They finally came to a flat ground where stood a tall monument with the names of the martyrs engraved on it.
General Ye placed the paper flowers under the monument and touched the cold stone tablet without saying a word, but Shen Annian could see that he was somewhat moved.
She walked up to General Ye and comforted him, "Grandpa, don't be sad."
General Ye patted the monument gently and said, "Grandpa is not sad, he is just thinking about the past.
