Chapter 6 We Meet Again
“I only feel gratitude towards him,” she corrected.
Tang Cai pouted, "Okay, but if you get bullied, you have to tell us! Your best friend would do anything for you!"
Anmi: "Mmm!"
…
Over the next few days, Anmi was busy submitting resumes and going to interviews.
After graduation, many of my classmates found jobs.
Good news kept coming to the class group chat.
Looking at all those congratulatory emojis, she felt like a piece of trash that she couldn't give away.
It was 4:30 p.m. on Wednesday when she was leaving a company after an interview.
WeChat suddenly sent a notification sound.
She took her phone out of her pocket.
Yan Jinnian (potential best friend): Are you busy?
Looking at the other person's profile picture and nickname, Anmi took a moment to realize that this was the man she had signed a contract with.
I've been so busy looking for a job these past few days that I almost forgot about him.
She put her resume in her bag and typed two words.
"not busy."
The other person typed for a while.
Yan Jinnian (potential best friend): Want to go see a movie together sometime?
See a movie?
Anmi glanced at the time; she only had one interview that had just ended today, and that was it.
"Sure, I happen to be outside."
What movie would you like to see? Where would you like to see it?
Yan Jinnian (potential best friend): Which one do you want to see? I'll do whatever you say.
Yan Jinnian (potential best friend): Let's choose one near you, I'll come find you.
Anmi opened the ChouTuan search and found a shopping mall nearby with a movie theater inside.
She sent a screenshot of the address and also sent a list of several movies currently showing.
"You choose, I'm fine with either one."
After sending the address, she followed the map navigation to the mall.
Today is a weekday, and there aren't many people in the mall.
She strolled leisurely to the movie theater, bought two servings of popcorn, and sat down to eat while waiting.
Before we had even finished eating the top layer, Yan Jinnian arrived.
The tall man, over 1.8 meters tall, attracted everyone's attention as soon as he stepped out of the elevator.
Dressed in a suit and tie, with broad shoulders and a narrow waist, his long legs exude both restraint and allure.
Seeing An Mi, his eyes dimmed slightly: "I'm sorry to have kept you waiting so long."
Anmi was stuffing a handful of popcorn into her mouth.
"It's okay, I often wait for my best friend, this little bit of time is nothing."
Her intention was to tell him not to take it to heart.
But Yan Jinnian's expression was very serious.
"I won't stay up this late next time."
Anmi felt he was being too polite.
"You're not late, I just happened to be nearby."
She pushed the uneaten bucket of popcorn next to her forward.
Here, have some popcorn.
Yan Jinnian glanced at the bucket in front of her.
"You bought two?"
Did I buy one especially for him...?
Anmi nodded and said, "Yes, I was afraid one bucket wouldn't be enough, so I bought an extra one to keep on hand."
"..."
She chewed on popcorn and pointed to the sales area: "I haven't bought a Coke yet. I don't know when you'll arrive, and I'm worried the ice inside will melt."
"I'll go buy it." Yan Jinnian stood up.
"Is the movie I just sent you okay?"
Anmi was so focused on eating popcorn that she hadn't checked her phone yet.
When I heard him say that, I opened it and took a look.
"Oh, this is it! Okay!"
This movie has been heavily promoted recently; she even posted about it in her group chat with her girlfriends, asking them if they wanted to go see it together.
I didn't expect to see it with him first.
"Um."
Yan Jinnian went to buy tickets and also bought a Coke.
The two of them happened to catch a screening that started five minutes later.
