Chapter 76: Only Lied Half a Word

After sitting down, the two hands that were just clasped together simultaneously let go, as if by mutual understanding.

Liang Zhirou took the opportunity when Chen Lu turned his head and quickly rubbed her burning cheeks.

How dare you hold it back! I’m so embarrassed!

This is great, not at all innocent anymore.

Chen Lu is so good to you, how… how can you take advantage of him?

She berated herself in her heart.

After regaining her senses, she still felt the feeling of Chen Lu holding her right hand hadn’t faded, causing her to unconsciously clench the air a couple of times.

Although she had been extremely nervous just now, she also liked it very much. After letting go, a feeling of emptiness lingered in her heart, making her feel like a part of her body was missing.

When she reminisces about this in the future, she might even laugh in her sleep.

Maybe it’s more like a dream now. She’s never been this happy in her dreams before.

She thought to herself, mustering up her courage to steal a glance at Chen Lu. She saw him giving her a gentle smile.

Liang Zhirou, like a startled fawn, quickly lowered her head.

But soon, the novelty of coming to the cinema for the first time defeated her shyness. Liang Zhirou looked around, like a child.

Chen Lu just quietly smiled and watched her, finding her more and more adorable.

The cinema was very dim, but she could tell that this screening was very popular. The seats around them were full, mostly couples, and the sounds of their teasing and laughter were constant.

Liang Zhirou didn’t know how Chen Lu managed to get tickets in the middle.

He couldn’t have bought them days in advance, could he?

Just as she was thinking this, she suddenly realized something shocking.

She noticed that everywhere her eyes went, there was a man and a woman sitting next to each other, without exception.

The naive Liang Zhirou felt they weren’t really here to watch the movie, because no one was looking at the big screen.

Suddenly, she saw a couple kissing, she was startled and quickly retracted her gaze, sitting up straight.

Liang Zhirou’s observation session ended there.

“It seems a bit rude…”

She said with a red face, her two hands twisting together, feeling like she was very uncultured.

Chen Lu rolled his eyes at her, “Who cares about you, these couples watching movies don’t even care about the cameras, how could they be afraid of you seeing them kiss?”

The girl didn’t quite understand, and couldn’t help but ask, “What do you mean?”

“Nothing, I don’t know anything.” Chen Lu cleared his throat, “Just sit still, it should start soon.”

“Okay.” Liang Zhirou nodded obediently.

“You’re so good, I’ll reward you with some popcorn.”

Chen Lu said as he handed the popcorn to Liang Zhirou’s mouth. He didn’t know if this silly girl had completely adapted and given up resisting, or if it was because of the darkness in the cinema, but she obediently opened her mouth and ate it.

Chen Lu raised the corner of his mouth with satisfaction. His efforts were paying off.

Speaking of which, he never bought popcorn when he watched movies. He only bought it today because he was accompanying Liang Zhirou.

What’s more fun than watching a movie is feeding this silly girl?

Not even half as fun, right?

He proudly picked up a piece of popcorn and was about to put it in his mouth, but his wrist was grabbed by Liang Zhirou.

“What’s wrong?” Chen Lu looked at her with confusion.

“There’s… there might be saliva on it.” The girl focused her gaze elsewhere, not daring to look at him, “It was too dark just now.”

She felt like her lips might have touched Chen Lu’s fingers just now.

“But I don’t know which finger I used to feed you.”

Chen Lu said calmly. He felt like he had never reacted so quickly in his life.

The girl blinked, “Isn’t it just these two fingers?”

“Are you sure?” Chen Lu continued to ask.

Liang Zhirou was thrown off by him and became uncertain, even her body softened a little, “I’m not sure.”

Chen Lu shrugged, “Then how do I eat it? It’s not convenient to use my left hand, and the movie is about to start. I can’t just run out to wash my hands, can I?”

Then he took a sip of his milk tea, using this opportunity to think about how he could set the stage further.

He said again:

“Forget it, forget it, it’s okay. It’s not like I’m going to be craving it late at night and cry about it.”

The girl slightly pursed her lips, pondered for a long time, then leaned close to Chen Lu’s ear, whispering, “I, I’ll feed you.”

Her voice was very soft and small, as if she was afraid of being heard by others.

This delicate and soft voice made Chen Lu tremble all over. Even a succubus probably wouldn’t have a voice like this.

“Okay!”

He immediately agreed.

Liang Zhirou picked a piece of popcorn that looked particularly plump and carefully handed it to Chen Lu’s mouth.

She was incredibly nervous.

“We’re good friends, we’re innocent.”

She kept repeating this in her heart.

Unfortunately, she could only repeat it twice before she couldn’t continue.

“This is not innocent at all…”

Chen Lu, on the other hand, was not at all hesitant. He opened his mouth and ate it, looking like he was enjoying it immensely.

Liang Zhirou realized that the popcorn in her hand was gone. She was stunned for a moment, then inexplicably felt a surge of joy.

She took another piece of popcorn from the paper cup and continued to feed him.

Feeding Chen Lu seemed to make her happier than eating it herself.

Two minutes later.

“Alright, alright, let me rest for a bit.” Chen Lu burped, “If I keep eating this fast, I’m really going to burst.”

He couldn’t eat anymore. This stuff gets really greasy after eating too much, making him not even want to drink his milk tea anymore.

That’s why he usually only buys iced Coke when he comes here.

“Oh, okay…”

Liang Zhirou was a little bit unsatisfied.

At this moment, the movie had just begun.

The girl sat up straight and focused her gaze on the big screen in front of her.

The movie’s sound was very loud.

At this moment, a slightly chubby boy came over to Chen Lu, bending over and sitting down next to him, using the flashlight on his phone.

“Brother, you’re a real tough guy, daring to come to the cinema alone.” Chen Lu couldn’t help but comment.

The boy was surprised to hear this, thinking he had found a fellow comrade.

“Brother, you’re also alone?”

Chen Lu shook his head and ate the popcorn that Liang Zhirou handed him, his speech slurred as he replied, “I’m not.”

“……Damn!”

The boy was so angry that he sat down in the only other empty seat far away, and even gave Chen Lu a friendly international gesture from afar.

“What did he say to you?” Liang Zhirou leaned close to Chen Lu, asking curiously in a low voice.

“He said he really envies me, that I have a good friend who is so beautiful, cute, and obedient.”

“You just know how to lie to me.” Liang Zhirou was a little wronged.

Chen Lu was very helpless, “This time I really didn’t lie to you at all.”

He only lied half a word.

When he removes the “zi” in the future, it will be completely true.
