Xiao Ling's seclusion in the oasis is almost unknown to everyone. Qing Ruo's explanation to the clansmen was that when the water prison exploded, Xiao Ling disappeared with the explosion and was buried in a blur of flesh and blood.

The clansmen did not have much objection to this, they had always been very convinced of Qingruo, and they just destroyed and buried the flying mecha piloted by Xiao Ling as the end of this matter. Their anger at the title of "****" is not only due to Qingruo's indoctrination, but also from the disgust in their bones, and from the inheritance of each generation. What they disliked more was General Ling, who was famous in the capital, rather than a general who was used as a target.

As for the capital, Admiral Ling almost acquiesced in Xiao Ling's death.

Xiao Ling's deeds once set off a storm in the capital, and there were many admirers of Xiao Ling among the masses, who praised her actions. Not to mention the students of the School of Gene Therapy, who have a fiery admiration for their acting principal.

Therefore, when Admiral Ling acquiesced to the news that Xiao Ling had died in a foreign land, there were many different statements among the people, but the general direction was to accuse Admiral Ling of exchanging Xiao Ling's life for extinguishing the fire with the ****, such a short period of peace, such an act is naturally very condemnable, so Admiral Ling's support fell to the bottom in an instant.

Those who took over the School of Genetic Therapy and Xiao Ling's feminist movement were Ms. Ou and Zhang Yuchen, respectively. The management of the school, as always, has completely abolished the mechanism of social dinners, has made the range of work that girls can do wider, and no longer forces girls to marry men who are in the right place, and everything seems to have become more flexible and tolerant, but no one forgets that this is still a society where men are sovereign.

Zhang Yuchen's side did not advance too smoothly. The drug developed by Xiao Ling, which has been proven to be useful for the treatment of male infertility symptoms, has been certified by the Gene Therapy Hospital to prove that it can indeed improve men's genetic defects, and has been put into mass production.

But almost no one cares about it, and no man wants to admit that he has such a problem or a need for treatment.

Zhang Yuchen felt that he could not carry forward the career left by Xiao Ling, and was very distressed, and repeatedly made many public speeches, and even told the truth that had been confirmed to various people through various channels, but still failed to make this matter better.

Ms. Ou, on the other hand, seems to be much more handy. She continued Xiao Ling's train of thought and launched many courses, focusing on improving the comprehensive ability of girls, but she received a lot of support. It's just that she has been uncertain lately, and often goes to the armed forces alone. Zhang Yuchen followed her once, and the results of the discovery made her frightened.

"How can you still be in contact with Principal Cui?"

Once Ms. Ou returned from visiting President Cui, she was blocked by Zhang Yuchen. Seeing Zhang Yuchen's angry appearance, she said helplessly: "I'm going to ask for advice on the problem of governing the school, after all, he is an expert in this area." Zhang Yuchen really hates the current awards, as if he is a husband who goes to catch rape and sees his wife cheating with others.

Ms. Ou didn't like this quietness either, she had just reconciled with Principal Cui, both between them and the school were getting better, and she didn't want any episodes to interrupt it.

"You betrayed Xiao Ling," Zhang Yuchen came to this conclusion and said with a righteous face, "Xiao Ling once put in that effort to do all this, and you ruined her efforts. ”

Ms. Ou didn't show any guilt, and said calmly: "I don't, I hope to make this school better with her efforts." ”

"You have!" Zhang Yuchen was very excited and tears rained down, she sobbed loudly, and pointed at Ms. Ou hysterically, "Don't think I don't know, you used to have a leg with this man before!" ”

Faced with Zhang Yuchen's vulgar accusations, Ms. Ou frowned: "When did you become so vulgar?" ”

Zhang Yuchen sneered: "You admit it? You don't feel sorry for Xiao Ling's death at all, she's gone, making room for you, you can live with Principal Cui in both rooms, aren't you? You traitor. ”

With that, Zhang Yuchen pulled out the weapon prepared on his waist, which was an extremely powerful laser gun. Ms. Ou didn't make any intention of taking the move, just looked at her quietly, but emitted a lilac light visible to the naked eye, Zhang Yuchen was obviously not Ms. Ou's opponent.

But neither of them has crossed that line yet.

