147: I think Xi Chuxue is just average.

Holy cow!

Could this be something Xi Chuxue, a woman as cold as an ice mountain, would say?

This was not how Chu Yunxuan remembered Xi Chuxue acting.

So strange, so strange.

But...

Chu Yunxuan's heart swelled with joy.

He looked at the exquisitely beautiful Xi Chuxue before him and asked, "Oh? So, it's possible for me to make the guy you like look like a clown? I have a chance to steal him away?"

"Mm."

Xi Chuxue smiled and nodded.

Chu Yunxuan: "..."

Indeed!

In web novels, it's not without reason that hero saving the beauty often leads to the woman offering herself in return.

Even Xi Chuxue could be moved by a hero saving the beauty.

Since she already said so...

It meant that he, Chu Yunxuan, basically had a chance to succeed!

Holy cow!

"Then, beautiful Miss Xi Chuxue, after dinner, may I invite you to watch a movie?" Chu Yunxuan asked with a smile.

Xi Chuxue casually brushed her beautiful hair and said, "I'll treat you."

"Alright."

...

After dinner, Xi Chuxue paid the bill, and then the two walked out, shoulder to shoulder.

Xi Chuxue was in a particularly good mood.

For two reasons.

First, she and Chu Yunxuan had recognized each other.

Second, they hadn't completely recognized each other.

He actually thought she liked someone else.

How interesting.

And she had teased him.

Making him truly believe she had another male she liked.

Before, she had absolutely no mood or inclination for such things.

But for Chu Yunxuan, it was an exception.

Xi Chuxue didn't want to hide her true feelings; she knew she liked Chu Yunxuan.

She also understood that a large part of the reason was that Chu Yunxuan had saved her, and she had 'died.'

Out of guilt or whatever.

But she just fell in love.

Originally, Xi Chuxue had summoned the courage to express her feelings to Chu Yunxuan.

She had spent the entire previous night envisioning many conversation scenarios, figuring out when to confess her feelings to Chu Yunxuan.

However, because of Chu Yunxuan's misunderstanding, Xi Chuxue changed her mind.

This way, it was quite good.

"Who is that guy you like?" Chu Yunxuan asked curiously.

Xi Chuxue pondered for a moment and said, "You know him."

"I know him too? Who could I know? Shen Qianjun and the others aren't it, so who else could it be?" Chu Yunxuan pondered.

"Guess," Xi Chuxue rarely showed a hint of mischievousness.

"Forget it, anyway, it won't be long before he becomes a clown," Chu Yunxuan said with a laugh.

The two arrived at the cinema.

Chu Yunxuan specifically chose a romance film.

Horror films were meaningless.

As a top Genius, Xi Chuxue wasn't afraid of terrifying Yao Beasts or Demonic Beasts, so why would she be afraid of horror films?

The two sat in a relatively back row.

In the dim environment, the movie began.

Before this, Xi Chuxue actually didn't understand what was so good about movies.

Let alone going to a cinema.

But now, she seemed to grasp some of the true meaning within it.

Around them, many couples were leaning against each other.

How could Chu Yunxuan have any mind to watch the movie?

He glanced at Xi Chuxue beside him out of the corner of his eye.

She seemed to be watching with great interest.

Then, Chu Yunxuan's hand stealthily reached towards Xi Chuxue.

Their fingertips touched.

Xi Chuxue froze.

She glanced at Chu Yunxuan beside her.

Chu Yunxuan was watching the movie.

Xi Chuxue: "..."

No wonder boys always ask girls to watch movies.

So that's what it meant.

And after Chu Yunxuan's fingertip touched Xi Chuxue's hand, he noticed she didn't pull her hand away, which made his heart even more joyful.

He then no longer limited himself to just fingertip contact.

Slowly, Chu Yunxuan's hand rested on Xi Chuxue's hand.

Xi Chuxue felt very awkward.

She had never had such an experience before.

But...

She also found it quite amusing.

She still didn't pull her hand away, pretending to be seriously watching the movie.

And Chu Yunxuan completely held her hand.

So satisfying! So satisfying!

Unbeatable!

Xi Chuxue didn't reject him!

She didn't refuse this, plus what she said before.

Isn't it obvious?

"Brother, no matter who you are, but since Xi Chuxue likes you, and you don't seem to show anything, then I'm sorry, I'm definitely stealing her," Chu Yunxuan thought to himself.

Midway through the movie.

Chu Yunxuan was no longer satisfied with just holding hands.

He let go of Xi Chuxue's hand.

Although Xi Chuxue seemed to be watching the movie the whole time, in reality, she was paying attention to Chu Yunxuan's every little movement.

Seeing Chu Yunxuan let go of her hand...

She felt a little lost.

Did he... not want to hold it anymore?

However, in the next second...

Xi Chuxue felt a hand on her thigh, under her skirt.

Xi Chuxue's delicate body trembled.

In the dim environment, her pretty face was flushed with a faint crimson.

