Xiao Cheng understood.
Bai Lu was tempting him to say those words.
I want him to be like this even in his dreams.
What she said is not true.
Seeing the light in Xiao Cheng's eyes gradually fade, Bai Lu quickly said, "I'm serious!"
"I didn't lie to you. The answer is what I wanted, and the agreement was a decision I made after careful consideration. It wasn't an agreement I made just because I wanted an answer."
The last glimmer of light in Xiao Cheng's eyes froze as he stared intently at Bai Lu, not blinking for a moment.
Bai Lu raised three fingers: "I swear..."
Xiao Cheng took her hand and placed it over his heart, looking into the earnestness in her eyes.
His reply to her was also earnest: "Here, my heart beats for you every moment."
Bai Lu: "!!!"
I don't know how to describe my current feelings. It's like my brain has been hit by fireworks, and it's buzzing.
That sentence keeps echoing in my mind.
My heart was struck by a great bell, and the Sanskrit inscriptions all contained the same phrase, filling my small heart into a great one.
It filled every corner, big and small, of my heart.
"But you haven't answered yet."
Xiao Cheng: "..."
Will people twenty years from now all like to get to the bottom of things and fixate on just one answer?
Bai Lu tugged at his sleeve: "Hurry up."
She can be really stubborn sometimes.
It's frustrating.
Her clear, pure eyes, full of expectation, shone like stars, captivating all who looked at them.
I couldn't bear to refuse even a second longer.
Despite his disobedience at this moment, Xiao Cheng knew that he was doomed for life.
Bai Lu was still waiting for an answer when suddenly the back of her head was grabbed and she was pulled closer to him. His cool breath enveloped her and lingered on her lips, tender and affectionate.
They kissed for a very long time.
In her dizzy, hazy state due to lack of oxygen, she finally heard those words.
It gently touched my heart through my ears.
He said, "I love you."
Bai Lu was certain, absolutely certain, and absolutely certain that she had truly heard Xiao Cheng's answer—three words that were even more beautiful than four words—before she fell asleep.
He said it.
Her confession received a response.
I like your response to... I love you.
...
Xiao Wei saw his older brother looking at the calendar early in the morning.
They read very carefully and flipped through the pages very quickly, as if they were counting down the days.
I don't know if I feel the same way.
In short, the older brother turned page after page, showing no impatience, but rather growing happier.
Xiao Wei rubbed his eyes to make sure he wasn't seeing things.
The older brother was flipping through the calendar while a smile was spreading across his face, becoming more and more pronounced.
Then it becomes a straight line.
The reason, it seems, is that he noticed he was watching him and then stabbed him in the back.
Xiao Wei scratched his head and added sensibly, "Good morning, big brother."
His sister-in-law told him that if he saw his older brother in the morning, he should greet him with a sweet smiley face and say "Good morning." No matter what stupid thing he did, his older brother would not be angry.
Even if they get angry, they'll take it back.
His face was frozen, so he couldn't smile and could only greet people politely.
Xiao Cheng glanced indifferently at the messy hair in front of him, then looked away with disdain and hummed in response.
Let's continue looking at the calendar.
Xiao Wei was ecstatic about his sister-in-law's uncanny foresight; today was another day of admiring her!
It was also a day when they took advantage of his kindness: "What are you looking at, brother?"
"calendar."
"Isn't your sister-in-law still two days away from starting school?"
"Um."
"Then why did you turn so many pages, brother? Is there some particularly important date coming up?"
"Good days".
"What auspicious day is it?"
Xiao Cheng raised his eyes slightly and glanced over indifferently: "You talked a lot today."
Xiao Wei: "..."
None of them are even a little more than one percent of my sister-in-law's.
Is that also called being talkative?
Xiao Wei scratched his messy hair, obediently went to brush his teeth and wash his face, and planned to make breakfast to make up for his sin of peeping and talking too much.
"What would you like for breakfast today, brother and sister-in-law?"
"I bought it."
Xiao Wei turned around in surprise.
Unsurprisingly, I saw my older brother still flipping through the calendar, and of course, it was my older brother who was saying the words.
Oh... Big brother has already bought breakfast.
It must be wontons.
Because my sister-in-law likes to eat wontons.
Bai Lu had a strange yet heartwarming dream last night. She dreamt that her parents were preparing her dowry, that she was getting married, and that a man was walking towards her from the end of the red carpet, backlit by the sun.
A halo surrounded his face, obscuring his features; only his bright red traditional Chinese wedding attire was visible…
Good morning, sister-in-law.
A greeting from a young flower of the motherland, a thought that pierces the white dew and evokes a fleeting image of a man's silhouette.
There were two bowls of steaming wontons on the table.
The little flower's pretty and cute face still had tiny water droplets on it, and her big eyes were clear and bright, as if they had been washed by spring water, clearly indicating that she had just finished washing up.
Where's your brother?
"I went to the city on business."
Xiao Wei held his chopsticks, rested his chin on his hand, and waited for his sister-in-law, not forgetting to explain: "My brother said he has already eaten breakfast."
Bai Lu nodded: "You eat first, I'm going to wash my face."
Xiao Cheng went to the city on business; he was probably going to talk to Liu Zhenguo about cooperation.
Everything is ready, except for the east wind.
After breakfast, Bailu was cutting the lychee branches in the yard, and Xiaowei helped wash the lychees.
"Sister-in-law, are the dried lychees delicious?"
Yesterday I brought back a lot of fruit from Xiaojia Village, mostly lychees, weighing two or three hundred catties.
They were all ripe, bright red lychees. The old lady said that if they couldn't finish them, they would make dried lychees and store them to eat slowly.
Xiao Wei had never eaten dried lychees before and was very curious.
Bai Lu smiled and said, "Of course it's delicious."
