What if you were targeted by a cool and aloof beauty?

She took Jiuge's hand again and pulled her to the corner of the wall, where they leaned against it.

An Chen took out his phone and started looking at recently released movies.

"What kind of movie do you want to watch?" he asked after a few seconds.

An Chen didn't even know what TV programs Jiu Ge liked to watch, let alone choose a movie suitable for her.

Aside from that experience watching a horror movie, when Jiuge and I usually sit on the sofa watching TV, we usually watch news programs or detective shows on the news channel.

Unlike ordinary girls, Jiuge's gaze never lingers on variety shows, entertainment programs, or TV dramas for more than three seconds when she changes channels.

"What specific types of movies are being shown?" Jiuge blinked.

"Actually, I've never watched a movie in a theater before, not even when I was a child." She lowered her head, looking a little embarrassed.

“I know,” An Chen nodded.

It was precisely because I guessed it that I thought of bringing Jiuge to experience it.

"As for the genres of this movie, there are probably suspense, horror, comedy, romance, adventure, history... and so on." An Chen glanced at his phone screen.

Upon hearing the word "horror," Jiuge's pupils dilated slightly.

"Then... how about love?" she suggested cautiously.

It perfectly matches her current situation with An Chen, and watching romance movies can also teach her how to date.

"Okay, then you can choose one. There are two or three movies currently showing." An Chen explained as he handed the phone to Jiu Ge.

“Two are domestic films and one is foreign, two of which have very high ratings.” As he spoke, he glanced at the screen.

Three minutes later, Jiuge finally made her choice: "Then, I'll watch this one."

“Okay.” An Chen nodded, took his phone back, and started buying tickets.

"You still need to choose a seat. Do you want to sit in the front or the back?" he asked.

"Is there any difference?" Jiuge was a little confused.

I never knew watching a movie outside was so complicated.

There weren't so many problems when we watched horror movies at home; the two of us could still stick very close together.

Thinking of horror movies, Jiuge gently shook her head, trying to shake the memory out of her head.

"The view from the middle is better; you need to look at the sides at an angle. As for the back seats, it depends on personal preference. If you sit in the front, it can help with your cervical spondylosis, and the ticket price is also lower." An Chen explained as much as possible in detail.

"Sitting in the front is cheap and can cure cervical spondylosis?" Jiuge's mouth formed an "O" shape.

This is knowledge that wasn't taught in biology class.

"No... it's just a figure of speech. Because you have to tilt your head back when you sit in the front, many people jokingly say it can cure cervical spondylosis." Seeing Jiu Ge's adorable reaction, An Chen couldn't help but chuckle.

“I understand. But… why are you so familiar with this? Who did you watch the movie with?” Jiuge’s expression suddenly turned cold, and her brows even furrowed.

She discovered that things weren't so simple!

“I watched it with my parents before…” An Chen paused for a moment before explaining.

"I see." Jiuge breathed a sigh of relief.

“Then let’s sit in the middle.” With that, she pulled An Chen forward two steps.

Jiuge didn't quite understand why you had to lean against a wall to buy movie tickets.

"Okay, I'll buy it then." An Chen took two steps forward and started tapping on his phone screen.

"Wait! Can I sit in your lap like I do at home?" Jiuge discovered her blind spot again.

"If you want... it's not impossible." An Chen chuckled.

“Then I’ll sit in your lap!” Jiuge said with a serious expression.

“If you don’t mind the staff seeing our every move clearly on the camera,” An Chen added.

"Never mind then..." Jiuge pouted, her tone somewhat aggrieved.

“I don’t mind being watched by the staff.”

"I mind!"

Chapter 139 I saw them kissing

"The movie starts in thirty minutes. You can go to the restroom beforehand so you don't suddenly need to go out and find one during the movie," An Chen suddenly reminded Jiu Ge as they arrived outside the cinema on the fifth floor of Dawan Plaza.

"The restroom?" Jiuge was still looking at the various posters posted outside the movie theater, just like a curious child.

“Yes, if we need to go out in the dark when the movie starts, we might miss something in the middle of the night.” Without waiting for Jiu Ge’s reply, An Chen pulled Jiu Ge towards the restroom next door.

"I don't need to go to the toilet, and I don't have an urgent need to pee." When she arrived at the bathroom door, Jiuge still looked a little hesitant.

"You've drunk so many drinks, you'll need them soon." Releasing Jiu Ge's hand, An Chen prepared to walk into the men's restroom.

"Um... but I don't need to go to the toilet..." Jiuge's face turned red.