She appeared to have no reaction, but her body was extremely tense.

Chu Yunxuan was delighted.

Holy cow!

She's even letting me touch her leg?

He was invincible!

Chu Yunxuan's hand gently explored through the skirt.

What a pity.

This skirt was still quite thick.

This won't do.

Since she's allowing this...

Then let's try again.

See how far she'll let me go before she stops me.

Chu Yunxuan's hand moved up with very, very small increments.

Xi Chuxue: "..."

How outrageous.

Then, Chu Yunxuan's hand rested on her leg, just a little above her knee.

However, at this position, there was no longer a skirt separating them.

Holy cow!

Chu Yunxuan felt a surge of exhilaration.

This was absolutely incredible.

She's allowing this?

What kind of wall-digging is this?

Can this even be considered stealing someone anymore?

And Xi Chuxue's delicate body trembled.

How outrageous.

How awkward.

He wouldn't go even further, would he?

Of course he would.

Chu Yunxuan's hand moved higher and higher.

Finally, it reached a position that Xi Chuxue could no longer bear.

She pressed down on Chu Yunxuan's hand.

Chu Yunxuan looked at Xi Chuxue.

Xi Chuxue bit her lip, too embarrassed to turn her head.

Chu Yunxuan didn't go any further.

He kept his hand at that position until the movie ended.

As the lights came on...

Xi Chuxue let out a long sigh of relief.

It was finally over.

The two walked out of the mall.

"Well... I'll go back first," Xi Chuxue said.

"I'll walk you."

"It's fine, no need."

"Then, shall we go out again tomorrow? It's my treat this time."

Xi Chuxue thought for a moment, then nodded slightly: "Alright."

Chu Yunxuan was delighted.

Invincible!

Looking at today's progress, he'd seal the deal tomorrow!

...

After they parted ways...

Chu Yunxuan also returned to Jiang Ying's home.

Jiang Ying, who was Cultivating, opened her beautiful eyes and looked at Chu Yunxuan.

"Oh, you're back?"

Chu Yunxuan changed his shoes and said, "Yeah, I'm back."

"How was it?" Jiang Ying asked teasingly.

"Sigh, don't even ask," Chu Yunxuan sighed.

Jiang Ying: "..."

She thought he'd pretend a bit, but he sighed right away?

"I told you, she has someone she likes. I've known her for over twenty years; I know exactly what kind of person she is. The person she likes, she'll never change her heart in this lifetime. Just give up," Jiang Ying said triumphantly.

Chu Yunxuan sat next to Jiang Ying, stretched, and said, "No, it's not that. I just feel it was too easy."

"Hmm?"

Jiang Ying looked at Chu Yunxuan in confusion.

Chu Yunxuan said, "I just feel... a little disappointed."

"Disappointed?"

"Yeah, I thought Xi Chuxue was an ice queen, how special she was, especially since you made her sound so cold and indifferent. But in the end, she's not like that at all. I feel like she's no different from an ordinary girl, rather, she seems a bit open, a bit casual, and even a bit of a green tea."

Jiang Ying: "..."

What a joke.

Xi Chuxue, open? Loose? Green tea?

Jiang Ying wanted to see what nonsense Chu Yunxuan could come up with.

"Doesn't she have someone she likes?"

"That's right," Jiang Ying nodded.

"I said it was a pity you already had a guy you liked, and guess what she told me?"

"What?"

Chu Yunxuan said, "She just said, it's normal for a person to change their mind. Tell me, is that something an ice queen should say? Her hint to me was already obvious enough, I even feel like she was fishing for me. Having someone she likes, and then telling another guy that it's normal to change your mind, isn't that green tea? Sigh, what a disappointment."

Jiang Ying: "..."

He's putting on an act.

This Chu Yunxuan is so good at showing off!

How could Xi Chuxue possibly say such a thing?

Jiang Ying suppressed her laughter: "And then?"

Chu Yunxuan said, "After dinner, we went to watch a movie."

"Uh-huh, and then?"

Jiang Ying thought going to a movie was normal.

Xi Chuxue had already treated him to dinner to thank him, so if he invited her to a movie, she wouldn't be able to refuse.

"During the movie, I held her hand."

"Oh? She didn't resist?"

"That's right, and then I even touched her leg."

Jiang Ying suppressed her laughter and asked, "Didn't resist either?"

"Yes, at first it was through her skirt, but later, there wasn't even a skirt separating us. So, I'm a bit disappointed, but she is indeed beautiful, so it wasn't a loss, and I also had a bet with you."

Jiang Ying: "..."

Hahahaha!

He's so good at showing off!

"Hahahaha—"

Jiang Ying couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"What are you laughing at?" Chu Yunxuan asked, looking at her.

"Hahaha, no, big brother, you can show off and make me think you're capable and have a chance to win her over, but don't treat me like an idiot. I've known her for over twenty years, do you think I'd believe what you're saying?"

Jiang Ying laughed so hard she was bent over.
