Chapter 2243

Shirley smiled as well. “Sure, Ill call you Jasper, then.”

Jasper nodded with a smile. “Of course. We'll be going now, then.” Jasper took Willow's hand. A moment ago, he

was a strict instructor, but a moment later, he was a gentle boyfriend.

Shirley waved them goodbye and saw them off. She turned around and saw Cole walking toward her. Shy, she

quickly turned around and tried to leave. However, Cole stopped her. “A minute, Shirley.”

Shirley looked back and tensed up. “What do you need, captain?” Cole stared at her, trying to say something,

and then he smiled. “Nothing. Just want to say you're doing great in the training. We'll meet again.”

Shirley knew it was the last day of training, and he wouldn't be the instructor for the next three days. She

nodded. ‘See you around, Cole.”

Cole nodded and was about to leave, but Willow's message was ringing in Shirley’s head. She couldn't help but

call out to him. “Cole, wait.”

Cole looked back. The setting sun shone on him, making him look strong, tough, and tall. He was young, but he

had a rugged air around him.

Girls loved men like him. “Anything else?” Cole asked, his eyes filled with anticipation. Shirley took a deep breath

and looked at him. “Cole, can you ask to get assigned to my dad’s base?”

Cole smiled. “Why?”

“Because I...” Shirley was a little embarrassed to say her feelings out loud. Cole was such a righteous man, and

yet she was trying to flirt with him. It was inappropriate. She held back her feelings. “I'd like to cto your

class again.”

A hint of disappointment flickered in Cole’s eyes, but he nodded happily. “I'll make the application when I can.”

Cole left. Shirley saw him off and heaved a sigh. She bit her lip, cursing her cowardice. Shirley was worried she

might let her father down. She was only twenty-three and had yet to serve the country. If she jumped straight

into love, she might look like a failure.

She didn’t dare to talk about her feelings. If she had the chance, she would serve the country instead of wasting

ton something like love.

Cole walked further and further away. Shirley sighed and turned around, but she didn’t notice that Cole was

standing nearby, seeing her off before he went away himself. Willow cback to her hand sat Jasper

down. Earnestly, she asked, “Hey, Jasper, are you close with Cole?”

Jasper looked at her curiously and nervously at the stime. She's asking about another man? Noticing his

nervousness, Willow wrapped her arms around his neck. “Don’t get jealous. This is for someone else. Just tell me

about him.”

Jasper heaved a sigh of relief. He then remembered that Willow had talked to Shirley for a while just earlier, and

he knew who this was for instantly. A moment later, he said, “He’s my junior. We're on amicable terms, and he

graduated at the top of his batch. A nice guy.”

Willow was happy for her friend. She couldn't ask about his family, however. Jasper held her arm and pulled her

aside. “I need to bathe. Smells like sweat.”

Willow pushed him back down on the couch. “You're not leaving. I'm not complaining, you know.”

Jasper loved this. She knows how to cheerup. Just then, Willow's phone buzzed. She picked it up. One of her

suitors had texted her.
