"Tangyu, could we have a private word?" Liu Shiyi suddenly approached and addressed Tangyu.
Tangyu nodded and said, "Sure, of course."
"Let's go over there," Liu Shiyi suggested, pointing to a quieter spot nearby. Meanwhile, the County Magistrate and the others were arranging other matters.
Soon the two reached the quiet grassy area. Liu Shiyi looked at Tangyu with deep affection and hesitated before speaking, "Tangyu, do you really like me?"
Tangyu smiled and nodded immediately, saying, "Like, of course I like you. Haven't I already confessed my feelings to you? I am very serious." He liked Liu Shiyi's innocence, her filial and kind nature, her slight wilfulness, and the rare strength she possesses as a woman. Moreover, since she studied traditional Chinese medicine, she shared many common interests with Tangyu. Although Liu Shiyi was a typical girl-next-door, she was far from ordinary in Tangyu's eyes and had her unique charm.
