Chapter 216

Ryder recalled, the first time he heard the name Agnes, was on the third day of military training after

enrolling in university.

At that time, he had just come back from abroad and was still not used to domestic life and jet lag

The scorching summer, the high-intensity military training, and what was worse, he ran into a very strict

officer.

Back then, military training wasn’t divided by majors or classes. It was random, each group consisting

of sixty people from different majors and classes.

In order to test their endurance, the officer would always make them stand in the blazing sun for half an

hour before lunch every day when the sun was at its strongest

He was not feeling well in those few days, but kept pushing through

When he felt that he was about to fail and the world in front of him began to become blurred, someone

next to him suddenly handed him a bottle of mineral water The girl’s voice was clear and pleasing to

the ear, “Hey, boy, this is for you.”

He strained his eyes to look at the person next to him, only to see a face that made his heartbeat race.

She handed him a bottle of mineral water and said softly, “Drink it, but don’t let the officer see you.”

Ryder took the water bottle, which had clearly been drunk from before.

He was a germaphobe, not liking to use things that others had touched, let alone water that someone

else had drunk.

However, at that moment, he didn’t mind at all.

He opened the bottle and took a big gulp, and the world in front of him gradually became clear.

From that day on, he began to pay attention to this girl.

Unfortunately, just as they were about to get to know each other, they were separated into different

training groups due to re-grouping.

But he still often saw her.

For instance, during breaks, she liked to sit under the basketball hoop on the playground with a group

of friends, chatting, and sometimes even sneaking some snacks

That summer, the temperature was unusually high

When everyone was sitting on the ground, exhausted after training, she could always be seen handing

out bottles of mineral water to the people around her. He wasn’t good at making friends, but he still

learned her name from others.

Agnes–

That summer was long, hot, and suffocating

But that name was like a block of ice in the summer heat, making him feel cool and refreshed every

time he thought of it.

In the following years, he hardly ever spoke to Agnes, but he knew everything about her

She was a journalism student, loved eating at the second cafeteria. She spent most of her weekends in

the library, and at nine-thirty every night, she would run a lap around the playground before going to

bed…

And her boyfriend, named Elton Taylor.

He had been quietly paying attention to this girl, but she seemed unaware of his existence.

Jared once told him, “If you look at a girl and your heart races at first sight, if you feel like you’ve been

electrocuted and can’t stop trembling, then, that girl is your true love.”

However, by the time he realized this, she had already become Jared’s girl.

But his memory was still stuck in that summer, her crisp voice, “Hey, boy…

Agnes had already returned to the house, and Jared followed her in.

They started arguing, and Alyssa, seeing this, walked over

Agnes saw Alyssa coming and stopped arguing with Jared.

Alyssa asked, “What’s up with you two, why the fight?”

Agnes didn’t answer, but Jared said. “We’re leaving”

He grabbed Agnes hand and started heading out.

Agnes walked along, trying to shake off Jared’s grip as they went.
