Nian Ueno

Ji Dongxun gave a faint "hmm" and sat on the sofa, remaining motionless.

Snowflakes were falling outside the window, and the world had already turned into a vast expanse of white.

Jiang Weixi stared at his back, deeply suspecting that he was planning to sit on the sofa all night.

"Mr. Ji..." she called him softly, her voice sweet and gentle.

Ji Dongxun's ears twitched, and a strange sense of familiarity arose in his heart. He suddenly turned around to look.

She was wrapped in a snow-white quilt, with only her eyes showing, the corners of her eyes upturned, and her eyes sparkling.

She had never shown such an expression in front of her grandmother; she was so obedient, like a little rabbit.

Now, I'm like a little fox.

A sly glint appeared in Jiang Weixi's eyes. She deliberately raised her voice, speaking in an affected, strained tone, "Mr. Ji, you were sitting in the spot where I was watching the snow, so... wouldn't that mean we've seen the same snowfall?"

Ji Dongxun paused for a moment, then immediately got up and left the sofa where she had just been sitting.

He walked towards the bedside and looked down at her.

Jiang Weixi slid into the blanket, her dark pupils gleaming.

She teased him on purpose: "I've heard that people who watch the first snow of winter together will stay together forever~"

"Mr. Ji, do you think it's romantic?"

Ji Dongxun stood beside her, his eyelids half-closed, glancing at her. After a long while, he slowly uttered two words: "Immature."

Jiang Weixi chuckled twice: "Haha..."

The girl's sweet laughter suddenly struck his eardrums, causing Ji Dongxun's back to tense up noticeably for a moment.

He glanced at his watch, his expression nonchalant. "I'll wait a few more minutes, then I'll go out after Grandma falls asleep."

Jiang Weixi blinked: "But... wasn't the door locked?"

"I have a way to open it."

"Oh." A hint of disappointment flashed across Jiang Weixi's eyes.

Ji Dongxun glanced at her again and warned her, "This is just a transaction between us. Don't get any other ideas."

Jiang Weixi pouted, her lively and charming smile vanished, and she gave a curt "Oh," before turning her back to him forcefully.

"Mr. Ji, could you please turn off the lights when you leave?"

She was a little angry.

This cold and boring man.

snort!

Ji Dongxun glanced at the back of her head, then looked away and expressionlessly turned off the light for her.

in the dark.

Jiang Weixi closed her eyes, unable to fall asleep, and listened intently to his movements.

after awhile.

She heard very light footsteps, and the sound of a door opening and closing.

He went out.

Jiang Weixi turned over, sighed, and fell asleep.

The nanny woke her up at six o'clock the next morning.

"Miss Jiang, the old lady said to wake you up for breakfast and then take you back to school."

Jiang Weixi rubbed her eyes and got out of bed, lifting the blanket to look at her ankles.

The bruising has subsided a lot, but there's still some swelling.

She stepped out of bed in her slippers and took a couple of steps forward. It still hurt, but it was much better than yesterday.

The nanny pushed in a wheelchair: "Miss Jiang, you can sit here."

With the help of the nanny, Jiang Weixi went to the bathroom to wash up, then went downstairs, sat at the dining table, and ate breakfast.

Grandma Ji and Ji Dongxun were both there.

Grandma Ji saw that Jiang Weixi was so sleepy she could barely keep her eyes open, so she patted her hand with a smile and asked, "Xixi, how did you sleep last night?"

Jiang Weixi covered her mouth and yawned: "It's fine... I just didn't get enough sleep, I'm so sleepy."

Grandma Ji thought the two of them had slept in the same room last night, and a look of satisfaction appeared in her eyes.

"Xiao Xun, take Xi Xi back to school later."

Ji Dongxun lowered his head and ate his breakfast, giving a faint "hmm".

Jiang Weixi glanced at the man sitting beside her but didn't say anything.

She took a spoonful of the seafood porridge, and the delicious taste instantly captivated her taste buds.

"Grandma, this porridge is so delicious!"

"You like this drink, I'll have the nanny write it down."

The Ji family's breakfast was very lavish. Grandma Ji had the servants prepare a lot of food, including both Western and Chinese dishes.

Crystal shrimp dumplings, crab roe siu mai, braised chicken feet with black bean sauce, scrambled eggs with shrimp, scallion oil noodles, croissants, strawberry jam toast, fresh milk, coffee, fruit platter...

Jiang Weixi ate until her belly was round and full.

This is the first time I've ever eaten breakfast this full.

It was clear that Grandma Ji genuinely thought she was too thin and wanted to fatten her up, so she kept piling food onto her plate.

It was hard to refuse such hospitality.

Jiang Weixi had no choice but to eat them all.

It snowed all night, covering the world with a thick layer of snow.

Pushing open the door, a chill swept over her, and the early winter wind brushed against her face, reddening her cheeks in just a moment.

Jiang Weixi, sitting in a wheelchair, was pushed by a maid into Ji Dongxun's car.

Ji Dongxun pulled out the side table, set up his computer, and started playing the morning news.

Jiang Weixi closed her eyes to catch up on sleep. The news broadcast around her had a hypnotic effect, and she fell asleep within minutes.

Ji Dongxun was listening intently to today's international political and economic developments when he suddenly felt a weight on his shoulder. He turned his head and saw a fuzzy head on top of his head.

Jiang Weixi unknowingly leaned against his shoulder, breathing evenly.

Ji Dongxun frowned and helped her sit upright against the back of the chair.

A moment later, she leaned against him again and rested her head on his shoulder.

He was promoted to the position.

She slumped to the side.

Ji Dongxun narrowed his eyes.

Was she doing it on purpose?

His gaze was fixed on her rosy face, where the girl was sleeping soundly, seemingly undressed.

A hint of helplessness flashed across Ji Dongxun's eyes as he let her lean against him.

The car was parked at the entrance of R University.

Xiao Zhou glanced at the two people leaning against each other in the rearview mirror and inexplicably felt that they were quite a couple. He secretly started shipping them in his mind.

Xiao Zhou called out, "Sir, we've arrived."

Ji Dongxun coughed lightly and nudged the girl beside him: "Wake up."

Jiang Weixi opened her eyes, still somewhat dazed, and said in a muffled voice, "Ugh...so sleepy..."

She was still leaning on his shoulder, her breath tickling his neck.

Ji Dongxun felt extremely uncomfortable. Goosebumps suddenly rose on his arms, and his hair stood on end. He instinctively resisted this close and intimate behavior.

He endured the discomfort and pushed Jiang Weixi hard.

Jiang Weixi was stunned by the push, and suddenly realized that she had just leaned on his shoulder.

He reacted so strongly!

I remembered that there was a clause in his agreement that stipulated no physical contact.

Remembering his strong reactions the previous times, Jiang Weixi wondered if there was something wrong with him.

She instinctively apologized, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to."

Ji Dongxun took a deep breath and said coldly, "We're here. Get down."

"Oh." She nodded, picked up her things, and got out of the car.

After she left, Ji Dongxun took out a wet wipe and carefully wiped his hands, then wiped the skin on his neck, and also wiped the clothes on his shoulders.

Xiao Zhou shook his head.

Forget it.

This pairing... doesn't seem so appealing.

It seems his "Dongwei CP" relationship ended badly.

Jiang Weixi limped toward the school gate.

Most of the snow on the school grounds has been cleared.

She carefully walked along the clean path towards the teaching building.

It seemed like someone was following her.

Looking back, there were indeed people there.

Ji Xingzhou.

He stood three meters behind her, hands in his pockets, and walked a few steps to her, his gaze falling down to her feet.

What happened to your foot?
