Chapter 320


    “Go ahead. We’ll have lunch at home. I’ll take a look if there’s anything you like.”


    I had originally wanted to relieve myself. But after being stared at by Felix just now, I


    couldn’t do it anymore.


    I sat on the toilet in turmoil for a full five minutes, but I still couldn’t calm my panicked and


    fearful heart.


    Colin knocked on the bathroom door with concern, bringing my scattered soul back. I


    turned on the tap to wash my hands and opened the door without drying them. Water was still dripping


    from my fingers.


    Felix was still maintaining his posture on the couch. He slowly turned his head toward me upon hearing


    the bathroom door open. He was repeatedly saying in a very soft and cold voice, “…given her heart to


    him for saving her…”


    With Colin around, I wasn’t afraid of him. But the words he kept repeating made me shudder with fear


    and unease.


    “Lulu, don’t be afraid. I won’t hurt you,” Felix lowered his head and whispered. Then, he continued,


    “Lulu, after missing out for so many years, I regret everything. Can you forgive me and give me another


    chance? Please think about it, Lulu. This is myst time asking you.”


    I stood far away from him, shaking my head firmly.


    If he had said these words a few years earlier, maybe I would have been moved. But afte more than


    five years, his words sounded nothing but annoying to me. His affection orck thereof meant nothing


    to me.

    Perhaps my indifference stimted him. He pressed his right hand against his left chest with force, his


    expression changing from solemn to distressed.


    The darkness emanating from him seemed even stronger than before.


    I wanted to tell him that I no longer needed his affection, that his affection would only be a burden to


    me. But Felix’s presence felt so oppressive that I couldn’t say a word. I could only fearfully escape to


    the kitchen and hold onto Colin’s waist as he was picking vegetables.


    I fled in vain from my


    hood sweetheart.


    “Why didn’t you dry your hands?” Colin let me hold onto him. He was speaking in a deep voice with a


    gentle and affectionate tone.

    “I forgot.”


    Colin chuckled hoarsely. “How could you forget that? Do you want me to kiss your hands. dry?


    Feeling embarrassed, I withdrew my hands and dried them on the back of his sweater.


    Colin turned his head and pecked me on the cheek, his eyes filled with tender affection.


    But I couldn’t immerse myself in his love as I did in his bedroom just now. The words Felix kept


    repeating made me feel terrified. It was always anticipating that he might do


    something bad.


    After spending some time with Colin in the kitchen, I went out again and no one in the living room.


    I took a peek and saw that Felix’s bedroom door was closed.


    Saw that there was


    With nothing else to do, I opened the door to the terrace leading to the small garden. I wanted to have


    some fresh air, but I heard movement in the garden on my side of the house.


    The outdoor temperature during winter was low, and many flowers had withered. It allowed me to see


    into my small garden.


    Felix was holding a small shovel and setting up a support frame for a chrysanthemum that looked


    dead.


    Still wearing his thick ck hoodie, he was squatting on the ground and focusing on his work


    The gloominess he emanated from the living room earlier seemed to have dissipated with the wind.


    Now, squatting there and meticulously taking care of the chrysanthemum was the Felix I knew before


    turning 18.


    He was so clean, so pure, and so pleasing to the eye.
