Chapter 739 ‘Date’
[This may be my biggest regret in my life, at least in my current mental state. 】
In front of her, she was holding a large bucket of cake. She was very excited because she found a strawberry that looked like an Easter egg in the deep area, and she smiled proudly to herself.
[It wasn’t until I squeezed out those words from between my teeth that my heart felt like it was being clenched by something, that I realized that all the worries, all the worries, all the expectations, and all the contradictions I had before were actually just one after another. joke. 】
The girl named Yu Chen was operating the claw machine with a tight face, her eyes were staring at the frog doll in the cupboard without blinking, and there was even a layer of fine beads of sweat on her forehead. In the end, he still lowered his shoulders in front of that abominable machine, turned around and pouted regretfully at himself.
[Because I am not qualified to worry, let alone expect anything. At least for me, there is always only one answer to that question. The funny thing is that I have always been thinking about another option that is so illusory that it is almost absurd. Go for it. 】
She lowered her head and sniffed the popcorn in her arms, then trotted over to meet her, holding the bucket of puffed food in front of her nose like a treasure, and looked at herself with a smile. The eyes that can't look away are clear and calm, as if they are saying
[I know very well what I missed, and I know even more clearly that the 'cause' that created all of this is not others, but the undisputed 'myself', that is, the person named 'Mo Tan' who is standing here at this moment. 'The existence itself is a man with a slightly complicated composition. 】
With a huge semi-holographic screen, perfect 360-degree sound effects, and just the right amount of air conditioning, the movie is more creepy than imagined, at least in theory, but thankfully Now, even though I possess more than 70% of the cowardice factor of 'Mo Tan', I still haven't been affected in the slightest by the crude and crude supernatural events in front of me.
【I am attracted on my own initiative, I admire on my own initiative, I approach on my own initiative, I am jealous on my own initiative, I am stupid on my own initiative, I make a choice that she will understand no matter what, carefully. Thinking about it, I am really an extremely bad person. 】
The calm self, and the girl in the seat next to her who only dared to look at the screen through her fingers. This picture that she wanted to see no matter what before, has been labeled with irony.
[Thinking about it carefully, I am really hopelessly selfish now. Really, I should have understood it a long time ago. In fact, I have understood it a long time ago. 'I' can obviously do very good things. I can't do it no matter what, I just muddle through Enjoying that laziness, never willing to face the reality.]
Pretending to move his eyes inadvertently, he wanted to 'accidentally' touch the slightly trembling little hand, but he was set by himself. The shackles bound the body, making it impossible to move.
[Ah, I know, of course I know. After all, I never intended to deceive anyone about this kind of thing from the beginning. It’s not because my so-called acting skills are not up to par, I just selfishly think Let you. Want others to want me.]
She let out a short exclamation, covered her mouth tightly with her left hand, raised and lowered her right hand subconsciously, and her fingertips touched her own wrist and left after a pause of one point seven seconds.
[Yes, 'I' like her, it's that simple. If the feeling of 'like' is not a nonsense, then 'I' naturally like her without a doubt. 】
The residual warmth on the wrist is just an illusion, a poor disguise simulated by the brain. I know this very well as I have a relatively rich reserve of knowledge, but even if it is just an illusion, deep in my consciousness I hope that this illusion can Exist for as long as possible, huh, the highest state of self-deception is probably no higher than this.
【I deeply regret this, and I am also deeply grateful for this. 】
I couldn't stop myself from looking at you, so I used a sarcastic chuckle to cover up my emotions, because I didn't want you to discover my worthless side, even though it was just self-deception.
【I am sorry because that person is you; I am very happy because that person is you. 】
You are deeply dissatisfied that there is no post-credits Easter egg after the subtitles, and I am subconsciously dissatisfied with your dissatisfaction.
【However, because I am an extremely selfish bad person, I can only regret, but not regret, whether it is my liking for you in the past, my liking for you now, or my liking for you in the future. I won't regret your love, because this feeling itself is not a mistake. 】
You drank all the milk tea and left half of the popcorn.
