Hearing this na, Henry Sullivan subconsciously froze for a mont.
Last night she texted him: "I’m starting a new journey in life, won’t you congratulate ?"
When he saw it, it was already midnight, and not wanting to disturb her rest, he didn’t reply.
This morning, he had forgotten about it completely, only to find she had actually co here.
"I’ll be right down," he said as he hung up the phone and went downstairs to the entrance of the barracks.
She was wearing a long polka dot dress. After a year, her hair had grown longer and she looked much slimr than before.
In fact, he was almost unable to recall her appearance.
He thought if they were to et unexpectedly in a crowd, he might not recognize her.
But now, he realized that even if she were lost in a crowd, he would still recognize her.
With a pursed lip smile, she waved at him. Surprised, he approached and asked, "How did you get here?"
"I texted you yesterday, but you didn’t reply. If you had, I would have told you then," she answered.
Henry looked at her: "I was busy until late last night, worried about disturbing your rest. Are you here for a vacation?"
Isla Linton pressed her lips together and shook her head: "No, I’m here for work. All the resus I sent were for this city.
I succeeded in securing a job this morning and I start work in two days.
I wanted to make sure I saw you before then."
Henry looked embarrassed for a mont: "Then, congratulations to you."
"Henry, a re verbal congratulations isn’t enough, you should treat to a al."
She seed much more outgoing than she had been a year ago.
Henry thought for a while: "Then I need to ask for leave; discipline in the military is very strict."
"Okay, I’ll wait for you."
Henry usually almost never takes breaks or vacations, so it was relatively easy for him to ask for leave.
Coming out of the barracks later, he had specifically changed into civilian clothes.
He took her for Sichuan cuisine, and she had a good appetite, eating quite a lot.
After the al, as he was paying, she smiled and said, "Henry, give your bank account number."
"Account number?"
"I need to repay you. I’ll be able to start drawing a salary from next month.
I’ll hand over half of my salary to you every month."
Henry Sullivan shook his head with a smile: "No need, there’s no rush to repay.
First earn money and take good care of yourself and your family.
When you have spare money, then you can think of repaynt."
"What if I never have spare money?"
"Then there’s no need to repay," he said as he got up and walked towards the door, Isla Linton followed, "Henry, still give it to ."
Henry didn’t say a word.
Suddenly, Isla Linton grabbed his arm, "Henry, I always need a reason to contact you proactively, please give it to ."
Henry looked at her, stunned for a mont— a reason to contact him proactively?
Looking at her smiling radiantly, Henry suddenly felt his heart flutter.
She released his arm and spread her hand in front of her: "Please, Henry."
Henry Sullivan pursed his lips in a smile and took a card out of his wallet to give to her.
She quickly noted down the number on a piece of paper and then handed it back to him: "I will definitely keep my promise."
"I’m not in a hurry for money, so just take your ti repaying, even if it takes a lifeti."
Just as ambiguous as her recent remarks, Henry’s words were equally ambiguous.
For two young hearts at this mont, this is the spark of love, utterly uncontrollable.
