Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism

Chapter 233 Bright Future

Niall's probably gonna study something in finance, maybe even go abroad for it.

Elaine blinked and said, "I'm heading to military school."

"Got it."

That meant they'd be splitting up.

But Niall didn't overthink it then. Where he studied didn't really matter. They'd still see each other again in the future anyway.

Elaine waved her hand at him and said, "Go on back. I should be going too.

"Wait."

Elaine pulled out the ice cream stick from her mouth and handed it to Niall.

It had "Bright Future" written on it.

That year, it was trendy to engrave messages on ice cream sticks, like opening a blind box. After finishing the ice cream, you could see a blessing carved on the stick.

Niall took the ice cream stick, hearing Elaine's clear voice beside him.

"Well, here's to bright futures for both of us."

Many years passed after that.

After finishing college, Niall returned to Hoiten, while Elaine went to the border. They never saw each other again.

The two words stuck in Niall's memory.
