Those dead comrades appeared in front of Shen Sa's eyes, his eyes were red.Fortunately, it was already dark, and the growth officer would not see it.

Taking a breath, Shen Sa controlled her voice, and said as calmly as possible: "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have petty emotions."

"It's normal to have small emotions, but it's not normal if you don't have them." Cheng Lie looked at her with a smile, his eyes were gentle and full of tolerance: "You are still young, you shouldn't face death in the first place."

"..." Shen Sa couldn't speak, but felt sore and swollen in her heart, and wanted to cry a little.

But she can't cry.

As a soldier, one cannot shed tears easily.

"Shen Sa, you are already very good." Cheng Lie said affirmatively.

Shen Sa raised her head, bit her lips hard, so as not to shed tears: "Thank you, Chief Officer."

"Call me brother." Cheng Lie reminded.

"Mmm...brother." Shen Sa quickly lowered her head, her face blushing again.

"Take a break. If you can still walk, walk forward. If you can't walk, rest at the same place." Cheng Lie said, sitting down on the ground next to him.

Shen Sa let out an "um" and sat down slowly.

The two sat facing each other, but neither said anything.

Shen Sa was not a person who was good at communicating with people. As a man, Cheng Lie was much older than Shen Sa, so he would not take the initiative to find topics with Shen Sa.

The two were relatively silent, and after a while, Shen Sa said: "Brother... I have rested."

"Okay." Cheng Lie nodded and stood up.

The injury on Shen Sa's leg is slowly recovering in the past few days, but her movements are still not so neat.

Cheng Lie waited patiently without urging or helping.

Shen Sa knew that it was for her own good not to help.

If Cheng Lie came to help her every time, when would she be able to walk completely on her own strength?

In this case, she didn't have that much time to allow herself to recover slowly.

She needs to get better as soon as possible, so that she won't drag the chief back when necessary.

She also thought about it, if she really came across a critical moment, she would absolutely not allow herself to be a drag.

Cheng Lie watched Shen Sa gritted his teeth and stood up straight, his eyes flashed with admiration.

The moon climbed up the treetops, and there was a faint light in the forest. From this point of view, Shen Sa's outline was more similar to Tang Xiao.

If she didn't speak, he could just stare at her quietly as another person.

Even her resolute unyielding spirit reminded him of Tang Xiao's rehabilitation process when he fell down and got up again and again when he was hospitalized with a leg injury last time.

What is Xiaoxiao doing now?

If there were no accidents, Xiaoxiao should have been working in Yan Ling's nursing home.

Can she adapt to the working environment there?Will she like the new job?

Cheng Lie asked himself in his heart, but quickly gave himself the answer.

She'll get used to it, and she won't dislike it.

Compared to staying at home as a housewife, Xiaoxiao is obviously more willing to work in her old profession.

Although in the nursing home, there is not much room for her to play.

But, at least, she was able to be a doctor again.

That silly woman must really miss him, right?
The corners of Cheng Lie's mouth raised slightly, and he pictured Tang Xiao lying on the bed and thinking about himself in his mind.

Silly woman, I miss you too, very, very much.

If there is any wish for him at this moment, then his biggest wish is to see her again.

Look no further than that.

He really missed her so much, and wanted to put her in his arms and give her a good kiss.

However, he must restrain his longing for her in order to regain his sanity, otherwise, he can only indulge in this deep-seated longing and cannot extricate himself from it.

In Cheng Meng's room.

Perhaps what sister-in-law Tang Xiao said had an effect, Cheng Meng and Pete's conversation on the phone became more and more enjoyable.

At this moment, Cheng Meng's face is filled with a happy smile, and he doesn't look like he was worried about love just now.

While chatting, Cheng Meng couldn't help coquettishly to Pete again: "Honey, when are you coming to see me? People miss you..."

Cheng Meng's voice was clear and melodious, but at this moment she wanted to be coquettish and cute, her voice was so cute that it made people want to rub her into her arms.

She was confident that Peter would fall for it, maybe the next morning... no, maybe later, Peter couldn't help but come to her in his new McLaren.

If Pete came, was she going to keep him overnight?

Cheng Meng blushed and pondered.

She was so sure that Pete would come to her, but she never expected——

"Sorry, Mengmeng, I may not be able to see you during this time." Pete's apologetic voice came from the phone.

Cheng Meng woke up like a dream, and asked in disbelief: "Why? Why don't you come to see me? What are you going to do?"

