It was not until the end of the training that Wang Ye put aside his status as a squad leader, took off his hat, and walked to Wang Zhi with a smile. When the soldiers who had been surrounding Wang Zhi and asking him questions saw the squad leader coming, they immediately left.
"Sergeant Wang." Wang Zhi said respectfully, preparing to stand up from the ground.
Wang Ye gestured to him, "Sit down, don't be polite!" Then he sat down next to Wang Zhi, looked up at the sky, and asked softly, "The army leader has been very concerned about your situation these past few days. I've had someone report your current situation to him. I guess he's relieved to know that you've regained your spirits."
Wang Zhi hung his head in shame: "I'm sorry for causing you all trouble."
"Don't say that. Everyone gets low sometimes and feels like they can't go on any longer. But when you look back, many things are really not that big of a deal. If you make it through, you make it through. So, sometimes, people are really great and can withstand the heavy pressure given by God." Wang Ye suddenly sighed.
Wang Zhi nodded slightly. "That's right. I was able to be reborn this time, thanks to my sister-in-law's timely scolding. In fact, I think my sister-in-law is really a great woman. Sometimes, I feel ashamed of myself. After going through so much pressure, she, a woman, was able to stand up without any resentment in her heart. It's really not easy."
"The woman that our Captain Cheng likes is definitely not an ordinary person." Wang Ye patted his shoulder and said.
"Yes! The woman who can make our Captain Cheng worry so much is naturally not an ordinary person. What a pity! My sister-in-law just gave birth to a child, and Captain Cheng left without even a chance to take a look at her." When Wang Zhi said this, his eyes were a little red, and his heart still ached, and he still couldn't control the sadness.
"For me, Captain Cheng will always live in my heart and has never left." Wang Ye said as he looked at the white clouds floating across the blue sky.
Wang Zhi reached out to wipe away the tears from his eyes and swallowed. "He will always live in my heart. No matter if he is still alive or not, he will always be my battalion commander, Wang Zhi. He will be my battalion commander for life. Even if the army elects a new battalion commander in the future, he will always be number one in my heart."
Wang Ye placed a comforting hand on his shoulder. "Wang Zhi, everyone is very sad about Captain Cheng's death, so some people will inevitably be prejudiced against you. They often gossip about you and say things that are unpleasant to the ear. You don't have to pay attention to them. Just pretend you didn't hear them. I think after a while, they will come to their senses and accept the news of Captain Cheng's death, and they will naturally get better."
Wang Zhi's lips curled up slightly. "Don't worry! Squad leader, I understand what you mean. No matter what everyone says, I will accept it with pleasure. I will never be as depressed as before because I don't have the qualifications. Now I just want to be a good soldier and live a good life to repay Captain Cheng for saving my life."
Wang Ye thought that Wang Zhi would not be able to accept everyone's cold eyes and sarcasm for a while, so he came over to persuade him. Unexpectedly, he thought about the matter so deeply. As his squad leader, he really had nothing to worry about anymore.
