Reborn in the Great Northern Wilderness in 1982, I farmed and hunted to support my whole family.

"Yimei, Li Mu is here to see you. Come out and meet him."

Tao Yimei bit her lip, hesitated for a moment, then got up, put on her clothes, and went out of the house.

Li Mu stood in the courtyard, smiled when he saw her, and pointed behind him: "Want to go play? Hu Zi and Jian Jun said a new amusement park opened in the city. Shall we go to the city together? I'll drive you back."

Tao Yimei was stunned for a moment. She saw Li Jianjun and Tian Xiaohu sitting in the car, waving and greeting her. Two women were sitting next to them.

She knew both women; they were Li Jianjun and Tian Xiaohu's girlfriends. Seeing these two girls, Tao Yimei couldn't help but feel a little flustered.

When other people go out with their partners, what's going on between her and Li Mu?

But the look in Li Mu's eyes didn't seem right; there was a hint of caution in them. Tao Yimei bit her lip, her mind a jumble of thoughts. She wanted to refuse, but the words stuck in her throat.

Tao Qingshang was afraid that she would get bored staying at home, so he called out to her, "Go on, go out with Li Mu and get some fresh air. You're going to go crazy staying at home every day."

Tao Yimei blushed even more after her father said that. She lowered her head, nodded, and turned to get her coat and put it on.

Li Mu was secretly overjoyed, but deliberately put on a calm face: "Then let's go now, don't keep them waiting."

He opened the car door for Tao Yimei and sat in the passenger seat. After she was settled, he closed the door and went around to the other side to get into the car.

The atmosphere inside the car was somewhat awkward throughout the journey. Tao Yimei kept her head down, her fingers constantly twisting the hem of her clothes.

Li Jianjun's girlfriend is a girl from two neighboring villages. She has a straightforward personality and always looks at him with a smile.

Tao Yimei felt a little uncomfortable being stared at, and finally couldn't help but ask, "Is there something on my face?"

The girl chuckled: "No, I just admire how pretty you are and how good your skin is."

Upon hearing this, Tao Yimei immediately felt embarrassed.

"No way, I think you're the prettiest one."

When Li Mu saw this scene in the rearview mirror, the corners of his mouth unconsciously turned up.

Tian Xiaohu's girlfriend also came over and started chatting with Tao Yimei.

With the arrival of these two girls, the atmosphere inside the car gradually became more lively.

Tao Yimei relaxed a lot. When they arrived in the city, Li Mu took them to the amusement park.

The amusement park was newly opened in the city, and the facilities were all new. It was advertised as a grand opening promotion, and tickets were hard to come by. Li Mu only managed to get a ticket through Zhao Dakai's connections.

Tian Xiaohu's girlfriend excitedly pointed inside: "Isn't this amusement park newly opened? How did you guys get tickets?"

Tian Xiaohu and Li Jianjun exchanged a glance and chuckled: "Isn't this Brother Mu's idea? He has a lot of connections, getting a few tickets is a piece of cake for him. What do you call it? A beauty's smile is priceless. Let's make Sister Yimei happy today."

Upon hearing this, Tao Yimei's cheeks turned as red as apples. She secretly glanced at Li Mu, who punched them both on the shoulder: "Don't talk nonsense, what do you mean by beauty? We invited everyone out today just to have fun."

The group entered the amusement park, and Li Mu specially bought all-day passes so they could play whatever they wanted.

Tao Yimei had never been to a place like this before.

Li Mu noticed her nervousness and suggested with a smile, "There are a lot of people here, so stick with me and don't get jostled."

Even so, she still moved to his left to keep others away, afraid that she would be pushed around.

"Hey? Where are the other four?"

Tao Yimei was puzzled; how could the four people who were just together have disappeared in the blink of an eye?

"They're waiting for us up ahead. I'll take you to do something exciting."

Li Mu boldly took Tao Yimei's hand and walked towards the roller coaster.

Tao Yimei was startled by Li Mu's sudden action. She tried to pull her hand away, but found that Li Mu was holding it tightly. She bit her lip and pretended not to know, so she did not try to pull it away forcefully.

Li Mu was secretly delighted. Was this a good sign?

The vehicle wasn't very high, only a few dozen meters, but the feeling of weightlessness as you plunged down from it still made many people scream.

Tao Yimei kept her eyes tightly closed, gripped the handrails tightly with both hands, and her body was tense.

Li Mu sat next to her, looking at her like this, and reached out to take her hand before suddenly shouting, "Tao Yimei!"

Startled by the sudden noise, Tao Yimei opened her eyes and shouted, "What!"

Her voice carried a hint of coquettishness, which she herself was unaware of.

Li Mu laughed heartily: "It's nothing, I just saw you were too nervous, relax."

The roller coaster slowly came to a stop. Tao Yimei's legs felt a little weak, and Li Mu reached out to support her: "Are you alright?"

Tao Yimei shook her head, her mind in turmoil. She didn't know what Li Mu's repeated actions meant, but she could feel her heart beating faster and faster.

"What else do you want to play? How about we play that?"

Li Mu pointed to the Ferris wheel that had been rerouted, where many men and women were queuing up in long lines.

Before we came, my friends all advised me to ride the Ferris wheel at the amusement park and confess my feelings at the highest point, saying it would guarantee a 100% success rate. Today is the perfect opportunity.

Tao Yimei didn't know about Ferris wheels.

The meaning was unclear, but looking at the long queue, he hesitated, "There are so many people."

Li Mu had already pulled her towards the end of the line: "It's okay, let's just wait in line. It'll be good for us to talk."

Tao Yimei felt inexplicably at ease as he pulled her along. While waiting in line, the two chatted.

Li Mu recounted amusing anecdotes from his childhood, making Tao Yimei burst into laughter.

Before they knew it, it was their turn.

As Tao Yi rode the Ferris wheel and ascended higher,

Yi Mei's anxiety grew. She didn't know what Li Mu meant by bringing her to ride the Ferris wheel, but she could sense that Li Mu was acting differently today.

Neither of them spoke, turning their heads to look out the window. The Ferris wheel slowly rose, and when it reached its highest point, the entire city's night view was laid out before them.

Looking at the scenery outside the window, Tao Yimei's mood calmed down a little.

Li Mu suddenly spoke up: "Yi Mei, I have something I want to say to you."

Tao Yimei's heart skipped a beat. She turned to look at Li Mu, who stared at the reflected light on her beautiful face, her eyes glistening with tears. He was stunned.

"I'll find you one."

Li Mu took out a small, exquisite box from his sleeve and handed it to Tao Yimei: "This is something I specially picked out for you. Open it and take a look."

Tao Yimei took the box with trembling hands. When she opened it, she saw a gold chain with a blooming plum blossom in the center, the petals of which were lifelike.

"this....."

Tao Yimei looked at the gold chain in front of her, somewhat at a loss.

Li Mu's hands were sweating nervously: "I...I've liked you since I was in school, but I never dared to say it. Now, I feel the time is right, so I want to tell you that I like you and want you to be my girlfriend."

As soon as I finished speaking, I regretted it. Hadn't I practiced so many times before coming here? At this crucial moment, my mind went blank and I forgot everything.

Who still speaks in a local dialect these days? Why not use some nicer words?

Tao Yimei suddenly smiled when she heard Li Mu's confession.

"Why didn't you say so sooner? I thought I was just being presumptuous."
