Chapter 255 A Chance Encounter in the Cinema
Chapter 255 A Chance Encounter in the Cinema
Anqi Town, in front of the cinema.
"Have you been waiting for a long time?" Shen Anan smiled a little embarrassedly.
Just before coming, she went to the post office and mailed the manuscript and the reply letters to Zhuang Hui and Fu Caiying.
Because Sister Zhou pulled her aside and talked to her for a few words, it delayed them for a while.
"It's okay, I just arrived too!"
"The movie hasn't started yet, there's still time."
Xiao Kaixuan looked at the person in front of him and could hardly suppress his excitement.
In fact, he didn't tell the truth because he was going to watch a movie with Shen Anan today.
He couldn't sleep before dawn in the morning, so after breakfast, he started to get ready.
Use a ceramic pot to fill with hot water and iron out every wrinkle on the shirt. Even the shoes on the feet have been washed before.
The first time they were alone together, he had to be in the best condition.
Although the appointment was at 2 p.m., he actually arrived after lunch. The ground in front of the cinema entrance was almost dented by his steps.
The feeling of being about to meet the person you want to meet, although anxious, is also sweet.
"By the way, I didn't know what you wanted to eat, so I just bought something at the supply and marketing cooperative to eat while we watched the movie."
"If you want to eat anything, just tell me and I'll buy it in advance next time!"
Xiao Kaixuan handed the bag in his hand to Shen Anan. Shen Anan took it and saw that there was a small bag of melon seeds, a bag of glutinous rice noodles, and a handful of peanut candy inside.
In this day and age, being able to eat these snacks while watching a movie is considered a luxury.
Shen Anan smiled and said, "Brother Xiao, how did you know that I like to eat snacks while watching movies?"
"I also brought a lot of delicious food, let's eat while we watch!"
Shen Anan said, patting the backpack around her waist.
Previously, when attending a furniture exhibition, Cheng Fang gave her some dried beef jerky to thank her.
These days, cows are the treasure of every brigade, and it is basically impossible to eat beef.
That is, in Meng Province, because it is a grazing area, and coupled with the local people's eating habits, they can eat beef jerky.
Cheng Fang didn't bring much beef jerky at that time, and Shen Anan brought a small half this time.
The other members of the Shen family each took a few pieces and tasted them.
Shen Anan thought that she could write to Cheng Fang later and ask her to buy some and send it over.
"Sister An An, the movie is about to start, let's go in!"
"Okay!" Shen Anan then realized that they were basically the only two people left at the entrance of the cinema.
Well, ever since she was reborn into this era, she seems to be developing into a foodie.
Movie theaters in this era were still rather simple, with a white cloth hanging at the front and rows of long benches underneath.
Because Shen Anan and the others came in late, they only had seats at the back.
The movie chosen by Xiao Kaixuan was the recently popular "Red Lantern", which was also a classic work that was later rated as one of the eight model operas.
Shen Anan had seen it in her previous life, but watching it again in this era gave her a different feeling.
Every time the protagonist in the movie fights bravely against the enemy, he can draw cheers from the people around him who share his feelings.
Shen Anan's attention was not on the movie, because she seemed to hear a familiar voice in the discussion among the people around her.
Shen Anan looked around with the help of the light from the curtain.
Sure enough, she found that familiar voice two rows in front of her on her left.
Surprisingly, it’s Xi Xiaoling!
The most important thing is that there was a young man sitting next to Xi Xiaoling. The two of them talked to each other from time to time, and it was obvious that they came together.
What could be the relationship between this man and this woman who came to see a movie?
Shen Anan suddenly felt a little worried about her fifth brother. She always thought that Xi Xiaoling and Shen Yuanhao were a good match.
It's just that Shen Yuanhao always feels inferior and unworthy of others, and it is Xi Xiaoling who takes the initiative.
Could it be that Xi Xiaoling is going to give up on her fifth brother, that blockhead?
Is the fifth sister-in-law she recognized going to be gone?
Because she was preoccupied, Shen Anan barely paid attention to the second half of the movie.
I couldn't help but look in Xi Xiaoling's direction from time to time.
Even Xiao Kaixuan noticed something was wrong, but he didn't think much about it. He thought Shen Anan was not interested in the movie he chose, and he couldn't help feeling annoyed.
After waiting for a long time for the movie to end, Shen Anan did not come forward to say hello.
She just figured it out. After all, it is Xi Xiaoling's freedom to like whoever she wants.
She should go back and ask Shen Yuanhao first. Before she knows the situation clearly, it is better not to get involved.
If Xi Xiaoling really marries someone else in the end, it can only be said that the two of them are not destined to be together.
However, just as I reached the door of the cinema, I heard a tentative shout from behind me.
"An'an?"
Shen Anan turned around and it was indeed Xi Xiaoling.
"Sister Xiaoling, what a coincidence!" Now Shen Anan could see clearly the person next to Xi Xiaoling. He was a very capable man with a buzz cut and a very handsome appearance.
"Kaixuan, why are you here?" The man saw Xiao Kaixuan, smiled and walked over.
It seems that the two people should know each other.
After Xiao Kaixuan's introduction, Shen Anan also knew the man's identity.
Meng Zhijie is Xiao Kaixuan's colleague, and they are both police officers in the town police station.
"Kaixuan, who is this?" Meng Zhijie winked at Xiao Kaixuan, a gossipy look on his face.
"Hey, this is Sister An An, Shen Yuanjia's sister." Xiao Kaixuan cleared his throat, his face a little hot. When introducing her, he didn't dare to look into Shen An An's eyes.
Instead, Shen Anan smiled gracefully.
Meng Zhijie was not very satisfied with Xiao Kaixuan's introduction, so he came over and put his arm around him.
"You and An An are..."
"Well, don't talk nonsense, we are just friends!" Xiao Kaixuan said, and secretly glanced at Shen Anan.
"Oh, so you're a friend!" Meng Zhijie grinned, his voice seemed to be taking eighteen turns.
Anyone could hear the sarcasm in his voice.
Xiao Kaixuan refused to give in, "Then what's going on between you and Sister Xiaoling?"
Because Xi Jianzhong and his father were old colleagues and he had taken good care of the mother and son over the years, he was no stranger to Xi Xiaoling.
I didn't expect that Xi Jianzhong actually took a fancy to this kid Meng Zhijie.
Xiao Kaixuan looked at Meng Zhijie with a scrutinizing look in his eyes. Xiaoling was half his sister, so he had to keep a close eye on her!
"Well, Xiaoling and I are also friends." Meng Zhijie didn't take his eyes off Xi Xiaoling when he spoke.
Shen Anan also realized at this moment that Meng Zhijie and Shen Yuanhao had completely different personalities.
However, although Meng Zhijie has a somewhat eccentric personality, he was favored by Xi Jianzhong, so his character should not be a problem.
Maybe, this is really a good destination for Xi Xiaoling.
