Chapter 1481: Don’t Forget the Past
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Jiang Yue and Xue Yan went to the supreme commander’s lounge to take a nap.
Winter was here, so the sun did not stay for long. It was only half past six when the sky started to brighten.
She washed up briefly before leaving the room.
As soon as she left the room, she saw Shao Shuting and Huo Wenqing standing at the door.
Unlike them, Shao Shuting and Huo Wenqing were dressed in suits.
“Jiang Yue, why didn’t you just ask someone to wake us up last night?” Shao Shuting immediately smiled and said, “I was just about to go to the canteen to eat when the person who changed shifts at the base told me that you were here, so I asked Wenqing to come along. It’s already time for dinner. Let’s talk while eating.”
In the base, under normal circ.u.mstances, food wouldn’t be sent to your room. The previous time was special. Usually, everyone ate at a commonplace. No matter if it were the commander or anyone else, they would have to go to the canteen to eat.
It was time for breakfast. Jiang Yue had no objections. She nodded. “Okay.”
Then, the four of them walked towards the cafeteria on their floor.
There was a canteen on every floor.
As Shao Shuting walked to the cafeteria he spoke to them.
“The people outside the door should have told you, right? Wenqing and I have been waiting for you to arrive. It’s not that Wenqing and I are looking for you for fun.
“Doctor Cao and the others suggested something during the meeting. The zombies are gone and finally have the chance to rebuild their homes. Previously, we had no choice, but now, not only do we have a way, but we also have the time and ability to do it. We want to carve some statues for those who have contributed greatly.
“If it weren’t for them, we wouldn’t have been able to live until now and have such a good life today. Of course, you contributed the most. You’ll be the first to have a statue. The second one is Doctor Bai. Doctor Bai saved many people in our base. Doctor Bai saved all the commanders in our base. If it weren’t for the fact that Doctor Bai saved us, we wouldn’t have been willing to be tied together to fight against the zombies.
“We were still young at that time. Doctor Bai saved us. When we were with him… He was as gentle to us as a father to his children. It was as if he was our real father. It was just that he had died a long time ago. It was only later that we found out that he saved all of us, so we treated each other like brothers and sisters.
“Without him, we would not be where we are today… Of course, there are others. We all knew that we couldn’t have made it this far by ourselves. It was the result of everyone’s hard work. Everyone in our base was so united. They had contributed to our base more or less. They are the ones that insisted on building a statue of us. Of course, it’s impossible to build a statue for everyone. That would be too much. We wouldn’t even know how to build one. We can only choose those who have made great contributions to earn a statue so that we won’t forget the past and cherish the present more…
“So, Wenqing and I had no objections to having you as the first, even the people in the base agreed to it without a second thought. We’ve just been waiting to ask for your opinion.”
Jiang Yue said, “I have no objections either. However, there’s no need to erect my statue. My contribution is greater not because I have contributed more, but because my s.p.a.ce has contributed more. It will be the same if you have a s.p.a.ce like this.”
Shao Shuting and Huo Wenqing quickly disagreed.
However, Jiang Yue insisted, so Shao Shuting and Huo Wenqing had no choice.
Shao Shuting could only say something else. “By the way, Jiang Yue, doesn’t Doctor Bai have some belongings? He’s not married, has no children, and doesn’t have parents. His parents died in a car accident when he was young. He doesn’t even have a girlfriend.”
