They entered the theater, found a seat, and waited for the movie to start.
There were no empty seats in the screening hall. For a movie from 20 years ago, such attendance could be considered a miracle.
Li Xu stuffed popcorn into his mouth and said, "This Zhang Guorong seems to be very famous."
"Don't you know him?"
"I was only five when he died. How could I know him that well? Of course, I don't like him." Li Xu said matter-of-factly.
"If you don't know him, then why do you look like you like him and want to watch this movie?" Lin Yuqing was speechless.
Li Xu smiled and didn't say anything.
When the movie started, only the light from the screen came out. This movie didn't have many colors. Most of them were in black and white, so the theater was very dark.
Lin Yuqing watched the movie attentively. Li Xu glanced at Lin Yuqing from time to time, as if he was distracted in class.
"Watch the movie carefully."
Feeling Li Xu's gaze, Lin Yuqing didn't turn around and said softly.
"Oh."
Li Xu quickly turned his head and stared at the big screen.
Fairy tale love stories were always accompanied by heart-wrenching plots. Sadness was always the easiest to move people. The two girls in front of Li Xu kept sobbing in the middle of the movie.
Lin Yuqing didn't have any reaction. She just watched quietly.
The movie ended and the lights came on.
Li Xu didn't feel anything. What impressed him the most was the line at the end that touched his heart: Where have you been? I've been waiting for you for a long time.
Other than that, the only thing he felt was that it was finally over. He needed to pee.
He drank most of the coke. It would be strange if he didn't need to pee.
"I'm going to the bathroom." Li Xu said and ran away in a hurry.
Lin Yuqing sat in her seat and looked at the remaining coke in her hand. She was in a daze.
The two left the theater. Li Xu pretended to roll up his sleeves and look at his watch. Then he said in surprise, "Ah! It's still early, why don't we find a place to sit first? "
The corners of Lin Yuqing's mouth slightly raised. Li Xu didn't wear a watch at all. This exaggerated acting made people want to laugh.
As they passed by the small square, a conversation attracted their attention.
A very cute girl was holding her mobile phone, seemingly recording something. She spoke half-baked Chinese and asked a passerby for directions.
"Do you know how to get to Building 63?"
Of the entire sentence, only Building 63 was spoken in Korean to ensure that passers-by could understand the meaning. The other words were a few Chinese words that ordinary people could not understand.
Seeing that it was a beautiful girl from China and that she might be a live streamer, the young man enthusiastically gestured and gestured, wishing that he could use both his hands and feet to guide the way.
Moreover, the passerby knew a few Chinese words. However, the words' hello 'and' hotpot 'were sandwiched between his Korean words. Even the Koreans couldn't understand what he was trying to say.
Li Xu and Lin Yuqing knew that the girl was not from China. Such poor Chinese words, the meaning was completely incomprehensible. With such a strong kimchi smell, it was obvious that she was not from China.
Looking at the mobile phone in the girl's hand, Li Xu guessed that this was probably a bored live streamer pranking the passerby on April Fool's Day.
F * ck! She actually did something that I wanted to do but never did.
Every time Li Xu embarrassed himself outside, he wanted to pretend to be Japanese. However, because of his poor Japanese, he could only think about it every time.
This girl was actually pretending to be a foreigner, but her purpose was to prank others. Li Xu thought that this was not good, so he decided to help her get on the right path.
However, the passerby obviously didn't understand that he was being played. Seeing that the girl didn't understand his meaning, he kept pointing his finger at the subway line.
Li Xu winked at Lin Yuqing. "Watch me."
Lin Yuqing was too late to stop Li Xu, and Li Xu walked in front of the passerby. "Do you need help?"
Li Xu asked in Korean and then in Chinese.
The passerby was very excited. "This girl from China is asking for directions. 63 Building."
"63 Building." Li Xu glanced at the girl and started to talk nonsense in Chinese.
"This 63 Building … … Walking like this, from the south, there is a mute with a loudspeaker on his waist. From the north, there is a mute with a loudspeaker."
"Pfft!" Lin Yuqing couldn't help but laugh when she saw Li Xu recite the tongue twister with a straight face.
Li Xu made a funny face at Lin Yuqing. Don't laugh. We are professionals.
The passerby and the girl were dumbfounded. They listened in a daze. Was this Chinese language so rhythmic?
Li Xu continued to recite a tongue twister and asked in Korean and Chinese. "Do you know the way?"
"Oh! I know. " The girl stuttered in Korean and then thanked the passerby. It was as if she was really a tourist from China who only knows a few simple sentences in Korean.
"What do you know?" Li Xu pretended to be stunned and said in Korean. "I have not said anything."
Immediately, the girl realized that she had been played. She looked at Li Xu with grief and indignation, then ran away with her face covered.
Only then did the passerby react. He thanked Li Xu awkwardly and left.
Lin Yuqing looked at Li Xu's proud face and said. "Do you want to embarrass them?"
Li Xu chuckled. "I'm serious about cracking down on fake news."
But Li Xu did not know that this girl was a popular streamer on Afreeca. Many Korean netizens had seen Li Xu's April Fool's Day broadcast.
In fact, when Li Xu appeared, the viewers in the live broadcast room had reported him. But the streamer did not see it.
"Li Xu? Isn't that SKT's top laner? Come and see. "
"That's Li Xu! Su Xi, run! This guy is from China. You can't beat him. "
"Su Xi hasn't seen him yet. She's still pretending to be from China. Oh no, a tragedy is unfolding."
"Sob sob sob ~ Su Xi is too ashamed to face anyone. Forgive me for laughing."
"Haha! Li Xu is too funny. It's more interesting than his live broadcast. "
"Li Xu, I'll kill you. You embarrassed my goddess."

Li Xu brought Lin Yuqing to Kim Jin-hee's café. He wanted to introduce them, but Kim Jin-hee and Bao'er were not around.
After dinner, he sent Lin Yuqing to her apartment. Li Xu looked at Lin Yuqing hesitantly.
"Today is April Fool's Day, right?"
"Yes."
"Can all the lies I told today be forgiven?"
Li Xu's gaze wandered. He glanced at Lin Yuqing's face under the street lights, then looked away guiltily.
Lin Yuqing did not speak. She glanced at Li Xu and lowered her gaze, her long eyelashes trembling.
Li Xu gathered his courage and said, "Lin Yuqing, I like you."
As soon as the words left his mouth, Li Xu felt relieved. He stole a glance at Lin Yuqing. Li Xu quickly looked away.
Lin Yuqing did not speak. After a while, she opened her mouth faintly.
"I forgive you."
After that, Lin Yuqing turned around and went upstairs.
Li Xu, who was rooted to the spot, fell into deep thought.
'Is this a forgiven lie?'
'But these are my heartfelt words!'
'D * mn April Fool's Day. '
