Chapter 96

Half an hour later, Lin Wan Bai finally exited the Guanyin Hall.

He did not even need to look around to find Huo Chang Yuan's figure standing under the old locust tree in the middle of the courtyard. Even in this kind of important Buddhist land, he was still able to stand alone, unable to shift his gaze away with a single glance.

It was as though his presence would cause others to subconsciously approach him.

Lin Wan Bai slowly walked over and saw his impatience. "That was so long!"

"Uh, I was kneeling for such a long time before finally being sincere!" Lin Wan Bai rubbed the kneecap.

The corner of Huo Chang Yuan's mouth twitched, as if he wanted to call her stupid, but in the end, he endured it.

The speed down the mountain was relatively faster, and when he arrived at the front of the white Land Rover, Lin Wan Bai paused for a bit and took out the thing in his pocket.

"Huo Chang Yuan, this is for you …"

After Huo Chang Yuan heard this, he reached out to take it, "Hmm?"

It was a string of buddhist beads made of saffron, with a small image of Guan Yin at the bottom.

"Don't every child have a peace talisman, your mother …" Lin Wan Bai paused for a moment, then continued, "This is the safety talisman I requested, I can hang it on the reverse mirror to bless your safety!"

No wonder after seeing her kneel in the Guanyin Hall for so long, she had thought she was begging for something.

So it was for him to obtain the peace talisman …

Was this considered the overflowing of a woman's natural maternal love?

"What the heck is this nonsense!" Huo Chang Yuan frowned.

Lin Wan Bai said embarrassedly, "If you don't want it, then forget it."

The car door opened, and Lin Wan Bai also quietly sat down. When she tied the belt around her body, she saw that he had tied the buddhist beads onto the reverse mirror, and then touched it to the small figure that had fallen down, and gently shook it.

She turned her head away and secretly raised the corner of her mouth.

The journey back would take more than forty minutes. The sunlight after three o'clock was not so glaring but it was very warm. Lin Wan Bai was about to fall asleep.

When the car came to a stop, she looked around blankly. It was an underground parking lot.

Lin Wan Bai followed Huo Chang Yuan up from Floor B2. The elevator door opened, and they arrived at a movie theater. A lot of people were lining up in front of the self-service ticket vending machine.

"Uh, us?" she asked, puzzled.

Huo Chang Yuan did not reply her, he only said, "Wait here, I will go buy a ticket."

Then, Lin Wan Bai watched him walk towards the ticket counter, taking out his money purse while pointing at the screen on top of it. When he came back, he had two more tickets, as well as a big bucket of popcorn and two cola.

She still couldn't think straight, so she asked with uncertainty, "We …" Are you going to watch a movie? "

"Yes." Huo Chang Yuan replied indifferently.

Watching a movie? She and Huo Chang Yuan?

Lin Wan Bai swallowed his saliva, then looked at the red tickets.

The ticket matched the name of the movie on the poster. "Love movies?"

Huo Chang Yuan glanced at her with his deep black eyes, and said slowly, "Don't all of you women like to watch skimpy love movies?"

"Ugh." Lin Wan Bai pulled down his long hair and expressed hesitantly, "Actually, I love watching American action movies more …"

"Don't you see!" Huo Chang Yuan frowned.

"Look …" She was immediately terrified.

After a short wait, the broadcast reminded the venue that the tickets could be checked in.

Lin Wan Bai followed behind Huo Chang Yuan like a puppy, and realised that most of the people in the group were lovers, there were very few who were of the same sex, they all huddled together and laughed.

Not long after he took his seat, the lights dimmed and the big screen lit up with subtitles.

When the male and female protagonists acted out intimate scenes, many of the couples were already snuggled together, either the male or female in their embrace, or the female leaning on the male's shoulder.

Lin Wan Bai couldn't help but lick the corner of his mouth, as he felt a little uncomfortable.

She sneakily glanced at Huo Chang Yuan who was at the side. The light from the big screen caused his face to flicker, but he could not hide the outline of the face. His deep eyes were staring straight ahead, as though he was focusing on the movie.

Lin Wan Bai withdrew his gaze once again.

The armrest of the middle seat was suddenly lifted, and her hands were wrapped around the thick palm.

"Huh?" She looked over in surprise.

Huo Chang Yuan cast a sidelong glance, the corner of his lips curled up lazily. "You're looking at me, not because you want me to hold your hand?"

"I'm not …" Lin Wan Bai was embarrassed and embarrassed.

She was so red that she wanted to shake off his hand, but she was held back by his ten fingers.

"Focus on it!"

The love movie that took place a hundred and ten minutes or so ended with a song. When it ended, the lights were once again lit up, and many couples walked towards the exit one after another. Lin Wan Bai and Huo Chang Yuan were also mixed in.

She could not help but lower her head, and even after she got up and left, Huo Chang Yuan still had not let go of her hand.

Coming out from the tunnel where the audience was gathered, Huo Chang Yuan asked her, "Are you hungry?"

"A bit …" Lin Wan Bai replied honestly.

"We'll go back after we eat outside."

"Oh."

Huo Chang Yuan looked at the shop's signboard as he rolled down the stairs, and then led her down one floor.

Lin Wan Bai was holding one of his hands, while the other hand was in his pocket, with the ticket stubs from watching a movie inside.

She looked up, her eyes fixed on the outline of his profile.

Accompany her to the temple, take her to the movies and eat...

Could it be … A date?

Lin Wan Bai's heart tensed up, and then he started to beat even faster.

By the time the Land Rover pulled into the upscale district, the night had already fallen.

Huo Chang Yuan went into the bathroom first. Lin Wan Bai was still staring at the ticket in a daze as her phone rang. She was shocked.

The number displayed on the screen was an unfamiliar number. She frowned as she placed it beside her ear. On the other end of the line was a confident female voice. "Xiaobai, I, Hu HanSan, am back!"

"Fishy?" Lin Wan Bai was pleasantly surprised.

"En!" I just got off the plane, and I'm sitting with my legs swollen! "

"Where are you? I'll pick you up! "

Sang Xiao Yu, who was on the other side of the road, laughed as usual, "No need, send me the address of your house, I will get off the airport bus immediately and call a taxi!"

"Alright!" Lin Wan Bai immediately replied.

After hanging up the phone, he edited the address into a message and sent it over. When he looked back, he was shocked.

Huo Chang Yuan was actually silently standing behind her. With narrowed, deep eyes, he asked in a dangerous tone, "Who are you talking to? It's Yan Feng again? "

When he got out of the shower, he saw her on the phone. She had a smile at the corner of her eyes.

"No!"

Lin Wan Bai shook his head and explained, "I'm a good friend, a roommate in university."

"Female?" Huo Chang Yuan asked.

After confirming that the other party was gender, Huo Chang Yuan's face did not look so ugly, he tied a knot on his waist with the bathrobe.

Lin Wan Bai looked at the two firm pectoral muscles in her line of sight and thought of the address she just sent over. She suddenly became troubled, bit her lips, and carefully asked, "Um, can I take a leave of absence tonight?"
