"Instructor Hutchinson, let’s bargain for a favor."
"Go ahead."
"Carry me down the mountain." Flossie Wright narrowed her eyes.
A rather shameless request.
But, coming from Flossie Wright’s mouth, it was enough to astonish someone.
With a look of surprise, Glenn Hutchinson’s gaze lifted, he paused, tilting his head slightly, and stared into Flossie Wright’s eyes.
Glenn Hutchinson spat out these words.
Since it was a "bargain," there had to be "chips" at stake.
He was quite curious to see what kind of "chips" Flossie Wright held in her hand.
"I’ll return the military knife to you."
With a flip of her hand, Flossie Wright presented the military knife to Glenn Hutchinson.
This was something she had already returned to Glenn Hutchinson.
However, with her skills, hiding something from Glenn Hutchinson wasn’t difficult.
In front of Glenn Hutchinson, there were things she wasn’t great at, but there were definitely things she excelled at as well.
Glenn Hutchinson appeared somewhat speechless.
It was clear —
That was just a random excuse from Flossie Wright.
The very second before she approached, Glenn Hutchinson had realized the knife was still with him, yet she managed to pick it up on a whim to toss an excuse his way.
After all, no matter the excuse, he would agree to it.
Although he felt resigned inside, he also indulged her without question.
"Come on up."
Glenn Hutchinson hence agreed.
Hearing his words, Flossie Wright retracted her hand holding the military knife, and the next moment, that intact knife settled at Glenn Hutchinson’s waist.
Anything related to a knife, she could handle with a cool, impressive flair.
Glenn Hutchinson was right in front of her, Flossie Wright reached out to hug his shoulders, then leaned onto his back.
The shoulders were broad and solid, offering warmth that belonged to him even in the icy weather.
The cold wind hit her face head-on, stinging Flossie Wright’s cheeks, so she slightly lowered her head to dodge the biting chill.
But as she lowered her head, her gaze caught the curve of Glenn Hutchinson’s jaw and the wheat color of his skin on the neck, causing her eyes to pause for a moment.
Her eyes seemed a bit hazy.
As far as she remembered, she had never been carried on someone’s back before.
The feeling —
Was quite nice.
Flossie Wright curved her lips into a small smile.
"Let’s go." Shifting his head to the side, Glenn Hutchinson glanced at Flossie Wright behind him and said as if to remind her.
Flossie Wright responded faintly.
Glenn Hutchinson quickened his pace.
The footsteps were light, Glenn Hutchinson walking along the mountain path with almost no sound except for the muffled tread on snow.
A breeze whisked past the ear.
Whooshing by, blowing against the ear, neck, and forehead, it brought an inexplicable chill.
After about a quarter of an hour, Flossie Wright felt somewhat tired and suddenly called out to Glenn Hutchinson.
"What’s up?"
Glenn Hutchinson stopped walking.
"Before we get there, wake me up." Flossie Wright released one hand and pulled the brim of her cap down a bit.
What she implied was that she was going to sleep for a while.
After all, there was nothing much to say to Glenn Hutchinson.
Too boring, might as well sleep for a bit.
After a thought, Glenn Hutchinson said in a deep voice.
Soon, he crouched down slightly, loosened his hold, and let Flossie Wright down.
Flossie Wright lifted her eyes, waiting for his next move.
Glenn Hutchinson faced her and began unbuttoning his coat.
