Chapter 76

Jiang Cheng, staying in the Moon Realm, walked into the cinema, pulled his hand out from being held by the sister, and then took hold of the soft hand of the Sharp Realm.

Su Manyao was stunned for a moment, but she didn't pull her hand back, letting Jiang Cheng hold it, only looking at him with a strange gaze.

Jiang Cheng seemed not to notice Yujie's gaze, holding his hand as he walked in.

If you said they weren't a couple at this moment, nobody would believe it! The midnight showing had few people.

In the lobby, a resting area with plastic chairs held three couples whispering; when their gaze fell on Su Manyao in a snow-white casual long dress and the handsome Jiang Cheng, they couldn't look away.

Also, a guy buying popcorn and the cinema front desk staff had their mouths slightly open, staring at the two.

Are you sure they're not celebrities?

Everyone had this thought pop into their minds, constantly searching their memory for information about which celebrity these two were!

If they could name them, they'd have rushed over for a photo! After searching, they finally confirmed they'd never seen them before!

"I remember now, you're the handsome guy who saved someone in the news?"

A young lady nearby jumped up, looking at Jiang Cheng and said.

Her voice wasn't loud, yet it echoed in the cinema's spacious lobby.

"Sorry, you've mistaken me for someone else." Jiang Cheng said politely.

Beside him, Su Manyao blinked her eyes, glanced at Jiang Cheng's profile, and the corner of her mouth held an enigmatic smile.

"You've become a celebrity now."

"Compared to Yujie's fame at Modu Daxue, it's like the light of a grain of rice trying to rival the bright moon."

"Oily talk, itchy skin!"

Su Manyao reached out and pinched Jiang Cheng's waist! Jiang Cheng gritted his face, enduring it.

Su Manyao, dissatisfied, increased the pressure; even she felt it hurt, but Jiang Cheng still showed no reaction, so he whined and loosened his grip, then rubbed the same spot again.

"Wait here for me, I'll go get the tickets." Jiang Cheng said to you in the resting area.

Yujie looked left and right, then sat down on the plastic chair.

Jiang Cheng held the QR code and turned to go get the tickets.

If the previous visit to the private cinema counts as watching a movie, then the atmosphere during their first movie outing was nothing but awkward.

But now, on their second visit to the cinema, things are much more relaxed and harmonious.

Unbeknownst to them, Jiang Cheng and Yujie seem to have developed some mutual understanding.

The most obvious sign is that, during their first visit to the private cinema, if Jiang Cheng dared to speak so slickly, he'd be called a lecher, a scumbag! Now it's different.

Now that makes him a bad guy, a jerk.

They're both negative words, but their meanings are completely different.

It's like the difference between dying in the streets and being a dead ghost.

Su Manyao gazed at the parents' backs, her lips rosy; she had never dated before, but now she had, and she wanted more!

"Sister, is that your boyfriend?"

Beside them, another couple waiting for the show, the girl about eighteen to twenty, leaned forward and tentatively asked Su Manyao.

Su Manyao's eyes rolled a bit, she nodded with a nasal tone: "Mm."

"You two are a perfect match; I almost thought you were a movie couple on screen!"

"Thank you." Su Manyao said politely.

The speaking young lady nodded and said no more, feeling that this beautiful sister seemed a bit aloof.

But she didn't realize that the knot before her eyes was actually just a naturally cold face; it was as if the sister's heart wasn't thinking much, but rather his question struck her heart, and she was responding passionately.

Seeing the girl suddenly fall silent, Su Manyao also withdrew her gaze.

"You spoke well, could you say a bit more?"

That would seem very rude. "Boss!"

Suddenly a voice interrupted Su Manyao's thoughts; she looked up.

Then her brows furrowed.

However, the displeasure in her eyes flickered and vanished; she quickly regained composure and politely said to the man, "Hello."

The person approaching was Lin Muyang.

He is a top composer in the Entertainment Circle and has collaborated with Su Manyao's Lightman Entertainment.

This time he came to Modu, to give a lecture at the Music Department of Modu Daxue, and also had contact with Su Manyao.

He had heard before that the boss of Lightman Entertainment was very beautiful.

But he'd seen many beautiful women, so he didn't think much of it.

But this time, upon first seeing Su Manyao, he felt that all the beautiful women he'd previously considered attractive were mere rouge and powder compared to her! "Boss, are you also here to watch a movie?" Lin Muyang walked over to Su Manyao's side and sat down directly.

Su Manyao's expression was cold; she didn't answer Lin Muyang's question, but asked, "Mr. Lin, may I ask what business you have?"

Lin Muyang felt awkward, but he quickly recovered.

He had long heard that the boss of Lightman Entertainment was naturally aloof.

Lin Muyang smiled: "Nothing much; I rarely come to Modu, so I'm just meeting up with friends."

Su Manyao said lightly: "If there's anything, discuss it at the company."

She didn't engage with any of Lin Muyang's topics, but she thought his so-called friend gathering was basically a deceitful ghost.

Because of Jiang Cheng's presence, she recently looked up quite a bit about entertainment venues.

Places like cinemas are mostly for couples, or parents with kids, or groups of female friends, or young cliques.

Ambitious big men would definitely not come to a place like the cinema to hang out with their peers!

However, Su Manyao had no interest in Lin Muyang's question.

Su Manyao just assumed her personality was like that, and continued with an eager face: "Boss, are you also here with friends?"

Su Manyao didn't answer his question, merely lifting her gaze forward.

Because Jiang Cheng had come back with the tickets.

But the motion of Su Manyao lifting her head accentuated the perfect curve from her chin to her collarbone, her snow‑white neck making one want to leave a kiss mark.

Lin Muyang stared, dumbfounded, for a moment.

Even though he had seen countless beauties, he couldn't help swallowing a mouthful of saliva, almost losing his composure! "Beautiful, too beautiful! Who are you? Sitting so close to my girlfriend!"

Suddenly a voice interrupted him.

He turned his head; a boy walked over, stood beside him, and reached out to take Su Manyao's hand.

Then he pulled Su Manyao away.

"What the hell? Who is this?" "Boss Su." Lin Muyang blurted out instinctively.

Su Manyao didn't look back, letting Jiang Cheng hold her hand.

Jiang Cheng turned and said, "What's with all this 'boss' talk? Haven't you seen it's after work? Do you have any public decency? Won't you let people have a little private time? You disgusting capitalist, even after work you keep calling 'boss this, boss that'!"

He said this while pulling Su Manyao away.

Lin Muyang was dazed.

How dare he call me a disgusting capitalist? If we're talking capitalists, Su Manyao is the real one, right?!

I'm just a lyricist, damn it!
