Mu Anxiao frowned, about to throw her schoolbag back at Feng Qishi, when Feng Qishi sat down and whispered, "I advise you to hold on tight, lest you be recognized." He glanced ahead.
Following Feng Qishi's gaze, Mu Anxiao stood up and looked. In front of them sat Yan Ruoruo and that young man.
"See my good intentions now?" Feng Qishi leaned his head towards Mu Anxiao and whispered.
Mu Anxiao leaned back against the seat, glancing at Feng Qishi. "If I'm going to thank anyone, it won't be you."
"Stubborn," Feng Qishi said, starting to eat popcorn.
Listening to the soft chewing sounds beside her, Mu Anxiao swallowed and asked, "Is it good?"
"Delicious," Feng Qishi replied, staring at the large screen displaying advertisements.
Mu Anxiao pretended to nod and remained silent.
"Want some?" Feng Qishi asked quietly.
Mu Anxiao glanced at Feng Qishi again, pursing her lips without speaking.
"Eat if you want," Zhang Yan said, sitting in the empty seat next to Mu Anxiao.
Mu Anxiao lowered her head.
Feng Qishi smiled faintly. "I've never seen you so considerate before..."
"You've seen me before?" Mu Anxiao suddenly turned to Feng Qishi and asked softly.
"My brother told me," Feng Qishi said, pointing at Zhang Yan.
Zhang Yan laughed. "I told him."
Mu Anxiao rolled her eyes at Zhang Yan and looked back at Feng Qishi. "Can you stop trying to get close to me? We're not familiar with each other."
Feng Qishi didn't answer Mu Anxiao. He directly handed her the popcorn bucket. "Eat if you want, don't be polite."
"I don't want any," Mu Anxiao said, turning her face away.
"Alright, if you don't want any, you don't want any," Feng Qishi said with a smile, and continued eating by himself.
Half an hour later, Mu Anxiao stared blankly at the large screen, eating popcorn bite by bite. Feng Qishi, who had fallen asleep, rested his head on her shoulder. Her brows furrowed. She paused her hand reaching for popcorn, turned her head to look closely at Feng Qishi's sleeping face, cleared her throat, and put the popcorn back. As her hand reached out to touch Feng Qishi's hair, she suddenly remembered Shen Yan'sæŽç (germophobia).
If he looked exactly the same as in her previous life, his personality must be similar too. Thinking this, Mu Anxiao blinked and retracted her hand. "Forget it, I'd better not challenge it." xxs1
"Why didn't you push him away?" Zhang Yan leaned over, looking at Feng Qishi's head resting on Mu Anxiao's shoulder, and asked.
"He gave me popcorn. If I did that, it would be ungrateful," Mu Anxiao said, continuing to eat popcorn.
"Alright," Zhang Yan nodded, leaning back against the seat and closing his eyes.
Mu Anxiao glanced at Zhang Yan and yawned. "So boring."
However, Yan Ruoruo and the young man didn't think so. They were deeply engrossed in the romantic plot of the movie. The young man glanced at Yan Ruoruo and slowly reached out to take her hand.
"Huh?" Mu Anxiao clearly saw Yan Ruoruo's hand being taken by the young man in front of her, and she was startled. Then she deliberately kicked the back of the young man's seat and quickly tilted her head back, pretending to sleep.
The young man instantly stopped holding her hand, disturbed. He turned to look at Mu Anxiao and Feng Qishi, who were asleep behind them, and said, "It's clear this won't last. You don't understand romance at all."
Yan Ruoruo didn't look back. "Exactly. Who would be as romantic as you?" As she spoke, her face slowly moved closer to the young man.
Mu Anxiao watched Yan Ruoruo's actions with one eye open and one eye closed. Her gaze flickered, and she deliberately kicked the back of Yan Ruoruo's seat again.
The next second, Yan Ruoruo stopped her impulse to kiss the young man, sat up, and stared directly at the big screen.
The young man swallowed. "If only our love could be as dramatic as in the movies."
"I don't want that. I want it to be peaceful. I can't handle too much drama," Yan Ruoruo said, and her heart suddenly ached.
At the same time, Zhang Yan opened his eyes. "Not good."
Mu Anxiao looked ahead and asked again, while eating popcorn, "What's wrong?"
"The evil spirit can't get out. It's struggling inside Yan Ruoruo right now," Zhang Yan said, standing up and looking at Yan Ruoruo in front of them, who was slowly sliding down her seat, her face contorted in pain.
"Why does the evil spirit want to come out?" Mu Anxiao tilted her head up and asked softly.
"Because it's disappointed in Yan Ruoruo and wants to find a new home," Zhang Yan said, glancing at the young man who had stood up.
"What does he want to do?" Mu Anxiao looked at the young man in surprise.
The young man looked down in terror at Yan Ruoruo, whose face was twisted in pain. "You, why didn't you tell me you have a heart condition? That's enough." As he spoke, he took out his phone and rapidly deleted Yan Ruoruo, then bent down, picked up Yan Ruoruo's phone, and deleted everything related to him from Yan Ruoruo's phone.
"What is he doing?" Mu Anxiao asked, looking at the young man in front of them with confusion.
"Deleting all evidence of Yan Ruoruo being with him."
"I'm not playing with you anymore," the young man said. He bent down, placed the phone by Yan Ruoruo's hand, and ran away.
Mu Anxiao watched the young man's retreating figure in surprise, forgetting about Feng Qishi, and stood up. "He's gone, what about her?"
As Mu Anxiao was wondering, the evil spirit's voice came from inside Yan Ruoruo's body. "Oh my, don't go, don't go."
Mu Anxiao frowned and said, "It seems I can only take her out first."
At the same time, Feng Qishi's head fell away and he woke up.
"What's wrong?" he asked lazily.
Mu Anxiao didn't bother to explain much to Feng Qishi. She quickly threw his schoolbag to him, ate the last bit of popcorn from the bucket, and handed the empty bucket to Feng Qishi.
Feng Qishi took the empty bucket, looking bewildered. "Wait, it's not over yet."
Mu Anxiao said nothing. She looked to the sides, then directly held onto the empty seat in front of her, easily flipped over it, and stood steadily beside Yan Ruoruo. She crouched down and said, "Behave yourself."
Upon hearing Mu Anxiao's voice, the evil spirit immediately stopped struggling.
Yan Ruoruo took a few breaths, opened her eyes, and looked at Mu Anxiao. "Why are you here?"
"Come out with me," Mu Anxiao said, grabbing Yan Ruoruo's arm.
Feng Qishi leaned down, looking at Mu Anxiao and Yan Ruoruo. "Mu Anxiao, how come I never noticed you were so manly before?"
Hearing this, Mu Anxiao looked up at Feng Qishi, who was mocking her with a smile. Just as she was about to speak, a protest came from the front. "If you're not watching, go out. What are you making noise for?"
"Let's go," Feng Qishi said, spreading his hands. He stood up, slung his schoolbag over his shoulder, turned to put the two empty cola cups in the bucket, and turned to walk out of the screening room.
Zhang Yan asked, "You're leaving the trash here. Someone will collect it."
