Chen Jianjun was burning with a mix of anxiety and regret. He wanted to shout out, but knew this was neither the time nor the place, and the old man's identity must not be casually revealed!
A sense of loss flickered in his eyes.
He had finally gotten the chance to see the old man and yet, he hadn't been able to exchange a single word. What a shame!
Unexpectedly, Gu Lao shifted his gaze towards him and said profoundly, "Young man, you have been working hard."
Last month, Tingyun mentioned in a letter that Guibao's father had returned home after being wounded and discharged from the army.
In the younger generation of the family, he could easily tell who had been on the battlefield with just one glance.
Chen Jianjun eyes welled up at those brief words, and he nodded with a firm attitude, replying, "I am not suffering. It is all of you who have suffered most!"
The older generation, like Gu Lao, had dedicated their whole life to building up the nation.
