C52 (1/2)
Perhaps this was the conviction of a soldier. They would rather have their bones destroyed than to just leave nothing behind to ensure the safety of the masses.
But what about Fang Zhijun? Why did he choose to flee the moment he was in danger?
Qi Qi Qi sat powerlessly in her chair and looked coldly at the development of that world after Zheng Qiqi's death.
Zheng Qiqi died valiantly from his duty. Although there were still some casualties among the residents who did not evacuate upstairs, the number of casualties was much smaller than originally estimated.
Zheng Qi was still young, only in her early thirties. She had good military training and many years of experience in the army. If nothing happened to her, with her own ability and the Zheng Family's connections, her future would be bright. But she had lost her life in this mission.
In order to give an explanation to the public and to give an explanation to the Zheng Family, the military decided that this mission should still be decorated with peace, with emphasis on Zheng Qi's dedication and the medal of martyrdom given to him.
Since this was an action worthy of praise, naturally, no one could be punished. Denying it, wasn't that slapping his own face?
On the surface, it was supposed to be peaceful, but everyone knew it.
The Zheng Family learned the truth from the soldiers led by Zheng Qiqi. They knew that Fang Zhijun was responsible for a large part of his death.
As a result, Fang Zhijun was transferred to a more remote area, and Mei Hong naturally went with him.
Moreover, during that mission, she did not forget him at the most critical moment, and it was she who had pulled him away from danger. Although Fang Zhijun did not say anything, from his recent performance, Mei Hong knew that Fang Zhijun was already in her pocket, and the rest of her life depended on time to hone her skills.
Seeing this, Qi Qi Qi knew that the end of the story was already very clear. Mei Hong, as a reincarnated woman, had relied on her own hard work and persistence to reap the rewards of love and career. It was just that he pitied Zheng Qi. He should have gotten along well with Fang Zhijun, but because of the appearance of the reborn girl, he had been completely reduced to cannon fodder.
The target of this quest had moved her, made her feel heartache. Even after she had died, she had never once blamed fate for being unfair to her, rather she had given up her own soul, only because she wanted to save those innocent and implicated people, and also because she wanted to drive out Fang Zhijun, who was not very ambitious, from the army. She had never truly sought anything for herself.
When Qi Qi opened her eyes again, she saw a festive scene, as well as a red tablecloth. Qi Qi quickly realized that she had entered the mission, and the scene now should be her and Fang Zhijun's engagement banquet. She remembered that the only time Zheng Qiqi had been in such an environment was when she was engaged, but unfortunately, her engagement party had become a joke in the eyes of others because of Mei Hong's rebirth.
”Qi Qi, what do you think we should do?” The old man was sitting in the banquet hall with the Zheng Family, Fang Zhi Jun, and Mei Hong left. His aged hands were tightly holding the crutches in his hands, his brows were tightly knitted, and his sharp eyes were sweeping over the three young men in front of him.
Qi Qi Qi was stunned for a moment, she remembered that Zheng Qi was just silent and did not say anything. It was because of her attitude that the Zheng Family did not have Fang Zhijun to act, because all the Zheng Family elders present knew that Zheng Qi still had feelings for Fang Zhijun.
But right now, even the original Zheng Qiqi had been utterly disappointed by Fang Zhijun. How could she leave Fang Zhijun with the chance to start all over again?
”Grandfather, although Fang Zhijun has his difficulties, he still has a marriage contract with Ms. Mei. I know that in most of the villages in the country, such a marriage is still recognized as valid, and since Fang Zhijun is already married, he has concealed the truth and is betrothed to me again. I cannot accept this kind of marriage no matter what, so naturally, this marriage has to end.”
Hearing this, Fang Zhijun suddenly raised his head and looked at her in surprise. How could this woman, who had once chased after him, suddenly turn hostile in an instant? He was at fault for this matter, but he shouldn't have endured such a severe punishment.
