Gu Tinglin looked at Jiang Ning and said, "The only thing I can do is to arrange you into the Spark Project Team. I hope you can accept it."
Jiang Ning refused, "Thank you for your kindness, but I don't need it."
She didn't look at the appraisal report, but he could definitely produce it.
What is family affection? It wasn't there when she needed it most, and now it's just superfluous.
"You don't have to feel guilty or apologize." Jiang Ning said calmly, "You didn't grow up with me, but you didn't hurt me, so I don't hate you. On the contrary, from the perspective of an ordinary person, I admire your contribution to the base over the years.
Blood ties and the like are no longer important to me.
I won't carry the burden, and I don't want you to carry the mental shackles, just don't bother each other."
Her words were calm and ruthless, without any resentment, or affectation or show-off.
Only when a person is strong enough will he not ask for anything from others.
This made Gu Tinglin feel relieved, but at the same time, he couldn't help feeling lost. She had his blood in her body, but she was really just a stranger.
But he didn't force it, as long as Jiang Ning lived a good life.
Next, they talked about the issue of Song Yaling and her daughter. He did not consult Jiang Ning's opinion, but made the decision on his own.
Whether Jiang Ning admits it or not, Song Yaling is her biological mother, the woman who gave her life.
The mistake Song Yaling made is unforgivable, but Gu Tinglin also knows Jiang Ning's character very well, and she will not let this mother and daughter go.
If they were simply driven out of the base, Jiang Ning would kill them all in a fit of rage.
It may seem like you have gotten rid of your anger, but in reality you will have to carry the shackles with you for the rest of your life.
He didn't want Jiang Ning to be responsible for the crime of murdering his mother, so he sent Song Yaling to Jiacheng base overnight.
Xiao Tang will hand over the case to the official base, and the crimes committed by the mother and daughter at the military base will be handled according to relevant procedures.
Life and death are your own responsibility.
Jiang Ning frowned slightly at his actions, but didn't say anything.
In the end of the world after a natural disaster, dying instantly is the best relief.
Song Yaling and Chen Yanfei are just two dodders. They have no ability to protect themselves without men. Living is the best torture for them.
Jiang Ning had seen many miserable women who were unable to protect themselves. They used their bodies to exchange for food, but were treated like animals by the devils. They were repeatedly humiliated, abused and beaten. In the end, they got fed up and ended up being turned into two-legged sheep.
So, this result is pretty good.
To be frank, Jiang Ning would not recognize Gu Tinglin, and Gu Tinglin accepted it calmly.
He stared at his daughter for a long time, and sighed deeply after a while, "Take good care of yourself, the natural disaster will pass, and never give up hope."
Jiang Ning stood up and left, but stopped at the door again, "Did you give Song Yaling a jade pendant before?"
Gu Tinglin did give it.
That was passed down from Gu's ancestors. At that time, Song Yaling kept crying and pestering him to stop him from going on the mission, but military orders could not be disobeyed.
Their love grew deep and they had already discussed marriage in private. Gu Tinglin promised her that he would come back to get the marriage certificate after completing the task.
To express his sincerity, he gave her the jade pendant passed down from his ancestors.
Jiang Ning was a little dazed, and was silent for a while before he said, "That jade pendant accompanied me as I grew up, and then it was accidentally broken. Sorry, I can't return it to its owner."
It's a pity that the jade pendant is gone, but God has given him the best gift.
Gu Tinglin smiled, "It's okay, as long as you are healthy and safe."
Jiang Ning thought for a moment and said, "You really don't need to feel guilty because you have already left the best for me."
Even though she didn't want to acknowledge her relatives, she had to admit that if she hadn't been protected by the space, she might have died long ago.
The space has already recognized its owner, and returning it is impossible.
Gu Tinglin may not know the secret of the jade pendant, but the benefits Jiang Ning got were real.
She looked at Gu Tinglin, cleared her throat and said, "Don't always put public interests before private interests. You are also a living person. There is nothing wrong with thinking more about yourself.
Only if you survive and live well can you shoulder greater responsibilities."
She cares about him? Gu Tinglin felt a warm current in his heart, "Okay."
Jiang Ning took a deep breath, turned and left.
Along the way, she stared at the scenery outside the car window in a daze.
Back in Area B, Jiang Ning sat on the balcony, sipping the fruit wine he brewed. "The jade pendant is a family heirloom of the Gu family. Gu Tinglin didn't know there was a space inside."
Huo Yishen asked, "What are your plans?"
What could Jiang Ning plan? He couldn't peel off the space and return it to Gu Tinglin. "I feel a little uncomfortable. I feel like I owe him."
Having slept in the same bed for many years, Huo Yishen still understood her well.
She didn't acknowledge him verbally, but in her heart she had already accepted Gu Tinglin.
Despite the natural disasters she experienced, she was often cold-blooded and ruthless, but who can be truly heartless?
There is still a desire for family affection.
It’s just that reality is cruel and Song Yaling is selfish, but Gu Tinglin is different. Before meeting Jiang Ning, he didn’t know about his daughter’s existence.
In the face of natural disasters, he had to consider the overall situation and naturally had no time to take care of his small family, but he secretly did everything he could to take care of them.
If there was no love, he wouldn't have to do this.
But Jiang Ning’s choice was not wrong. What if he recognized Gu Tinglin?
Will he put aside the responsibilities on his shoulders, live just for his family, and do everything he can to compensate Jiang Ning?
Gu Tinglin couldn't do it, and Jiang Ning couldn't ask him to do so.
After talking it out, both parties will feel less burdened and can just do their best for their own choices.
The days passed like this, with all important supplies kept in the space.
The furniture in the yard is all broken, so if a collision occurs one day, it won’t be a pity to throw it away.
The disaster that people were worried about did not come, but a strange woman came to the courtyard.
He looked to be about 37 or 38 years old, with neat short hair, wearing a simple loose shirt and a pair of army green trousers.
Quite mature and stable, but seems a little uneasy.
She hesitated for a long time before knocking on the gate.
Jiang Ning stood on the second floor and watched, with no intention of going downstairs.
But the other party seemed very persistent and waited at the door without leaving.
Huo Yishen reminded, "Judging from the way she stands, she should be an auxiliary soldier."
Auxiliary soldiers, strictly speaking, are not real soldiers.
For example, employees of the arsenal, doctors of the military hospital, artists of the military art troupe, etc.
The person who came here must have something to ask if he could wait so long.
Jiang Ning went downstairs and opened the door. "What do you want to talk to us about?"
The visitor looked up and was a little surprised when he saw Jiang Ning's facial features, but he quickly regained his composure, "Are you Jiang Ning?"
Jiang Ning didn't say anything.
The other party looked embarrassed and explained, "Hello, I am Shu Xueqing, the head nurse of the inpatient department of the base hospital."
Jiang Ning asked again, "What do you want to talk to me about?"
"Your father... Chief Gu is ill and in the hospital, did you know?"
Shu Xueqing changed her words quickly, but Jiang Ning was not deaf, and immediately stared at her warily, "Who are you?"
