65 Adopted sisters
Currently, Han Zixin and An Xiulan were following Yan Shan and his girlfriend to the cinema theatre where they bought tickets for the same movie.
“What?” Han Zixin arrogantly asked as he saw An Xiulan pointing her finger at the couple with a cheesy smile.
Actually, she was not pointing at the couple but at Yan Shan who had bought popcorn and drinks for his date. She was pointing to his deskmate to buy her the same things.
“An Xiulan! We are not here to see a movie,” Han Zixin said through gritted teeth as he noticed what she was talking about. Could she for a moment stop thinking about food? Lord, this girl was embarrassing her.
An Xiulan put her hands on her cheeks, waving them like wings and blinking continuously at him with the ridiculous smile etched on her lips. Meimei said if someone doesn’t agree with you, act cute and adorable. This was what she was doing right now.
“Fine,” Han Zixin grumbled when he saw how determined she was by being ridiculously silly.
An Xiulan patted herself when he went to buy popcorn and drinks for them. It worked! Yaay!
“Cheat prince, buy two boxes of popcorn for me,” An Xiulan shouted from behind, earning a glare from him.
But did she give a damn?
Oh, honey, she was out of damns to give.
“An Xiulan, stop paying attention to the movie,” Han Zixin whispered when he noticed how engrossed she was in the movie. “Remember we are here to catch those liars who say they are not in a relationship red-handed.”
An Xiulan nodded her head in understanding while her eyes were still on the movie screen. Before he could say something else, she burst out laughing. They were watching an animation movie. It was her first time seeing a movie in a cinema hall and she quite liked it.
“Little blockhead!”
The popcorn box staggered in her lap by the intensity of his voice and she looked at him, gulping. Why did she always get on his nerves even when she was not trying?
“Yes. Yes. We are here on a mission,” An Xiulan quickly said, appeasing him. “Cheat Prince, are you sure they are a couple? They could be simply enjoying a movie like two friends.”
Han Zixin pulled out the best selling romance novel from his jacket pocket and opened the marked page, “Look here carefully, this guy took his girlfriend on a date in a shopping mall. They started by watching a movie. He is wearing the best of his clothes like the male lead in the book.”
An Xiulan looked at the highlighted paragraph and then at Yan Shan who was shining like a utensil which had undergone a thorough scrubbing. Then, she nodded her head.
“You actually make sense,” An Xiulan said with a nod. “But it’s not enough. Even I am even wearing my best clothes with my best mini bag.”
She showed her mini bag and smiled. ρꪖꪕᦔꪖꪕꪫꪣꫀꪶ
“Look how he bought popcorn and drinks for her. Now he is even feeding her,” said Han Zixin pointing towards the teenagers occupying a seat a row before them. Then, he showed her another highlighted paragraph in the novel and said, “The male lead fed the female lead popcorn during the entire movie. If they were just friends, he should have bought two boxes of popcorn, not a single one.”
An Xiulan understood his point and nodded her head.
“Cheat Prince, since we are sure for now that they are dating, why not watch the movie till the end,” An Xiulan said and turned her attention to the movie. Her movie was more important than the couple.
“They are leaving,” Han Zixin whisper shouted. “We have to leave!”
An Xiulan, who was pulled into the world of the film, glared at him and peeled off his hand for her arm, paid her attention back to the movie. At no cost, she was going to leave the movie to follow the couple.
“Little blockhead, I said let’s go,” Han Zixin whisper-shouted once again as he saw those two exiting the cinema hall. She even tried pulling her away but in the end, he wasn’t able to shake off the damned girl.
And seriously, An Xiulan didn’t jut out until she had watched the entire movie. Only when she was satisfied and hungry did she walk out of the cinema hall with the boy who had pulled a long face but there was nothing new about it as it was the most common thing for him to do.
Even if she gave him an entire sphere world, he would squeeze it into a rectangle like the face that he was pulling.
After spending two hours in the cinema hall, now they were inside the arcade section.
“I told you they were dating!” Han Zixin said as he saw Yan Shan trying to get the girl a stuffed toy by putting coins in the claw machine. “Everything is happening according to the novel.”
“Little blockhead!” He called out her name when he noticed that she didn’t respond. He turned his head to find her trying to get hold of a stuffed toy. Apparently, she was playing the same game as Yan Shan.
“What are you doing?” If he could breathe out fire, he would have as he was standing with his hand placed on his waist, looking at a certain blockhead.
“Oh, I want this cute kitty toy for my sisters,” An Xiulan replied as she tried to claw the kitty toy but failed once again.
“You have sisters?” Han Zixin asked her in surprise.
An Xiulan nodded her head.
“Didn’t you say you are an only child?” Han Zixin couldn’t help but ask when he saw her nodding her head. What was up with this girl?
“My mom just adopted my sisters Friday night,” An Xiulan answered as she glanced at him. “Their mother died after giving birth to them and my mom adopted them.”
