Secret Marriage: Reborn as A Beautiful Model Student

Chapter 237: Elder Brother Li Is Here! (2)

Ying Tao had been sewing when she suddenly pricked her finger lightly. Blood flowed from the eye of the needle.

Ying Tao put her finger into her mouth to stop the bleeding and said, “Please hold on a second.”

She walked to the door and slowly opened it.

Men in military uniform were standing outside the door.

The one standing at the very front held a wooden tray in his hands.

A letter and a box containing a military merit medal were on the wooden tray.

“Sister-in-law, how are you?” the soldier greeted her. “I am Comrade Zhou Hong’s comrade in arms. Comrade Zhou Hong was killed in action. This is Comrade Zhou Hong’s will and military merit medal.”

Ying Tao took the wooden tray, confused. The spark in her eyes slowly faded. She suddenly felt a pinch in her heart.

At that moment, grief enveloped Ying Tao.

It was a bright, sunny day, but she felt cold.

“Thank you for making the trip. It has been hard on all of you. Why don’t you all come in and have some tea,” she offered.

The soldier standing at the very front said, “Sister-in-law, our condolences.”

Ying Tao nodded and replied, “Yes.”

When she married a soldier, she knew that a day like this might possibly come.

It was just that Ying Tao had not expected the day to come so quickly.

It had come so fast that she was not prepared for it.

It had come so fast that she did not dare to believe that this was real.

Ying Tao returned to the little courtyard and closed the doors.

The moment she closed the doors, she seemed to remember that there was something that she had forgotten to ask.

She hurriedly threw the doors open and ran after the men.

She ran after the black sedan.

It took a while before the driver noticed that someone was running after them. Then one of them alighted to talk to Ying Tao.

“Sister-in-law.”

Ying Tao clutched her chest with her hand and looked at the man. She took a deep breath and said, “Can I see him? Was he injured badly? Did...”

Ying Tao’s tears flowed down her cheeks.

“Comrade Zhou Hong was a hero. Sister-in-law, don’t worry. Comrade Zhou Hong was not injured badly.”

“Then can I see him?”

The soldier said apologetically, “No.”

“Alright. Thank you.”

Ying Tao turned around. Compared to how she had run after the car agitatedly earlier, she felt extremely weak right now. Her legs felt like jelly. She felt like crying.

Ying Tao stumbled all the way back to the house. When she arrived home, she closed the door and leaned against it. She slid downwards and sat on the ground.

She opened the letter and read every single word.

She was sobbing.

Everyone on the set could not help but cry when they saw her.

Jin Xin did not call for the cameras to stop rolling, so Ye Tianxin continued performing according to what was written on the script.

At that moment, Ye Tianxin had already dove entirely into the sadness that Ying Tao felt when she had lost her lover. She did not notice that Li Qingcang had already arrived at the set.

He was wearing casual clothes and a pair of sunglasses.

His eyes were red as he clenched his fists tightly.

He thought that Tianxin must not find a military man as her boyfriend in the future.

Soldiers would protect their country. When danger comes, they would use their body to do their best to protect the country. If that man were to perish in war, Tianxin would be left alone. What would she do then?

Yan Jun had been focused entirely on Ye Tianxin’s performance. He saw Li Qingcang when he looked up.

At that moment, Yan Jun felt as if his heart had stopped beating.

What was Boss Li doing here?

Was he here to capture Yan Jun and drag him off to get enlisted?

Oh, Lord! He did not want to join the army.
