Arvin gave her a brief answer, "You are too young to date any men."
...
Therefore, when Arvin told her that she could date Scott two years ago, Lulu refused his proposal and expressed her resistance, even though she liked Scott very much.
"You're not my father. You have no right to decide whom I should date!" she protested.
As Lulu's brother, Arvin understood her clearly, so he also knew that she was telling a lie when she told him that she didn't love Scott.
When Lulu saw the falsified diagnostic report that Arvin had prepared which showed that Scott was in the final stage of cancer, she couldn't hide her feelings to him any more.
... Arvin might be the only one in the world who had tricked his sister so many times.
As for Scott, Lulu heard that he had many ex-girlfriends.
Scott stopped kissing Lulu until she couldn't catch her breath. Their heads pressed against each other in the snow. "Come home with me for the spring festival, " said he.
Lulu was still a little dizzy, then she asked, "Why?"
"To visit my parents!" answered Scott.
Lulu pushed him away immediately and said, "No, I won't go with you! We have broken up! You can go with your girlfriend in your college!"
Scott felt a little headache and explained to her, "I've told you that I don't know why that photo appeared between the pages of my book."
He felt wronged. He hadn't read that book in such a long time, and he had totally forgotten about that girl. Unfortunately, Lulu found that book by accident on the day they went to his apartment together...
He was annoyed with his so-called friend and partner who told Lulu his relationship with that woman in college.
Many other conflicts also arose, so they began to quarrel with each other. In fact, Scott had kept silent most of the time, but Lulu never stopped accusing him.
She proposed to break up, and he refused at first, but she compelled him to accept it.
Scott felt wronged.
"Look! You're already impatient with me. Do you detest me? I know that nobody likes me... I'm naughty and self-willed and unreasonable... Go! Just leave me alone!" Lulu covered her face with her hands and began sobbing.
Scott took off his black jacket and squatted to put it on her shoulders.
"I love you no matter how naughty and self-willed you are. I've never detested you. I love you because, for me, you've learned how to cook. For me, you've learned how to wash clothes. For me, you've skipped classes and watched thrillers with me... You are my Lulu, and nobody can replace you in my heart." Scott knew Lulu's every effort to maintain their relationship.
His love for Lulu was as deep as hers for him.
Therefore, he won't break up with her no matter what happened between them.
"Huhuhu..." Lulu burst into tears because of what he had said.
She ran into his arms and hugged him tightly.
Her sudden action made Scott move backward to avoid falling off.
When they got back to his car, Lulu had fallen asleep. He placed her in the backseat of the car and drove to the direction of the house of the Gu Family.
