You’re Beautiful When You Smile
Chapter 75 Part 2

Five minutes later, Tong Yao and Lu Sicheng stopped at a ramen place-- --

They walked in the store and found it mostly empty, probably because it was a work day. They sat down at a table in the corner. Tong Yao opened the menu and swiftly ordered the ramen she wanted, then fixed her eyes on Lu Sicheng.

She stared at him for at least ten seconds.

Finally, Lu Sicheng couldn’t take it anymore and flipped the menu over. He said to the waiter with a dark face: “I’ll have the same. That’ll be all for now. Please hurry, someone is dying of hunger.”

Tong Yao made an ugly face at him. Amused, the waiter quickly took down the order, then turned to walk away. He very considerately left one of the menus on the table for Lu Sicheng-- --Lu Sicheng gave Tong Yao a look as if to say “are you satisfied now?” Lu Sicheng opened the menu again and slowly ordered a few more side dishes……

A little while later, the side dishes came first, before the ramen.

Lu Sicheng pulled the chopsticks apart: “Eat some of these first for now. Don’t stare at me like that, no one is keeping you from eating.”

Tong Yao kept her silence but moved her eyes away from Lu Sicheng-- --After eating a piece of chicken wing, the feeling of hunger disappeared and her craving for food calmed down. She took a quick peek at the man sitting across: somehow he didn’t look so annoying now.

After the ramen arrive, they quietly ate their noodles-- --

Ever since Tong Yao had her pay reduction, she hadn’t eaten a large piece of meat for a long while unless someone else was paying for it. She buried her head in the ramen bowl, thoroughly enjoying it. The man across from her suddenly put the chopsticks down to swipe his cell phone. He casually asked: “What do we do after lunch?”

Tong Yao was slow to realize that Lu Sicheng was talking to her: “Go back to base……”

She was interrupted before she could finish saying “and play ranked games.”

Lu Sicheng: “There’s no training today. I don’t feel like playing games. Maybe go watch a movie……<Independence Day 2> just came out and I haven’t seen it. I’ve been waiting for a long time and if Little Fatty gets to see it first, he’ll spoil the plot for me again. This time, I’ll go see it before him. You’re coming with me.”

Tong Yao: “......”

…...What was going on?

They were all declarative sentences from beginning to end.

…………………………..What was that? ? ?

Tong Yao calmly slurped the noodles into her mouth and thought about it: “Go to a movie? Just the two of us?”

“En.” Lu Sicheng didn’t even raise his head and continued to tap on his cell phone: “There happens to be a newly opened movie theatre on the top floor of this mall…...What was it called? Oh, Wantai Theatre. I got tickets.”

Tong Yao: “......”

Tong Yao: “Just the two of us are going to watch a movie? What’s going on?”

Lu Sicheng: “What do you mean? Isn’t it normal for two people to watch a movie? Do you always watch a movie all by yourself?”

Tong Yao shook her head and was going to say that she would always go with her girlfriends. But on second thought, Jinyang would never want to watch a foreign movie. When she watched Transformers with her, she had to patiently explain everything to Jinyang: The colored ones are good people and all the black metal ones are the bad guys. The good ones fight with the bad ones and are trying to drive the bad ones off of Earth……

Tong Yao then nodded: “It’s quite nice to watch a movie all by myself. I don’t have to worry about interacting with the person next to me.”

Lu Sicheng was a little taken aback by her answer, but soon he smiled: “I won’t bug you.”

Tong Yao looked at the slightly curved up lips and nodded: “Oh, then it’ll be alright.”

Lu Sicheng put down his cell phone after Tong Yao agreed and Tong Yao continued to focus on her ramen-- --After a few more bites, she began to feel that something was off: The point shouldn’t be whether there’s anyone bothering her at movie!

Tong Yao put down her chopsticks: “Captain, you’ve tricked me again.”

Lu Sicheng: “En.” Then he grabbed the cell phone on the table, without looking up, and started to swipe his phone again while asking: “What have I done to you?”

Tong Yao: “You coaxed me into seeing this movie with you.”

Lu Sicheng’s fingers paused on his cell phone: “Do I need to coax you for you to go to a movie with me?”

Tong Yao: “......”

Lu Sicheng: “Then you have a big problem. I’m really sad.”

Tong Yao: “......I’m sorry.”

Tong Yao: “..................................................”

Tong Yao: “................................Lu Sicheng, I don’t want to talk with you ever again.”
