"I like it." Jason smiled slightly and put down the tag in his hand. "Sister, I will buy you a thousand or ten thousand sweaters in the future. You will wear them as much as you like."
"A thousand or ten thousand? How would I even have a chance to wear them all?" Grace couldn't help laughing. “I don’t need such things. Come here. Please. Let me measure the size of your hand."
As she spoke, she took a leather ruler and took his hand to make some measurements.
He frowned. He could feel that her hand was very cold when their skin touched. “Hey, don’t do this.”
“What?”
“Don’t knit, your hands are too cold," he said.
"It's okay. Hey, stay still. If you keep moving your hand, the measurements will be no good," she muttered before taking his hand and once again adjusting the positions of his fingers. "We're in the room right now, so it can't get that cold. If it was in the early morning outside or when I was sweeping the road at night, now that's cold. Even if I wore gloves during those times, my hands would get so cold that I could barely feel them."
Jason's eyes seemed to be covered by a thin layer of fog, which covered up the guilt in his eyes. Actually... he could have easily made her stay away from this kind of life and prevented her from doing this kind of hard work.
Perhaps in the beginning, he only felt that it was interesting, so he stayed by her side and called her “sister." But now, ever since he started to have different feelings for her and planned to bring her under his wing, there was no need for her to do this hard work again.
"It's done!” she proclaimed.
After finishing the measurements on his hand, she lowered her head and started knitting again. However, because her fingers had been injured in the past, her movements were not as agile as they could be. The knitting speed was also slower as a result.
It… hurt him to see her so injured.
Injuries that on some level were due to him.
”Sister, today is the day of Sean's engagement to Lily." He suddenly said, "On the way back, I saw that the street where their engagement party's venue was at was still blocked. Many people ran over to see."
