She was only nineteen this year, just starting her first year at university.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was in his third year, but still a university student.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Talking about marriage now was indeed too early.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’m not saying we should get married now, but in the future. Haven’t you thought about marrying me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yan Yuexian’s heart was pounding. How could she not have thought about it?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She dreamt of quickly graduating and marrying him, but... she wasn’t qualified.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing her hesitant expression, Gong Sirui’s sense of crisis grew.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not even daring to answer, was she really just playing around?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No, he could feel that Yan Yuexian liked him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yuexian, are you hiding something from me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No!\" Yan Yuexian instinctively retorted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, feeling she had responded too quickly, she forced a smile, \"I just think we’re still young, and it’s hard to accept considering marriage so soon.
