20 A Perfect Movie (2/2)
'He wrapped it around He Xinyan's knees and covered up her legs before he lifted her off the chair. He Xinyan moved a little from the movement but continued to sleep.'
'Her small hand clutched onto Gu Yechen's sleeve as she took in the light and pleasant smell of mint that came from his body.'
'Gu Yechen walked out of the theater and he attracted glances from several people
all looking at him and the woman in his arms.'
'Chen Xiao was waiting outside and he almost tripped over himself when he saw that his boss was carrying He Xinyan in his arms.'
'What happened? Did Miss He faint? Or get hurt? Chen Xiao ran over to Gu Yechen and stretched out his arms in a way to suggest for Gu Yechen to hand He Xinyan over to him
”What's wrong with Miss He? Is she hurt?”'
'Gu Yechen kept a strong grip on He Xinyan and ignored Chen Xiao as he walked over to the car door
”She's sleeping.”'
'Chen Xiao froze and forgot to open the door for Gu Yechen. That's it? She's just sleeping? His boss really carried Miss He from the movie theater all the way to the car just because she was sleeping.'
'If it had been anyone else
even his mom
Chen Xiao was certain that Mr. Gu would have probably woken the person up before walking away on his own.'
'Chen Xiao started the car and made a mental note to gain the favor of Miss He because there was a high chance that she would be their future lady boss!'
'The car drove to a restaurant and when the car came to a stop
He Xinyan woke up.'
'”Where are we?” She asked as a yawn escaped her mouth.'
'”Let's go eat lunch.” Gu Yechen helped He Xinyan unbuckle her seatbelt and got out of the car. Still in a daze
He Xinyan did the same and followed Gu Yechen into the high-end restaurant.'
'The restaurant was designed in an oriental theme and even the door was made of gold. There were two large golden lion sculptures at the front of the restaurant and they sparkled under the bright sunlight.'
'”Welcome
Mr. Gu.” The waiter took a second look at the woman walking behind Gu Yechen before leading them over to the private VIP room in the back of the restaurant.'
'Once they sat down
over ten dishes of food were carried out onto the table. Since He Xinyan only ate an ice cream since the morning
she was starving.'
'At once
she picked up her chopsticks and began eating. After she had finished a whole bowl of rice
she suddenly remembered that she wasn't alone.'
'He Xinyan awkwardly looked up and saw that Gu Yechen was smiling at her. She squeezed out a smile and pointed at the food on the table
”Eat. . . eat. . .”'
'”I like watching you eat
” Gu Yechen replied.'
'”Ha. . . ha. . . ha. . . okay then.” He Xinyan looked back down as she continued eating. The food was really good.'
'He Xinyan ended up eating almost half of the food on the table whereas Gu Yechen only ate a few bites. She felt genuinely bad for eating so much
so when the waiter brought the check up
she immediately snatched it and said
”I'll pay for the meal. . .”'
'Her voice died down after seeing the number on the check.'
'4573 dollars. . . A meal for two people cost 4573 dollars! A four person family could eat a hundred meals with that amount of money.'
'Gu Yechen pulled out his wallet and grabbed the check away from He Xinyan
”I brought you here. I'll pay.”'
'He Xinyan bit her lips and didn't say anything more. As they waited for the worker to bring the check back
He Xinyan pulled out her phone and scrolled through the news.'
'A picture popped up in the hottest topics and it looked quite familiar but she couldn't figure out where she had seen it.'
'After staring at the picture blankly for several seconds
her eyes widened. The dress the woman was wearing in the picture. . . her dress.'
'This picture was of her and Gu Yechen!'
