Taking root in the desolate and lonely border post, Wen Nian, a girl from Jiangnan, went to the border to work as a medical nurse and back-office staff. When she first arrived, she met Qi Yan, a sharp-edged special forces member of the outpost.
Qi Yan has been on the front line of anti-drugs all year round. He is cold and distant, but he lowers all guard against the gentle and attentive Wen Nian. During the boring and arduous days of guarding the border, the two cuddled up to each other for warmth. Wen Nian always left a lamp and a hot meal for Qi Yan, who came home late from a mission, and took good care of her large and small wounds; Qi Yan silently protected Wen Nian, took on all the heavy work, and tolerated all her small wishes. They planted daisies in the desert courtyard and agreed to go to a small southern town together when their service period was over, away from the wind, sand and smoke, and stay together in peace and quiet.
In the outpost, accompanied by comrades, the days are stable and gentle, and the time spent together day and night is ordinary and precious. However, undercurrents are surging at the border, and criminals are waiting for opportunities to cross the border and cause chaos. A sudden armed raid broke the peace. In order to protect the residents and the homeland defense line, Qi Yan rushed to the front line without hesitation to stop the enemy. Worried, Wen Nian carried a first aid kit and rushed to the battlefield for rescue.
The two people who had made an appointment to spend the rest of their lives together chose to shoulder the heavy responsibility of guarding the border together. They used their flesh and blood to build a strong border defense line and protect the peace of thousands of miles of rivers and mountains and thousands of families, but they failed to go to the promised life of seclusion.
We stayed together day and night in the past, and now we live and die together. The land they had protected together eventually became their eternal destination. I have been guarding the border with my close friends all my life, and served my country with sincerity. I only regret that I could not live out the years I promised.
Intention: They had promised the most gentle rest of their lives: living in seclusion in the south, where the years would be dull, daisies would always bloom, and fireworks would be common. But in the current national crisis and border danger, the two resolutely gave up their personal safety, died on the job, and died on the land. The purpose of the full text is that heroes are never careless, but they choose to sacrifice themselves to protect the mountains and rivers despite knowing that the world is worthwhile and that the rest of their lives can be expected.
