Pursuing Her Best Friend after Confession Failed-Chapter 99 - 85: Romantic Scenery in the Cinema (Please Subscribe)_2
"That scumbag... What could possibly be misunderstood? And to think you were still so devoted to him. He couldn’t stand the slightest test of love."
Bai Weixi stared blankly into space for a long moment before replying, "Yuchen, you should try to be more understanding of Xu Zhi and not lose your temper so easily. Don’t let your relationship suffer because of me. I hope the two of you can be together forever."
Wang Yuchen huffed, "Humph, I really don’t want to deal with him anymore."
"Bai, can I come see you tomorrow? We haven’t seen each other in so long. I have so, so much I want to tell you in person."
Bai Weixi also had a great deal she wanted to confide in her best friend. "Mmm, okay. I have a lot I want to tell you, too." 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖
Wang Yuchen continued to complain, "Bai, tell me, why are guys so fickle?"
"I heard from other classmates that Gao Hui and Xu Zhenzhi, that couple from our class, had been together since our first year of high school... Yet, just over ten days into university, Gao Hui caught him hooking up with another girl..."
"Men are really no good..."
...
Inside the movie theater, Li Yuan held the hand of a shy Xia Zhijin, whose head was bowed, in his left hand, and a bucket of popcorn in his right.
The two entered the theater and sat in a corner of the last row. A few other students were scattered throughout the hall.
"Zhijin, the movie today is called ’WALL-E.’ It was just released in the country not long ago. It’s a pretty interesting film."
Smiling, Li Yuan introduced the film as he lifted the armrest between their seats. He scooted closer to Xia Zhijin, then naturally pulled her into his embrace.
Xia Zhijin’s body tensed immediately. She shyly lowered her head, her heart pounding erratically and her cheeks flushing as if she had a fever.
Li Yuan chuckled, picked up a piece of popcorn, and lovingly fed it to her.
Xia Zhijin whispered, her voice barely audible for fear of disturbing others, "Li... Li Yuan, I’m full."
Li Yuan leaned toward her ear, his lips lightly brushing against the lobe. It felt hot to the touch.
"Zhijin, what did you just say?"
Xia Zhijin hadn’t expected Li Yuan to be so bold as to kiss her ear in a public place like a movie theater.
"I... I’m full!"
"Hehe. Okay, the movie’s about to start. Let’s focus on the film."
Xia Zhijin’s cheeks were flushed. As the cinema lights dimmed, WALL-E appeared on screen.
In his previous life, Li Yuan had seen ’WALL-E’ multiple times and knew the plot like the back of his hand. Xia Zhijin, on the other hand, was in a movie theater for the first time in her life. Watching the massive screen, she was quickly engrossed.
Li Yuan watched for a short while before losing interest. Unconsciously, he placed his hand on Xia Zhijin’s thigh, caressing it gently through her jeans.
So soft, so springy. I could enjoy these long legs for a lifetime, not just a year...
Men’s preferences may vary, but an obsession with long legs might just be innate.
Li Yuan felt it was a pity that Xia Zhijin was so innocent and shy. Otherwise, if she wore a miniskirt and some black stockings, she could drive me absolutely wild...
Hehe, once I get to know Zhijin better, I’ll buy her a few pairs to wear at home, just for me... Li Yuan’s thoughts drifted, and a pleased smile graced his lips.
"Li... Li Yuan..."
Xia Zhijin’s voice was barely a whisper. Her body trembled as she glanced up at Li Yuan. Seeing him engrossed in the movie, she blushed and ultimately decided not to interrupt him.
As the movie progressed, Li Yuan’s large hands roamed restlessly over Xia Zhijin’s thighs.
At first, he only touched her thighs, which she could endure.
But soon, as if unsatisfied, his devilish hands continued their ascent, traversing the endless plains until they reached a majestic peak...
Xia Zhijin’s cheeks were burning hot and vividly flushed. Her small hands firmly grabbed Li Yuan’s devilish hand, halting its further exploration.
