Ultimate Soldiers

Chapter 170 Perfection
In the Lin family's villa in Cangwu Mountain, Zhou Xuebing and Lin Wanting sat facing each other.

"What? The old man is taking us to meet his old friends?" Zhou Xuebing cried out in surprise.

"Well, Grandpa has already decided on this matter, no matter how much I persuade, it will be useless." Lin Wanting sighed helplessly.

At this time, it has been a full month since Yu Jing and Xu Xiangdi were forced into the palace by the Zhicheng Group. During this month, Zhou Xuebing lived a very comfortable life. At the beginning, he was responsible for picking up Zhou Binglong and Zhou Bingying every day. Later, the second uncle The family was discharged from the hospital one after another, so Zhou Xuebing didn't have to worry about picking up the two little guys.

Now Zhou Xuebing has almost nothing else to do except accompany Lin Xuping to go out for a stroll every day. It can be said that every day is a pain in the ass.

Although he is still famous in the Zhicheng Group, Zhou Xuebing has no interest in going to work now. Anyway, no one can control him now. He can go to work when he wants to, and he doesn’t if he doesn’t want to.

As a result, within a month, the number of times he visited the Zhicheng Group was limited.

And it's not just Zhou Xuebing, the head of security, who hasn't gone to work, even Lin Wanting, the president of Zhicheng Group, hasn't gone to work for more than a week.

The reason why Lin Wanting, a workaholic, can't go to work is very simple, because Lin Xuping's health has been getting worse and worse recently. After solving Yu Jing and Xu Xiangdi, Lin Xuping's health is getting worse day by day. In front of Lin Wanting, Lin Xuping still insisted on acting very strong, but everyone could feel that his energy was getting worse and worse.

In fact, this is not surprising at all. In the past, Lin Xuping had to endure no matter what because he was worried about Lin Wanting.

But now that the cancer in the Zhicheng Group has been resolved, and Lin Wanting has Zhou Xuebing by his side, Lin Xuping, who has no worries in his heart, has lost even the belief in holding on to live. Of course, his health will get worse and worse.

Lin Xuping at this moment is like a dilapidated machine that has been running for countless years. This machine is running all the time, and it looks good when it does not stop. But what if this machine suddenly stops one day, and After stopping for many days, when the machine starts up again, it may be the time for the machine to completely collapse.

Lin Xuping's death is inevitable, and recently his life has entered the countdown to death.

It was precisely because of this that Lin Wanting ignored the company's affairs and stayed by Lin Xuping's side every day.In recent days, Lin Xuping has rarely left the villa, and now he seems to be able to stay in the room only.

Lin Xuping's health has deteriorated to such an extent, of course Lin Xuping is not suitable for long-distance travel.

That's why Zhou Xuebing called out in surprise after hearing Lin Wanting's words.

"Who is the old man going to see?" Zhou Xuebing sat casually on the sofa and sighed.

"It's some old friends of grandpa when he was young. Grandpa hasn't seen them for many years. I don't know why he suddenly remembered them now." Lin Wanting shook her head and said.

"Then you find a way to take these people over. Now the old man's body is really not suitable for going to other places. Since the old man just wants to get together with old friends, then where is it not a gathering?" Zhou Xuebing pondered said for a moment.

In fact, now Zhou Xuebing has begun to gradually understand Lin Xuping's thoughts.

When a person is about to die, no matter how peacefully he dies, he still has some concerns about this world in his heart. Perhaps at this moment, Lin Xuping only has the good things in the past in his mind, so he wants to be so desperately. Meet an old friend from the past, and then die peacefully.

When Zhou Xuebing was facing a life-and-death crisis, what came to his mind was also the things from his childhood. These things were originally the purest pure land in a person's heart, so it is actually normal for a person to have such thoughts in his mind when he is on the verge of death.

But in other words, in fact, people only think about these things when they are about to die. At that time, these things will suddenly appear in the mind, replacing all the fame, status, and wealth, but at this time, it is too late to want to have those.

"I want to do this too, but Grandpa specifically told me that this time he wants to meet those old friends in person. If he can't go there in person, then he will not be reconciled even if he dies." Lin Wanting sighed.

"In that case, let's go. At most, make some preparations. If something really happens, there will be preparations." Zhou Xuebing nodded.

At this time, no one wants to go against the old man's ideas.

The atmosphere fell silent for a while.

After a long time, Lin Wanting with a gloomy face suddenly spoke again: "You said... my grandpa would..."

Lin Wanting still didn't say the next word, but Zhou Xuebing knew what she wanted to ask, even Zhou Xuebing knew what answer Lin Wanting wanted.

But after hesitating for a moment, Zhou Xuebing still didn't lie, he shook his head slightly and said.

"Yes, everyone dies, it's just a matter of time."

