"He Ji, it's been a long time." Shen Weiwei walked gracefully towards He Ji from the airport exit.

She has fair and delicate skin, long wavy black hair, and wears a denim outfit. The denim mini-skirt reveals her fair and long legs, and her whole look is full of fashion sense. Both the style and the color are particularly eye-catching.

"Long time no see," He Ji replied casually. Shen Weiwei was no longer the little girl who used to cry and follow him around in his memory.

The driver got out of the car and carried Shen Weiwei's suitcase into the vehicle. She went straight to the back seat and sat down next to He Ji.

He immediately joked, "He Ji, you're still as cold as ever, just like when you were a child."

"If I hadn't shamelessly pestered you to pick me up, I think you might have forgotten about this childhood sweetheart!"

He Ji turned his head and glanced at her lightly, saying nonchalantly, "I'll take you home first."

"drive."

The car started slowly, and He Ji turned his head to look out the window. A face flashed into his mind.

"You still don't talk much, He Ji. I bet you don't have a girlfriend." Shen Wei's smile was bright, like the summer sun.

Her eyes sparkled as she looked at He Ji and continued, "I'm not going to talk to you anymore, you big ice block. Take me around sometime. You've been back for so long, you should show me some hospitality."

"Okay." He Ji said in a flat tone, and the two chatted casually until they arrived at the Shen family villa.

With a kind and gentle expression, Mother Shen thanked He Ji for bringing her daughter back and insisted that he have a meal before leaving.

He Ji politely declined and turned to leave. Shen Weiwei stared blankly at He Ji's departing figure.

With a smile on her face, Mother Shen slowly said, "Weiwei, you'd better keep it up!"

Shen Wei was slightly stunned, and replied helplessly, "Mom, you know what kind of person He Ji is. Let's see how things go!"

Mother Shen smiled indulgently, "You~"

Let's go eat first!

"Yes, Mom, I miss you so much..." she said, taking her hand and the two walked into the room.

He Ji returned to his villa shortly afterward. As he went upstairs, he glanced at Li Baobei's door, which was always tightly closed.

As Jiang De walked towards his room, he saw He Ji downstairs and quickly said, "Young Master, Miss Li is reading in the back garden!"

"Oh~" He Ji responded indifferently and continued walking into his room. He walked to the window and looked out.

At this moment, Li Baobei was reading a book carefully. She was wearing a pure white tank top, which accentuated her perfect curves.

Her slender arms gleamed white in the dappled sunlight, her long, jade-like legs were folded together, and she was curled up on the sofa by the garden, exuding a lazy and elegant temperament.

The plaster cast on one of her feet looked a bit out of place, but it didn't detract from her beauty.

A gentle breeze blew through her soft hair, causing it to flutter lightly. In that instant, time seemed to stand still, with only the wind and her hair conversing, telling a silent story.

He Ji was somewhat engrossed in watching, but he still managed to pull himself out of his reverie, walked to the dressing room, changed into casual clothes, and went downstairs.

Li Baobei sensed someone walking towards her and unconsciously raised her head.

He Ji was wearing a khaki plain cotton T-shirt. His legs were long and slender, paired with white straight-leg pants, showing off his well-defined muscles. He looked both comfortable and powerful, like a work of art from every angle.

He's like a stunningly beautiful, sunny Japanese boy who stepped right out of an anime.

She couldn't help but think to herself, "He Ji is just too good-looking."

Li Baobei felt her eyes were being dazzled and couldn't look away for a long time.

Only when He Ji sat down on a chair a meter away from her did she slowly withdraw her gaze, a faint blush appearing on her face, and gently place her feet on the ground.

"I thought you were busy today and I wouldn't see you!" Li Baobei said calmly, with a bright smile on her face.

"Not busy," He Ji replied softly, looking directly at her. Li Baobei felt her breathing quicken.

She looked up and met his dark eyes. Time seemed to stand still, and Li Baobei felt as if she could hear her own heartbeat.

She hurriedly looked away and subconsciously said, "It's a bit hot, I'll go back to my room first."

After saying that, she picked up her cane and was about to leave. Because she was in such a hurry, she stood up straight with her injured foot. Pain instantly enveloped her whole body, and she fell towards He Ji's position without warning.

"It's over!"

Seeing her series of actions, He Ji's smile deepened, and even the corners of his eyes and brows couldn't help but reveal a smile.

The moment the little girl in front of him fell straight down, the smile on his face vanished instantly. He quickly stood up and held her in his arms.

Li Baobei looked up at him with lingering fear, unable to discern the emotion in his eyes. "Are you worried?"

She stood up from his embrace. "Thank you, I didn't mean to, I..."

"Let's go upstairs first!" After saying that, he picked her up and carried her into the house.

...

Time flies, and the day finally came for Li Baobei to have her cast removed.

She woke up excitedly early in the morning, eagerly awaiting the doctor's arrival, her heart pounding with excitement.

The moment the cast was removed, Li Baobei felt a sense of relief throughout the world.

The feeling is indescribable; in a word: "Awesome!"

She tried to get up and walk around, but felt her injured foot was weak and she was still limping when she walked.

But it's a thousand times better than having a cast on. "It takes a hundred days to recover from a broken bone! Take it slow."
