He Simin was very talkative. He also went to get a lot of fruit and talked to Lin Mo from time to time.

Lin Mo would sometimes laugh at him and even raise her hand to pat him.

But the thought that Ah Li was still there made her silently withdraw her hand and carefully look at Ah Li.

Ahri pretended not to notice and continued choosing which movie to watch.

He Jingzhi sat quietly next to Ali, glanced at Ali's phone, and said, "Are you going to see a movie?"

Ah Li thinks all the recent movies are pretty good, with decent ratings. "Hmm, I just don't know which one to watch?"

He Simin, who was listening nearby, said, "Lin Mo's mom, let me recommend one, let's watch 'Lone in the Moon,' it's a sci-fi comedy."

"Okay, does Xiao Mo want to see it?"

Ah Li looked at Lin Mo, who quickly nodded, "Okay."

He Simin finished eating and said, "I don't have anything else to do, so I'll go with you to see it. I haven't seen it yet either."

He Jingzhi raised an eyebrow slightly. Didn't you see?

Who was it that laughed like a complete idiot when they saw it earlier?

"Okay, let's do it together."

Ah Li then looked at He Jingzhi and asked, "Mr. He, would you like to come along?"

He Simin, sitting opposite, immediately shook her head and said, "My uncle doesn't usually watch this kind of thing; he prefers financial news."

He Jingzhi was almost laughing in exasperation. Good, good, this kid has lost his sense of proportion after just three days without a beating.

Lin Mo tugged at He Simin, sensing that He Jingzhi was somewhat unhappy.

He Simin turned to look at Lin Mo and saw that Lin Mo's small hand was tugging at the hem of his clothes. He said a little awkwardly, "It's okay. I can take a taxi home by myself after the movie."

Lin Mo wanted to ask He Simin who had told him about going back. Didn't he even check on his uncle's side?

At this moment, Ali had booked four movie tickets. Then, looking at He Simin and Lin Mo, she felt that she should find an opportunity to talk to Lin Mo. Was she and He Simin getting a little too familiar?

Lin Mo noticed Ah Li's gaze and quickly lowered her head and withdrew her hand. Her mother was very gentle today, which made her forget that her mother did not like her getting too close to boys and forbade her from playing around with boys or saying an extra word to them.

Lin Mo silently increased the distance between herself and He Simin.

He Simin looked at Lin Mo with some confusion, but Lin Mo did not meet his gaze and avoided his eyes.

Ali said from the side, "I've bought four movie tickets, and the movie is about to start. Let's go."

He Jingzhi stood up and said, "I drove here."

Ahri glanced at the location of the movie theater and said, "Let's walk there, the movie theater isn't far."

"That's okay too."

He Jingzhi stepped aside to let Ah Li come out from her seat.

As Ahri walked past He Jingzhi, he smelled the fragrance of gardenias, which was very pleasant.

He Simin also stood up and asked Lin Mo to come out.

As the group left the Western restaurant, Ali led Lin Mo by the hand, while He Jingzhi and He Simin followed behind.

He Simin muttered to herself, "Girls' minds are so fickle. One second they're fine, and the next they're silent."

He Jingzhi glanced at He Simin with his eyes lowered, then looked up at Ali in front of him, before sending a message to Secretary Li: "Send me Lin Li's WeChat."

At that moment, Secretary Li was shopping with his girlfriend. His girlfriend was trying on clothes in a women's clothing store. He didn't ask any questions and simply handed over Ali's WeChat and phone number to He Jingzhi.

After receiving it, He Jingzhi clicked on Ali's WeChat card and looked at Ali's WeChat profile picture. It was a photo of her wearing a professional outfit, which was quite ordinary. However, the expression on her face was not like it was now. Instead, she looked a bit bitter and resentful, and there was a hint of depression between her brows.

When was this taken? It looks really off.

He Jingzhi still prefers the current Ahri; her eyes shine, her smile is warm, and she's still a person with her own ideas.

After walking for about ten minutes, we arrived at the movie theater. Ali bought Lin Mo popcorn and a Coke.

Lin Mo stood there, holding the popcorn, when a cup of cola was shoved into her hand. She was still a little dazed. "Mom?"

Is Mom not angry about what happened earlier?

Ali ordered another serving, turned around and handed it to He Simin, saying, "Here, this one is for you."

He Simin accepted the gift with a flattered expression, saying, "Thank you, Lin Mo's mother."

At this moment, Ali looked at He Jingzhi and asked, "Mr. He, would you like one?"

He Jingzhi said, "Thank you, but I don't need it."

"Oh well."

Just then, it was time for the movie to start.

Ahri, holding the tickets, said, "I bought four tickets so we can sit together. Let's go in."

He Simin took a few more steps forward with the popcorn in her arms, walked behind Lin Mo, and said, "We can sit together later, and I can tell you which parts are the funniest."

Lin Mo looked at He Simin, "Didn't you also not see it?"

He Simin's lips twitched. Oh no, he'd forgotten. But he still said, "I... I did some research beforehand and read some movie reviews."

"oh."

Lin Mo walked closer to Ah Li.

He Simin, holding the popcorn, looked dejected. "I wonder if Lin Mo will think I'm a smooth talker?"

Ahri looked at the seat numbers and quickly found the seats where the four of them were sitting.

Ali sat on the far left, followed by Lin Mo, He Simin, and then He Jingzhi.

He Jingzhi glanced at it and then took out his phone to see if Ali had accepted his friend request.
