Chapter 14,2
Around 8:30 am, Felix called me, completely waking me up from my drowsiness.
“What’s the matter?” It was rare for him to call me.
“Luna, are you dating Matthew?”
He seemed to have just finished some strenuous exercise. His voice sounded breathy and urgent.
“It’s none of your business.”
“Let’s not talk about whether it’s my business or not. Take a look at the college’s
Facebook account. You’ve become famous.”
What!
I immediately opened the college’s Facebook account and saw the mess.
At the top was a photo taken in front of the apartment door yesterday afternoon. The protagonists were Matthew and I, and the medium was the bouquet of roses
that already had nothing to do with me.
The photographer had chosen a good angle while taking the photo. Matthew was handing me the roses affectionately while I was biting my lip and looking at him shyly. We were looking at each other lovingly like a couple.
If I hadn’t experienced that moment myself, I would’ve thought the scene was so beautiful that it would make others envious.
“Oh dear, the prince charming, Matt, is no longer single!”
“Ah, I want to cry! Why is Matt in love? Isn’t he not close to women? Has he been possessed?”
“Shut up. Let me cry for a while.”
“That woman is so beautiful. She deserves Matt.”
“That’s right. They’re a perfect match. I want to be their shipper! Bless you, beautiful woman! We support you!”
“Who is that beauty? Does anyone know? I want to see her.”

“Have you seen it? Luna, you’ve only been at Jesselton College for a few days. Are you so intolerable to loneliness? You’ve made yourself to the forefront. Do you think that’s an accomplishment?”
What Felix said was as harsh as ever.
But I was no longer 18. I wouldn’t keep silent when he insulted me.
I wouldn’t tolerate him anymore.
Who did he think he was? Five years ago, he scolded me for being useless. And five years later, he still wanted to interfere in my life! What right did he have to criticize my affairs? He was nothing!
I also had a temper.
“It’s my business whether I can endure loneliness or not. It has nothing to do with you whether I’m at the forefront. Just go about your own business. Don’t
bother me. You’re so annoying.”
After I finished speaking, I hung up the phone. I didn’t want to hear his voice,
which sounded so unpleasant.
He called me several more times. At first, I was willing to cut the calls, but then I simply let the phone vibrate and ignored it.
When the phone finally stopped ringing, Felix started bombarding me on WhatsApp instead.
I soon deleted all the dozen voice messages he sent without listening to them to make myself feel better.
There was no need to keep irrelevant people and things around, especially people who didn’t treat me well. But I didn’t block his WhatsApp since I had known him for many years.
After being disturbed by Felix for no reason, I wasn’t in a good mood, so I called
Colin.

I longed for Colin to scold him and vent my anger.
But strangely, Colin didn’t answer the call. He must be busy. After all, he was the pillar of support and elite among Lincoln University’s freshmen. It was normal that he was busy.
I became worried when I remembered that he would even forget to eat when he was busy. I quickly messaged him, reminding him that no matter how busy or tired he was and who he was helping, he should never sacrifice his health.
I also reminded him to eat on time and drink warm water when the weather turned cold in the north.
