Huo Xueshen waved his hand dismissively and said, "Who could have predicted this kind of thing in advance?"
Tian Huanyan lowered her eyes and said in a low, hoarse voice, "But if it weren't for me, you wouldn't have added another crime to someone else's list."
Huo Xueshen frowned slightly, his tone becoming heavy: "They just want to drag me down. No matter how many crimes there are, as long as there is even the slightest mistake, they will magnify it infinitely. The ending will be the same. You have just returned and do not understand the current situation in China. You will gradually understand in the future."
Huo Xueshen really didn't want to say much about the past.
Knowing that Tian Huanyan had called him out for this reason, he felt a strange sense of loss.
He thought she wanted to talk to him about their relationship.
She sighed inwardly. No rush. She'd only just returned. She'd wait until she'd settled into life in China.
Huo Xueshen and Tian Huanyan stayed at the military base for a week before returning home.
One went back to the north of the city, and the other went back to the United States.
Tian Huanyan returned to the United States to bring her parents back.
Bincheng.
Qin Zhizhi temporarily stayed at Wang Jingyi's house, as arranged by her.
At this moment, Qin Zhizhi sat alone in the room, her hand supporting her round cheek, her gaze fixed on the doorway.
She has been here for almost a month, but Wang Renyi has not yet returned.
When she first arrived, she would occasionally go out with Wang Jingyi and gradually learned some things about Wang Renyi.
For example, he is currently the oldest unmarried officer in the military.
Although he is a bit older, he still has quite a few fans, but they all fooled him with the excuse that he "has a girlfriend".
Everyone said that they had heard about his girlfriend for years, but she had never appeared. They refused to believe it and began to enthusiastically find her a partner, forcing Wang Renyi to use his mission as an excuse to avoid the topic.
Qin Zhizhi listened to these same few topics over and over for several days, which were mostly trivial family matters. She didn't like listening to these things, so she didn't go out with Wang Jingyi today and stayed at home alone, lost in thought.
Just as Qin Zhizhi was feeling incredibly bored and wanted to get up and stretch, Wang Jingyi pushed open the door from the outside, a cheerful smile on her face, and said to Qin Zhizhi, "Zhizhi, Wang Renyi is back!"
Qin Zhizhi suddenly stood up, her eyes lighting up: "Really?"
Wang Jingyi nodded vigorously: "Of course! I just saw their car enter the gate, and I turned around and ran back to tell you."
She was chatting with other military wives, thinking about going to buy groceries, when she saw a military vehicle coming in through the gate. She immediately turned around and ran back.
Seeing Qin Zhizhi's eagerness to find Wang Renyi, she added with a smile, "I'll go with you to find him after he's taken half an hour to tidy up. He's just come back, and he must be dirty and hungry. He needs to get ready first."
Upon hearing this, Qin Zhizhi silently withdrew the step she had already taken.
After lunch, Qin Zhizhi sat on a stone bench in the courtyard.
She was about to see Wang Renyi, and she felt both nervous and apprehensive. She wondered if he would be happy to see her, or if he would turn away with a cold face, or perhaps... be warm and welcoming like a long-awaited reunion.
Qin Zhizhi waited with a heavy heart until Wang Jingyi brought Wang Renyi over.
But when that person actually appeared before her, Qin Zhizhi felt her heart, which had been pounding wildly, suddenly calm down.
She gazed at Wang Renyi quietly. He looked much more mature and composed than before, no longer grinning like a silly boy in front of everyone.
The first thing Wang Renyi saw when he entered the room was Qin Zhizhi. He looked at her with a deep gaze, his face calm, but his heart was in turmoil.
How could he possibly remain calm when someone who had disappeared for seven years, or someone he had been longing for for seven years, suddenly appeared before him like this?
He wanted to go forward and hug her, but found that he had already lost his identity.
Thinking that so many years have passed, Qin Zhizhi, a young woman, might have already married and had children. Wang Renyi felt a sudden pain in his heart and subconsciously wanted to press his hand to his chest, but he forcibly held back.
He turned to Wang Jingyi, his voice a little tense: "Sister-in-law, I have to go back first."
After saying that, without waiting for Wang Jingyi's reply, he turned and left in a hurry, his back view revealing an indescribable sense of haste.
Wang Jingyi looked at Qin Zhizhi and helplessly spread her hands: "I kept it a secret from him that you were here, and I specially invited him over. But Zhizhi, don't be discouraged. You two haven't even spoken yet, and he doesn't know your actual situation. Once he finds out, he definitely won't say anything. He'll probably drag you around and tell you how he's been all these years."
As Qin Zhizhi watched Wang Renyi's departing figure without hesitation, her heart felt heavy, filled with bitterness.
Judging from his appearance, he wouldn't even say hello, so how could he possibly be willing to listen to her explanation?
Qin Zhizhi was never one to fawn over someone who didn't appreciate her kindness. Since the other party didn't want to see her, she should be more tactful.
But why does my heart ache so much?
