C341 (2/2)

”You weren't here for the past five years. I've saved up a lot of movies, and I want to watch them with you.” Ji Xiao said indifferently, his long fingers moved around the sensing area as he rummaged through the folders.

Ye Wanqing looked at him absentmindedly. Suddenly, he felt that the side of his face was very warm, and not as stubborn as he appeared.

”Haven't you been to the cinema in the past five years?”

”You're not here, so you don't want to go.”

”…”

Ye Wanqing remembered the first time she went to the cinema with Ji Xiao. It had also been raining heavily that day, so Ye Zhixin found someone to tease her again, causing her to become completely drenched. As she was walking along the road by herself, an umbrella suddenly appeared above her head.

It was the monthly test that day, so more than two hours earlier than usual.

Ye Wanqing hesitated for a moment, then decisively decided to follow Ji Xiao.

He bought her clean clothes and took her to the hotel to clean himself up.

She was sixteen at the time, and he was seventeen, the best and most impulsive age, but that day at the hotel they did nothing and she just changed her clothes and she was so shy her ears were red.

Afraid that it would be hard for her to explain how she changed her clothes when she returned home, Ji Xiao got her clothes to be washed and dried. After waiting a bit longer, he brought her to the cinema to watch a movie.

That was the first time in Ye Wanqing's life that he had ever seen a movie in a cinema complex, and it was a venue.

She clearly remembered that day, the name of the movie Ji Xiao brought her to watch was Throbbing Heart, and she could even remember every single frame of the movie clearly.

It was on that day that she seemed to fall in love with the performance and with the smiling boy.

But she was so humble that she felt dirty even in clean clothes.

At that time, her heart had been beating wildly. She was sweating non-stop as she held onto her clothes, but she didn't even dare to peek at the teenager beside her.

”Take a look at this. It's a very famous comedy.”

Ji Xiao's words pulled Ye Wanqing's thoughts back to reality as the movie began to play on the computer screen. Ji Xiao took off his shoes and sat on the bed, found a comfortable position to lean on the bedside table, then patted on the empty spot beside him, indicating Ye Wanqing to sit beside him.

Just as he relaxed his body and sat down, Ji Xiao reached out and pressed her head on his shoulder, then placed the computer in the middle: ”It's starting.”

After Ji Xiao finished, he turned to the side and the movie began. Ye Wanqing stiffened for a moment as he relaxed his body and leaned onto Ji Xiao's body.

It was raining heavily outside, the waves were surging, but the space was very quiet, as if it had returned to that rainy day when he was sixteen. The air of the movie theater seemed to be very sweet in his memory.

”Xia Ruoyun.”

”Hmm?”

”Thank you.”

”...” ”Thank me for what?”

Ji Xiao asked after a moment of silence. Ye Wanqing felt that the hand on his shoulder was a little stiff, as though he never expected her to say such a thing.

The first laughing point in the movie came as Ye Wanqing followed suit with a smirk on her face, ”When I was sixteen, thank you for bringing me to see a movie. That was the first time I went to a movie and it was also the best movie I've ever seen.”

At that time, you were also very good, so good that it made my heart palpitate …
