REBIRTH FROM THE ASHES

Chapter 771 Gag
Since Yu Qiubai had made up his mind to woo her, he went all out and threw his dignity aside. He was ready to beg, borrow, and steal to get his girl.
"So you can't wait at all?" Shen Tang questioned with a smile.
"Of course, I can't wait. Now that you have your vision back, you'll see better-looking men. You'd think I'm ugly and lose interest in me. You're going to abandon me, aren't you?" Yu Qiubai spoke matter-of-factly without shame.
He had been plagued by insecurities since he begged her to be with him. Yu Qiubai believed that she agreed to be his girlfriend because she was moved by his persistence.
Shen Tang saw him as a younger brother for a long time. However, he did not want to be regarded as a brother. Yu Qiubai wanted to be her man.
"Apart from you, who else pays so much attention to a blind person like me?" Shen Tang clung to his arm and leaned in for a kiss. She was brought back to the past year of all the things he did for her. She made a mental note of every single detail. All these things added up to one beautiful memory.
Taken aback, Yu Qiubai held his breath and looked into her eyes, "Are you sure you won't leave me no matter what the future holds or how many outstanding and good-looking men go after you?"
"I swear." Shen Tang raised her hand. Looking at his solemn face, she extended her arm to give it a pinch. "Can you promise you won't leave when I grow old and ugly?"
She was older than him by five years. Shen Tang should be the one worried. Hence, she did not allow herself to accept and dive into the relationship headfirst despite knowing his feelings.
Boys had not reached maturity at that age. Perhaps it was only a spur of a moment for Yu Qiubai, or maybe he took pity on her.
More than just being moved by him later on, she liked him too. Somehow, sometime, somewhere, Shen Tang started to develop feelings for him.
By the time she looked back and realized it, the feelings had only gotten stronger. "Of course." Yu Qiubai lifted his hand to swear. "My heart, my person, up and down, inside out, belong to you and only you for the rest of my life." He had just finished his sentence.
"Tangtang."
Shen Xi called from the back. Gazing at the sweet couple, she was cringing by their mushiness.
Yu Qiubai was made of perseverance. Only God knew how many rejections he took from Tangtang in the past year, and still, he persisted and got the girl. He stole Tangtang's heart and soul.
Shen Tang's cheeks burned when she heard Shen Xi's voice. She turned back to find Mrs. Yu together with Shen Xi and Li Yuan. Feeling embarrassed, she wanted to push Yu Qiubai away. Yu Qiubai held her hand tightly, not allowing her to shrink back into her shell. It was normal for couples to be intimate.
Besides, they were only holding hands. It was not like they were venturing into the third or fourth base in public.
"Your mom is here." Shen Tang did not have skin as thick as his. As a rather conservative girl, she felt it was improper to behave that way in front of her elders.
"My mom is happy." Yu Qiubai looked back and greeted the approaching trio. He gazed at them. "Thank you for picking up my mother." That day, Mom's health took a toll after she learned that Li Yuan was still alive.
