Looking at Ye Ling'er, Nangong Ci felt that she was exceptionally lovable.

Nangong Ci reached out and patted her head at an inopportune moment, "I never thought that the little crybaby would grow up and have the shyness of a girl."

Nangong Ci deliberately leaned close to Ye Ling'er's ear and said, "You look beautiful today, I like you very much."

Upon hearing this, Ye Ling'er blushed slightly.

Suddenly remembering what he had said, she gritted her teeth and said, "You're the crybaby, your whole family is!"

What a crybaby!

It's all because he bullied me when I was little and made me cry!

Besides, so much time has passed, why are you still harping on her dark past?

She's so angry!

"Of course! Who cares if you like it? Humph!"

Ye Ling'er angrily stomped on Nangong Ci's shiny black leather shoes, then turned and stormed off.

But before he could take more than a few steps, he realized that someone was pulling him.

It's obvious who it is without even thinking.

Ye Ling'er turned to look at Nangong Ci, and became even more displeased, saying, "Why are you holding my hand? Let go!"

Nangong Ci smiled but remained silent.

Looking at Ye Ling'er in front of him, a glimmer of light appeared in his eyes.

Ye Ling'er struggled a few times, but didn't budge.

He immediately became furious, "If you don't let go, I'm going to bite you!"

After saying that, he deliberately made a fierce look.

Upon seeing this, Nangong Ci's smile deepened.

"You forgot what you promised me? Do I need to remind you who it was last night..."

Upon hearing this, Ye Ling'er immediately stepped forward and covered his mouth, glancing around as if afraid someone might overhear.

"Don't talk nonsense, I'll go to the movie with you!"

Last night, for some reason, she drove past a bar and, out of curiosity, decided to stop and look around.

She had never been there before, so she mustered up her courage and went in alone.

Previously, when she was abroad, it wasn't safe to be outside at night, and she was alone abroad and had never been outside before.

Now that she's finally back, she's become much bolder.

Who knew that even bars in China weren't absolutely safe? Last night, she was spotted shortly after entering the bar, and she unknowingly drank the spiked drink.

The result was predictable.

Just when she thought she was doomed, Nangong Ci appeared in front of her without her noticing and rescued her from that person.

He didn't take advantage of her vulnerability, and instead took her to see a doctor.

After she regained consciousness, she was worried that her brother and grandfather would find out about this, so she asked Nangong Ci to keep it a secret for her.

The price for keeping it a secret was to go to a movie with him.

Comparing the consequences of the two options, she readily agreed to Nangong Ci's request.

However, before leaving the house, for some reason...

The thought of Nangong Ci appearing before her like a savior last night made her feel incredibly safe.

And she, as if possessed, put on makeup and wore her lucky-colored dress to the appointment.

Even she herself felt that she had become obsessed.

Upon hearing this, Nangong Ci smiled and said, "It's good that you remember. Let's go."

Nangong Ci took Ye Ling'er's hand and walked towards the movie theater. Ye Ling'er looked at her hand being held, wanting to speak several times but then stopping herself.

Ye Ling'er had already eaten, and the two of them lingered at the entrance for a while. By this time, the movie theater had already started showing the opening scene, and almost everyone had arrived.

Ye Ling'er looked embarrassed upon seeing this.

Nangong Ci didn't seem to notice anything, pulling Ye Ling'er as they moved through the movie theater seats.

After finally finding a seat, Ye Ling'er breathed a sigh of relief.

Only then did I have time to see what movie it was, and I looked up.

It's a horror movie!

Ye Ling'er looked at Nangong Ci in disbelief. Was this person perhaps her nemesis?

When you bring a girl here, shouldn't you be watching a pure love movie or a romance movie?

If all else fails, anti-Japanese war dramas or patriotic movies will do!

Thinking back to my past experiences of being home alone during the day, whether I was with someone else or not...

Ye Ling'er felt ashamed towards everyone watching the movie; she was afraid she had spoiled their fun this time.

Nangong Ci had no idea what Ye Ling'er was thinking. Thinking about what would happen later, a smile appeared on Nangong Ci's lips.

He found this idea after searching online for a long time.

I just hope it actually works.

Suddenly, he noticed the popcorn and cola in the hands of the person in front of him, and he remembered seeing it online by chance before. Suddenly, an idea popped into his head.

If she could feed him, wouldn't their relationship be able to progress further?

Nangong Ci turned to Ye Ling'er and asked, "Want some popcorn?"

"Huh?" Ye Ling'er, who was lost in thought, was startled when she heard the words. Then, following Nangong Ci's gaze, she saw a couple in front of her eating popcorn.

He immediately understood what he meant.

Popcorn and cola are the perfect match when watching a movie.

If it's a romantic movie, she'll definitely nod without hesitation.

But she can't eat horror movies, and...

Just as her thoughts were racing, Nangong Ci suddenly stood up and left a message.

"Wait here for me, I'll be right back."

Watching her departing figure, Ye Ling'er felt a little puzzled.

The movie is about to start, what's he going to do?

She quickly lost sight of the person and withdrew her gaze.

She glanced up at the movie screen; the movie was still playing the opening introduction, and she wasn't that scared yet.

She didn't dare watch the main feature later.

She wanted to run away, but then she remembered that this was something she had promised Nangong Ci.

She held back again.

She glanced around and found that most of the people who came were young couples.

Seeing that many girls were a little scared, she calmed down a bit.

Never mind, at worst she'll just keep her eyes closed the whole time.

She refused to believe she would be scared again.

Before long, she saw Nangong Ci walking towards her with popcorn in one hand and a can of cola in the other.

It turns out he went to buy her something.

After she sat down, Nangong Ci handed her all the things, and she did not refuse.

After all, they've already bought it, so it would be a bit pretentious for her to refuse.

Ye Ling'er ate bite by bite, but dared not focus her eyes and mind entirely on the movie.

Seeing that she had no intention of feeding him, Nangong Ci looked somewhat helpless.

It seems he still has a long way to go!

Nangong Ci pondered for a moment, then his expression brightened.

If the enemy doesn't move, I will.

Nangong Ci smiled and turned to look at Ye Ling'er, asking, "Is it delicious?"

"Huh?" Ye Ling'er said subconsciously, then understood and nodded, "Delicious."

"Feed me," Nangong Ci said calmly.

Actually, I was already very flustered.

It was his first time pursuing a girl, so it would be a lie to say he wasn't nervous.

Ye Ling'er paused, her hand holding the popcorn still, somewhat unable to believe what she was hearing.

Feed him?

She didn't mishear?

Nangong Ci said he wanted to eat popcorn?
