Chapter 104: Sweeping Through the Snack Street
The boy on the left was wearing a white shirt, his gentle smile like a spring breeze—warm, clean, and soothing.
The boy on the right, however, had his hands casually stuffed in his pockets, sporting a standard poker face. His thin lips were pressed into a straight line that, despite the coldness, looked rather attractive.
