Chapter 2373 Another Ye Lingtian
"But my expectations for you never require you to live a life of so success and envy, but I just hope that you can live with your true heart. I also hope that you can gradually become a real strong man in more storms and experiences, without fear of any wind and rain or challenges, so there is no better environment than the army. Although I have never been to the army for a day and have never been exposed to that kind of life, your father and grandpa are all real iron-blooded soldiers. Compared with the so-called white-collar elites, I hope you can inherit their qualities and become people like them."
"And, this is not just my expectation of you, but more of your father's hope or request." When Li Yuxin said this, her heart trembled involuntarily, and the memory seemed to be pulled back many years ago. At that time, Ye Kang had just been born and was just a small baby. However, Ye Lingtian always looked at him with pride and gentle face. From that time, even earlier, he had already said that he hoped that his son would be a man of uprightness when he grew up, and hoped that he could join the army and serve the country.
When Ye Kang heard his mother mention his father, his expression became serious. Even though he had been absent from his growth, his father always had an irreplaceable position in his mind.
"The most proudest identity and experience of your father in his life was when he was a soldier. For him, all his growth and ability originated from that time. That was the years he remembered his life, including all his abilities, his sense of responsibility and loyalty, which were left to him by the years of the army. The ups and downs and storms he experienced in this life were not something you can imagine. If it weren't for the experience of that time, he would not have been able to live it smoothly."
"You should be able to understand from your learning experience over the years that true knowledge, as long as you are willing to learn, can be completely free from the environment. Whether you are not in school or not, Tsinghua University or Peking University will not delay you from absorbing more things. Even when you arrive in the army, it is a broader world, and you can learn more about what you want to know. Including when you choose Tsinghua University, there is indeed the best environment there, but what you want to learn more about military-type things. If you really don't have any interest in this aspect, then I will definitely not force you, but your answer has proved that you are the son of your father, with blood connected, and his influence on you is in the bones. This is something I can't stop even if I want to stop it."
Li Yuxin smiled and said, feeling indescribable in her heart. On the surface, Ye Lingtian had left and had no news for so many years, but his influence on his children has long been deeply imprinted in his bones and blood. The calmness that Ye Kang showed at critical moments was completely another Ye Lingtian. From another perspective, he was always by his side.
"If you are thinking about this, I would also think that life in the army will be more suitable for you and will also let you know more about what you want to know."
"Of course, if it's just for training you to test you, I'm reluctant to send you to the army. Especially when your father asked me, I didn't agree with it in my heart. I didn't understand it before, and I was even more reluctant, because you and Shiyi are my children, and they are the flesh of the mother's heart. I can exchange everything about me, including my life, for your peace and healthy growth. After all, no mother is willing to endure hardships for her children. At that time, I thought that you would grow up smoothly with Shiyi, and then you would develop a new foundation or follow your father to make his career bigger and stronger..."
Li Yuxin paused at this point and did not say the words "The Veteran Group". Even though so many years have passed, some things are still unwilling to mention again.
"But after your father left, I have experienced many things over the years. I gradually realized that the road of life is inevitable. Every parent can accompany and protect their children. There is only one journey of time. You need to walk on more roads and bumps in the future. This is something that no one can replace you. So I gradually began to feel that more experience when I was young may allow you to be more calm and capable of controlling your life when facing your future life."
From Chen Junliang's betrayal back then, Li Yuxin realized that there were too many hidden risks in this world. The only thing she could do was to do her best to protect her young children. Now Ye Kang has grown up and he has to walk step by step in the future. She cannot always put her children under her wings, so she must force him to grow and become strong in order to protect himself and his sister. In this regard, the army is the best choice.
"If your father had not entered the army back then, of course, with his talent and ability, I believe he could still work hard to make a fortune, but the growth he had obtained was something that nowhere in society could be obtained. Your father's wish is to hope that his son can be a hero who stands tall like him in the future, including your grandfather's wish. They are all real iron-blooded soldiers, and they can contribute everything to their mission, the people and the country at any time in their lifetime."
"I didn't understand before, and even felt that living with such people would have to bear too much danger and pain. But later I realized that everyone has their own people who should protect them at all costs and fulfill their mission. Only when a person becomes stronger can he protect others and better protect himself and fulfill his mission."
"Kang Kang, my idea of you may not be as grand as your father, but I also hope that you can become stronger. Your father has not come back, you are the man in the family, you have sisters and younger brothers, and there are many responsibilities that you need to bear in the future, so you must be strong in order to better protect them. So, I thought about it for a long time, and finally decided to support your father's idea. You must know that the decisions he has made over the years are almost nothing wrong. As a wife, I will always support his idea. As a mother, I hope to see my son become the pride of my family."
