At this moment, a broadcaster announced that they were starting to check tickets.
Xin Yanting recovered from her stupor and smiled. “Let’s go. They’re checking tickets now.”
She bowed her head. Without looking at his reaction, she walked towards the cinema.
Jesse gazed at her deeply and pressed his lips bitterly. He shook his head and gave himself an encouraging smile.
“Ting!”
He caught up with her in three steps. He slowed his pace when he reached her, his hands tucked into his pockets as he followed beside her in silence.
‘The Little Starfish’ just came to the theaters, so many people were watching it. Majority brought their kids along for the movie.
It was noisy.
There was a long queue at the ticket-checking counter. The neighboring lane was for exiting. A movie had just ended and a congregation of people was walking toward the exit, discussing the plot of the movie they just watched.
Laughter filled the air.
“Oh, I forgot to get popcorn.” Jesse smelled a waft of popcorn that a girl in front of them was carrying. “I’ll go buy some.”
He prepared to leave but Xin Yanting grabbed his arm and pulled him back. She frowned and asked, “We just ate. Are you still hungry?”
She had zero interest in food right now.
Curious, Jesse frowned. “Don’t you Chinese girls like eating popcorn during movies?”
He didn’t understand girls from China at all. He based everything from what he had seen and jumped to conclusions.
“No, I don’t like it.” Xin Yanting shook her head gently and let go of his arm. She continued walking toward the cinema.
“Uncle, can you bring me to watch it next time?”
Suddenly, a girl beside her spoke in English and Xin Yanting turned her head in curiosity.
A tall man was carrying a cute little girl in a white dress. He brushed past her and shock flashed across her eyes. Her heart clenched.
She turned to look at them and was apparently stunned.
The man took two steps before suddenly halting and turning around. His gaze met hers and shock was etched onto his handsome face.
Xin Yanting’s eyes glistened. The man’s eyes seemed to have a strong magnetic force that sucked her in.
She hated him. She found him annoying. She shouldn’t think about him or give him a second glance.
“Are you moving or not?”
The person queuing behind her saw that she was unmoving and impatiently rushed her.
Her thoughts were interrupted and she retracted her gaze. She bowed her head and was about to continue walking when Jesse suddenly put his arm around her shoulder in a protective stance. He protected her as she walked forward through the counter.
After getting their 3D spectacles, Jesse moved his arm to her waist. Just as they were about to turn the corner, he looked backward.
The tall, handsome, and charismatic man holding that little girl’s hand earlier gradually disappeared from his sight.
…
Su Yan held Xiaojiao’s hand. After walking a few steps, he looked backward. His pace slowed.
Xiaojiao peered up at him for a long while before asking, “Uncle, what are you looking at?”
Su Yan smiled at her and truthfully replied, “I saw a close—someone I know.”
