Chapter 1622: Getting More and More Improper
She simply raised her hand to pinch Jiang Chenghao's chin, like a little succubus, and said, "Silly, you don't need to fantasize about this."
Xu Xiaoxiao was just teasing Jiang Chenghao.
Jiang Chenghao even followed her movement, gently lifting his chin.
He was quite cooperative.
Now that the teasing was done and the chatting was over, Xu Xiaoxiao prepared to stop and continue watching her movie.
But the moment she withdrew her finger, her wrist was gripped by Jiang Chenghao.
The temperature of his palm was a bit hot, and he grabbed Xu Xiaoxiao's hand, intending to leave.
Xu Xiaoxiao never expected Jiang Chenghao to play it this way; she was startled and hurriedly asked, "What are you doing?"
"Going home to do everything I was just thinking about."
This...
Xu Xiaoxiao pulled hard on Jiang Chenghao's arm and whispered, "Don't mess around."
"I'm not messing around, I'm serious."
To make Xu Xiaoxiao feel his sincerity, Jiang Chenghao stared straight at her.
Xu Xiaoxiao understood that look all too well.
But Xu Xiaoxiao could not indulge his nonsense!
She pressed down on Jiang Chenghao's shoulder and coaxed him, "But I haven't finished the movie yet. Let me finish the finale first, be good!"
"Fine, then I'll wait a little longer."
Jiang Chenghao appeared to concede.
But the meaning behind his words...
Why did it feel like he was planning to settle the score later?
Xu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but shiver, thinking that this guy really couldn't handle being teased.
Her beautiful eyes turned slightly, and as Xu Xiaoxiao thought of something else, she asked in a low voice, "The books I bought for you, have you read them?"
Jiang Chenghao knew which books Xu Xiaoxiao was referring to.
Honestly, just looking at those titles made Jiang Chenghao feel sleepy.
It was hard on Xu Xiaoxiao to have to search through a vast sea of books to buy those bizarre things back.
At this moment, he tilted his head slightly and said with a half-smile, "I read them, but I... don't accept what's in them."
"Huh?" Xu Xiaoxiao widened her eyes, looking puzzled, "Those books are full of pearls of wisdom, why don't you accept them?!"
"Because I only want to spend time with you under the flowers and moonlight."
This was clearly a very flowery sentence; if it crossed the line even a little, it would seem greasy.
But when said by Jiang Chenghao, it didn't feel greasy at all; instead, it felt a bit romantic.
Xu Xiaoxiao stared at his eyes, which were as bright as the stars, and felt that those books had been bought in vain.
But... why was her own heartbeat a little fast?
Jiang Chenghao in the dim light... why was he a little tempting!
She just wanted to... kiss him!
The thought that suddenly popped into Xu Xiaoxiao's mind was very dangerous.
After all, Jiang Chenghao had just almost dragged her home to do this and that.
To avoid suffering, Xu Xiaoxiao withdrew her gaze and attempted to calm herself down by focusing on the exciting content of the movie.
But just as she looked...
Hmm, why was that old policeman arrested?
Could it be that he was the final big villain?
Heavens, how much had she missed!
Xu Xiaoxiao slumped her shoulders in frustration, then said to Jiang Chenghao with annoyance, "It's all your fault, I didn't see how the big villain was caught."
As her voice fell, a man in front turned around and said concisely, "It's nothing much, the protagonist group set a trap, used a fake death to lure the big villain into an old factory, and when they wanted to perish together, the heroine cut the fuse."
With this man's explanation, Xu Xiaoxiao filled in the plot she had missed.
Xu Xiaoxiao smiled faintly and thanked him.
Afterward, she dragged Jiang Chenghao away.
Jiang Chenghao didn't understand; as they walked out of the screening room, he asked, "Isn't it not over yet?"
"And then what? Wait for the movie to end, the lights to come on, and everyone around to know that the two people who were being lovey-dovey just now are us?"
Xu Xiaoxiao thought that by lowering her voice, others wouldn't hear her conversation with Jiang Chenghao.
But the performance of that man in front proved...
Others could hear it clearly!
At this moment, Xu Xiaoxiao rested her forehead in her palm; she really felt terrible!
Jiang Chenghao touched her head and comforted her, "Everyone is here to watch a movie, who would pay attention to what we're talking about? But if they really did notice..."
"How so?"
"It means they envy our good relationship and want to learn from our experience."
What kind of logic is that!
Xu Xiaoxiao's face showed helplessness.
She even tilted her head up, about to refute Jiang Chenghao.
But it was this movement that allowed her peripheral vision to spot a few figures nearby.
The figures were silent, yet their presence was very strong.
Because of this discovery, Xu Xiaoxiao reined in her outward emotions and became well-behaved.
Jiang Chenghao sensed the change in Xu Xiaoxiao and asked, "What's wrong?"
"... It's nothing, I just hope we can catch that person soon. With things the way they are now, everyone is on edge, and it's too uncomfortable."
Xu Xiaoxiao was truly uncomfortable; she felt completely at ease with nothing.
Jiang Chenghao also noticed her unease, and after a moment of silence, he said in a solemn tone, "It will be over very soon."
Xu Xiaoxiao nodded gloomily, and then, she remembered the plan Jiang Baobao had mentioned.
Looking left and right to see that no one was around, Xu Xiaoxiao looked up and asked Jiang Chenghao in a tiny voice, "Have you seen my body double?"
"Mm."
"How much does she look like me?"
"About fifty percent. With the right styling, it's enough to deceive people."
Since the person had already been found, it meant the plan would unfold immediately.
Xu Xiaoxiao became nervous without realizing it.
It felt like a storm was coming.
Seeing Xu Xiaoxiao's brows knitted together, Jiang Chenghao patted her head and said, "You don't need to worry about these things; just obediently wait for the result."
Jiang Chenghao's gentle voice dispelled some of the nervousness in the depths of Xu Xiaoxiao's heart.
But what he said...
Made Xu Xiaoxiao show a helpless expression: "Why does it sound like I have no role to play?"
"Who says that? You are the smokescreen; whether the plan succeeds or not depends on you the most."
Xu Xiaoxiao understood that Jiang Chenghao was coaxing her.
But these words... they just sounded pleasant.
Because she felt happy inside, a smile climbed back onto Xu Xiaoxiao's cheeks.
She linked her arm with Jiang Chenghao's and said, "I'm hungry, let's go eat something!"
"Mm, as long as you're full."
"What about you?"
Jiang Chenghao leaned into Xu Xiaoxiao's ear and whispered, "I'll eat you."
The seductive voice made Xu Xiaoxiao's face turn red.
Ever since the two of them broke through the window paper, Jiang Chenghao had really been... becoming more and more improper.
Yet this side of him could only be seen by Xu Xiaoxiao.
If she told outsiders, I'm afraid no one would believe it!
And this kind of contrast...
Xu Xiaoxiao loved it!
She pursed her lips a bit shyly, looking like a bird relying on its mate.
Seeing this, Jiang Chenghao flicked her nose, then held her hand and took her to eat something delicious.
The two of them were like a golden boy and jade girl, standing together, looking exceptionally well-matched.
Only the person hiding in the shadows was like a venomous snake, staring fixedly at the backs of the two.
Sooner or later... I will catch her!
After watching the movie that day, Jiang Chenghao would ask Xu Xiaoxiao out whenever he was free.
Sometimes it was for a big meal, sometimes to stroll in the park, and sometimes they did nothing at all, just taking a walk.
