Chapter 226
But why did Colin look so depressed and alone?
With Colin in mind, I stopped practicing the guitar. I planned to inform Hannah that I would be taking my leave.
When I opened the door of the balcony and walked into the room, I noticed how lively it was. Everyone was hard at work, practicing. A charming junior was passionately reciting poems while gesturing appropriately.
Seeing these people’s efforts, I couldn’t say that I wanted to leave early.
As a senior who had cleared the postgraduate admission exam, I should lead my juniors by example.
All I could do was go back to practicing the guitar. Before I could do that, I saw Felix sitting on a chair with a gloomy expression. He was continuing to play the guitar.
I practiced until 6:00 pm. My proficiency in playing the song improved significantly. My arms hurt and felt sore because I hadn’t worked them out in a long time.
To avoid the tragedy of going too far, I told Felix to end our practice. I then tried to call Colin to make an appointment for dinner.
But he didn’t pick up.
While I was holding the phone in a daze, Hannah burst in. She said that everyone had discussed it and agreed to go for a buffet.
She intentionally positioned herself near Felix and awaited his response with anticipation.
Felix appeared unperturbed by her overt display of adoration as he exuded calmness and indifference.
I couldn’t determine if he was pretending or if he truly didn’t sense Hannah’s intentions. Or perhaps he was already accustomed to being wooed by women since he was young, which was why he didn’t care much for Hannah’s enthusiasm.
I couldn’t reject the invitation, so Hannah ended up dragging me to the restaurant.
The owner of the restaurant had innovative ideas. The restaurant occupied a large space that was more than 30 yards long, and it was divided into three sections.
The area in the center was utilized to receive guests, and the service bar was opposite it. The

central area was composed of dark gray fabric couches that formed a circle. The layout was serene and atmospheric, although dull due to the moody and simplistic style.
The themed barbecue area was to the left. From the entryway, I could see a corner of the performance stage as well as the distinctive interior style of the area. The sharp contrast of hues caught my gaze right away.
On the right side was a leisure bar. The booths had unique characteristics due to the relatively low light and style. Overall, everything was planned well, particularly the murals that were only visible under brighter light. It was a refined, traditional look..”
Only a few tables were occupied in the leisure bar as it was still the early hours. The environment looked mysterious due to the dim lights.
