Chapter 479: Chapter 480: Playing Dead
Back then, the soldiers under his command included poor children that came from the mountains. They couldn’t afford food and thus enlisted in the army.
Some achieved success, but what about those who had to leave because of injuries?
Such thoughts stirred a swell of determination in his heart.
He used to have the capability but not the time.
Now he has the time, he should do something for them.
In an often-used phrase, he couldn’t allow the soldiers who fought to protect their country, to shed both blood and tears.
He believed that with his capability, he could definitely establish a remarkable company, provide decent jobs for many people like him, so at the very least, they could live without worrying about their basic necessities and live happily.
It took Qiao Zui some time to understand what he said. He squinted one eye, kicked him, and said, “Why are you telling me this? You’re insane!”
This was his first genuine smile after arriving here.
He and Qiao Zui could fight back-to-back and could entrust their lives to each other. They were comrades-in-arms.
They didn’t need to discuss this.
In the future, they would continue to fight together.
Compared to many who had to struggle alone after leaving, they were fortunate.
There were still many lone wolves out there, waiting for them to discover and recruit.
People need a sense of belonging.
He believed that one day, he would build an organization belonging to him, turning solitary wolves into pack members.
Thinking this, his eyes became brighter and brighter, as if they were burning with fiery passion; his whole demeanor was different from before.
Qiao Zui looked at him, smiled faintly, and closed his eyes in relief.
As long as one lives, the future will always be full of hope.
Their dreams may have come to an abrupt halt, but their life journey had only just begun.
He would continue to strive hard alongside his captain!
Qiao Zui closed his eyes, his heart filled with joy. Just as he was nodding off, Fang Yao woke him up, “Ah Zui, wake up.”
He squinted his eyes open, “What?”
Fang Yao hoisted him up from the ground, “Quick, come with me for a survey.”
Qiao Zui shook his head, “Do we really have to do it now? Can’t it wait until tomorrow?”
Fang Yao slapped him on the back and pushed him out of the rehabilitation room, “Procrastination will only lead to more delays!”
Qiao Zui almost fell but didn’t make a fuss.
Seeing Fang Yao so eager made him realize that Fang Yao was truly committed.
Isn’t this what he wanted?
Only that he was just about to fall asleep, and got abruptly woken up. He felt that his former captain truly didn’t understand the concept of humanity.
He staggered and didn’t feel like walking, so he simply wrapped his arms around Fang Yao’s neck, leaning his entire body weight on him, and let Fang Yao carry him along.
Fang Yao helplessly commented, “I feel like I’m dragging a dead dog.”
Qiao Zui took the joke in stride, not caring at all, “Have you ever seen a dead dog as handsome as I am?”
Fang Yao replied, “Yes, isn’t that you?”
Qiao Zui pretended to be dead.
The car drove out of the Gu Group’s villa, speeding on the road.
As they passed the central hospital, a familiar figure flashed in front of Qiao Zui’s eyes.
Qiao Zui suddenly shouted, “Stop the car!”
The driver was startled and immediately halted the car.
Qiao Zui rushed out of the car and sprinted into the hospital.
Half an hour later, a sweating Fang Yao found an equally sweaty and panting Qiao Zui. He put his hand on his shoulder and asked, “What happened?”
Qiao Zui closed his eyes, his heaving chest gradually calming down, “It’s nothing, let’s go.”
