“Have you ever served in the military?”
“The place where I stayed was much harsher than the military,” Marcus remarked
as he added more sticks to the fire.
Upon hearing his arrogant response, Millie pursed her lips. Humph! Perhaps he
had experienced hell?
Yet, in the flickering glow of the fire, Marcus’ face remained strikingly handsome.
Millie approached the fire, squatting down beside it. Why did this man have to be
so good-looking? It seemed like a waste for someone so ill-tempered to possess
such a charming countenance.
As they sat before the fire, Marcus remained fixated on the flames, while Millie
scrolled through the photos on her phone, occasionally stealing glances at him.
Feeling her back growing colder and colder, she set her phone down, reached for
the warm quilt beside her, and stretched out on the bed.
Though she lay on the bed, sleep eluded her. It had been a perilous day. She
picked up her phone, recalling that she had downloaded a TV series. Even
without intemet access, she could watch it now.
She began watching. After some time, Marcus approached the bed.
“What's the matter?” Millie tured to him warily.
“Go to sleep. Do you expect me to sit by the fire all night?” Marcus retorted
sarcastically.
Millie had been seated for a while, her body stiffening in the process. She
understood that no one could remain seated all night. She shifted towards the
wall, making space for Marcus to lie down.
“Then sleep it is. Just don’t touch me.”
With a displeased expression, Marcus settled onto the bed, one arm resting
above his head, and his long legs crossed.
Millie glanced at his legs. They were far lengthier than her own. Encased in
straight brown pants, they appeared enticing.
She swallowed and surreptitiously gazed upward. The hem of his blue shirt was
neatly tucked into a golden belt. He possessed a flawless physique and a
handsome face.

Once Marcus settled on the bed, he
stared at the wooden ceiling.
However, Millie's loud volume while
watching the drama was akin to
setting off firecrackers beside him.
Sleep eluded him entirely. The

Millie had a habit of increasing the volume to its highest when watching TV
series.
It was a remnant of her past, when she often watched TV with her hard-of-
hearing grandmother. Over time, she had grown accustomed to this practice.
Marcus shifted his body and glimpsed Millie's face. He observed her as she was
immersed in the soap opera, finding the story mundane. How could she derive
such enjoyment from it?

Suddenly, there was a loud noise
from outside. It seemed as though
something had been blown to the
ground by the wind. Instinctively,
Millie moved closer to Marcus,
inadvertently occupying one of his
arms as a makeshift pillow. The
