Chapter 40 The Autumn Festival
Chapter 40 The Autumn Festival
Time passed slowly.
The small news about Lily were quickly suppressed by something else. This matter was soon put
behind because of the new rumors. In addition, as a freshman, in the upsurge of community and new
students, no one ever paid attention to it anymore.
Then both Lily and Quincy didn't pay much attention to it. Only when they met with Clair occasionally,
they would be glared at by her. But Quincy's eyes were much fiercer than hers. Every time, Quincy
would stare back at them. As time went by, Clair also knew to avoid them.
As time went by, James became busier. Within a week, he was able to have dinner with Lily for four
days at most. On weekend, Lily either went shopping with Quincy, or stayed at home, read books, or
watched movies and played games on the third floor. It was not boring at all.
The weather gradually turned cool and began to march into the camp of autumn.
It was time to wear sweater. Lily turned over the closet while thinking of the clothes and jewelry sent by
someone yesterday.
Lily had chosen a set of sweater. She wore a shirt with long sleeves inside and a beige sweater with
high collar outside. The loose pattern made Lily more petite. Lily originally wore a black pencil skirt and
a white knee length skirt. However, as Lily didn't want to wear a skirt. Thus, she selected a pair of black
pencil trousers from the wardrobe. After looking at the shoe cabinet, she took out a pair of black flat
leather shoes.
Autumn came. Lily's hair fell over her shoulder. The soft and black hair made her look gentle.
The autumn sun had a warm smell. The leaves had begun to turn yellow quietly and fall, and when they
stepped on the leaves, there would be a slight sound.
In a class free afternoon, Lily held the arms of the Quincy. Like a couple, they walked on a road
covered with fallen leaves. Quincy was wearing a light colored sweater, a black coat and a black Martin
boots. Quincy looked tall and elegant, walking together with Lily. While they were talking happily, the
two of them laughed from time to time, which made people around them envy.
There was a very large lake in A University. In the summer, many people went for a walk along the
lake. Autumn was an amazing season. Many people sat on the lakeside or laid on the lawn to bask in
the sunshine at noon.
Lily and Quincy sat on the bench by the lake, enjoying the warmth of the sun.
"By the way, Lillias, do you really not join the community?" Quincy asked.
"I wanted to take part in it before, but I found it troublesome to meet a new friend. Besides, it's enough
for me to have you. "
"Haha. That's the fact. "I took part in the basketball, and there will be many competitions in a while.
There will be training I need to participate in, and I can't play with you for a long time. "Quincy replied,
holding her head with her hands against her knees, looking upset.
"It doesn't matter. I don't have anything else to do. I can accompany you during your training and
competition. You can play basketball and I will cheer you up. We also did that before, didn't we? " Lily
smiled. Anyway, she had been there before.
"Alas! Every time you go there, those men will follow you. As if they haven't seen any girl before, they This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
are all staring at you. They even asked me in private if I and you are really a couple. They also asked
me for your phone number. Alas, damn it. " It vexed Quincy to think of those rough members.
"Well... Then next time, I'll hide in a corner and wait for you. I don't want anyone to see me. " Lily joked.
"No, no, you have to stay in my sight, then I can rest assured." Said Quincy with a serious face.
"Okay, I will do as you say." Lily gently smiled and opened her eyes.
"Yes, and what's more, will you ever stay at school for Christmas?" Quincy turned his head and looked
at Lily.
"Christmas? When? "
"It seems that it will be held next week. There will be a party at school, and many social organizations
also hold single parties. My roommate told me that there are only single parties held every year. It's
much more interesting than the parties organized by the school, "
"Really? It seems that we have no other activities except the party." After Lily reflected on it, she
realized that there was only a party before.
"There are other activities, but we didn't attend. What about this party? Will you go with us? "
Then Lily remembered that James had been waiting for her at home late last time when she attended a
party. Thinking for a while, she decided to let it go. "I'm afraid I can't make it. You know, I'll be home
after class."
"Well, it's just that you can't see the handsome guy, though they are not as handsome as me." said
Quincy, as she remembered that there would be cars to pick Lily up every day.
"It's enough for me that I can see you." Then, Lily put her arms around Quincy and rested her head on
Quincy's shoulder.
"Then how about you Christmas, staying at home?" Quincy thought that Lily might be alone for the
holidays. She felt a little uncomfortable and felt that Lily was so lonely.
'I think she's going to have dinner with Lara, watch TV, take shower and fall sleep. She's not different
from her usual self.' Lily had told Quincy about Lara and Bill, sometimes she talked about her daily life.
"Will it be too boring?" Quincy was worried.
"No, I will not. You know, they are very kind to me." Lily smiled sweetly.
Quincy nodded.
After bathing in the sun for a while, Lily went back to the classroom with Quincy, preparing for the
afternoon's class. ...
It was class time. Lily who was always an attentive person during the class unexpectedly lost in class.
As a matter of fact, Christmas was always on her mind. She knew she couldn't go to a party with
Quincy because she couldn't let James worry about her. But she felt a little lonely when she just came
back home.
In addition, she had heard from her classmates that they would prepare gifts for Christmas. She
thought that she had to prepare a gift for both Quincy and James. There were only two weeks left. She
didn't know what to choose and whether there was enough time.
With so many things weighing on her mind, she didn't listen to teacher's words in the afternoon.
After school, sending Quincy back to the dormitory, Lily asked the driver to pick her up.
She was still thinking about this question all the way.
When Lily went back home, Lara had prepared dinner. Knowing that James was busy today and didn't
come back, Lily began to eat dinner absent-minded.
He had dinner, bathed, read a book and slept.
When she was thinking about this issue, she was always absent-minded and looked dispirited.
It would be great if James didn't have so much work to do. Lily hoped he could spare some time to
have a meal with her. After all, they were family now. She would feel disappointed if he didn't have any
personal time to spend with her.
