“Impressive! Lulu, you’re really a genius! How did you come up with such a wonderful concept?” Colin
said.
I grinned with pride, and Colin gazed at me with admiration in his eyes. “You’ve always been outstanding.
I was so outstanding. I had put in more effort than anyone else to gain that person’s attention. Why could
Colin see it, but Felix never seemed to take notice?
In the end, it was all because Felix didn’t care.
It was nearly 11:00 pm by the time we finished our discussion. The campus had grown quiet as it neared
lights–out time. The research institute was far from my department, yet Colin insisted on accompanying
me back, opting for the path alongside the rose–covered wall.
As we passed the flowered corridor, I pretended to casually glance around, searching for the passionate
couple.
Unfortunately, they had already left.
“Lulu, why were you acting so sneaky tonight? Is there something you’re keeping from me?” Colin asked.
I rolled my eyes at Colin and then playfully jumped on his back, pounding his shoulders, which made him

remained resolute.
He resisted all my efforts, consistently responding with, “You’ll find out one day.”
