Pursuing Her Best Friend after Confession Failed Chapter 137 - 100: The Silent Cinema, Bai Weixi Takes the In

Xu Zhi lived up to his reputation as a thoughtful guy, having prepared popcorn, milk tea, and ice-cold cola.

Li Yuan hadn’t seen Bai Weixi’s movie ticket and only discovered that their seats were together after entering the theater. He cast a suspicious glance at Xu Zhi, who was seated on his other side. Xu Zhi gave him a mischievous smile, making it clear he had done it on purpose.

As soon as she sat down, Bai Weixi suddenly whispered, "Li Yuan, this is the first ti the two of us are watching a movie in a cinema, isn’t it?"

Li Yuan humd softly. Back in his small county hotown, there weren’t any modern cinemas in 2008, just an old theater.

Bai Weixi’s cheeks flushed as she moved closer to Li Yuan, the scent of her perfu wafting over. "This is my first ti watching a movie."

Li Yuan just nodded. He understood what she ant.

Seeing the indifference on Li Yuan’s face, Bai Weixi felt incredibly wronged. She had been so proactive, yet he remained so aloof.

I don’t even know what I’m thinking myself. Not long after returning to this era, I resented Bai Weixi. Later, I felt it would be a waste to let her off so easily; I wanted to take her virginity and then kick her to the curb. But after arriving at university, her coldness after I forcefully kissed her, the essay she wrote later, and my eting Xia Zhijin—a true treasure of a girl—made my vengeful thoughts fade completely. Humans are emotional creatures. Whether in my past life or this one, I’m just an ordinary person. I have neither the vision of a Reincarnator nor the character and skills of a true playboy. Ultimately, even though I’ve been reborn, I’m still the sa person—utterly ordinary, with nothing to offer besides being handso. Compared to my previous life, I’ve rely transford from a fake "second-generation rich kid" to a genuine "first-generation wealthy man," and that’s all...

Li Yuan was silent, and so was Bai Weixi. The atmosphere grew awkward.

Fortunately, the movie quickly began, as the robot WALL-E made his grand entrance on screen.

Li Yuan had seen it countless tis and naturally had no interest. He couldn’t play with his phone in the pitch-dark theater, so he just leaned back in his seat and began pondering the future of his company.

The online ga *Honor of Kings* has been greenlit and is now in thodical developnt, which will be a long-term process. The Zhihu website is also being built under Lin Yuwei and her team’s leadership, with the first test at least a week away. Websites and gas are just two of the many entrepreneurial ventures I’ve planned; there are other ways to make big money still lying in my files... Perhaps I should consider starting a food delivery website. The current prospects for the food delivery market are imnse. ituan, Ele., and others either haven’t been established yet or are just starting out. If I could leverage the power of the Zhihu website to expand across university campuses first, the potential would be enormous. The only problem is that food delivery is a massive cash burn. The money I have now wouldn’t even be a drop in the bucket...

Bai Weixi wasn’t in the mood to watch the movie at all. Even though it had high ratings and was captivating after just a few glances, she couldn’t focus. She stole several glances at Li Yuan, only to see him "sleeping" with his eyes closed, which only intensified the sense of loss, hurt, and anguish welling up inside her.

She couldn’t understand what she had done wrong. Aside from rejecting his confession at Wanfo Pagoda Park, what could have possibly made him treat her this way? He had kissed her, after all. At the thought, Bai Weixi felt so wronged she wanted to cry.

Back then, she had fantasized that Li Yuan would co and coax her, but in the blink of an eye, with the revelation of his identity as the Great Writer, he was about to slip completely out of her reach. Lost in these thoughts, tears began to fall from Bai Weixi’s eyes. They reddened as she gazed at Li Yuan’s profile. Li Yuan, still absorbed in his business ideas, didn’t notice her soft sobbing.

Ti flew by as the movie’s plot unfolded.

Feeling a surge of resentnt, Bai Weixi looked at Li Yuan for a long ti before finally making up her mind. She reached out her soft hand and, summoning imnse courage, took the initiative to hold a boy’s hand for the first ti in her life.

When her hand touched his, Li Yuan jolted, instantly snapping out of his business fantasies. He didn’t pull away but instead stared at her with a puzzled expression. This was the first ti in two lifetis he had ever seen Bai Weixi so proactively take his hand.

In the dim light from the movie screen, Bai Weixi’s eyes shimred with tears. She stared intently at Li Yuan, wanting to say sothing but not knowing how to begin. They looked at each other in silence until Bai Weixi suddenly spoke.

"Li Yuan, I just want to know one thing. What did I do wrong for you to treat this way?"

Li Yuan was taken aback by the question. Looking into her sincere eyes, he was at a loss for how to respond.

At this point, perhaps not yet influenced by years of college life, her innate ’green tea’ nature hasn’t awakened. If you were to ask what she did wrong? Her only mistake is that I’ve been reborn.

Li Yuan’s silence gave her hope. She held his hand tightly, shifted closer, and leaned against him. As they pressed together, she could feel the unique warmth where their bodies t.

"Li Yuan, let’s go back to how it was before. Don’t leave , okay? I promise to be your girlfriend."

How amusing, Li Yuan thought. The proud ’green tea’ who repeatedly rejected my confessions and kept on the hook has a side like this? Indeed, the grandmasters were right all along.

An idea flashed through his mind, and he decided to give her another chance to engage in this push-and-pull.

Looking into Bai Weixi’s beautiful, tear-filled eyes, he spoke coolly, "If you want to be my girlfriend, then you must fulfill a girlfriend’s duties. Can you do that?"

Bai Weixi instantly understood the implication in his words. Hesitation flickered in her eyes, but she ultimately made up her mind. She nodded and whispered a single word in reply.

"Mm."

A smile curved Li Yuan’s lips as he looked at her eyes, her delectable face, and those red lips that had once haunted his dreams. Without the slightest hesitation, he leaned in and claid them.

Their lips t, a warm and sweet sensation completely different from their last kiss at the train station. This ti, Bai Weixi did not resist, allowing him to break through one barrier after another, her response awkward yet passionate.
