Together Now

Lu Yubai rubbed her red wrist gently. "Why? You don't believe my words? Do you think I'm lying to you?"

Su Yi shook her head, blushing. In a weak voice, she said, "I thought I was dreaming!"

"Silly girl." Lu Yubai let out a low laugh. His long, narrow eyes were full of joy, and his voice was magnetic and pleasant. "I'm not young anymore. I want to date someone with the premise of marriage. Are you willing to do that?"

Su Yi nodded vigorously. "I want to date someone whom I will marry too!"

"I'm much older than you. Do your parents mind?"

"No! My parents are very open-minded!"

"I might not know how to coax you."

"I don't know how to coax people either. We can learn slowly."

"My family's situation is a little complicated, but as Mrs. Lu, there are many things you'll have to face. Will you be afraid?"

"No."

"Then, Ms. Su, let me ask you again. Are you willing to be my girlfriend?"

"Yes, I'm willing!"
