Names: Uncle Zhao Mengsheng, Father-in-law Pei Yihong

Pei Xiaotong listened, her cheeks flushed slightly, but her heart felt warm.

My biggest wish is for Qi Tongwei to wake up soon.

Not long after, Zhao Mengsheng, Liu Lan, and Wu Shuang also rushed to the hospital.

All the words can be summed up in one sentence.

We hope Tongwei will wake up soon.

Three days later, the miracle finally happened.

The door to the intensive care unit was pushed open.

The doctor smiled and said, "Good news, Qi Tongwei's family! Qi Tongwei is awake!"

Everyone immediately crowded around, and Wu Shuang excitedly asked, "Doctor, can we go in and see the patient?"

The doctor frowned and said, "It's best not to disturb the patient."

Cheng Du grabbed the doctor's arm, "Doctor, could you make an exception?"

The doctor said helplessly, "Only one can go. What the patient needs most right now is rest."

"Thank you, doctor. I am Qi Tongwei's wife. I'll go now." Pei Xiaotong quickly walked in.

Looking at Qi Tongwei, whose eyes were open, tears streamed down her face.

She wiped away her tears, smiled, and walked to the bedside. "Tongwei, I'm here."

Qi Tongwei sat up. "Xiaotong, you're here. I never imagined our first meeting would be at the hospital."

Pei Xiaotong pressed down on Qi Tongwei's hand, "Tongwei, don't move. Don't push yourself so hard in the future. I've been worried sick these past few days."

Gao Fangfang placed the washbasin and towel at the doorway.

Pei Xiaotong nodded to Gao Fangfang, then carried a basin of hot water to the bedside.

She wrung out a hot towel and carefully wiped Qi Tongwei's face.

Qi Tongwei felt a little embarrassed.

Close your eyes, then slowly open them.

What came into view was a delicate and gentle face.

So lovely.

She has more poise and is more beautiful than Chen Yang.

Pei Xiaotong's eyes reddened, and she pouted, "Tongwei, what will I do if anything happens to you?"

Qi Tongwei felt a warmth in his heart. "I'm sorry, Xiaotong, I made you worry. Look, I'm fine now."

Their eyes met, filled with unspoken longing.

That thrill of love at first sight spread in their eyes.

Qi Tongwei tried to hold Pei Xiaotong's hand; it was cold and soft.

That touch sparked a feeling of attraction.

Zhao Mengsheng and Wu Shuang were relieved to see that Qi Tongwei was really alright.

Qin Xueliang demanded that the hospital provide him with the highest level of treatment.

Qin Xueliang, Zhao Mengsheng, and Lu Guangrong gathered together to discuss the follow-up arrangements for Qi Tongwei.

Qin Xueliang sighed, his tone grave: "Comrade Qi Tongwei was seriously wounded while protecting his comrades. He was shot three times in the chest and abdomen. Although he has regained consciousness, his body is severely damaged and he is no longer suitable to stay in the army and participate in high-intensity training and border patrol missions."

Lu Guangrong nodded: "Commander Qin is right, we should consider letting him transfer to civilian work."

At this moment, Zhao Mengsheng spoke up, "I have a suggestion: Qi Tongwei is currently the deputy regimental commander, so we should directly promote him to the position of regimental political commissar."

Let him go to Kyoto to recuperate.

After he recovered, he was allowed to change careers.

This way, his talent won't be wasted, and he can also take good care of his health, balancing work and well-being.

Qin Xueliang and Lu Guangrong exchanged a glance and nodded in agreement; neither of them objected.

Wu Shuang also plans to return to Kyoto.

She held Zhao Guoqiang's hand and said, "Guoqiang, from now on, Qi Tongwei is your own brother. No matter where he goes or what job he does, you must help him."

Zhao Guoqiang nodded. "Grandma, I understand. I am a grateful person."

Upon learning that Qi Tongwei was leaving northern Xinjiang, Zhao Guoqiang, Guo Fendou, Cheng Du, Zhang Qi, Liu Hailong, and others all came to see him off.

At this time, Qi Tongwei was already the political commissar of the regiment.

Cheng Du felt that his colleague Wei Ge was someone he could hardly look up to, as his promotion speed was too fast.

Zhao Guoqiang held Qi Tongwei's hand and said, "Political Commissar, don't worry. We will continue to complete the work you didn't finish. The brothers will protect our border."

Qi Tongwei smiled. "Guoqiang, alright, the brothers are in your hands now."

Cheng Du was genuinely reluctant to part with him. "Brother Tongwei, no matter where you go or what job you do in the future, I'll follow you. Wherever you go, I'll go. I'll always work for you!"

