Chapter 25 Movie
Chi Jinjin had never seen Nan Xuqiu so intimate with a girl before. It was as if they had known each other for a long time.
An idea that almost tore her heart apart came to her mind - is this his girlfriend?
She didn't want to guess like this, but all the scenes before her seemed to confirm her guess.
Tang Shi came out of the bathroom and returned to her side, but saw that she was staring at one place. She also looked over curiously and found out that Song Ci and others were there.
"Could that girl be Senior Nan's girlfriend?" Tang Shi asked in surprise, puzzled. "Isn't he with Shen Moli?"
Chi Jinjin explained for him woodenly, "Senior is not with Shen Moli. Shen Moli has always liked Song Ci."
"Song, Song Ci?" Tang Shi glanced at the person in the distance and said, "That's... really blind."
"Tang Shi, I don't want to play anymore." Chi Jinjin said dejectedly.
Tang Shi was puzzled and said with a lingering feeling, "No, how long have we been playing? Let's play a little longer."
"Next time, or... you play, I'll go back first." Chi Jinjin put the milk tea in her hand and left the video game arcade dejectedly.
She walked in a daze on the crowded street, with no light in her eyes. Her mind was full of the intimate scene between the girl and Nan Xuqiu. It was like a knife piercing her heart, stirring in her body, making her internal organs ache and her heart felt like it was torn apart.
Chi Jinjin really couldn't walk anymore, her body felt heavier than ever before. She sat down on the bench next to her, staring blankly at her toes, tears rolling out of her eyes and falling silently.
She had never owned him, but she had truly felt the pain of losing him time and time again.
Secretly liking someone is probably a hysterical one-man show. She is the one who is immersed in the show, but he is the one who is completely unaware. His heart beats faster ten thousand times, and he sighs ten thousand times with his head down.
"Jinjin." Tang Shi came to her side without knowing when, and asked worriedly and confusedly, "You...what's wrong with you? Why are you crying?"
Chi Jinjin was filled with sadness and speechless.
Tang Shi thought about what happened just now and asked belatedly, "You, you also like Senior Nan, right?"
Her worries were touched upon, and Chi Jinjin's tears fell even harder. She couldn't hold them back no matter how hard she tried, and her hands were shaking.
Tang Shi reached out and hugged Chi Jinjin, comforting her and saying, "If you're sad, just cry..."
Chi Jinjin finally stopped holding back her tears in Tang Shi's arms and burst into tears.
"Tang Shi." On the way back in the car, Chi Jinjin said with a tearful voice, wiping the tears from her face, "Thank you for what happened just now."
"It's okay." Tang Shi put his arm around her shoulders and comforted her, "There are many good men in this world. If this one is gone, there will definitely be others in the future. Don't be sad."
Chi Jinjin nodded.
At night, Chi Jinjin lay in bed, looking at her phone under the quilt, reading their few words over and over again. Finally, she turned off the phone and murmured, "Nan Xuqiu, I don't want to like you anymore."
She slowly closed her eyes, but tears slid down from the corners of her eyes and fell on the pillow...
After training, Tang Shi felt thirsty, so she ran to the store to buy a bottle of water. She unscrewed the cap and poured it into her mouth. Suddenly, someone grabbed her collar.
“Who is it?”
Tang Shi turned around angrily and saw that it was Song Ci.
Song Ci asked with a dark face, "I asked you to come over to play games yesterday, why didn't you come?"
"You're so funny. Just because you pull me in, do I have to come in?" Tang Shi rolled her eyes.
"You..." Song was at a loss for words.
Tang Shi looked at Song Ci and suddenly thought of something. His attitude towards him became slightly better. He said, "Hey, I want to ask you something..."
Chi Jinjin was doing homework on the table. Tang Shi ran to her side and said excitedly, "Jinjin, I have good news for you!"
"What?" Chi Jinjin looked at her and asked.
Tang Shi said, "It turns out we had a misunderstanding yesterday. The girl holding Senior Nan's arm was Song Ci's younger sister. She had been studying abroad and transferred here to study at No. 1 Middle School. She's not Senior Nan's girlfriend at all. They just hang out together and have a good relationship."
"How do you know?" Chi Jinjin asked in surprise and uncertainty.
Tang Shi replied, "I'm asking about Song poetry."
Chi Jinjin recalled the girl's appearance. At that time, she just thought she was very cute. Now she realized that she and Song Ci did look a bit similar. They both had a mixed-race look, but her mixed-race look was not as strong as Song Ci's. She looked more this way.
