Pursuing Her Best Friend after Confession Failed Chapter 136 - 100: The Silent Cinema, Bai Weixi Takes the In

Li Yuan started the car and asked, "Where are you guys planning to go? Do you have any plans?"

Xu Zhi had actually done so research. The mont Wang Yuchen ntioned getting together, he had already looked up nearby restaurants, movie theaters, and amusent parks, formulating a plan for their first Modu high school alumni gathering.

Xu Zhi looked at Li Yuan and Bai Weixi. "So, this is my plan: first we go to a KTV to sing, then we have dinner, and after that, we watch a movie. I hear the recently released ’WALL-E’ has great reviews. As for the location, we can go to Longyu Mall near Daxia University. They have everything there."

"What do you all think?"

Li Yuan, Bai Weixi, and Wang Shuai all remained surprisingly silent.

This made Xu Zhi antsy. Isn’t this a standard plan for a get-together? Why isn’t anyone saying anything?

Xu Zhi nudged Wang Shuai with his elbow. "Handso guy, why don’t you go first?"

Wang Shuai awkwardly rubbed his head. "I’m good with whatever you guys decide. I’m easy."

Speechless, Xu Zhi pouted and turned to Bai Weixi in the passenger seat. "Bai, what do you think? If you have any suggestions, feel free to share them so we can discuss it."

Bai Weixi was feeling a bit down. She snuck a glance at Li Yuan’s profile and said softly, "Hmm, that’s fine."

That just left Li Yuan. Xu Zhi patted his shoulder.

Li Yuan said flatly, "Then let’s go with that."

Xu Zhi let out a sigh of relief. It was just a simple get-together, but planning the itinerary was surprisingly stressful for him.

Wang Yuchen suddenly frowned and chid in, "Xu Dazhi, how co you didn’t ask for my opinion?"

Xu Zhi looked puzzled. Didn’t we agree on this beforehand? Why the sudden change of heart?

Being quick on the uptake, he promptly apologized, "Sorry, Yuchen, I forgot to ask you. What’s on your mind?"

Wang Yuchen thought for a mont, a cryptic smile on her face. "I think we should see the movie first, then have dinner and go singing. It’s already past three. By the ti we get to the KTV, we’ll only be able to sing for a few hours. That wouldn’t be very satisfying and would feel rather pointless."

Li Yuan was rather speechless. It seed Wang Yuchen was also a die-hard singing fan, though he had no idea if her singing was as good as Bai Weixi’s.

Xu Zhi asked, "Does anyone have any objections?"

Everyone nodded in agreent.

"Alright, it’s settled. We’ll go to the movie theater first. Let’s head out."

Li Yuan chuckled and sped the car toward Longyu Building.

He found it a bit amusing and odd. This was his second ti at this movie theater in two days, and for the sa movie each ti. One visit was with a new love, and the other with an old fla. It was as if he were two-timing them.

Fortunately, my mindset has changed, or I would have had to endure more inner turmoil. Still, this feeling is quite interesting and exciting.

In the car, Wang Yuchen asked curiously, "Li Yuan, is this your new car?"

Li Yuan replied nonchalantly, "Rented."

Wang Yuchen breathed a sigh of relief, pouted, and huffed, "I knew it. An Audi A8 costs several hundred thousand. You’ve just started university; why buy a car so soon?"

"Big Writer Li, can you tell us when you started writing? You’re so amazing, your book is already going viral all over the internet."

"A freshman with a monthly inco of a million, tsk tsk. I can hardly believe it when I hear it. How did you do it?"

Wang Yuchen bombarded him with one question after another, while Wang Shuai, Xu Zhi, and even Bai Weixi waited curiously for Li Yuan’s response.

Li Yuan pondered for a mont before speaking calmly, "I started writing after the college entrance exams were over."

Though his words were casual, the listeners took them to heart.

Bai Weixi’s thoughts suddenly leaped back to the day she rejected Li Yuan’s confession in Wanfo Pagoda Park. His reaction and behavior at the ti had puzzled her for a long ti.

Before coming today, she had also quietly read so of "Battle Starry Sky" and noticed that its publication date was right after she had politely rejected Li Yuan’s confession.

So, that’s when he buckled down and started creating. ’Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river’... He’s alluding to , isn’t he? The character based on in that book must be Nalan Yanran, right? Calling off an engagent, having a confession rejected... Heh, what a petty man. Then who is his Little Doctor Immortal, who is his ntor Yunyun, and who is his Xiao Xun’er?

At that mont, Bai Weixi’s mind teed with bizarre and fanciful thoughts. Even though she knew it was just a novel, she felt that so parts of it could possibly beco reality.

If Li Yuan sees as Nalan Yanran, do I still have a chance?

The tempest in Bai Weixi’s already restless heart erupted into a full-blown storm of self-doubt. She beca so lost in thought that she didn’t even hear the conversation in the car until Wang Yuchen tapped her on the shoulder.

"Bai, we’re here. Ti to get out."

"Oh, we’ve arrived already?" Bai Weixi was sowhat dazed.

...

At the movie theater, Xu Zhi took the initiative to go and buy the tickets.

"Yuan, here’s your ticket."

Li Yuan took the ticket and glanced at it. Row 12, Seat 11—a seat at the very end of the back row.

Bai Weixi also took the movie ticket Xu Zhi handed her. It read Row 12, Seat 12.

Wang Shuai secretly glanced at the tickets in the hands of the other four, then looked down at his own: Row 6, Seat 6. He suddenly felt the overhead lights were a bit too glaring.

He cursed silently, Damn it, I’m the only single dog here, a total third wheel. Maybe I shouldn’t be here today. I should be under the car instead.

Even for an afternoon showing, the movie theater was packed.
