Only she herself knew how much she was reluctant to let him go, but she wanted Zhou Yanjing to go higher and further. He had the ability and talent, and only by joining the special forces could he better display his talents and gain more attention.
Zhou Yanjing's arms tightened slightly, and his breath was filled with moist water vapor. "Is this all I can do?"
His voice was low, as if his throat was blocked by something, and his words were filled with suppressed emotions.
Shen Liwu's fingers gently stroked his back, feeling his solid muscle lines through the fabric, "I know you can't bear to leave me, and I can't bear to leave you either."
Her voice was gentle, as if she was afraid to break the tranquility of the moment, "But you have to move forward, and I can't be a stumbling block for you."
He let go of her, lowered his head, and looked into her eyes deeply and complicatedly, “You are not a stumbling block, you are my most important reason.”
His fingers gently brushed across her cheek, wiping away a drop of water that might have been rain or tears.
Shen Liwu pursed her lips, her eyes slightly red, but she tried hard not to let the tears fall, "Come on, don't make me worry."
Zhou Yanjing took a deep breath and said, "Remember what I told you, if you have any troubles, go to Bai Jingnan, he will help you.
Take good care of yourself and don't eat too much cold or spicy food. You should avoid certain foods when you are pregnant. If you want to eat seafood, just buy it. I will transfer my monthly salary to you, although it's not as much as yours.
I came out not long after winter began, and the three months passed very quickly.
Don't come back too late after get off work, it's not safe. I have already applied for someone to protect your safety when you enter and exit. With your current ability, your superiors will pay attention to you and will send someone down soon. ”
Zhou Yanjing kept nagging, and Shen Liwu urged him: "I know, hurry up! You have said these words several times, and I remember them all."
She smiled very happily. It felt so happy to be remembered by others.
Although he is leaving now.
"Then I'm done."
The jeep was already waiting in front. Zhou Yanjing looked back every few steps and walked to the side of the jeep. He got in the car and waved to Shen Liwu.
"Go back home! Don't catch a cold."
The rain gradually became heavier and the air was filled with the smell of earth. Shen Liwu stood in place, the umbrella in his hand tilted slightly, water droplets slid down the ribs of the umbrella, splashing tiny water drops. She followed the jeep that was moving farther and farther away through the hazy rain curtain, and only when it disappeared around the corner did she slowly withdraw her gaze.
Her fingers stroked the umbrella handle, and she felt a cool sensation at her fingertips. My heart feels empty, as if something has taken a piece out of it. She took a deep breath and tried to look calm, but her eyes were red.
He turned around and walked towards the path leading to the family compound. The bluestone slabs under my feet were washed extremely smooth by the rain, and I had to take every step carefully.
When he's not around, she has to take better care of herself.
When I returned home, his shadow was everywhere in the house. It was really hard to get used to it for a while.
He had just passed away and she missed him already.
…
Everything returned to normal. Shen Liwu spent every day working and resting at home doing research.
