Chapter 368 - 367: Farewell, Looking to the Future
Chapter 368 - 367: Farewell, Looking to the Future
Since Lei Ting and the others went to the military dog training base, it has been almost half a year now.
During this half year, although there was news about them from time to time.
But they haven’t visited them yet.
As a mother, Amber didn’t say it, but naturally, she also misses the four cubs.
The military district training base is quite a long distance from Huan Sha Island, and going there takes a whole day by car one way.
But going from Huan Sha Island is still closer than going from Beijing.
If going from Beijing, it may take three or four days.
At that time, the chance to visit Lei Ting and the others would be quite small.
So, it’s better to take advantage of the time now and go see them all together.
After Gu Jia Ning suggested it, she looked at Sheng Zexi, and Xingxing, Yueyue, and Amber also looked at Sheng Zexi.
Waiting for his response.
Sheng Zexi was amused yet helpless.
"In fact, going to see Lei Ting and Shandian, I had already planned for it, it’s just that I didn’t have time to say it yet."
"Yay, that’s great." Xingxing and Yueyue cheered.
Amber was so happy that she barked and wagged her tail, spinning around in the house.
Sheng Zexi thought, as a family-raised dog, how could he not miss Lei Ting and Shandian.
It is said that soon, Lei Ting and the others’ training will finish, and by then they will be assigned to various places for duty.
It will be quite difficult to see them together again at that time.
So now is the best time to see them.
That day, the family’s luggage was all packed.
The next day was the time to leave.
Zhao Weiguo and Hui Juan brought Gou Dan’s family to see them off.
"Just like when you came, at that time I saw you into the island, now I’m seeing you off the island."
"A year has passed so quickly."
Zhao Weiguo was quite emotional.
Initially, Zhao Weiguo didn’t think much of Sheng Zexi and Gu Jia Ning’s family’s arrival.
Unexpectedly, later, this couple saved Huan Sha Island so much.
Whether it was Gu Jia Ning treating and saving lives as a doctor, or predicting that typhoon, or Sheng Zexi dealing with those drug dealers, or identifying and capturing the Lin Family and other people from the Country R.
In this year, the contributions made by the couple were immense.
If it weren’t for them, the losses on Huan Sha Island would have been unimaginable.
Thinking back to when he went to pick up Sheng Zexi’s family, at that time Doctor Gu said not to enter the island, predicting rainfall.
At that time, he didn’t believe it and insisted on entering the island.
Then he got a harsh lesson.
Looking back now.
He felt that at that time, he was really bold and truly had no knowledge of Doctor Gu’s abilities.
Doctor Gu, after all, was skilled at predicting the strong typhoons three days in advance.
And Sheng Zexi was also incredibly capable in various aspects.
He heard that after Sheng Zexi was transferred to the Beijing Military District this time, he directly became a regimental-level officer.
But he is only in his thirties!
At this age, reaching the level of a regimental officer.
Saying he has a promising future is not an exaggeration.
Although Zhao Weiguo knew Sheng Zexi had a father who was an officer.
But he also knew that everything Sheng Zexi achieved now was through his own ability and merits.
So, this couple, are truly capable people!
How could Zhao Weiguo not admire them?
Now that they are leaving, saying there is no attachment would be a lie.
"It’s just that the islanders don’t know you’re leaving, or else, you don’t know how they’d try to keep you." Zhao Weiguo said.
Whether it was Gu Jia Ning’s healing and saving lives, or the evacuation and rescue during the typhoon prediction, the islanders of Huan Sha Island are grateful to the couple Sheng Zexi and Gu Jia Ning.
Back then, after the strong typhoon.
The islanders organized themselves, bringing things from home, spontaneously going to the military district, wanting to give things to Gu Jia Ning and Sheng Zexi.
Thanking them for predicting the significant typhoon, saving their lives and property.
On this side, Xingxing and Yueyue were also reluctant to part with Gou Dan and his family.
Since they stayed at the Zhao’s that time.
They formed a great relationship with the simple, honest, and very caring Gou Dan.
"Xingxing, Yueyue, will you come back in the future?" Gou Dan asked with red eyes.
"We don’t know." Yueyue shook her head.
"I bought gifts for you with my saved New Year’s money, when you see the gifts, you’ll think of me."
Gou Dan took out two brand-new green tin frogs.
For children of this era, these were considered quite luxurious toys.
And Gou Dan using his pocket money to buy two to give to Xingxing and Yueyue shows how much he valued them.
Xingxing and Yueyue also naturally prepared gifts for Gou Dan, Yueyue gave him a beautiful pencil case.
Xingxing gave him a blue school bag.
Gou Dan has started school.
They had noticed earlier that Brother Gou Dan’s school bag was broken and not replaced, and he also didn’t have a pencil case.
So they planned to buy a pencil case and a school bag to give to Gou Dan before leaving.
It’s just...
Zhao Weiguo and his wife felt it was too expensive and were hesitant to let Gou Dan accept them?
Gu Jia Ning quickly said, "Why wouldn’t he accept them?"
"It’s all the children’s intentions, carefully chosen for a long time, if you make Gou Dan refuse them, they’d be heartbroken."
"These gifts, regardless of their value, carry sentiments."
"Don’t fail the children’s sentiments."
Under Gu Jia Ning’s persuasion, Zhao Weiguo and his wife eventually let Gou Dan accept them.
And Gou Dan, hugging the new beautiful school bag and pencil case, was moved to tears.
Finally, the children, with tears in their eyes, hugged for a long time before parting.
Before leaving, they were reluctant to part and kept saying that they should write letters and call each other often in the future!
They must meet if there’s ever a chance.
Hui Juan and Gou Dan didn’t follow them off the island naturally.
It was Zhao Weiguo who sent Sheng Zexi and Gu Jia Ning’s family off the island alone.
"Doctor Gu, do you think this weather is suitable for leaving the island? There shouldn’t be heavy rain, right?" Zhao Weiguo teased while helping them carry luggage.
Gu Jia Ning glanced at the weather forecast and then smiled, "Now Mr. Zhao trusts me?"
"The weather today is great, sunny and breezy."
"That’s good, then let’s set sail off the island."
As the boat moved forward, Gu Jia Ning looked at Huan Sha Island growing more distant, and infinite emotions welled up in her heart.
Although only a year was spent on Huan Sha Island, a lot happened during that year.
All in all, everything passed peacefully without any incidents.
"What are you thinking about?" Sheng Zexi asked, wrapping an arm around her.
"I was just thinking, I wonder what we will experience when we go to Beijing."
Sheng Zexi tucked her hair behind her ear and said, "Whatever we experience, as long as our family is together and works together, everything will only get better."