【‘I’ am the ‘mistake’. 】
I drank all the Coke and half of the popcorn was left.
[Perhaps the 'mistake' can never be corrected, but the 'regret' should not continue, at least not in the form of two people. 】
The face reflected in your eyes still failed to conceal the loneliness.
[It doesn’t matter, after all, ‘I’ am selfish, so no matter what, whether it is a ‘mistake’ or a ‘regret’, I will never let myself ‘regret’. 】
“Thank you, Mo Tan~”
She said to me with a smile.
[Haha, although Mo Tan didn't become weird just now, there is still something wrong. 】
Suddenly much quieter, he stood not far away and smiled and waved to me. Although he seemed to be looking at the strawberries on the plastic fork, even I, who was often criticized for being slow, could still see it. It seems that he is restless, hmm, that guy is the type who can't hide his worries.
【I wanted to apologize to him, and wanted to say, 'I'm sorry, I didn't take your feelings into consideration', but I always felt that if I said this, I might not even be able to see his forced smile, so in the end I decided I couldn’t say it, okay, maybe there are some other reasons, but that’s not important at all~]
Try to imagine that the stick figure behind the glass is him. This process is super easy, because it’s always I felt that there was an inexplicable resemblance between the two. Although I couldn't tell where exactly, I just wanted to grab it and give it a try today. Oh, but it failed in the end. There is no doubt that it was Mo Tan's fault!
【What is he thinking about? Although I am very curious, I have been curious since a long time ago, but good girls in animation will pretend to be stupid at critical moments, so I hehe, naturally I will not pretend not to know because of such a secondary reason. The real reason should be I don’t want to embarrass him who seems to be working very hard. 】
The popcorn tastes so good! Although the actual taste will always be worse than what it smells like, such fragrant popcorn will definitely not taste bad. Mimi said that delicious snacks can make people feel happy, although she doesn’t know whether popcorn is considered a snack. But I want to make him feel better and tell him, 'It's okay~'
[I don't know what I'm thinking. The problems that came up unexpectedly before may just be because everyone seems to be confused. Do you think there is something going on between Mo Tan and me? However, you will indeed be very happy when you get along with him. Even if he is misunderstood as CP by so many people in the game, he will not object. This kind of thing would have been unimaginable half a year ago. 】
Watching a horror movie together feels really like going on a date. Both the male protagonist in the movie and the person next to him are always uneasy, but they have already started covering their ears in the fifth minute of the opening. I didn't want to go anywhere. I took a sneak look at Mo Tan and found that he was much bolder than I thought. Although his expression was a bit gloomy, he didn't seem to be completely scared. Wow! What kind of trouble is that face making? The evil spirits are gone! The evil spirits are gone!
【So scary, so scary, so scary! Close your eyes, close your eyes, close your eyes! Ah, is that girl okay? That door doesn't feel safe at all. Don't go there! ah! Ahhhh! ! Help! Mother! I'm so scared but I really want to know how it will develop in the future! 】
I was so frightened that I shivered, and I didn’t dare to put down the hands covering my face for a second, but I always subconsciously looked at the screen to death. Mo Tan was so calm! Emmm, is he the type who seems to be timid but can actually read ghost movies as bedtime stories? Please protect me! !
[No more, no more, no more! Me, me, me]
Mo Tan saw that I was scared into a ball. Really, I can give you some comfort. Now I am not the saint who can defeat undead creatures with healing skills. .
[No way, the performance has obviously reached such a wonderful place, don’t get distracted! Let me know you are scared with me! This shouldn't be difficult, right? After all, I have always had a vague feeling]
A scary face flashed across the screen, I screamed subconsciously, and subconsciously wanted to catch him.
【You, maybe, maybe, maybe, you seem to like me a little bit? 】
His wrists were cold, but they were not shaking like him, and his attention never seemed to be completely focused on the content of the movie. His hands were clenched tightly, but it was not that he was scared, but more like he was... Self-blame or reflection?
