Left with no time to respond, Li Yuan watched the girl on the wall take the jump. He pushed his wheelchair forward and stretched out his arms.
Falling right into his arms, Shen Xi coiled her tender arms around his neck and asked amid chuckles, "Brother, am I heavy?"
Li Yuan had the fright of his life. His heart was in his mouth. Pulling a long face, he deflected the question and chided her through clenched teeth, "Do you know how dangerous that was? What if you fall?"
Had he not reacted on time and caught her as she came jumping from a high place…
"But you'll catch me." Looking ignorant and innocent, Shen Xi reflected complete trust in her tone.
Li Yuan's heart melted as he looked into the girl's bright eyes and her unreserved trust in him. No longer with the heart to lecture her, he sighed helplessly. "Don't do that again. Let me know if you want to get down."
She was a good girl. Shen Xi bobbed her head and answered sweetly, "Got it."
