Chapter 992 Farewell

After leaving Commander Chen Cheng's villa, Ye Shaohong did not return to the 11th Division's garrison.

Instead, they went back to the Ye family mansion.

This time, he didn't bring Du Yu with him and went back alone.

As Ye Shaohong knocked on the door and entered, he saw Yu Manli leisurely strolling with her child in the courtyard square.

Ye Shaohong stopped in his tracks at that moment.

Standing in the twilight of the setting sun, looking at the beautiful figure not far away, Ye Shaohong felt as if the fatigue of the past few days had vanished in an instant.

An indescribable peace had filled his heart. "This is wonderful!"

Without any extra words, just these two words, in the simplest and most sincere way, fully expressed Ye Shaohong's feelings at this moment.

Just at this time.

As if sensing something, Yu Manli turned her head back.

Upon seeing Ye Shaohong, Yu Manli couldn't help but be slightly taken aback.

Then came a radiant smile.

"Shao Hong, you're back."

"Yeah ah!"

The moment Yu Manli uttered those words, Ye Polu, who was being held in her arms, also saw Ye Shaohong's figure.

He waved his arms and shouted anxiously.

That eager look melted Ye Shaohong's heart, and he couldn't resist any longer, running over in a few steps. "Ah!"

"Little Polu, do you miss your father?"

"Eeya, eeya."

Today, Ye Polu is over nine months old and he is able to roll over and climb.

She also started to learn to walk.

It's still a bit too much to ask him to speak.

But so what?

Children are a father's most precious treasure, and this is Ye Shaohong's eldest son, who is the apple of his eye. Even though the child cannot speak yet, Ye Shaohong still loves him dearly.

Seeing Ye Polu calling out incoherently, and seeing his outstretched arms, Ye Shaohong immediately rushed forward and snatched Ye Polu from Yu Manli's arms.

They playfully teased the little guy.

After all, they were blood relatives. Ye Polu was also very happy and affectionate towards Ye Shaohong. The two father and son immediately started talking in the courtyard square, their conversation seemingly nonsensical.

"Eeya, eeya."

"Polu missed me? Father missed you too, come and let me give you a kiss."

"Eeya, eeya!"

Xiao Polu raised his arm and placed it on Ye Shaohong's head, stopping him from kissing him.

"Hey, what's up?"

"Yeah!"

"Did your beard prick you? Okay, okay, I'll go shave it in a bit!"

"Eeya, eeya!"

Such a heartwarming scene naturally caught Yu Manli's eye. Yu Manli stood to the side without saying a word, but her face was already beaming with the gentlest and brightest smile.

It's full of sweetness.

Before they knew it, Ye's father and mother also came out after hearing the noise.

Inevitably, there were complaints from Ye's mother and the authoritarianism of Ye's father.

Unlike when he was outside, Ye Shaohong lost his imposing and domineering aura when facing his family and parents.

At that moment, he was just a father and a son.

After a brief conversation, Ye's mother had someone bring food to Ye Shaohong, which were his favorite dishes.

After the meal, Ye Shaohong went to the back garden to pay his respects to the old man.

Ye Shaohong's attitude towards the old man changed again.

He became increasingly obedient.

After chatting with the old man for a while, we started talking about what was happening inside the 11th Division.

Finally, without realizing it, the two started talking about Commander Chen Cheng.

The old man also had a lot of praise for Commander Chen.

According to him, the current government is rife with corruption, with nine out of ten officials being treacherous, and the other one being a dull and honest person.

Only one in a hundred people can be found who is honest and upright.

Commander Chen was one of those who survived out of a hundred.

Extremely rare.

The old man did not show any disappointment at Commander Chen's invitation today.

On the contrary, they were quite delighted.

He said that integrity and honesty are indeed important, but it also depends on the specific circumstances.

An honest and upright person is suitable for working at the grassroots level.

With them around, public morale can be stabilized and grievances can be resolved...

Now that Commander Chen is in his position, simply being honest and upright is not enough.

Having less flexibility is not necessarily a good thing for the country and its people.

Only by adapting to changing circumstances can one achieve stability and thoroughness.

Afterwards, the old man also praised Ye Shaohong's way of dealing with the situation.

They believe that Ye Shaohong has gradually matured.

He was no longer the low-ranking officer who had just joined the Special Service Department. Ye Shaohong was now showing signs of becoming a powerful politician.

As long as one can maintain one's true self, a little scheming and deception can not only protect oneself but also allow Ye Shaohong to better realize his ideals.

This may seem like the cruelty of growing up, but in reality, it is a change in human nature.

It is the price of a man's growth.

Ye Shaohong didn't say anything about this; he simply fell into a brief moment of contemplation.

Because Ye Shaohong suddenly remembered his future self.

When he first entered university, he was full of vigor and ambition, pontificating about everything.

But as graduation season arrived, he entered society and the workplace. After experiencing setbacks and frustrations, many of his sharp edges were gradually worn away.

In the dead of night, he would sometimes drown his sorrows in alcohol alone and cry in secret.

But when he woke up the next day, he was still trying to adjust to society.

This is an unchangeable fact.

The price of growing up.

And so, Ye Shaohong and the old man chatted for a very long time in the Ye family's back garden.

Ye Shaohong only took his leave when the old man was already sleepy. Returning to his room, he looked at his eldest son, who was already fast asleep, and then held Yu Manli in his arms and fell into a deep sleep himself.

Early the next morning, Ye Shaohong left the Ye family.

They turned back to the 11th Division's garrison.

Inside the 11th Division's garrison, Ye Shaohong signed the execution order.

In front of many officers and soldiers of the 11th Division, he dragged the Japanese spies and traitors who had been discovered and captured in the past few days directly to the execution ground.

He was executed in public.

As the gunshots rang out and the villains fell to the ground, the officers and soldiers of the 11th Division who were watching erupted in uncontrollable cheers.

Subsequently.

The 11th Division, with over 10,000 soldiers, set off directly for the Changsha battlefield. The main force moved forward, swaying gently.

The line stretched for two or three kilometers.

Ye Shaohong and a group of Military Intelligence Bureau personnel stood guard at the roadside to see off these patriotic heroes.

They all knew very well that these people were leaving today, and many of them would be buried in foreign lands.

It's hard to go back.

But none of these people showed any regret or fear.

To save their country from peril, they resolutely went to the front lines, ready to risk their lives to protect the motherland that has been passed down for thousands of years, and to protect their families and children in the rear.

They are all respectable people.

Therefore, Ye Shaohong was willing to personally see them off, and no one in the Military Intelligence Bureau harbored any resentment.

Until the entire 11th Division was sent away.

They were far apart and could not meet. Ye Shaohong then waved his hand and led the others who had come to support the Bayin case onto military vehicles, returning to the mountain city together.
