Purchased A Mr. Right
Chapter 1462

Crystal talked on the phone for about five minutes.

When she hung up the phone, maybe she didn't even notice it herself, that she had secretly breathed a sigh of relief, as if she had completed some kind of task by making the phone call.

A female volunteer, who was standing in the shadows together with Crystal, asked curiously, "Crystal, your boyfriend's phone call? He loves you so deeply!"

Crystal was a bit embarrassed by what her companion said.

Her cheeks were slightly blushed. Before she could answer, Erik's voice interrupted their dialogue. "You have a boyfriend?"

Crystal was shocked.

She turned around and found that Erik was standing a few steps behind her.

The tall and straight figure of him almost could block all the sunlight. He had changed into a green military uniform as green as pine twigs, and had tidied up his military boots. With the sunlight on his back, his facial features seemed like a sculpture.

Crystal suddenly felt that her brother was now as tall and straight as her father, Adam Chin. This was especially obvious when Erik was wearing his military uniform. His shoulders were prominent, and his ches was broad. He was indeed a very valiant and charming man.

"Brother..." She was somewhat distracted now.

The female volunteer elbowed Crystal's waist, and then she said in a low voice. "Yesterday, you fell into the arms of the soldier. Today, you call him brother'. Crystal, you are really awesome, aren't you?" Crystal was speechless.

She touched her forehead and explained shyly, "He is really my brother!"

Ignoring her companion, Crystal ran to Erik and asked with a smile, "Erik, have you had your breakfast?"

Erik replied in a low voice, "Uh-huh."

Her eyebrows were as curved as they were when she made the phone call just now.

The muscles at the corners of his lips tightened, and he repeated what he just said, "Lil Star, you have a boyfriend now?" Crystal scratched her head.

It seemed that she didn't know what to say, or maybe she was as shy as a little girl. She replied "Yes" in a very low voice.

Then, she lowered her head and felt a little embarrassed.

She had just reunited with Erik. After so many years of separation, the two of them both had a sense of alienation. She hadn't expected that she and Erik would discuss a private topic like whether she had a boyfriend so quickly.

But Crystal had a boyfriend indeed.

However, she and her boyfriend didn't stay with each other very often because there was seldom any chance for them to do so.

Before the summer vacation began, under the pressure from the boy, Crystal finally agreed to become his girlfriend. Then, the next day, she set off for Tbridge City as a volunteer in the medical team. In the future, Crystal wanted to become a doctor like her mother, who healed the wounded and rescued the dying. She was looking forward to gaining some experience as a medical worker.

There was no telecommunication signal in some remote areas of Tbridge City. For this reason, Crystal and her boyfriend had only a very limited number of chances to make phone calls to each other. Unexpectedly, Erik had overheard the phone call between them by coincidence.

Crystal raised her head and saw that Erik was staring at her.

Her heart almost skipped a beat.

The look in his eyes...

Why did he see her as a girl who had betrayed him?

Crystal felt a little guilty, but she didn't know the reason. She touched her nose and asked carefully, "Erik, are you okay?"

The muscles near Erik's lips were heavily tightened, which made his chin look a little too sharp.

His dark eyes stared at her for two seconds, and then he pursed his lips and said, "I'm fine!"

Crystal didn't know what to say."..."

Carrying their bags in their hands, the soldiers on the platform were walking out in an orderly manner. The coach which was arranged to carry members of the medical team had also arrived. Erik took Crystal's mountaineering bag and led her out of the station.

At this time, he had already calm himself down, and no sign of emotional fluctuation could be observed in his eyes.

The coach was parked among a number of military vehicles, which made it look particularly conspicuous,.

When Crystal was about to get on the coach, the sudden feeling of departure made she and Erik both feel very sad. They had just reunited not long ago, and now they were about to be separated again. Erik was a military officer, and he would have to stay in the army all the year round. Crystal was going to become a college student next semester. Her flight would take off and head for Francis City two hours later. She was not sure whether she would come to Tbridge City again during the next vacation...

She pursed her lips like a child and looked at her brother, asking, "Erik, when can we meet again?

Erik took her mobile phone, stored his phone number and name, and then put it back into her pocket.

His big hand caressed her head, and his lips were curled up. "Very soon!"

Crystal sighed.

The team leader urged Crystal to get on the coach as soon as possible. Finally, she had to say "goodbye" to Erik, and then got on the coach reluctantly.

The coach left first. From the rearview mirror, Crystal could still see the green military uniforms of the soldiers, which looked like a continuous mountain range. Erik, who was also dressed in military uniform, was still standing there. The sunlight shone on his face, and his dark eyes were still fixed on her.

Crystal felt very loath to part with Erik.

Because she didn't know when the two of them would meet again...

She could not help but feel regretful for one thing: She should have hugged him just now before getting on the coach!

The temperature in September in Francis City was very agreeable.

Crystal returned to the medical college. As a sophomore this year, she had to face relatively more schoolwork. She was required to read or even recite a great number of medical books every day and had to go to the laboratory very often to do experiments.

However, she didn't live in the dormitory.

After she was admitted into this medical college, Adam personally accompanied her to handle the relevant admission procedures. He felt that the living conditions in her dormitory were not good enough, and the air in the south was too humid for northerners like them. Adam was worried that his dear daughter might not be able to adapt to the living conditions there, and therefore he generously bought her an apartment near the street next to the college.

Crystal never refused her father's kindness. While she was still a high school student, she often went to Anthea's hospital and occasionally served as her little assistant. She learned quite a lot of medical knowledge and skills by accompanying her mother.

Sometimes, she could even act as a nurse... For instance, she could help a patient pull out a syringe needle or change medicines.

Under this circumstance, she could also make full use of her spare time after classes to work as an intern in the hospital. For this reason, it was relatively convenient for her to live outside of the college. In the evening, the sunset glow was beautiful.

Crystal ran out of the library in a hurry, holding her phone.

When the two of them were to separate again at the train station, Crystal asked Erik when they would meet again. He told her "very soon". At that time, she thought that Erik was just trying to console her, but she hadn't expected his words to be true.

Crystal walked down the steps and saw that Erik was smoking not far away under the sunset glow.

A military SUV was parked next to him. Erik's shoulders were wide, and he stood straight. It seemed that the postures of soldiers or military officers were often like this. No matter where they stood, their backs were always straight.

He was wearing a military cap, and the brim of the cap covered half of his face. As he spat out the smoke, the line of his jaw tightened and become smooth. When he had a serious attitude, his countenance was somewhat daunting.

Crystal walked over and asked, "Erik..."

Erik had already heard her footsteps. The moment before she spoke, he pinched his cigarette and turned around.

When Crystal received his phone call, she still thought that it was surreal, that it might just turn out to be an illusion. But after she saw his handsome face again, and confirmed that it was really him, she felt very joyful and excited.

She exclaimed, "Erik, why are you here?"

Erik explained, "I was transferred to this city and had just finished my admission procedures today. I have a whole day to rest.

I just want to see you again!"

Crystal's eyes were bright. "Really? Does it mean that we'll be able to meet each other frequently in the future?"

"En!" Erik's lips curled up.

He caressed her head, like coaxing a child. "Let's go... I'll take you to eat a delicious meal!"

However, Crystal's face became a little gloomy and embarrassed.
