Chapter 158 The Beginning of Winter



Her light-colored jeans perfectly showcased her straight legs, and a teddy bear scarf was wrapped around her neck.

Xiao Li ran over with small, quick steps, looked up at Jiang Cheng, and a hint of shyness appeared on her beautiful face. She exhaled a breath of white steam in the cold winter air, which was the effect she had as soon as she spoke.

"How is it? Is this outfit okay?" she asked expectantly.
