"What did you say?" Shen Yunfang stared blankly at the person in front of her.
Li Hongjun stood by the bed without speaking.
The room was silent for a while.
After a long time, Shen Yunfang finally asked slowly, "Is it settled?"
Li Hongjun kept his eyes fixed on his wife and slowly nodded.
"When are you leaving." Shen Yunfang felt her heart twist as she asked the question. How had she forgotten, how could she forget, the beginning of '79 was the start of the war against Vietnam.
As a soldier, once Li Hongjun knew of this news, he was bound to yearn for the battlefield; how could she forget this.
"I'm leaving tomorrow," Li Hongjun clenched his teeth tightly.
Shen Yunfang suddenly raised her head and glared fiercely at the man in front of her, "You're leaving tomorrow, and you're only telling me now?" her voice sharp.
"Wife, I'm sorry." Li Hongjun stepped forward, bending down to try and hold her in his arms.
