While holding Lin Xiaoxiao's hand, Han Qiushi spoke a long string of words, so much so that it didn't seem like Han Qiushi's usual persona.
It's important to know that Han Qiushi is not aggressive in front of others; he's gentle and mild-mannered, but he rarely opens up to people and doesn't talk much. In addition, his tall and burly figure makes him seem distant.
But today, Han Qiushi seemed to have endless things to say. Lin Xiaoxiao looked at Han Qiushi and thought to herself that she had witnessed a different side of him.
Han Qiushi talks too much, and people feel that he is a bit nagging.
"What's wrong?"
Han Qiushi talked for a long time, but when he felt Lin Xiaoxiao's gaze, he finally stopped talking. He nervously touched his face and asked, "What's wrong? Is there something on my face? Or... do you think I'm being too long-winded?"
Lin Xiaoxiao shook her head: "No, I just wanted to know how long you could talk?"
"Also, your face looks really clean today, you look quite handsome." When asked this, Lin Xiaoxiao blurted out her thoughts without thinking.
Lin Xiaoxiao was annoyed. Was she being a little infatuated? She was just staring at his face.
Han Qiushi: "......"
Aaaaaahh ...
Lin Xiaoxiao said he's handsome and she likes looking at him!!!
She wasn't disliked by Lin Xiaoxiao; on the contrary, she was appreciated by her.
Han Qiushi pursed his lips, straightened his back, looked at Lin Xiaoxiao with burning eyes, and said very seriously, "Xiaoxiao, let's really be together."
Lin Xiaoxiao: "..." She roughly guessed what Han Qiushi wanted to say, but she was still stunned when she heard this.
"Can you be my boyfriend?"
"Let's start dating?" Han Qiushi said with unusual seriousness, leaving Lin Xiaoxiao completely bewildered by his actions.
After spending this time together, I vaguely sensed that Han Qiushi might have some feelings for me, because Han Qiushi treated me differently from others.
No, it's a huge difference; she could feel it.
Actually, she also had feelings for Han Qiushi, and I even liked Han Qiushi.
However, it wasn't to the point where Han Qiushi was indispensable. Lin Xiaoxiao blinked and asked, "What if I don't agree?"
Han Qiushi immediately tensed up, his hands clenched tightly at his sides, his whole body tense, but the seriousness in his eyes remained unchanged.
"It's okay if you disagree. After all, I said it too suddenly, and I need time to think about it."
"But I want you to give me the chance to pursue you."
“I know I’m much older than you, and I would have a great advantage if we were together, but I promise I will definitely treat you very well.”
"You don't need to worry about my age. I will exercise well to maintain my health and figure, as well as my appearance."
"As for appearance, I will learn from you women and try to match your age in terms of appearance in the future."
"I will absolutely not let anyone say that you have the chance to marry an old bachelor."
"I... I've had feelings for you before, but I don't know how to express it. I'm just happy when I think about spending my future with you."
"I can't be happy living with someone else."
Lin Xiaoxiao looked up at Han Qiushi intently, watching his expression change from nervousness, determination, and happiness, to a little bit of distress and melancholy.
Lin Xiaoxiao could sense Han Qiushi's sincerity from the changes in his expression as he spoke.
Not only Han Qiushi was affected, but Lin Xiaoxiao was also moved.
This man is undoubtedly outstanding; his looks, physique, and character are all excellent.
The main thing is that she's really good to herself. She's not the type to fall in love at first sight. The environment and people's hearts in the post-apocalyptic world are much more complex than in this era, so it's not so easy to fall in love.
But she couldn't resist the man's meticulous care, his equal strength, and his usual gentleness and restraint, which gradually eroded her.
It made her feel that dating this man might not be so bad.
Lin Xiaoxiao's ears turned red involuntarily. She lowered her head, pursed her lips, and said in a low voice, "Okay."
...
The air was completely still.
Lin Xiaoxiao thought he hadn't heard her clearly, so she looked up and repeated, "Okay! Let's make this a real-life charade!"
Han Qiushi stared into Lin Xiaoxiao's eyes, and upon hearing this, he gripped her hand tightly, as if his blood was boiling and surging. His eyebrows and eyes relaxed, and his mouth stretched into a wide grin like a child who had just received candy, filled with joy.
He happily said, "You're my girlfriend now, we're together!"
Lin Xiaoxiao smiled and nodded: "Yes, I, Lin Xiaoxiao, am your girlfriend, Han Qiushi."
Upon receiving Lin Xiaoxiao's affirmative reply, Han Qiushi was overcome with excitement. He suddenly half-squatted down, picked up Lin Xiaoxiao, and began to spin her around.
Spin around!
Lin Xiaoxiao was a little dizzy from this sudden action. She grabbed Han Qiushi's shoulders tightly and showed a surprised and happy smile.
Han Qiushi spun Lin Xiaoxiao around three times in his arms until he felt a fist on his chest. He then stopped, and the two of them smiled at each other, their eyes seeing only each other.
He held Lin Xiaoxiao tightly, as if he possessed some priceless treasure. At first, he held her carefully, but soon his grip tightened, and he became very forceful and domineering.
Lin Xiaoxiao was taken aback by Han Qiushi's change of heart, and then wrapped her arms around his strong waist.
Han Qiushi's excited voice rang in Lin Xiaoxiao's ears, "Xiaoxiao, this is such a good thing, I'll tell my family right away. Once I return to my unit, I'll apply for marriage."
He's now a regimental commander and can accompany the army, so even if he leaves Wangjia Village, he can still see Lin Xiaoxiao every day.
Lin Xiaoxiao won't have to work so hard here anymore.
