Although he had said some abominable things recently, he was also uttering sweet nothings increasingly frequently. She could hardly bear it.

“I didn’t.” Nian Junting raised his eyebrows. “So this is what is meant by ‘sweet nothings.’ I won’t need to learn, then. It seems that I am born with this talent.”

Luo Sang was afraid that he would begin engaging in lengthy self-praise again. She quickly said, “Yes, yes. You must have picked it up yourself while dating. Come, this eel and mushroom soup is not bad. Have some.”

“It’s average. It might be better if you were feeding me,” Nian Junting said with pride.

“I’m going to book the tickets.” Luo Sang was too lazy to bother with him. She looked down and opened the booking app. As she tapped away, a message suddenly came in on WeChat. Someone had transferred a sum of money to her. She tapped on the notification to open the message. Mr. Nian had sent her $520 in a virtual red packet.

Luo Sang was speechless. This was too… She could feel goosebumps rising. It was certainly not within his usual sly-tongued and unempathetic character, and she felt a growing sense of bliss within her heart. This scoundrel was not only capable of the most venomous words but also of the sweetest ones.

…

At 8:20pm, the two of them reached the movie theater. Only once they were there did Nian Junting think to ask what movie they were about to watch.

“The Ex-Files 3. Apparently, it’s really popular. Some say that it’s quite touching, too.” Luo Sang pointed towards an advertisement at the door.

“I don’t like the name.” Nian Junting frowned in dismay. “Touching… does your ex-boyfriend touch your heart? Xu Luo Sang, have you not spared a thought for my feelings? Moreover, what is so touching about a rascal like Yi Jingxi?”

“It’s just a movie. If it’s good, let’s watch it.” Luo Sang, overwhelmed with his questions, felt wronged.

“You just talked about being touched.” Nian Junting emphasized his words. “I’m warning you, now that you have me, don’t even think about feeling touched because of your ex.”

“I’m saying that this movie is decent. It has nothing to do with my ex.” Luo Sang felt immensely regretful. She should not have brought him to the theater. Who knew that he would be so petty as to kick up a fuss over a movie title?

“Nian Junting, if you do this again, I’ll never watch a movie with you again.” Luo Sang stomped her foot. “Look at everyone bringing their partners to watch the movie. No one’s acting like you.”

Feeling threatened, Nian Junting finally stopped talking.

As they walked into the theater, they heard two girls talking behind them. One of them said, “Haha, why did you think to ask me out for a movie today?”

“We’re watching the ex-files. We can’t possibly bring our current partners. What if we start to reminisce about our ex-boyfriends and begin bawling? How hurtful would that be?”

“Hey, yeah, now you mention it, I’m beginning to think about my own ex. Let’s stop talking about it. It hurts me every time I think about him.”

…

Nian Junting shot Luo Sang a cold glance.

“…”

Had she committed an unforgivable crime bringing her current partner to this movie?

When they took their seats, Luo Sang grabbed his hand and pretended to feel jealous. “You had better not think about your ex, or I’ll be angry.”

“How is that possible?” Nian Junting said plainly, “We’re not watching Wolf Warrior.”

Luo Sang was stunned. “You watched Wolf Warrior with her?” She felt that something was amiss. Wolf Warrior had not debuted very long ago, but his ex-girlfriend was a thing of years past.

“Because I was in the army while I was together with her, it would be hard for me to stop myself from reminiscing about the glorious days while I was in the army.” Nian Junting signed melancholically.

“…”
