Chapter 300: 292 Movies (6000-Word Chapter)_4

"I’ve already washed up."

The girl tilted her head, seemingly expressing doubt.

"I washed in my own room."

The girl turned around, her sleepiness gradually fading, and she looked at him face to face.

"What’s the matter?"

She quickly noticed that his mood was a bit unusual.

"It’s nothing."

Jiang Chen brushed it off with a nonchalant smile.

The girl still watched him quietly.

"It’s just that I watched a movie today—it was a bit too intense."

Jiang Chen compromised.

"Didn’t you say you were going to work out? How did it turn into a movie?"

Being able to sleep here, of course, there was no doubt it was Li Shuru. She pressed on quickly, "Who did you go with? Tell me the truth."

Jiang Chen indeed understood that she was just putting on an act.

Actually, after getting to know her, one would understand that this arts college beauty was a truly sentimental girl. Life with her would never be dull.

"Who else but Bai Ge."

"The two of you big guys went to watch a movie together?"

"What’s wrong with that? Can’t men watch movies together? You’re being sexist."

"I don’t believe it."

"If you don’t believe me, you can call him and ask him yourself."

"Will he tell me the truth? No wonder you rushed off to shower as soon as you came back."

Jiang Chen was momentarily stunned before he realized what she meant, and couldn’t help but be caught between laughter and tears.

"I’m really wronged here."

Li Shuru didn’t continue to tease him. She snuggled into his embrace and asked softly, "What movie did you watch?"

"An action blockbuster."

"Was it good?"

"Extremely gory. If you were there, you would’ve probably cried from fright."

Jiang Chen said dead seriously.

Li Shuru lifted her head from his chest.

"Don’t underestimate me. I am not that timid."

Jiang Chen gave a bitter smile without speaking.

He knew Li Shuru probably wasn’t fragile, but forget her, even Shi Qianxi would probably have been terrified by the scenes from tonight’s movie.

"Shu Rui, if one day I turned bad, would you still want to be with me?"

He stroked the girl’s soft and fragrant hair as he suddenly asked.

Li Shuru didn’t immediately respond. She lifted her head, clearly a bit puzzled. After a moment of silence, she spoke softly, "What kind of ’bad’ are you referring to?"

This question stumped Jiang Chen for a moment, and he didn’t know how to respond.

When you’re in the jianghu, you can’t help it.

He could now truly sympathize with this old saying.

He had originally thought that becoming a money-chasing dog was only about making money. But now, it seemed his thoughts were too naive.

"Did you actually go see a movie with some beauty?"

Li Shuru brought the conversation back around.

Jiang Chen was caught between laughter and tears.

"Just tell me, I won’t get angry. Was it Luo, junior?"

"..."

Jiang Chen was silent for a while before sighing, "Luo junior and I are really innocent. It’s okay if you misunderstand me, but she’s a girl. She’ll want a boyfriend in the future... "

Li Shuru didn’t care for his lengthy explanation.

"So it was someone else?"

"Let’s go to sleep."

The best way at times like these was to stop explaining, otherwise things would only get worse.

Jiang Chen turned over, lying on his back, with Li Shuru resting on his arm, creating a warm scene.

Jiang Chen, who said he wanted to sleep, lay with his eyes open, staring at the ceiling, lost in thought.

If she didn’t notice his preoccupation now, she wouldn’t be Li Shuru.

"Have you seen ’Detective Chinatown’?"

Li Shuru suddenly spoke.

"Why aren’t you asleep yet?"

Jiang Chen turned slightly to find her staring at him with bright, sparkling eyes.

"Yeah, I’ve seen it. What about it?"

"There’s a line in it that says individual lives are different, but the total amount of good and evil in the world remains unchanged. From birth, everyone is destined to play their roles, some good, some bad..."

Jiang Chen frowned slightly, "What do you mean?"

"It means that some people, even if they want to become bad, can’t manage to be all that bad."

Li Shuru yawned, "I’m sleepy."

She pulled away Jiang Chen’s arm, turned over, and lay with her back to him.

"I’m going to sleep first. Goodnight."

Jiang Chen was left in silent amazement, then without a sound, he smiled, looked back at the ceiling, and slowly closed his eyes.
