Having heard the story, Ou Lan cried her eyes out.
She deeply respected the martyrs who understood the greater good and dared to sacrifice themselves for the nation.
She was even more moved by the unwavering loyalty and love between Gong Lie and Chu Yajie.
She felt even more compassion for Zhan Lingtao, who was born without parents.
Zhan Moxiao had always known how kind his girl was, and seeing her cry pained him, so he pulled her into his embrace.
He said, "Before Lingtao was born, Yajie's fate was already sealed. She ignored the doctors' advice, insisting on having Gong Lie's child. During the later stages of her pregnancy, her condition was very poor; the doctors advised her to terminate the pregnancy to save her life, but she refused."
Ou Lan lifted her tearful eyes and asked, "Are you saying that Chu Yajie traded her life for Xiao Tuo's life?"
