After a long time, Qin Fei was already very old. He and Xi Yuan had already lived on the Earth Planet, helping to look after their grandchildren. They watched their relatives and friends pass away one by one, and finally, he had to say goodbye to his old friend Wen He.

After receiving the call, Qin Fei immediately packed up and took a spaceship with Xi Yuan to the main planet. His six children heard about it and came to Wen He's residence one after another. Because of the relationship between Qin Fei and Wen He, they have maintained friendly exchanges over the years.

When they arrived, they saw that his large courtyard was full of insects. Most of the people here were Wenhe's descendants, as well as some of his friends and comrades-in-arms, making this not-so-small courtyard seem even smaller.

When they walked in, they saw a row of tall insects in military uniforms surrounding the bed. When they saw Qin Fei, they stepped back and made a path for it to pass. When they arrived in front of Wen He's bed, they saw that he had a thin tube inserted in his nose and two wires on his head connected to his temples on both sides.

When Wen He saw Qin Fei coming in, he was obviously shocked and actually sat up on the bed by himself. The bug beside him took a big pillow and put it behind him so that he could lean more comfortably. Wen He took a breath, pulled off the small tube on his nose, and said in a loud voice: "You are here."

The surrounding insects did not show any happiness when seeing this, but instead looked sad. The insect that was weak and seemed to be dying just now is now so energetic, which can only make people think of one word - last gasp.

"Yes, I came to see you. We have to see each other again. I'm here to see you off."

"Okay, that's great, I thought I couldn't see him anymore. You all go out, I have already explained everything I need to explain, I want to talk to him." He glanced around and spoke slowly.

"Hero father!"

The male insect with red eyes beside him shouted. His hair had already turned gray, and the wrinkles on his face showed that he was no longer young.

"Okay, don't make me say it again, all of you get out."

Seeing this, Qin Fei signaled Xi Yuan and Qin Zong beside him to go out together. Xi Yuan glanced at the two of them, without saying much, and immediately turned around and left the room.

With him taking the lead, the other insects also left one after another. Seeing that everyone had left, Qin Fei pulled a chair to the bedside, sat on the chair, and smiled slightly.

"You are the last old friend I sent away. Now there are only you and me left."

"I will be leaving soon, and you will be the only one left. But I think you won't be lonely for long, because you still have Xi Yuan."

"Yeah, and Xi Yuan, do you have anything to say to me?"

"Yes, of course. I want to know why you wanted to find out about me in the first place. And you have been secretly taking care of me for so many years. In the military, you also told them to help take care of me. Can I know the reason? I am very sure that you don't have that kind of idea about me."

The wrinkles on Wenhe's face have become very deep, but his eyes are still bright and sharp, penetrating into people's hearts.

Qin Fei was silent for a long time, and then he suddenly laughed out loud: "I thought I had kept it a secret, but you knew it. When did you know it?"

"It was confirmed when I transferred to the First Military Academy. I was given special care by some instructors in my previous academy. I asked my family, but they didn't ask the instructors to take care of me. At that time, two instructors taught me everything they knew, but I didn't do anything."

"So it's that early."

"So I want to know what the reason is? I just can't figure it out."

Don't understand? I guess I wouldn't understand either. "You're really patient. It's been so long that you asked me."

"I thought I was going to take this question to my coffin, but when I saw you just now, I suddenly wanted to ask."

"Do you remember what happened when you woke up in the lifeboat?"

Wen He was thinking hard, and suddenly he thought of something and his pupils suddenly dilated.

Qin Fei nodded and said in Chinese: "Hello, let me introduce myself first. My name is Qin Fei, and I am from China on Earth."

"you--!!!"

Wen He suddenly lost his voice, with an excited look on his face. He grabbed Qin Fei's arm and held it tightly. Did he hear it wrongly? Did he not hallucinate? What did he hear! ?

Qin Fei patted his hands, signaling him not to get too excited.

"You heard it right, there's nothing wrong with your ears." He said this in Mandarin.

Wen He took a few deep breaths and finally calmed down: "I didn't expect that I could hear familiar words before I died." He also said this in Mandarin, but he had been here for so long, and like Qin Fei, his tone had changed a little compared to before.

"Yeah, when I heard what you said at that time, I also found it incredible." He felt something was wrong at first, and kept asking about him until he got a video of Wen He excitedly in the mecha, in which he said two words in Chinese: Awesome! Other insects might think that these were just meaningless characters, but for Qin Fei, they confirmed his guess.

"What era are you from?"

“I came here in 1960.”

