He didn't know how long it would take for him to recover from the wounds, and he did not have the courage to tell his sweetheart.
"When will she be coming back, then?" Ye Shuyun was keen on meeting her daughter-in-law. She also wanted to find out whether her son's wounds had been worth their price. On second thought, she decided that her son should be the judge of that.
"Two months later," calculated Lu Yi. Time flew by, and almost a year had passed since his sweetheart's enlistment. She would be leaving the armed forces soon. Being a soldier wasn't easy, but she made it.
Ye Shuyun had wanted to ask more, but decided against it in consideration of her son's disposition. As her son said, she will get her answers when the time comes. Throwing these questions around was pointless if she could not meet her in person.
She then felt relieved, knowing that her troublesome son would have a home of his own in the future.
