Upon entering the second floor of the reading area, Shen Shi cast a quick look around him. Then, at last, in a corner, he spotted the figure he had been yearning for.
It was exactly two o'clock in the afternoon.
The sunlight gleamed brightly onto the young girl outside the floor-to-ceiling window. Her hair, draped softly over her shoulders, shimmered faintly with a coffee-like hue under the sunlight. Her cheeks were delicately fair and tender, graced with a slight blush. Clear eyes modestly downcast, with tiny flashes of sunlight dancing between her lengthy lashes. Her side profile appeared plump and round, irresistibly cute.
Shen Shi found himself holding his breath, feeling as if such scenes were already a common occurrence in his dreams. Every time he saw her, a strange familiarity stirred within him.
The young girl near the window seemed to have noticed Shen Shi's gaze, hesitated a moment, then lifted her head and turned her eyes towards him.
