Sweet Nostalgia of the 80s

Chapter 2529 - 2522: I Don’t Want to Be Apart from You

Ji Chuan gritted his teeth: "It’s all right. Once I return to Nancheng, I’ll visit my future mother-in-law! Once she gives her approval, I can rightfully call you mine! No one can say anything."

.........

Jiangning’s scenery is picturesque, with fragrant camphor trees planted along both sides of the city’s streets, the wind rustling the leaves, and wisps of subtle aroma floating in the air.

Yan Huan, having grown up, left Nancheng for the first time.

She discovered that everything in Jiangning, a thousand miles away from Nancheng, was fresh and new; the local customs, beautiful scenery, and delicious food all had unique characteristics.

She maintained a high level of curiosity, lingering in the streets and parks, leaving behind her silver-bell-like laughter and flower-like smile everywhere.

After lunch, the two of them were tired from playing.

Ji Chuan suggested going to a café for a rest, and the café’s location was great, offering a view of the most bustling street scene in Jiangning City.

However, Yan Huan wasn’t interested in coffee.

The two of them stopped in front of the cinema, and coincidentally, a romantic movie was showing.

"How about we watch a movie?" Yan Huan said, pointing to the promotional poster.

Ji Chuan was, of course, willing.

This dimly lit cinema was the perfect place for young couples to rendezvous—a tub of popcorn, a movie ticket, and they could spend half the afternoon.

"You wait here for me. I’ll go get the tickets." Ji Chuan told Yan Huan to wait at the cinema entrance while he went to the ticket counter to buy the movie tickets.

Yan Huan, feeling a bit tired from wandering, sat on the steps, resting her chin in her hands, watching the bustling crowd on the street.

Suddenly, a striking couple caught her eye.

From a distance, Yan Huan squinted, trying to see clearly if the couple was someone she knew.

"Cheng Yue, I had such a fun morning! How about you?" Shen Qiqi raised her hand gently to wipe the sweat off her forehead, looking up with her water-like eyes at Cheng Yue.

"I had fun too." Cheng Yue glanced down at their tightly held hands, "Qiqi, your palms are sweating!"

"I know, but I don’t want to part with you." Not wanting to separate even for a moment, even with sweaty palms.

Cheng Yue sighed helplessly. Since he agreed to be Shen Qiqi’s boyfriend for a day, he had to go along with everything she planned.

Seeing the helpless expression on Cheng Yue’s face, Shen Qiqi seemed to recall something, and suddenly withdrew her hand, "Are you feeling hot? I was selfish, only thinking of myself."

Cheng Yue didn’t say anything. He noticed the fine beads of sweat on her petite nose and naturally reached out to wipe them for her, "You stay here and wait for me. I’ll get you a soda."

"Okay." Shen Qiqi replied softly, obediently staying put to rest.

She watched Cheng Yue’s tall and slender figure, smiling with lips pursed. Her brother Cheng Yue was always so handsome!

Whether in his teens or young adulthood, he was always a stunning sight in her eyes.

Cheng Yue came back with two bottles of iced soda and noticed Shen Qiqi still standing in the same spot, even though there was a large stone block right beside her that she could have sat on.

But she hadn’t.

After walking around for so long, he thought his own feet were a bit tired, let alone Shen Qiqi, who was wearing high heels.

"Why not sit and wait for me? Wouldn’t that save some effort?" Cheng Yue handed the soda with a straw to Shen Qiqi.

"Well, I didn’t want to get my skirt dirty." Shen Qiqi looked down at her pristine skirt and said softly, "Besides, it’s not convenient to sit in this skirt either.
