Chapter 158 Watching a Movie

The car did not drive directly home, but stopped at a shopping mall on the way back.

Before the car door opened, Lin Shutang heard Li Yansheng ask again: "Are you feeling unwell?"

"No."

Then, the car door opened, and she followed Li Yansheng out, thinking he had another half-day of drinking to do. When they finally stopped at the entrance of the cinema in the mall, Lin Shutang still felt a little unreal.

It's raining today and there aren't many people outside, but the entrance to the cinema is still bustling.

There was an old movie encore today, and when Li Yansheng asked Lin Shutang to choose what to watch, Lin Shutang chose "In the Mood for Love".

Hearing her choice, Li Yansheng raised his eyebrows but said nothing.

Lin Shutang took the initiative to buy movie tickets, and Li Yansheng went out to smoke a cigarette.

She had once heard that cigarettes were often a way for men to stay alert. She wasn't sure how true this was, but when Li Yansheng returned, the fatigue he'd felt from the alcohol seemed to have dissipated considerably, and he felt more sober.

He was holding a bottle of mineral water, which he must have just bought. At this moment, he returned to his usual serious and self-possessed company boss demeanor.

After all, it is an old movie. Even if the quality is high, not many people choose to watch this movie at this point.

Halfway through the film, Lin Shutang turned his head to look at Li Yansheng. He wasn't closing his eyes to rest, but was watching intently. Many men wouldn't be very interested in this kind of romantic film, but his behavior surprised Lin Shutang.

On second thought, he felt that this was also normal for Li Yansheng. He always put a lot of effort into everything he did, no matter what it was.

The light from the movie shone on his face, making his already tall and three-dimensional features appear even more profound and charming.

There’s a line in the movie that goes, “I’ve always wondered how it all started, and now I understand. It turns out a lot of things are like this.”

Lin Shutang listened and watched, and suddenly felt a little thirsty.

So, she reached out to take the water that Li Yansheng had placed between the two of them, but as soon as she picked it up, she was noticed by the man next to her.

He turned his head to look at her, without saying a word, but took the bottle of slightly cold water back from her hand, then took out a bottle of milk from his coat pocket and handed it to her.

Lin Shutang held it in his hand. It wasn't very hot, but he could feel a distinct warmth. It must have been heated by the store clerk before.

It was already late when we left the cinema.

When Lin Shutang saw the couple holding hands next to him, he paused for a moment, then quickened his pace and walked forward, his hand gradually moving closer to Li Yansheng.

He didn't look back, but as if he had sensed something, he accurately took Lin Shutang's hand and put it in his coat pocket.

Lin Shutang felt an indescribable emotion spreading in his heart. The way they were now seemed no different from an ordinary couple.

"It doesn't seem far from here, let's walk back!"

It had just rained, and there was still water outside. She thought of something, but Li Yansheng didn't say no right away. He just said, "It might rain again later."

Lin Shutang: "Then let's take a shower once!"

Li Yansheng laughed: "I'm not worried about my stomach getting uncomfortable anymore."

Lin Shutang was stunned by his words, thinking about how to refute him. When they passed by Fan Sizhuo who was driving over, Li Yansheng did not go over to her. Instead, he held her hand and continued walking.

Fortunately, after walking for more than 20 minutes, it didn't rain anymore.

It was just that the last rain had not stopped for long, and the air was damp and cold.

Lin Shutang was still wearing Li Yansheng's suit jacket, so his upper body wasn't too cold. However, most of his legs were exposed, and the chill was noticeable.

However, I felt embarrassed to say no to the matter I had brought up, so I just went away.
