"I love you" only takes three seconds to say, three hours to explain, and a lifetime to prove.
Lin Chuan is three years younger than me (Su Yang), and we grew up together.
Paragraph 1
Lin Chuan: "Su Yang, you are so kind! I don't love my mother, I love you!"
I smiled and said, "Linchuan, do you know what love is?"
Lin Chuan tilted his head and said, "No matter what I look like, you won't hit me or scold me, and you can still play with me..."
That year, Lin Chuan was eight years old.
Paragraph 2
Lin Chuan pulled me into his arms, put his chin on my shoulder, and whispered in my ear:
"Su Yang, do you know what it feels like to like someone?"
I froze and didn't move, I just moved my lips: "No... I don't know."
"That's how it feels now."
My heart was pounding. Lin Chuan's chest was pressed against my back, and I seemed to hear his heartbeat.
Me: "Lin... Lin Chuan, we can't do this anymore. We... Have to keep our distance. Do you understand?"
Lin Chuan: "Understood!"
That year, Lin Chuan was fourteen years old.

Paragraph N
Lin Chuan: "Su Yang, I love you!"
Me: "Linchuan, I'm sorry!"
Lin Chuan: "Why?"
Me: "..."
In order to prove his love, Lin Chuan tried his best to catch up.
Purpose: Companionship is the longest confession of love
