Seeing that Tan Ming didn't say anything, Zhang Hui yawned and turned off the lights.

"Go to bed quickly. You are almost 60 years old. Why are you still talking about first love so late at night? You must be too full."

"During the Chinese New Year, we had a reunion with our high school classmates. I even saw my high school idol. He was bald with white hair and a greasy face. He fell straight from the clouds into a mud pit."

Tan Ming lay down and said in a deep voice: "Huihui, I don't have any other ideas, I just want to explain this to you."

Zhang Hui turned around and looked at him in the dark shadow:

"No need to explain. If you had explained it to me when we were young, I might have been touched and my heart would have been moved. But if you were to tell me now, I would just find it boring."

"At this age, the term first love is a big joke. What is first love? It's just a relationship that happened when you were too young and your brain wasn't fully developed."

"Everyone has had a few relationships. What's there to complain about?"

Tan Ming had a lot to say just now, but Zhang Hui refuted it all and he couldn't say a word.

After a long while, he spoke again.

"Huihui, am I an annoying old man in your place?"

Zhang Hui sighed and turned over.

"Tan Ming, whether you are an annoying old man or not is up to you. At the moment, I can score... 79 points, which is not that annoying."

Tan Ming almost choked on his saliva.

“Why is it 79? Is it so difficult to give it 80 points?”

Zhang Hui chuckled.

"Well, 80 points is difficult, and that one point is very difficult. Tan Ming, you don't have to care so much about my opinion. We are two independent individuals, so there is no need to get entangled so deeply."

"Didn't I tell you that next week our sister group will travel to Eagle Country for a 20-day trip?"

"Look, there's not much chance that we'll get tired of each other, so don't worry. Of course, if you have any new pursuits, just tell me, I won't stop you."

"I won't waste my precious life on such meaningless quarrels. I'm going to sleep. I have to go see my mother tomorrow."

After saying that, he turned over and soon began to snore softly.

Tan Ming stared at the dark ceiling for a long time.

Tan Yuzhang was admitted to the electronic information engineering major at the University of Science and Technology last year. This week he went hiking with his classmates and did not go home.

At the beginning of this year, Zhang Hui retired and joined the sister group, starting a fulfilling retirement life.

Tan Ming knew that Zhang Hui was a bold and somewhat carefree person, but he did not expect that her thoughts were so trendy, complex and clear.

As he pondered, his eyelids gradually drooped.

He turned over in a daze, put his arm on Zhang Hui, and muttered softly.

"Huihui, I haven't thought about any new pursuits. I've never... never thought about it."

In the darkness, Zhang Hui's eyelashes trembled slightly. She covered the arm with her hand and fell asleep peacefully.

......

The next morning, Tan Ming got up early and went out to buy breakfast. When he came back, Zhang Hui was already packing things to take to her parents' house.

The couple quickly finished their meal and drove to the military academy.

In the car, Zhang Hui leaned back in the chair and dozed off, feeling a little tired.

"Why, didn't you sleep well last night?"

Zhang Hui stretched her neck and then closed her eyes to rest:

"Well, I woke up in the middle, and I couldn't fall asleep for a long time. It's menopause, and the symptoms are quite obvious during this period."

"Let Tan Mu find a doctor to treat you systematically. You have spent a lot of energy and strength on Yu Zhang over the years, and you really need to rest."

Zhang Hui hummed dejectedly and said nothing more.

The car fell silent again.

"Huihui, I will tell mom about Xia Qing today. In fact, I told mom a long time ago that Xia Qing is no longer a problem for me."

"Huihui, what I actually wanted to tell you yesterday is that those things in the past are completely in the past. I have never thought about other messes."

"For so many years, I have you and my son. I am very content."

Zhang Hui turned her head to look at Tan Ming, whose hair had turned gray, and felt a sense of inexplicable emotion in her heart.

"Tan Ming, you've never said what's in your heart like this. I thought Xia Qing was something you could never touch."

Tan Ming sneered:

"It's not that you can't touch it, it's just that it's not worth wasting your time on it. There's something I've never told anyone else. Tan Mu asked me several times, but I didn't tell him."

"What's the matter?" Zhang Hui asked appropriately.

"Back then, through some special channels, I got some photos of Xia Qing having an affair with a professor from Beijing Normal University, as well as photos of the DNA test results of her ex-husband and daughter."

"Then I took this and forced Xia Qing to leave Beijing. I told her that if she didn't leave and continued to make trouble, I would post these in their hometown village and make their family unable to hold their heads up forever."

Zhang Hui sat up straight and looked at Tan Ming with shock.

"Tan Ming, you would still do such a thing."

This is indeed not Tan Ming's style at all.

Tan Ming, a soldier and prosecutor from a military family, had a very upright and old-fashioned mindset. This kind of thing was beyond his understanding.

Tan Ming sighed deeply.

"I have never said anything for so many years, but I always feel that this matter... well, how should I put it, it is beyond my three views, and I always feel uncomfortable."

"Since my goal has been achieved, I'll just let it go. I thought it would never come up again in my lifetime, but I didn't expect..."

Zhang Hui reached out and patted his arm:

"It's nothing wrong. It's a very civilized way to treat someone like that. If it were me, I would find someone to beat her up. Of course, you're a prosecutor, so you wouldn't do such a thing."

Tan Ming laughed:

"You know what, I really thought about finding someone to deal with her, but I quickly rejected the idea. The reason is what you said."

"Tan Ming, you should have told our mother about this. This would have put her at ease and she wouldn't have had this incident yesterday."

Tan Ming nodded:

"Well, I have reflected on it. Indeed, at that time I just wanted to never talk about this terrible thing and this terrible person again, but I didn't expect that talking about it would make my family feel completely at ease."

"It will reassure my parents and you, too. Huihui, I'm actually afraid that you'll think too much."

Zhang Hui looked out the car window with sore eyes.

"Tan Ming, after all these years, today is the last time we can truly have a deep exchange of our thoughts. I always thought that we would never be able to have this state again."

"I even thought at one point that our relationship might not last many years."

Tan Ming slammed on the brakes, causing Zhang Hui, who was sitting in the passenger seat, to stagger.

"Ah... I'm sorry Huihui, I was distracted. Huihui, no, I won't let us go to that point."

There was a hint of hoarseness in the voice at the end.

Zhang Hui turned her head and saw that there were a lot of red bloodshot in Tan Ming's eyes when he looked at her.

"Didn't you sleep well last night? Your eyes are so red."

"Well, I didn't sleep well. I thought a lot."

......

At the gate of the military academy, Tan Ming's car drove into the gate and he saw a figure out of the corner of his eye. He pulled the car to the side of the road, stopped it, and lowered the window to look over.

It was Xia Qing, who was registering visitors at the gate.
