Su Zhihan never asked Gu Lingyang when he started liking her.

During that rainstorm, she was held hostage by a stalker fan. Gu Lingyang found her and proposed to her directly. The two got together without any transition.

The timing was perfect this time.

"Ah Yang, I have a question for you. When did you start liking me?" Su Zhihan asked playfully.

She still has the same curly hair as before, a hairstyle that Su Zhihan loves.

Gu Lingyang didn't comment on Su Zhihan's hairstyle. As long as Su Zhihan liked it, his opinion didn't matter. He was happy just looking at Su Zhihan like this, and he could accept it even if Su Zhihan was bald.

As long as it's Su Zhihan, he'll do anything for her. Being with her, Gu Lingyang has absolutely no desire to change her.

Gu Lingyang lowered his head and smiled slightly. If you looked closely, you would notice that his ears were actually a little red.

"Why didn't you tell me? Tell me now! Looking back now, I was really shocked when you proposed to me that day. I never expected this to be what awaited me."

When Su Zhihan saw Gu Lingyang kneel down on one knee, her mind went blank. All other unpleasant feelings disappeared, and even the frightening sounds of thunder and waves seemed to become pleasant.

"You really want to know? Then tell me, when did you start liking me?"

"There was one time..." Su Zhihan realized what she was doing and stopped herself in time, "Oh, you actually tried to trick me into talking. Now I'm asking you a question!"

Su Zhihan pretended to be angry: "If you don't tell me, we'll have a cold war for a day! From now on, I won't say a single word to you."

Gu Lingyang chuckled and picked up a piece of Su Zhihan's favorite food with his chopsticks.

"I'll talk to you when we finish eating and have tea. If we don't eat the meat in this hot pot soon, it'll get too tough."

When it comes to food, delicious food is naturally the most important.

After the two finished eating, Gu Lingyang had tea served.

Su Zhihan listened to Gu Lingyang speak while sipping tea and enjoying some snacks.

“It’s been a long time. Once, you and some friends were performing in a play. You performed so well that time. When I passed by, I suddenly felt that I could do it too. That’s how I embarked on the path of the entertainment industry. My parents are very open-minded and naturally support me. There are other people who gossip, but I just like acting. That’s my original intention. What do other people’s opinions have to do with me?”

Su Zhihan's eyes widened, and she stammered, "So, so you entered the entertainment industry because of me?"

"You could say that. Maybe if I hadn't seen it that time, I might never have thought about acting. Or, even if I did enter the entertainment industry one day, it might be a long time from now."

Did you fall in love with me back then?

"That's one way to put it. I thought to myself, 'I wish I could get to know this girl.'"

"And then what?"

"Later, because you and my sister-in-law are best friends, and Shen Yuan and I are childhood friends, we were destined to meet. I recognized you the moment I saw you. You are the girl from back then. You have grown up, grown up proportionally. I would not mistake you."

Now it was Su Zhihan's turn to blush.

It turns out their meeting was also destined; she will no longer envy others.

"Then why do you always tease me and call me 'little kid'?"

Gu Lingyang reached out and pinched Su Zhihan's cheek.

She endured a lot of hardship while filming after entering the entertainment industry. Her baby fat faded considerably, her facial contours became clearer, and she became even more beautiful.

"You're several years younger than me, so it's not too much to call you 'little friend,' is it? You'll always be my little friend."

Gu Lingyang countered Su Zhihan's question: "And you, when did you start liking me?"

He knew that Su Zhihan liked him without realizing it, and he knew she was still young. At that time, he was not sure how long Su Zhihan's feelings would last.

Gu Lingyang didn't rush to confess his feelings, but he was wondering if Su Zhihan could distinguish between liking an idol and genuine affection.

Later, when she disappeared, Gu Lingyang panicked.

The hour before finding Su Zhihan felt like torture in hell. Once he finally found her, Gu Lingyang didn't care about anything else. As long as Su Zhihan didn't reject him and didn't push him away, he would never let go of her hand again.

"I saw you on TV. I had a lot of crushes back then," Su Zhihan said, seeing that Gu Lingyang's expression wasn't displeased, she felt relieved and continued. Men shouldn't be that petty.

"Then I saw you, and I was immediately drawn to you. I wondered how long I could be your idol. Ningning knew about that during that time; I talked about you to her all the time, and I bet she was tired of hearing it. I never imagined I would meet you in real life. The moment I met you, I realized that you were even more attractive than you are on TV."

But for a while, I felt inferior. You were a star, and I was just someone gazing at the stars. So, I wanted to become a star too. That time you asked me to play that supporting role, I suddenly realized that I actually still enjoy acting. You saw my previous stage plays, which actually had sequels, and they all said I acted terribly.

Gu Lingyang patted Su Zhihan's head: "Because you are too outstanding, that's why people are jealous of you."

"Well, but I'm not so outstanding that people can't be jealous of me. Their jealousy of me means I can still be outstanding, until they can never catch up. Because they can't do it themselves, this is the only way they can hurt me. Luckily, I met you. You knew it was me back then. That's why you said you trusted my acting skills."

"Hanhan, I'll tell you a secret of mine too, do you want to hear it?"

"Yes, I do."

"Actually, I didn't plan to take the role in the drama where you played the supporting character Xiao Jun. I later saw your comment on Weibo, saying that you really hoped I would play the male lead in this drama. Your comment got a lot of likes, and that's how I saw it and decided to take the role."

Su Zhihan was truly excited now.

She wrapped her arms around Gu Lingyang's neck and blurted out, "Gu Lingyang, I love you to death!"

At that time, she thought it was such a coincidence that all her wishes came true. It turned out that it was not some kind of destiny, but rather that things were done by human effort.

Gu Lingyang was also expressing his love in his own way, and getting closer to her in his own way.

While the two were deeply in love, a news item about whether Su Zhihan and Gu Lingyang were together quietly climbed to the top of the trending searches online.

Gu Lingyang lowered his head and kissed Su Zhihan's lips when his phone rang.