"Li... Li Yuan, don’t... don’t touch me there!"
Li Yuan feigned ignorance and whispered into her ear, "Zhijin, what did you say?"
Even someone as naive as Xia Zhijin knew he was pretending. She huffed softly, "Li Yuan, you’re a big scoundrel."
"If you... if you do that again, I... I’ll get really angry."
Li Yuan stopped his hand. Chuckling, he nodded. "Alright, I won’t move. I’ll just keep it here, okay?"
Xia Zhijin gripped his hand tightly and said shyly, "You better not move it again."
Li Yuan quickly agreed, "Okay, okay. I promise I won’t move."
His hand rested on her soft waist, and he was already ecstatic.
Hehe, I must have misunderstood my dear Zhijin. She’s... quite well-endowed. Truly blessed by nature!
...
Xia Zhijin was engrossed in the movie, while Li Yuan was engrossed in watching Xia Zhijin. They each had their roles, and both found their own joy.
The two-and-a-half-hour movie flew by for Li Yuan. Before he knew it, it was more than halfway over. He felt a twinge of regret, wishing time would slow down.
For Xia Zhijin, however, the experience was incredibly "thrilling." Li Yuan’s devilish hand was never still, always launching a sneaky, dishonorable attack when she wasn’t paying attention, which left her blushing for the entire film.
Suddenly, the scene on screen showed two of the humans, overcome with emotion, breaking free from their seats to stand and kiss.
Xia Zhijin shyly glanced at Li Yuan, her mind flashing back to the unforgettable moment they shared after lunch.
The instant Xia Zhijin looked at him, Li Yuan’s gaze met hers.
She hurriedly lowered her head in shyness. The next moment, she saw his face swooping down to kiss her.
After a long while, Xia Zhijin shyly broke free from Li Yuan’s embrace and buried her head, not daring to look at him again.
Li Yuan chuckled and wiped his mouth, a trace of glistening saliva remaining on his lips. So very, very sweet...
Just as I thought. Movie theaters really are the best place for a couple’s date. So convenient.
...
When the movie ended around nine o’clock at night, Xia Zhijin kept her head bowed shyly as Li Yuan led her out of the theater by the hand.
Li Yuan was overjoyed. It was one of the handful of truly happy days he’d had in his two lifetimes combined. Grinning at the bashful Xia Zhijin, he asked, "My dear Zhijin, shall we walk around some more?"
Her cheeks flushed a deep crimson. This first movie of her life had left her with a profound, unforgettable memory.
Hearing Li Yuan’s suggestion to walk more, Xia Zhijin was like a panicked fawn. She quickly shook her head, her shy voice laced with a hint of pleading.
"No... no, thank you, Li Yuan. I... I need to go back to the dorm."
Li Yuan knew not to push his luck. He had only asked casually, already having anticipated her response.
"Alright, Zhijin. Let’s head back to school then."
...
In front of the girls’ dormitory, Li Yuan, carrying a large bag of snacks, prepared to follow Xia Zhijin upstairs as a matter of course.
Unexpectedly, she spoke up shyly, "Li... Li Yuan, I... I’ll go up by myself."
Li Yuan held up the snack bag. It was filled with various nuts, chocolates, Oreos, cartons of milk, pistachios, and other treats.
"Zhijin, these snacks are heavy. Let me carry them up for you."
This time, Xia Zhijin shook her head firmly. "Li Yuan, I’m very strong. I can carry them."
Seeing her insistence, Li Yuan had no choice but to hand her the bag.
"It’s a six-floor climb. Don’t wear yourself out."
Xia Zhijin took the bag without any apparent struggle, unlike girls who couldn’t even twist open a water bottle. "I won’t. I really am strong."
"Zhijin, send me a message when you get to your room. I’ll come pick you up tomorrow for the company."
Li Yuan made a calling gesture with his hand. I’ve already taken the inhibitor tower today. How far can destroying the nexus be?
Xia Zhijin nodded shyly. "Mmm!"
"Goodbye, my treasured girl!"
"Th-Then, goodbye."
