Hello, Mr. Major General

Chapter 1417 - Remember You, Forget You



Chapter 1417: Remember You, Forget You

Gu Nianzhi and Ma Qiqi quickly switched off their phones and stopped whispering to each other.

The movie started playing on the rounded screen.

After five minutes of interlude screening, the official movie finally began.

The words ‘Waiting for You to Come Home’ appeared on the big screen from afar.

Gu Nianzhi and Ma Qiqi glanced at each other and grinned secretly.

The beginning of the movie seemed boring and old-fashioned to them.

However, when they saw the two men sitting upright beside them, they could only curse in their hearts. They could not show it.

However, as the story progressed, they were unconsciously attracted to the plot.

This movie was about a story that spanned half a century.

During the war years, the female protagonist and the male protagonist, who was a soldier, got to know each other and eventually got married.

Did you think the story was over?

How naive.

The love story during the war was just the beginning, from getting to know each other to getting married.

In the first five minutes, the female protagonist and the male protagonist got married. The speed of progression was indeed much faster than an ordinary web novel.

The year they were married, the war broke out.

One could only imagine that not long after the two got married, the male protagonist was recruited to the front line. A tough war had started.

In this war, the male protagonist was repeatedly rumored to have died in battle.

But because the army of the male protagonist had dispersed during the war, and because the unit later dissolved, no one could give her accurate information.

Hence, the female protagonist never believed those rumors.

She took care of their children and relied on her own meager strength to survive in the turbulent society.

In order to support herself and her children, she went through countless hardships. However, she refused to remarry and never forgot the love they originally shared.

Just like this, she waited for 50 years, and just when she was about to die, her son finally brought the news of her husband that she had been waiting for half a century.

It turned out that 50 years ago, her husband had already died on the battlefield.

She had waited for 50 years, in wait for a name to be etched onto the shrine of loyalty and sacrifice.

At this time, the theme song of the movie played.

“… Don’t cry, my dear,

You have to be well,

At the end of time,

You will definitely see me,

I’ll be singing and waiting for you to smile.

Even if I eventually break into powder,

You will live for me…

As long as I am remembered by you…

I will be immortal.”

This story was a common folktale in their era.

But to Gu Nianzhi and Ma Qiqi, there was something that struck a chord in their hearts.

No matter how many years and centuries had passed, such sadness and fear would always be a nightmare for military families.

When the song started, Gu Nianzhi’s tears instantly gushed out. She hugged Ma Qiqi and the two of them burst into tears.

Huo Shaoheng and Yin Shixiong glanced at each other helplessly and each pulled their woman over.

The movie ended, and the lights lit up one by one. The theater was filled with sobs.

There wasn’t much emotion expressed in the movie. It was plain, and it didn’t even show much of the cruelty and bloodiness of war.

But at the end, the hope that the female lead had been living for, a hope that had spanned half a century, was finally extinguished by a single piece of news. The audience finally understood what war entailed.

Especially the theme song at the end. The bleak baritone echoed in the theater like tear gas.

Gu Nianzhi clutched Huo Shaoheng’s lapels tightly and cried until she was out of breath. As she cried, she hugged him tightly as if she was worried that if she let go, he would disappear just like the male lead in the film.

Ma Qiqi was obviously thinking the same thing as Gu Nianzhi. She was also clinging onto Yin Shixiong tightly.

Yin Shixiong quickly led Ma Qiqi to the entrance of the movie theater.

When they reached the row where Bai Yueran and Zhao Liangze were sitting, he turned around to take a look.

Zhao Liangze’s eyes were red. He must have cried.

Bai Yueran’s face was solemn. Although she did not cry, she did not look too good either.

She gently advised Zhao Liangze, “… I know you’re thinking of Ah Shuang. However, she is a spirit in heaven, Hence, she might not be willing to see you like this.”

Zhao Liangze took out a piece of tissue to wipe his face. He muttered, “Director Bai, I know you’re trying to comfort me. But to me, Ah Shuang is unique and irreplaceable.”

“… whether you believe it or not, I’ve never thought of replacing Shuang’s position in your heart.”

Bai Yueran was silent for a while. Then, she leaned back on the chair and said in bewilderment, “To be honest, I don’t know why I still want to be with you, even if I know that from now on, the person in your heart will always be Shuang.”

Zhao Liangze stood up in disagreement. He said lightly, “You don’t have to think about it anymore. I have no intention of finding a girlfriend to marry. I have to go back. I still have a lot of work to do.”

Bai Yueran stood up silently and followed Zhao Liangze out.

Gu Nianzhi and Huo Shaoheng were the last to exit.

Gu Nianzhi was sobbing so much that her entire body was almost trembling.

“… Huo Shao, you have to come back…”

“If you don’t come back, I. . . I won’t live anymore…”

She had wanted to say that she would be with someone else as a threat to Huo Shaoheng. However, she loved him so much that she couldn’t even threaten him in this way.

Huo Shaoheng understood her intentions. He patted her back in amusement and said, “You make yourself the female lead even when you’re watching a movie. Nianzhi, you’re rather narcissistic.”

Gu Nianzhi lay in his arms and sobbed as she shook her head. “Who’s narcissistic? This is clearly something that could happen to us. Didn’t you see… Qiqi was crying so badly?”

“That was a special time of war. It won’t be like this in current times.” Huo Shaoheng comforted her. “Even if your life is in danger, I won’t let you wait 50 years to find out the result…”

Gu Nianzhi immediately covered his mouth, tears still glistening in her large eyes.

