"How can you be like this? You're too bad!"
Serena glared at Yaquan, her index finger drawing circles in front of her, as if she was angry and did not look at him anymore.
Although she had always been the one chasing him, she was still a girl.
Girls would be shy. It was already at such a crucial step, how bad would it be for her to say that?
Ya Quan smiled gently again and held Serena's face with both hands, making her look at him.
"Serena, I promise you that as long as I'm alive, I'll treat you well."
Ya Quan's eyes were sincere and affectionate. It was the first time Serena saw such emotions in his eyes, and this gaze was directed at her.
"I don't want you to talk about life and death. I just want you to treat me well."
Serena raised her hand to cover Ya Quan's mouth, not letting him say those unlucky words.
She wanted him to live, to live well.
"Are you willing to be my girlfriend?"
Ya Quan gently grabbed the hand beside his lips.
