Chapter 171 - 169 Candid
"Brother Lin, your father died while looking for a Crystal Core for Sister Pan’er. Are you aware of this? Don’t harbor any resentment towards your sister,"
the Base Commander personally met with the two children and clarified this face to face.
"It’s not her fault, uncle. My uncle told me that he would one day sacrifice himself and told me to prepare for it, to learn more skills so I could live independently later on. Uncle said he sacrificed himself for the people of the base, not just one person. When a natural disaster strikes, each of us might die. Don’t blame anyone; no one wants to die, but some things must be done by someone."
Qian Sisi was sharp-witted and knew that the Base Commander was asking her, not Wang Lin.
"In the orphanage, there are both elderly and children; they all had relatives, parents, children, but ended up all alone. Who should they blame? Really, blaming anyone is futile. Don’t worry, I understand the situation. My dad died saving my uncle, and my uncle died trying to save Sister Pan’er. Sister Pan’er then provided the base and the orphanage with lots of medicine, food, and supplies to help more people survive. Sacrifices must have value."
Qian Sisi, a year older than Wang Lin, had actually understood these matters for a long time now.
Li Pan sighed, feeling a bittersweet pain in her heart.
The Base Commander patted her head, "It’s good that you understand. Sister Pan’er brought you back here to nurture you properly. The orphanage isn’t as good as this place. The farm has resources for individual development. Look at this boy, he’s my nephew, his dad was my cousin. He wasn’t raised by the Wang Family but was brought here hoping he could benefit from this place. Do you understand?"
"I understand."
Although Qian Sisi was saddened by the death of her uncle, she had lost too many relatives and was already accustomed to it.
