Chapter 455


    It was summer vacation. There was no one in the college, so it was quiet.


    The sun was up. It was so hot that I began to sweat. I had lived in the north for several years and was


    ustomed to the northern climate.


    Jinovy was colder than Southsville but not as pleasant as the north. When the sun rose, I was covered


    in sweat. I felt annoyed because my entire body was sticky.


    I was a Southerner. However, at moments like this, I missed the cool breeze from the north, which


    could blow from any direction at any time. That was refreshing.


    I hurried down the path with the paperwork, eager to return to the apartment and enjoy the air


    conditioner to dry my sticky sweat. Unexpectedly, I met Winston by the fountain.


    “Hello, Luna. What a coincidence.” He was polite and greeted me with a smile.


    “Hello, Winston.” I smiled back, wondering why he didn’t go home for the summer


    vacation. However, I didn’t know him well. I didn’t want to get closer to him either. So, I had no reason


    to ask such a question. I wouldn’t care about his response anyway.


    “Why did youe to college on such a hot day? Are you here for the project you mentioned earlier?”


    He smiled tenderly, with an affinity that drew me close to him.


    This kind of temperament was rare in a boy in his 20s.


    Winston was always smiling and appeared to have boundless energy. He was like the sun in the


    morning–warm but not scorching, bright but not dazzling. When I got along with Kim, I felt rxed and


    I nodded helplessly. “I don’t want toe either. It’s boiling today. But since I signed a contract, I have


    to work hard. I can’t disgrace Professor King or ruin my reputation.”


    “Would you like to rx? I can take you to a good ce. You’ll like it.”


    Winston was standing under the sun. His forehead was covered with sweat, and his eyes were


    sparkling. However, his smile made him look like the wolf who abducted Little Red Riding Hood. I


    couldn’t see what he had in mind.

    I was eager to go back and review the paperwork. I wasn’t sure when I’d get through them all. If the


    discrepancy wasrge, everything I had done before would have to be adjusted. If I were to start over,


    all of my previous ns and drafts would be for naught. I felt depressed and uneasy.

    Artworks and creatives were like my children. As their mother, I felt it was a pity to give them


    up


    and was unwilling to deprive them of a chance of life.


    I had been surrounded by negativitytely. I felt a bit depressed. Indeed, I required a good mood to


    generate creative ideas. I needed to rx.


    Winston had made an invitation. I hesitated on whether I should go with him. I then recalled Colin’s


    reminders and his jealous look.


    As his girlfriend, I wanted to offer him a sense of security, so I decided to reject Winston. As for


    rxation, I could go anywhere. There were numerous ways to rx. I didn’t have to join


    him.


    I would avoid anything that could lead to misunderstandings between Colin and me.


    Winston saw my hesitation andughed heartily. He ced his hands on his waist, showing his vigor.


    “What’s wrong, Lulu? I just seeded in something and overthink it, won’t you?”


    want to share it with you. Don’t


    He appeared to see through my thoughts and teased me, “Does your boyfriend not allow you to be


    close to other boys? Is he worried that a handsome guy like me will take you away


    “Don’t call me Lulu. Call me Luna.” I corrected him firmly.


    I felt so embarrassed that he revealed my true thoughts.


    Annoyed, I pped his arm hard with the paperwork and watched his theatrical yelp. You’re so


    narcissistic to call yourself a handsome guy. Professor King gave me new information. I just want to go


    back and read it. Don’t get me wrong.”