"Don't worry, I didn't tell him that you like Senior Nan. That idiot Song Ci won't think too much of it." Tang Shi said with a smile, "How about it, are you happy now? You still have a chance to pursue Senior Nan."
"What do you mean by pursuing or not? Tang Shi, you...don't talk nonsense." Chi Jinjin blushed, turned her head away shyly and continued writing, but a smile appeared on her face again.
On the weekend, Chi Jinjin went to the library to study early in the morning. After finishing a whole set of questions, it was already past eleven o'clock in the afternoon.
She raised her head and felt a little stuffy in her chest and her head was dizzy.
So Chi Jinjin put back the borrowed materials, took her notebook and schoolbag, and went to the rooftop alone.
The breeze on the rooftop was very refreshing, blowing on her body, making her feel much more comfortable.
She grabbed the iron railings of the guardrail with both hands and looked down at the entire campus. It had already put on its yellow autumn clothes. Many sparrows were strolling on the playground. When people walked by, they flew up in groups like a flock of pigeons.
“The scenery here is quite nice, isn’t it?”
Nan Xuqiu's voice suddenly sounded beside her. Chi Jinjin turned her head and realized that he had walked up to her.
Chi Jinjin was shocked, "Senior Nan?"
"Long time no see, Junior Sister Xiaochi." Nan Xuqiu smiled at her.
Come to think of it, they hadn't seen each other for a few days, at least for him.
"Long time no see." Chi Jinjin replied to him.
Nan Xuqiu said, "I have to thank you for saving my life that day."
Chi Jinjin looked at his lips and suddenly remembered what happened that day. Her face flushed slightly and she smiled awkwardly, "No, you're welcome. I just happened to be passing by and I happen to know how to swim."
"By the way, have the bad guys been caught?" Chi Jinjin deliberately changed the subject to avoid embarrassment.
Nan Xuqiu nodded, "He was caught that day."
"That's good." Chi Jinjin smiled, but her hands were almost breaking the railing.
Nan Xuqiu suddenly turned sideways and asked her, "Xiao Chi, do you have any plans for the afternoon?"
"Ah? No." Chi Jinjin didn't understand why he asked this and replied subconsciously.
"Then can I invite you to go to the movies with me?" Nan Xuqiu said.
Can I invite you to the movies?
Chi Jinjin's heart trembled violently. She didn't expect that Nan Xuqiu would actually invite her to see a movie?
Although she has never seen the movie, she often sees that when she watches TV series, the male protagonist will invite the female protagonist to watch a movie when he is pursuing her.
Why did he invite me to the movies?
Should I agree?
Chi Jinjin's mind was suddenly filled with a thousand thoughts, all kinds of questions and entanglements, but her mouth was one step faster than her brain and said, "Okay."
After saying that, Chi Jinjin's mind went blank.
"Let's go then." Nan Xuqiu said with a smile.
Chi Jinjin followed him foolishly, and they left the library together.
When they reached the school gate, Chi Jinjin came to her senses and said, "Um... I haven't put my books and schoolbag back yet..."
"It's okay, you can put it in my car later." Nan Xuqiu said, and took off the schoolbag from her shoulder and held it for her.
Chi Jinjin quickly said, "No, no, senior, I can get it myself."
"It's okay." Nan Xuqiu didn't give it to her and continued walking forward.
Chi Jinjin chased him all the way and came to his car with him. He took out the car keys from his pocket, pressed the button towards the car, then walked forward and opened the passenger door, put her schoolbag on the seat, turned around and motioned her to get in the car.
Chi Jinjin sat in carefully.
Nan Xuqiu returned to the driver's seat. Chi Jinjin saw that he had fastened his seat belt, so she quickly fastened it as well, and sat there obediently, not daring to move.
Although she didn't know what kind of car Nan Xuqiu owned, Tang Shi once told her that he was the only one in the entire City A who owned this car.
Nan Xuqiu glanced at Chi Jinjin, who was sitting upright with a serious expression. He couldn't help but smile softly and said to her, "You're so nervous, are you afraid of my driving skills?"
"Ah?" Chi Jinjin looked at him blankly.
Nan Xuqiu said, "You don't have to be so nervous. I have a driver's license, I'm not driving without a license."
Chi Jinjin finally realized that she had exposed her true feelings. She smiled awkwardly and quickly relaxed to make herself look more natural.
Nan Xuqiu started the car. His driving skills were really good. He drove very smoothly without any bumps.
Chi Jinjin secretly looked at him who was driving beside her. He looked focused and calm, his profile was so handsome, and his jawline was so perfect that it seemed like it was carefully designed. Chi Jinjin also discovered that he had a mole on his neck.
