Chapter 43: The Dialogue at the Cinema
“Ran Ran, this one will do.” Jiang Yun stopped at the entrance of a movie theater.
When Jiang Yun got out of the car, he immediately ran to Bai Ran’s car and opened the door for her enthusiastically.
Chen Chen watched Jiang Yun’s movements and did not say a word. He also got out of the car, but his expression was so cold that it seemed like it could freeze everything around him.
“Ran Ran, the weather is cold tonight. Put this on.” Jiang Yun took off his jacket and gently covered Bai Ran’s shoulders. He wanted to protect her, but he was afraid that she would reject him.
“Uh…” Bai Ran frowned slightly. She did feel that this was going overboard.
However, when she thought that there was someone watching her from behind, she could not help but tighten her grip on the jacket.
“Come in for a while. I’ll go buy a ticket,” Jiang Yun said as he jogged to the cashier.
As for Chen Chen, he was treated as invisible throughout.
Chen Chen touched his nose speechlessly. Since he did not have a share anymore, he bought the ticket himself.
After entering the theater, Chen Chen sat in his seat. When he saw Jiang Yun and Bai Ran sitting together in the front row, his expression darkened.
A few minutes ago, Chen Chen had wanted to buy the seat beside them, but he was told that it was full. Helpless, he could only choose the nearest backseat.
Was he supposed to watch them get intimate?
Bai Ran felt like she was sitting on pins and needles. She had no choice. The King of Hell was watching her from behind!
Jiang Yun, on the other hand, looked relaxed as he held popcorn and drinks for Bai Ran.
Bai Ran took it gently and whispered, “Thank you.”
However, the next second, Jiang Yun reached out and took out a popcorn, feeding it to Bai Ran.
When they saw this scene, Bai Ran and Chen Chen frowned.
Although he was acting in front of Chen Chen, some of his actions were a little too intimate.
Bai Ran had just tilted her head to the side, wanting to reject him when Chen Chen kicked Jiang Yun’s seat first.
“Mr. Jiang, this is a public place. Please don’t affect everyone,” Chen Chen said softly, but his tone was firm.
Jiang Yun did not care about Chen Chen’s warning, but when he saw Bai Ran tilt her head, he could only shrug and put down his hand.
Was she really unwilling to accept his closeness at all?
The two-hour movie felt like 200 hours to Bai Ran. No matter how much she waited, the movie never ended.
Unable to stand the strange atmosphere between the three of them, Bai Ran made an excuse to go to the toilet and walked out with a bow, wanting to take a breather.
“Why are you hiding here? Do you feel uncomfortable being with your lover?”
Bai Ran turned to look. Unknowingly, Chen Chen had also followed and stood behind her.
“It’s uncomfortable with you around,” Bai Ran replied bluntly.
“You’re getting ruder and ruder to me now.” Chen Chen pouted, not knowing what to feel. “Are you dying to break off ties with me immediately?!”
“Didn’t you know?” Bai Ran rolled her eyes at Chen Chen. “Didn’t you have all kinds of situations that caused you to be unable to escape?”
“What’s so good about Jiang Yun? Why are you so eager to get rid of me?!” Chen Chen took a step forward, his expression extremely ugly. As long as he saw that Jiang Yun was close to her, his heart felt like it was crawling with millions of ants! He could not stand it at all!
“Can’t you see what’s so good about Jiang Yun? He knows that he has to put on a jacket for me when it’s cold. He knows that if I’m thirsty, he should pass me a drink. He will consider it for me. What about you? Have you thought about it at all?” Bai Ran did not retreat. She looked directly into Chen Chen’s eyes, but she felt a little guilty.
“I…” Chen Chen was speechless.
“You’re just someone who would throw down the divorce agreement for your lover.” Bai Ran smiled mockingly. “Since you’ve even done such a decisive thing, why are you still dragging things out here? Since the one you love is Hu Wan, why are you here caring who I’m with?”
“Aren’t these all the developments you wanted from the beginning?” Bai Ran continued.
“…” Chen Chen widened his eyes and staggered a little.
He was flustered by Bai Ran’s words. He did not know what to say or what to do.
When he faced Hu Wan, all he could think about was taking care of her.
Facing Bai Ran, all he could think of was for her to give in.
“I’m sorry…” Chen Chen lowered his eyes and suddenly said slowly.
Sorry?
Bai Ran looked up instantly. This seemed to be the second time she had heard him apologize.
The last time, it was for his rough invasion, but this time, it was for taking her for granted in the past.
Bai Ran looked into Chen Chen’s eyes as if she wanted to know how sincere those words were.
“There’s no need to apologize.” Bai Ran thought for a few seconds and sighed. “If you had any feelings for me, you wouldn’t have chosen to abandon me. Since you’ve given up on me, don’t torture me here.”
What they did not know was that not far away, Jiang Yun was standing in a corner. Their conversation had fallen into his ears.