"I came after you, in 2xxx, more than 70 years after the founding of New China."

"What about us later?" Wenhe grabbed the quilt tightly with his other hand.

"In the beginning, it was very poor, with nothing... Then it slowly developed. In the 1980s, reform and opening up took place, and the economy developed rapidly. By the time I came, China had become the world's number one economy. Although it is not yet a developed country, some places are better than developed countries. Overall, it is very good, much better than before. At least basically no one will starve to death due to poverty, and children can go to school. After the nine-year compulsory education, they can continue their studies or choose to go out to work. After going out, as long as they are not afraid of hard work and hardship, they can find a job to support themselves, and there is pension insurance when they are old..."

Qin Fei talked a lot, from economy to politics, from politics to people's livelihood, Wen He listened attentively with a smile on his face. For him, it was a great comfort to hear that his country was liberated and developed so well.

"That sounds good."

"Yes, it is because of your efforts that we are here today. You are a soldier, right?"

"Is it obvious?"

"It's mainly because I discovered your flaws at the beginning, but you've changed a lot since then. If I hadn't paid extra attention to you, I probably wouldn't have noticed your suspicious flaws."

"So you have been taking care of me so much just to take care of your fellow countrymen?" When he said this, his eyes seemed to be shining, and he felt a lot more relaxed, as if some shackles had been removed. As the saying goes, when fellow countrymen meet, their eyes will be filled with tears. Although the two of them did not shed tears, Wenhe still felt that his floating heart was extremely solid at this moment. He was not alone, he had a companion. Even if this companion had not told him his identity before, he could know it before he died. He felt that he could really die without regrets.

It would be even better if I could go back and take another look at the beautiful new China he talked about.

"Do you know the Ma family? After hesitating for a while, Wen He couldn't help but ask him this question."

Qin Fei shook his head: "I was just a small clerk, studying and working in Beijing, and my family is not from there. I really haven't heard of it, and I don't pay attention to it."

"I know the hope is slim, but I still hold out hope. What if you are from my neighborhood?" He said, with worry and relief on his face. "I am worried that they didn't survive the disaster. My family was born in that period and would have been persecuted."

After he said this, Qin Fei also fell silent.

Before he could persuade him to say anything, Wenhe had already let it go on his own.

"Everyone has their own fate. Maybe things are not as bad as I thought. They are not the kind of people who will sit back and wait for death. Especially my eldest brother. He is very similar to my father. They are both smart. I don't think anything serious will happen to him."

…………………………………………………………………………

They talked a lot. They introduced their identities, hometowns, and customs on Earth to each other. They talked about every topic with gusto. They talked like this for most of the day. Wen He's spirit slowly weakened. Qin Fei watched and grasped his hands weakly.

"It's my turn now. Call them in and say a few words. I'm leaving now. Don't be too sad. I've lived for so many years and I'm already very satisfied. After all, we were supposed to live only a few decades, but now I've lived for hundreds of years. That's enough. I've done so many things and completed everything I wanted to do. I basically have no regrets. But it's really nice to have a fellow countryman around me and not have discovered the Earth. That's really great."

Yes, it is great that I can have a companion who is also a human being in this foreign planet, and there is no Earth where humans are found. With a companion, my heart is at peace. If the Earth has not been discovered, the humans on Earth will not be driven away and invaded by the powerful Zerg as aliens. It is great.

The insects that had been lingering outside came in one after another.

When Wen He saw them, he forced himself to stay awake and repeated what he had said before. Finally, he looked at his descendants, grandchildren, wives and concubines one by one, and slowly closed his eyes.

A deafening cry rang out——

Qin Fei staggered backwards a few times, and Xi Yuan supported his body from behind, holding his waist tightly.

Qin Fei put his hand on Xi Yuan's hand on his waist, patted it gently, and then held it tightly.

The cries of these insects were basically sincere. They were truly saddened by the passing of this male insect. As a marshal, he led his soldiers to achieve many immortal feats. As a male lord, he respected and loved the female insects around him, and treated the female servants around him equally. Moreover, he did not have any bad habits that were not worthy of mention towards them. Although he did not say any love words, he did take care of them and understand them, and fulfilled his responsibilities as a male lord very well.

As a male father, he always appears as a strict father to his children, but being a strict father does not mean that he does not love his children. He also plans their futures according to their interests, hobbies, talents and potential. Moreover, he does not treat his female insect cubs as tools for marriage. He truly treats them equally. They also respect their male father very much. As an idol of the public, needless to say, he has set an example for many male insects to turn back and strive for self-improvement. His deeds accompany them as they grow up.

