"Shanshan, long time no see." William nodded politely, speaking in somewhat broken Chinese.
In contrast to William's courteous demeanor, Ji Shanshan appeared unusually ecstatic. She suddenly jumped up, wrapped her arms tightly around the man's neck, her eyes sparkling with pure joy.
"William, I've been waiting for you forever! I'm so happy!"
William kept his gentle smile, quietly placing her hands down as he said calmly, "Let's go."
"Alright."
Ji Shanshan couldn't take her eyes off him, nodding dazedly.
After walking a couple of steps, she suddenly remembered she was holding a bouquet of roses. She quickly stuffed them into William's arms: "For you—99 roses!"
"Thank you!"
William accepted the flowers with a warm smile.
With his tall and robust figure holding the large bouquet of roses, he naturally attracted the attention of passersby.
