Linghu Lan and Jing Xing scrutinized his small face.
Wei Jing is too young; you can't even see his features yet.
The two of them made wild guesses: his eyebrows were more like Jing Se's, his nose was more like Wei Meng's, his face shape must be oval, and he must be very handsome, just like his father and mother. He would definitely be loved by everyone in the future.
A warm yet melancholic atmosphere filled the air. The two kissed their child's cheeks, looked into each other's eyes, and felt a deep sense of fulfillment.
After a long pause, Linghu Lan said softly, "I'll apply for retirement tomorrow!"
Jingxing was stunned.
One of the two people has to take care of the child. They went through a lot of trouble to get custody of the child, so they can't let him grow up with a nanny. That would be irresponsible.
However, it was unfair to her.
"I should retire. After all, he only wants to be fed by me."
Linghu Lan chuckled. "He's just in a new environment and is shy. Feed him for another two or three meals, and once he's settled in, you won't need to sacrifice your upper body anymore. I love children, and I'm willing to raise him."
Since a decision has been made, some sacrifices are inevitable.
Moreover, after so many years, she no longer cares about worldly fame and fortune; instead, she only wants to gain more life experiences.
She has experienced many different types of lives, but she has never had the experience of being a mother and raising a child. This is a blessing from God, and it is hard-won.
"Don't you want to realize your ambitions? After all, you are the army's sniper god, and your future is limitless." Jing Xing still hesitated. He had gotten the child back because he wanted to fight for Jing Se.
Back then, he was the one who agreed to those harsh conditions. Although he knew that Linghu Lan couldn't have children, it was still very different from promising to give up the right to reproduce.
All of this was his decision, yet it required her to make a huge sacrifice, which he couldn't bear to do, both emotionally and rationally.
Linghu Lan smiled and said, "My ambition is to live a long and harmonious life with you, until we grow old together. I don't care about anything else."
If you're one of the options, I'll always choose you; if you're not, I wouldn't care about having the whole world.
Jingxing looked up at her for a long time, and Linghu Lan's dark eyes met his, filled with seriousness and determination.
A warm current surged through Jingxing's heart, and an indescribable bittersweet feeling filled his heart. He reached out and pinched her chubby cheeks, which had become a little fleshy due to her lack of training these days.
"You can't get any fatter. If you keep getting fatter, my heart won't be able to hold you anymore."
Linghu Lan's girlish heart was completely captivated, however...
"You think I'm fat?"
Jingxing: "..." Shouldn't your focus be on the fact that my heart only belongs to you?
"I'm not fat, I just have a small heart."
"Hmm, that's more like it!"
Jingxing couldn't help but smile, the gloom in his heart fading. "I'll apply for retirement with you tomorrow."
Linghu Lan was stunned. "You're not planning to be a general anymore? You're born to be a general!"
“I’ve thought about it. Taking care of a child is very hard. Due to the nature of my job, I may not be able to come home for a long time. I can’t let you bear all of this alone. I don’t want you to have a widow-like marriage and a single parenting situation.”
Linghu Lan's eyes welled up with tears. She smiled, but her eyes glistened with tears. "My dear Tang, your wife-doting nature has always been maxed out."
“Okay! Let’s resign together. Perfect, we can make up for the lack of paternal and maternal love that Wei Jing is missing.”
"good!"
So, the next day, the two of them submitted their retirement applications together.
The entire unit was shocked.
