The heavens want me to perish!!

Before she cut off the phone, Huo Yingchengs bitter cry was all she heard.

The tremble at the end of his statement seemed to signify the start of Huo Yingchengs sorrowful end.

Gu Qingjiu chuckled at his misfortune.

The Dayi City after New Year was still pretty bustling.

In the following few days, Gu Qingmo brought Gu Qingjiu around as they played around the city.

Because it was possible that she wouldnt be able to leave camp for the next two years, Gu Qingjiu cherished this time which they had dearly.

Without her realizing, Gu Qingjiu almost forgot about the shadows that the Yu Family cast.

A week later, Gu Qingjiu was to return to the camp.

It was already dawn. With her luggage, she left the house with Gu Qingmo.

You have to take good care of yourself there. If theres anything troublesome, call Mom and she will visit you at the camp.

Qi Yuefeng looked at Gu Qingjiu with watery eyes.

Her reluctance to let her go was evident in her eyes.

After all, their farewell could mean that Gu Qingjiu wouldnt be back for two years.

Other than the three months she spent in the new recruits camp, Gu Qingjiu had never been away from home for such a long time.

Qi Yuefengs state made Gu Qingjiu sad as well. She held back the longing she felt in her heart as her eyes wavered slightly. Mom, its okay. Its just for two years. I will call you every week. If anything happens at home, you have to let me know as well.

I know, I know.

Qi Yuefeng held back her tears as she nodded with difficulty.

I think you should let Qingjiu go to the bus terminal as early as possible. If you really miss her, you can just visit her there every month.

Gu Hong walked out with his hands behind him. Although his words were straightforward, Gu Qingjiu could tell from his eyes that he couldnt bear for her to leave as well.

But as a father, he wouldnt show his emotions as openly as Qi Yuefeng.

I understand.

Qi Yuefeng wiped her tears. Afraid that she would delay Gu Qingjiu further, she looked at Gu Qingmo and instructed, Send your younger sister to the bus terminal. When shes there, give us a call.

Gu Qingmo nodded. Mom, I know. Rest assured. Okay, Ill bring her there then.

In order to not make it harder for her to leave, Gu Qingjiu turned away resolutely.

Two years might not seem too long, but it seemed extremely distant.

Gu Qingmo drove Father Gus car to send Gu Qingjiu to the bus terminal.

It wasnt convenient for him to talk when Qi Yuefeng was present, but now that there were only the two of them, Gu Qingmo spoke up.

I really have no idea what youre being so stubborn about that you have to enter the army. In those two years, who knows how many things can happen.

Gu Qingjiu pursed her lips and then bit on her lower lip. She said no words of response.

It was a relief when Gu Qingmo did not continue. He probably said his piece in the past already.

They soon arrived at the bus terminal and Gu Qingmo helped Gu Qingjiu with the luggage.

People were coming and going, and the bus terminal was bustling with activity and farewells.

Perhaps realizing that he wouldnt be able to see Qingjiu for two years, Gu Qingmo finally softened. He couldnt bear it as well. Since youve made up your mind, you should train hard inside the camp. Its just two years. During summer break, if my girlfriend comes back with me, I will bring her to see you.

Gu Qingjiu nodded.

Under this situation, it seemed as if a million words wouldnt suffice what she wanted to express and it simply became a single sentence of

Goodbye, brother. Ill have to trouble you to take care of our parents for these two years.
