Chapter 86 The Real Tenderness
Gu Bei was adjusting the radio there.

The windshield of a drive-in theater faces the screen, and the movie content will be played on the screen.

Naturally, the sound cannot be played through speakers like in ordinary cinemas, and the car glass can block most of the sound.

The sound of the movie is played to the audience through the FM channel of the radio and the speakers in the car.

"Hiss..."

After a period of adjustment, melodious music finally came out from the radio.

This means the radio is tuned into the drive-in theater's FM channel.

"Okay." Gu Bei turned to look at Liu Yifei, "I'm turning off the lights. Do you want anything else?"

Liu Yifei shook her head.

She is still full and doesn't want to snack.

The lights in the car went out.
Only the moonlight was shining in, allowing one to vaguely see the equipment inside the car and Gu Bei beside him.

I don't know what happened.
She has sat in this passenger seat many times.
This is the third time today, but the feeling this time is completely different from the previous ones.
She felt inexplicably nervous.

"The movie playing here today is 'Sleepless in Seattle'. Have you seen it?" Gu Bei leaned back in his chair, his head slightly tilted, and he could vaguely see her expression.

"Of course I have. For this movie, I even queued for two hours before going to the top of the Empire State Building." Liu Yifei noticed his gaze and turned slightly.

The two people's eyes met in the darkness.

"The results of it?"

"I'm a little disappointed. I feel like it doesn't have the romance that was in the movie at all." Liu Yifei said very honestly.

"Hahaha, most people should feel this way after going up there."

Gu Bei smiled and said, "But most people who come to New York still choose to visit the Empire State Building. This is the charm of classic movies!"

Just then, the screen in front of the car lit up.

The classic "Sleepless in Seattle" began playing.

Liu Yifei felt that in this private and dark little space, it was easier to open up.

Something suddenly occurred to her, so she asked, "So, is this why you want to make a movie?"

"Part of it, but there is another more important reason,
Because movies were once my greatest remedy for loneliness.”

Gu Bei looked at the beautiful face that was looming in front of him and continued slowly, "I went abroad to New York in 02 and stayed at the home of my father's former colleague.

Although I had graduated from junior high school at that time, high school in New York starts in the 9th grade, so I started in the 9th grade and studied in high school for four years.

At that time, I had just gone abroad and my English was not good. I had almost no way to communicate with my classmates and I had almost no friends at school.
As soon as I leave school, I go back to my room and rarely go out except to eat.
The only thing I could do in the room was to use the DVD player to watch movies and TV shows, which helped me relieve my loneliness and learn some English at the same time.

Liu Yifei listened quietly to Gu Bei's story.
She felt a little distressed in her heart, she had never expected that Gu Bei had such an experience.

As she went abroad at a younger age than Gu Bei, she could better understand the difficulties that Gu Bei downplayed.

Even if she was bullied at school or felt lonely, she could still see Liu Xiaoli when she returned home every day during the holidays.

However, Gu Bei had no one by his side and lived alone in North America for five years.

In the darkness,
She reached out and covered Gu Bei's hand, wanting to give him some support.

Gu Bei felt the warm touch, looked down, and found that it was Liu Yifei's slender hands with skin as white as cream.

He felt warm inside,
Perhaps, this is the true tenderness!
He grabbed the white and tender little hand with his backhand.
His fingers clenched into claws, and the pads of each finger crossed with Liu Yifei's. He slowly clenched his fists, crossed his fingers, and immersed himself in the warm touch.
The body temperatures of two people are exchanged to the greatest extent through the palms of these two hands, allowing the other person to feel their own temperature.

Liu Yifei initially thought she would be so shy that she would find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

But after so much interaction in the afternoon and communication during dinner.

She only felt a little confused in her head now, but more of it was clarity. She could clearly feel that the other person was right beside her.

Gu Bei held it for about twenty to thirty seconds.
He loosened his hand and continued:
“In fact, coming to North America has led to a less stressful life for me.

I mentioned to you before, my father is a professor at Zhejiang Normal University."

Liu Yifei nodded.

She thought of her father, who was also a professor.

"The Zhejiang Provincial Normal University is very interesting. It is not in Hangzhou.

But in Wuzhou City, so I can only see my father for a few days every year.

But this does not mean that his requirements for me will be reduced. He has planned a path for me since I was a child.
Participate in the Olympiad class, enter the best junior high school and the best high school in Hangzhou, and finally enter one of the two best universities in China.

I was actually taking a shortcut, but talent in mathematics is talent, and entering the best junior high school in Hangzhou was already my limit.

So, I finally chose to go abroad. Although I am lonely here, the pressure is not as great as it was in China."

Liu Yifei listened quietly.

She didn't know much about the Olympics.

But we also figured out where Gu Bei's Thomas the Tank Engine-like sense of purpose came from.

This is all trained from childhood!

To use the words that Gu Bei often uses, he has been a king of papers since he was a child.

"So, what about you?

Why do you want to apply to the Yale School of Drama? Do you want to be an actor?

Gu Bei looked at Liu Yifei and asked softly.

"my words……"

Liu Yifei showed a trace of confusion.
In fact, even now, she still has some confusion about the road ahead.

“Actually, I came to apply to the Yale School of Drama because I didn’t know what I was going to do in the next few years.
But I really wanted to be an actor, so after being reminded by my family and friends, I discovered that the Yale School of Drama was very strong, so I took the entrance exam.”

She is in a period of confusion now.

The sudden popularity made her feel like an imposter.

She always felt that her success was due to the charm and luck of those characters, rather than her own ability, and that she did not deserve it.

Maybe one day I'll wake up,

A real big star Liu Yifei will appear on TV,

She will become an ordinary person again, just like Zhou Qianqian.

Continuing to study is the best solution she can think of at the moment, so she chose to apply to the Yale School of Drama.
