Chapter 166: Ex-girlfriend

"You go in first. I'll come over after I've settled this job I have on hand."

Xia Qingyi smiled, "Alright, then I'll go in to wait for you. I'll keep the ticket at the sales counter so you can just get it from there when you're here."

"Okay, then I'll hang up if there's nothing else."

After they had hung up, Xia Qingyi smiled at her ticket happily and contented. Going back to how they were previously was the most comfortable after all, as she could just tell him if there was anything that had happened. She was never lonely with him around.

A few moments later, the sign in front of her lit up, indicating that the cinema hall was about to be opened. She placed both of the remaining tickets at the sales counter, before she took her ticket and entered the cinema hall.

The movie that Xia Qingyi was watching was an English horror movie. The storyline was fast paced and it was already a little scary even though it had just started. Xia Qingyi gathered all of her attention and watched the movie with utmost seriousness, to the point that she had temporary forgotten that Mo Han was coming.

Ten minutes after the movie had started, Mo Han lowered his head as he apologized to the people around him. He moved in front of a few people to reach his seat. In the meantime, Xia Qingyi was still absorbed in watching the movie with her eyes opened wide and her head ducked in her seat.

Mo Han sat down silently as he watched the movie silently.

Quite a long time had passed when Xia Qingyi relaxed slightly to take a short break from the movie and finally noticed that Mo Han was already sitting next to her.

"When did you arrive?" Xia Qingyi asked softly.

"I've been here for a while now." Mo Han was watching the movie.

"I thought that you might need to work even later."

"I came over once I was done with work."

Xia Qingyi turned back to watch the movie. The movie started to enter its scariest part, though Mo Han was indifferent to it. He merely looked at Xia Qingyi as she kept moving back while shrinking herself. She looked extremely afraid.

The brightness of the screen lit up her eyes as the moisture shining in her eyes made his heart flutter. Instead of watching the movie, it would be more accurate to say that he had been watching her.

He was about to be attracted to her again, Mo Han realized.

Suddenly, Xia Qingyi jumped and grabbed Mo Han's hand that he had placed on the armrest of the seat.

Mo Han's heart skipped a beat. He tried to retract his hand, though Xia Qingyi did not let go as she held onto it tighter. She looked as if she was about to die from fear, as she crouched and squeeze further back into the seat. However, she continued to watch the screen without blinking. It seemed like she had yet to notice that she was grabbing his hand.

Mo Han could not retract his hand. He turned to continue to watch the movie, though his palm continued to rest on hers. He could feel all of his senses concentrating in the warmth of Xia Qingyi's palm.

He quietly finished watching the entire movie without moving.

When the movie had ended, Xia Qingyi was still in the same posture as she had while watching the movie. She kept staring at the end-credit scenes of the movie. The lights of the cinema hall turned on and the people around them started to stand up. Xia Qingyi only broke away from the movie when there were people wanting to pass by them to head out as she shifted her legs to let them pass.
