Chapter 81
“No, you’re just making me happy. I’m nothing compared to you.”
Colin tickled me because of my words.
Terrified, I screamed and ran around the yard. Cooperating with me, Colin chased after me. He was neither quick nor slow. He accompanied me to have fun.
When I was around Colin, I was always treasured. It was as if I was still the innocent girl I was back then.
For two consecutive days, both of us had gone to every corner of this place. I had imprinted these beautiful landscapes in my mind and taken many pictures.
When I returned to the dormitory, I wanted to sketch out these landscapes I couldn’t get enough of with my pencil in that way, they could last forever.
Good times always passed quickly. Colin helped me fasten my seatbelt. When he was taking me back to the dormitory, I looked out to see the lakes and mountains. I didn’t want to leave this place.
I couldn’t help but wipe away my tears. Colin also used his sleeve to wipe away my tears. “If you like it here, I’ll bring you here again next year. We have to go back now, alright?”

drawing. Gradually, I found joy in it and got better at it.
Initially, I wanted to use the event provided by the client to set the scene. But the scenery of Western
Loch kept popping up in my mind. I had an idea. I wanted to use Western Loch’s scenery as the
background. In that way, the old couple who had loved each other for half a century would live in the
magnificent scenery forever.

Colin conveyed my thoughts to the client. Unexpectedly, the client agreed. They also mentioned that if 1
drew it well, they would pay more for it.
It was an unexpected gain. As I was delighted, I drew comfortably and easily.
Drawing always made me happy. I could forget about everything negative that happened.
I thought Colin and I could stay happy forever, but I angered him because I helped someone out.
It went like this.
That day, I didn’t have classes, so I walked around the empty basketball court. A pretty senior stopped me. “Are you Luna? I heard them call you Lulu. Can I call you that, too? I’m Jasmine Taylor, a junior in the
