Chapter 680: I'm by Your Side
The disasters brought by the war to the people are simply unimaginable to ordinary people, and this is a fact that Sheng Mingzhu knows from his own experience on the battlefield.
She has been educated and indoctrinated by the prosperous empire since she was a child, and she has always taken it for granted that expanding her territory and encroaching on the resources of other planets is an inevitable step for a country to continue to develop.
But when she actually led the army to another planet, she realized that her imagination was too naΓ―ve.
Whatever continues to develop and what strengthens the country is just a whitewash for aggression.
Those innocent people are drawn into these terrible wars, and there is no guarantee of life, how can there be happiness.
They dodge artillery fire every day, desperately looking for a chance to survive in the rain of bullets, even if it is very small, they will try their best.
Sheng Mingzhu once witnessed a father who was hit by a stray bullet and fell on the battlefield in order to protect his young child, but he was still staring at his baby in blood, and refused to close his eyes.
Such a picture made Sheng Mingzhu feel sad, she even risked being shot and rushed over to protect the crying child in her arms, and took him back to the welfare home of the Shengshi Empire after the battle, asking the other party about the situation from time to time.
However, what makes her even more sad is that this kind of thing is not an isolated case, but a large number is not clear.
This is also why Sheng Mingzhu couldn't bear this torture in the end, and rushed to the hall where his father worked, and confronted him face to face, wanting to ask for an understanding.
She didn't know why she was fighting such a cruel and pointless war, or what she had been training for so long.
She is a soldier, not a tool for killing, let alone an executioner who deprives others of a happy life.
Sheng Mingzhu can't kill like his father, and can make the decision to invade other countries and other planets without emotion.
However, her father was even more cruel and ruthless than she imagined, although he treated her gently, but when it came to the country and the people, the other party had no room to speak.
This is also the main reason why Sheng Mingzhu resisted the general's accusations and ran to study other things.
She sat on the sofa in the living room and meditated on the past, gradually forgetting the time.
When Bo Sicheng returned home from the company, he watched Sheng Mingzhu sitting there with a pillow with a somewhat frozen expression, looking at the coffee table with his head slightly lowered and not knowing what he was thinking.
He also knew that the other party had been bothered about Chen Wanyan's matter recently, and he felt distressed when he looked at it, so he walked to the other party's side and sat down in two steps.
"Fat brother said that you went to Medicine Mountain today, did something happen over there?"
Sheng Mingzhu came back to his senses when he heard the other party's concerned question, and looked at Bo Sicheng who had just returned home with some hindsight, and then shook his head and replied: "No, it's good over there, I just went over to take a look at Ziqin, I'm afraid she won't be used to living there." β
This sentence was a perfunctory excuse when he heard it, but Bo Sicheng did not immediately debunk it.
There are too many things that the other party needs to consider, and he doesn't want to force Sheng Mingzhu to tell him all one by one.
"Now that you know that she is staying well there, you can rest assured," Bo Sicheng gently hugged Sheng Mingzhu in his arms, and said with a long sigh of relief in her ear, "I just don't want to see you tired, if it weren't for my mother insisting on letting that Chen Wanyan stay here, you wouldn't have to think so much about her, and go to help her find a job." β
The more Bo Sicheng thought about it, the more annoyed he felt, the so-called life-saving benefactor stayed in this house and refused to leave, and he must have no good intentions.
He saw Sheng Mingzhu being wronged because of Chen Wanyan's existence, and he felt unbearable, this family, his wife, and his children were his only bottom line.
He didn't allow anyone to come and hurt them, and he didn't allow Chen Wanyan to step into their homes without permission and make a mess of her otherwise happy life.
"Forget it, there's no need to turn your face with her for this little thing."
Sheng Mingzhu also knew that the other party really wanted to help her out of this evil breath, but she also knew that if this matter was brought to Qi Lanjun by Chen Wanyan's crying, it would definitely not be able to be solved simply.
Although Qi Lanjun is just an ordinary person to her, her son Bo Sicheng is her favorite, the man she wants to rely on for the rest of her life to the end.
She didn't want Bo Sicheng to be caught between herself and her mother because of this matter, and she didn't want to see them arguing.
Now that she has become a family, there are times when she has to avoid it, as long as she doesn't break through her bottom line, she can try to accept it, but these are all based on the premise that Chen Wanyan knows how to measure.
"Mingzhu, I know that you will agree to let Chen Wanyan live in considering that this is my mother's request, but you don't need to be wronged, if you feel that you can't talk to my mother, then I can go and tell her to let Chen Wanyan go and find a place to live after she is discharged from the hospital."
Bo Sicheng didn't want his beloved woman to bow down to someone else for him, even if that person was his mother.
"I really don't need to, I know where the scale is, and I won't let others bully me."
As long as she knows that the other party has herself in her heart and thinks about her all the time, Sheng Mingzhu feels that whether Chen Wanyan exists or not becomes unimportant to her.
She snuggled into Bo Sicheng's arms, looking at the apartment that belonged to them, and seemed to be able to imagine the bits and pieces that had happened here.
Those precious memories are what she values most, and no matter who appears here, they can't be erased.
Although Bo Sicheng still felt a little helpless when he heard her answer, he still chose to respect the other party's meaning and did not continue to insist.
"I'm on your side no matter what's going on," he said, holding his fingers and clasping them tightly with hers, "if there's anything I need to do, just say it." β
He had already made a decision, no matter what difficulties and obstacles he encountered, and what unsatisfactory things he encountered, he would face them together with Sheng Mingzhu, and it would never be impossible for her to bear it alone.