"Xiao Ling, if anything happens, I will be very sad. Trust me, I'm going to be sadder than you. But the reason why you are behaving very abnormally now is that you know very well that Xiao Ling is not dead, she just left, and the two of you are indebted to you, leaving me, and leaving this plan that is struggling to change the world. You think you've been left behind, Zhang Yuchen, don't vent this grief and anger on me. ”

Ms. Ou said what Zhang Yuchen thought in her heart one by one, in fact, they all knew very well that Xiao Ling left the capital spontaneously and went to the territory of ****. If her mother was still alive, she would not have been harmed in the slightest.

Zhang Yuchen, who felt pressure, missed Xiao Ling and everything about her day and night. She couldn't do the things that Xiao Ling had done, she was blaming and punishing herself.

Ms. Ou took a step closer and tried to comfort her, but Zhang Yuchen categorically refused and fired a shot at Ms. Ou's feet.

"But you're still a traitor!! You're making peace with Principal Cui, that man, he once wanted to hurt Xiao Ling and hurt many people, have you forgotten? He has hurt you too!! ”

Zhang Yuchen became more and more excited, snot and tears running down his face. Ms. Ou looked at her for a moment, and then sighed heavily.

"I'm fifty years old, Yuchen. You know, I was in my early forties the year you entered school, and this year, I'm in my fifties. ”

Ms. Ou's sad feeling when she said this sentence made Zhang Yuchen's heart tremble, and she took off her red hat for the first time, revealing her hair combed into a bun, which was already half gray. Seeing the white hair, Zhang Yuchen was still very shocked. She vaguely remembered that when she entered the school at the beginning of the year, Ms. Ou was also wearing the same red dress and red hat, she was so radiant, and the queen's aura was strong. Eight years have passed, Xiao Ling and Zhang Yuchen have grown up, they have become stronger, they have become able to take charge of themselves, they have become independent consciousness, and they can decide whether they want to stay or not.

But Ms. Ou is old.

Zhang Yuchen finally put down the gun, and her slow movements showed the emotions in her heart.

"Don't sympathize with me." Ms. Ou said softly, shaking her head gently.

"It is precisely because I have gone through the years that I understand the true meaning of life, not in what I do or what I achieve, but in my heart, that little warmth, that person. Yuchen, I'm fifty years old, and there is no one around me anymore who can go through some things with me, rely on each other, and keep each other warm. No matter what Principal Choi has done before, I still want a little happiness. ”

Ms. Ou approached Zhang Yuchen, slowly raised her fingers, and stroked Zhang Yuchen's wet cheeks covered with tears.

"I didn't betray anyone, my heart still sticks to everything we have sworn with Xiao Ling. But I'm also a living person, I need warmth, I need communication, I need to rely on. So, forgive me for my weakness too, okay? ”

Ms. Ou's soft voice hit Zhang Yuchen's heart, and her mother-like gentleness made her whole anger slowly dissolve.

"It's your right, it's just me, it's my reason. I can't be like you, like Xiao Ling, I can't carry on our former career well, I let it go to waste!! ”

After saying that, Zhang Yuchen cried bitterly.

Ms. Ou gently leaned Zhang Yuchen's head on her shoulder as if she was treating her daughter, and said, "You don't need to be anyone, you just need to be yourself, if Xiao Ling knows that you are having a headache for this matter now, she will also feel that this is against her original intention." ”

Zhang Yuchen sobbed: "I'm just afraid that I will ruin everything for her." Xiao Ling cherishes her business so much. ”

Ms. Ou stroked Zhang Yuchen's hair lovingly, and said softly: "Have you ever expressed it to her, your feelings for her?" ”

Zhang Yuchen was stunned for a moment, raised his eyes and glanced at Ms. Ou, and snorted unnaturally: "Don't talk nonsense." ”

Ms. Ou chuckled twice: "I have taught many students, and when I was young, I also had many troubles. Your loyalty to Xiaoqing can't be seen by others, but I can see it. But in the end, she already has her life, and you should also let go of the past and find your own new life. ”

Now that it has been punctured, Zhang Yuchen no longer concealed it, and said blankly: "I once had a brief fantasy that after Xiao Ziya left, she maybe, I may be able to help her spend that time... Can... Ms. Ou answered, "But she doesn't have you in her eyes." ”
