Chapter 258 - 257: You Annoy Me, Don’t You? (3)
There was a moment when Ling Chuxia suddenly felt that the heavy mask that had weighed on her for three years was slowly fading away, allowing her to return to her true self, not the elder sister, but Ling Chuxia herself.
Nobody wants to be someone else forever, unless absolutely necessary.
Ling Chuxia smiled at her reflection in the mirror, then turned and left the house.
There was a bit of a traffic jam on the road, so by the time Ling Chuxia arrived at the movie theater, it was almost 7:50 pm. As she entered, she looked around for Shi Che but didn’t see him.
Ling Chuxia was slightly disappointed, but she checked the time—there were still ten minutes left. She didn’t need to feel disappointed just yet.
She chose a spot that was quite visible and stood there, waiting for Shi Che.
Although today wasn’t a weekend, because it was Valentine’s Day, the movie theater was still quite crowded, mostly with couples. Everyone’s face was brimming with smiles and happiness, which made it hard not to smile along with them.
Ling Chuxia looked at the couples and somehow, ripples slowly began to spread through the depths of her heart.
Shi Che had set aside enough time for today but hadn’t expected the afternoon meeting to be delayed due to unexpected issues. Since it was a video conference, he couldn’t just cut it short, so in the latter half of the meeting, he was constantly looking at his watch.
