yumeng, were brought together by their former leader after the victory of the War of Resistance against Japan.

However, before they even met, they had already made it clear to each other that their physical conditions prevented them from having children.

After meeting, he felt that they got along well and their situations were similar, so they decided to live together.

Upon hearing his words, Shen Mu Ning thought there was something wrong with her ears.

She truly couldn't believe that in this day and age, there were still people who chose to be childless.

Although they didn't do it voluntarily, but because their bodies wouldn't allow it, they're still amazing.

"So, you haven't adopted a child or anything?"

After all, if neither of them can have children, they can adopt. As long as the child is filial, they'll be almost like biological children in the future.

“Yu Meng and I are both quite busy, especially her. We were worried that we wouldn’t be able to take good care of the child, so we didn’t even consider it.”
