Chapter 1416 - 918: What Movie Are We Watching in the Theater? (Part 2)
"Is there a pregnancy scene?" Jiang Nian couldn’t sit still. His seat was empty anyway, so he leaned over to whisper.
"Or a car accident plot?"
Chen Yunyun: "..."
She hadn’t even spoken when she suddenly felt restrained. After a while, her world was spun wildly by a kiss.
The cinema had surveillance cameras, similar to during the daytime.
But...
What’s wrong with kissing?
There are too many mosquitoes in the park. The restaurant is untimely. Hotels feel too frivolous, while the dark atmosphere of a cinema is just right.
Kiss lips, touch legs.
So moist.
"Mmm..."
"We’re watching a movie here, show some manners." During the kiss, Jiang Nian pinched her face, "Don’t talk."
Chen Yunyun: "..."
She originally wanted to say someone was looking over. But after a while of kissing, she forgot everything in her head.
Her body also felt slightly, had some reaction.
If there were ranks in kissing, Jiang Nian was already at a master level, almost approaching grandmaster.
Of course, it’s not purely technique.
The core is the face.
When Chen Yunyun came back to her senses, the movie had reached the pregnancy scene. The hospital corridor was stretched long by the setting sun.
Huh?
Half of it was already over?
She felt like she was almost drowning, yet was very addicted. Repeatedly, emotions were stirred up.
The movie ended, and the two walked out of the screening room.
Chen Yunyun smiled with pursed lips, her hand unconsciously intertwined with Jiang Nian’s fingers, clinging as they left the cinema.
So this is how you watch movies.
Previously in TV dramas, when male and female leads watched movies, they would cautiously test and touch each other’s fingertips.
At that time, it was confusing and quite heart-stirring.
.....
"Heading back to the dorm?"
Jiang Nian started the car, suddenly feeling that the atmosphere inside the car was also alright. Unfortunately, it wasn’t his car, otherwise.....
Though he was shameless, he still had limits.
"Hm?"
Chen Yunyun, for a moment, didn’t know how to answer either, thought for a bit, and said, "I’m... I’m okay with anything."
"Oh?"
Jiang Nian was just teasing her, but drove back to Beijing Institute of Technology, mixing in with the crowd and inadvertently feeling sentimental.
"Got in just like that?"
"Yeah." Chen Yunyun looked at the familiar surroundings, feeling empty inside, but also secretly relieved.
"Right, when you were eating." Jiang Nian turned his head and suddenly asked, "Did you want to ask something?"
"Forgot."
"Really forgot?" Jiang Nian still held her hand, showing no intention of letting go, "Then I’ll ask Wang Yuhe."
Chen Yunyun: "..."
"Do you like Yuhe?"
"This..." Jiang Nian hesitated, but sooner or later he had to face it, "Of course, I do like her."
"However, it depends on what you think."
"Why?"
The reason, of course, is that Chen Yunyun would be unhappy. Wang Yuhe wouldn’t agree, simply liking someone is useless.
But, that’s the reasoning.
Jiang Nian said, "If you’re unhappy, why would I bother her and make it hard for you being stuck in the middle?"
"Just be friends, it’s not that hard."
Hearing this, Chen Yunyun was dazed for a while.
"Yeah."
She turned her head away, not knowing what to say for a moment, "Neither happy nor unhappy."
"Then let’s just put it aside and talk later."
"Okay?"
Jiang Nian asked himself. He was quite good at being patient and not overly hasty.
Moreover, life at the studio was quite enjoyable.
Being too hasty might invite trouble.
On Xu Qianqian’s side, it’s not completely handled either. Just temporarily looking ahead and thinking about the future.
But overall, it wasn’t a big problem.
As long as one doesn’t make a mess out of things, and develops steadily. If they stay out of each other’s way, they could at least hold out until after graduation.
Afterwards...
He snapped back to reality, and in a sincere tone, saw Chen Yunyun purse her lips, eventually nodded in agreement.
"Okay."
Jiang Nian accompanied her for a little more walking, then precisely escorted Chen Yunyun upstairs, watching her glance back every few steps.
The dormitory manager cast a glance outside, then withdrew her gaze.
He wasn’t in a rush to leave, played on his phone for a few minutes. If Chen Yunyun had anything to say, she could easily find him.
After a while, nothing happened.
