Chapter 289 Watching a Movie
Gu Tingyu's eyes held a hint of coquetry as he gently tugged at Li Yan's clothes with both hands.
Seeing Gu Tingyu's expression, Li Yan's heart softened, and she agreed.
Gu Tingyu was as happy as a puppy that had just received a bone, jumping and skipping around.
He thought for a moment, his eyes gleaming with excitement.
"Mom, let's go see a movie. It's been so long since we've seen one."
Li Yan hesitated. She was worried that Gu Tingyu was a public figure now and would be easily recognized if he went out, which would cause unnecessary trouble.
"Xiao Yu, is it really a good idea for you to go out to the movies now? What if someone recognizes you?"
Li Yan frowned, a hint of worry in her eyes.
Gu Tingyu waved his hand dismissively, his eyes radiating confidence.
"Mom, it's okay. So what if I get recognized? I just want to watch a movie with you."
Li Yan couldn't persuade him otherwise, so she had no choice but to nod.
Gu Tingyu excitedly ran to change his clothes, then pulled Li Yan out the door.
The two arrived at the movie theater, which was bustling with people.
In the dimly lit hall, people were either queuing to buy tickets or chatting in the waiting area, and the sweet smell of popcorn filled the air.
Gu Tingyu wore a hat and mask, trying his best to cover his face, while Li Yan followed closely beside him.
Just as they were about to go to the ticket check, they unexpectedly ran into Xu Rou and Zhou Zeran.
Xu Rou linked arms with Zhou Zeran, a faint smile on her face, looking very intimate.
When Li Yan saw them, her eyes showed no emotion, as if she were looking at two strangers. She completely ignored them and prepared to continue walking forward.
However, Xu Rou's eyes lit up the moment she saw Gu Tingyu.
She kept it from Zhou Zeran, let go of his hand, and walked quickly towards Gu Tingyu.
Xu Rou's eyes held a hint of grievance, and her eye sockets were slightly red, like a wronged little rabbit.
"Ah Yu, you're here to watch a movie too?" Her voice was soft and aggrieved.
Xu Rou stood in front of Gu Tingyu, her eyes lowered, not daring to look him in the eye.
When Gu Tingyu saw Xu Rou, he frowned, his eyes no longer showing the tenderness of before, but only a faint distance.
"Yeah, let's go see a movie." His voice was indifferent, as if he were answering someone insignificant.
Xu Rou seemed oblivious to Gu Tingyu's coldness. She bit her lip and continued, "Tingyu, do you not want to be friends with me anymore? I know I did many things wrong before, but I really can't lose you as a friend."
Her voice was tinged with a sob, and her eyes were brimming with tears, looking as if they might fall at any moment.
Li Yan listened from the side and felt extremely uncomfortable, as if countless ants were crawling all over her body.
She couldn't help but retort sarcastically, "Oh, Miss Xu, how touching are your words? When you did those things before, why didn't you think about losing friends? What are you pretending to be pitiful for now?"
Li Yan crossed her arms and a disdainful smile curled at the corners of her mouth.
Xu Rou was slightly startled by Li Yan's words, and her face turned somewhat pale.
She glanced at Li Yan, then at Gu Tingyu, tears welling in her eyes. Her half-crying appearance made her look even more pitiful.
Xu Rou: "Li Yan, I know I offended you before, but A Yu and I have been friends for many years. I just want to salvage our friendship."
