Chapter 20



If it was a suspense novel written by Lu Xingyun, there would be no pictures for her to watch, but a movie would be different. If the atmosphere was scary, it would be even scarier than a TV series.

She doesn't dare!

Lu Xingyun raised his eyebrows: "Are you scared?"

Wen Ruo nodded.

Lu Xingyun glanced at her hand that was holding the hem of her clothes and found that it was held very tightly. He suddenly wanted to laugh: "Why are you scared? Aren't you a fan of that drama?"

"That's different..." Wen Ruo felt guilty and lowered her voice, "That one isn't very scary."

He knows his novels better than anyone else. There are many bloody scenes in them, so they can only be made into web dramas, otherwise they will not pass the review.

"I guarantee that this movie is definitely not as scary as that drama."

But Wen Ruo still didn't let go.

Lu Xingyun bent down and stared at her: "Have you ever seen "The Depth of Sunshine"? If you have, you won't be afraid."

Wen Ruo avoided his gaze: "...Actually, I haven't finished reading it."

"Heh." Lu Xingyun pulled his coat. "Did you not finish reading it, or did you not read it at all?"

To be honest, otherwise there is no point in pulling the hem of the clothes!

If Wen Ruo hesitated, it would be her embarrassment.

"I've already bought the tickets, as well as these potato chips and orange juice..." He hadn't eaten dinner yet, so he just bought a lot of snacks. "You're telling me now you won't watch it? Well, even if you don't want to watch it, you have to give a reason. Don't tell me you've finished watching that drama, but you don't have the guts to watch this movie."

It was indeed her fault. She wasted the movie ticket, which cost nearly a hundred yuan, which was half a day's salary for her.

Wen Ruo couldn't hide it anymore, so she whispered, "I actually only watched half of the episode. It was too scary and I didn't dare to watch the rest."

Seeing how she confessed honestly, Lu Xingyun wondered why he had believed her lies in the first place. He didn't even doubt her and actually thought she was a fan of that drama... So, she never liked Xie Qinglin at all? There was only half an episode and the male lead definitely didn't show his face many times, so how could anyone fall in love with her?

But why did she lie and make up the story of Xie Qinglin?

Lu Xingyun recalled the scene at that time. It was him who asked Wen Ruo who she liked, and she panicked and mentioned a male celebrity.

No wonder he didn’t ask for an autograph or take a photo. This little fool turns out to be a little liar.

But, who does she like? If she doesn't have anyone she likes, she can just say no. Why should she be nervous? A thought suddenly popped into his mind, and Lu Xingyun's eyes narrowed.

Could it be that...

But if so, why doesn't she take the initiative at all?

"Okay, don't watch this one. Change another one." Lu Xingyun asked her to choose again. "There's still time."

Wen Ruo breathed a sigh of relief, as long as he didn't watch that suspense film!

"You choose." He wanted to see.

"If I choose, my original intention will not change."

Wen Ruo:......

"Okay." She looked at the title carefully and fixed her eyes on "Heartbeat". The poster looked very sweet. The handsome male lead was cutting the female lead's hair, with the warm sunshine and a faint golden color behind him.

She wants to see this.

But when she thought of Lu Xingyun sitting next to her, she suddenly couldn't help blushing. She felt embarrassed. No, how about watching a Disney cartoon? It looks funny, not awkward.

"Just..." Who knew that when she was about to name a name, Lu Xingyun said, "Let's watch "Heartbeat"."

Wen Ruo: ...Didn’t you let me choose?

But Lu Xingyun is very fickle: "I changed my mind, this one looks good." In fact, he noticed Wen Ruo's expression, and it was obvious that she liked this one more.

Lu Xingyun went to buy tickets, and then the two of them entered.

This play started earlier than that one, and soon after they sat down, the lights dimmed and the movie began.

Lu Xingyun handed her the popcorn: "Are you hungry?"

"Thank you." She ate one and it tasted delicious.

Lu Xingyun gave her orange juice again and reminded her: "Don't spill it."

Passing this and that, Wen Ruo inexplicably thought of her neighboring classmate who was in love when she was in school. They happened to meet in the cinema, and her boyfriend did the same. He bought a lot of food, fearing that she would not have enough... Thinking of this, her face turned red and her heart was pounding.

No, why is she imagining that? Lu Xingyun is just a good person, he, he is a gentleman!

The film does not cover a long period of time and tells the story of two college students who meet again after graduation. However, surprisingly, the story focuses not on the future but on the past. The film keeps replaying their memories of college and the young love between the two.

This reminded her of herself.

She did study hard before the college entrance examination, but things were different after she was admitted to university. Her roommates often took her to read romance novels and told her all kinds of love guides. She was confused, but when she met Lu Xingyun later, she immediately understood what love meant.

It's actually an instinct.

You don’t need anyone to teach you, you don’t need to learn, you will awaken as long as you meet that person.

She hid for several years, secretly, for fear of being discovered, but she never expected that one day she would watch a romance movie with Lu Xingyun.

