Chapter 2619: Turning Around Is a Lifetime
General Shi Mu was about to be pissed off by Cheng Huaijin's words.
But, think about it.
Some people, once you miss them, you miss them.
Sometimes, if you hesitate or turn around, you will never get them for the rest of your life.
Shi Mu fully experienced this uncomfortable feeling at this moment.
Cheng Huaijin looked at General Shi Mu with a gloomy face and said sincerely: "Actually, I am quite grateful to you. Your appearance made me feel nervous, made me understand my heart thoroughly, and made me know that I must have her. So, I took that step bravely. After taking that step, I realized that in fact, many things were overthinking. Life is only a few decades long. If you meet someone you like, you must grab it. Otherwise, a momentary miss is a lifetime miss. So, I hope that General Shi Mu, when you want to take a girl away in the future, don't hesitate, after all, you are not young anymore."
General Shi Mu glanced at Cheng Huaijin lightly and said nothing more.
He took the box that he regarded as a treasure, stood up, and prepared to leave.
When he reached the door, he turned back to the table and put the box in front of Cheng Huaijin: "Since you are the only one who belongs to her, then keep these things for her! Let's go!"
After saying that, General Shi Mu left without looking back.
When he got downstairs and saw Gu Yingxue, he just nodded and left.
Gu Yingxue looked at Cheng Huaijin holding the box down, with a puzzled look on her face.
Cheng Huaijin handed the things to Gu Yingxue and smiled: "He asked me to keep it. It's good this way. There is no trace. Slowly, all thoughts will disappear. Empty your heart and wait for others to move in cleanly. Respect yourself and others."
Gu Yingxue was stunned and took the box.
She didn't think so much, because most of the things in it belonged to the original owner, and it didn't matter whether she accepted it or not.
In the days before being found by Gu Qingyuan, she had fulfilled the original owner's wish, so she didn't take anything away at the beginning.
Since Shi Mu had kept all the original owner's things and sent them to her, it was also a kind of fate!
Gu Yingxue put away the box solemnly.
Then Cheng Huaijin sent Gu Yingxue home.
The two were now engaged by the emperor, but they had never gone shopping alone before. Now that they had the chance, neither of them expected to go home separately.
…
After the affairs of various countries were settled, it was already the end of July.
The envoys of the delegation were ready to leave. Before leaving, the emperor hosted a banquet for everyone.
Part of the Nanlin delegation had already gone back, led by General Mu to transport Long Zhuer's body back, while Lord Jiang and several guards stayed to hand over the follow-up matters.
Similarly, Ayin also stayed. Gu Xin had completely cleared her of the toxins in her body. She was recuperating and would return with Lord Jiang and the others.
On July 29, the envoys of various countries set out to leave Beijing.
This time, the princes and princesses of the West also went back with them, and Cheng Huaijin also went back. He was going back to prepare for the wedding, and would come to the capital at the end of the year, to marry Gu Xin at the beginning of next year, and to marry Gu Yingxue back to Liusha in February.
His time was still quite tight.
The Gu family was also preparing a dowry for Gu Yingxue. If she married too far away, it would be difficult to prepare the farmhouse and shops.
