Chapter 218 | learned the guitar for many years after that. | even bumped into the teacher who tutoredbefore. After listening toplay, he said that | was gifted and that | was on the spar with many professional players.
This was all thanks to Felix’s tutoring.
After Thanksgiving in the year | turned 18, | stopped playing the guitar. Whenever | started playing it, | would remember how Felix had taughtwhile sitting on the stool on the balcony. My heart would ache terribly.
Five years had passed since then. When | saw Felix standing in the sunlight at this moment, | couldn’t help but fall into deep thought.
“Let's go.” He walked ahead while carrying the guitar, and | followed behind him.
When the beautiful woman living next door saw us, she cheekily whistled and winked at me. “You guys are even wearing matching outfits. Looks like it’s going well.” I was stunned.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt was then | realized Felix and | were both wearing white tracksuits and white sports shoes.
No wonder the woman would misunderstand. | was way too careless.
| only changed into these because it was convenient. | didn’t expect him to wear white too.
It was just a coincidence, and we didn’t plan on matching at all. However, | doubted anyone would believe it if we explained that it wasn’t planned.
“It’s a misunderstanding. Just a coincidence,” | explained dryly.
My neighbor shota meaningful look and brushed pastwith a smirk.
| felt like | would make things worse if | explained, so | didn’t say anything else.
Felix suddenly stopped. He turned around to look atwith pursed lips.
| was used to his aloof attitude toward me. We weren't that close anyway. There was no need for him to be friendly to me.
However, someone might misunderstand if we were dressed like this. Things spread fast in colleges, no matter if they were good or bad. Everyone would catch wind of gossip, and it would be all over the forums.
1/2 +35 BONUS | didn’t want to be misunderstood or gossiped about with him. | wanted to head back and change.
Felix said unhappily, “When did you start caring about other people’s thoughts? We're already tight on time. Do you still want to waste more time? It’s just clothes. Do you really need to go back and change?” I hated his choice of words.
But he had a point. It was just a coincidence that we were both wearing white. If one looked closely, we were wearing completely different patterns. It was too far of a stretch to say that we were wearing matching outfits.
There was really no need to go back and change.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm| still needed to draw at night, so | didn’t have much time. | shouldn't waste my ton something so minor.
Felix successfully convincednot to change.
It took us almost 20 minutes to reach the rehearsal venue.
Neither of us spoke on the way there. For sreason, | thought that Felix was in a good mood. There seemed to be a smile on his lips.
It was a tiered classroom that was no longer in use. A few groups of people were already there before us. Sof them sang, danced, and even performed storytelling. Thus, it was quite noisy.
“Let’s go to the rooftop. It's quieter there.” Felix took his guitar and waited forat the rooftop’s door.
After closing the rooftop door, it was indeed much quieter. The air and sunlight outside were pleasant, so sitting here was comfortable. Most importantly, the rooftop was enclosed, allowing us to close the doors and windows facing outside. This would prevent us from disturbing people outside.
The rooftop was spacious, with two rows of benches facing each other and several pots of unknown flowers scattered around. As it was way past their blooming period, only a few leaves remained.
Felix adjusted the guitar strings and began to play, his expression serene.
| closed my eyes and listened, softly humming along with the music.
Thad passed quickly, taking away our youth and memories. However, it couldn't take away my serene outlook on life.
