Chapter 418 Sister, What Are We Now?
Lin Shili was startled and hummed, a little surprised by Gu Nan's kiss.
But she enjoyed it very much. Her eyes quickly turned red. She half-closed her eyes, raised her chin and gave Gu Nan a gentle deep kiss.
Until Gu Nan suddenly left his lips and tightened the hand pressing on the back of his head, causing a slight pain in his scalp due to the tearing sensation.
"Don't let your imagination run wild."
Lin Shili gasped softly, came back to his senses, and quickly gritted his teeth, not allowing himself to make any more sounds. He just looked at Gu Nan who was looking down at him with his eyes with red at the corners.
"I didn't." Lin Shili retorted weakly.
Gu Nan lowered his head and kissed him again, then directly exposed his mistake, "I don't believe it. What were you thinking just now?"
Lin Shili pursed her lips and remained silent, as if silently resisting Gu Nan's questioning. However, after a long stalemate, she was the first to give in. "Sister, what are we now?"
He stared at Gu Nan intently, not missing a single change in her expression.
Gu Nan was stunned, and couldn't help but remember that Lin Jingchun had asked her the same question.
——Sister, what is our relationship now?
——Boyfriend or girlfriend?
—Really? You can't go back on your word.
They were also on the bed at that time, and Lin Jingchun looked at her with the same tearful and shy eyes.
In the past, Gu Nan could easily make sweet promises to her lover. The reason was that she knew her situation and ending after traveling through the book. In fact, she was not the kind of person who would make vows on impulse.
But Lin Shili is different. He is more anxious and insecure than Lin Jingchun.
No matter how loudly you shout slogans, what you are afraid of in your heart is that you will be confused and have no status.
Gu Nan considered carefully and said, "The last few times we confirmed our relationship, it was too casual, so this time I hope to have a formal ceremony."
Lin Shili stared at Gu Nan intently, his eyes, distinctly black and white, so clear they seemed to be able to see into one's heart. "What kind of ceremony do you want, sister?"
"I'm not sure, maybe it's a bouquet of flowers, maybe a thoughtful dinner, or maybe just a formal word on a suitable occasion."
Anyway, it is definitely not at this moment, in the dim night, with a tired body, driven by hormones, saying sweet words that are irresponsible to both parties.
"I need a ritual to tell myself that this is the real world and I have to take our relationship seriously."
Gu Nan paused, sat up, and continued, "You too. I hope we can have a good start and a good ending."
At least even if we can't go on together in the end, we can part ways amicably and have a clear conscience.
Lin Shili also sat up, hugged Gu Nan again, and gently rested his head on her neck.
What surprised him more was Gu Nan's seriousness than the sweet promise.
In his impression, Gu Nan was like a tree, like the wind, strong, waving, and free. She walked towards the light and the rain, always ahead of him, and he could never catch up with her.
But tonight, Gu Nan said that she was carefully considering the relationship between the two of them, thinking about when and where to plant the roots of love deeply in the soil in order to produce the most delicious fruits.
She was trying to give him a genuine love.
The hesitation dissipated, and he suddenly felt that he could reach Gu Nan.
He clung to Gu Nan's shoulders like a kitten clinging to its favorite cat climbing frame.
The diving platform supported him, he leaned on his favorite tree, and his sharp claws tightly hooked the hemp rope. No one could separate them unless he wanted to.
"I understand." Lin Shili said.
Gu Nan hummed, and one hand couldn't help but touch the back of Lin Shili's head again.
His hair was thick and smooth, and felt very good to touch, especially when she put her fingers in his hair and held him. That moment of realization was incredibly beautiful.
Gu Nan grabbed his chin and pulled him off his shoulder. "Now it's time to talk about other things. For example, why did you come to see me so late?"
After several months of testing, Gu Nan had already confirmed that there were two people chatting with him, and the one who didn't like to use emoticons was Lin Shili.
That is to say, Lin Shili was able to use his mobile phone to send her messages as early as New Year's Eve, but it was not until the end of August that Lin Qin proposed to meet her at Lian'an University.
Not only did he not go looking for her, he also asked Lin Qin to help keep it a secret from her.
When Lin Shili heard this, the bitterness in his heart disappeared instantly. Feeling guilty, he quickly slid to his knees and said, "Sister, I'm sorry. I'm just scared."
"What are you afraid of? Can I still hit you?"
Lin Shili raised his head, putting on a pitiful and coy attitude, "I hadn't recovered well at that time and couldn't even stand up. I was afraid that my sister would dislike me."
Gu Nan smiled faintly, "Before I disliked you, did you also dislike yourself?"
Lin Shili thought that was different. Gu Nan only slept for 2 years, but he slept for a full 5 years. His muscles were severely atrophied and he looked like a nobody when he woke up. Even after 18 months of recovery, he still looked like a nobody.
His recovery progress was slow, the training process was difficult, and his mood was terrible. Lin Qin's frequent visits to accompany him were sometimes a bit overwhelming.
How dare he gamble on Gu Nan's feelings for him with such an ugly and useless body.
But it was obviously not possible to say that at this time. Gu Nan had him in her heart, and she must have been very sad during that time. He was in the wrong.
"I'm sorry." Lin Shili apologized again, holding Gu Nan's hand and placing a series of flattering and small kisses on her palm.
Admit mistakes quickly, have a good attitude, and most importantly, be extenuating circumstances.
They are the only two people in the world who have been awakened by the system. Their similar experiences have destined them to understand the unspeakable pain and endurance without the need for extra words.
The annoying hide-and-seek game of the past few months was easily put to rest with Lin Shili's repeated apologies.
Besides that, Gu Nan had another very curious question, "What is your relationship with Professor Yi?"
Lin Shili knew what Gu Nan was going to ask and said directly, "It doesn't matter. If you must say, it's probably because we're on the same boat."
Initially, Lin Shili was not selected for the awakening plan, but Lin Qin asked around and found a scalper in the scientific research community, and bought a spot at a high price.
Lin Shili sneaked into the Tianguang Research Center with a fake identity and spent a year in a world with extremely low matching degree.
It was not until Gu Nan woke up that Yi Jingrong asked his assistant to check the prototype of the character and discovered that there was such a big flaw in the project.
Leaving aside the process of how the assistant discovered and contacted Lin Qin, Yi Jingrong and the researcher discussed and believed that the male protagonist mentioned by Gu Nan was most likely Lin Shili who was taking advantage of the situation. After explaining the pros and cons and treatment plan to Lin Qin, Lin Qin proposed to go to Qingcheng to meet Gu Nan.
This is why Lin Qin lost his composure in front of Gu Nan.
He tried his best to send his brother to the research center, thinking that was his hope of waking up.
In fact, it only pushed my brother into an abyss more terrifying than sleeping.
