————————
Xie Jingchen knew that he owed his wife so many promises.
The country was vigorously developing various industries, accumulating reserves over more than ten years, producing numerous elite and outstanding military personnel. Compared to that,
his persistence was merely Xie Jingchen's own persistence.
Besides, just because he was no longer a military man, didn't mean he couldn't serve the country, right?
He had fulfilled all the promises he made to Elder Liu initially. Now, he should live for his small family.
Upon calculating, he was over forty-four years old. In a blink, he had climbed from a young soldier at the age of fourteen, and became an elder soldier for thirty years. He would have retired earlier if not for his wife's relentless effort in nursing his health to complete the missions.
Thinking of this, Xie Jingchen felt the old wound on his waist aching subtly again...
His spirit was unwilling to admit defeat, but his body had indeed weakened.
