Chapter 2079 - Unable To Let Go

When she returned home, she sat in the big chair and looked at the empty chair opposite her. She vaguely returned to the past. When she saw the kind-looking old man in the old military uniform looking at her kindly, Ye Jian smiled.

After returning home, she peeled off the hardest outer shell that could withstand wind and rain, making the smile that lingered on the corner of her lips appear so soft. “Grandpa, are you okay? I don’t know when I’ll be back again.

“I have good news for you. I’ve been waiting for Ye Zhifan to fall. I’ve waited two lifetimes for this family to be dealt with. Grandpa, I’m really happy.”

Ye Jian, who had a soft smile on her face, seemed to have returned to the time when Uncle Gen was still alive. She spoke slowly, carefully, and softly about Principal Chen and Xia Jinyuan.

“I haven’t told you why I suddenly became sensible in the second year of middle school. I’ve always wanted to tell you, but I couldn’t.

“You said that I became sensible. You said that I finally understood. Grandpa, you don’t know why I became sensible. It’s all because I learned a cruel lesson in my previous life and was reborn with hatred.

“In my previous life, I didn’t listen to you and rejected your help. In the end, I was forced by Ye Ying to die without any dignity.

“I never thought I’d be able to live again. In this life, I was reborn with hatred. The only thing I wanted to do was take revenge. Other than that, I had no other thoughts. Grandpa, you were the one who pointed out a path for me. You told me that in this life, besides taking revenge, there was another way to live that would make my enemies hate it even more.

“I listened to your arrangements and your words. I endured Ye Zhifan, who caused me to be alone in my previous life. I endured my hatred and silently put down the scissors and kitchen knife I picked up.

“With your words, the path you pointed out allowed me to walk out of my hatred. I learned that only by becoming stronger can I stand on my own feet and complete what I didn’t complete in my previous life.

“When I couldn’t take it anymore, I thought about your words. When I couldn’t take it anymore, I ran, trained, and vented. I endured it and got through it again.

“I’m so lucky to have met you, Principal Chen, Commander Liu, and Commissar Yan in this life. I even met the love of my life, Captain Xia, who’s also my comrade. Because of all of you, I feel happy no matter how bitter and tired I am.

“Grandpa, I don’t think I’ll be back soon after this. Although my home is in the village, I’ve suffered too much disdain in my previous life. When facing my neighbors in this life, even though they’re very kind to me now, I can’t help but think of their attitudes toward me in my previous life.

“I know it’s wrong, but Grandpa, I can’t hold it back any longer. There are some people and some things that I can’t get over no matter how hard I try.

“I’ll remember the people who helped me for both lifetimes. However, I can’t let go of those who bullied and humiliated me in this life. I can feel the warmth and coldness vividly. In my previous life, I was framed by Ye Ying and abandoned in the village. Grandpa, every time I return to the village, I can’t help but think of the past…”
