Chapter 0 Extra 18 Yang Shengjun changes career
After waiting for a long time, Chang Yin slowly replied, "I don't know. I had doubts about Wei Xin before, but I didn't do anything because I wanted to find her employer."
Yang Shengjun smiled sadly, "Originally, I thought she was my salvation. I was tortured by my stepmother since I was a child, and my life was very hard. I have been supporting myself since I was 7 years old.
At that time, Wei Xin often wandered around the village alone.
Yang Shengjun laughed at this and said, "I'm so stupid. Yes, at that time she always said that she couldn't make ends meet at home, but it seemed that she never had to go up the mountain to dig wild vegetables or collect firewood.
How could I not have noticed it at that time? I never even thought about it later. In addition to going up the mountain to find food myself, I also had to frequently collect firewood and dig wild vegetables for her.
Chang Yin listened silently without saying a word.
Yang Shengjun continued, "When I grew up, she said she envied those who served in the army. She looked at me with her big eyes and asked me, 'Ajun, are you willing to serve in the army?'
If you join the army, I can marry you."
"I was very happy at that time, but I knew that being a soldier was not easy. I asked her, if I didn't join the army, would you not marry me?
She cried and said that given my current situation, her mother would never agree to marry her to me. I knew she was right, so I resolutely joined the army.
Chang Yin didn't know what to say to him. "In all these years, you've never doubted me?"
This is also where Yang Shengjun feels he has failed the most. For so many years, he has only cared about loving her and never thought that she would betray him. Yang Shengjun smiled sarcastically, "Yeah, tell me if I am stupid or not. She often takes the family money back to her parents' home, saying that life is not easy at home. Although her mother doesn't like her, she has a little nephew at home. His eldest brother has been very good to her since she was a child.
I didn’t expect that what she said was good was so good.”
Chang Yin didn't want to listen anymore. As a grown man, he couldn't always dwell on the past. He had to always look forward.
"What are your plans?"
Yang Shengjun didn't look at Chang Yin. "What else can I do? After this incident, I definitely can't stay in the army anymore. I should retire."
Chang Yin nodded and patted Yang Shengjun on the shoulder. "Are you still going to see her? The higher-ups have issued the order, but Commander Kang has been resisting the pressure and hasn't carried it out."
Yang Shengjun shook his head. He didn't want to go. He didn't know what to say to Wei Xin when he saw her again. Hate her? Actually, no. For so many years, he had given all his love to Wei Xin. He didn't know how to hate him.
But he was heartbroken, as if his heart had been ripped out, it hurt so much. Even the tough guy who wouldn't make a sound even if he was shot several times couldn't help but groan as he covered his chest.
"No. I don't believe in the same things as her. I'm not the one she wants to love. From now on, that's it."
Chang Yin knew his decision and would tell Master Kang later. Master Kang could finally get rid of this heavy burden. As for Lao Yang, hey, let's use our connections to find him a better place.
Yang Shengjun continued, "Did you find out about the informant in the army?"
Chang Yin nodded, "It's Chef Zhang from the cafeteria."
Yang Shengjun was only slightly surprised for a moment, then he smiled. If his lover, with whom he had lived for ten years, could be a spy, what about others?
"Old Chang, I won't give up!"
Chang Yin could clearly hear Yang Shengjun choking up as he said this. That's right. All the military merits he'd earned through fighting on the battlefield were completely useless because of this family situation. Not only that, he was forced to retire.
How can Yang Shengjun be summed up with just one word: miserable?
Kyoto Military District Compound
Commander Han had been back from the battlefield for several days and had completed all the necessary reports and summaries. Today he finally returned home. Zhang Xiuping happily stood at the door waiting for Han Rushong to return home.
She was followed by two men in their 30s. Upon closer inspection, both men bore a resemblance to Zhang Xiuping.
"Mom, why don't we go inside and wait? It's too cold outside." After the eldest son Han Zhengxian said this, the second son Han Zhengfeng immediately took over.
"Yes, Mom, you're not in good health to begin with. Dad knows it all. He'll definitely be worried about you when he sees you freezing outside."
Zhang Xiuping said with a smile, "Your father has been gone for several years. I heard that he almost didn't come back. He endured so much and still persevered. What's wrong with us waiting for a while?"
As she spoke, she turned around and glared at her two sons, "You two, hold yourselves tight. Your father has made great contributions this time. He has reached the highest level of promotion. In the end, the benefits will fall on you two.
Don't miss the opportunity to show off when it's your turn, or you'll make him unhappy and suffer the consequences."
Han Zhengxian and Han Zhengfeng immediately shut up. They both knew a secret, but they would never reveal it. Their father could only be Han Zhengsong, Commander Han.
Only Han Zhengsong could give them what they wanted. Because of Han Zhengsong's status, they didn't know how much help they had received from the outside world. Now that Han Zhengsong was so old and had returned to the battlefield, and had made countless military achievements, wouldn't all these benefits belong to them, his brothers?
Smiles spread across their faces. A military vehicle slowly drove towards them and stopped in front of Zhang Xiuping.
The guard immediately got out of the car and opened the door for Commander Han. Commander Han got out of the car with dignity. Zhang Xiuping immediately stepped forward and said, "Old Han, welcome home."
Han Zhengxian and Han Zhengsong rushed forward and shouted, "Dad, you're back."
Han Rusong glanced at the three of them calmly and took the lead as he entered the courtyard. The guard and two soldiers followed closely behind him.
Zhang Xiuping and her two sons looked at each other. They didn't understand what was wrong with Old Han. He didn't seem happy at all.
"Come in, I have something to say." Han Rushong sat down in the room. The three men had not entered yet.
Zhang Xiuping was the first to enter the room. She asked tentatively, "Old Han, what happened? You seem unhappy."
Han Zhengxian and Han Zhengfeng stood behind Zhang Xiuping without saying a word. In fact, they were afraid of this father from the bottom of their hearts.
Han Rusong gestured, and a guard handed a brown paper bag to Zhang Xiuping. "Auntie, take a look at this."
Zhang Xiuping was literate. She took the paper bag from the guard and took out a few sheets of paper. The more she looked, the paler her face became. Finally, she staggered back several steps, and it was Han Zhengxian who supported her from behind.
Han Zhengxian looked concerned, "Mom, what's wrong with you?"
Zhang Xiuping's face turned pale as he murmured, "Impossible, this is absolutely impossible. No, it's not like that."
Then she looked at Han Rusong eagerly, "Old Han, these are all fake, all fake, don't believe them, don't believe them."
Han Zhengxian and Han Zhengfeng immediately took the information from Zhang Xiuping's hand. After seeing the content, their faces suddenly turned pale.
