Mo Liuxi suddenly felt that he shouldnât have turned to him. He might as well keep talking to Zhang Hongchuan. âI really donât like that one. Before, I didnât like this one either, but recently, I somehow started to like her.â
Chu Jiu was a little confused. âShould I congratulate you then? You finally like a girl.â
âBut she is three years older than me,â Mo Liuxi said with a frown. âSheâs like a little girl though.â
Chu Jiu wanted to laugh. âYou think sheâs like a little girl because you like her. Anyway, this isnât easy. Since you like her, be nice to her.â
âEmm. Iâll try to marry her as soon as possible.â Mo Liuxi nodded.
Chu Jiu nearly choked on his saliva. âYou just started to recently like her, and youâre already thinking about marrying her? Isnât that too fast? Besides, does she even like you?â
âSheâll like me sooner or later,â Mo Liuxi responded with a bland tone. âI like her, and Iâm serious about it.ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Chu Jiu didnât know what to say.
Alright. I am impressed, he thought.
...
After figuring out what was on his mind, Mo Liuxi felt rather strange about the result. He wanted to marry Yan Su, so that she would always make congee for him.
At nightfall, he passed by a milk tea shop. He hesitated briefly, went in, and bought two cups of milk tea. One for himself, and one to go.
Back home, he knocked on Yan Suâs door, but no one answered.
He sent her a WeChat message ââArenât you at home?â
She didnât reply. With disappointment, he recalled that she didnât answer his call earlier.
An hour later, Yan Su replied to his message ââIâm watching a movie.â
Mo Liuxi immediately opened the movie app on his phone. There wasnât any good movies showing. Who was she watching the movie with? Sheâs wasnât with Lu Kang, was she?
He immediately asked her ââWhat is the movie?â
Yan Su replied ââReady Player One.â
Mo Liuxi smiled. What a trashy movie.
Yet, he replied to her ââThatâs a nice one. Why didnât you invite me?â
Yan Su ââDo you like it? I didnât know. I think itâs just average.â
Mo Liuxi ââWho are you with? How much is the ticket? Is it expensive? Is there any discount?â
Yan Su ââEh... You are a director. Can a movie ticket possibly be expensive for you?â
Mo Liuxi ââSure. I have to give every penny I have to my future wife.â
Yan Su didnât know what to say. She told herself she must pay him for the barbecue.
Sitting beside her, Lu Kang noticed that she was sending WeChat messages the whole time. He couldnât help but ask her, âIs the movie bad?â
âItâs not like that.â Yan Su felt a little awkward. âHow much is the ticket? My friend wants to know.â
Lu Kang paused briefly, then responded with a smile, âEighty yuan.â
âThank you.â Yan Su sighed with relief, then messaged Mo Liuxi ââEighty yuan.â
âExpensive,â Mo Liuxi replied.
Yan Su ââI think itâs okay. Not really expensive. Thatâs what a movie ticket usually costs.â
âSince you found itâs not expensive, you can buy me a ticket next time. Thank you,â Mo Liuxi replied.
Yan Su felt speechless. What kind of person are you? she thought.
Clenching her teeth, she replied to him ââIâm sorry. Itâs expensive for me too. Bye.â
Reading her message, Mo Liuxi frowned.
What a silly girl. He had obviously shown his intentions, yet she failed to get it.
Would he ever care about eighty yuan? Was he that kind of a man?
He finally stopped messaging her. Yan Su put her phone back into her purse. Thankfully, she ran away after sleeping with him. Otherwise, that stingy man might ask her to pay for the sex.