【I find that I always seem to be able to read your mind, even if it is only a very superficial kind. 】
He looked over and met his eyes for the first time since the movie started. He laughed mockingly in the next second, but there was indescribable exhaustion in his eyes. The plot of the movie changed from that moment It doesn't seem to matter anymore.
[I suddenly thought, if I really can always understand you, then is it really true that I think you like me? Or do I feel too good about myself? 】Ah, not happy! Because I paid too much attention to Mo Tan, I didn’t understand the most crucial ending plot! I have to watch it again when I go back, but it would be so scary to watch it by myself! It’s even scarier if you watch it with Nana! Her screams are scarier than the faces inside!
【However, Mo Tan seems to have regained some of his energy, which is really good. 】
I drank all the milk tea and left half of the popcorn.
【I hope one day you can talk more about yourself. 】
You drank all the Coke and left half of the popcorn.
[Perhaps, I can't share too much for you, but if I can, I hope that one day in the future, you can abandon those scruples that you don't know what they are and go on a date with me again, but Only when I'm ready! 】
For the first time, I feel dissatisfied with my poor words, because your expression is a bit lonely.
【I know that it is not good to be willful, but since we are already more than friends who have dated, even if we are still a little far away from lovers, please give us your guidance in the future. 】
“Well, I’m sorry.”
He looked away.
“Why do you need to apologize~”
Yuchen took two quick steps, walked around to the front of Mo Tan, put his hands behind his back and looked at him with a smile: "It makes it seem like you rejected my confession."
Mo Tan hurriedly waved. Waving his hands, he shook his head vigorously and said: "I didn't mean that!"
"I actually don't know very much about it. Do you like it?"
Yu Chen turned around and slowly retreated to Mo Tan, tilting his head and sticking out his tongue at him: "I don't know if I like you."
Even though Mo Tan had completely adjusted his mentality, he was shocked by Yu Chen's words and his eyes were frightened.
"It's very strange~"
Yu Chen, who was walking next to him, wrinkled his nose and still said to himself: "Sometimes, I even treat you as a completely different person. Ha, that's possible. It's a bit exaggerated, but it does always feel like this, well, Only outside the game, for example, when Nana and I first got off the bus, we suddenly felt that you were so strange, although we couldn’t tell why.”
Mo Tan scratched his hair. , with an expression of 'I have absolutely no idea what you're talking about'.
This was the only thing he didn’t want Yu Chen to know.
It has nothing to do with safety hazards. I just don’t want Yu Chen to know about it. There is no reason.
"Now, although it's a little embarrassing,"
Yu Chen lightly bumped Mo Tan's shoulder and said to the latter half-jokingly: "Don't alienate me, I just finished it for you. Such a powerful task cannot be done by grinding it off!"
Mo Tan laughed dumbly: "If we compare the 'powerful task' to grinding, then"
"Xing Explosion, healing and slashing!”
“Uh, this is obviously a head hammer”
"Starburst Abandoned Healing Head Hammer!!"
"Well, I lost."
Mo Tan raised his hands in surrender, then walked out of the elevator with Yu Chen and came to the main part of the mall. The small open-air square in front.
Yu Chen ran up not far in front of Mo Tan, turned around and smiled at the latter: "Time flies so fast."
"Teacher Einstein In the name of Xiao, I was flattered.”
Mo Tan gave Yu Chen a priestly salute in an exaggerated manner, and then took two quick steps to walk side by side with the girl: "I'll take you back to school."
"Okay, okay, tell me on the way. Please tell me about the details on Sumir’s side!”
“Uh, well, that’s it”
“In exchange, I can share with you a sad story!”
“I’m so grateful for ghost stories.”
"It's not a ghost story, right? Has Yuying contacted you recently?"
"The last time I remember was last week, what happened to her?"
"She We’re in trouble!”
“Dead?”
“Not yet.”
"But it's okay!"
