A force pulled him up from the ground forcibly, Chu Chuan casually bent his fingers and tapped the script on the table, “Read it quickly, don’t drag it anymore.”
Jiang Yi looked around with a guilty conscience, and the people scattered in every corner of the club room did not seem to pay too much attention to him. He put his mind at ease, unaware that when he was focusing on the script’s dialogue, the scorching eyes from all directions fell back onto him again.
The script reading went uninterrupted to the ending scene, by which Romeo has committed suicide by poisoning himself, and only Juliet’s lines were left.
“…What is this? Poison? You drank it all by yourself, not even leaving a single drop for me?”
When Chu Chuan read this, he noticed that Jiang Yi has been winking at him. Chu Chuan raised his head in surprise, and his face went black when he recognized the mouth shape that the other party had repeatedly made towards him.
Jiang Yi relied on the fact that he was standing in the blind spot of most people’s perspective, so he blinked his right eye, and silently opened his mouth to utter, “Kiss me.”
After reading the last sentence blankly, Chu Chuan threw the script on the table, turned around, and sat down on the chair behind the table.
Jiang Yi followed him step by step, sat down beside him, and secretly peeked at his pursed lips and said, “… Are you angry?”
Jiang Yi, “The place where you paused a while ago, had a kiss scene…”
Chu Chuan took the box of pink mints from his pocket and threw it in front of him, “Return it to you.”
Jiang Yi was stunned for a second, “Didn’t you accept it a while ago?”
Chu Chuan, “The sentence I said before was incomplete, entirely it was ‘Thank you for the candy, I’m returning it back to you’.”
Jiang Yi, “…”
He raised his eyebrows suspiciously, “If I have agreed to swap roles with you just now, would you have taken my candy?”
Jiang Yi, “Then you are trying to quit smoking recently, right?”
Chu Chuan narrowed his eyes vigilantly, “Where did you find out that I was quitting smoking.”
Jiang Yi opened his eyes and said nonsense, “When I saw you a few days ago, I could smell the smoke on your body, but the smell has disappeared recently.”
Chu Chuan dismissed him blankly, “I have quit smoking since a month ago.”
Jiang Yi, “…”
Although I vaguely remembered that Chu Chuan quit smoking in his sophomore year. But how would I remember the specific time, Jiang Yi muttered in his heart, and asked again without getting discouraged, “Then you like this candy, right?”
“Where did you hear I love to eat this kind of mint candy?” Chu Chuan snorted and looked at him speechlessly with his arms folded.
Jiang Yi raised the corners of his lips, his entire face became vivid and shining, and his deliberately prolonged tone was bright and nostalgic, “Because-the way you look at it is the same as the way I look at you.”
“If that’s not love, what would it be?”
Chu Chuan looked slightly startled, and after a long silence, he suddenly sneered, “Nonsense.”
Jiang Yi, “…”
“…Okay, okay, I’m talking nonsense.”
While muttering to himself, he lay down on the desk like admitting defeat and sighed softly.
