I used half my life to gain this great enlightenment. If I were to look back even once, I would deserve to die," Chen Lu said to himself after waking up.
He and Mo Yuqing had known each o...
After sitting down, the two of them released their hands at the same time, just as they had been holding them.
While Chen Lu turned his head, Liang Zhirou quickly rubbed her burning cheeks.
How dare you hold it back! That's so embarrassing!
Now look what's happened; nothing's clear of me anymore.
Chen Lu is so good to you, how could you... how could you take advantage of him?
She mentally berated herself.
After regaining her senses, she still felt the sensation of Chen Lu holding her right hand, which made her involuntarily squeeze the air twice.
Although she was incredibly nervous for a while, she also really, really enjoyed it. So much so that after letting go, a feeling of emptiness lingered in her heart, making her feel as if a part of her body was missing.
When we recall these past experiences, we might wake up laughing in our dreams.
Maybe this feels more like a dream; I've never been this happy, not even in my wildest dreams.
She thought to herself, mustered up her courage and secretly glanced at Chen Lu, only to see him give her a gentle smile.
Liang Zhirou lowered her head quickly, like a startled fawn.
However, the novelty of her first time at the movie theater quickly overcame her shyness, and Liang Zhirou looked around like a child.
Chen Lu just smiled quietly at her, finding her more and more adorable.
The movie theater was very dimly lit, but she could tell that a lot of people had booked tickets for this show. The theater was packed with people, mostly couples, and the sounds of them joking and teasing each other were constant.
Liang Zhirou had no idea how Chen Lu managed to buy a ticket for the very middle section under these circumstances.
It couldn't have been bought several days in advance...
Just as she was thinking this, she suddenly discovered a startling fact.
She found that everywhere she looked, there were men and women sitting side by side, without exception.
The simple-minded Liang Zhirou always felt that they weren't really there to watch the movie, because no one was looking at the big screen.
Suddenly she saw a couple kissing. Startled, she quickly looked away and sat up straight.
Liang Zhirou's observation activities have come to an end.
"That seems too impolite..."
She blushed and said, fidgeting with her hands, feeling very uncouth.
Chen Lu rolled his eyes at her. "Who cares about you? These couples who come to watch a movie don't even care about cameras, so why would they be afraid of you seeing them kissing?"
The girl didn't quite understand and asked, "What do you mean?"
"It's okay, I don't know anything." Chen Lu cleared his throat. "Just sit still, it should start soon."
"Okay." Liang Zhirou nodded obediently.
"Good boy/girl, here's a popcorn treat for you."
As Chen Lu spoke, he held the popcorn to Liang Zhirou's lips. Whether this silly girl had completely adapted and given up resisting or because it was dark in the movie theater, she obediently opened her mouth and ate it.
Chen Lu smiled with satisfaction; his efforts had been quite effective.
To be honest, he never buys popcorn when he goes to the movies, but he bought it specifically because he accompanied Liang Zhirou today.
Watching a movie is nowhere as fun as feeding this silly goose.
Not even half, okay?
He smugly picked up a popcorn and was about to put it in his mouth when Liang Zhirou grabbed his wrist.
"What's wrong?" Chen Lu looked at her with a puzzled expression.
"There might be saliva on it." The girl's gaze was fixed to the side, and she didn't dare to look at him at all. "It was too dark just now."
She felt as if her lips had just touched Chen Lu's fingers.
"But I don't know which finger I used when I fed you."
Chen Lu said calmly, he felt he had never reacted so quickly in his entire life.
The girl blinked. "It's just these two fingers, isn't it?"
"Are you sure?" Chen Lu continued to ask.
Liang Zhirou suddenly lost her confidence because of him, and even her body went a little weak. "I'm not sure."
Chen Lu shrugged. "Then how am I supposed to eat? It's inconvenient to use my left hand, and the movie is about to start. I can't exactly run out to wash my hands, can I?"
After saying that, he took a sip of milk tea, using the time to think about how else he could lay the groundwork.
He added:
"Never mind, it's fine. If I don't want to eat it, I don't want to eat it. I can't possibly be so hungry that I cry in the middle of the night."
The girl pursed her lips slightly, thought for a long time, then leaned close to Chen Lu's ear and whispered, "I, I'll feed you."
She spoke very softly, as if afraid that others would hear her.
The soft, delicate voice sent a shiver down Chen Lu's spine. Even a succubus couldn't speak more than that.
"OK!"
He immediately agreed.
Liang Zhirou picked out one that looked plump and carefully offered it to Chen Lu's mouth.
I was incredibly nervous.
"We are good friends, and we are innocent."
She kept repeating it to herself.
Unfortunately, she could only read it twice before she couldn't continue.
"This is anything but innocent..."
Chen Lu accepted everything offered and ate it without hesitation, seemingly enjoying it immensely.
Liang Zhirou was stunned when she realized that the popcorn in her hand was gone. Then she felt a strange sense of joy.
She took another popcorn out of the paper tube and handed it over.
Feeding Chen Lu seemed to make him much happier than eating himself.
Two minutes later.
"Alright, alright, let me rest for a bit." Chen Lu burped. "If I keep eating this fast, I'm going to burst."
He really couldn't eat anymore; this stuff was so cloying that he didn't even want to drink milk tea anymore.
So he usually only buys iced cola when he comes here.
"Okay, okay..."
Liang Zhirou was still somewhat unsatisfied.
The movie had just started at that moment.
The girl sat up straight and looked at the large screen in front of her.
The movie sound is really loud.
At this moment, a slightly chubby boy took the flashlight that came with his phone, bent over, and sat down next to Chen Lu.
"What a tough guy! He dares to come to the movies alone on a day like this," Chen Lu couldn't help but exclaim.
The boy looked at him in surprise, thinking he had found an accomplice.
"Brother, you too?"
Chen Lu shook his head, ate the popcorn Liang Zhirou handed him in one bite, and replied indistinctly, "I'm not."
"......Depend on!"
Chen Lu's words angered him so much that he sat down in the only remaining empty seat in the distance, and even made an international friendship gesture towards Chen Lu from afar.
"What did he just say to you?" Liang Zhirou leaned closer to Chen Lu and asked in a low voice, full of curiosity.
"He said he really envied me, that I have such a beautiful, cute and obedient friend like you."
"You just lied to me." Liang Zhirou said, feeling wronged.
Chen Lu was very helpless. "This time, I really didn't lie to you about a single word."
They only lied about half a word.
It will be correct to remove the "子" in the future.