Qi Tongwei shook his head. "Chengdu, take my gun and guard the border for me."

Guo Fendou, Zhang Qi, Liu Hailong, and others also spoke up, expressing their reluctance to part ways.

Even after seeing you off for a thousand miles, we must eventually part ways.

After a simple send-off ceremony, Qi Tongwei, Pei Xiaotong, Wu Shuang, Gao Fangfang, Zhao Mengsheng, Liu Lan and their entourage checked in and boarded the plane to Kyoto.

After the plane took off, Qi Tongwei leaned back in his seat, looking at the ever-changing clouds outside the window, feeling a mix of emotions.

This is his first time in Kyoto since his rebirth.

In this life, he must seize the opportunity to be an upright person, work diligently, and create a world of his own.

Looking at Pei Xiaotong beside him, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.

Love can be this sweet.

Pei Xiaotong sat beside him, not disturbing him, but just watching quietly.

The more I look at him, the more handsome he seems.

Gao Fangfang sat opposite them, watching the two of them, and couldn't help but tease, "Xiaotong, you really only have eyes for Tongwei now, you've even forgotten about your good friend me."

"A guy who values ​​women more than friends."

Pei Xiaotong blushed slightly, but didn't hide it. "Of course, Tongwei is a great hero who needs to be taken care of now, so of course I have to protect him."

When you find a partner in the future, you'll definitely be just like me.

Gao Fangfang pouted: "No way, I don't want to be in a relationship yet. I'll wait until graduation."

"By the way, Tongwei, what kind of job do you plan to do after you transfer to civilian work?"

Qi Tongwei opened his eyes. "Fangfang, focus on recovering first. Once you've fully recovered, follow the organization's instructions."

To be in politics, one must be in politics.

Wu Shuang felt very gratified. "Tongwei is such a down-to-earth kid. No matter what happens, he's never arrogant or impatient. He's sure to have a bright future."

Zhao Mengsheng nodded: "Our Tongwei is brave and resourceful, and meticulous. He can shine in both the military and civilian life."

Let's talk about it when you've recovered more or less, don't rush.

"Let me know which company you'd like to work for anytime."

"Thank you, Uncle Zhao." With an uncle like Zhao Mengsheng, Qi Tongwei felt confident that he had won this round.

"Why are you being so polite with me?" Zhao Mengsheng said with a smile. "You're like my own nephew. Your business is my business. Don't worry."

Chatting and laughing all the way, the plane landed smoothly at Kyoto Airport a few hours later.

Zhao Mengsheng had already arranged a car, and after the group got in, they drove towards the Army General Hospital.

As he passed by Chang'an Avenue, Qi Tongwei looked out the window at the ornamental columns, raised his right hand, and saluted them.

We pay homage to our great nation, to the hardships we have endured since our rebirth, and to the future.

Looking at Qi Tongwei in his military uniform, Pei Xiaotong was fascinated. "Tongwei, you're so handsome."

"Xiaotong, you are very beautiful." Qi Tongwei nodded.

Perhaps this is what mutual affection is.

They arrived at the Army General Hospital quickly, where Zhao Mengsheng had made all the necessary arrangements in advance.

The ward is a single room, spacious and bright, with complete facilities.

The conditions there are much better than those at the People's Hospital of Northern Xinjiang Province.

After settling everything in, Wu Shuang, Gao Fangfang, and the others left first.

Liu Lan, the hospital's vice president, put on her white coat and said, "Tongwei, you should rest well. Your Grandma Wu is going to make you something delicious. It'll be ready in a little while."

"Aunt Liu, it's too much trouble for you and Grandma Wu. There's a cafeteria at the hospital; I can just grab something to eat." Qi Tongwei really didn't want to trouble anyone.

He only shared good news with his family and never told them bad news; he definitely couldn't tell his parents about his injury and hospitalization.

"Tongwei, nothing in the cafeteria is as clean and delicious as home-cooked food." Liu Lan waved her hand. "You're weak, you need to eat something nutritious. As long as you're in the hospital, I'll make you three meals a day."

Qi Tongwei couldn't very well refuse, so he said, "Thank you."

Zhao Mengsheng had official business to attend to. "Tongwei, I have something to take care of first. I'll come see you another day."

Xiaotong, Tongwei is in your care now. Take good care of him.

"Uncle Zhao, don't worry, I will definitely take good care of Tongwei." Pei Xiaotong was looking forward to the end of the journey so that she could have a private conversation with Qi Tongwei.

Sure enough, one by one, everyone else left.

Only Qi Tongwei and Pei Xiaotong remained in the ward.
