Before Gu Bai could react, Su Tian pinned him against the tree.
He mustered his courage, turned around, and pinned Su Tian against the tree they had just been standing in.
Su Tian looked up at him and said, "Little brother, it's been so long, you've grown taller again?"
Gu Bai smiled but didn't say anything.
This was the first time Su Tian had ever seen Gu Bai smile in all the time she had known him.
"You should smile more. This is the first time I've seen you smile. You look so beautiful when you smile."
At this moment, Gu Bai took a deep breath, looked at Su Tian affectionately, and whispered, "Sister, it's been so long, how have you been?"
Su Tian was stunned when she heard his deep voice. After hesitating for a moment, she asked him directly, "You're not mute?"
Gu Bai was stunned when he heard this. Was he mute? How come he didn't know that himself?
"Sister, why do you say that? When did I become mute?"
"So every time we're together, you don't say a word? You haven't uttered a single one."
Gu Bai thought about it and realized that it was his own problem.
Then, he leaned down, got close to Su Tian, and said softly, "That's because I'm shy when I see you, so shy that I can't even speak."
"Then why weren't you shy this time? And you said so much."
“Because…” Gu Bai took another deep breath and mustered his courage to say again, “Because I don’t want to wait anymore, I don’t want to lose you.”
Sister, I like you. Can you like me too? Is that okay?
Su Tian's heart skipped a beat when she heard such a humble request.
"Wait a minute, little brother, how old are you? I don't even know your name?"
After asking, Su Tian felt a little guilty, realizing she didn't even know her younger brother's name.
Gu Bai felt a little sad when he heard this, because his sister didn't even know his name.
But it doesn't matter. From this moment on, he will make her firmly engrave his name in her heart.
"Sister, my name is Gu Bai, do you remember that? Also, I was fifteen years old when I first met you."
I've known you for two years now, and I'm seventeen this year. Do you have a boyfriend/girlfriend? If not, how about me? Would you be okay with me?
Su Tian felt flustered. She didn't know how to respond to the sudden confession.
Does she have a mobile phone? She'll ask on Xiaohongshu (Little Red Book) and wait for an answer online.
Gu Bai felt extremely distressed seeing Su Tian's embarrassed expression.
"Sister, did I make things difficult for you? I'm sorry, just pretend I didn't say anything today."
Gu Bai was about to leave when Su Tian, seeing his injured expression, quickly called him back.
Gu Bai stopped, but she didn't know how to start the conversation.
At this moment, Gu Bai walked up to Su Tian again. Su Tian retreated guiltily, all the way back to the tree she had just been standing on.
"Sister, do you not understand what 'like' means?"
Su Tian looked at Gu Bai and nodded frantically. Having lived two lives without ever being in a relationship, she truly didn't understand.
Gu Bai smiled when he saw Su Tian's innocent and adorable appearance.
He looked down at Su Tian and asked with a smile, "Sister, you've been so good to me before, I have no way to repay you but to offer myself to you. Will you agree?"
Su Tian saw Gu Bai, looking so handsome, suddenly lean in and almost touch him, and she blushed instantly.
"Gu Bai, I...I'm older than you, is that okay?"
"Sister, I know that. How old are you?"
"Your face is practically pressed against mine, I'm nineteen," Su Tian said helplessly.
Gu Bai replied nonchalantly, "Oh, only two years older, I don't mind. Sister, I like you. Let's try dating, okay?"
"Are you sure we want to be together? Let me think about it carefully."
"Okay, think it over carefully, sister. I'll wait for you."
After Gu Bai finished speaking, he ruffled Su Tian's hair.
Su Tian looked at Gu Bai, who was half a head taller than her, and felt a little envious.
This guy used to be a head shorter than her, but in just two years, he's taller than her.
Gu Bai also remembered this, "Sister, I'm not short anymore, I'm taller than you, and I'm not the little brother I used to be."
"You still say that? I used to think you were a primary school student."
Su Tian glanced at him and felt a little strange as she watched him grow more and more handsome.
"Hehe, sister, I'm almost an adult, I'm not a child anymore."
What brings you up the mountain? I'm here to help you.
"Let's just pick up some branches, a few at most, and then we'll go down."
"good."
After gathering a handful of branches, the other educated youth who had come with her called out to Su Tian, and then they all went down the mountain together.
They were all curious as to why Su Tian was with the Gu family's son. To be honest, he was fair-skinned and didn't look like someone who grew up in the countryside.
Gu Bai had no idea what they were thinking. He was very satisfied with today's confession.
Su Tian didn't want him to take her, but he insisted on taking her back to the educated youth settlement.
From then on, he would visit Su Tian at the educated youth settlement whenever he had free time. Sometimes he would bring books to read with her, and sometimes he would bring over delicious food made by Gu's mother.
When Su Tian was too lazy to cook and only ate snacks to fill her stomach, Gu Bai would always cook a meal and watch her finish it before going home.
Moreover, he would rush to dry the clothes that Su Tian took off after showering.
Everyone at the educated youth settlement thought they were a couple, but who knew? Su Tian hadn't even accepted Gu Bai's confession yet.
They spent two months together like this, and one starry night, they went for a walk together.
When Gu Bai took Su Tian back to the educated youth settlement, he couldn't help but secretly kiss her before letting go.
Su Tian smiled at him, then wrapped her arms around his neck, stood on tiptoe, and kissed Gu Bai.
Seeing this, Gu Bai was overjoyed and immediately took the initiative. Both of them were novices, and they kissed each other until they were breathless.
He looked at Su Tian with delight, "Sister, does this mean you've agreed to date me?"
Su Tian stood on tiptoe again, and Gu Bai, seeing this, quickly squatted down so that Su Tian could give him a good rub.
"Silly, I already agreed. If I didn't agree, would I have asked you to do chores for me? Would I have asked you to do my laundry?"
"Sister..." Gu Bai excitedly picked up Su Tian and ran around and around.
After finishing the run, Gu Bai was panting heavily, but he was happy to be tired, and felt that the effort was worthwhile.
"Haha, are you getting too excited? Is dating really that great?"
Su Tian looked at him with some confusion. She only had a good impression of Gu Bai, but she couldn't say she liked him.
The reason I agreed to date him was to try and see what it feels like to like someone.
"Sister, I am so excited and happy that you have entered my ordinary life. Don't even think about abandoning me."
Su Tian patted his shoulder, "Don't worry, once I've made up my mind about you, I'll stay with you forever."
It's getting late, do you want to go home first?
Gu Bai held Su Tian's hand and said, "Okay, then I'll come find you to work together tomorrow. I'll bring you breakfast, so you don't need to get up so early."
"Okay, I'll wait for you."
