"Lin Qingping." He leaned down and touched her forehead.

Her breath was instantly filled with his scent, but after he called her name, he didn't speak for a long time.

I don’t know if he is brewing something or just doesn’t know how to say it.

After a long while, he lowered his voice and said, "I've been injured. I know what it feels like to be in so much pain that your face turns pale and you sweat all over. I thought that was something that we soldiers had to endure, something that men had to endure. I never thought that one day you would endure such pain..."

His voice got smaller and smaller as he spoke, and by the end, it seemed as if something was stuck in his throat, choking and choking...

"If I had known..." He only said two words, and swallowed the rest of the words. There is no such thing as knowing it earlier in the world, and besides, Palm Pearl has already been born. To say that he had known it earlier...

He took a deep breath, "Lin Qingping, I feel so guilty. This is the first time I'm at a loss, but there's nothing I can do... That's why I said it's better to have a son. If you have a son, he won't have to go through so much hardship in the future. Lin Qingping, being a woman has it much harder than being a man."

Lin Qingping lay stiffly on the bed, his brain stopped working.

So, this is what he meant when he said it’s better to have a son?

"Do you think life is harder for women than for men?" She asked in a daze.

"Yes." Gu Juncheng gently stroked the back of her hand. "Lin Qingping, you have taken on too much by being with me. I just need to do my own thing and be a good soldier. You have played all other roles behind me, wife, mother, sister, daughter. At the same time, you are also creating your own career. Now, you have to bear the pain of childbirth. Lin Qingping, I admire you and respect you very much. You are the real pillar of our family."

Lin Qingping smiled stiffly. These words sounded strange to her.

"But don't I know how hard it is to be the pillar of the family? You've already had it so hard, I can't imagine that being the palm bead will have to have it so hard in the future, how can that be possible?"

The matter came to an end with Gu Juncheng's question.

Lin Qingping looked at the ceiling of the ward and said word by word, "Gu Juncheng, I work so hard and suffer so much just so that Zhangzhu won't have to suffer so much in the future."

"Gu Juncheng, don't say things like "I knew it earlier" anymore, and don't tell Zhangzhu about how much she went through for her mother. Whether it was hard work or pain, it was our own choice. Don't put this pressure on Zhangzhu. Zhangzhu didn't have the power to choose when she came to this world."

She hopes that her little girl can grow up carefree in a stress-free environment.

What Lin Qingping didn't expect was that Gu Juncheng stayed with her in the hospital until she was discharged.

She originally thought that with such a workaholic like him and such a job, he would probably go back to the island the next day.

As a result, he said that it was approved by his leader and he also had vacation time. If not now, when?

So, he did everything himself in the hospital. Gu Youlian was shocked and felt that he was not only doing nothing here, but was also a hindrance.

"I think I might as well go back to the capital." Gu Youlian said with a smile when she came into the ward one morning and saw Gu Juncheng holding Lin Qingping's head and helping her brush her teeth.

Lin Qingping was embarrassed by the laughter, "No, what will happen to the palm bead if you leave?"

That’s right, Gu Juncheng did everything by himself except holding the pearl. For some reason, she would cry as soon as it came into his hands.
