Chapter 224


    At that moment, I felt like a carefree child again. I put down the guitar and jumped up and down,


    brimming with happiness.

    Felix was also affected by my emotions. Weughed and shouted like fools. Holding hands on the


    balcony, our happy voices echoed far and wide.


    As I faced the floor–to–ceiling ss on the balcony, a figure suddenly appeared.


    Colin was standing under the sunset, still wearing the clothes he had on the night before. He was


    carrying a big shopping bag that had be dusty from all the travel. He appeared tired, with slightly


    messy hair.


    I wondered how long he had been standing there.


    “Colin!” I excitedly ran to the window and waved at him.


    After thinking about Colin all day and night, I finally felt relieved when I saw that he was


    safe.


    He had driven out verytest night. I was worried about him having an ident due to fatigue.


    I was uncertain about my feelings toward him. But above all, I wanted him to be okay. The thought of


    him getting hurt or being in pain made me uneasy.


    Colin waved, stepped forward, and handed me the bag. He smiled gently. “I went to the city next door


    and brought back some of their famous candies for you. Try them.”


    I opened the bag to find various colored boxes that contained different vors. The topmost box was


    shaped like a tiny house and contained a piece of exquisite fruitcake.


    I saw two child figurines atop the cake through the transparent box lid. The younger girl’s hand was in


    the elder boy’s grasp. The girl had a bright smile, and her head was slightly turned. She was shielding


    the sun with one hand.


    This scene seemed familiar. Had Colin ever taken me by the hand and brought me to buy candies


    when I was a child?


    “Thank you, Colin. These look delicious.”


    I felt a surge of warmth in my heart.


    I was in a good mood as I had gone back to ying the guitar and even managed to y the


    7/0


    entire tune. Moreover, Colin had also kindly brought me my favorite candies.

    Recently, my personality had been leaning more toward the gentle and quiet type. It had been a long


    time since I had revealed my happiness so obviously.


    I unconsciously,wanted to share my joy with Colin.


    He was constantly smiling while standing silently outside the window. His eyes were as magnificent as


    the night sky, full of his affection toward me.


    I could feel my heart softening. It felt like my determination was waning.


    I was too nervous to look into his brilliant eyes since my heart was beating abnormally. Instead, I


    peered into the bag with a hint of panic.


    I opened the lime green box to reveal apple–vored candy inside. I took one out and bit into it. My


    tongue was filled with a fruity aroma right away. I was content with the sweet and sour vor.


    “Colin, it’s so delicious!” I jumped up happily and spun around twice, feeling like I had gone back to my


    childhood.


    Candy was my favorite back then. I used to feel happy every time I ate a piece of candy.


    I was reminded of a memory I shared with Colin. I was five while he was 12. Back then, he would


    sneakily bring me to the candy shop every week and buy me my favorite candies with the money he


    had secretly saved.


    At this moment, I looked into Colin’s gentle eyes and felt my heart melt. I could see my own reflection


    through his eyes, which were shining with joy.
