Rong Xiyi: "..."

"Xu Lin, you better carry me later!"

Rong Xiyi thought about it; it's only fifteen minutes, she could endure it. She piggybacked Xu Lin, walking slowly.

"Young man, this isn't right. How can you let a young girl carry you?"

At this moment, a fifty-something man nearby couldn't stand it anymore. The way he was raised was that men should be more accommodating to women, and it's no big deal for men to suffer some losses.

Xu Lin glanced at him and said, "Sir, go home and get some sleep!"

The man: ...

Xu Lin said to Rong Xiyi, "Good sister, let's go!"

"Xu Lin, you're such a bastard. You better carry me later!"

Rong Xiyi puffed up angrily, barely enduring carrying Xu Lin for fifteen minutes.

"Xu Lin, it's my turn now!"

Rong Xiyi didn't even wait for Xu Lin to squat down a bit. She just climbed onto Xu Lin's back, making him carry her, her face full of a cheeky grin, beyond excited.

Rong Xiyi emphasized, "Half an hour, not a second less."

"You don't need to tell me."

Actually, Xu Lin only carried her for seven minutes because they went to the restaurant ahead for dinner.

When they came out, it was already past twelve.

Xu Lin hailed a cab, heading for the best mall in Jiangdu.

He hadn't taken the electric scooter today.

Ms. Ren was coming over tomorrow, and Rong Xiyi needed to pick out a jade bracelet.

Soon, the two of them were in a jewelry store inside the mall.

"Xu Lin, it's not right to just gift something that costs a few hundred bucks, is it?"

Rong Xiyi didn't think it would be appropriate.

"If you think a few hundred won't do, add some more money. Getting one for two or three thousand is also fine, but no more expensive than that."

Xu Lin said, "Over at my grandpa's, during New Years, giving ten or twenty bucks in red envelopes is enough, and parents only give one or two hundred at most to their kids. Don't go for something too pricey."

"Then I'll pick a jade bracelet for two or three thousand!"

Rong Xiyi dragged Xu Lin around, actually checking out several jewelry stores. In a big mall like this, there's no shortage of gold and jewelry stores. As long as you have money, you can choose whatever you want.

In the end, Rong Xiyi chose a jade bracelet for over three thousand. If Xu Lin hadn't stopped her, she would've gone for the tens of thousands ones.

But Xu Lin felt it was unnecessary.

"Xu Lin, do you think mom will like this kind of jade bracelet?"

Rong Xiyi was curious and expectant.

"It's not about the jade bracelet, it's about the person. As the saying goes, 'a gift of goose feathers sent from a thousand miles away, though light, it carries deep affection.' Having that sentiment is enough. My mom isn't someone who values money above all."

"It's our mom!"

"Alright, alright, our mom."

"You can't say 'my mom' anymore in the future!"

Rong Xiyi emphasized again.

Xu Lin thought, why get hung up over these two words? You call her mom, I call her mom, can't we just have our own ways?

"Anywhere else you want to go? I'm kind of ready to head back."

Xu Lin wasn't interested in shopping outside, just found it very boring.

"I want to go to the movies."

"But I want to go back."

"No, you have to go to the movies with me!"

"I want to go back, really."

"Movie!"

"I honestly want to go back, I'm tired."

In this world, besides outliers, purely men won't enjoy shopping.

"I want to watch a movie, just accompany me this once, brother! Good brother, accompany your sister, will you?"

Rong Xiyi started acting cute, holding onto Xu Lin's right arm, swaying it back and forth.

There were already many people in the mall, and seeing such a pretty girl acting cute to a guy, quite a few guys wanted to chop Xu Lin up. How could this guy not know how good he has it?

"Not going."

Xu Lin knew he couldn't spoil her.

"Brother! Big brother! Good brother! You have to accompany your sister! Besides, the cinema is on the fifth floor, it's not far, brother, sister really wants to see a movie!"

Rong Xiyi continued acting cute while shaking Xu Lin's hand.

"Not going."

"Xu Lin, accompany me, at most I'll agree to one condition, any condition is fine, just watch a movie with me."

"If there's a condition, it's not impossible."

Xu Lin was intrigued.

"Xu Lin, is it only under conditions that you'll accompany me? What about Ning Yuhuan? You often accompany her, when it's my turn, you won't even watch a movie with me."

Rong Xiyi was a bit helpless, "It feels like you're treating us differently, I'm definitely not worse than that Ning Yuhuan."

"Don't mix concepts."

Xu Lin corrected her: "Firstly, watching movies is very boring to me, especially since you're a girl, I roughly know what kind of movies you'll watch. The movies girls watch I definitely can't sit through unless I go against my conscience. As for accompanying the senior, I also went to study with her. She often went to the library, and I went along, so I made some progress too. But movies cannot make me improve, see the difference?"

"But watching a movie doesn't take much time."

Rong Xiyi felt quite depressed.

"Upset now."

"Xu Lin!"

"I'll watch a movie with you then!"

Seeing she was pouting, Xu Lin chuckled and pulled her to the escalator to the fifth floor. During this time, Rong Xiyi didn't say anything, sulking.

Rong Xiyi thought Xu Lin might coax her, but Xu Lin didn't at all.

Not long after, they reached the cinema.

"Which movie to watch?"

Xu Lin asked her.

Rong Xiyi didn't respond.

Xu Lin said, "If you're not watching, I'm leaving."

"This one!"

Rong Xiyi finally spoke, pointing to a domestic romance film.

Xu Lin took one look and lost interest, this is why he doesn't watch movies with girls, because they watch nonsense films.

Xu Lin bought tickets, as well as popcorn and cola. The two joined a group of young couples entering the screening hall. Those guys were probably accompanying their girlfriends or wives to watch these kinds of movies, Xu Lin didn't believe any serious guy would watch romances by amateur screenwriters.