She scolded him in a low voice. “Bah Bah Bah! Don’t say such things!”

“Don’t say it, don’t say it…” Huo Shaoheng pulled her hand down and kissed it. “You’re thinking too much. In my position, why would I have to go through such danger? I’m not a field agent on a front-line mission.”

“It’s best if you don’t go at all.” Gu Nianzhi burst into tears and gradually recovered her composure.

Huo Shaoheng quickly took her out.

The staff of the screening room had poked their heads out of the door several times.

After they came out, those people immediately went in to clean up.

Huo Shaoheng took Gu Nianzhi for lunch again.

Gu Nianzhi had cried too much and she had a poor appetite. She only ate a little rice before putting down her chopsticks.

Huo Shaoheng ate the rest of the food.

After lunch, Huo Shaoheng took her to the military dog training camp to see her little corgi’s training results.

At this moment, he was glad that he still had that little corgi to make Gu Nianzhi happy.

The movie today was a long and dreary story to him.

But to that girl, it was like a teardrop bomb.

Gu Nianzhi’s tears had an especially low threshold. She had been crying since she was young.

He stared at Gu Nianzhi, who was sitting in the passenger seat listlessly. He smiled.

It was already one in the afternoon when they arrived at the military dog training camp.

Huo Shaoheng had called in that morning. Hence, Little Ah Ke had half a day off today.

Gu Nianzhi followed Huo Shaoheng to the dog training ground.

It was a huge lawn surrounded by a white fence.

A dozen majestic German black backs ran on the lawn. They were tall and had exceptionally long legs.

Gu Nianzhi looked at them casually. “They’re not even corgis… Where’s my little corgi?”

Huo Shaoheng stood beside her and stared at the German black backs that were huddled together. He stared at them for a while before pointing at them. “… they seem to be there…”

Gu Nianzhi looked in the direction of his finger and immediately felt like crying.

The little puppy that was so small a few months ago had now grown up.

However, no matter how big it was, it was still as small as a toy when compared to the German Shepherds with their long legs.

It was almost completely hidden behind the German Sherpherd’s long legs.

The dog trainer gave a long whistle, and the German Shepherds on the grass barked together. They ran frantically to the other side.

Poor little Ah Ke’s short legs could not outrun the German Shepherds at all.

However, it did not give up and continued to chase after it.

Gu Nianzhi looked at the dog’s head moving around and could not help asking, “… what are they going to do?”

“They’re going to eat.” Huo Shaoheng raised his finger and pointed. When Little Ah Ke ran over, the German Shepherds had already snatched all the food.

A small, short-legged dog had no choice but to circle around the food trough, occasionally licking the remaining food.

Huo Shaoheng awkwardly retracted his finger and scratched his forehead.

Gu Nianzhi widened her eyes. “They stole Little Ah Ke’s food! How could they do this?! My Little Ah Ke…”

Tears were about to fall again.

Huo Shaoheng quickly said, “No, no. Even if they stole the food, they would feed it separately.”

“Really?”

“Of course. Look at how fat it is. You can tell that they didn’t starve it.”

However, fighting for food was one of the training programs. Hence, the little corgi looked very pitiful.

Gu Nianzhi looked at little corgi circling the food trough. She stomped her feet and exclaimed with tears in her eyes, “No! I have to bring little corgi back! He’s not a military dog! How can we treat him like this?!”

Huo Shaoheng had always been a man of his word. He had never changed his decision.

But this time, under Gu Nianzhi’s persistent request, he had no choice but to ‘give in’.

His head hurt from her teasing, and he finally nodded in agreement. “If that’s the case, then I’ll take him back and keep him for two days. If he doesn’t listen, then I’ll bring him back.”

Gu Nianzhi broke into a smile and waved at the little corgi. She shouted, “Ah Ke! Ah Ke! Daddy and Mommy is taking you home!”

The training staff of the military dog camp and the German Shepherds looked up in surprise.

Huo Shaoheng was devastated. His face was burning hot, but his expression was calm as though he didn’t know Gu Nianzhi, and as though he didn’t hear what she had just said.

Gu Nianzhi couldn’t care less.

She was pleasantly surprised because the little corgi remembered her voice!

As soon as she finished speaking, her little corgi immediately stopped spinning and ran towards her.

Its short legs were running so fast that it looked like it was flying through the grass.

It came to Gu Nianzhi and Huo Shaoheng’s side and barked happily at them twice. Then it rolled on the ground and rolled on all fours, intending to act cute next to its mistress.

However, because its limbs were too short and stocky, it was difficult to turn back after rolling on the ground.

Its four little paws flapped in the air for a few times before it finally managed to stand up.

However, it was also exhausted. It stuck out its little tongue and begged Gu Nianzhi to pet it.

Gu Nianzhi picked it up and put her hand on one of its short legs. She said angrily to Huo Shaoheng, “Look! It’s obviously a pet dog. How can you train it like a military dog?”

Huo Shaoheng pursed his lips and said, “Call Ah Ke a pet dog,. Let’s see if he responds to you.”

Gu Nianzhi rolled her eyes at Huo Shaoheng and looked down at Little Corgi in her arms. “Mama’s pet, Little Corgi.”

Little Corgi’s watery black eyes looked at her intently. However, he did not respond.

Huo Shaoheng said in a low voice, “A military dog, Ah Ke.”

Little Corgi immediately barked, “Woof, woof, woof, woof!”.

Huo Shaoheng curled his lips. “See, aren’t I right?”

Gu Nianzhi, “…”
