Chapter 1257: Chapter 62: We and You (Ten-Thousand-Word Chapter, Two-in-One)_5
“Yu Xi.”
Lin Xian softly called her na again.
It felt like…
As if sothing warm and tenacious was flowing into Lin Xian’s body through the gaze they shared.
Making him resolute, making him determined.
At this mont.
Angelica entered the ward, bypassed Lin Xian, who was fully engrossed, and ca to Zhao Yingjun’s side, and asked with concern:
“How is it? Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere?”
After speaking, she looked at Lin Xian and smiled:
“This is what new fathers are like, only looking at their daughters and neglecting the greatest contributor.”
However…
Zhao Yingjun shook her head:
“It’s okay.”
She looked gratefully at the father and daughter eting for the first ti in front of her and smiled slightly:
“Yu Xi, coming out early just to see her dad.”
It seed to have heard its mother’s voice.
Little Yu Xi in the swaddling clothes reacted a bit.
Blinked her eyes.
Turned her head to the side.
Lin Xian held her, sat next to Zhao Yingjun, and let Zhao Yingjun also observe the miracle of life.
Zhao Yingjun glanced at little Yu Xi.
Then looked at Lin Xian again and found that his eyes had changed:
“I thought that after seeing Yu Xi today, your eyes would show hesitation, but instead… they’ve beco more determined.”
Lin Xian nodded:
“I am truly grateful now.”
“Grateful for what?” asked Zhao Yingjun.
Lin Xian looked at Yu Xi closing her eyes as if she was going to sleep and smiled involuntarily:
“[I am grateful that if a battle has to be fought, it’s going to the battlefield, and not Yu Xi.]”
He turned his head and looked at Zhao Yingjun:
“A few days ago, before coming to the Imperial Capital, I talked with Nangong ngjie, she told about her husband, her father, her grandparents… ”
“Now when I think about it, I realize I am not special actually. Decades ago, on this land of China, there were millions of predecessors setting examples, pushing forward, defending this beautiful country for us.”
“So many people left their hos, left their hotowns, left their parents, left their wives and children, fighting for our lives today and for a better future, and I am just one of the many following in their luminous path.”
“Yingjun, just like what our great leader said, this is a battle humanity has to fight sooner or later, if I don’t fight it, then Yu Xi will have to, if Yu Xi doesn’t, then her children will have to, until our great-grandchildren, until 600 years later when those children have to face it.”
“Yu Xi will have children, her children will have children, and their children will have children… so, the fate of human extinction and world destruction 600 years later will still rest on our children’s shoulders.”
“I am imnsely grateful now, that I have this capability, to change all this, to have the hope to save everything. I can’t imagine, nor can I bear… you see, Yu Xi is so small, so delicate, how can I as her father bear to let her endure all this?”
Zhao Yingjun raised her hand.
And rubbed the back of Lin Xian’s head:
“This is a kind of spirit inherited in China, during the revolution, countless fathers and children pushed forward… just like you said, the great leader’s son died on the battlefield.”
“If it were soone else, maybe they wouldn’t act this way, nor would they understand, that’s because—”
“[They are not great leaders, naturally they wouldn’t understand.]”
She blinked and smiled:
“Do you rember the words Huang Que once said to you? She said she would accompany you in ordinariness, teach you to excel, wait for you to mature, and then… watch you slowly beco great.”
“Perhaps she didn’t get to see this mont, but now, I see it for her… Lin Xian, there will definitely be many people who don’t understand your choice, but this misunderstanding, is sothing a leader should bear.”
At this mont, Gao Yang pursed his lips and walked over from behind:
“Lin Xian, it’s ti. We… need to go, to be safe, we must get to the Dragon Science Academy Hibernation Base in advance.”
…
…
Lin Xian and Zhao Yingjun didn’t move, nor did they budge.
Finally.
Zhao Yingjun forced herself to rise, gently embracing Lin Xian and Yu Xi together:
“Look ahead.”
She closed her eyes and softly said:
“Always look ahead.”
“Trust , and trust yourself, Lin Xian. Always rember what Huang Que told you—”
“[Do what’s right, and if it’s wrong, then be wrong thoroughly.]”
“Before anything is finally concluded, none of us really knows what’s right and what’s wrong, since that’s the case… then stick with it! Carry everyone’s expectations and trust, persist, and move forward!”
Lin Xian nodded.
Looked one last ti at Yu Xi in his arms, and softly said:
“Yu Xi… Daddy takes back what he said before, you don’t have to learn an instrunt, beco elegant, beco obedient.”
“If you want to learn Taekwondo, go ahead, learn whatever you want… you can beco a bit stronger, to protect mom… for dad.”
Underfoot.
The floor-cleaning robot VV ca closer, sticking to Lin Xian’s ankle.
And said in an unprecedentedly tiny voice:
“Garbage… garbage… detected garbage…”
Lin Xian noticed it.
And smiled slightly:
“You too, VV, we are all VVs, rember your identity, rember your duty… protect Zhao Yingjun and Yu Xi, I entrust you, during the ti I’m away.”
Gao Yang tugged at Lin Xian’s arm:
“Lin Xian, we really should go.”
Lin Xian nodded.
Placed little Yu Xi back in her crib.
Then walked with Gao Yang to the door of the ward.
Yet felt like…