It is said that wise people do not fall in love, but she always makes the same mistake, becoming more and more addicted to his tenderness.
"Junior Xiaochi, what movie do you want to watch?" Nan Xuqiu suddenly turned his head and looked at her.
Chi Jinjin quickly retracted her gaze and said, "I, I don't care. I haven't seen any movies, so I don't know what movies are good."
"So, do you like watching comedies, tragedies, horror or science fiction suspense?" Nan Xuqiu continued to ask.
Chi Jinjin replied without hesitation, "Comedy."
"Okay, I understand." Nan Xuqiu nodded, as if he had made a decision.
The car slowly stopped in front of the cinema.
Nan Xuqiu unbuckled his seat belt and looked at Chi Jinjin. Chi Jinjin didn't know why he suddenly looked at her like that and stared at him blankly.
He smiled at her and suddenly leaned over. Chi Jinjin's breathing suddenly stopped and she couldn't help but clench her palms.
Nan Xuqiu opened the car door for her and said to her, "We're here, get out of the car. Be careful not to bump your head."
"Yeah." Chi Jinjin came back to her senses, quickly unbuckled her seat belt, lowered her head and got out of the car.
She put the backpack in his car. After Nan Xuqiu locked the car, he took Chi Jinjin into the cinema.
This was Chi Jinjin's first time in a movie theater. She was nervous and excited, and looked around curiously.
Nan Xuqiu went to the front desk and bought two movie tickets. Because there were still twenty minutes before the show started, they needed to wait outside for a while.
She and Nan Xuqiu sat by the window tacitly. Nan Xuqiu handed her a movie ticket, then bought two cups of Coke and a large bucket of popcorn, and pushed one of the cups of Coke in front of Chi Jinjin.
"Thank you, senior." Chi Jinjin took it, took a small sip, looked up at him, but didn't expect that he was also looking at her.
Chi Jinjin panicked and quickly turned her head to look out the window.
Nan Xuqiu looked at his watch and said, "It's almost time, let's go in."
Chi Jinjin nodded and stood up.
Nan Xuqiu took her Coke.
"Senior, let me get it myself." Chi Jinjin said quickly.
Nan Xuqiu stuffed popcorn into her arms and said, "Girls, take the popcorn."
"Okay, okay." Chi Jinjin followed him to the ticket inspection office with popcorn in her arms. The staff tore off half of the ticket and returned the other half to Chi Jinjin.
Then Chi Jinjin followed Nan Xuqiu into the room, which was even bigger than she had imagined.
Nan Xuqiu brought her to the seat, and Chi Jinjin sat down carefully.
"Senior, here's your popcorn." Chi Jinjin returned the popcorn to him.
Nan Xuqiu smiled and said, "Why give it to me? I bought it especially for you."
Chi Jinjin didn't expect that such a big bucket of popcorn was bought specifically for her, and her heart felt very sweet.
People came over one after another, and soon the lights on the field went out, and the surroundings fell into darkness.
Chi Jinjin was a little confused and a little flustered. She didn't like the darkness.
"It's okay, it will be light in a while." Nan Xuqiu seemed to notice Chi Jinjin's uneasiness and slowly comforted her.
Chi Jinjin felt a little embarrassed and said awkwardly, "I've never been to a movie theater before. I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, senior."
Nan Xuqiu laughed and said, "Your behavior reminds me of the time I went to the cinema and went to the wrong show. I originally wanted to see Bumblebee, but ended up watching a sad movie. I was still wondering when my Bumblebee would appear, and I even took someone else's seat."
"It sounds like yours is indeed more socially dead than mine." Chi Jinjin laughed, and the embarrassment and uneasiness were swept away.
At this time, the big screen in front began to light up and the film officially began to show.
Chi Jinjin looked forward.
As the plot became funnier and funnier, there was constant laughter in the venue. Chi Jinjin laughed and glanced at Nan Xuqiu out of the corner of her eye.
She never thought that she would have the opportunity to watch the same movie with him and sit next to him.
After the movie was over, the theater became bright again, and Chi Jinjin and Nan Xuqiu came out of the theater.
"You must be hungry. Do you want to go out for dinner together?" Nan Xuqiu asked.
Chi Jinjin nodded.
Nan Xuqiu took her to the restaurant on the second floor.
"Order whatever you want to eat." Nan Xuqiu pushed the menu in front of her.
Chi Jinjin glanced at the menu and was almost scared to death by the prices on it, but since she was already here, it would be awkward to leave, so she had no choice but to bite the bullet and order two relatively cheap dishes.
