Chapter 296 If you keep talking, you can make even the dead alive
The matter with Brother Xiong came to an end. Chu Xin left the lounge and went to check on the baby again. He had not woken up yet.
Chu Xin thought that this was good. If she woke up, she would cry herself to death.
"I'll go back and rest for a while. You stay with him. He might have a fever if he's injured so badly."
Chu Yunting was suddenly assigned a servant job by Chu Xin. He was stunned for a moment and immediately agreed.
"Okay, go back and rest, it's almost dawn."
Chu Xin nodded and turned to walk towards the soft sleeper car. She was not in a good mood at the moment. She had experienced many things like seeing people off in her two lives. Her heart, which she thought was already cold and hard, still felt uncomfortable.
He didn't go to see Mr. Chu again, but went straight back to his soft sleeper room. As expected, Li Xiu was still awake and was reading a book with a small lamp on.
"Auntie, go to sleep, it's almost dawn." Chu Xin washed up, took off her coat, and climbed onto the upper bunk, saying softly,
"Chu Yunting will not be back tonight. He will be taking care of the injured people over there."
Li Xiu gently closed the book and placed it on the small table. She clasped her hands together and scratched her nails for a while before saying:
"Xinxin, can I call you that?"
Chu Xin closed her eyes and uttered a soft "hmm".
"What does Auntie want to say?"
Li Xiu opened her mouth and said, "Can you help me persuade Tingting to transfer to another department...to do clerical work?"
It was worrying enough if she hadn't experienced it before. Although she didn't see it with her own eyes today, after hearing a few words from other passengers, her mind was filled with bloody images.
She was so scared. Dealing with those desperate criminals all day long, Chu Yunting would get hurt one day. She would feel sad even if he got a little skin broken, let alone lying there silently with blood all over his body.
Chu Xin turned over and put her head close to the edge of the bed so that she would be closer to Li Xiu, and told her the story she had just heard from Brother Xiong.
Before she could finish, Li Xiu couldn't help crying anymore.
She sighed. Her aunt had indeed cried too much. After a long time, she would now carry a handkerchief with her. She touched it and handed it to Li Xiu. She did not comfort him, but only said:
"I can't help you persuade him. This is his personal choice. For a person to have such a clear goal in life, something they are willing to sacrifice their life for, is truly remarkable and great.
I couldn't say anything to stop him from doing it.
Not to mention the big principles of serving the country and the people, in fact, if he is gone, there will be thousands and thousands of people to take his place. If he can do it, others can do it too. Why does he have to continue doing it?
Because Chu Yunting felt that his value lay there, and that was the goal he was striving for in his life.
Our predecessors have paved the way with their lives, and it will disappear if no one walks on it. Whether it is Chu Yunting or me, as long as we work on it for one day, we will risk our lives to get on with it.
I think instead of asking him to step down, it would be better to remind him to be safe and let him do his work without any worries."
Li Xiu wiped her tears with one hand and tightly grasped the quilt with the other. She understood what Chu Xin said and was proud of Chu Yunting, but the worry as a mother also tormented her.
This is the pain of being a military dependent. The torment she suffered in the past was brought to her by her husband, and now it is her son who has chosen the same path as his father.
Chu Xin did not open her eyes from beginning to end. Li Xiu's suppressed sobs were in her ears. It was rare for her to think of her mother in her previous life and her mother in this life.
Unfortunately, she became indestructible only after losing her parents in her previous life. Even with her parents in this life, she still needs to be strong and fearless to survive.
Chu Xin both envied Chu Yunting and was glad that she was not him, because she was used to making decisions on her own.
Thinking about all sorts of things, Chu Xin fell asleep unknowingly. Li Xiu cried silently for a long time and then fell into a deep sleep.
……
"Xinxin? Xinxin?" Someone was calling her.
Xinxin? Chu Xin was startled and sat up immediately.
"Who?"
Suddenly I saw the sunlight coming in through the small window and realized that it was already daybreak.
Li Xiu was startled by her action, thinking that Chu Xin didn't like her calling her like that, and quickly said:
"It's me! It's me."
To avoid embarrassment, he changed the subject, "Tingting is back, he's looking for you."
Chu Xin immediately lost all her sleepiness and put on her coat. After thinking for a moment, she was worried that Li Xiu might think too much, so she said something more.
"My mind is a little confused from sleep and I'm not used to it yet. I hope I didn't scare you."
You know, Zhao Bin and Liu Cuiling, those two annoying people, loved to whisper in her ears, which was so annoying.
The embarrassment on Li Xiu's face finally eased a little, and she shook her head and made way for Chu Xin to get down.
"It's okay. Quickly pack up and get out. Tingting said the train is about to arrive, and the Lan City police are coming to take over yesterday's incident. The injured young man will probably be taken away as well."
Chu Xin quickened his movements.
She knew that the boy had to go to the police, but she had to say what she needed to say first, otherwise it would delay things.
Chu Yunting was waiting outside. When he saw her come out, he immediately pulled her away, as if he was afraid that someone would catch up with them.
"I've already told Grandpa, you should go with me to see the mute first. When you wake up, keep looking for Brother Xiong."
Chu Xin paused and followed, "He can't accept it."
It's not a doubt, it's a certainty.
Chu Yunting nodded, his face looking a little unhappy, "Not only that, he was almost crazy, I tied him up."
After a moment of silence, he said, "I'm sorry, I didn't take good care of him."
Chu Xin patted his head and said, "What are you talking about? It has nothing to do with you."
Chu Yunting didn't know about Brother Xiong and the baby. He agreed to help take care of them out of his duty as a soldier.
Chu Yunting was not surprised by his sister's behavior of acting like an elder sister. He just touched the back of his head, smiled, and talked about something else.
"My mom was acting a little strange today. When I came over just now, she acted a little scary when she saw me. She wanted to hug me, but I refused. Then she said she wouldn't let me transfer to another department and told me to focus on my work.
What stimulated her?
Could it be that he was frightened by what happened yesterday and is planning to force me to submit by retreating as a means of advancing?"
Chu Xin knew that Li Xiu had figured it out himself, but after hearing Chu Yunting's nonsense guesses, she raised her hand and slapped him on the head again.
"Just shut up! If you keep talking, you might even revive the dead!"
