After dinner, Xia Shangzhou asked, "Going home?"
"Un …" Lin Jiayi pondered for a moment before asking, "Do you have anything on tonight?"
Xia Shangzhou shook his head. "No, what's wrong?"
"If you're free, why don't we go to a nearby mall to watch a movie?"
Watching a movie … That's something only couples do …
Xia Shangzhou's fingers trembled nervously for a moment before he nodded. "Alright …"
After which, he calmed his fluctuating emotions and asked, "What movie do you want to watch?"
"Let's watch the movie that's being promoted all over the world recently …"
"Alright," Xia Shangzhou replied before taking out his phone to book the tickets.
"The seats for the 8 pm show aren't too good, but the 9: 20 pm show has a good seat, so I'll book it for the 9: 20 pm show. Do you think it's fine?"
"Sure …"
Xia Shangzhou tapped on the screen for a moment before raising his head and replying to Lin Jiayi, "I've booked the tickets, but it's only 7: 30 pm right now. Do you want to head over now or wait a little longer …"
"Let's head over now. We can still take a look around the mall."
Xia Shangzhou had no objections to that.
The mall was right behind the Beijing World Hotel, and it would only take three to five minutes to get there on foot.
Lin Jiayi and Xia Shangzhou arrived at the first floor of the mall before 7: 40 pm.
Lin Jiayi didn't buy anything. She just picked up a few of the brands that she liked and walked around casually. When it was about time, she and Xia Shangzhou headed to the basement.
Before entering the theater, Lin Jiayi didn't forget to buy two cups of cola and a large bucket of popcorn.
Due to the movie's new release, the seats were still full.
Lin Jiayi was halfway through her cola when the movie started.
The plot was simply too ordinary, but the setting was indeed beautiful, and the actors were beautiful as well. But in the past few years, be it television series or movies, it had always been these few actors who acted in them.
Lin Jiayi focused her attention on the movie for twenty minutes before she couldn't take it anymore. She lowered her head to look at her phone.
However, due to the bright light coming from her phone, Lin Jiayi didn't dare to look at it for too long. In the end, she couldn't bear to watch the movie anymore, and her phone didn't work either. After finishing her cola and popcorn, she fell asleep out of boredom.
By the time she woke up, the movie had already ended.
She moved her head slightly, and only then did she realize that she was leaning on Xia Shangzhou's shoulder at some point.
As for the Navigator next to him, he maintained a posture in his seat, not daring to move at all.
Lin Jiayi quickly sat up straight and combed her hair. She was the one who suggested watching a movie, but in the end, she ended up leaning on his shoulder and snoring away. Feeling a little embarrassed, she said, "That … Movies are really too boring."
"Un, it's indeed rather boring." Seeing that Lin Jiayi had stood up, Xia Shangzhou also stood up as well.
While Lin Jiayi was tidying up her clothes, she noticed that Xia Shangzhou's arm had trembled a little when he reached for the Coke bottle.
Did his arm … go numb from all the leaning?
Lin Jiayi pursed her lips, but before Xia Shangzhou could reach for the Coke bottle once more, she had already snatched it away from him and pretended as if she hadn't noticed anything at all as she said, "Let's go."
Then, he took the lead and walked towards the exit of the cinema.
It was already getting late, so there weren't many people or cars on the streets.
It was fortunate that Xia Shangzhou had booked a car in advance, and it was parked right across the street. While Lin Jiayi and Xia Shangzhou were crossing the street, a car with its blinding headlights suddenly sped toward them.
"Be careful!"
Xia Shangzhou was the first to notice it, and he subconsciously called out to warn Lin Jiayi.
Lin Jiayi shot a surprised glance at Xia Shangzhou. She hadn't even noticed the car when Xia Shangzhou had suddenly pulled her to the side.
Before she could even steady herself, the car had already sped past her, bringing with it a gust of wind. Still in a state of shock, she raised her head to take a look and memorized the license plate number.
