Chapter 180: I Can’t Handle It
Luckily, their location was rather distant and there was no one around. Otherwise, Gu Yan would be blushing hard right now.
Her being flushed was not the effect of alcohol. Rather, it was caused by Lu Ye’s words.
Simultaneously, she felt warm and fuzzy inside.
After drinking a few sips, she felt… peaceful.
For over an hour, the couple had eaten the meal. If it weren’t for the movie they were supposed to watch later on, they would probably remain at the place and keep dining.
Lu Ye originated from the Southern Star Region. Even so, he showed his manly side that was akin to northern men in some aspects.
However, the amount of dominance he exerts was just the right amount. At least for Gu Yan, it wasn’t overbearing. After all, each and every one of his actions were done for her own good.
Since Lu Ye was reluctant to have her drink too much, Gu Yan complied.
As for him, he remained true to his words. He didn’t get drunk.
His starry eyes grew brighter and brighter by the minute.
Lu Ye rushed to settle the bill. He said, “You don’t have to compete when it comes to paying, what is mine is yours anyways.”
Gu Yan accepted his goodwill in the end. Following their departure from the restaurant, Gu Yan remarked, “Lu Ye, you’re not like someone from the Southern Star Region at all.”
She quickly added, “Not completely different though, but how do I say it? You’re not the same as those typical southern men.”
“Actually, my grandfather is from the Northern Star Region. He got assigned to the south during the war. Later on, he remained there.”
Lu Ye used his scarf to protect Gu Yan from the snow. “Yan, are you cold?”
“No, I just finished eating. I feel quite warm,” Gu Yan reassured him and leaned towards Lu Ye before adding, “It’s not cold when the snow first lands. The freezing sensation only occurs when it melts.”
“Mhm, the cinema isn’t far from here. Let’s walk.” Lu Ye really wanted to spend more time with his little wife. An additional ten minutes greatly made him feel overjoyed.
He grabbed Gu Yan’s left hand and placed it inside his pocket. “Warm up your right hand inside your pocket too. Your injury hasn’t recovered yet. Don’t get frostbitten.”
“Seeing you talk this much makes you seem more like a man from the Southern Star Region.” Gu Yan’s lips curled up, but she still acquiesced.
Lu Ye raised a brow. “This isn’t being talkative. This is caring for my little wife. Other people don’t get this kind of treatment even if they want to hear it.”
“Mhm, this is being meticulous.” Gu Yan was entertained. She tickled Lu Ye’s palm with her finger.
Lu Ye: …
His tone turned dangerous. “Wife, don’t play around with me. After drinking, I might not be able to handle it.”
“I am not playing around.” She wasn’t going to admit such things.
Gu Yan continued, “Hurry up! Otherwise, the movie is going to start.”
Lu Ye sighed. “Why do I feel you have gotten me good despite not being married yet?”
“Oh… what now? Don’t you want to?”
“No.” Lu Ye squeezed her hand and looked at her deeply. “I love it.”
The snow had piled up on the ground already. Crunching sounds were left each time they trod in it, delighting the people around.
The distance between the hotpot establishment and the cinema wasn’t that far. In less than 20 minutes, they had reached their destination.
Lu Ye made Gu Yan stand in a cozy location while he went to buy the tickets.
“I’m going to the toilet first. Let’s meet here later.”
“Mhm, okay.”
Gu Yan turned around and went to the restroom on the second floor.
There was a blackboard along the corridor. She didn’t notice what was written on it.
Nevertheless, after walking a few steps forward, she felt something wasn’t right.
There was no one around in the restroom of the cinema.
This was too strange…
‘Did the blackboard say something about repairs?’
Just when she planned to return and finally check it, she heard a familiar voice.
“Haoran…”
