Walking at Night

"Hmm?" Henry was confused. He really did not expect that Sylvia would say such a thing.

He looked at Sylvia and said, "Why are you telling me this?"

"I just don't want you to misunderstand us." The lights at the intersection changed. Sylvia looked ahead and said, "Sam's family and my grandfather know each other. When he was a soldier in the army, I happened to have a business deal there and went to see him once. The soldiers in their army like to joke with me. In fact, we are just ordinary friends."

Henry nodded and said nothing.

Seeing Henry's reaction, Sylvia thought that Henry was angry, so she did not say anything more.

In fact, Henry was jealous.

Back at home, Sylvia changed into sports suit and packed some clothes. When Henry finished cooking the soup, she rushed to the hospital with him.

In the hospital, Sylvia saw Milan lying on the bed with a pale face, and tears immediately flowed out of her eyes.

"Why are you crying?" Looking at Sylvia's tearful face, Milan didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Sylvia scolded, "You bastard, why didn't you tell me about such a big thing? If Henry had not told me, were you going to hide it from me all the time?"

Milan smiled slightly. "If Henry did not know about it, I would have died secretly. How could you have the chance to scold me here? After all, if it were not for Henry today, I would have died. The doctor just told me that the difficulty of the surgery was extremely high, and no one in the whole hospital had the confidence to do it. Sylvia, you really hit a jackpot."

Sylvia blushed when she heard what Milan said.

Subconsciously, she glanced at Henry next to her.

Henry was sitting there, carefully cutting an apple.

Henry cooked the dinner for them. As for Henry's cooking, Milan could not stop praising.

"Henry, why don't you teach me how to cook when I'm fully recovered?" Milan looked at chicken soup at the bottom of the dinner box.

"Okay, by the way, where is your friend Nico?"

"I was also afraid that she would find out about this, so I tricked her into going on a trip. This girl will come back in a few days. Most likely, she'll scold me as well." Milan shaked her head.

"You deserve it!" Sylvia stretched out a finger and pointed it hard on Milan's head. "You should have informed us about this earlier. When you get better, I'll punish you!"

"Tsk!" Milan rolled her eyes. "When I'm recovered, it's hard to tell which one of us will be the winner."

They have been talking for a long time. By the time they finished, it was already dark outside.

"Okay, Sylvia you can go back with Henry. Don't stay here tonight." Milan said after seeing the time.

"How can I?" Sylvia shook her head. "I have to stay and take care of you tonight."

"Let's go and leave her alone." Henry said, "Milan is now a little weak. The most important thing is to have a good rest. We are here and will affect her. Tomorrow, I will take care of her. You don't have to worry about it."

After hearing Henry's words, Sylvia had to give up the idea of spending the night with Milan. After all, Henry was a professional in this field. She packed up her things and said, "Well, Milan, I'll come to see you tomorrow. Have a good rest and call us if you need anything."

"Okay." Milan nodded and waved to Henry and Sylvia. "You should go now."

After they left, Milan's expression became a little complicated. She felt a little strange when she saw Henry this time. The wound on her left chest was reminding her of something.

When they get out of the hospital, Sylvia finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Milan in good condition. "Henry, thank you very much. Milan is my best friend. If it weren't for you, I really don't know.."

"Why are you thanking me?" Henry interrupted Sylvia. "You're always so polite. Anyway, I'm your legal husband. You shouldn't say thank you to me."

A legal husband?

When Sylvia heard these words, she was stunned and turned her head to look at the man beside her.

Yes, he was my legal husband. In terms of relationship, we should be the two most intimate people in the world. Why should I still be so polite?

Was it because I have never treated him as my husband?

Walking to the front of the car, Sylvia just took out the car key. After thinking for two seconds, she put the key back in the bag.

"Henry, do not drive. Let's have a walk."

"Sure." Henry nodded indifferently.

It was 10 o'clock in the evening, and the sky was very dark. Fortunately, the conditions of the road in Yinzhou were good. It was a decent summer day with green willow trees. Walking on the road made people feel refreshed.

Sylvia kicked the small stone in front of her with her foot.

"Henry, where does your family come from? Why haven't I heard you mention your family?" Sylvia pretended to ask unintentionally. When she asked this question, it meant that she began to take the initiative to know this man.

"My family?" Henry smiled and said, "My father and my mother divorced early. He doesn't exist in my memory. My mother passed away when I was 14, so you haven't heard me mention it."

"Ah!" Sylvia's mouth was wide open and her eyes were full of apologies. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to..."

"It's all right." Henry waved his hand indifferently. "It's been so long. I've been used to it and let it go. I used to live there."

Henry stretched out his hand and pointed to the distance. "The old city area, but now it has been destroyed. After my mother's death, I made a living by myself."

Sylvia was silent. Although Henry said it in a casual way, she could feel the hardship in it.

A person who had no parents at the age of fourteen, no one took care of him, and he wandered around alone. He said it was easy, but how many people could do it?

Henry looked up at the sky where the moon in the sky. He took a deep breath and said, "The heavens are fair. They will give you whatever they take from you. I have been homeless since I was a child. I didn't have a stable home, but I have seen more magic in this world and have some special encounters. In general, I don't have much regret. The most regrettable thing is that my mother cannot meet her daughter-in-law."

Henry gnashed his teeth.

Sylvia's pretty face blushed even more because of Henry's words.

As they walked on the road, Sylvia took the initiative to talk about other topics. She had never chatted with Henry like this before. Suddenly, she found that they had many common topics.
