“Hey, can you tellexactly what happened?” | asked one of the guys, Aaron, while biting into my skewer and shifting closer to him.
“Cback here. Don’t talk while you eat.” Colin reached out to pullback to my seat.
Colin didn’t eat much, spending most of the tlooking after me. He handedtissues and sliced the pizza for me-taking care ofin every way.
“No, | want to hear Colin's romantic tales. Con, tell me, Aaron. I'm all ears.” | pouted, getting Aaron to spill the beans. Colin shota glance of indulgence but didn’t say anything more.
“All right, lettell you about Colt’s charm. He's a really popular guy. There is hardly anyone in the whole university who doesn’t know him. Let's not talk about the past. Just last year, there was a junior girl who was quite decent-looking. She was a bit shorter than you, and not as pretty. But she was okay.

“One day, when queuing for food in the cafeteria, she accidentally bumped into Colt. Without any hesitation, Colt kicked her out, quite literally. She couldn't get up for a long time. It happened right at the entrance of the cafeteria, in front of the students and lecturers. She lost all her pride that day.” During the summer break, while | was recovering from my injuries, | read quite a few romance s, especially those with domineering male leads.
Thinking of the common plot devices used, it seemed like the girl had deliberately bumped into Colin so that she could fall into his arms or something of the sort. She must have been enticed by his good looks.
It wasn’t her fault, though. If it were me, | would have probably fallen for a handsand powerful guy like him too.
“What happened next? Was there a hero to the rescue?” | leaned forward again, and so did Queenie.
This taround, Colin physically maneuveredaway while Flynn went to sit directly between Queenie and Aaron.
Aaron watched Flynn and Queenie’s interactions with a disdainful sneer. Then, he turned around and continued his story with a mischievous smile, “Who dares to play the hero when Colt is around? That girl got up with a red face and left.
“After that, she would cry whenever she saw Colt. Since then, everyone secretly gave Colt a nickname.” One Kick Tearjerker. Sounds good, right? It's quite befitting, haha!” +16 BONUS “And what happened later on?” “Nothing. That's the story.” Aaron shrugged, indicating that the story ended with no further developments.
| was not satisfied with the story and grumbled, “How could nothing have sparked between them?” Colin had always been the perfect child every family wanted. Even Mom had used him to set an example formany times, askingto learn from him and strive to be a useful person who contributed to society and mankind.
your mind.
| thought it was normal to have such an excellent example stuck in your From the way | saw it, the girl must have intentionally tested Colin, thinking that he wouldn't do anything to her in public even if he didn’t accept her.
But who knew that Colin would be cold and straightforward enough to use violence? Thinking about it now, | felt quite sorry for the girl.

“Ask one more question, and you won't get any spicy food for a week Colin looked at me with a chilling eXplession, his warning making those around him shiver. | grinned at him in response, showing that | wasn't afraid of him.
He forcefully pushed a plate of pork ribs toward me, slicing the meat into pieces. I ate hh piece as he put them on my plate one by one.
Though his words sounded stern, his actions were quite gentle. While eating, | concluded that although he had kicked someone publicly, the girl must have had sflaw that failed to evoke any emotional response from Colin.
