He Chen'an strode over, snatched the basket from Gu Ningzhi's hand, glared fiercely at Gu Ningzhi with his dark eyes, and then pulled Wen Xi toward the bicycle.
Not wanting to miss this only opportunity, Gu Ningzhi quickly caught up and stood in front of He Chen'an, sincerely saying, "Brother, I'm really not a bad person. I just want to get to know your sister. I have no ill intentions. I work in the transportation team. If you don't believe me, you can go and ask around at the transportation team..."
"Who told you I'm her brother? If you have eye problems, go to the hospital to get them fixed." He Chen'an's gaze swept across Gu Ningzhi's face like a knife before he pulled Wen Xi away.
If they're not siblings, then they must be in a romantic relationship, right?
This realization left Gu Ningzhi speechless.
Watching He Chen'an ride away on his bicycle with Wen Xi on the back, the other man was somewhat gloating. Luckily, Gu Ningzhi had told him not to chase after them, otherwise he would be the one who would lose face now.
They are truck drivers in a transport team, highly sought-after in the marriage market. Countless women would do anything to marry them. They could find any kind of woman they wanted, so why should they put up with this?
"Xiaoxi, it's still early, let's go see a movie!" He Chen'an suggested. He was not targeting Wenxi personally; this was not Wenxi's fault, and he wouldn't take out his anger on her.
Wen Xi calculated the time and realized that she would have enough time to go shopping at the department store after watching the movie, so she agreed, "Okay, I wonder what movies are showing now?"
He Chen'an: "You'll know when we get there."
They soon arrived at the cinema. There weren't many films to choose from, so Wenxi simply picked "Spring Seedlings." The film tells the story of Tian Chunmiao, the women's team leader of a brigade in Jiangnan. She is currently working in the countryside in the Fengshou Brigade, so this film is worth watching.
Movie tickets are cheap, only two cents each.
The two of them arrived at just the right time; the movie had just started and they were still able to go in, so they didn't have to wait for the next showing, otherwise they would have had to wait a long time.
Today wasn't a day off, so there weren't many people coming to see the movie. When the two of them entered the screening room, there were only about ten people sitting inside, all in pairs, either there for blind dates or on dates.
The movie theater was very dimly lit, which was the perfect atmosphere for a date.
He Chen'an took Wen Xi's hand and led her to the last row, where they sat in the corner chair. The movie had already started before they arrived, so Wen Xi watched it attentively after sitting down.
This film came out last year, and she hasn't seen it yet!
The screen wasn't big, and the picture wasn't clear, so it looked blurry. But watching movies was a rare form of entertainment in this era, so everyone watched with great interest.
However, today's moviegoers all have their own little schemes, so gradually fewer people went to the movies and more people went on dates.
Wenxi noticed that the people sitting in front of her were either leaning together or hugging, and occasionally kissing each other. This dark movie theater was indeed a good place for romance.
So this is how everyone dates.
After leaving the movie theater, the two of them went to the department store together. If they didn't go and wait for the store to close, they wouldn't be able to buy anything today.
Wen Xi didn't want to owe He Chen'an anything and wanted to return the things as soon as possible. What kind of kind person would put a watch worth hundreds of yuan in a lunchbox without the other party knowing?
Is it a confession of love or a marriage proposal?
Even when it comes to proposing marriage, most people wouldn't be this generous.
Wen Xi naturally knew that she had already worn the clothes and could not return them to He Chen'an. Moreover, it would be of no use for He Chen'an, a male, to have a set of women's clothes. So she decided to buy He Chen'an a set of men's clothes. It would be fair to give and take!
Upon arriving at the ready-to-wear section, I saw that summer clothes were already hanging up, but they were all dull and gray, lacking any brightly colored garments.
Wen Xi asked for a military green summer outfit, as well as a white shirt and black trousers. She felt that He Chen'an was tall and had long legs, and that wearing simple and elegant clothes would make him look even cleaner and more cheerful.
"Xiaoxi, are you trying to distance yourself from me?" He Chen'an's tongue almost pierced through his palate!
Wen Xi glared at him fiercely, "What are you thinking? You can buy me things, but I can't buy you things? If you won't let me buy you things, then don't buy me anything for a penny in the future, because I won't accept it."
Even if they really had to draw a line, it wouldn't be now, but when they reached a point where they couldn't go on anymore. At that point, they would naturally have to draw a line. If He Chen'an no longer liked her, treated her badly, or his family opposed their being together, she naturally wouldn't compromise.
She is financially independent, has money and confidence, and can buy whatever she wants and eat whatever she wants. She will never compromise herself for anyone!
Hearing Wen Xi's words, He Chen'an's face lit up with a bright smile. Seeing Wen Xi start picking out dresses again, He Chen'an whispered, "Xiao Xi, I want to see you wearing a dress."
Wen Xi pouted, "Then you definitely don't have a chance now."
She would never wear a skirt out, otherwise she would easily be pointed at and gossiped about in the countryside. At most, she would wear it as pajamas after taking a shower at night, so it would be a wonder if He Chen'an would have a chance to see her!
Wenxi picked out four dresses in different colors. One dress was for each of the three of them, and the other dress was for Lin Yiwan. Lin Yiwan had given her some fruit from her spatial storage, but she had nothing to give back to Lin Yiwan.
Although her check-in system had generated all sorts of strange and unusual items, many of them were out of touch with the times, and she absolutely dared not take them out, otherwise Lin Yiwan might notice something. So she could only go to department stores or supply and marketing cooperatives to buy things that were appropriate for the era.
To the average person, Blake might seem expensive, but to her, that amount of money is nothing.
Wen Xi bought three sets of men's clothing and four dresses. Afterwards, she went upstairs to the watch counter to look at watches. She really wanted to buy the same model of the watch that He Chen'an had given her, but considering that He Chen'an was a doctor, if he wore a watch worth several hundred yuan, people would definitely say he was extravagant. So she decided to buy him an ordinary watch that cost 160 yuan.
He Chen'an already had a watch, so he didn't dare to be so narcissistic as to assume that Wen Xi was picking out a watch for him. He took the things from Wen Xi's hands and left for a moment. When he returned, he had a bag in his hand, but it was impossible to tell what was inside.
