Listening to the incessant rain outside, Ah Li slowly fell asleep again.
On the other side, Yueqing Yang looked at the backpack that had been packed in the corner; he had also prepared a raincoat.
Hiking in the rain with her sounds like a very romantic thing.
However, girls should avoid being in the rain for extended periods, as it is bad for their health.
There's plenty of time; one day they'll go hiking together.
Yang from Yueqing held his phone and asked a friend if the plaster was effective and whether it worked.
The person excitedly sent over the photos, saying the ointment was miraculous, and asked Yang from Yueqing to introduce it, because he felt that selling this ointment would definitely be a huge success.
Yang from Yueqing didn't agree because Su Li doesn't show her face very often these days.
After the scars on her face healed, her live streams were all focused on the paintings she was drawing.
Sometimes I paint flowers, trees, and plants; sometimes I paint landscapes; and sometimes I paint celebrities.
When she first sketched it out, no one could guess what she was drawing. Only when she stopped drawing and moved the drawing back a bit could people see that, oh, that's what it is.
Also, when she draws people or animals, she always adds the eyes last.
The moment the eyes were painted on, the painting seemed to come alive.
Those who frequently watch Ah Li's live streams requested the ointment, and Su Li privately sent it to them.
Su Li never told Yue Qingyang how those people fared afterward.
Yang from Yueqing typed on his phone, wanting to ask her out: "After you wake up, let's go see a movie together. Choose one you like. Let me know when it's time, and I'll pick you up."
After sending the message, Yang from Yueqing started searching for newly released movies.
He also looked up some things to keep in mind when going to the movies with a girl.
When Ah Li woke up, she found the messages on her phone.
She agreed.
Yang from Yueqing arrived very quickly; in fact, he arrived right after sending a message to Ali.
He drove himself here, and he sat in his car waiting downstairs at Ali's place.
When Ali got off the car, Yueqing Yang was standing by the car holding an umbrella.
Ah Li looked at the car next to him in surprise. The person who had worked part-time with her at the milk tea shop just a few years ago was now driving a small four-wheeler.
When Yueqing Yang noticed the surprise in Ali's eyes, he decided to be honest and said, "I went to work part-time at the milk tea shop because I wanted to get to know you and I wanted to be with you."
"So, you're not actually short of that money."
"Um."
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore."
Ahri said that she is not rich yet, so she doesn't want to hear such things.
Yueqing Yang smiled and opened the passenger door for Ali. "Get in."
After the car started, Yang from Yueqing said, "Actually, I'm two years older than you."
He just looks young; he's twenty-six now.
Ahri covered her mouth, "I really couldn't tell."
She thought he was younger than her.
Yang from Yueqing continued, "I'm not usually busy, so I just dabble in stocks to make a little money. I have a car, a house, and savings."
Ahri nodded and said, "That's good."
The movie theater is very close by.
Yueqing Yang drove the car into the parking lot. He unbuckled his seatbelt and slowly looked at Ali, saying, "You are the first person I have ever liked. I like you. I liked you the moment I saw you."
Ah Li's hand was held by him, and she could feel that his palms were sweaty and hot.
Yang from Yueqing said, "You can take your time to consider it, or you can find time to observe me. But before you explicitly reject me, no one else can bypass me, okay?"
Somewhat humble, yet somewhat assertive, this is the Yueqing Yang of the past.
Ah Li felt a little itchy in her heart. She said, "I didn't say I wouldn't agree, it's just that it's raining today."
Yang from Yueqing said, "Yes, the weather forecast on my phone has been predicting rain for the past two days."
"Then it will be inconvenient to go out to buy groceries."
It was raining, and everything was wet, which bothered Ahri.
"I'll buy it, and I can also cook."
Yang from Yueqing has always believed that men who can cook are a plus.
Ahri's eyes lit up. "Then, will you cook whatever I want to eat?"
"Yes, if there's anything I don't know, I'll learn it."
Yang from Yueqing spoke very seriously, and Ali listened with pleasure.
"Let's go see a movie then."
Ali chose a suspenseful blockbuster, the kind that's really mind-bending.
The two of them only bought a bucket of popcorn and a cup of cola.
Yueqing Yang blushed because when the movie went dark, Ali kissed him.
They touched him and then left, before he could even react.
When the light appeared, Yueqing Yang looked at Ah Li, as if everything that had just happened was his illusion.
Ah Li calmly ate her popcorn, while Yue Qingyang picked up the Coke that was next to her.
Yueqing Yang bit down on the straw, somewhat unhappy. He didn't even have time to feel it before she left.
After the movie ended, Yueqing Yang took Ali's hand and walked towards the parking lot.
A restless little beast stirred within him, wanting to do something.
Ahri's hand was held tightly by Yueqing Yang. The cola was not finished, and there was still popcorn left.
As soon as the two reached the car, Ahri was trapped between the car and him.
Yueqing Yang was very close to Ali, his breath brushing against her face. "We're boyfriend and girlfriend now, aren't we?"
"Um."
As soon as Ali finished answering, Yueqing Yang's kiss landed on her lips. He mumbled, "Now I should kiss you."