After hesitating for a while, she still went into the restroom.

Three minutes later, Jiu Ge, who had already washed her hands, came out. An Chen was already waiting outside.

"So fast? Isn't there a queue inside?" An Chen found it somewhat unbelievable.

In his memory, there were always long queues outside women's restrooms in public places.

“No, and aren’t you faster?” Jiuge shook her head, not quite understanding what An Chen meant.

"Hmm. We still have some time. Shall we go to the movie theater and buy some fries, popcorn, and drinks?" An Chen glanced at the time as they walked towards the movie theater.

"You can buy these things while watching a movie?" Jiuge was dumbfounded.

This service is excellent!

"No, they just sell them at the front desk of the movie theater. You can buy them before entering the theater," An Chen explained patiently.

"But I'm still full, I probably can't eat anymore." Jiuge touched her slightly protruding belly, her tone somewhat regretful.

"The movie is over two hours long, I might get hungry halfway through." As he spoke, An Chen glanced at the movie description on his phone.

The movie they wanted to see was called "If You Were Targeted by a Cool and Aloof Beauty," which tells the love story between a seemingly cool and aloof beauty who is actually a pitiful little thing pretending to be calm and collected, and a male protagonist who is actually a hidden big shot.

The movie is two and a half hours long and has received high ratings. Many viewers have rushed to write reviews for "The Cool and Aloof Girl".

It certainly looks like a great romantic film.

Aside from the possibility of actually getting hungry, An Chen also considered that if couples go to the movies without buying any food or drinks, it would lack a sense of ritual.

"Then let's buy a little bit." Jiuge nodded knowingly.

Five minutes later, An Chen and Jiu Ge sat down in the cinema's rest area, carrying a medium-sized box of mixed popcorn and fries, as well as two large bottles of cola.

Fifteen minutes before the movie started, waves of people kept coming up from the elevator inside the cinema.

A small portion consisted of parents with children, while the majority appeared to be students and couples.

In front of An Chen and Jiu Ge, a young couple still wearing high school uniforms kissed each other as if no one else was around.

An Chen remained expressionless.

Jiuge was stunned.

"Are they both high school students?" Jiuge asked quietly, looking down.

“It seems so.” An Chen nodded.

"I saw them kissing!" Jiuge was a little flustered.

“Yes, I saw it too.” An Chen replied while feeding Jiu Ge a French fry.

It's quite normal for middle school students to date these days.

A decade or so ago, many students had to sneak around when they were dating, but now many students do it openly.

An Chen had previously seen stories online about relationships between elementary school students.

The little boy would spend one of his two yuan allowance on spicy snacks to buy a girlfriend.

And after the breakup, the little boy would cry and whine, "Waaaaah, I love you so much, I spend a dollar every day to buy you spicy snacks, why did you break up with me?"

"Does that mean kissing in public is a normal thing?" Jiuge was shocked.

Thinking about how she had been constantly confessed to by boys since junior high school, she stopped worrying about the age issue.

However, Jiuge was still concerned about whether kissing in public was normal.

In terms of romantic behavior, she and An Chen have only progressed to An Chen kissing her forehead, and their public displays of affection have only progressed to smelling each other's necks.

"That's hard to define..." An Chen didn't know how to answer for a moment...

"..." Jiuge remained silent.

She always felt that she wanted to try this idea but couldn't bring herself to say it.

Looking left and right, Jiuge began to consciously learn about the interactions between other couples.

Ticket checking will begin soon.

A couple suddenly burst in from outside.

"Great... I made it in time..." the girl said, slightly out of breath.

She took out her phone and started replying to messages.

"I told you... I'll definitely make it..." The boy also put his hands on his hips, looking extremely tired.

"But...who are you replying to?" The boy asked curiously, glancing at the girl's screen.

"I was replying to a message in the reader group for 'What If You're Targeted by a Cool and Aloof Beauty,' which is the group of the author of the original work for the movie we're about to watch. This group is so lively; everyone is very talented and speaks so pleasantly," the girl explained.

"How did you get into this group?" the boy asked curiously.

"I joined the group after seeing this book when I was browsing tags on the DianDian app. I'm a long-time fan of the book. Back then, not many people knew about the book because the author didn't promote it. I never expected that I would be able to see a movie about it now."

The girl recalled that experience with a melancholy expression.

"Oh, by the way, you should join this QQ group too!" She shook the boy's arm as if she had just thought of something.

The boy scratched his head. "But I don't use QQ much. And I don't know anyone in the group, and I haven't even started watching the movie yet."
