Chapter 145: The cost of flirting now is too high

Jiang Xu, on the other hand, hoped that in the future, she wouldn’t just bite him, but could also… bite himself…
She had just bitten him because he had teased her a little.
“Ah, Nuonuo, you were much cuter when you were shy.”
An Nuonuo pouted her lips: “It’s your fault for picking on me.”
Jiang Xu: “What I did is called… fine, forget I said anything.”
Seeing her about to take out her mobile phone, Jiang Xu promptly shut his mouth.
This little lass was now fearless with the backup of Lord Chen Yue.
However.
Just wait until they went to university, hmph!
At that time the emperor would be far away, and he would see if she could still be so ‘arrogant’.
During the long vacation, everywhere was crowded.
The two of them ate something at the snack street before heading to the cinema.
There were only two seats left, and they were in the middle.
As everyone knows, the best seats in the cinema are definitely the ones in the back corners.
What?
You say that it’s not convenient to watch the movie from there?
Please, do people come to the cinema to actually watch the movie?
“Wow, this movie seems very popular,” An Nuonuo, observing the people around them, said to Jiang Xu: “Congratulations.”
The better Jiang Xu’s accomplishments were, the happier she felt.
Jiang Xu, on the other hand, didn’t experience much of an emotional fluctuation.
He had sold the three-year copyright of “Youth and Sorrow” to Wang Xiaoyuan for a price of 450,000 yuan.
No matter how successful the movie was, he wouldn’t receive any direct financial benefits.
At the most, it could contribute to his fame a bit.
The two of them sat down.
As Jiang Xu glanced around, other than an empty seat next to him, rest were all taken.
The movie would begin in a few minutes, and right now, ads were being played.
He didn’t know who came up with the idea.
He had already bought movie tickets, and now they were making him bloody watch ads.
Suddenly, a familiar scent reached his nose.
Jiang Xu turned his head to look.
A woman had sat down in the empty seat next to him.
She was wearing sunglasses and a mask, and her clothes were very common.
However, Jiang Xu recognized who she was at first glance.
Zhou Qingyue!
Jiang Xu almost rolled his eyes at the sight.
Talking about acting like a big celebrity.
Sunglasses and masks.
Did she really think she was a big celebrity?
All she played in were two low-budget films.
When Zhou Qingyue sat down and caught sight of Jiang Xu, she stiffened for a moment.
Her gaze moved from Jiang Xu and landed on An Nuonuo, who even after putting on elaborate makeup, could not surpass her in terms of beauty.
An Nuonuo also saw Zhou Qingyue.
Although Zhou disguised herself well.
But a young girl’s sensitivity and intuition were often sharper than those of normal people.
So, she figured out it was Zhou Qingyue right away.
She politely greeted, “Hello, Zhou.”
Zhou Qingyue ignored her, her gaze fixed on the big screen.
She exuded a cold, indifferent aura, as if warning strangers not to come near.
“Here, have some potato chips,” Jiang Xu handed Nuonuo the bag of chips, “Watch the movie, don’t talk.”
There was nothing much he wanted to talk about with Zhou Qingyue, so it was fine to treat her as a stranger.
“Oh…” Nuonuo nodded.
After enduring several minutes of long ads, at last, the feature film started.
The cinema suddenly fell silent.
With Jiang Xu’s past life experience of watching countless films, he could tell…
Just from the opening scene, he knew that this movie wouldn’t be bad.
The actors, the degree to which the plot was reproduced in the film, etc., Jiang Xu was very satisfied with all of it.
The first half was cheerful.
The cinema was also filled with laughter and chatter.
The latter half, however, was full of pathos.
Quite a few young girls had started crying.
Some others cursed the heartless author for writing this plotline, with threats of sending him razor blades.
Jiang Xu maintained a calm expression.
After all, they had no idea who the author was.
An Nuonuo also cried, her eyes all red.
Jiang Xu pulled out a tissue and handed it to her.
Bringing tissues when outing with girls was a must.
If you are capable, items like your identification, umbrella and such could also be brought…
“Give me a tissue.” Zhou Qingyue from the side stretched out her hand.
At the same time, she threw a fifty-yuan note onto Jiang Xu’s lap.
To this, Jiang Xu’s reply was just one word: “Scram!”
Zhou Qingyue tossed another note, with a higher face value.
One hundred yuan.
She coldly ordered: “Tissue, hand it over!”
This woman, after acting in two dramas, her aura had become quite strong.
However, in Jiang Xu’s eyes, it was just an example of her being full of herself.
He lifted the tissue, placing it in front of her.
Zhou Qingyue reached out to grab it.
Jiang Xu loosened his grip, and the tissue fell to the ground.
Then, he stepped on it, before lifting his foot: “You can take it, it’s free.”
Underneath the sunglasses, Zhou Qingyue’s eyes flickered with anger.
This was a direct insult to her!
“Zhou, I have an unused one here,”
An Nuonuo stood up and placed the tissue on her lap.
Quickly sitting down to avoid disturbing the audience behind them.
Then she leaned towards Jiang Xu’s ear and whispered softly: “Can we stop arguing and watch the movie?”
The sweet breath of the girl had Jiang Xu somewhat distracted.
He nodded and continued watching the film.
Zhou Qingyue removed her sunglasses, wiped her tears, and then put them back on.
The film ended.
The whole cinema, most girls had cried at least once.
There were also some couples, the girlfriends complained about their boyfriends not crying, accusing them of being cold-hearted.
Then, some boyfriends started crying too.
If they didn’t, they might lose their girlfriends.
Jiang Xu placed a hand on An Nuonuo’s shoulder, allowing others to leave first.
To avoid any crowding.
The woman, Zhou Qingyue, didn’t leave either.
Jiang Xu became wary.
Was she planning on causing trouble again?
When the others had all left, Jiang Xu pulled An Nuonuo up and prepared to leave.
He didn’t want to spend another second with Zhou Qingyue.
Seeing this, Zhou Qingyue also got up and followed them out.
Once outside, Jiang Xu turned around to look at Zhou Qingyue, who had followed them.
He frowned: “What do you want now?”
Zhou Qingyue addressed An Nuonuo: “I just wanted to have a word with you.”
Jiang Xu coldly retorted: “She has nothing to talk to you about.”
This vicious woman, he didn’t know what ploy she was concocting now.
Zhou Qingyue took off her sunglasses and mask.
Suddenly, she bowed deeply toward An Nuonuo: “I’m sorry for how I behaved last time.
Could you forgive me, since we’re classmates?”
An Nuonuo was stunned, she hastily helped Zhou Qingyue straighten up, “Oh no, Zhou, I’ve never held a grudge against you.”
An Nuonuo was kind-hearted, while Jiang Xu just stared coldly at Zhou Qingyue.
This woman, she was not someone who would easily admit a mistake.
There was a reason for her behavior.
If there weren’t so many people around, and An Nuonuo wasn’t by his side,
Jiang Xu, wanting to maintain his image, would have punched her.
Zhou Qingyue spoke again: “Thank you, shall we add each other as friends?”
Then she pulled out her mobile phone.
An Nuonuo didn’t refuse.
After they added each other as friends, Zhou Qingyue started to act as though they were close, linking her arm with hers.
She laughed and said: “To make up for my past mistakes, let me treat you to a meal.”
