"What?"
Gu Chen looked at her earnestly and raised his hand to tidy the stray hairs blocking her eyes.
"Aunt Bai said that when two people are together, they should treat it seriously, confess their love, and have flowers. You don't seem to have done any of that, let alone said you like me or anything like that."
Shen Xian spoke seriously, yet somehow there was an amusingly pitiful look about her.
Gu Chen looked at the wronged Shen Xian, feeling a sudden urge to laugh, not because her words were funny, but because she looked exceptionally adorable at the moment, like an innocent child.
He pursed his lips, reining in the smile that was about to break free, and sincerely replied, "I thought you didn't care about those formalities."
All along, he had felt that their meeting, her saving his life, all seemed predestined. Falling in love with her was like a gift of light given to him in the dark times of his life.
