The so-called post-dinner stroll was a simple concept for Shen Li, merely like old times when they would walk hand in hand in the garden. Of course, now that they were living on an island, swapping the garden for the seaside was also a possibility.
"Miss Shen, the sea breeze is strong at night, please put on a coat." The maid brought over a long coat.
"Thank you," Shen Li said with a smile, taking the coat and putting it on.
The island had a spring-like climate year-round, but the evenings in spring were still a bit cool. A walk by the sea required a bit more warmth.
"Let's go," Huo Siyu said, taking Shen Li's hand.
Huo Siyu had a large and warm hand, but when Shen Li looked up at Huo Siyu, suddenly she felt a bit cold.
It wasn't her hand that was cold, it was her heart.
The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.
She always wondered what she meant to Huo Siyu, what exactly was the nature of their relationship...
In reality... she was overthinking it.
