Chapter 286: The Old Father’s Heart (1)
"Perhaps a small action can change the entire situation of the battle. Perhaps taking a step back when the enemy is advancing can give you a different view of the situation."
"Brother, how did you do it?" Lin Feng looked at Fang Chen and asked.
"Look at the overall situation, collect information, act accordingly, and anticipate the enemy to defeat them." Fang Chen said truthfully without reservation.
"You are worthy of being the eldest brother." The brothers admired him. The eldest brother is indeed the eldest brother.
"Think more about your next step and your opponent's next step. You all did a good job." Fang Chen said to his brothers. He used to take care of everything by himself, but after hearing their answers just now, Fang Chen felt that he might as well let go.
In the past, he always protected them with the mentality that he was the eldest brother, both a brother and a father, and took everything on himself.
When they reunited after being separated for many years, he forgot that they were no longer the brothers who needed his protection. They had become independent and self-reliant over the years and could still live well without his protection. Fang Chen felt very relieved.
After saying these words, Fang Chen suddenly stood up and quickly left the restaurant.
The brothers were stunned. What happened to the eldest brother? Why did he leave suddenly?
Only Ji Xiaomu, who was sitting next to Fang Chen and watching him, knew that Fang Chen's eyes were red just now. Seeing that the younger brother he raised was very successful, he felt sorry for the old father.
"It's okay. Your brother ate too much. Let's go out to digest the food." Ji Xiaomu said with a smile, "You guys have your meal! I ate a little too much, so I'll go walk with him."
Tie Laosan and Lou Yu looked at Fang Chen's leaving back, they silently withdrew their gazes, lowered their heads with slightly red eyes... pursed their lips tightly and took a few mouthfuls of rice with great force.
The other brothers seemed to have thought of something as well. They all became quiet for a moment, seemingly concentrating on eating.
Li Hong and Si Jing quietly left the restaurant and walked along the path in the garden. Li Hong was silent for a while, "I may understand... why I can't become Thirteen."
"Why?" Si Jing asked. She had heard Li Hong say that.
"Identity... I guess." Li Hong looked at the starry sky. "They are real orphans. They have experienced ups and downs together since childhood. When they grew up, they went to the battlefield together and experienced life and death. And I..."
"My father is still alive, I'm just out of favor, but I still have Lao Lu, and people who protect me... Fundamentally speaking, I have never been an orphan, I still have Lao Lu... and you." Li Hong said quietly.
"I will always be by your side." Si Jing took the initiative to hold Li Hong's hand, "I am not an orphan either, but I want to be part of your family."
Li Hong kissed Si Jing's lips passionately, and their hearts tightened even more.
When they separated after hugging each other, Li Hong picked up Si Jing and ran back to his room.
In the dark, Steward Lu, who happened to hear what Li Hong said, suddenly raised his head, a drop of crystal tears fell from the corner of his eye. He stood in the dark and looked at the starry sky for a while, and then walked into the darkness with a smile on his face.
When Ji Xiaomu found Fang Chen, Fang Chen was lying on the roof. She stood in the garden and looked at Fang Chen, smiling and asking, "The starry sky is particularly beautiful tonight, isn't it?"
"Auntie." When Fang Chen heard Auntie Ji's voice, he immediately sat up, jumped off the roof and came in front of Auntie Ji.
"Are you feeling better?" Ji Xiaoni said with a smile, "Oh, my old father's heart, was he moved just now? It feels like my son is growing up?"
"...Cough cough cough cough cough!" Hearing Ji Xiaomu's words, Fang Chen's face suddenly turned red and he couldn't help coughing. He hugged Ji Xiaomu in his arms and stopped her from continuing.
