Due to the large crowd, the cake had long been surrounded three layers deep. Yun Xi had originally dragged Ye Lingran with her to squeeze in, but just moments after they got in, a tall figure suddenly barged in, causing Ye Lingran to stagger and be pushed out of the crowd.
The high heels she was wearing twisted to the side, and her ankle throbbing with waves of pain. Losing her balance, she fell backward. As Ye Lingran widened her eyes in surprise and reached out to grab something, a warm, strong hand firmly supported her waist, and she fell into a solid embrace, which helped her regain her balance.
Ye Lingran was stunned for a moment and instinctively looked back to see a handsome, gentle face reflected in her beautiful apricot eyes, her heart rippling with waves like a pebble dropped in calm water that wouldn't settle for a long time.
Clearly, when she came this morning, she was determined not to let her mind wander about this matter, yet now her heart was fluttering.
