Chapter 7 – How many decades does a person have in their lifetime?
Before long, Si Hua came out.
He Ju subconsciously took two steps back, then his gaze fell on Si Hua.
She was wearing a pair of silver high heels, and the bright red long skirt set off her snow-white skin, making her look extremely alluring. She slightly lifted her clear eyes and leisurely unbuttoned the top button, revealing her beautiful collarbone. Her exquisite face and stunning features were indescribable, and her striking eyebrows and eyes were incredibly beautiful, exuding the aura of a mature woman.@@@@
He Ju had never felt this way about anyone else.
Only Si Hua...
He Ju quickly averted his gaze, his ears turning red.
Because he looked away too quickly, he missed the sly glint in Si Hua's eyes.
Si Hua calmly concealed her emotions, adjusted her hair, and was determined to smooth out He Ju's scars with her charm.
Si Hua: "Let's go."
He Ju agreed, and the two of them entered the elevator together.
***
On the ground floor, Si Hua switched to a BMW this time, and of course, He Ju was the one driving.
He Ju had already seen the movie theater before picking up Si Hua, so he brought her directly here.
After parking the car, the two of them got out, and He Ju asked Si Hua, "Sister Si Hua, what movie do you want to watch?"
Si Hua casually chose a horror movie.
He Ju was surprised that a girl could be so brave.
He Ju liked watching horror movies.
He had watched movies with Su Ran a few times before, but it was always at his request, and Su Ran only liked to watch youthful painful literature and nothing else.
He Ju now realized...
He was the protagonist of youthful painful literature.
***
He Ju bought the tickets, as well as popcorn and cola. Just as they arrived, the two of them went inside.
Little did they know, someone took a picture of He Ju and Si Hua from behind and sent it directly to Su Ran.
When Su Ran received the photo from her classmate, she thought it was a mistake. But He Ju's height of 1.85 meters and his outfit of a hoodie and casual pants made it impossible for her to look away.
But as soon as they arrived, the movie ended, and they couldn't find He Ju anywhere inside.
Liu Jia was anxious and looked down, only to see the familiar figure of He Ju going down the escalator, with a girl by his side. She couldn't see the girl's face clearly, but she was the girl in the picture with Su Ran.
Liu Jia wanted to take the elevator down, but it was crowded and noisy due to overloading.
For the first time, Liu Jia lost control. She didn't even have time to call Su Ran and just lifted her skirt and ran towards the escalator, "Excuse me, please let me through..."
Liu Jia ran all the way down, even forgetting that taking the fire escape might be faster.Su Ran turned around to see Liu Jia running hurriedly, which surprised her. Liu Jia was famously gentle and virtuous. In all the years Su Ran had known her, she had never seen Liu Jia lose her composure like this.
Su Ran glanced at the cinema again and then hurried off to find Liu Jia.
But when Liu Jia ran out of the movie theater, all she saw was a BMW driving past her, and amidst the surging crowd, she could no longer see that familiar figure.
With trembling hands, Liu Jia took out her phone and dialed He Ju's number.
The moment the call connected, Liu Jia's heart nearly leapt out of her throat: "He Ju, where are you?"
He Ju was silent for a few seconds before telling Liu Jia: "Jia Jia, I know you must have come to plead Su Ran's case, but please tell her that I am a person too, and I want to live a normal life. Let's just live our own lives."
After saying that, He Ju immediately hung up the phone.
Liu Jia: "I'm not here to... beep beep beep..." Before she could finish, the line went dead.
Liu Jia's face instantly turned pale.
At this moment, Su Ran also caught up, panting: "Jia Jia, what's wrong? What did you see? Why did you run so fast?"
Liu Jia looked at Su Ran with her big, shiny eyes, her face expressionless, yet somehow it sent a chill down Su Ran's spine.
Su Ran chuckled awkwardly: "What... what's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?"
Liu Jia: "Su Ran, do you like He Ju? Or rather, what do you think of him?"
Su Ran found it strange; Liu Jia had never asked her such questions before.
Su Ran: "Does it matter whether I like him or not?"
Liu Jia: "Of course it matters. Su Ran, He Ju has liked you for ten years. How many decades does a person get in a lifetime? If you don't like him, then what was your purpose for coming here today?"
Su Ran was left speechless by Liu Jia's question. Indeed, what was she doing here?
Su Ran closed her eyes: "I see He Ju as a brother, and naturally, I had to come and check on my future sister-in-law, right?"
Liu Jia's expression was indescribable for a moment.
In the end, Liu Jia said with a slight annoyance: "You, you're just stubborn to the core!"
