When they came out of the cinema, it was nearly half past eight in the evening.
Neither of them had eaten dinner. Having already gotten in the car, the moment he drove his car out of the underground parking lot of the cinema, Gu Yusheng asked Qin Zhiâai, âWhat would you like to eat?â
Qin Zhiâai seemed to think for a second, answering, âAnything is okay.â
As Gu Yusheng drove forward, he filtered the restaurants that he had been to in his brain. Not knowing the reason, he finally thought of Chenâs.
When he still hadnât realized that he loved her yet, he had met her by accident at the door to A Middle School, then unconsciously, he had asked her to eat together at Chenâs.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
However, on the way, he had met the gangsters and Qin Yang and he had been in a bad mood, so he had made a temporary change and failed to keep their plans.
Can I now make up for what I didnât do well at that time? Can this just be treated as a starting point for our future?
â¦
Gu Yusheng didnât speak for a long time. Qin Zhiâai thought that he was wondering about where to eat. Looking at the night scene that was constantly moving backwards outside the car window, she suddenly thought of Chenâs subconsciously.
In the previous eight years, that had been the first time he had invited her out to eat.
Unfortunately, they had encountered the gangsters and Qin Yang. They had nearly arrived at Chenâs, but he had left her there alone and left directly.
Can I now have one more extravagant hopeâafter we finish watching the movie, let me complete the thing that I have longed for but not finished yet. Let it be a good ending to our upcoming separation.
Thinking about that, Qin Zhiâai looked away from the window to Gu Yushengâs body. She just wanted to call his name. However, Gu Yusheng, who was looking directly ahead, suddenly turned his head. Without any warning, he said, âHow about Chenâs?â
He was thinking of the same place as me⦠Qin Zhiâai felt excited in her heart, and the little excitement in her chest made her voice tremble. âOkay.â
â¦
After dinner, it was already eleven oâclock in the evening.
In the pedestrian street in front of Chenâs, where ordinarily people came and went in droves, at that time, there were only small groups of people left, and they walked quickly by.
Though she had expected that it would be rare to watch a movie and eat dinner together comfortably, Gu Yushengâs mood was exceptionally good. Even though there were already some shops on the pedestrian street that were closed, Gu Yusheng stood at the gate of Chenâs and looked around, asking Qin Zhiâai, âWould you like to go for a walk?â
When she had been at school, the three things that were popular among couples in the school were watching movies, eating, and going for walks on the playground.
At that time, whenever she heard from Xu Wennuan what movie she had gone to see with Wu Hao, where they had gone to eat together, and in which square they had walked hand in hand, Qin Zhiâai had always laid on her desk and imagined when she could watch movies, eat dinner, and then take a walk with Gu Yusheng.
Tonight, she had just been looking forward to seeing a movie. She had never expected to have a meal, and now she could even take a walk with himâ¦
Qin Zhiâai was really very happy, but behind her happiness, there was an inexplicable sadness. As a result, when she nodded to Gu Yusheng with a smile and was ready to speak to him, her eyes suddenly became red. She hurriedly turned her head and, red-eyed and with a smile on her face, said, âOkay.â
