The Goddess is a Little Pitiful, I Invested in Her!

Chapter 44 – Two Hours of Love!

When the meal was over, Qi’s mom and dad leisurely returned home. But Lian Qingxue couldn’t because she was stuffed with food and couldn’t move.

Qi Yun looked at Lian Qingxue, who was sitting on the chair, grunting and rubbing her stomach, and couldn’t help but laugh.

“If you couldn’t eat anymore, then why did you keep eating!”

Lian Qingxue rolled her eyes and said, “How can I not eat the dishes Auntie picked? Later ……”

Her voice was small, like a mosquito humming.

Qi Yun leaned in, not catching her words clearly. “Later what?” He inquired.

“Later, If we are together in the future, what if she doesn’t have a good impression of me?” Lian Qingxue said with a red face.

“Oh, you are trying to win over the heart of your future mother-in-law? Little Qingxue, you are very strategic!”

……

After leaving the restaurant, Qi Yun accompanied Lian Qingxue for a leisurely walk along the street to help her digest.

After walking for a while, Qi Yun suddenly felt that Lian Qingxue stopped.

She was staring at a billboard on the side.

“Hmm? Want to watch a movie?” Qi Yun asked.

It was an advertisement for a new movie from the nearby cinema, which seemed to be a love story.

Lian Qingxue hesitated for a moment and replied, “Not really.”

Although she said so, still, there was a hint of excitement on her face.

“Uh, what are you doing?”

Qi Yun pulled Lian Qingxue towards the ticket office: “I don’t want to see it!”

“But I want to see it! Two tickets, please!”

After getting the tickets, Lian Qingxue grumbled, “You are wasting money again!”

But the smile on her face couldn’t hide her excitement.

Qi Yun handed the ticket to Lian Qingxue and bought a large bucket of popcorn and two cups of soda before they walked into the theater.

……

Sitting inside the movie hall, Lian Qingxue wriggled around, looking very curious.

“You rarely come to watch movies, right?” Qi Yun asked curiously.

“I came here as a child when the school administration organized a function. It has changed a lot here.”

Lian Qingxue said with extra cheerfulness.

Qi Yun understood why she wanted to watch a movie.

Although, in Qi Yun’s eyes, the cinema in Spring City was still very old-fashioned, it was something new for Lian Qingxue.

After trying some popcorn, her eyes lit up. “This popcorn is so sweet!”

A sense of concern quickly accompanied her enjoyment. “I can’t eat anymore! It would be a waste,” she fretted.

Despite this, she stubbornly stuffed two small handsful into her mouth.

Seeing a little excited Lian Qingxue, Qi Yun gently ruffled her hair and said, “We have a long life ahead of us. I will accompany you to watch many more movies.”

“Mmm!”

……

As the movie began, the theater plunged into darkness. Qi Yun couldn’t help but notice that the cinema didn’t seem to boast advanced features like a 3D screen or IMAX technology that were often found in big cities, but certainly not in Spring City.

Qi Yun’s interest in romantic movies was already limited. After watching for about ten minutes, he lost interest.

He turned sideways and looked at Lian Qingxue, who was still watching the movie with great interest.

Which movie could be better than his good-looking girlfriend?

After a while, he felt itchy on his right hand, which he had placed next to Lian Qingxue.

……

Behind Qi Yun and Lian Qingxue sat a young man in his twenties. Originally, he had planned to attend the movie with a female classmate he had been pursuing for a long time. In anticipation, he had even chosen a romantic movie, hoping it would set the perfect atmosphere for their time together. However, to his disappointment, his plans had fallen through.

So, he was sitting alone, holding two tickets, surrounded by an empty seat and a heart full of sadness.

However, when he saw Lian Qingxue’s face in the dim light of the cinema, he realized he had fallen in love again.

Although in the faint light of cinema, her face was blurry. But the boy was sure he had found his true love again!

The boy took out his cell phone and typed: “Brother, I’m in love!”

The person sitting on the other side replied surprisingly: “Aren’t you watching a movie with Ye Miao Miao? Did you confess your love to her?”

“Who is Ye Miao Miao? It doesn’t matter! Brother, I fell in love at first sight! Wait, I’ll confess my love to her after the movie!”

“……”

The other boy replied with a string of ellipses.

The boy didn’t care at all. He put down his phone and stared blankly at Lian Qingxue. He even started thinking about what to name their future children.

Huh?

What happened to the goddess’ expression?

Why did she look so pained?

Why was she biting her lip?

Why were her eyes watery, as if she was about to cry?

The young man leaned forward anxiously, desperately trying to see what was the matter with his goddess.

However, he noticed Qi Yun and his hand.

“……”

The boy remained seated in his chair long after the movie had ended. His young and innocent heart shattered into countless pieces. He couldn’t comprehend what he had witnessed. The sight of Lian Qingxue’s shy but seemingly accepting expression had left him utterly bewildered and devastated.

As time ticked away, he sat there in silence, lost in his thoughts. Eventually, a message from his roommate popped up on his phone screen. He asked, “Brother, how did your confession go? Did you succeed?”

Seeing that he hadn’t replied for a long time, his roommate sent another message: “Brother? Have you failed to confess? Don’t be sad. Come back. I’ll take you out for a drink tonight!”

After reading the messages from his roommate, a warmth spread through the young man’s desolate heart.

“Screw love! My brother’s shoulder is still warm and there for me!”

……

The young man didn’t know that he had unintentionally broken someone’s heart and perhaps even changed his life.

Qi Yun was now facing a big problem.

In a moment of impulsive behavior, Qi Yun had upset Lian Qingxue, and she was ignoring him now!
