C8 I Wish You All the Best of Luck

"Dad?" Soong Lyi's pupils trembled. For a moment, the entire world went blank. "Dad, look at me again. I'm Lyi. I'll listen to you in the future. Open your eyes again and look at me …"

It was as if a huge hole had been dug into Soong Lyi's heart. With every breath she took, her muscles, nerves, and even her lungs were torn apart by the pain.

Soong's mother had always known that Soong's father was hanging onto his last breath, waiting to see her daughter. She was already mentally prepared, but when she really arrived, she couldn't take it anymore and fainted from sadness.

The doctor took Soong's mother to another ward to rest and recuperate. He also kept comforting Soong Lyi to restrain her grief.

For a moment, Soong Lyi suffered a double blow and almost fell to the ground.

However, she knew that she could not fall, nor did she have the right to fall.

Soong Lyi took care of her mother while she took care of her father's affairs.

In the span of seven days, she had lost a large amount of weight and the light in her eyes had disappeared.

The unit was urging Soong Lyi to go back to work. She directly applied to resign without any hesitation.

It was time to bid farewell to his old life …

Soong Lyi's eyes couldn't help but turn red as she thought back to the man she fell in love with.

She picked up her phone and dialed Lih Haozhe's number.

The phone rang three times and was answered.

"Hello?" It was a familiar voice.

Soong Lyi calmed herself down and tried her best to keep her voice normal: "Lih Haozhe, I will let you go … … "I wish you well, I wish you well, and everyone is happy."

"What's the matter with you?" Lih Haozhe noticed Soong Lyi's confusion.

Soong Lyi didn't say anything else. Instead, she hung up the phone with tears streaming down her face.

She wiped away her tears and put Lih Haozhe's number on the blacklist without hesitation.

A few days later, the unit called Soong Lyi, saying that they still had some work to do and that they needed to interview her again. They hoped that she would find some time to return to Yiyang City.

Soong Lyi nodded in agreement. She also had something to clean up from her previous rental house, so she needed to make a trip back.

Yiyang City Fire Building.

Soong Lyi walked across the sports field to the administrative office and saw a group of soldiers in camouflage uniforms, sweating as they trained.

They were tall and straight, as brave and fierce as tigers, displaying their heroic nature.

The leader of the group faintly let Soong Lyi see Lih Haozhe's shadow.

She shook her head to clear it and went into the office.

After exiting the Division Chief's office, Soong Lyi buried her head in her phone and fixed a flight ticket to Lingcheng that night.

At the turn of the stairs, she was pulled by a powerful force into the fire escape!

Soong Lyi cried out in alarm, but a rough hand had already covered her mouth.

"It's me..."

Hearing the familiar voice, Soong Lyi's nervous aura gradually calmed down, but in a blink of an eye, her heart had tensed up once again.

She stepped out of Lih Haozhe's arms and stood face to face with him at a safe distance.

Lih Haozhe was wearing an olive green camouflage uniform. Compared to his usual orange fire uniform, he looked even more military and valiant.

It seemed that the person who had been conducting the training on the field just now was indeed him.

"Why did you resign?" Lih Haozhe lowered his voice.

Soong Lyi lowered her eyes and looked at his military boots as she replied in a muffled voice, "I'm tired. I don't want to work anymore."

"What's the matter with you?" Lih Haozhe frowned as he looked at her with an inquisitive expression.

"At first, it was because of a man that came to the Yiyang City, but now, it's because of the same man that you want to leave. Are you satisfied with such an answer?" Soong Lyi said in a light voice, her lips curving into a mocking smile.

Lih Haozhe stared at her with his pitch-black eyes, while the light in his eyes fluctuated slightly.

In the end, he did not say anything as he opened the door and let her leave.

Lih Haozhe understood that since he chose not to tell them the truth in the first place, he would forever lose the opportunity to tell them the truth …