This kind of cruel answer made Lin Wanting unable to bear the sadness in her heart any longer, and the tears dripped down from her eyes.

Zhou Xuebing stood up, originally he wanted to go over to comfort Lin Wanting, but just as he walked to Lin Wanting's side, his expression suddenly changed, and he whispered to Lin Wanting.

"Don't cry, the old man is out."

Zhou Xuebing's words were quite effective. Lin Wanting stopped sobbing immediately before she could finish her sentence. She reached out and wiped her fair face indiscriminately, wiped away her tears, forced a smile, and looked up at the second floor. .

After a while, Lin Xuping's figure slowly appeared beside the stairs on the second floor.

Today, he seemed to be in good spirits. He greeted Zhou Xuebing and Lin Wanting downstairs, and then walked down the stairs slowly.

Zhou Xuebing and Lin Wanting did not move, nor did they go to help Lin Xuping.

This old man who wants to be strong is not willing to be supported by others even now.

"Good granddaughter, why are you crying again? Did your grandson-in-law provoke you again?"

Seeing Lin Wanting's unnatural expression, Lin Xuping certainly knew what was going on, but he pretended not to know, and laughed heartily to tease Lin Wanting.

"Old man, you are wronging me. I am a good man in the new era. I recite the rules of a good man every day, so I will never make my wife angry. I just recited the rules of a good man casually. Who knows?" This girl was so moved that she cried."

Zhou Xuebing grinned and said casually.

Now only he can talk and laugh with Lin Xuping like this.

In fact, Lin Wanting also knew that she shouldn't be too sad in front of her grandfather, so as not to make Lin Xuping feel uncomfortable, but when she thought that Lin Xuping was about to leave her forever, Lin Wanting couldn't control her emotions.

"Haha, it's just nonsense." Lin Xuping smiled, and then sighed: "Son-in-law, you also have to accompany me to meet those old friends this time, we probably won't have the chance to meet again in the future, so In any case, I have to go there, not only to meet these old friends, but also to go back to my hometown... I will never forget the mountains of persimmon trees in my hometown, until the persimmons are ripe. At that time, the mountains and plains were full of flames, and my friends and I were lying on the persimmon trees every day..."

Lin Xuping looked nostalgic, as if he was immersed in the beautiful scene that he had almost forgotten.

home!buddy!Flaming persimmons... These things are definitely more important to Lin Xuping than the Zhicheng Group.

"Old man, Wanting and I were discussing this matter just now. We have already discussed it. We will set off tomorrow to meet your old friends one by one. We will go to your hometown at the last stop. I think this We can call this action the Dream Realization Project, after you realize your dream, old man, I will come again." Zhou Xuebing said with a light smile.

"Dream come true! It's dream come true." Hearing these two words, Lin Xuping couldn't help but tremble all over.

The piece of fiery red persimmon seemed to appear in front of his eyes again.

……

Now that he has decided to accompany Lin Xuping on this trip, everyone in the Lin family is busy preparing.

The next day, a convoy quietly left Jinhai City.

I'm afraid no one would have expected that a dominant presence who had mastered the largest company in Jinhai City for decades would quietly leave Jinhai City and run towards his most primitive dream.

Starting from Jinhai City, the Lin family's convoy went to several cities one after another.

The trip to realize dreams does not necessarily come to fruition. Many of the old friends Lin Xuping was looking for have been lost, and many have already passed away from this world. In the end, Lin Xuping saw only a few people .

Seeing these gray-haired old men hug each other excitedly, talking happily about the past, even people in Zhou Xuebing's state of mind couldn't help feeling a little sour in their hearts.

In fact, Lin Wanting was always worried, fearing that Lin Xuping's body would not be able to hold on, and one day he would suddenly collapse on the road.

But her worries were obviously unnecessary.

After many days of running around, even Lin Wanting felt a little tired, but Lin Xuping, whose body was already extremely weak, became more and more excited. If it was not clear that Lin Xuping's health was getting worse, Zhou Xuebing might have Others would think that Lin Xuping had recovered.

After spending more than half a month, Lin Xuping finally traveled all the places he wanted to go.

Even his hometown, the remote village that Lin Wanting had never been to, Lin Xuping also visited in person, but this village is very different from the hometown in Lin Xuping's memory. The fiery red persimmon trees all over the mountains and plains have become very few, and the new buildings in the village also make Lin Xuping feel strange, and more importantly, few people in the village still remember Lin Xuping, who once grew up in this village. big people.

"Damn, dog tail... persimmon tree."

On the way back to Jinhai City, Lin Xu with a slight smile on his face closed his eyes slowly.He muttered to himself, calling out the nicknames of those little friends back then, but now no one could answer him, and most of his little friends had turned into mounds in the village.
