Should I find a boyfriend too?

Due to the inertia of stumbling and falling... while He Li was holding Miao Xiaoyu, the latter instinctively wrapped her arms around He Li's waist in panic.

The two felt each other's breath and body temperature... hearing the sound of the other person's heart beating rapidly.

Both of them, flustered, quickly blushed and let go.

Passersby around them all smiled knowingly... "Look at that young couple, so loving!"

"Old man, why were you so timid back then?"

"You didn't even dare to hold my hand! What a coward!"

"Good Gege, I want a hug too!"

"I'm not a gibbon; I can't hug that bucket waist of yours!"

"That's too much! Is that how you talk to a girl?"

"Go look at them! That guy is handsome and gentle!"

"Hilarious. Why don't you look at his partner? She's beautiful and gentle too!"

"They are a match made in heaven. What are we? Don't you know? What nerve do we have to compare ourselves to them..."

...Hearing the surrounding chatter, He Li and Miao Xiaoyu exchanged glances and smiled, shedding some of their awkward shyness. They chatted and laughed as they continued walking, quickly arriving inside the cinema.

However, to their surprise, they actually saw Li Feng and Li Lingjie inside the cinema.

And those two were sitting together?

"Are they dating now?" Miao Xiaoyu asked in surprise.

He Li was also a bit confused.

"I don't know. I never noticed anything going on between them before."

He truly didn't know; even in his previous life, he hadn't heard of anything happening between Li Lingjie and Li Feng.

But whatever they were doing had nothing to do with He Li.

He simply said, "Don't worry about them!"

"Their business isn't ours."

"Mhm!" Miao Xiaoyu nodded obediently. Seeing the lights dim in the cinema, she deliberately moved closer to He Li, who then smelled the familiar fragrance suddenly emanating from beside him.

A hint of tenderness flashed in his eyes, and he leaned closer to Miao Xiaoyu, their bodies touching shoulder to shoulder.

Miao Xiaoyu gripped her bag tightly, the corners of her mouth turning up.

As the movie gradually started... He Li occasionally turned his head to chat gently with Miao Xiaoyu.

Miao Xiaoyu occasionally covered her mouth, giggling sweetly without stopping.

A sweet and gentle atmosphere filled the space between them.

Unbeknownst to them, their small interactions were all observed by the person sitting in the back row.

"Don't those two ever get tired of it?"

"They've been aggressively showing affection the whole way here."

"They aren't behaving even in the cinema. I really can't imagine if they'll do something else here..."

Yu Jianxin couldn't help but roll her eyes.

She knew Miao Xiaoyu was going to watch a movie with He Li today.

She was worried these two young people might get reckless here... so she secretly followed them again to check.

After all, didn't the internet often say that young couples liked to secretly engage in improper activities in movie theaters? She definitely didn't want to see her younger female cousin ruined by He Li too early.

However, she hadn't yet seen He Li ruin Miao Xiaoyu.

Instead, following them this whole way, she felt like she was turning into a jealous person herself.

It was simply because He Li and Miao Xiaoyu were too good at showing affection.

They constantly made sweet and loving gestures... How could Yu Jianxin, a single person, bear it?

If she weren't worried about her Older Female Cousin, she probably would have run away from this hateful couple long ago.

In fact, Yu Jianxin wasn't the only one tormented by the small displays of affection between He Li and Miao Xiaoyu; other young couples in the cinema were also greatly provoked... "Why don't you learn from them?"

"How wonderful is the atmosphere between that couple?"

"Whispering sweet nothings shoulder-to-shoulder, gentle and sweet. Why is your mind full of nothing but vulgar talk?"

"And you constantly try to get handsy..."

"Well, do you like it when I get handsy?"

"I do... but I still want sweetness!"

"I want happiness too! Hurry up and learn!"

"Me... is this something you can just learn?"

...Listening to their girlfriends' complaints, the boyfriends in the cinema immediately shot displeased looks at He Li. It was bad enough that this guy was handsome and kept drawing their girlfriends' attention.

Now he was showing off his moves right in front of them?

And why was his girlfriend so stunning?

It felt like even the female lead in the movie was slightly less attractive than her!

