2658 Wife’s Woe
Holding the cold tombstone, Fu Yusheng pressed his wrinkled face against it. It seemed that this was the only way he could hug his wife.
A low and light voice came slowly. It was filled with sorrow and longing. It blew into the distance with the wind.
“I missed you so much. Every day, I would think about the day when I would finally find you. I kept thinking about what to say to you when we met. Would I have the courage to say anything?
“I wondered if you had already forgotten about the man called Fu Yusheng. Did you hate him so much that you wanted to cut him into pieces to vent your anger?
!!
“I was waiting. I’ve always been waiting. If you wanted to beat me up, I wouldn’t even retaliate. I’d gladly take it. Red Plum… Xueqing, my wife… Come and hit me and scold me…”
The soldier knelt in front of his late wife’s grave and hugged the cold tombstone. That year, for the country, for the responsibility on his shoulders, and to prove his innocence, he remained calm and faced the military’s investigation of him. However, he let down his lover because of this.
At this moment, the major general, who had made a huge contribution to the military power of the country, hugged his dead wife’s tombstone. All his sorrow, grievances, and his longing for her for more than 20 years were released at this moment.
The sorrow was so strong that even the sun couldn’t dispel it. It was so strong that even the morning breeze let out a resonant cry.
He was a tall and big soldier who was always calm when other countries made things difficult for him during his overseas inspection. He could pat his chest and say that he had lived up to the heavens and the country for the past 20 years.
However, when he saw his deceased wife’s photo and hugged the cold tombstone, he knew that the only person he felt guilty toward was his wife.
He was worthy of the world and the country… but he was unworthy of his wife.
Ye Jian, who was kneeling in front of the tomb, saw her father kneeling and hugging her mother’s tombstone. His voice was hoa.r.s.e as he spoke. Every word was filled with sorrow. It couldn’t end the sorrow in her father’s heart or his longing for her mother.
Although her mother had pa.s.sed away, her father still found her mother… She had finally fulfilled his wish.
She didn’t disturb him. She mustn’t disturb him at this time. She mustn’t persuade him either.
He had persisted for 20 years only to see a cold tombstone in the end. The hope in her heart collapsed. Every second of his longing shattered at this moment. Her father needed to clean up these shattered sorrows, even if it was through talking to her mother. Even hugging the cold tombstone was better than waiting hopelessly.
“Mom, did you hear that? You must have heard it. I brought Dad to see you. I finally know that Dad didn’t abandon you. It was fate that made a fool of you in the past and separated you from Dad.
“Mom, don’t worry. I’ll definitely find the mastermind who caused your death. One day, I’ll tell you who caused you to be separated from Dad and me. Our family will only be able to reunite after more than 20 years.
“Listen to me. You must listen to me carefully. He really loves you, and he didn’t forget you, nor did he abandon you. He has loved you deeply for the past 20 years.”
Since Mr. Fu couldn’t get up, Ye Jian didn’t get up either.
