I Don’t Want To Be Popular

After dinner at 7:30 in the evening, the three of them left the restaurant and walked slowly in the mall. They passed by the cinema. Wang Xiaoqing wanted to go in and watch a movie, so she took Chen Chuan with her left hand and her mother with her right hand and went in.

They chose "Gemini Man", which started in 15 minutes, and the three of them bought tickets to enter.

Chen Chuan had nothing to do, and he also likes watching movies, so he watched it here. I heard that this film is another 120-frame film by Ang Lee after his previous movie Billy Lynn’s Long Halftime Walk. Chen Chuan said: I'm also interested in this.

After the movie started, the 120-frame picture truly lived up to its reputation. Wang Xiaoqing on the side said that the presbyopia she had suffered for many years had been cured.

The cold style of the movie brings a wonderful viewing experience.

But ten minutes after the show started, Wang Xiaoqing was talking on her cell phone with her head down and sighing.

"It's so annoying. Huang Yiting and Senior Zhao broke up. Now she's sulking in the dormitory. Senior Zhao called her name downstairs and asked her to come down, but she didn't. What's going on? At yesterday's birthday party, the two of them were fine. "?" Wang Xiaoqing said depressedly.

Chen Chuan touched his nose and felt strange. Yes, he just showed off his master's guitar inheritance at his birthday party yesterday. Why did this young couple break up today? Young people's view of love is really casual.

"I may have to go back and take a look. If Zhao Zhitian breaks into our dormitory, things will become big." Wang Xiaoqing said.

"It's not that exaggerated, is it?"

"If there is no best, then I have to go back and comfort Huang Yiting, who is my best friend. Chen Chuan, you and my mother can watch here. I'm going back first. Let's make up for it another day." Wang Xiaoqing was furious, After telling Chen Chuan and her mother, she got up and ran out.

Before her mother could figure out what was going on, she tilted her head and asked in a low voice, "Chen Chuan, why are Xiaoqing going?"

"She went back to the dormitory. Her roommate and her boyfriend broke up, so she went back to take a look." Chen Chuan said.

"oh."

Chen Chuan was originally sitting in the middle, with Wang Xiaoqing on his left and Xu Mengxin on his right.

Now Wang Xiaoqing is gone.

Chen Chuan felt a little embarrassed sitting here alone with Xu Mengxin.

I don't know if it was out of some desire to break the awkward atmosphere, but Xu Mengxin complained to Chen Chuan about the plot of the movie while watching the movie.

"That was Smith when he was young? His computer skills are really amazing. It's so similar."

"Is the heroine a little old? She is about the same age as me, but she is indeed very charming."

"Actually, I can play this kind of role, what do you think? But I haven't acted in many years."

"There was a role the year before last. Jiang Wen asked me to play it, but I didn't go. Later, I found Xu Qing to go. But luckily I didn't go. I saw the movie when it was released, and half of the character's body was exposed. That was not okay."

Xu Mengxin sipped her drink and talked from time to time.

"Yes, yes, yes." Chen Chuan could only agree.

Chen Chuan thought to himself, he didn't know whether what this aunt said was true or not, and it was all about Jiang Wen. Then this aunt was also a figure back then, no wonder she looked like Zhou Huimin. Although Chen Chuan had never heard of her name at all, he noticed that the diamond ring on her finger looked like a pink diamond of at least 1 carat, and the price would not be less than 300,000. It looked quite luxurious. No wonder she was able to pay off the house worth more than five million yuan in full when she paid in the afternoon.

After watching for a while, Chen Chuan felt a little thirsty.

I wanted to take a sip, but when I raised my hand, the drink glass on my right was empty.

Glancing sideways, she saw Xu Mengxin holding one in her hand and another on her right.

"Auntie, my drink..." Chen Chuan reminded.

"Huh?" Xu Mengxin looked at Chen Chuan, then at her right hand, and quickly put down her hand and said, "I took it by mistake. How did I get yours? Wow, I almost finished drinking you. You drink me Yes, there’s still more than half of it inside.”

Xu Mengxin gave hers to Chen Chuan.

"No, no, no," Chen Chuan waved his hand and refused, but he did feel thirsty, so he took it and took a sip. The taste of kumquat lemon milk tea was a little sour and a little sweet.

