How Much Pain Must He Be In?
He Xun pondered for a moment. Other than the company’s reports or the recent financial situation, he really didn’t know what else he could talk about. Chen Wei’er definitely wouldn’t want to hear a story about those. Otherwise, he could just give her a few lectures about economics. It would probably put her to sleep, right?
Just as He Xun was carefully choosing, Chen Wei’er said, “Tell me about your past training.”
After being together with He Xun for so long, Chen Wei’er only found out that he had actually trained in the army. Therefore, there was a good reason for his incredible figure.
Other wealthy people’s children were sent abroad for gold, but He Zui, He Song, and He Zun were sent to the army for training.
For He Xun, that period of time had passed so long ago that he almost couldn’t remember it. After all, he was a teenager, but his body had formed muscle memory, allowing him to accurately solve problems in life so that he could survive no matter where he was.
“I’ve never experienced it before, and I’ve never heard of it either, so I’m very curious. Do you have girls there? I don’t think only boys can train, right?” Chen Wei’er’s eyes were bright.
In fact, if Chen Wei’er thought about it carefully, He Xun was still extremely young. Besides working hard at the company, he didn’t have much time for himself. So, where did the girl he met in his diary come from?
More importantly, they were romantically involved for a period of time. Did they know each other in the army?
When He Xun heard this, he laughed and said with a teasing tone, “There are no girls, but there are a lot of female mosquitoes.”
Chen Wei’er was speechless.
He Xun stopped teasing his wife and recalled their time in the army. “My eldest brother sent me to the army on my 18th birthday.”
He Xun closed his eyes as if he could still see He Zui standing in front of him.
Back then, He Zui spoke with a stern expression. “Our uncles are all brave and fearless soldiers. They are the heroes of this world! Half of our mother’s blood flows in our bodies. As our mother’s son, we should also enter the army for training! Brother He Song and I have already gone for training. Now, it’s your turn. This is the pride left behind by our mother’s family. We can’t raise a group of popinjays in our generation.”
He Xun, He Zui, and He Song had been in the army for more than two years. From the icy and cold polar regions to the hot and humid deep mountains and crumbling forests, He Xun’s footsteps graced almost all the most difficult places in the world. Wherever there was peril, they would go to train. It was filled with bittersweet experiences that tempered one’s heart!
Eighteen years old…
Chen Wei’er closed her eyes and reminisced. She had just finished her art exam at that age. She also went straight into the dance academy as she danced with her graceful figure.
At that time, He Xun had been constantly challenging the bottom line of humanity.
He Xun hummed softly, “I have broken a lot, my ribs and my ankle. I have dislocated my arm, and I have been bitten by a venomous snake… It’s a good thing I could persevere.”
“Broken ribs?” Chen Wei’er suddenly lifted her husband’s shirt to look at his abdomen. On the right side of his lower abdomen, there was indeed a very faint scar. If one didn’t look carefully, it was almost impossible to tell.
Chen Wei’er had never noticed it before. She touched his scar with her finger and her voice began to tremble. “Does it hurt?”
“It’s been so many years. I’ve long forgotten about it.” He Xun pulled her hand out and covered the scar.
Chen Wei’er had a tear from the corner of her eye.
“Why are you crying?” He Xun was surprised.
“My heart aches! How could you… To be able to endure such… What about any other injuries?”
Chen Wei’er remembered that she had accidentally twisted her ankle when she was practicing dance, and it had been swollen for three or four days. At that time, she was in so much pain that she kept trembling. And He Xun? How painful would it be!
“Don’t cry. I’m the one who’s injured, but you’re crying even more than I am. Don’t think about it in the future. You can’t just ignore yourself. You have to be healthy and live happily!” He Xun didn’t expect Chen Wei’er to be affected so much. If he had known this would happen, he definitely wouldn’t have told her.
Chen Wei’er’s hand was soft, and she kept hitting him with heartache. Of course, she didn’t bear to use any strength. She seemed to be acting coquettishly because her heart ached for this man.
At that time, he was still a child. He had never seen his mother, and it was as if he had never seen his father. His two brothers were busy working hard, and he lacked the love of his parents.
He Xun had also experienced so much. Chen Wei’er felt quite emotional when she heard her husband nonchalantly talk about his two broken ribs, broken ankle, dislocated arm, and bite from a venomous snake…
Chen Wei’er felt like she was being pricked by needles. How painful was that…
