Chapter 78: Yujie, is this hinting at me?

~7 min read 1,209 words

The sound of the movie inside the cinema turned into romantic light music.

Everyone watching the movie noticed something was off; although the theater had only about ten people, a buzz of discussion still arose.

Jiang Cheng also lifted his head to look at the screen; the image on the screen remained unchanged, but the sound was wrong.

Su Manyao pulled her feet back and slipped them into her slippers; she and Jiang Cheng exchanged a glance, both seeing doubt in each other's eyes.

Next, they saw a figure carrying something white run up the side stairs of the theater.

After running up, the person stood in the middle of the stairs, suddenly stopping as if hesitating.

Then he walked toward Jiang Cheng and Su Manyao.

Getting closer, Jiang Cheng could see the person wearing a hat and holding a large bouquet of roses; the roses were wrapped in white decorative gauze, and the dark red roses in the theater's dim lighting were not very conspicuous.

After walking over, the person shoved the bouquet directly into the parent's hands.

Jiang Cheng bewilderedly accepted the large bouquet; seeing the person say nothing and run off.

"I didn't buy flowers?" Jiang Cheng watched the person run off, then turned to look at Su Manyao, his face full of bewilderment.

What new trick is this Yujie playing?

Could it be because they've been together from the start to now without ever clarifying their relationship, so Yujie arranged this, hoping to use a sense of ceremony to make their lover status clear?

That must be it.

Having figured this out, Jiang Cheng's face showed a confident smile; Yujie's tricks are many, but luckily I'm quick-witted.

He stood up holding the bouquet.

In the theater, a shout suddenly came from the handful of spectators, who instantly turned into a melon-eating crowd.

Su Manyao personally witnessed Jiang Chen receiving the bouquet sent by someone else, then turned to look at him; seeing Jiang Cheng's eyes flash with confidence, her whole demeanor instantly became spirited.

Then he saw Jiang Cheng stand up.

Yujie was startled; what was he about to do? Although she usually seemed forceful, and he himself was indeed forceful, that was only in the course of work.

She really doesn't know how to date; this is her first time, so her occasional dominance in their interactions is just an act!

At this moment, seeing Jiang Cheng holding a large bouquet of roses, Yujie panicked.

She trembled as she stood up, her expression somewhat dazed.

Swish! At that moment, a blinding beam of light suddenly flared in the upper-left corner of the theater's big screen.

The light formed a cylindrical beam that shone directly on Jiang Cheng and Su Manyao, surrounding them in a round spotlight.

Su Manyao's little heart went thump-thump.

The aloof Yujie felt her legs go weak at the moment, wanting to hold onto a chair.

As the light washed over the two, the romantic light music's rhythm gradually became drawn-out and deep.

Jiang Cheng knelt on one knee and extended the roses in his hand toward Su Manyao.

"Yumanyao, from the moment I met you, my world seemed to be lit by a warm light. Your smile like a spring breeze caressing my face, letting me become intoxicated. Your kindness, intelligence, and unique charm constantly attract me. I know I have hopelessly fallen in love with you; are you willing to let me stay by your side and walk through every day of the future together?"

"Manyao, be my girlfriend."

He almost made Su Manyao spit earth.

But this feeling is really overwhelming, my head is dizzy.

Su Manyao's hand unconsciously gripped the nearby seat; her other hand covered her own cherry-like little mouth.

For a moment she didn't know what to do.

She wasn't unfamiliar with such a scene; she could no longer remember how many times, back in college, people had confessed to her like this at the places he walked by on the field.

Then what she had to do back then was also simple: just ignore it and walk past. But now... "Together! Together!"

"Agree to be with him!"

"This is too beautiful, I'm jealous; don't agree to him, men aren't good stuff!"

"That young guy is also so handsome, I envy!"

The melon-eating crowd then played their role, starting to stir up a commotion.

After a brief hesitation, the aloof Yujie came to her senses.

At this moment, the panic faded from her face, and she returned to that icy-cold demeanor.

The melon-eating crowd in the theater seemed to sense that the atmosphere was a little off.

Too icy, too cold.

This girl's aura is really too icy; no matter how you look, she seems unapproachable, and those guys even think that letting them go say hello to a woman like Su Manyao, even if they mustered all their courage, they might not dare to act.

The people causing the commotion gradually quieted down, their eyes all fixed on Su Manyao.

"I guess she's going to reject him?"

"No chance, just look at this girl's expression and you know there's no hope!"

"He seems to really dislike that guy; I can't see a shred of feeling in his eyes!"

"Feels like another story of an aloof goddess and a simp."

Everyone thought this, whispering to their companions.

But just then.

They saw the aloof woman slightly bend down, taking the large bouquet of roses from the man's hands.

Then she extended a fair hand to pull the man's arm.

Then her thin, lovely lips slightly opened and uttered a single word: "Yes."

Such a simple word, spoken from the mouth of that aloof goddess, sounded like heavenly music.

She actually agreed?! They saw the cool woman's refined face break into a faint smile.

The smile was faint yet warm.

Just that faint smile already surpassed any moving confession expression they had seen in online videos.

A hint of joy shown by an aloof woman surpasses the loud weeping of pretentious people! Jiang Cheng was led to stand up by Su Manyao.

He stood in the light and shadow, seriously scrutinizing Su Manyao's face.

The aloof Yujie stood under the spotlight, truly making one feel she is not of this world.

Jiang Cheng's heart also settled down.

This time it's finally settled; from this moment on, they are already a couple with a sense of ceremony confirming their relationship! Is this really my girlfriend? Jiang Cheng looked at Su Manyao, feeling somewhat unreal.

She is not an ignorant, naive girl; she possesses maturity and intellect; she is also a professor at Modu Daxue; she is the goddess adored by countless people; she is strong and aloof, caring about face, but now she is my girlfriend?

Mm, she is my girlfriend.

Su Manyao felt a bit uneasy under Jiang Cheng's gaze, holding that big bouquet of roses, she slightly turned aside, avoiding his gaze and said: "What else do you want to do?"

What to do? What else should I do? This question left Jiang Cheng stumped.

Is Yujie hinting at me? Damn, how did I not think of that! Kiss her! Jiang Cheng understood Yujie's hint, licked his lips.

Then I shall offend! (End of chapter)