In the middle and later stages of the movie, the scene was a bit scary. Xu Mengxin covered her eyes like a little girl and did not dare to look at it. She softly said: "Now that the scary part is over, just call me."

"It's over."

"Really? Don't lie to me, I'm a coward." Xu Mengxin said, slowly opening her fingers and looking out from between them.

The nearly 2-hour movie ended at 9:50 pm.

After the movie ended, the subtitles rose, and the audience left one after another, Chen Chuan and Xu Mengxin sat in their seats and thought about it for a while. Watching a movie in a cinema is different from watching it at home. When the screening ends, the audience can sit there and experience it for a while while they leave.

Revelation about time and space, destiny, and love will all be brewed and fermented in these few minutes.

Following the crowd, we came out of the cinema. The mall was about to get off work. We took the escalator downstairs. There was a bleak autumn wind outside and a little drizzle.

The two of them walked slowly. Xu Mengxin had an umbrella in her bag and held it up.

Chen Chuan originally didn't need to hold an umbrella, but he couldn't resist Xu Mengxin's kindness.

Xu Mengxin asked: "How did you and my daughter meet?"

"Last month she bought a car, a DB11, from my dealership. I was there at the time and gave her a discount," Chen Chuan said.

"It turns out you were the one who gave me the discount. She told me that it was RMB 10,000, but I didn't believe it. How could it be so cheap? It seems like you actually gave away the profit. You can be very generous."

"Make a friend."

"What happened later, did you really make friends?" Xu Mengxin said.

"I wasn't that easy to get along with. Later I went to Billy's Music Restaurant for dinner and saw a piano competition held in the restaurant. I played and won the first prize. Wang Xiaoqing came to give me the award and recognized me."

"Oh, so you were the pianist who stole my son's spotlight that day? It's really incredible. Xiaotian has an eighth grade piano and has been studying for more than ten years. You can play guitar and piano, and you have an industry as big as a car dealership. You He is really... the most talented young man I have ever seen. My two children, whom I originally thought were excellent, are really incomparable to you."

"Mild praise, miraculous praise."

"Invite your mother out some other time, and I can have dinner with her?" Xu Mengxin asked.

"Okay, but she's busy at the hotpot restaurant, so she may not be free."

"Which store, I'll go to support you."

"The old store is in Laobei District, and the new store is being renovated. When the new store is finished, please go to the new store."

"Okay." Xu Mengxin took two steps, then turned to look at Chen Chuan and said, "Originally, when you and Xiaoqing were together, I thought you were just young people who like to have fun. Now it seems that I quite hope that you can make it. There is a saying Why don't you ask your mother-in-law to look at your son-in-law? I think you will win."

Chen Chuan scratched his head: "Xiao Qing is only a freshman."

"Yes, you also know that she is only a freshman?" Xu Mengxin's tone was cold.

"?" Chen Chuan was surprised. Is this aunt fishing or joking with herself?

Xu Mengxin had a cold face, then suddenly smiled again and said, "How's your acting skills, auntie?"

"Hey, I was shocked. I thought they suddenly launched an army to investigate, and I was planning to accuse them of everything that happened last night." Chen Chuan said.

"You recruit, recruit and let me listen."

"..."

Walking on a cold rainy night, the two of them arrived at the parking lot holding umbrellas and got into their cars.

Chen Chuan was going back to Hai Yueting, and Xu Mengxin's house was also on that road, so the two cars were going one behind the other.

Xu Mengxin's home is also a villa, but her villa community is open-plan. There is a driveway in the middle of the community, allowing outside cars to enter and exit.

Xu Mengxin's Cayenne stopped in front of a villa. She lowered the car window and said, "I'm here, please slow down on the road."

"Okay, then I'm leaving, Auntie."

As soon as Chen Chuan finished speaking, he heard a "crash" sound.

A dark shadow passed by the villa and ran into the rain.

Xu Mengxin was startled and screamed.

Chen Chuan saw that the glass window of the villa was smashed and asked, "Is it your glass?"

Xu Mengxin touched her chest with her hand and nodded in shock.

"Should we call the police?"

"No, I know who it is. It's okay. Chen Chuan, please go." Xu Mengxin took a breath and said.
