“Hello . ”

“Hello, Ziming . I’m back . Let’s meet at the usual place today! I haven’t seen you in so long . I miss you so much!”

The familiar voice made him lower his eyelids a little . After a short pause, he answered lightly, “I’m not free . ”

“Not free? Are you really not free or do you just not want to meet me?”

The sweetness in the caller’s voice dimmed as it carried a tinge of unhappiness .

“… I’m really not free . ” He peeked at the woman beside him, wearing headphones and paying attention to the movie, and said this on the phone .

“Isn’t today the start of the year? Why aren’t you free?” The woman on the other end was not about to drop this matter .

“Hey, Ziming . Don’t you think that you are a little rude on me? For whose sake was I sent alone overseas in the first place?

“Now that I’m finally back, I don’t even have a house to stay! I called you the moment I landed, yet you are actually telling me that you’re not free!

“Ziming, am I, Qiao Jingyun, really a normal person to you?!”

The grumbling coming from the phone made him frown deeply .

“Jingyun…” He sighed softly and then revealed a helpless expression .

It was clear that the person calling was not a normal person, or else he would not reveal such an expression .

“Don’t call me . I’m angry now . Hmph!”

The woman on the other end pouted and pretended to be angry as she grumbled like a kid .

“I’m really not free today . ” He took a deep breath, still frowning . He seemed to be at a loss on how to handle the woman on the other end .

“I don’t care; I must see you today no matter how busy you are!” she unreasonably demanded .

“Anyway, I’ll go to our usual place to wait for you now . If you don’t appear, I will keep waiting until you do!”

She hung up quickly after this, not waiting for his reply .

He looked at his phone with lowered lids . His expression was dark and hard to decipher .

At this moment, the woman beside him was at the part where the main leads in a relationship were about to break up .

Pei Ge, who was a highly emotional person, could not help but sob along with the movie’s touching scenes .

The sobbing attracted his attention .

“What’s wrong? Why are you crying?”

He picked up some tissue from the coffee table and gently wiped her tears away .

She removed her headphones to hear him speak .

“Nothing . I cry easily, so I’m affected by such scenes . ” She received the tissue from him, blew her nose, and then smiled .

He shook his head in amusement as he watched her laugh and cry at the same time .

“It’s just a movie . ”

“It is just a movie, but I still feel sad when I see such scenes . They clearly like each other so much, but the scriptwriter just has to torture them like that . ” She grumbled about this after wiping her tears clean .

“That scriptwriter is so bad for creating so much misunderstanding between the two to hurt them…”

He could not help but raise a brow at her complaints, regretting a little for choosing this movie .

“Don’t watch it if you’re not happy . ”

He brought her to watch a movie and make her happy .

Since the movie was making her sad, he would rather not have her watch it .

“Who says I’m unhappy? I just cry easily! Any-Anyway, just wait a little more; they will surely patch things up! Aiya, I wanna continue watching . Don’t bother me!”

She glared at him before putting on her headphones to keep watching the movie .

She did not even know that he had received a call .

He looked at her gentle smile while she watched the movie raptly .

Slowly, his thoughts drifted away while gazing at the fair-skinned lady next to him .

He recalled doing this with another woman in the past . They went on a date to the cinemas like normal people did .

At that time, he also used…

“Ziming? Ziming?” Pei Ge tugged at him . When she came to herself and saw him staring her dazedly, she asked curiously, “What are you thinking about?”

Having recovered, he noticed her curiosity but shook his head lightly . “Nothing important . Has the movie ended?”

“Yes, it has!” She nodded and smiled, oblivious to him blanking out while gazing at her .

This annoying fellow probably dislikes watching movies in the first place, especially this type of cliché, romantic-comedy movies .

“What’s next? What are we doing next after this?”

She excitedly looked at him . As she was slightly affected by the movie, she became more expectant of today’s date .

“Where do you wanna go?” He held her hand as he softly inquired .

“Today is our first date, so you must decide everything!” She blinked at him with a sly look .

He could not help but pause at this .

Another woman had told him the same thing in the past…

“Let’s go . ”

He got up off the sofa and walked out with her, their hands clasped .

“Where are we going? Where are we going?” She held his hand tightly and trailed after him curiously .

“Let’s go buy some things . You must make yourself look more beautiful before we go meet my parents,” he casually replied .

“Ah! If you didn’t mention it, I’d really forget about that!”

She instantly became more active and excited at this .

When they reached the shopping area on the third level, she did not continue following him but ‘took the reigns’ and pulled him along to shop .

What the two did not know was that their actions had been captured by someone and sent to a certain woman’s phone .

“Ziming…”
