Wei Yanzhen gently pulled out a chair for Deng Zhilan and waited for her to sit down before sitting down.
The waiter handed over the menu enthusiastically. Wei Yanzhen took it, browsed through it attentively, and asked Deng Zhilan for her opinion from time to time.
After ordering the dishes, the two smiled at each other, that smile was full of relief and cherishment after going through the ups and downs.
After a while, the dishes were served one after another, and the aroma was fragrant.
Wei Yanzhen took the initiative to pick up some food for Deng Zhilan, and Deng Zhilan looked at him tenderly and said softly, "Thank you."
Just two simple words, yet they contain a thousand words.
While eating, they recalled every detail of their past, including laughter, tears, and more importantly, expectations for the future.
Wei Yanzhen said affectionately: "In the days to come, I will never let you suffer any injustice."
Deng Zhilan nodded slightly, tears of happiness flashing in her eyes.
The meal tasted especially delicious, and every bite was filled with love and hope, as if announcing the official start of their new marriage journey.
After dinner, Deng Zhilan and Wei Yanzhen walked slowly towards the commune cinema.
It was the only cinema in the commune, attracting men, women, young and old from the neighborhood like a magnet.
I could hear the noise of the crowd before I even reached the cinema entrance.
Outside the cinema, people were crowded together, including young men in coarse clothes, girls with pigtails, and couples with children, all of them looking forward to the movie.
After finally squeezing to the ticket window, Wei Yanzhen took great pains to buy two tickets.
Once inside the cinema, it was even more lively.
The worn seats were arranged neatly, but the passage was filled with people who couldn't find a seat.
The air was filled with a unique smell of popcorn and sweat.
They struggled to find their seats among the crowd.
People kept pushing and shoving beside her, and Deng Zhilan was almost unable to stand steadily. Wei Yanzhen hurriedly protected her behind him, using his body to block the crowded crowd for her.
They finally found a seat, and the movie started as soon as they sat down.
The light from the screen shone on their faces, reflecting expressions of excitement and anticipation.
"Lanlan, it's great to have you always by my side."
Wei Yanzhen suddenly said.
Deng Zhilan turned her head and met his eyes, and they couldn't help but smile at each other.
Somehow, Deng Zhilan thought of the plot of the book "䥉㹏". In the end, 䥉㹏 died so miserably. Not only was his body dismembered by the human traffickers, but his body was also thrown into the sea. Just thinking about that scene was horrific.
Deng Zhilan shook Wei Yanzhen's hand and said softly, "Yanzhen, I am also glad that I made the right choice."
Wei Yanzhen felt a sense of comfort in his heart, and even felt that everything he had now was like an illusion.
It's an unreal experience.
He looked at Deng Zhilan who was right beside him, and everything seemed real.
She is his wife and always will be!
