Chapter 108 "Do you want me to kiss you?"
Wenxi followed Shang Chen's gaze.
Unsurprisingly, I saw the young couple having a great time.
She immediately guessed what Shang Chen was thinking.
Wen Xi looked up and calmly asked, "Do you want me to kiss you?"
Shang Chen: "..."
Shouldn't this be a natural and inevitable process?
Wenxi asked the question so seriously, as if she had completed a task.
Shang Chen also had a serious face.
"It's about to start."
Wenxi raised an eyebrow.
You were rejected?
However, Wenxi simply thought that Shang Chen was old-fashioned and not used to being kissed in public.
She glanced down at the tickets, then pulled Shang Chen toward the entrance.
Looking up, I saw Chen Luoan standing in line side by side with a bright and tall beauty.
Their eyes met, and a hint of surprise flashed across Chen Luoan's eyes. He greeted him, "Old Shang, is this your first time watching a movie at the cinema?"
Can you get used to it?
Shang Chen sensed his ill intent. "Looks like you come here often?"
The woman beside him also glanced at him, as if watching a good show.
Chen Luoan cleared his throat: "It's not often, you should go to the back of the line."
Wenxi asked, "Which row are you in?"
"Sixth row." Chen Luoan asked again, "And you guys?"
He didn't want to sit with Shang Chen to watch the movie, afraid of being disturbed.
Wenxi: "Nine rows."
Why did you buy it so late in the book?
"It was a last-minute decision, and there were no good seats left."
As they were chatting, Shang Chen suddenly asked, "Where did you buy the things you have?"
Wen Xi then noticed the popcorn bucket and cola that Chen Luoan was holding.
Wenxi turned her head: "You're eating popcorn?"
Shang paused for a moment, then said, "Not really."
"Then you'll drink Coke?"
"...I won't drink it."
Wenxi: "Then there's no need to buy them, I don't eat these anyway."
Chen Luoan watched the two exchange questions and answers with indifferent expressions, and his eye twitched slightly.
After Wenxi and Shang Chen went around to the back of the line, the woman next to him asked, "Are these two dating?"
Chen Luoan's lips twitched even more violently. "They are husband and wife."
The other person was also taken aback, and after a long while said, "The way you get along is... quite unique."
The two spoke with calm expressions, as if they were participating in a rapid-fire question-and-answer competition.
This was the first time she had ever seen a couple like this.
Chen Luoan: "Anyone who meets Shang Chen will have to deal with him in this way."
"If it weren't for the arranged marriage by his family, he could have remained a bachelor for the rest of his life."
Ye Ying: "You're quite disappointed?"
"A little, actually." Chen Luoan subconsciously reached for a cigarette, but then restrained himself, remembering that smoking was prohibited in movie theaters. "Isn't there a popular saying lately?"
"What did you say?"
"Shang Chen is already married, and we're still single."
Ye Ying seemed not to understand Chen Luoan's hint and reminded him, "It's our turn."
After she finished speaking, she snatched the popcorn bucket from Chen Luoan's hands, hugged it to her arms, and went inside first.
After Chen Luoan finished checking the tickets, he slowly followed.
As soon as Wen Xi arrived at the back, she asked Shang Chen, "Is that President Chen's girlfriend? She has a very elegant air about her."
"no."
Wen Xi asked in confusion: "?"
How could someone as old-fashioned as Shang Chen have friends who engage in promiscuous relationships?
Shang Chen realized she had misunderstood and explained, "The person next to him is named Ye Ying. She is the general manager of Yunji Auto and is quite capable."
"Both of them are a bit introverted, but they don't like to participate in entertainment activities alone, so they often eat and watch movies together."
Yunji Auto is the core industry of the Chen Group and is a large-scale enterprise.
Ye Ying is so young to have risen to the position of general manager, her ability and shrewdness are beyond question, and her future is immeasurable.
Wenxi: "Aren't they boyfriend and girlfriend?"
Shang Chen: "They're just friends, there's no romantic relationship between them."
He paused for a moment, then added, "Sheng An asked me about it at a gathering once, and Chen Luo'an told me himself."
When it was their turn to have their tickets checked, Wenxi didn't ask any more questions.
Wenxi chose a light romantic comedy.
Laughter filled the air around me during the movie.
Wen Xi looked at it casually, glancing at Shang Chen and noticing his upright posture and serious expression.
The man stared intently at the large screen, his brows furrowed.
It felt less like watching a movie and more like watching a flawed plan.
Wenxi: "..."
Just then, Chen Luoan had a sudden inspiration and turned to look for Shang Chen's location.
Seeing the stern and serious face, they instantly fell silent.
It really was... exactly as expected.
Ye Ying happily ate popcorn next to him, one bite at a time, and he seemed quite pleased with himself.
Turning her head, she saw Chen Luoan's sullen face, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Do you want to eat two?"
"Need not."
Ye Ying's good intentions went unappreciated, so she turned her gaze back to the movie screen. "A person of taste."
Chen Luoan: "..."
Was he being mocked again?
Wen Xi tugged at Shang Chen's sleeve and asked softly, "Was the movie not good?"
After a long silence, Shang Chen finally said, "It's alright..."
Judging from his tone, he seemed very reluctant.
Wenxi: "What are you not satisfied with?"
It seemed that Shang Chen finally had something to say after holding back for so long.
"The logic in this movie is not very sound."
Wenxi replied, "Indeed."
Only after receiving approval did Shang Chen slowly begin to speak: "If the female protagonist suspects her husband is a fraudster, shouldn't her first reaction be to call the police? Why did she disguise herself and go to work at her husband's company?"
"If her husband is a fraudster and the company is a fraud ring, isn't she just walking into a trap?"
"Is it illegal for her to steal other people's information to go for job interviews?"
"She went to the same company for two interviews, and each time she wore a different wig and changed her clothes, the entire interview team didn't recognize her?"
"If all fraudulent companies were this stupid, who would they be able to scam?"
Before Wen Xi could speak, the young girl sitting next to him couldn't help but say, "Uncle, it's a comedy movie, you'll lose if you take it too seriously!"
Shang Chen turned his head and stared at the girl who was about the same age as Shang Mu, remaining silent for a long time.
What did you call me?
When the girl saw his face, she smiled awkwardly and said, "Sorry."
"Judging from your clothes and build, I thought you were about the same age as my dad..."
Shang Chen: "..."
Shang Chen's casual wear, besides sportswear, consists mainly of casual suits.
When he left, Wenxi chose a black and gray casual suit for him.
Shang Chen never expected that he would be called "uncle" by a girl who was about the same age as Shang Mu.
The girl mustered her courage and advised, "Brother, it's Chinese New Year, the point of watching a movie is to have fun."
"If you don't like watching it yourself, don't spoil your girlfriend's fun."
"If you keep going like this, you'll be single forever."
Shang Chen pursed his lips: "...Thank you for your suggestion, but I'm already married."
The girl was very sincere in giving advice, but Shang Chen felt like he had been stabbed in the back many times.
Wenxi caught a glimpse of Shang Chen's silent and serious face and couldn't help but chuckle.
She didn't say anything, but simply waved Shang Chen's left hand in front of the girl.
The wedding rings on their hands were eye-catching, and the meaning was clear.
The girl said awkwardly, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry."
Shang silently held Wenxi's hand tightly, his fingertips gently stroking her palm.
Wenxi's palms itched, and she glanced at him.
Shang Chen slowly released the pressure and calmly looked at the movie screen.
Wenxi: "..."
It seems like President Shang's repressed romantic side has intensified a bit?