Only then did Jiang Nian leave Beijing Institute of Technology, drove back to the empty studio, and switched on the light with a click.
He had just laid down when his phone rang.
Wang Yuhe: "(Staring)!!"
Jiang Nian: "???"
"Where did you go today?" Wang Yuhe sent an emoticon, "Yunyun wasn’t around either, you guys didn’t..."
"Why are you asking so many questions?" Jiang Nian was indifferent.
Wang Yuhe: "(Rolling on the floor)!"
"Why didn’t you invite me?"
"Why would I invite you for adult matters?" Jiang Nian replied, "You’re such a third wheel."
"You’re the third wheel!!"
Wang Yuhe was so angry, she sent over a dozen emoticons in a row, "(Dumbfounded) Then what should I do in the future?"
Jiang Nian: "How about next time I invite you?"
Wang Yuhe: "No way!"
...
Sunday.
Jiang Nian, having nothing to do, decided to stay in the dormitory. He invited Tao Ran, Liu Yang, and others online, playing a few rounds of games.
Suddenly, Li Hua joined in.
"Hm?"
"Where did this stray dog come from, kick him out!"
"Chi Shi!!"
"Virgin rank, roll out, you..." Jiang Nian mimicked a voice, joining in the commotion.
As expected, the topic’s direction shifted instantly.
"Exactly, damn it."
"Li Hua, I heard you got a partner. As expected, I noticed that back in senior year."
"Noticed what?"
"The ultimate repression king, the catheter prince."
"Shut up!!"
In an instant, Li Hua, with his clown aura, became the center of attention. Jiang Nian laughed.
"Animal sounds" echoed throughout, feeling quite refreshing.
Entered the game.
Jiang Nian caught Li Hua in a minor mistake, pressuring him, "Hua, why is your reaction so slow?"
Liu Yang immediately chimed in, in a sarcastic tone.
"Must be weak kidneys."
"Or maybe he just finished up." Tao Ran said, "Last time we were on break, I was alone in the dorm with no internet."
"Coincidentally, my phone was out of service, and then I....."
"Alright, alright!!" Lin Dong interrupted Tao Ran’s dorm story, clearly avoiding a horror tale.
"Team fight, team fight."
"Damn."
"How did Li Hua die again, what the hell are you playing with?"
"Chi Shi, my hand slipped."
After the team fight, Jiang Nian led the fray. He noticed that his group of friends had slowed down in their reactions.
Then why hadn’t he deteriorated?
Hmm.....
Perhaps his reaction time hadn’t degraded because he persevered with exercise. Frequently engaged in physical activities when idle.
But why had his hand speed even improved?
After logging off.
Jiang Nian opened Old Liu’s Moments, clicked on it and it was all Zhen Nan’s news. Director Liu was really eager for progress.
Among the shared articles, he stumbled upon Qingbao.
"Advanced Teacher."
Scrolling further down, there were familiar faces like Qi Xue, even an article about Lan Lan.
This idle lady still hasn’t been fired?
He browsed through each one, "Yeah, what the hell, a new teaching building was built just after I graduated?"
The experimental building where he and Li Qingrong had rendezvoused was bulldozed, and now a new building had risen.
Jiang Nian mumbled a few words, then opened Qingbao’s Moments, discovering only three days’ worth of content shown.
The background was West Lake, a photo of her and Qi Xue. Their faces were covered by cartoon patterns, their figures slim.
He thought for a moment and edited a message.
"Teacher, busy lately?"
Meanwhile, Qingbao was gaming at home. Zhen Nan’s May temperatures soared, wearing a short-sleeve was enough.
She wore a loose sleepwear, headphones on, typing on the keyboard.
Suddenly, her hands lit up.
"Hm?"
She glanced over, noticed it was from Jiang Nian, and was momentarily stunned, picked up the phone and replied with a question mark.
"What’s up?"
"Nothing, just need a small favor." Jiang Nian explained, "There’s a place on Metallurgical Avenue that sells fish snack."
"Could you help buy a bag and send it over?"
Qingbao was baffled, then replied.
"Sure."
She didn’t ask why Jiang Nian didn’t turn to his parents. Asked specifically which place, and then sent an OK.
Jiang Nian: "Thank you, teacher."
Finished chatting.
Qingbao continued playing, unfocused after a round. Her mouse hovered over the start button, hesitant to click.