This guy... outrageous, truly outrageous!

While the male compatriots were filled with righteous indignation, Li Lingjie, sitting in the corner with Li Feng, felt even more jealous when he spotted He Li. He was jealous of He Li and Miao Xiaoyu's loving sweetness, and he was also jealous that Liu Yuyan liked He Li.

"That bastard, what right does he have?"

"Yu Yan clearly used to ignore him."

"Why is Yu Yan pursuing him now?"

"Miao Xiaoyu has also secretly given her heart to him..."

"Is it just because he's handsome? He has good grades? He can start a business?"

"Is my deep affection worth less than all that?" Li Lingjie couldn't help but recall Liu Yuyan's harsh words from a few days ago. How could she be so cruel and resolute toward him, who loved her so deeply?

Li Feng, sitting next to him, noticed Li Lingjie's abnormality but didn't speak, only feeling a touch of envy toward He Li and Miao Xiaoyu.

When she used to follow behind Liu Yuyan, she hadn't realized it.

Only now, with a comparison, did she realize... He Li and Miao Xiaoyu were truly a perfect match.

They loved and supported each other; every moment they spent together was a genuine expression filled with sweet affection.

In contrast, what did He Li and Liu Yuyan have?

Was that love? It was more like a father taking care of his daughter.

After all, Liu Yuyan only knew how to enjoy, not how to give.

At that time, He Li only knew how to cherish her regardless of the cost.

However, He Li wasn't stupid after all; he eventually woke up.

The relationship developing between him and Miao Xiaoyu now... that was the love she truly dreamed of!

When would she finally have a love like that?

Li Feng was full of envy. Then she looked at Li Lingjie beside her, who was staring at He Li, filled with jealousy and hostility. After he was rejected by Liu Yuyan, she had seized the opportunity to sway him slightly.

But this Simp was too deeply entrenched. Trying to trick him into her hands required a slow approach; rushing it would be useless.

Using the excuse of helping him win back Liu Yuyan today... getting him to watch a movie with her was just the beginning.

"As long as I give him love bit by bit, letting him realize the difference between being loved and loving someone else."

"Then it won't be long before I have him wrapped around my finger!"

"He is a Second-generation rich, after all. Once I secure him..."

"I won't have to worry anymore. Yu Yan, don't blame me either."

"After all, He Li doesn't look favorably upon you, and you don't look favorably upon Li Lingjie, so I'll just take the person you don't want." Thinking this, Li Feng put on a gentle expression and leaned close to Li Lingjie to whisper... The movie ran for nearly three hours.

When they came out, the sky outside was already dark.

He Li walked Miao Xiaoyu home. On the way, she chirped excitedly about the contents of the movie.

He Li watched her with a smile, responding occasionally.

When they passed a roadside stall, He Li bought some snacks.

Miao Xiaoyu talked, walked, and ate, getting oil all over her mouth.

He Li often fed her skewers, just like feeding a kitten.

When the latter ate something particularly delicious, she didn't forget to share half with He Li.

They continued walking, the streetlights illuminating their touching shadows... Love was spreading, drawing the attention of passersby.

Farther behind, Yu Jianxin watched them. Looking at the dim surroundings, she couldn't help but think, "Should I really find a boyfriend like him to accompany me?"

The more she secretly watched He Li and his girlfriend, the more she discovered the beauty of love, and the more she envied them and filled with expectation.

They finally arrived downstairs at Miao Xiaoyu's building... Yu Jianxin watched He Li wave goodbye to Miao Xiaoyu.

Seizing the opportunity, she quickly hurried after him... "Classmate, are you free? Can we talk?"

A clear, pleasant voice came from behind.

The corner of He Li's mouth curled up. He was very familiar with that voice.

Yu Jianxin, Miao Xiaoyu's Older Female Cousin, was a top-tier star who often went to Miao Xiaoyu's house in his previous life. Therefore, He Li was very familiar with her, knew many things about her, and naturally recognized her voice.

But in this life, Yu Jianxin was not familiar with him.

She didn't know that the moment she spoke... He Li had already "reviewed" all her information in his mind!