Actually...it's quite romantic, although she is the only one who knows this story.

Wen Ruo suddenly felt a little happy.

She turned her head and looked at Lu Xingyun quietly.

Who would have thought that he was looking at her too.

When their eyes met, Wen Ruo's head buzzed and he quickly turned his head away.

Lu Xingyun saw that her ears were red. Even in such dim light, her ears were so bright red.

He couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth. She must have wanted to peek at him just now, but she didn't expect to be caught.

Wen Ruo didn't dare to turn around again.

At the end, the two protagonists in the movie embraced and kissed each other passionately. She watched for a few seconds, then lowered her head, embarrassed to stare.

The lights came on again and the audience stood up and left.

The cinema was very large, with hundreds of seats. Wen Ruo slowly walked forward with the crowd.

Maybe it was because it was the weekend, it was very crowded. She felt people in front and behind her. Just when she was about to look at Lu Xingyun, her hand was suddenly held by someone.

Wen Ruo was startled and tensed up. At this moment, Lu Xingyun's voice came to her ears: "It's me."

In his other hand he held a garbage bag.

It was him. Wen Ruo felt relieved, but her heart soon rose again... He was holding her hand!

Those hands that usually waved in front of her, with broad palms and long fingers, now covered her palms and wrapped them. On this winter day, there is a slight warmth, like the sunshine breaking through the clouds.

She can barely walk anymore.

The little hand was stiff and motionless in Lu Xingyun's palm. When Lu Xingyun tightened his grip slightly, she reacted a little, but soon froze again.

Lu Xingyun lowered his eyes and saw that Wen Ruo's face was red, but she did not struggle.

If she didn't like it, she would definitely resist, just like what she did to Pan Lie. Didn't she make it clear in the end?

He became more certain.

The two men walked outside and Lu Xingyun threw the things into the trash can.

The air was a little chilly, which made Wen Ru feel refreshed.

"Mr. Lu..." She moved her fingers.

He didn't move, but looked at her: "I didn't expect your hands to be so small."

It was curled up so small and soft, and the longer he held it, the more reluctant he was to let it go.

Wen Ruo didn't know how to answer.

Her mind is in a mess now!

"Do you know why I am like this?" Lu Xingyun asked. He really wanted to know what answer Wen Ruo would come up with.

Wen Ruo's voice was weak: "...I'm afraid of getting lost."

Well, he was not disappointed.

A three-year-old child? Are you afraid of getting lost in the cinema? Why didn't she say it? Are you afraid that she would be abducted by others? But Lu Xingyun smiled. Okay, he wanted to see how long Wen Ruo could stay in his turtle shell.

"Let's go. I'll take you back." He let go of her hand.

The cinema is not far from Wangchun Community. Originally, Chengrui Company is also close to home, so Ji Yun particularly hopes that Wen Ruo can work there.

The car arrived very quickly.

Wen Ruo was worried and was in a hurry to come down.

Lu Xingyun said calmly: "You still owe me a meal."

"I asked Sister Zhang to deliver Three Cups Chicken," Wen Ruo was puzzled. "You ate it, didn't you? Sister Zhang said it was delivered."

Oh……

Lu Xingyun turned sideways and unbuckled her seatbelt: "I don't just want food, I want people and food together."

He was too close, his short hair almost touched her cheek. Wen Ruo was so nervous that she couldn't breathe. She recalled Zhang Lu's words in her ears, "Mr. Lu wants to see you."

Doesn’t he really just want food?

No, no, it's not.

She wanted to shake her head.

"Did you hear me? Come and deliver it next Monday." I just don't believe that he can't have it. It was okay when he was a manager, but not now that he is a president?

"What if Manager Yu..." Wen Ruo didn't want to leave his post without permission.

"Then call me in advance and I'll tell him."

say what? She said that as an assistant, she was going to deliver food to the president? Just thinking about it felt... ambiguous, and Wen Ruo didn't know how to answer.

He ruffled her hair: "How did you get into Huiyang University?"

What? Wen Ruo was stunned. What did he mean?

"Okay, you go up." Lu Xingyun sat up straight again.

Wen Ruo was so scared by him that he got out of the car and ran straight home.

Seeing that his daughter came back so late, Ji Yun asked, "Why are you working overtime so late?"

"Yeah." Wen Ruo felt that she could no longer hide it, and hurried to the bathroom, "Mom, I want to take a shower. I'm sweating."

"Oh..." Ji Yun was a little surprised, "Then I'll get you your pajamas."

There was already the sound of rushing water inside.

Wen Ruo wiped her face with cold water, trying to sober herself up.

But being awake doesn’t mean that what happened just now didn’t happen. Lu Xingyun held her hand and asked her to deliver the meal in person. He wouldn’t really…

No, no.

No, it was possible, and she couldn't convince herself no matter how stupid she was.

It’s over. How will she face Lu Xingyun next time?

Wen Ruo covered her face.

Happy and panic!
