Chapter 1443: Refusing to be Balanced (18)

The two returned to school quickly. Before Zhou Zhan sent Tang Shichu back to the dormitory, he didn't find a chance to express his feelings, so he had to decide with regret to talk about it next time.

However, since that day, Zhou Zhan was no longer so reserved. He started calling Tang Shichu every day, asking her out for dinner when he was free, and even tentatively asking her out on a date on weekends.

"You said you had two movie tickets and wanted to go to the movies with me?" Tang Shichu asked in shock, "Won't going to the movies be a waste of your time?"

Zhou Zhan: ...I blame myself for being too busy before...

He quickly added: "I'm not busy now, and I still have a few hours to watch a movie on the weekend, so would you like to go with me?"

Tang Shichu didn't refuse: "Sure."

So the two of them went to the cinema together. Tang Shichu looked at the movie ticket Zhou Zhan gave her and saw that the name of the movie was a romance movie. She joked, "Zhou Zhan, you're still watching a romance movie?"

Zhou Zhan said helplessly: "Romance movies are the most popular..."

After finding the seat, the movie started quickly. To be honest, this movie was pretty good. At least the actors' acting skills were good, and the plot was coherent and logical. There was nothing distracting about it, so Tang Shichu was still able to watch it.

Zhou Zhan's invitation to Tang Shichu to watch a movie was naturally for other reasons. He had already made up his mind that he must explain his feelings to Tang Shichu this time and could not delay any longer.

He planned to test it out first, but how? The man whose mind was full of formulas and theories finally racked his brains to find a little bit of romantic "pursuit" from the corner.

So he quietly moved his hand towards Tang Shichu's hand hanging beside the chair, pretending to shake it casually...

He was very nervous and had prepared himself mentally to be pushed away by Tang Shichu, because he knew that Tang Shichu was someone who didn't like others touching her.

The sound of his heartbeat overwhelmed the voice of the male protagonist in the movie, stimulating Zhou Zhan's nerves in the dim movie theater. All his attention was now on the hand he was holding on Tang Shichu...

Tang Shichu didn't notice at first that her hand was held by Zhou Zhan. She was so familiar with Zhou Zhan's existence that she had no defense against him at all. Therefore, she didn't feel any discomfort even though her hand was held. Her attention was still on the movie.

It's just that because Zhou Zhan was too nervous, the temperature of his hands was getting higher and higher, and his presence became stronger. Tang Shichu finally felt dully that her hands were bound in a warm object. She looked down and saw that it was Zhou Zhan's hand.

Tang Shichu couldn't tell what she was thinking. Her first reaction was: Is Zhou Zhan afraid? But she quickly realized that what they were watching was not a horror movie, but a fresh romance movie. What was he afraid of? Could he be afraid of romance?

So is he afraid of the dark, or has nyctophobia? After all, the lights in this cinema were all turned off, with only the big screen on, so it was pretty dark overall.

Tang Shichu was about to ask Zhou Zhan if he was afraid of the dark, and if he wanted to go out to relieve himself first. However, when she turned her head to look at Zhou Zhan, with her excellent eyesight, she saw Zhou Zhan's red earlobes and the tightly stretched corners of his mouth...

This doesn't seem like I'm afraid of the dark.

In a flash, Tang Shichu had an idea and suddenly realized that his hand did not grab him accidentally, but intentionally!

Then why did he deliberately hold his hand? Thinking about the fact that this person specially invited him to watch a romantic movie today, Tang Shichu had an incredible guess in his mind: Is Zhou Zhan pursuing him?

Tang Shichu had never noticed that he had any feelings for her before, but now...

She opened her fingers, turned them over forcefully, inserted her five fingers between Zhou Zhan's fingers, took control and held his hand, then leaned towards him and whispered in his ear, "Xiao Zhan, do you want to hold hands with me?"

Zhou Zhan suddenly clenched Tang Shichu's hand tightly. After being asked this question by her, he managed to calm down his expression, but said righteously with a red face: "Don't call me Xiao Zhan, I'm older than you."

When Tang Shichu heard him say that, he immediately laughed and deliberately asked him: "Xiao Zhan, Xiao Zhan, I just like to call you that. Are you trying to change the subject? I'm asking if you want to hold hands with me."

Zhou Zhan finally couldn't help it, and pressed Tang Shichu into his arms, preventing her from seeing his expression. In the end, he answered her honestly: "Yes, I want to hold your hand."

Tang Shichu teased him with a smile, poked his chest with his other hand, and said, "Xiao Zhan, are you satisfied with just holding hands? Don't you want to kiss and hug me?"

"Shichu..." Zhou Zhan's whole body suddenly stiffened and his muscles tensed. He didn't know if it was because of what Tang Shichu said or her fingers poking his chest.

Tang Shichu had no intention of being reserved. She liked Zhou Zhan's looks, not to mention that he was smart. She was a fan of both looks and intelligence, and Zhou Zhan just happened to satisfy her aesthetic standards.

Before, she didn't touch this flower on the mountain top because she thought he was only focused on professional research and would not get involved in emotional matters. So she didn't want to eat this grass in her backyard and disturb his thoughts on joining the scientific community. But she didn't expect that this grass in her backyard would run to her mouth. She couldn't control herself.

Zhou Zhan's face turned red. He obviously didn't expect Tang Shichu to react like this. He thought holding hands would be the best result today, but he didn't expect Tang Shichu to be much more anxious than him.

Tang Shichu didn't even bother to watch the movie. She just wanted to tease this grass that ran to her mouth: "Xiao Zhan, have you liked me a long time ago? When I was the hero who saved the beauty? It turns out that if you save someone's life, you should repay them with your body. Our ancestors never lied to me..."

Zhou Zhan: …

Zhou Zhan's heart was beating wildly because of Tang Shichu's words. He now knew that Tang Shichu was not indifferent to him, otherwise he would not have not only not shaken off his hand, but also teased him like this.

When he realized this, he felt extremely happy, as if he was floating in the air, or as if there was sweet honey flowing. Even the air in the cinema became exceptionally fresh and pleasant.

"That's right. I have decided to repay you for saving my life with my body. Are you willing to accept me?" Zhou Zhan suppressed his inner shyness and asked Tang Shichu.

"Of course." Tang Shichu nodded hurriedly, "Who would be willing to not want such a talented and handsome little brother?"

When Zhou Zhan heard her words, he laughed softly and kissed Tang Shichu's lips happily.

The hot breath flowed between the two people, and the fierce kiss became more intense in the darkness, sparks flew...
