   Chapter 202

   1984.

  The children in the compound felt that the atmosphere of the compound was not right this year, as if something was happening quietly in a place they didn't know.

   Especially when they found that there were a lot less people in the compound, and it was a lot more deserted than before, and the adults were all worried.

   Although the children didn’t know what was going on, they were much quieter, no longer causing trouble, and seldom came out to play.

  The soldiers on the training ground are also working harder, and the loud training sounds of the training ground can be heard every day.

   Several children found that their mother has reduced a lot of work this year and is always in a daze in front of the phone.

  The family has subscribed many more newspapers this year. My mother reads the newspapers first thing in the morning. Every newspaper is read very carefully.

  My father’s letters were also sent less. The last letter was received during the Chinese New Year, and there were no letters after that.

   Occasionally called back several times in the middle, and the single call hung up within five minutes, and there was no time to say anything.

  Adults hide from children what is going to happen, but children are very sensitive, and the more you don't want them to know, the more curious they are.

  The compound is neither big nor small, but there are always a few people who will miss out, and the information between children spreads very quickly.

   I heard it one second, and within half an hour the next, all the children in the compound knew it.

   Some people are happy and some are worried. Some children's fathers went out after the New Year and have not come back yet, and some people's fathers are still at home.

   When hearing the news, the eyes of many children instantly turned red. They were all children who grew up in the college. They knew more about death than most children.

   They have also seen accidents caused by the war. A few days ago, they saw an uncle who was still healthy. A few days later, he may appear in front of them with a crippled leg or a missing arm. These are all injuries caused by the war.

   Ye Jinzhi, who was not used to listening to the radio before, also turned on the radio every day to listen. She dared not listen to it at home, for fear that some children would hear some bad news.

  The employees in the company found that their manager Ye was in a bad mood during this time, and he often had a dark face.

   Although she used to have a straight face in meetings before, but now she has a dark face, which makes the people sitting next to her stress even more.

   Those employees who report to work will tremble when they speak to Ye Jinzhi. If Ye Jinzhi looks at him, they will stutter directly.

  Although Ye Jinzhi didn't say anything, they were very nervous and scared, for fear that Ye Jinzhi would say "I won't be going to work in the future".

  Ye Jinzhi's deeds at the branch have long been spread to the headquarters. Originally, only a small number of people knew about Ye Jinzhi's horror. Because of that, Ye Jinzhi became famous.

   People who originally despised Ye Jinzhi were rushing to cooperate with Ye Jinzhi. Her methods were admired by many people.

   But there is a rumor recently that Ye Jinzhi's black face is because of divorce and he is in a bad mood.

   People who didn't know the inside story thought it was true, and some people even said at the dinner table that they would introduce Ye Jinzhi to someone, which made Ye Jinzhi angry on the spot.

   And some people know the inside story. They all know that Ye Jinzhi's lover is a soldier. It is said that his position is not low. Lenovo quickly guessed what happened recently.

   Whether you know it or not, you don't dare to provoke Ye Jinzhi during this time. After all, women like to hold revenge, and they will suffer when they think of it.

  In business, everyone doesn’t like to have enemies. It’s better to have one more friend than one more enemy. Everyone’s purpose is for profit.

   Yuan Shaochen and his party also arrived at Laoshan. After training for so long, they still had some immature faces at first, but now they can't be seen at all.

   After experiencing the challenges of many harsh environments, they have matured a lot, their skin has become much darker, and their palms have become much rougher.

   There are also scars of different sizes on the body, these are the symbols of heroes, everyone's eyes have also precipitated a lot, and the breath is bloody.

   "Everyone have a good rest tonight, prepare your spirits, and disband."

  The mountains here are high and steep, the ancient trees are dense, often covered by clouds and fog, and the trees are lush, just like the background of many immortals in later generations.

   After more than ten days of travel, everyone was exhausted, and suddenly it became quiet, and the former young minister fell asleep in bed.

   The weather in Laoshan at night is still very cool, and the clouds and mists at night are particularly thick. At a glance, you can see nothing in the white expanse.

   Looking for a place to dry, Yuan Shaochen put his hands behind his head, looking at the stars in the sky, wondering what he was thinking.

  I don't know if it's because of the connection, Ye Jinzhi also lost sleep tonight. After visiting a few children, he made himself a cup of coffee and stood outside the balcony.

  The long black hair fluttered behind his head with the wind, Ye Jinzhi didn't seem to feel the coolness, and stared into the distance in a daze.

   She had another nightmare just now. She dreamed that the Yuan Shaochen was covered in blood and his face was covered in blood. He lay there quietly, no matter how much she shouted, there was no response.

This is not the first time she has had this dream. Since the time is getting closer and closer, the frequency of her nightmares has become higher and higher. Sometimes she has two or three nightmares a night, and she has been in a state of insomnia for a long time. .

   As long as she thought that he might not come back, her heart could not be calmed down.

   After each nightmare, she would break out in a cold sweat, her clothes were all wet, her face was pale, and during the day she dressed up to make herself look better.

   Several children may also know about this, and they have become a lot more obedient during this time. She doesn't know how to tell them, and has been avoiding this topic.

   "Jingle bell -" The phone rang.

   Yuan Shaochen is actually taking a chance. Today is the weekend and he is not sure whether to stay at home or go to the company. They can only make one phone call.

  So, the moment he heard Ye Jinzhi's voice, Yuan Shaochen's heart was pounding and he was so excited.

   "Hello, who is it?" Ye Jinzhi had a wind blowing last night and caught a cold in the morning. He couldn't go to the company and had to work from home.

   At first, I thought it was a phone call from the company. I was looking for her for something.

   But she found that there was no sound from the other end of the phone, only rapid breathing could be heard, and the hand holding the pen subconsciously let go.

   "Boom-" The sound of the pen falling to the ground made Ye Jinzhi regain his senses.

   "Young minister?" His voice trembled with excitement, and he cautiously called into the phone.

   "It's me." It's been a long time since I saw him, and many of the words that Young Master Yuan had prepared were at a loss for words, and his mind went blank.

   Suddenly, Young Master Yuan noticed something was wrong.

"you are sick?"

   Ye Jinzhi didn't expect him to be so sensitive, so he could hear a word.

   "I'm fine, just a little cold." Ye Jinzhi took a deep breath.

   "How are you, what's going on over there?"

   "We arrived last night, don't worry, this place is very good, the scenery is also very good, there is a chance"

   "Wait a minute, I called the kids to answer the phone, they all miss you."

  Although they didn't say it, Ye Jinzhi saw that several children always took out the picture of Yuan Shaochen.
