Chapter 227 I Love You
Shen Zhichu's attention was divided, sometimes on the movie, sometimes on the couple in the front seat. In short, he couldn't concentrate on either.
Shen Zhichu suddenly realized that what was in front of him seemed to be blocked by something, and it became blurry and unclear.
The women in the movie are indeed pitiful. Their youthful and ignorant infatuation and beautiful vows have become memories hidden in the deepest part of their hearts.
Suffering from Alzheimer's disease, she forgot everyone but the person she loved, but in the end that person didn't want her anymore.
Shen Zhichu couldn't help but put herself into the plot of the movie. Her memory is getting worse and worse. She thought she could recover by taking medicine properly, but now her memory is not as clear as before.
She was beginning to wonder if she also had Alzheimer's disease. If she became like the woman in the movie, would Li Jingshen also not want her?
Shen Zhichu fell into anxiety and fear, and his brain began to wander uncontrollably.
"Idiot." The man sitting next to her suddenly interrupted Shen Zhichu's thoughts and cut off the pain in her heart.
The movie continued. Suddenly, she felt a heaviness on her shoulder. Shen Zhichu's face froze. She turned her head and saw that the man sitting next to her had fallen asleep on her shoulder.
In the darkness, Shen Zhichu looked at the man's face in the faint light. He was even more handsome than she had imagined. He was breathtaking at first sight. His facial features were three-dimensional and deep, and his eyelashes were very long. Shen Zhichu was a little curious about what the man would look like when he opened his eyes.
Shen Zhichu came back to her senses, her face turning a little blue. She patted the man's arm: "Sir, wake up!"
The man's eyelashes trembled but he didn't wake up. After a few muffled groans, he fell into a deeper sleep.
Shen Zhichu frowned and pushed his shoulder to push him away, but unexpectedly the man's upper body tilted and slid directly into her arms.
Chen Zhichu stared at him blankly. Wasn't he feeling uncomfortable with the handrail between them?
No matter how hard Shen Zhichu tried or how loud he tried, he couldn't wake him up. Shen Zhichu began to wonder if this person did it on purpose.
The people sitting around turned their heads to look at her because of the noise, and Shen Zhichu was at a loss for what to do for a moment.
She didn't dare to make any loud noise in the cinema. She could only force herself to stay focused on the screen. The movie was already three-quarters through and would be over in at most half an hour.
Shen Zhichu forced herself to sit motionless in the chair. After a few minutes, the phone in her pocket vibrated. She took out the phone with one hand and flipped to the text message. It was from Li Jingshen.
Ask her if she has eaten.
Shen Zhichu replied, still watching the movie, her fingertips trembling uncontrollably due to the injury, and it took her a long time to reply just a few words.
After replying the text message, she put her phone back into her pocket. The movie was almost over. She didn't care to see the ending. Ten minutes later, the movie finally ended.
Shen Zhichu breathed a sigh of relief. It was the first time she felt so exhausted after watching a movie. She didn't leave in a hurry because she was in the last row and waited for the people in front of her to get up and leave before she shook the man in her arms vigorously.
"Sir, wake up, the movie is over!"
The man finally opened his eyes in a daze. His light brown eyes were misty, revealing a kind of weird handsomeness, an indescribable sexiness and danger.
Because he had just woken up, there were still tears hanging on his long eyelashes and his hair was a little messy.
He yawned with his mouth open, sat up straight and supported his waist, then looked at Shen Zhichu beside him: "Sorry, the movie was too boring and I couldn't help falling asleep."
He smiled apologetically: "As an apology, let me buy you lunch."
The man was very polite, but Shen Zhichu inexplicably repelled him and didn't want to get too close to him.
I was curious about his eyes just now, but when the man opened them, I saw his light brown pupils and Shen Zhichu felt as if he was frozen to death. He felt fear subconsciously and his back went cold in just a moment.
Even she herself didn't know why she was so scared when she saw his eyes, and she clenched her right hand tightly on the armrest.
"No need." Shen Zhichu stood up and wanted to escape, but she didn't expect the man to suddenly grab her hand and look at her with a smile.
"We are so destined to be together, can't we chat for a while?"
"No, I want to go home..." Shen Zhichu always felt like she was being stripped naked and seen through by him when he was staring at her. The man's eyes were full of murderous power. Shen Zhichu vaguely felt that her healed wound began to hurt again.
She even heard auditory hallucinations, telling her to leave this place quickly and stay away from this man.
