Brakes screeching on the road.
"Ms. Shen, why are you here?" Situ Zhangyou received a call from Boss to pick up a certain somebody and bring her home.
The tiny-framed girl appeared rather petite in a seated position. God knows what she was looking at, but she was like a tiny firecracker, letting a warm glow around her amid the snow.
Shen Xi lifted her chin to find Situ Zhangyou coming her way. She sent a test message. "Brother, I'm heading home."
Li Yuan replied, "Sure. Stay safe."
He stared at the screen after typing the message, left with a feeling of emptiness as her footsteps faded into the distance.
It was only when the car engine rumbled that he wheeled himself over and opened the door to watch the car drove out of sight. The glint in his eyes receded bit by bit.
Uncle Li waited while he sat by the door for a long time before approaching, "Young Master, Ms. Shen is already gone. You should come in."
