Chapter 432 - Purge
“Boss, how are you? Hurry up and listen to the doctor to get into the ambulance!” Xiao Bo quickly ran over to persuade him. Blood was still flowing out of the wound on his chest with the triangular army knife, and his lips were turning paler and paler.
“This girl is already dead. Boss, leave her to them. Otherwise, her corpse will rot!” another soldier quickly advised him.
The sky slowly darkened, and lightning flashed and thunder rumbled. A heavy rain fell on his face, making him feel a little awake.
Gu Qian nodded like a zombie and waved his hand. He said softly, “Let’s go. Let’s go. It’s time to leave!”
“Boss, what did you say?” Xiao Bo did not hear him clearly and placed her ear to his mouth.
“Send me to the hospital. Take her away too!” Gu Qian lowered his eyes and said softly.
“Okay!” Xiao Bo wiped the rain off his face and nodded.
At this point, tears seemed to flash in Gu Qian’s eyes.
He continued, “After that night, they cremated my girlfriend. I stayed in the hospital for a month before my wounds healed, but this scar will forever remain!”
Chen Chen’s heart was heavy. He did not expect such a knife mark to have such a story behind it. He only saw Gu Qian’s neatness as a mercenary, but he did not know that he even wanted ordinary family ties.
“And then you returned to the country?” Chen Chen asked softly.
“Yes, after I was discharged, I went back with Xiao Bo and the others to submit the mission. Then, I resigned!”
Gu Qian sighed and replied, “Other than this, I haven’t done anything else. I never thought of doing anything else in the past. I feel that I was born a killer. No one is more suitable to kill than me. Killing is my mission! But ever since I met my girlfriend, I don’t want to live that kind of life again!”
“Later, I returned to the country. In the beginning, I didn’t know what to do, but every year, I would go to my girlfriend’s grave on the day we met and the day she passed away. I also promised to go every year in the future. To make it easier to go, I stayed in the country. My girlfriend’s grave is in the suburbs,” Gu Qian said calmly, as if he was talking about someone else’s story.

Chen Chen did not know what to say. This man’s experience was too heavy. His experience, his bearing, and his thoughts might not be something a young master like him, who had lived a smooth life since he was young, could understand. “But do you know? I don’t plan to go this year,” Gu Qian smiled and said to him.
“Ah, why?” Chen Chen looked at him in confusion.
“Because I don’t want to live in the pain of the past anymore. I want to let myself go. I think if my girlfriend was alive, she wouldn’t want to see me in so much pain now, right? I’ll still see her in the future, but I won’t deliberately choose a date,” Gu Qian pursed his lips and said calmly.
Then, Gu Qian looked up and glanced at Chen Chen meaningfully before continuing, “To be honest, after returning to the country, I felt a lot of warmth. It made me realize that I don’t have to live like an isolated island at all. I can try to accept new things. New people, don’t you think?”
Chen Chen nodded, not understanding.
Gu Qian smiled and said, “Alright, recuperate well. I’ll come see you often. If you’re bored, call me!” Chen Chen replied, “Alright, thank you!”
Gu Qian turned around and left, but Chen Chen felt mixed emotions.
He was very surprised to know a friend with such a legendary background. He really wanted to explore everything about Gu Qian and felt that he was mysterious and heavy.
Especially the gaze Gu Qian gave him, it made him feel transparent and sincere. This person had a feeling of being honest after experiencing the world.
Chen Chen was still immersed in his memories of Gu Qian’s legend when Bai Ran’s voice came from beside him. “You’ve been talking for so long. What is this? What does this have to do with him liking you?”
Chen Chen instantly returned to his senses. It seemed like Bai Ran’s eyes were no longer as hard as when he first saw her. It seemed like she was also infected by Gu Qian’s story.
Chen Chen quickly replied, “No, I’m not done…”
“Is that so? Don’t try to change the topic. These things have nothing to do with Sister Wan. You don’t have to tell me.” Although Bai Ran’s eyes softened, she still looked at Chen Chen suspiciously.
