He truly did not understand why Han Jincheng was so enthusiastic about movies. This was already the third time she had invited him to watch a film this month. The first time was at the beginning of the month, when they watched a science fiction movie, and throughout the entire film, Mu Yunze had been dozing off. The second time was in the middle of the month, for a comedy, where he barely managed to stay awake but found none of the jokes funny.
To be honest, he had little interest in movies, especially those so-called blockbuster hits. He preferred to spend his time alone in the dormitory, quietly reading or playing games, enjoying his moments of solitude.
He hesitated about whether to reply, his finger hovering over the screen for a moment before he finally typed: Jincheng, I—
Before he could finish typing his refusal, Han Jincheng's next message came through immediately: No refusals allowed! I’m still mad about the last time you promised to accompany me to the library and then sneaked off to play games! Hmph, this time we must watch a movie! *fist emoji* She even attached an angry panda sticker.
Looking at the fierce sticker on the screen, Mu Yunze knew that if he refused again, he would really upset her. Although Han Jincheng was usually gentle and adorable, she could be quite terrifying when she got angry. He had no choice but to compromise and replied: Fine, fine, I’ll go. What time? Which cinema?
Seven o'clock tonight at our usual place—don’t be late! Yay! Han Jincheng replied quickly as if afraid he would change his mind.
The "usual place" referred to a cinema in the city center, which was convenient and had a pleasant environment. Mu Yunze glanced at the time; it was currently five o'clock in the afternoon, leaving him two hours until their meeting. He decided to take a shower in the dormitory and change his clothes first.
Time flew by quickly, and soon it was seven o'clock in the evening. Mu Yunze arrived punctually at the cinema entrance and immediately spotted Han Jincheng standing there.
She wore a white dress today that made her look even more pure and charming. Her long black hair cascaded over her shoulders, enhancing her gentle demeanor.
"Mu Yunze, you’re here!" Upon seeing him, Han Jincheng's face lit up with a radiant smile like a blooming flower. She hurried over and affectionately linked her arm through his.
Mu Yunze felt a bit awkward; after all, they were in a public place with people coming and going. He wasn’t used to such intimate gestures in front of others. He slightly turned his body, trying to discreetly pull his arm away, but Han Jincheng only tightened her grip.
"Um, I’m here," Mu Yunze replied softly.
"Come on, the movie is about to start!" Han Jincheng tugged him toward the theater.
As the movie began, a couple appeared on screen in a romantic scene. It was then that Mu Yunze realized they were watching a romance film today. In previous outings, Han Jincheng had dragged him to see action-packed blockbusters or alien invasion flicks; even horror films with gruesome scenes had been on their list. This sudden shift in genre caught him off guard.
He stole a glance at Han Jincheng beside him and found her intently focused on the screen with a hint of sweet smile on her face. In the dim light, her fair skin seemed to glow; her long eyelashes fluttered slightly like a butterfly resting on a petal. Mu Yunze's heart inexplicably raced.
The plot of the movie was painfully cliché—a domineering CEO falling for an innocent girl—with various coincidences, misunderstandings, and melodramatic twists unfolding one after another. Mu Yunze felt himself growing drowsy; if it weren't for Han Jincheng occasionally gasping in surprise or delight, he probably would have fallen asleep long ago.
