When we arrived at the restaurant, Felix and sother guys smoked outside while the women and | entered the private room first.
| chose an airy place to sit down. As we still needed to wait for Felix and the others, | took out my phone to kill time. However, | was stunned.

| couldn’t help but sweat profoundly.

Before | could say that, Hannah's bright voice called out to me, “Luna, get off the phone and start ordering. I'm going to starve to death.” Colin paused for a moment. “It’s good to hear that you're safe. It's getting a bit late. Don’t eat too much, and remember to tellwhen you get back.” Before | could bid him goodbye, the call was hung up. It left behind the cold and indifferent beeps of the dial tone.

Actually, | really wanted to tell her to give up as Felix had a girlfriend. Unfortunately, | wasn’t close to her, and she didn’t make it obvious that she wanted to pursue Felix.
| couldn't just tell her that Felix was taken. It would make her seem like she was eyeing Felix, and it would easily tarnish her reputation.
We were studying in the scollege, after all. Felix was also a charming and talented guy who attracted women anywhere he went. Almost everyone in the school knew him.

“I can head hby myself. Don’t worry about it.” | wasn’t used to him sendingback.