In her impression, Pete always spends a lot of time with her, and Pete has never worried about money, so, in her opinion, Pete should have a career that doesn't make him worry too much.

Now, is Pete going to work?

Cheng Meng found it hard to accept.

"Mengmeng, I plan to go back to China for a while..." Pete carefully discussed with Chengmeng: "Baby, you won't be angry, right? Listen to me, originally I wanted to take you back together, it just so happened I went to see the place where I grew up with you, but I didn't expect that you would suddenly get sick, sorry baby... I should have stayed with you, just... I know I was wrong, honey, I will soon Come back, during this time, we talk on the phone and video every day, okay?"

"..."

Cheng Meng fell into a long silence.

Pete didn't dare to speak, and didn't know what to say, so he could only choose to wait quietly for Cheng Meng to speak again.

After a long time, Cheng Meng asked softly: "Peter, don't you love me anymore?"

Her tone was so relaxed, and she seemed to be trying her best to restrain the turbulent waves in her heart.

Yes, deep down, she was terrified.

When Peter carefully said that long paragraph to her, she felt that Peter was planning to leave her.

The feeling of losing someone is very familiar to Cheng Meng.

She thought about it for a while, and finally remembered.

Oh... By the way, it was almost the same feeling when she lost Bai Luning.

My heart hurts so much that I can't breathe.

However, that kind of heart-piercing will never happen to her again.

Cheng Meng secretly warned herself to be a decent and elegant woman.

She can be coquettish and cute to the man she loves, but if the man doesn't love her anymore, then she must retain the last dignity and pride.

This is not only the pride of her alone, but also the pride of the married family.

She has grown up - she is no longer the little girl who lost her soul for love and was so painful that she couldn't help herself.

"What? My dear, why do you think so?"

Pete's startled voice came.

"I'm sorry... Did I say something that misunderstood you? Honey, I love you, I swear, I never fell in love with a second woman besides you—"

"Then why are you leaving all of a sudden?"

Cheng Meng's voice remained calm.

She didn't believe what Peter said, she only trusted her intuition.

The scene that she deliberately forgot appeared before her eyes again.

Pete... Maybe he can no longer believe what he said.

"Honey, I don't want to lie to you, but I can't explain this to you clearly—in short, I have something very important to go back right away, but I promise you, Mengmeng, I will soon will be back—”

"Peter, I guess, you probably won't come back." Cheng Meng said coldly.

"No, Mengmeng, don't say such things, I will come back, unless you don't want to see me again." Pete said eagerly.

Hearing this, Cheng Meng suddenly gave a low laugh.

The laughter seemed to be self-deprecating, but also a wry smile.

"Peter, I saw that last time. You...you like kids, you like little blonde girls, you liar...!"

As if a gap had been torn out from a tightly wrapped body deep in her heart, Cheng Meng shouted with all her strength.

This time, it was Pete who fell into a long silence.

The longer he was silent, the more despair Cheng Meng felt.

In many cases, silence means acquiescence.

When she recalled that scene countless times, she hoped that she was wrong, or there was some misunderstanding in the middle.

But, no... It seems that this is not a misunderstanding.

Pete likes little girls - it's true.

If she could, she wished she hadn't inadvertently looked at Pete's computer screen that day.

The video played there showed several foreign men doing something that was worse than a beast to a teenage blond girl.

Most importantly, Cheng Meng seems to have seen Pete flashing past in the video.

What kind of role does he play in it?
Although the figure suspected to be Pete was the only well-dressed man among the men inside.But if that man was really Pete, then Pete would definitely be involved in hurting the little girl.

It's against the law, doesn't Pete know?

Cheng Meng had been suffering for many days because of this matter. Just recently, she was trying to convince herself bit by bit that the man in it had nothing to do with Pete. Don't all foreign men have such tall bodies?

Just a fleeting figure, maybe not Pete at all.

She kept assuring herself that Pete was still the Pete she loved.

She deluded herself to think that as long as she tried her best to forget about it, then it could really be treated as if it never happened.

But it can't.

It's like a time bomb, as long as she and Pete are together, sooner or later this bomb will destroy their love.

"Mengmeng, you misunderstood. As I said, the only person I like is you."

After an unknown period of time, Pete's voice came from the phone again.

It sounded like he was very calm and was not affected by Cheng Meng's words at all.

But Cheng Meng instinctively felt something was wrong.
