2642 Parents’ Love

He was thinking about her mother…

Ye Jian didn’t comfort him. She lowered her eyes and tilted her head to look out of the window.

The cabin was dim. There was only a faint emergency light on. After a while, Mr. Fu’s gaze landed on Ye Jian’s side profile.

His daughter’s facial features were extremely similar to his wife’s. When he looked at his daughter, he could always see his wife’s face. He vaguely felt that his deceased wife was standing elegantly in front of him.

“Fu Yusheng, why did you come up with such a bad name? Yusheng, Yusheng, will you have to live with this name for the rest of your life? It’s so unpleasant.

“Yusheng, Yusheng, your name is actually quite nice. Yusheng, Yusheng… It’s so smooth. I remember your name immediately. Yusheng, you said that you don’t come out for training every day. Sometimes, I don’t see you in the morning or at night. Where do you go?

“Fu Yusheng, where have you been these few days? I got first place last week and wanted to tell you but you weren’t there when I ran over. I’m so angry. Hurry up and coax me. If you do that, I won’t be angry anymore and I’ll forgive you.

“Yusheng, will it be bad if we fall in love like this? Last night, during the meeting, our political officer said that male and female soldiers in the team can’t fall in love. Why do I feel like he’s talking about me? After all, we’re dating.

“You scared me. I thought you were talking about me. As it turns out, you’re not. Yusheng, let me tell you a secret. You can’t tell anyone. The officer was criticizing a female student from the company. She ran out of the male soldiers’ dorm in the middle of the night and was seen by the squad leader of the male soldiers’ cla.s.s. Oh my, it was so embarra.s.sing and awkward. Fortunately, I didn’t go to your dormitory. If I was caught, I would be so embarra.s.sed that I would retire immediately and ignore you.

“Yusheng, Yusheng, we’ll be able to get our marriage certificate in three days. Are you happy? Are you happy? Hmph, it’s useless even if you’re unhappy! Be a good groom! Don’t go back on your word, do you understand?

“Yusheng, I can’t sleep. Let’s take a walk in the forest… Have you kept your report properly? You need proof from the military unit to get married. If you don’t keep it properly and lose it, we won’t be able to get married!”

He didn’t lose the report… but he lost his wife.

He asked the woman he loved the most to wait from dawn to dusk, from the moment the sun rose to the moment it set in the west. Day after day, year after year… However, she couldn’t wait for him to bring the report and get their marriage certificate with her.

She didn’t wait for him, and he lost her…

There were tears in Mr. Fu’s eyes as he looked at Ye Jian’s side profile. He took out a piece of paper from the pocket close to his heart. The paper trembled slightly as it was opened. The words on it couldn’t be seen clearly because of the light, but Mr. Fu still looked at it carefully.

He was so familiar with the words that he could recite them with his eyes closed.

This was their marriage application report. It was also the report that his deceased wife told him to take good care of.

“Red Plum, I’ve been taking good care of it,” Mr. Fu muttered softly. It was so soft that only he could hear it. “But I lost you… I lost you…”

Tears fell from his eyes one by one. A few warm teardrops even landed on the marriage report that Mr. Fu had kept for more than 20 years.

After a while, Mr. Fu’s soft voice floated into Ye Jian’s ears. “I lost you but our daughter is back. I’ve met our daughter. She’s such a good child. She looks like you. Even her voice sounds like you.”
