Chapter 199 His Light

Colin finished speaking and took a chair to sit in front of Faye while she watched.

Colin's thin lips were smirking. He took out the carved wooden sculpture from his pocket and handed it to Faye.

Faye took it stiffly, and her eyes flickered as she looked at the nice wooden carving in her hand.

Just when Faye was staring at the wood carving, she suddenly noticed a small line of words on the bottom of the wood carving. 'Love welcomes all difficulties, and loves all difficulties.'

Faye's hands trembled and she looked at Colin.

Colin's smile deepened. "Did I do a good job?"

Faye, "How long have you liked me?"

Colin looked directly at Faye and said calmly, "Eleven years, three months, and seven days."

Faye's hand that was holding the wooden carving tightened. "Why do you like me?"

Colin's charming eyes no longer had the mockery and mischief he had in the past, and his expression was serious and focused. "In this world, there has never been a love that happens for no reason, while some people are greedy for money, some are lecherous."

Faye inhaled, "And what about you?"

Colin smiled suddenly. "I'm chasing my light."

Faye was stunned and she was at a loss for words.

Faye wanted to ask Colin how she became his light.

However, as soon as the words reached the tip of her tongue, she did not know how to start the conversation.

When Colin saw that Faye was not saying anything, he reached out and caressed her hair lovingly. He said helplessly, "What should I do now? I never wanted to tell you the past."

Faye turned to look at Colin. She tried to make her expression look natural. "Why?"

Colin replied in a deep voice, "I was worried you'll be touched and I was also worried that you won't be."

Faye looked dazedly at Colin.

Colin mocked, "What? Do you think I'm so strong that there's nothing I can't conquer?"

Faye was in a trance and she was thinking about how to answer when she heard Colin saying, "I want to take you as my own, but I never dared to expect it to happen."

Faye had lived for twenty-six years, and she believed that life had polished all her sensibility into rationality.

Yet, at this moment, she suddenly felt that her deep-seated sensibility had begun to sprout.

Seeing the unease in Faye's eyes, Colin said, "Are you still thinking about the pocket money?" Faye, "I'm sorry."

Colin smiled and asked, "Why are you apologizing?"

Faye pressed her lips and said truthfully, "I feel guilty."

Colin scoffed softly, "For what? Do you feel guilty for taking my money but not thanking me? Or do you feel guilty that I've loved you for so long and you can't give me an answer?" Faye lowered her eyes. "All of that."

Colin leaned forward, rested his elbows on his knees, and folded his hands and fingers together naturally, pretending to be relieved, "It's all of my own accord, why are you feeling guilty?" Faye's head was in a mess right now. She did not know what to say, so she could only stay silent.

As he looked at her, Colin sighed, reached out, and grabbed Faye's arm to pull her into his arms. "I was the one who's being punished and you're the judge, but why do you seem more pitiful than me?" Faye buried her face in Colin's chest and said nothing.

Colin lowered his head and stroked her hair. Then, he said in a hoarse voice, "I've prepared ten thousand ways to approach you, but reopening old wounds is not one of them."

As Colin said that, his Adam's apple bobbed. "I don't want my kindness to you to become a burden on you."

Faye grasped Colin's shirt with her hand that was hanging by her side.

Colin noticed her subtle movement and laughed softly. "This is quite emotional. Do you want to cry to satisfy the vanity of someone who has had a crush on you for so long?" Faye was holding back the tears in her eyes, but when she heard what Colin said, they escaped from her eyes.

Faye's tears were a burst dam, but she was crying so silently.

Colin put his chin on Faye's head and held her tightly. "My little girl has grown up and she even learned to hold herself back when she's crying."
