Sixty years old with the army, the heirless boss loves his fertile wife

Chapter 305 The Finale

Over the course of ten years, the entire island and surrounding waters have undergone a complete transformation. If it weren't for the protection of the defensive sphere, anyone who gets close would be shocked by what they see.

When the country reopened its doors, and all the great powers were waiting to carve up this fertile cake, they realized just how naive their ideas had been.

This country, which was once bullied at will by foreign powers, developed at lightning speed during the ten years of its isolation, becoming an entity that the world dared not look directly at or resist.

Whether it's a strong national defense or terrifying weapons development, these are things that arrogant powers cannot resist.

Even their long-held notion of poverty and backwardness was shattered.

Having enough to eat and wear is no longer a concern. The land is magnificent and thriving. Various high-tech transportation vehicles shuttle back and forth on the streets, delivering supplies from all over the country to where they are needed in an orderly manner.

People's faces are filled with enthusiasm for life, and even if there are occasional setbacks, they will not affect the overall situation.

The breathtaking scenes, broadcast live during the military parade, allowed the world to witness just how incredible this exercise, which opened the country's doors to the world, truly was.

Tang Qiyue sat in the helicopter, stepping out of the island for the first time. Looking at this scene, she turned to ask Zhan Zeye beside her.

"What did you see at the end of the spacetime rift?"

Tang Qiyue held back this question for ten years before finally asking it.

Zhan Zeye simply held her hand and whispered in her ear, "I saw a broken world, and a woman on the verge of breaking. She used all the energy of that broken world to create a myth!"

He didn't hide it from Tang Qiyue, after all, it's not good to keep some things bottled up inside.

Tang Qiyue thought those memories were illusions, but when Zhan Zeye revealed them, she realized that regaining her memories was real.

"This is just the beginning!"

Ten years is far from the result she wants.

After all, the memories she saw were not just fragmented.

At first, she thought she had seen a ray of light while clearing land and rushed towards it, and then she was reborn after traveling through time. She didn't know that it was because of her body's self-protection that it only showed her the memories of that time period.

In reality, she did not die during the land reclamation in the post-apocalyptic world. In fact, the beam of light she saw during the land reclamation was the appearance of a spacetime rift, and she saw Zhan Zeye and the others.

She helped Zhan Zeye survive, and then threw him back.

After the spacetime rift disappeared, she continued to live in the post-apocalyptic world, slowly growing from a recruit into a super soldier, and then working hard step by step to climb to the center of power.

I thought that by standing on high ground, I could understand the truth of the apocalypse, end it, and usher in a new era, but I discovered that the truth of the apocalypse was so cruel.

Humanity in this apocalyptic world has reached its end.

The entire planet could no longer be restored, and humanity was ultimately destroyed by its own technology. The truth she witnessed in her lifetime was the real apocalypse.

But she was not reconciled.

All she ever wanted to do was protect the world she lived in, so why was it so difficult?

Having exhausted the last resources of the apocalypse, she reopened the spacetime rift, compiling all the technology and civilization of the apocalypse into a system and entrusting it to herself in another world.

She didn't want humanity to perish in its pursuit of rapid development; she wanted to see if the world she had created could surpass the post-apocalyptic world.

This is the truth behind Tang Qiyue's transmigration and rebirth.

As the spacetime rift closed, she completely vanished into the river of time along with the apocalyptic world.

Tang Qiyue's memories returned, but she wasn't too sad.

Because those memories had been stripped of their emotional elements, they were no different from what Zhan Zeye saw in the time rift. She felt sad and resentful, but not desperate.

That's why Tang Qiyue was so calm when the two of them talked about these things ten years later.

It's only been ten years; she has many more decades to work hard.

In the first decade, the island's impact on the country was enough to satisfy Tang Qiyue.

In the second decade, the awe-inspiring impact the island had on the world marked the completion of Tang Qiyue's phased goals.

In its third decade, the island has long since transcended its status as an island; it has lived up to its reputation as a city of the future, becoming one of the most incredible cities in the world, achieving groundbreaking results in both technology and other fields.

In the fourth decade, the island's strong rise has made the country even stronger. The lost territories have been recovered, and more Chinese people are proud to live in this country.

In her fifth decade, Tang Qiyue announced her retirement and left the island together with Zhan Zeye, who was also retiring.

By this time, the island had long since become the center of the world, a top-tier presence in various fields.

"We wanted to visit the children, but they were all busy with their careers and ignored us. So we had to let our daughter accompany us out for a walk!"

Tang Qiyue and Zhan Zeye stood hand in hand at the entrance of the old house.

Ten years ago, Zhan's mother passed away peacefully, leaving this world with a smile.

After discussing it with Zhan Zeye, Tang Qiyue decided to send the old woman back to her hometown for burial, which was also Zhan's mother's last wish.

Although no one lives here, the old house has always been taken care of, and because it is the former residence of Tang Qiyue and Zhan Zeye, it has become a tourist attraction.

Nothing evokes a more complex feeling than having to buy a ticket to hear a guide tell their stories when you return to your own home.

Zhan Zeye was also quite helpless.

Because he and Tang Qiyue had taken gene-enhancing drugs, even though they were over eighty years old, they still looked like they were in their forties or fifties.

If they hadn't insisted on retiring, the islanders probably wouldn't have let them rest.

They really wanted to visit their three sons, who were no longer young, but each one was harder to see than the last. Fortunately, all three of them got married and had children in their forties.

The youngest granddaughter is now accompanying the two as they stroll around the old house.

"Grandpa and Grandma, now that we're revisiting this place, are there any memories you'd like to reminisce about?"

The little granddaughter playfully linked arms with Tang Qiyue, standing among the tourists listening to the guide tell stories about her grandparents, and couldn't help but ask a question in a low voice out of curiosity.

Tang Qiyue was in a good mood and happy to share with her granddaughter.

"I don't know anything about what the tour guide said. When I got married, I was carrying a rooster out of the car and saw your great-aunt blocking the door with a fierce look on her face. I thought to myself, if your great-aunt were to make a move, should I throw the rooster down and fight her, or should I protect the rooster that represents your grandfather?"

Zhan Zeye, standing nearby, broke out in a cold sweat as he listened to Tang Qiyue's teasing words.

This rooster wedding ceremony is probably a regret he can never undo in his life.

—The End
That's all for this book.

Thank you to all the lovely ladies who have been with us all this way!

When I started writing this book, my baby was only three months along. I originally wanted to write a story about raising a child, but I found that the effects of pregnancy hormones on me were too severe, causing the plot to deviate significantly.

I'll be meeting the little one in a month, but my body is too tired, so I have to finish this in a hurry.

I can only start the next book after I finish my postpartum confinement!
