Zheng Xinyi's comforting arm fell on his shoulder. At this moment, Cheng Haoyu was already in tears, his brows were tightly wrinkled, and his voice began to become hoarse: "I was... I really resisted at that time. Lin Xiaolong is my brother. I can't point a gun at my brother, but the leader kept ordering me over there. I still didn't obey the order and covered Lin Xiaolong who acted on his own. But when I saw those soldiers who were exposed because of their hidden positions fell under the enemy's guns, I was stunned. Looking at Lin Xiaolong who was still acting in violation of military orders, watching one by one the soldiers who were exposed and died under the gun because of his disobeying orders, I began to struggle in my heart. When the leader called to me for the last time: Haoyu, the duty of a soldier is to obey orders. If you don't obey orders, our entire team will be destroyed. My breathing began to become rapid, and with a hysterical shout, I pointed the gun in my hand at Lin Xiaolong, and then there was a snap, and Lin Xiaolong fell under my gun."
The Cheng family lobby was unusually quiet. Everyone was completely immersed in Cheng Haoyu's story, listening attentively and being deeply moved by it.
"We were victorious in that operation. We successfully intercepted the batch of arms and captured those who threatened national interests. However, my good brother Lin Xiaolong, his wife, and the child who just turned four years old all died in that battle. I killed my brother with my own hands. I blame myself, feel guilty, repent, and feel helpless. I cried in pain and closed myself off completely, not daring to face this reality. This incident was like a nightmare that has been haunting me. I rested in the army for a long time before my mental state gradually eased. This incident was completely buried in my heart and became a scar that I will never be able to get rid of. I am especially afraid that someone will mention the name Lin Xiaolong to me. So many years have passed, and I still can't let it go." This was the first time Zheng Xinyi saw Cheng Haoyu cry since she knew him.
"Haoyu, you are not wrong, but the situation was so critical. If you didn't make this choice, more people in your unit would have been sacrificed." Zheng Xinyi comforted him with tears in her eyes.
"So Lin Xiaoxue attacked you in order to avenge his brother." All the mysteries were finally solved, Xiao Zheng said with some sadness.
"Yes, cough cough cough." After telling such a long story, Cheng Haoyu had already felt physically exhausted, and now he was so emotional, he really couldn't hold on any longer.
"Now all the mysteries have been solved. Haoyu, it's time for you to take your medicine. Let me help you go in and rest!" As she spoke, Zheng Xinyi had already helped him up, and Cheng Haoyu turned and left with a lonely back.
After hearing the whole story, the Cheng family members were unable to digest it for a while, especially Cheng Haoyang. He didn't know how to face this story with such heartache. He just felt that Lin Xiaoxue was really a poor person.
"I will report the matter of Lin Xiaoxue. As for how to deal with her, I will discuss it with everyone at that time." Xiao Zheng said with a sigh.
"Okay, take care." Cheng Dayu was not in a good mood either.
