Chapter 374 I heard that love in the Republic of China was nine out of ten tragic (66)
Suddenly.
"Strange, why didn't my brother come?" Chen Zheliu asked inappropriately.
As soon as these words came out, Chen Guiwu paused holding the chopsticks, and did not say anything. Instead, Chunxi, who was standing next to him, responded.
"Oh, the young master has gone to the Marshal's Mansion to deal with some matters. It seems that the war in the north is about to spread to the Forty-Nine City."
Hearing this, even Shen Qinghuan raised his eyes and glanced at him, speaking coldly.
"When did you get the news?"
Chunxi quickly picked up a newspaper on the brown sofa and walked forward to hand it to Shen Qinghuan.
"It just came out in today's newspapers. Four cities in the north fell yesterday. The Japanese pirates have occupied important strongholds and are now heading south."
Shen Qinghuan raised her eyebrows and took the newspaper. She spread it out and took a closer look. Sure enough, the headline was that the North was almost occupied and the war was raging.
Even Chen Zheliu knew what this meant, and the food in his mouth suddenly lost its flavor. "... Doesn't that mean that many people died..."
In particular, the war is very likely to spread to the city of Beijing!
Chen Guiwu was naturally aware of this. He really hadn't had time to pay attention to the Chamber of Commerce and the outside world in the past two days. After eating a few bites quickly, he frowned and looked at Sheng Wu, explaining in a serious voice.
"Awu, I need to go to the Chamber of Commerce. Post-disaster support is urgent."
After all, the Chamber of Commerce has an important responsibility, which is to resist foreign enemies and support internal affairs.
"I know." Sheng Wu nodded sensibly, "Go quickly and be careful."
"Yeah." Then Shen Guiwu immediately picked up the coat next to him and left with Gu Bai.
Sheng Wu, Shen Qinghuan and Shen Zheliu were left to continue eating.
Shen Qinghuan directly picked up the serving chopsticks and picked up a piece of spicy vegetable for Sheng Wu.
“This is delicious.”
Sheng Wu happily took it, looked at her with a smile, and nodded obediently.
"Well, thank you Qinghuan."
"Try this too, it's delicious."
The two of them exchanged glances, but Chen Zheliu, who was usually calm, seemed to be blind at this moment. He didn't even look at them or say anything.
I just put down the bowl after finishing my meal and said something.
"I'm done eating. I'm going to see if Big Brother needs any help. I'm leaving now."
He got up lazily and left, looking handsome in his nobleman's suit.
And Shen Qinghuan didn't care about Shen Zheliu. After he left, he stood up and sat next to Sheng Wu, which was the position where Shen Zheliu was just now.
"Awu, the war in the north is intense. As the young marshal, my eldest brother will most likely need to go to the battlefield, and as the president of the Chamber of Commerce, my father also needs to coordinate supplies. I'm afraid he will be getting busier these days."
Hearing her suddenly talking about serious matters, Sheng Wu raised his eyebrows and suddenly realized something.
"You mean, you want to take this opportunity to take me abroad?"
I originally thought she thought so, but Shen Qinghuan held her slender waist tightly. After hesitating for a second with a cold look in her eyes, she shook her head.
"No, I won't leave. I'll send you abroad."
As soon as these words came out, Sheng Wu suddenly raised his eyes and looked at her with confusion, "Why? Don't you want to leave with me?"
"It's not that I don't want to, but I can't." Shen Qinghuan raised his hand and touched her head soothingly, his expression solemn.
"I am a member of the Shen family. If it were a peaceful and prosperous time, I would be able to leave with you without any scruples. But now, foreign enemies are invading and the country is in turmoil. As a father and eldest brother, I cannot ignore it. And as a member of the Shen family, and as someone who is determined to return to the country to save it, I cannot just leave at this time."
Although their father rarely showed affection to his three children, he never lacked anything for them except love. He sent them abroad to study and brought them up very well. They all understood family and country, benevolence, righteousness, propriety and wisdom. Otherwise, the eldest brother would not have joined the army and made an exception to become the young marshal with his own punches and guns.
And she and Shen Zheliu would never have gone to the military academy for training.
If there was one surprise, it would be Sheng Wu.
After a pause, Shen Qinghuan looked at her with a serious and determined look in his eyes, "But the only thing I'm worried about is you."
"Now that the north has fallen, even though Sijiucheng is a major city in the south, I'm worried about any accidents. So, it's best for you to leave."
While father and elder brother are not paying much attention to Sheng Wu.
Hearing this, Sheng Wu's pupils trembled, "So... you are preparing to serve your country?!"
"Yes." Shen Qinghuan nodded seriously. "When I was studying abroad, I not only learned translation, but also some knowledge about marching and fighting. Moreover, I have been to a military academy. It is most appropriate for me to stay here at this time."
She learned all those things back then for this day in the future, but she didn't have the ability to tell fortunes, so she didn't expect to have an extra concern today.
"Can......"
