Chapter 154
“Why openly and not secretly?” Colin leaned on the sink, facing my teasing
calmly.
“Since the medieval era, it hasn’t been appropriate for men and women to be too close to one another. If you enter my room secretly, it may affect your reputation. But if we meet openly, you can protect your reputation. It’s my best offer.”
Colin turned his head, laughing so hard that his shoulders shook. He then turned and pushed me out. “Let’s go. To protect myself, I’ll go to your room openly.”
I had rarely seen him since I became an adult, and his opportunities to come to my room were even rarer.
“Nothing has changed. I didn’t expect you to keep your things long–term.”
Colin sat at my study table, picking up a book to read.
“Of course, I…”
Before I finished speaking, my phone rang. Matthew was giving me a video
call.
I looked at Colin guiltily, not knowing whether I should answer the call.
His expression changed, and he signaled me. “Be polite. Pick it up.”
I immediately clicked the answer button. Matthew’s face and his surroundings soon broke into my vision.
Judging from the furnishings and environment, it should be a high–end
restaurant. Some young people passed behind him. The red figure sitting on the couch was similar to my roommate, Helen.
“Lulu, how are you? Have you eaten?”
He plucked tits evebrows, seemingly a little tired. His eyes were also dim, without the softness and sweetness of the past.
“I’ve eaten. Are you okay? Do you have a headache?”
When asked that, Colin, who was at the side, showed a darkened expression:
“A little, but it’s nothing. Don’t worry. By the way, are your parents okay? Don’t forget to send my greetings.”
“Yes, I will
Several people over there called him over. He smiled apologetically at me. “I hate socializing, but I can’t refuse it.”
I smiled. “Go ahead. Take care of yourself. I’ll hang up.‘
“Lutu,” he called me with deep affection. “Come back early. I miss you so much
I felt my face burning hot.
I was very embarrassed to show affection in front of Colin.
After I hurriedly hung up the phone, I saw his gloomy expression.
He asked deeply, “Do you like him?”
I thought seriously before answering, “I’m developing feelings for him.”
“Why him? Is it because of those ut goosebump–inducing letters?”