Shen Zhichu pursed his lips nervously, pulled his hand back and walked quickly towards the door.
After walking out, I found that it was raining heavily outside. The top floor of the shopping mall was made of transparent glass, and the rain splashed a series of water splashes on it. Shen Zhichu raised his head and couldn't help shivering while standing in the ventilated corridor.
"You can't go home in such a heavy rain."
A familiar voice came from behind him, Shen Zhichu turned his head and saw that it was indeed the man in the cinema just now.
Shen Zhichu didn't want to pay attention to him, so she took out her mobile phone, and a hot search popped up as she connected to the Internet.
——Heavy rain in J City.
She clicked on the trending searches, which contained many trending videos. Judging from the time they were posted, it had been raining heavily for half an hour, and the rain was still going strong.
I didn’t think much of it inside the mall, but when I clicked on the video, I realized that the rain was quite scary. Even an umbrella couldn’t protect me from the strong wind and downpour.
The man stood aside and watched Shen Zhichu flipping through her phone without saying a word, but when he saw her fingertips, the upward curve of his mouth deepened a lot.
Seeing Shen Zhichu put down his phone, the man said, “Let’s be friends. My name is Lu Tingchuan.”
Shen Zhichu looked at the hand stretched out in front of her, not knowing whether to shake it or not. Suddenly, a handsome man appeared beside her, attracting the attention of many people.
Shen Zhichu sighed secretly, stretched out his hand and shook it with the other party: “Shen Zhichu.”
Fortunately, the man stopped at that point and just shook her hand lightly before letting go.
"Miss Shen probably doesn't have many friends, right?" Lu Tingchuan said with a timely smile on his face, looking into Shen Zhichu's eyes without any hesitation.
It's not that she doesn't have many friends, but that she has no friends at all. It is said that when a person is lonely to a certain extent, he will go to the movies alone, go to a hot pot restaurant alone, or go to KTV alone.
Now Chen Zhichu watches movies alone. He is used to being alone and doesn't feel lonely anymore.
"Since we know each other's names, we're friends. As friends, isn't it natural for us to get to know each other and have a meal together?"
Shen Zhichu felt a little uncomfortable with his gaze, and her eyes darted around. Seeing that someone was still staring at her, she nodded hurriedly.
"Um."
Lu Tingchuan smiled happily, and his light brown pupils became deeper, like amber.
There are already a lot of people eating at this time, and the heavy rain prevents people from going out, resulting in the dining area being packed.
Lu Tingchuan walked proudly beside Shen Zhichu. The man was handsome and the woman was beautiful. They turned heads all the way. Lu Tingchuan brought Shen Zhichu to a high-end Western restaurant.
The layout of this restaurant is obviously prepared for couples. There are only a few large tables, and the rest are all double tables. The chairs are in the shape of a heart, there are two red roses on the table, and even the paper towels are folded into the shape of roses.
After Shen Zhichu entered, he didn't think much about it until he sat down and noticed something was wrong.
The waiter came over with the menu, and Shen Zhichu saw a row of brightly lit couple's set meals at a glance.
Shen Zhichu sat opposite Lu Tingchuan and watched him skillfully order a few dishes. Then he pushed the menu in front of her and asked her if she wanted to eat anything.
Shen Zhichu was not polite either. She was having dinner with a man she had just met and was not familiar enough to ask him to pay for the meal.
Shen Zhichu planned to split the bill, just like strangers sharing a table. As long as she didn't feel awkward, she wouldn't be the one feeling awkward.
Shen Zhichu ordered a few light dishes and asked for the beef to be cooked medium-rare.
"Would you like some red wine?" Lu Tingchuan asked.
"No." Shen Zhichu lowered her head to look at her phone. Li Jingshen sent her another text message asking her what she had for lunch.
Chen Zhichu replied with two words: steak.
Li Jingshen was worried about her stomach problems, so he was especially careful about her diet. He repeatedly told her to eat less steak and not to use pepper.
Shen Zhichu supported his chin, and his eyes curved up as he looked at the text message.
While waiting for the food, Lu Tingchuan, who was sitting opposite, squinted his eyes and looked at Shen Zhichu, and found that she seemed to have become more beautiful after not seeing her for a few months.
Shen Zhichu felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by him. After hesitating for a moment, he put down his phone and asked, "You have been staring at me. Is there anything you want to tell me?"
Lu Tingchuan smiled mysteriously and said, "This may be a bit abrupt, but I still want to tell you that I like you."
