Deep down, she blad herself for how she could forget her second brother like that.
"You were so scared of back then. If I told you, wouldn’t you think I’d poison the brown sugar water?" Gu Sheng joked.
"It’s not that extre. Who told you to sulk with ?"
"Alright, let’s not talk about the past. Drink this brown sugar water in a bit, and if you still feel this awful every day, take a day off from classes." Gu Sheng gently stroked Gu Yao’s head.
"Mm."
"Rest early, call if anything cos up."
"Okay."
After a few reminders, Gu Sheng got up and left.
Gu Yao leaned back against the bed, holding the warm water, glancing at the brown sugar water on the nightstand, she couldn’t help but smile.
Picking up the phone beside the pillow, she intended to check the ti, but the screen showed several military news updates. Gu Yao glanced quickly, realizing that another mishap had occurred with so soldiers.
However, when she saw the keyword "Capital City" in the news headline, her heart skipped a beat.
She read these news daily, both fearing and anticipating updates related to Capital City.
Either sothing happens or a comndation is given, but most of the ti, it’s bad news.
Gu Yao placed the mug aside, hurriedly entered her password to unlock her phone, her emotions in turmoil as she clicked into one of the reports, praying silently for no incidents.
As the report opened, the words "Ninth Military Region" appeared unexpectedly on the screen, making Gu Yao’s eyes widen slightly.
A heart full of unease instantly panicked.
The Ninth Military Region, precisely where Shangguan Yu was stationed.
She held her breath, trembling fingertips sliding down the screen, eyes squeezed shut and gradually furrowed brows all confirming that her worst fears had co true.
"At one o’clock in the afternoon on the 21st, during a military drill in the Capital City’s defensive Ninth Military Region, an explosion occurred due to a soldier’s error, injuring three soldiers. The military district chief was severely wounded while rescuing and is currently being treated at the City Center First People’s Hospital, situation unclear."
The chief, the Ninth Military Region chief is none other than Shangguan Yu.
Gu Yao’s mind exploded with a "boom," her frightened eyes frozen on those few lines of text, rereading them over and over, continuously verifying.
The hand holding the phone shook increasingly, even her breathing paused for ten seconds at a ti.
Through this period of healing and self-redemption, she thought she might remain calm upon hearing news about him, sowhat indifferent compared to before, yet the truth proved she absolutely couldn’t.
All her efforts during this ti clearly showed her at this mont that they were futile.
She still loved him, this love hadn’t diminished one bit, not by ti, nor by her own forgetfulness.
No matter how hard she tried to forget him, no matter how strong she pretended to be, hearing his na left her only with utter disarray.
Gu Yao frantically clicked the accompanying image below, carefully confirming, but saw only shaded figures in military uniforms, standing straight and anxiously waiting outside the surgical room.
Among them, one silhouette was familiar to her. Even with a mosaic over the face, she still recognized Shangguan Yu’s father, Shangguan Qingmu.
Gu Yao held the phone, trying her best to stay calm, scrolling to the very bottom, hoping to glean more information from the comnts, but found netizens mostly posting words like "salute".
