Gu Juncheng looked at the man on the stage, the man who said "I'm tired, go take a rest", without blinking, and even though Xiaotian kept pushing him, he seemed not to notice.

The host walked onto the stage with a big smile on his face, stood beside Lin Qingping, and held her arm affectionately. He then faced all the officers, soldiers, and their families and asked, "Everyone, do you think the singing was good?"

"Okay——" The whole audience roared.

The host asked again, "Is the night view of the naval port beautiful?"

"beautiful--"

"Tonight's 'Naval Port Night' is our signature program! Our comrade Lin, on behalf of all family members, dedicates a hymn to our island. Thank you, Comrade Lin, for your soulful performance!" the host said passionately.

There was still thunderous applause from the audience.

When the applause died down a bit, the host asked Lin Qingping, "Comrade Lin, this is your first time to visit our island. May I ask, Comrade Lin, do you think our island is beautiful? Do you think our island is good?"

Lin Qingping's eyes swept across the faces in the audience, and finally landed on Gu Juncheng's face. She took the microphone and a clear voice came out of it, "Someone told me that we are in the middle of the sea, surrounded by the sea water. In addition to the sunset and the beach, there is endless loneliness and solitude on the island."

She paused for a moment and saw that someone's face in the audience was extremely stiff, and the audience was now completely silent.

Lin Qingping continued, "What I want to say is, brothers, can you please close your eyes?"

No one knew what she was going to do, and few people listened to her.

Lin Qingping said lightly, "Close your eyes and imagine what our parents are doing, what our relatives and friends are doing, and what our fellow villagers are doing in our hometown at this moment."

When the officers and soldiers below the stage heard this, they were stunned, and half of them listened to her and closed their eyes.

Lin Qingping's voice was as gentle and warm as the sea breeze at that moment. "Now it is the Spring Festival. In our hometown, parents and relatives are all celebrating the New Year. They are happily sitting together, making dumplings in the north, making glutinous rice cakes in the south, watching TV lively, and the children are happily counting the red envelopes after receiving lucky money. There are dragon and lion dances, fireworks, and celebrating the New Year happily..."

It turned out that the half of the officers and soldiers who did not close their eyes also closed their eyes.

What comes to everyone’s mind are the smiling faces of their parents and the New Year celebrations at home.

Lin Qingping's voice continued to ring out, "I also came from such a lively place. When I came here, I didn't know if it was lonely or not. I only knew that the reason why our elders and fellow countrymen can celebrate the New Year happily is because there are thousands and thousands of lovely you who are guarding their safety. Because of you, we ordinary people can sing and dance with peace of mind, celebrate the New Year with peace of mind, and live happily with peace of mind! If possible, please allow me, on behalf of the elders and fellow countrymen, to say thank you to each of you. Thank you, as long as you are here, we are not afraid!"

After a brief silence in the audience, thunderous applause broke out again. Some of the little soldiers had red eyes and turned around quietly to blink.

While Gu Juncheng was staring blankly at her on the stage, he was pushed up by Xiaotian at some point, with a bunch of flowers in his hand, and walked towards the stage step by step.

Lin Qingping looked at the man below the stage and continued, "The common people know that as long as you are here, we are safe, just like, I know..."

After saying the word "Tao", Gu Juncheng walked to the front of the stage.

Lin Qingping recalled that in his previous life, some singers would jump from the stage into the audience when they were singing excitedly.

She watched Gu Juncheng walk towards him step by step. When he walked to the stage, she suddenly jumped down with an impulse from nowhere - to where he was standing.

She knew she wouldn't fall to the ground.

She knew that this man would not let her fall to the ground.

Just as she expected, after she jumped down, she was held tightly by a pair of arms, as tight as iron...

“Lin Qingping!” Gu Juncheng hugged her, his dark face turned pale, and he gnashed his teeth, “Are you going to die?!”
