Chapter 707 - Footprint (3)

Collin pulled Roxy behind him, "Let me see."

"Can you fix it?" Roxy asked, frowning.

Collin did not answer, but took the flashlight from her to shine, and asked, "Where is the toolbox?"

"Is there a toolbox here?" Roxy looked back as if thinking about where to store the toolbox.

Collin sighed, stood up, and walked to the bottom of the cabinet near the door of the sink, opened the bottom door, took out a small toolbox from the inside, opened it, and took out the white tape and a wrench. Then he handed the flashlight to Roxy, "Hold the flashlight to illuminate this place."

When Collin was a college student, whenever he was too lazy to go home, he stayed in the dormitory. The conditions of the dormitory were good, but there were always some minor problems in the male dormitory. Sometimes the lights were broken, or the air conditioner was broken, or the toilet was blocked. At that time, he was busy dating his girlfriend and almost didn't care about things in his dormitory. But he knew that the parents of a roommate were plumbers, so this roommate could solve these minor problems. Later, the water pipe in his girlfriend's dormitory broke, and Collin volunteered to repair it. Before repair, he consulted his roommate and did not hesitate to break the water pipe in his dormitory to repair it...

He did a lot of stupid things when he was in college. He thought he was energetic at that time, but now he doesn't have that energy at all.

Collin's figure was rarely seen in the profession of the doctor. When he rolled his sleeves to his forearm and took the wrench, his muscles were visible.

Roxy stared at him for a long while, her gaze shifted from his forearm to his outline. He seemed to be slightly short-sighted, and occasionally wore gold-framed glasses, but he did not wear them today. It is said that people who wore glasses had dull eyes, but his eyes were not. His focused gaze suddenly moved to the side from the water pipe, and those dark eyes seemed to look straight into Roxy's heart.

"It's crooked," he said.

Roxy made an "Oh" sound, picked up the flashlight, and shone it in again.

Collin looked at her for a moment before saying, "When I'm done with my work, there will be plenty of time for you to appreciate."

He turned his head so quickly that he did not see Roxy's smile.

"Alright." Collin stood up, turned on the tap, turned it off, and said to her, "Try it over there and check if there is hot water."

"Alright." Roxy walked to the bathroom and turned on the shower. After a while, the water spilled down. She tested the water with her hand. "It's still cold."

Collin stepped into the bathroom with a frown. The bathroom was very small. As soon as he came in, Roxy immediately stepped back involuntarily and pressed her body against the wall.

Collin stretched out his hand to test the temperature of the water. The water was slowly heating up. He turned his head to look at Roxy, "It's hot water now."

"Oh, thank you." Roxy turned off the water and intended to go out, but Collin blocked her. She looked at him, with some other emotions in her hollow eyes because she was accidentally drenched by water.

Collin asked, "Why don't you ask your boyfriend for help?"

Roxy didn't seem to understand, "Eh?"

"The man you brought back last Sunday, isn't he your boyfriend?" Collin asked with a look of enlightenment, "Oh, is he the same as me?"

"Ah, him..." Roxy lowered her head and thought for a moment before she looked up and said, "He is."

The air seemed to freeze.

Collin grabbed her arm, his eyes agitated with uncontrolled anger, "The rental contract clearly stated that no strangers are allowed to stay here!"

"Sorry, I will pay attention next time," she said lightly.

Collin wanted to tear open her heart to see what was inside. He came all the way anxiously, but he got such a sentence when he rushed here. People used to say that he had no heart, but he ran into a woman who was even more heartless.

"Call me later if you have that need." Collin took a long time to calm down, then took a deep breath, stared at her, and asked, "How was it?"

Roxy looked up at him, "Each takes what he needs?"

Collin turned on the shower and let the water wash the tops of their heads. He stared at her lips moisturized by the water, and his voice cracked, "Yes, each takes what he needs."

"Alright." Roxy readily agreed.

"Let's make three rules. In the future, you can't be with others." Collin held his arm above her head, "You can't bring anyone else here. You can't fall in love with others."

Roxy looked up at him, "What if you get married?"

Collin stared at her face for a long time before he said, "It will end after marriage."

"Alright."

"There's another one." Collin touched her lips with his thumb, "Here."

Roxy understood but did not agree immediately.

They had stood under the water for a long time, and the warm water slid down each other's skin. In the small space, they cuddled closely. Roxy hesitated for a moment, put her arm around his neck, and kissed him.

Collin could hear the beating of his heart. He looked down at Roxy's face. Her expression was very calm, and her hollow eyes were stained with inexplicable emotions, like thick ink, which made people could not see clearly.

Before dawn, Collin saw that there was a missed call from Jaquan on his phone. He looked at the time.. It was already half past one. He called back with a hoarse voice, "What's the matter with you?"
