Chapter 716: He did this with another woman in the past.

“Hello.”

“Hello, Ziming. I’m back. Let’s meet at the usual place today! I haven’t seen you in so long. I miss you so much!”

The familiar voice made him lower his eyelids a little. After a short pause, he answered lightly, “I’m not free.”

“Not free? Are you really not free or do you just not want to meet me?”

The sweetness in the caller’s voice dimmed as it carried a tinge of unhappiness.

“… I’m really not free.” He peeked at the woman beside him, wearing headphones and paying attention to the movie, and said this on the phone.

“Isn’t today the start of the year? Why aren’t you free?” The woman on the other end was not about to drop this matter.

“Hey, Ziming. Don’t you think that you are a little rude on me? For whose sake was I sent alone overseas in the first place?

“Now that I’m finally back, I don’t even have a house to stay! I called you the moment I landed, yet you are actually telling me that you’re not free!

“Ziming, am I, Qiao Jingyun, really a normal person to you?!”

The grumbling coming from the phone made him frown deeply.

“Jingyun…” He sighed softly and then revealed a helpless expression.

It was clear that the person calling was not a normal person, or else he would not reveal such an expression.

“Don’t call me. I’m angry now. Hmph!”

The woman on the other end pouted and pretended to be angry as she grumbled like a kid.

“I’m really not free today.” He took a deep breath, still frowning. He seemed to be at a loss on how to handle the woman on the other end.

“I don’t care; I must see you today no matter how busy you are!” she unreasonably demanded.

“Anyway, I’ll go to our usual place to wait for you now. If you don’t appear, I will keep waiting until you do!”

She hung up quickly after this, not waiting for his reply.

He looked at his phone with lowered lids. His expression was dark and hard to decipher.

At this moment, the woman beside him was at the part where the main leads in a relationship were about to break up.

Pei Ge, who was a highly emotional person, could not help but sob along with the movie’s touching scenes.

The sobbing attracted his attention.

“What’s wrong? Why are you crying?”

He picked up some tissue from the coffee table and gently wiped her tears away.

She removed her headphones to hear him speak.

“Nothing. I cry easily, so I’m affected by such scenes.” She received the tissue from him, blew her nose, and then smiled.

He shook his head in amusement as he watched her laugh and cry at the same time.

“It’s just a movie.”

“It is just a movie, but I still feel sad when I see such scenes. They clearly like each other so much, but the scriptwriter just has to torture them like that.” She grumbled about this after wiping her tears clean.

“That scriptwriter is so bad for creating so much misunderstanding between the two to hurt them…”

He could not help but raise a brow at her complaints, regretting a little for choosing this movie.

“Don’t watch it if you’re not happy.”

He brought her to watch a movie and make her happy.

Since the movie was making her sad, he would rather not have her watch it.

“Who says I’m unhappy? I just cry easily! Any-Anyway, just wait a little more; they will surely patch things up! Aiya, I wanna continue watching. Don’t bother me!”

She glared at him before putting on her headphones to keep watching the movie.

She did not even know that he had received a call.

He looked at her gentle smile while she watched the movie raptly.

Slowly, his thoughts drifted away while gazing at the fair-skinned lady next to him.

He recalled doing this with another woman in the past. They went on a date to the cinemas like normal people did.

At that time, he also used…

“Ziming? Ziming?” Pei Ge tugged at him. When she came to herself and saw him staring her dazedly, she asked curiously, “What are you thinking about?”

Having recovered, he noticed her curiosity but shook his head lightly. “Nothing important. Has the movie ended?”

“Yes, it has!” She nodded and smiled, oblivious to him blanking out while gazing at her.

This annoying fellow probably dislikes watching movies in the first place, especially this type of cliché, romantic-comedy movies.

“What’s next? What are we doing next after this?”

She excitedly looked at him. As she was slightly affected by the movie, she became more expectant of today’s date.

“Where do you wanna go?” He held her hand as he softly inquired.

“Today is our first date, so you must decide everything!” She blinked at him with a sly look.

He could not help but pause at this.

Another woman had told him the same thing in the past…

“Let’s go.”

He got up off the sofa and walked out with her, their hands clasped.

“Where are we going? Where are we going?” She held his hand tightly and trailed after him curiously.

“Let’s go buy some things. You must make yourself look more beautiful before we go meet my parents,” he casually replied.

“Ah! If you didn’t mention it, I’d really forget about that!”

She instantly became more active and excited at this.

When they reached the shopping area on the third level, she did not continue following him but ‘took the reigns’ and pulled him along to shop.

What the two did not know was that their actions had been captured by someone and sent to a certain woman’s phone.

“Ziming…”
