It was already four o'clock in the afternoon when they came out of the ice rink. Li Xiyue was still full of energy. "Ah Xun, ice skating is so much fun."
"Then come again next time," Chu Xun said with a smile, taking off her hat and scarf.
She was so beautiful that all the men on the ice rink had their eyes glued to her. If he hadn't been there with her, he really wouldn't have felt comfortable letting her come.
He was certain that if he weren't there, incidents like the hooligan deliberately hitting people would still happen.
So take advantage of his free time to accompany her a few more times.
"Great!" Li Xiyue was very happy. "Where to next?"
"Let's go see a movie." Chu Xun started the car. "Yueyue, you rest for a bit, I'll call you when we get there."
Li Xiyue really wanted to rest. She didn't take a nap today and spent half the afternoon ice skating, so she was quite exhausted.
With Chu Xun by her side, she felt very safe and fell asleep in no time.
When he woke up again, he was at the movie theater. Chu Xun had already bought the tickets, a bucket of popcorn, and two bottles of orange soda.
Li Xiyue was as happy as a child, holding the popcorn and munching on it like a little mouse.
Chu Xun smiled indulgently and led her into the movie theater.
The movies from this era were very characteristic of the time, and Li Xiyue found herself falling asleep while watching them.
Suddenly, the movie stopped, and the theater went dark.
The crowd started making a fuss, and the staff said it was a malfunction and would be fixed soon.
Chu Xun held Li Xiyue's hand and gently comforted her, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
Li Xiyue wasn't afraid at all; in fact, she thought that the darkness all around was perfect for doing bad things.
So she wrapped her arms around Chu Xun's neck and kissed him.
Chu Xun felt as if he had been struck by lightning; a surge of emotion exploded in his heart like a bolt of lightning. He closed his eyes and let her do whatever she wanted.
But not long after, the malfunction was fixed and the movie theater lights came back on.
Li Xiyue leaned on Chu Xun's broad shoulder and chuckled to herself.
Chu Xun pulled his coat to cover a certain spot, feeling quite helpless. She had started a fire haphazardly, and he couldn't bear to blame her in the slightest. What could he do but indulge her?
After watching the movie, it was already dark, and the two went home.
At home, the whole family gathered together. Some played cards, some played chess, some watched TV, and the kitchen was also crowded with people, all busy at work.
"Oh, the birthday boy is back."
The aunt and cousins were eating fruit and chatting. When they saw them return, Lü Shishi got up and pulled Li Xiyue to sit down. "The fruit was just cut. Try it."
Her second aunt used a fork to pick up a piece of apple and handed it to her, saying, "Eat apple, it's very sweet."
Li Xiyue took it, took a bite, and found it indeed had a sweet taste. She smiled and said, "Thank you, Second Aunt."
"We're family, no need to be so polite." Her second aunt winked at her.
Lin Min asked, "Did you have fun going out with Ah Xun today?"
"Happy." Li Xiyue felt this was the happiest birthday she had ever had.
Fang Fang said, "It seems that our Xun usually looks aloof, but he is actually quite caring."
Su Yurou nodded. "I've heard that the harder someone is to be moved, the more devoted they are."
"Yueyue, I'm so envious." Lu Shishi looked at Li Xiyue with a smile.
Li Xiyue laughed and retorted, "Don't my cousins treat their wives well? Then whose men are those working in the kitchen?"
