Flynn Hutchinson stood in the snowfield, snowflakes falling gently, landing on his head, strands of hair, and shoulders. His pretty little face was flushed red from the cold, yet his posture remained straight, like a tall, upright pine tree.
"Dad, can I join the army in the future?"
He slightly raised his head, his small stature looking steadily at Glenn Hutchinson without blinking.
His voice still had a hint of childishness, but his demeanor was gradually transforming, resembling that of a little grown-up.
Glenn Hutchinson’s furrowed brows slightly relaxed. He looked at the child who increasingly resembled that person, and after a moment, spoke in a low and gentle voice, "As long as you want to."
Responding resolutely, Flynn Reid pursed his lips and gave Glenn Hutchinson a proper salute.
Inside the ward.
Flossie Wright, holding some documents, leaned against the window, watching the two figures in the snowfield below.
One big, one small, both wearing camouflage uniforms, standing extremely upright.
The cold wind mixed with snowflakes swept in, yet Flossie Wright didn’t seem to feel the chill. Her gaze lingered on the two figures for a long time, only curving her lips slightly when the bigger one took the smaller one’s hand to leave.
The child...
Seemed quite nice.
This thought flashed through her mind, and Flossie Wright slightly furrowed her brows, realizing something, then erased that thought.
The next moment, Flossie Wright closed the window.
At the military district hospital, Flossie Wright’s days were even more comfortable and carefree than imagined.
Every day, Glenn Hutchinson would deliver meals to her on time. If he was really rushed, he would have someone else deliver them, and each meal was varied with no repetition throughout the entire week.
Initially, Flossie Wright felt a bit guilty; Glenn Hutchinson was hers, so whatever he did could be understood, but compared to the meals of others, she felt a serious sense of unjust treatment.
However, since Glenn Hutchinson unintentionally mentioned the new recruits’ selection meals, even the little bit of guilt Flossie Wright had utterly vanished.
While recovering, there was a justified reason to enjoy the food, so one should enjoy it thoroughly.
Otherwise—
Days of poor meal quality are yet to come!
In the following week, Flossie Wright took all the "special treatment" for granted, though she also practiced secretly beyond Glenn Hutchinson’s knowledge, holding the same sense of entitlement.
Anyway, Glenn Hutchinson had just returned and was quite busy, having no time to watch over her every day.
Little did she know, her small intention to practice more had long been seen by Glenn Hutchinson, who chose not to interfere.
After staying in the military district hospital for an entire week, Flossie Wright finally got discharged.
The wounds on her body had almost healed, and she wouldn’t have any problems as long as she didn’t excessively train. Additionally, from Glenn Hutchinson, she successfully received the "female instructor" assignment.
"They’ve been training for half a month, have you seen the upcoming training plans?"

Inside the office, as soon as Glenn Hutchinson entered and saw Flossie Wright writing at the desk, he asked.
Since picking her up in the morning, she had been staying in the office.
Flossie Wright propped her hand under her chin and signed her name at the end of the paper, answering Glenn Hutchinson’s question rather nonchalantly.
Glenn Hutchinson raised his eyebrows slightly, curious, as he walked over to her side.
Unexpectedly, Flossie Wright directly picked up the finished paper and handed it to Glenn Hutchinson with two fingers, saying casually, "A birthday gift."
Glenn Hutchinson’s birthday was in December, and it was already late December now. His birthday had passed during the time when Flossie Wright was repeatedly having high fevers in the hospital, so Flossie Wright didn’t mind giving him a belated birthday gift.
Curiosity mounting, Glenn Hutchinson squinted slightly and took the somewhat familiar paper from her.
Upon unfolding it, he saw five big words—
Marriage Registration Form.
When it was Flynn Reid’s birthday, Glenn Hutchinson had given her a marriage registration form, with his personal information and signature already filled in. Now, the half-filled form was completely filled.
Even though he had a steady heart, Glenn Hutchinson’s expression slightly changed upon seeing this marriage registration form.
"How long for approval?" Seeing the hint of joy on his face, Flossie Wright stood up and smiled at him while asking.
"Not long." Gripping the form slightly tighter, Glenn Hutchinson’s brows and eyes gently lifted.
"Then pick a good date," Flossie Wright put down the pen, picked up her camouflage hat, placing it on her head while saying, "Inform the family back home."
After giving the instructions, Flossie Wright turned and walked away.
Glenn Hutchinson reached out his hand, wrapped it around her waist, and pulled her into his embrace.
"Where are you going?" Raising an eyebrow at her, Glenn Hutchinson asked.
Flossie Wright looked at him, peeled off his fingers one by one, and said deliberately, "To meet new recruits."
Glenn Hutchinson: "..."
Just confirmed marriage, and she’s going to meet new recruits?!
Just as the confusion arose, Flossie Wright demonstrated with her actions that her concern indeed lay with—new recruits.
As if filling out this form was a mere spur-of-the-moment decision.
Glenn Hutchinson felt a headache coming on.
"Also," after walking a few steps, Flossie Wright reconsidered, turned back, and looked at Glenn Hutchinson’s eyes, opening her mouth helplessly, "Help me change dormitories."
Glenn Hutchinson’s expression became slightly more severe, nodding without hesitation.
He knew Flossie Wright had already visited the dormitory upon returning.
Flossie Wright and Belinda Nichols shared a room, but recently, all Belinda Nichols’ belongings had been removed, leaving nothing behind. Now, only Flossie Wright’s belongings remained.
That room, which they once shared, held more or less memories. Flossie Wright could perhaps live there peacefully, but there was no need for her to do so.
Once she left, nothing would be left there.
Straightforwardly, leaving nothing behind might be better for Flossie Wright.
Some people kept within the heart are enough, without needing constant remembrance or attachment.
Flossie Wright exited the office, holding a roster.
At the bottom of the office building, Joshua Bailey, dressed in camouflage uniform, had been waiting for her for quite some time.
"Come, come, I’ll take you to see this group of new recruits."
Upon seeing Flossie Wright descending the stairs, Joshua Bailey smiled and waved at her.
What a rarity, truly rare.
A year ago, while he was an adjutant training Flossie Wright, he would never have imagined such a day would come.
In just one year’s time, Flossie Wright had gone from being a promising trainee to standing on equal ground with him as an instructor, starting to train a new batch of students alongside him.
The world... is full of uncertainties!
