Chapter 7: Pacific War

June [-], Hawaii

The curtains were pulled open suddenly, and the glare of the South Island morning sun shone directly on Ivan's sleeping face.He immediately frowned, and suddenly raised his arms to cover his eyelids.

"Doctor Abel, it's time to get up."

A pleasant female voice came from the ear, and the standard American pronunciation made Ivan feel a little dreamy.After thinking about it for a long time with my eyes closed, I gradually remembered that I had left China, and now I was living in the Hawaiian Islands, which is like summer all the year round, at the home of his friend John Horston.

The Battle of Midway Island (Note [-]) that ended yesterday left Ivan exhausted.Since coming to the Pacific Theater, every battle has ended very quickly, within a month, and even the battle of Midway Island only takes a few days to decide the outcome.However, combat at sea is completely different from combat on land. Aiwen sometimes needs to board a shaking ship for first aid.

Cannon fire exploded around the ship one by one, and fighter planes circled overhead.He had to let go of these distractions, forget his fears, and perform emergency surgery.

Ai Wen reluctantly opened his eyes, only to see a red-haired, blue-eyed big beauty propping her chin on the edge of the bed with one hand, staring at him intently, with a charming smile on her face.

"Good morning, doctor." The beauty said, parting her sexy red lips.

"...Good morning, Alice." Ivan frowned slightly, pulled back the distance between each other without any trace, sat up and took the glasses on the bedside table and put them on.

Alice Field, his head nurse and the American woman who takes care of Ivan's daily life.Although she has rejected her kind care many times, Alice is still relentless.American doctors, who maintain a polite attitude towards women, really can't do anything to drive her out of the door.Over time, no suitable reason could be found.

The sea breeze gently blows the white translucent gauze curtains, and the morning in Hawaii is very comfortable and pleasant.

"Hey! Aiwen, that Chinese friend of yours has written to you again. I feel like I am about to become your exclusive postman." Holden held a letter in his hand and walked in helplessly, but in Seeing Alice's expression the moment the rain cleared, his eyes lit up immediately.

"Good morning, Lieutenant Horston." The beautiful head nurse said to him politely.

"Good morning, Alice." His eyes followed the red-haired lady as she walked in front of him and her back disappeared behind the kitchen door.

"If you like it, go after it." Ai Wen looked at his friend, and felt that the expression on the other side was very interesting.

"But she likes you, my friend." Halston shrugged, not denying his affection for the red-haired beauty.

He doesn't like to take by force, not to mention Alice Field's obvious love for Ivan is well known.People have their own hearts, and the ones they like are their friends, how can they chase after them.

"No, John, you don't have to worry about this at all. I didn't think about being with her. If you can get Alice's heart, I don't have to bother to reject her, and I'm afraid of hurting her." Ivan got up and snatched her away. Holden could not wait to open the letter in his hand.

"Why? She's a good girl. You know, if it wasn't for this war, you and I would have gotten married a long time ago." Halston looked unbelievable, as if Ivan didn't accept how stupid Alice Field was, But in the next second, he suddenly said, "Unless...you have someone in your heart."

Hearing this, Aiwen looked at the letter, but smiled and said nothing.

"Well... your face says it all. I guess, she is still a Chinese girl. But why didn't you tell me? If I knew of her existence, I would be the first to oppose your return, Aiwen .”

"Because it was this person who strengthened my belief in coming back, John. We believe that we will win." Ivan didn't tell Horston... the person in his heart was not a woman.

"Victory...Of course, I never thought we would lose." The American Second Lieutenant said confidently and firmly.

Ai Wen carefully put away another letter written by Chen Yuchen, and then smiled and said: "Don't worry about pursuing Alice boldly! My friend, she is a good girl."

Halston heard the joke in Ivan's words, smiled helplessly, shook his head and walked towards the kitchen.
