Love Began with the First Meeting novel Chapter 1296

His family had already decided his future, but he refused to accept it, so he deliberately chose to answer only a few questions and didn't finish all of the topics in the examination. However, his failure had given Maggie a position higher than him, and as the No.1 of the city, she often laughed at him.

But Maggie didn't know that he refused to listen to his family and gave up the chance to enter National Defense University for her sake. Against all odds, he had chosen to become a military physician because of her. Human nature was strange sometimes. Life had two sides, but they would only know which side was correct when walking to the end.

Tompson turned around and walked to Edgar's dorm, sighing in defeat. Edgar was the person he admired the most, and Maggie was the woman he liked the most. If the two were in a relationship, it would indeed be great.

It was not Tompson's style to be a coward, but he could clearly see that Maggie's feelings for Edgar was not the kind that he wanted. He just felt grateful because of what had happened in the past, and he knew how a woman thought of a man.

"Knock, knock."

"Come in!"

Tompson pushed the door open, walked in and saw Edgar dressing in casual wear. He asked doubtfully, "Have you forgotten that I am supposed to check up on you?"

"You are late..." Edgar checked his watch. "I am going to the Mechanization Brigade to discuss something with Officer Su."

"Didn't you work on the night shift? You are in high spirits... If I didn't know, I would have thought that you had slept all night." He gave Edgar a critical look and put the medical bag on the table. Taking out some equipment he said, "Anyway, I am here now, so let me examine you."

Edgar looked at him helplessly and stopped dressing. He disrobed and let Tompson examine him, saying, "I don't understand. You are so insistent and didn't accept the choice Officer Lin made for you."

"I have a professional spirit and love what I do." Tompson retorted, "My choices have nothing to do with my father."

"The rebellious Tompson of the past chose to stay in Eagle. And it has been so many years. In fact, I always want to ask you: Why did you change your mind later?" Edgar lay on his stomach and let Tompson check the burn scabs on his back.

"Buddha says... some stories are better left untold." Tompson squatted and examined him carefully, saying, "You have a body of iron. It is almost recovered. But, when all the scabs slough off, your back will be ugly..."

"I am not a woman!" Edgar laughed. "Anyway, better my back than my face. It won't become a problem if one day I were to get married."

Tompson was amused. "If you could be so humorous in front of women, your marriage problem would have been solved a long time ago."

"You are smooth-tongued, but your own marriage will soon become a problem." Edgar quickly dressed and looked at Tompson getting his equipment together. "Mr. William Du has said that most men in Eagle are old enough to get married. He worries about us too much."

"It's nothing. After you've solved the problem, I might start thinking about it." Tompson slung the medical bag over his back. "I will pick one from the women you don't like." He burst our laughing hysterically.

Edgar shook his head, finished dressing, put on his boots and left his dorm with Tompson. After going downstairs, they both got into their respective cars and left with a quick wave of goodbye. After a lengthy military exercise, all the soldiers were happy to take things easier, but the leaders were still busy working.

After expressing her love to Edgar, Maggie found that she had fewer and fewer chances to meet Edgar. She didn't know if he was avoiding her and got fretted, but there was nothing she could do to change the situation. Time passed quickly. More than one month had passed after the military exercise. Maggie would end her internship soon and then return to school to finish her papers in less than half a month, but she seldom saw Edgar.

"Maggie, the instructor told us to sweep away the snow outside." Edith's voice called from outside.

"Okay. I am coming..." Maggie stopped feeling sad and grabbed a cotton hat before walking out.

The temperature kept falling and it was cloudy these days. Overnight, there was snow everywhere on the training grounds.

There were many people around who had started to sweep the snow from the training grounds, and even the members of the Falcon Commando who had just returned from their training in wilderness survival had joined them. They all gasped for breath in the freezing cold, but cleared up the snow in high spirits.
