Seeing that Vivian still did not respond, Holden looked puzzled and spoke again, "What is it that makes you think so seriously?"
Vivian smiled and said, "Nothing, just feel as if I knew you before, generally I do not make friends so quickly, except for my friends who grew up, you are the first!"
Vivian used to guard her heart, not willing to let others peek because, at that time, she was scarred and did not want others to see her so helpless.
And she went back home and kept wrapping herself up because everyone around her knew about what happened two years ago and she had to act tough. She doesn't want to get sympathetic looks from others because of her feelings.
Holden didn't know about her past, didn't know about her and Hanley's previous affairs, so she could simply be herself.
Vivian said with a big smile on her face, "So do you think we would have been at the same school before? It's just that we didn't know each other."
Holden's heart fluttered and an impossible thought flashed through his mind - did she remember him?
But immediately he dismissed it, there was no way she would remember him. Because the old him and the present are not at all alike, that is, his father is not able to immediately be able to identify the old one as him.
Although it is clear that Vivian will not remember him, but hearing her say so, Holden still can not help but excited. But his face was still calm, and he didn't show anything. Because he was afraid that if he was too excited, he would make Vivian suspicious and could only say in a joking tone, "Maybe we really have met before, but maybe it was a quick glance."
Vivian agreed and said, "Hahaha, there are so many people in the world, if you say so, it is indeed possible."
It was just a joke, so Vivian naturally didn't take it to heart.
After taking a look at Vivian's application, Holden said tentatively, "So love at first sight is also possible."
Vivian did not want to give others unlikely hope, and there were some things that absolutely could not have any hesitation.
"Maybe it's possible, but it's still whether people believe it or not."
Vivian is aware that she has Hanley by her side, and that she and Holden can only be friends.
"The old me believed, but I lost the bet. I shouldn't deny everyone because of one person, but once bitten by a snake, I'm afraid of a well rope, I still believe more in love over time, more in details than in sweet words."
Vivian indirectly told Holden what she thought, she didn't want to delay a person like that.
Not wanting to continue this kind of topic, she changed the subject and said, "Where did you buy this porridge? It feels sweet and delicious."
Holden clearly Vivian is deliberately changing the subject, but still follow her words answered, "is slightly sweet, but do not eat more, but the doctor only allows you to drink white rice porridge."
Holden put a lid on the remaining white rice porridge in the thermos.
He didn't answer Vivian's question because he was too embarrassed to tell her that this was the white rice porridge he had learned all night long.
Not getting the answer she wanted, Vivian did not continue to ask, but looked at the time and hurriedly ate a few more mouthfuls of porridge before saying to Holden: "Have you finished the discharge procedures?"
Holden nodded and said, "You can leave as soon as you're packed!"
Long ago when he came over, he had already done the discharge formalities.
