Chapter 76 (3)
The surrounding fans burst into laughter at Tong Yao’s self-introduction. Tong Yao’s ears began to turn slightly pink. She gave Lu Sicheng a glance. Lu Sicheng then said with a faint smile: “Don’t laugh, you guys. She has thin skin. It took me quite a while to persuade her to see a movie with me.”
One of the male fans doubtfully asked: “Just you two?”
Lu Sicheng nodded: “En. That’s right.”
One female fan hesitated: “So you two are really together now? I see a lot of discussion about you two on Tieba and Weibo……”
Lu Sicheng: “We– –”
“We’re purely teammates. It just happened that we came to see the movie together!”

“Where have you two been?”
“Buying fish.”

“En.”
“You think I’m a fool.”
“Actually, we went to see . Let me fill you in about the plot?”
“……”
Little Fatty immediately covered up his ears. Lu Sicheng pulled off his hands with a stone cold face: “Come on.”
Little Fatty: “I don’t want to listen, I don’t! Go away, go away!”
Lu Sicheng released him and said “Trying to trick me, hmph,” while keeping his chin held high. Tong Yao wondered what he was proud of ……Tong Yao watched him go upstairs, then turned around to lie down on the sofa to play on her cell phone. She clicked here and there until she happened to see Xu Tailun’s stream. It looked like he had just started.
