He carried the basin of water outside, walked to the well, and gently rinsed out the clothes. Feeling the breeze outside, he didn't leave the clothes out but brought the wet garments back into the room.

Once he had taken care of everything, he lay down on the bed, signaling to the guard to apply medicine to his wounds.

The guard stepped forward and carefully sprinkled the powder onto the wounds. After finishing, he was about to remind Mu Lianshen to lie on his stomach while sleeping but saw that Mu Lianshen had already closed his eyes.

Was he asleep? Or had he fainted?

The guard didn't dare disturb him, so he lay down on the other side of the bed with half-closed eyes. He didn't want to sleep too deeply, fearing that Mu Lianshen might develop a fever in the middle of the night.

Meanwhile, in the space, Fu Xiao was still reading the diary.

The middle sections detailed Mu Lianshen and Fu Jingxiu's acquaintance and love story. They first met during a war, where Fu Jingxiu saved the injured Mu Lianshen on the battlefield.

At that time, Mu Lianshen was very arrogant and fierce, not at all like a soldier. He seemed more like a small-time gangster.

Initially, Fu Jingxiu didn't think much of him. But later, during another battle, he risked his own safety to save many lives. That was when she began to see him in a different light.

Once, during a flood relief effort, the two of them were trapped in the water while trying to save an old man. Mu Lianshen kept pushing her with a wooden plank while he himself stayed in the water for an entire night.

After this ordeal, both of them had different feelings for each other. They went through many experiences together. Mu Lianshen, after falling in love with her, took a long time to win her over. They fell in love, she introduced him to her family, and they got married.

The diary from this period was filled with sweetness and affection. Fu Jingxiu wrote:

She met a boy like this. In front of her, he seemed to have restrained all his tempers. His arrogance and pride disappeared, leaving only a heart full of love. His eyes when he looked at her were always bright and gentle.

The proud and noble youth knelt down for a long time, begging her parents to approve of their relationship. He gave her all his affection and special attention. Such a boy is hard not to fall for.

They loved each other...

At their wedding, he vowed with loving words to reduce the dangerous tasks and spend his life loving her...

She wanted to tell him she understood him very well. She loved the passionate, selfless youth. He seemed to stand tall and straight, unbending and undefeated, always full of the soldier's vigor and loyalty.

As a military wife, she supported him. But she was happy about his promise because she loved him and naturally didn't want him to get hurt.

Later, they had a child. He was overjoyed and took a long leave to be with her. She felt even more reassured.

They both looked forward to the arrival of this new life.

But one day...

He looked at her with a guilty expression, saying he needed to go out. For some reason, she wanted to hold him back stubbornly. It felt like if he left this time, they might never see each other again.

But she couldn't do that; after all, it was his duty. She told herself she was just overly emotional due to pregnancy.

With a smile on her face, she watched him leave.
