A week later, thanks to the efforts of the country, Chu Liangchen's body was finally sent back across the ocean.
Lu Xia and Jiang Junmo went to his farewell ceremony together, dressed in black.
Here, Lu Xia met many classmates and people she had met during her internship at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
There was solemnity and regret on everyone's face.
The same goes for Lu Xia.
She can still remember Chu Liangchen, who tried hard to catch up with her in learning English.
Chu Liangchen, whose face is full of ambition and who intends to serve his motherland.
Chu Liangchen, who came to sympathize with her after learning that she was not accepted by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs...
To some extent, Chu Liangchen was working in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs together with Lu Xia's ideals.
But Lu Xia didn't expect that he would leave in this way.
...
...
He sacrificed his life in the post he loved most. He realized his ideal, devoted his all to the motherland, and died alone. ..
Lu Xia admired this pure patriotism.
Of course, there is more regret and pity, especially knowing that he was killed by someone else's wooden cannon on his way to a meeting abroad...
Ordinary people often envy the glamorous profession of diplomat, but they don’t know that this is a profession full of dangers at all times.
That’s why they are so admirable!
When leaving the funeral home, Lu Xia looked back at Chu Liangchen's photo for the last time.
He still looks so young in the photo, his eyes full of confidence, just like the first time I saw him confidently introducing himself in English at the podium.
She thought, she would always remember him, this dazzling man who would always live at the best age...
…
Lu Xia was in a low mood for a long time after Chu Liangchen's death. Jiang Junmo also knew her regret, so he always looked for opportunities to comfort her.
In fact, it was not just Lu Xia. The teachers in the office were also very sad at work.
Most of these teachers had taught Chu Liangchen before, and they thought that a bright and glorious life was waiting for him, but they did not expect that he would leave in this way.
Especially Teacher Li, as her beloved disciple, she cried several times for his sacrifice.
It wasn't until a month later that Lu Xia finally recovered.
It was also at this time that she received a call from Lu Qiu.
Lu Dong was released early because of his outstanding performance in there.
After hearing this, Lu Xia was silent for a moment, then said he understood. The next day, he asked for leave and went with Lu Qiu to pick him up.
Seeing Lu Dong again, Lu Xia felt a little emotional. He seemed to have aged a lot after all these years. He was obviously a few years younger than Lu Xia, but he looked older.
When Lu Dong came out and saw the two of them, he took a while to react before calling out, "Second sister, third sister."
Lu Xia was silent for a moment, then responded with a "hmm". However, Lu Qiu rushed over and hugged him and burst into tears.
Lu Xia waited for a while, and when he saw that they had calmed down a little, he said, "Let's go first and eat something."
The two then wiped their tears and left together.
Afterwards, they found a restaurant, ordered some dishes, and asked about Lu Dong's experiences there over the years.
Lu Dong didn't say anything, just talked about daily ideological education, labor, and doing some work. Lu Qiu wanted to cry again after hearing that.
Lu Dong was much more sensible this time. Seeing this, he hurriedly comforted her: "I'm fine, Third Sister, look, I still made some money."
As he said this, he took out the money he had saved through labor. There were no big bills, just a few cents a piece. Seeing this made Lu Qiu want to cry even more.
Finally, Lu Xia comforted her: "Don't cry yet, it's good to be out. Let's eat first. Have a good meal to celebrate your new life."
After hearing this, Lu Qiu said: "Yes, yes, eat something good, Xiaodong, eat more!"
Then I quickly picked up some meat for him.
