Chapter 864 - 905: Joy and Sorrow
"Brother Li, catch this!" Michelle suddenly bent down, grabbed a handful of snow, and threw it at Li Yifei.
Li Yifei was staring in a daze, but when Michelle raised her hand, his instinct as a skilled fighter was to dodge, but as he started to move, he let himself be hit by Michelle’s snowball.
"Alright, you dared to hit me, see how I’ll deal with you!" Li Yifei grabbed some snow and lunged at Michelle with ferocity.
Michelle giggled and ran away, dodging Li Yifei’s snowball.
Snowball fights are a game often enjoyed by children, but adults can play too, if not for the heavy pressures of life that have robbed many of the zest for such simple joys.
Today, with Michelle, Li Yifei let his guard down. He couldn’t exactly define his feelings for Michelle, but he couldn’t bear to see her unhappy at that moment. He owed her too much already, a little joy wasn’t enough to satisfy her, he felt uneasy about it himself.
The two of them ran around in the snow, throwing snowballs. Michelle was as joyful as a little girl, her laughter resounding through the small park amidst the fluttering snowflakes—a truly beautiful scene.
"Ouch!" Michelle stepped on a hidden rock beneath the snow, slipped, and lost her balance. She flailed her arms as she fell backward, but soon felt herself supported by a pair of arms, her feet lifted off the ground, spinning twice in the air before landing steadily.
Michelle was really panicked when she initially fell, but felt no panic as she spun in the air; the experience made her feel as if she was flying, longing for the spinning to never end, to always continue.
When her feet finally touched the ground, Michelle was still savoring that sensation with her eyes closed, unwilling to move or open her eyes.
