"That's the best."
Shi Keke said, taking off the shoe stuck in the sewer cover, intending to pull out the stuck heel and put the shoe back on, but as soon as she tried, the heel snapped with a "click."
After burying herself in a pit, she now experienced what it meant for troubles to come one after another.
She raised her eyebrow, casually tossed the ruined shoe aside, and took off the other shoe as well, standing barefoot.
"Let's go."
Shi Keke was very free-spirited, completely at ease even without shoes on.
She didn't have the temper of a young lady, nor the refinement expected of a well-bred girl.
Shi Mei looked at her barefoot with furrowed brows, her skin fair and delicate.
He suddenly recalled a time long ago when she insisted he take her to the countryside to fish.
Back then, she was twelve, just starting seventh grade, and much more childish compared to her peers.
