NovelEnglishChapter 398 The restaurant's service was excellent. The dishes were served quickly, and Colin personally set things up for me. He even tasted the soup himself before offering it to me.
I was sitting there like a fool, waiting for him to feed me..
At first, I didn't really think much of it. After all, he had always been like this, taking care ofmeticulously. After becoming my boyfriend, his actions beceven more considerate.

He understood my meaning and deftly put the piece of fish that had just been picked clean of bones into his mouth.
I knew how heartbroken Queenie was, yet I still made her unhappy. I realized my own selfishness.
"I'm sorry, Queenie. I-I...” I apologized softly, berating myself for being heartless.
Queenie poked at her steak a few times before lifting her head. Her nose was red, and tears were pooling in her eyes. She forced a smile to comfort me. “It's alright. Let's eat. The food's good." "Okay, let's eat. After this, we'll go to my place. You can stay with me. We can have a good chat.
"No, there's no need for that." Queenie waved her hand and shook her head frantically, looking anxious. “I don't want to intrude. I'll just stay at the hotel." When Colin heard that I wanted Queenie to stay with me, his expression turned as dark as ink. He warnedwith a snarl.
As I tried to figure out how to get him to stay in the dormitory, he received a phone call. I took a peek and saw that it was Professor King.
Colin answered the call respectfully, listening to the person on the other end. The more he listened, the tighter his brows knitted together. His already dark expression becstormy.

Something must have happened to make him this unhappy.
He put away his phone and pinched the bridge of his nose before reluctantly saying, "There's an academic exchange at school, and the professor wantsto lead the team. Let Queenie stay with you. It's perfect for you two to keep each other company." "Where's this exchange? Why didn't I know about it?" Colin impatiently patted my head and said unhappily, "I just heard about it too." "How long will you be gone? Summer vacation's coming soon," I pouted while saying that unwillingly.
I had planned to have a great tduring summer vacation, but now it seemed like those plans would go1 down the drain. Why did the professor choose Colin when there were so many young teachers in school? This was the cons of having an older boyfriend. We could never be in sync with each other. It was really annoying I was full of resentment.