Qin Fei and Xi Yuan returned to Planet Earth after attending Wen He's funeral. As soon as they returned to Planet Earth, Qin Fei fell ill. This time, his descendants nervously returned to his bedside. Qin Fei unceremoniously drove back those insects that shouldn't be here. It's normal to have minor ailments from time to time when you're old, and they will heal after a period of time. However, his old age became more obvious.

Xi Yuan took care of him closely, and when he recovered from his illness, Xi Yuan also lost several pounds.

In the end, the two of them looked at each other's aging, feeling sad and upset at the same time.

He is old, and he is old too. They have fulfilled their original vow - to grow old together and be together forever.

"Xi Yuan, have I never said three words to you?"

Xi Yuan thought of something and his heartbeat began to accelerate.

"Which three words do you mean?"

"I love you."

Xi Yuan put his hand on his heart, feeling the frequency of losing control: "You never said it, but I felt it at ordinary times. Do you feel mine? I love you too."

"Um."

Silence is better than words at this time.

At this time, Qin Zong and Qin Qian walked in and saw the two of them holding hands and sticking together. They also had white hair on their heads. They looked at each other and smiled helplessly. There is a pair of fathers who like to show their love all the time. Sometimes I really feel that my eyes are blinded by the glare.

"Father Xiong, your 920th birthday will be coming soon." Qin Zong and Qin Qian directly stated their purpose. It would be better not to act like a third wheel at this time.

The two of them are old and have retired long ago. The grandchildren of Qin Fei are now in charge, and the two of them stay on the Earth Planet to raise the cubs. Qin Zong has two male cubs and five female cubs. The cubs they have given birth to now add up to ten digits. Qin Qian has one male cub and four female cubs. The grandchildren they gave birth to also add up to single digits. With some of the great grandchildren, there are now five minors living on the Earth Planet. Because they have to educate them, the four old people will not feel bored, but feel that they have something to do, which is more to their liking.

Qin Lang and Lin Zishu passed away one after another when Qin Fei was more than 400 years old. Before they passed away, they looked at the room full of Qin's descendants. They both died very happily. Qin Fei now has similar emotions.

My time is almost up, but when I see my descendants and grandchildren full of vigor and vitality, I feel satisfied.

"We just need to get together as a family, have a meal and chat."

Qin Zong nodded without objection. From a long time ago, Xiong's father had refused to hold various banquets on the grounds that he was old and didn't like noise. He had long been accustomed to it.

"Okay, I won't bother you anymore, you guys continue." After saying that, Qin Zong wanted to leave, but was stopped by Qin Qian: "Ai, wait a minute."

"What is it?"

"Do you think I came to you just to ask about the arrangements for Father Xiong's birthday banquet?" Qin Qian rolled his eyes at his brother.

"Father Xiong, I want to ask for your opinion on the small bridge."

"What does he think?"

"He wants to leave the Sibokai family and live with Xiaosheng in the future."

"If he made the decision after careful consideration, I respect his opinion. Our Qin family still has enough to feed the two of them."

"Okay, I'll tell him."

Qin Qiao was his youngest female insect. She had been pampered since she was little and had grown up smoothly. However, she had encountered a setback in her search for a male master.

"Then let's follow his advice. As far as I remember, the Spokey family is just a third-rate family, right?"

"Yes, I agreed to let them be together because he was good to Xiaoqiao. I didn't expect that Neili had always been resentful towards Xiaoqiao."

"Let Xiaoqiao come back and live here. There are plenty of houses in the Qin family mansion." Qin Zong also spoke: "I will ask them to take care of the Sibokai family." Qin Qian nodded, sighed, and went out. Qin Zong followed him out.

"Why are you frowning? Your children and grandchildren will have their own blessings." Xi Yuan reached out and smoothed Qin Fei's brows.

"Yes, children and grandchildren have their own blessings. Xiaoqiao still has the Qin family, brothers, and a child. He can live his life as usual."

"Yes, we are of such age now, and our children are all good. Our life will not be bad at all." Xi Yuan agreed.

After half a month, the main house of the Qin family welcomed the young masters back home. They came back to celebrate the 920th birthday of the oldest master.

There is a huge round table in the hall, which is now full. There are more than sixty people sitting at it. Qin Fei sits in the main seat, watching them say blessings in a lively manner, drinking the wine offered by Qin Zongjing, and smiling at Xi Yuan. The children have all started their own families and careers, but standing by him, there is only each other.
