Wang Zhong was immersed in his memories, humming a tune while he reminisced about his war journey until the corners of his eyes began to moisten.
But as the saying goes, a man's tears don't fall lightly, so he abruptly stopped reminiscing.
He turned his head to look at Ludmila, only to find that the girl was already using a handkerchief to wipe her tears.
Wang Zhong felt awkward, "Uh... don't cry."
Ludmila: "I'm crying for you because I see you're so emotional, yet you can't let your tears out."
"I'm fine, actually," Wang Zhong scratched his head.
He tried to stand up from the windowsill but was pulled back by Ludmila.
The girl looked at him and said softly, "You can lean on me a little more. When I first arrived at Shostka, I immediately burst into tears when I heard the news of Uncle Connie's death. Later, Nelly told me that you walked to the end of the platform, looking like you might cry at any moment."
