Chapter 237: Chapter 237 This is the First Time Watching a Movie with Qiaoqiao Chapter 237: Chapter 237 This is the First Time Watching a Movie with Qiaoqiao Gu Qiaoqiao got out of the car.
And then, a few dozen meters ahead, she indeed saw a movie theater.
ThisâŠ
Who goes to watch a movie early in the morning?
Gu Qiaoqiao squinted her eyes, leaning against the car door without moving, watching Qin Yize with a smile that wasnât quite a smile.
She couldnât always be led by the nose by him.
Qin Yize, however, remained calm and collected, though his ears were somewhat hot.
But in a standoff like this, it would be bad to lose.
He kept a composed face, using his gaze to question Gu Qiaoqiao.
After a few moments, Gu Qiaoqiao conceded defeat; when it came to a standoff, she couldnât beat Qin Yize.
Helplessly, she said, âAre you using checking on the store as a cover, but you actually wanted to come watch a movie?â
Qin Yize naturally wouldnât admit it, pointing at the movie theater with an innocent smile, âJust passing by.â
âOh?â Gu Qiaoqiao raised her eyebrows, still not believing him.
âIâve been so busy traveling these past years, Iâve almost forgotten what it feels like to watch a movie,â Qin Yize said, his voice surprisingly tinged with melancholy.
Gu Qiaoqiao didnât agree or disagree.
In the end, Gu Qiaoqiao was still pulled into the movie theater by Qin Yize.
This was an old film.
Surprisingly, it was showing in the morning.
Today was Sunday, and unexpectedly, there was a decent crowd.
The two of them sat in the middle seats.
The atmosphere was somewhat subtle.
Gu Qiaoqiao couldnât quite identify the feeling in her heart.
It was a bit awkward, and also inexplicably sourâŠ
Just that she hadnât expected that, halfway through, Qin Yize would actually fall asleepâŠ
Gu Qiaoqiao, speechless, looked at the man next to her who even in sleep sat up straight.
That tired?
Or was the movie boring?
She suddenly remembered hearing noises from the living room last night; had he gone out again in the middle of the night?
Perhaps that was the case.
Otherwise, why would he be so tired?
A trace of unexplainable emotion rose in the depths of Gu Qiaoqiaoâs heart. Why was he pushing himself so hard?
Were ideals and beliefs really that important?
But at that moment, Qin Yizeâs long eyelashes trembled, and he slowly opened his eyes.
Gu Qiaoqiao didnât move her gaze away in time, and suddenly found herself falling into a pair of eyes as deep as the cold waters of autumn.
In those eyes, different from usual, was the grogginess of awakening, and a flash of joy upon seeing Gu Qiaoqiao right beside him.
Her heart quivered.
In a fluster, she looked away.
Qin Yize turned his head to watch the movie that was still projecting, annoyed with himself for falling asleep during a movie when he could go several days and nights without sleeping.
This was, after all, the first time watching a movie with Qiaoqiao.
The movie was still playing.
Gu Qiaoqiao had seen this movie before and wanted to ask Qin Yize if he didnât like it, they could leave early.
However, at this moment, Qin Yize seemed to be watching very intently.
So Gu Qiaoqiao didnât speak.
Meanwhile, at a certain hospital in the Imperial Capital,
Ning Wanru and Gu Cheng arrived at the hospital corridor where Gu Qingfeng was admitted and, this time, successfully met with him.
Thinking about it, Ning Wanru hadnât seen him for more than a decade.
Since the end of that campaign, she had moved into the North Mountain Villa, while Old Master Gu remained in Gu Garden.
Gu Qingfeng had aged.
But his demeanor and attitude were the same as before.
Seeing her, he didnât talk much, just calmly asked, âWhatâs the matter?â
Ning Wanru hid the complex thoughts in her eyes, sat down on a chair, took out a handkerchief to wipe the corners of her eyes, and choked up, âCheng, show the photo to the Old Patriarch.â
Gu Cheng handed the photo to Gu Qingfeng.
Gu Qingfeng and Uncle Gu exchanged glances; it was more or less what they had guessed.
