This was the obsession in Gu Changsheng’s heart!
Perhaps, it was to lessen the guilt in her own heart, or perhaps it was to keep herself constantly busy to forget those scenes echoing in her mind!
Only in this way, would she feel that her existence still had some value, still had some use!
Giving them a new lease on life, also gave herself the courage to keep living!
"No use trying to persuade her, it won’t work!" Dong Lei shook his head with a pained expression on the side.
He would always remember how his wife had exerted her last ounce of strength to push him out!
His wife was that resolute; she had left the way of life to them and hadn’t left any room for herself!
Thinking of this, Dong Lei’s eyes couldn’t help but warm up, and he signaled to Si Xi before turning to run to one side.
"It’s all my fault, all my fault!" Dong Lei ran to a corner of the courtyard, pounding the wall in anguish, "It’s all because of me, otherwise my wife could have escaped! Because of me, I held my wife back! Wuu wuu..."
"Stop crying!" A cold voice sounded above Dong Lei’s head, and, hearing it, Dong Lei hurriedly looked up, "Mind your own business! If my wife doesn’t cry, then I’ll cry for her, what of it?"
"Lady Changsheng is a person to be revered!" Jiang One said, looking at the red figure in the courtyard tirelessly treating the wounded soldiers and spoke in a serious tone.
He was a general, but he knew nothing about medicine; he couldn’t help here!
"What do you know? Who asked for your reverence! Do you understand the suffering in my wife’s heart?" Dong Lei immediately retorted upon hearing this, watching the incessant hustle of his wife and crying once more, "My wife, content with the status quo, in harmony with the world, she simply wanted to lead a peaceful and happy life with our family! And then what?"
"Then they insisted that my wife was the Female Star of the Occupation Room! Watching her seeming arrogance and unrivaled dominance, in reality, she was the kindest! She spared no effort to save us, yet she herself fell into death’s grip! Wuu wuu..."
"Ning Er is dead... Master Lou’s subordinates also died... Some of the soldiers you led died in Southern Fujian... Do you know how much my wife blames herself? She’s such a cheerful person, if not for being in extreme pain, forced to a dead end, how could she think of self-detonation as a way to thank the world? Wuu wuu..."
Looking at the petite woman incessantly sobbing in front of him, Jiang One’s eyes flickered with a sense of helplessness, "Stop crying now!"
"I want to cry!" Dong Lei replied upon hearing this, "My wife is too busy to cry, so I want to cry for her! Four days and nights! My wife hasn’t slept for four days and nights, all to save them! Wuu wuu..."
"Heavenly Dao is unjust, so unjust! Why does my wife have to suffer these ordeals? She has saved countless people, practicing medicine, aiding the world, why does she have to endure this suffering? Wuu wuu..."
"Heaven imposes great responsibilities on those who can bear them, the tribulations she suffers, are her fate!" Jiang One said in a deep voice.
He wasn’t good at comforting others; he could only speak so frankly.
"What great responsibilities? My wife doesn’t care for such things! My wife said that she would be completely satisfied with a corner to live in peace, a big bowl to eat from, and a whole day to sleep! Wuu wuu..." Dong Lei sobbed and argued, quickly wiping the tears from her face, "I’m going to make a lot of delicious food for my wife! Once she’s done and has a good meal, she’ll forget all the unhappiness!"
"You!" Jiang One looked at the little woman who ran off in a trail of smoke and shook his head helplessly, "What kind of people are actually around Lady Changsheng? A little girl, after enduring four days and nights with her, still thinks of making her delicious food!"
"That’s not even the most ridiculous part! You haven’t seen the women from Baili Mountain! They were each capable of taking on a hundred, akin to divine weapons descending!" Jiang San’s voice sounded behind Jiang One, full of boundless admiration.
"Has the great fire at Baili Mountain been extinguished?" Jiang One immediately turned and asked.
"Extinguished! With those eight hundred helping, it was truly like divine assistance!" Jiang San nodded vigorously, marvelling, "Big brother, you don’t know, but I was scared stiff when I arrived at Baili Mountain!"
"He, along with the Young Master, led the Mansion Soldiers back to the city, they, with a mere eight hundred, fought against over ten thousand remaining soldiers, it was so intense!"
"It was no different from slaughtering people and mowing grass!"
Hearing this, Jiang One glanced at Jiang San and, looking at the still busy red shadow in the courtyard, muttered, "Strong generals have no weak soldiers, you’re so surprised because you haven’t seen Lady Changsheng kill!"
