"Huh? What are you talking about?"

Yuko turned to look at him, her eyes filled with innocence and deep confusion.

Young girls who are inexperienced in the ways of the world are better off not knowing these things, and innocent young boys should also know as little as possible, as those things are unhealthy.

Of course, Li Zhu couldn't tell the truth, so she had to make up other things.

"Ahem, it's nothing. What I mean is that youth isn't only shown through romance. Some directors are like they have no brains at all. All they know is how to be in love to the point of death. It's so fake."

"Furthermore, does youth only mean having been in a relationship? What about those who silently strive and dedicate themselves to their dreams? Doesn't their youth also count as youth?"

Yuko was clearly taken aback; she hadn't expected Riyu to say those words.

"Li Zhu is so mature and amazing to say something like that."

In the darkness, Yuko's eyes shone with adoration.

"Pfft, I just said a few words, what's so great about that? There are plenty of people more capable than me, don't flatter me."

Li Zhu smiled and shook her head. She had only received nine years of compulsory education. Any Xiu'er who hadn't frozen to death after ten years of studying could have said those words.

Yuko is a high school student and still confused about some things, but Riyu is different. He has the soul of a twenty-year-old living in his seventeen-year-old body.

"But I think you're really cool and amazing in my eyes!"

A sixteen-year-old girl is at the age when she is already in love, and she also meets such a special and mysterious seventeen-year-old boy who saved her.

So in Yuko's eyes, how could he not be handsome, how could he not be amazing?

He was like a deadly poison, and every word and action of his made the poisoned girl unable to extricate herself.

As the two were talking, the movie about youthful romance began.

……

Chapter Thirty-Seven: Immersive Viewing

The movie begins.

The opening is in cool colors.

Then, a camera lens of a certain brand of mobile phone appeared on the big screen.

My phone suddenly vibrated and lit up. It was a message from someone whose contact name was "My Piggy Girl".

The message has not been read.

Clearly, something must have happened to the phone's owner, which is why they didn't notice the message in time.

The camera slowly zoomed in, and the audience could then see the message's content.

[Darling, it's been a long time.]

Then the screen went dark again.

The movie thus began.

The following shots used montage techniques to cleverly transition between scenes, introducing the film's title through shots of room decorations.

It's a cartoon-style illustration of the title "Those Years with My Girlfriend".

The story's art style has also changed, shifting from cool tones to a fresh and beautiful aesthetic, with melodious and pleasant background music that unconsciously stirs people's emotions.

The protagonist is a high school girl with a cutely decorated room and a few small flowers. Although there are signs that someone lives with her, she seems to live alone.

However, in some ways she is like Kyoko Hanayama, who is like a piece of chewing gum, full of energy every day and always optimistic and positive.

The movie was full of positive energy, but Li Zhu felt a sense of unease, though she couldn't quite put her finger on it.

Thus, the film tells the story of a girl's strange encounters on her way to school, as well as a series of hilarious and absurd campus events.

Who would have thought that this movie, titled "You Are the Apple of My Eye," would be told from the female protagonist's perspective?

The lighthearted and humorous style quickly won over the audience, who began to whisper among themselves. Some viewers with low thresholds for laughter even sprayed their drinks all over the couple in front of them.

Now, there's a joyful atmosphere both inside and outside the painting.

Only Li Zhu yawned, looking a little sleepy.

"It's really boring, I'd rather watch an adult movie."

He muttered to himself, but Yuko beside him was overjoyed. She followed the plot on the screen, sometimes tense, sometimes giggling like a child who had never seen a movie before.

"What's wrong? Is the movie not good?" Yuko asked, noticing that Riki's mind wasn't on the movie.

"No, the movie was great, you have excellent taste. It's just that I got up early today and I'm a little sleepy. I really enjoy watching it, don't worry," Li Zhu explained with a smile.

Seeing Yuko's enthusiastic attitude, and knowing that she had invited Riyu to the movies, and that this particular film was one she had carefully chosen, he naturally felt bad about spoiling her fun.

"Next time, let's agree to stay up a little later so you can sleep a little longer."

Next time? Next time is probably anyone's guess.

Amidst the bursts of laughter, Li Zhu's fake smile seemed somewhat out of place.

People's pessimism is not shared; he only found their noise annoying.

……

If the first half hour of the movie is light and easygoing, then after the male lead appears, some things begin to subtly change.

The film uses a single long take to depict the male protagonist's entrance.

A few quiet gasps from girls could be heard from various parts of the dimly lit theater.

The male lead is so handsome!

Even the sleepy Li Zhu suddenly woke up, and the moment he saw the male lead's face, his body slowly shuddered.

Hmm, this handsome guy looks kind of familiar...

It was just a fleeting thought.

When Li Zhu took a closer look at the male lead's handsome face, she found that she could no longer find that inexplicable sense of familiarity.

While Riku was still wondering if there was something wrong with her memory, she didn't notice that Yuko was also frozen in her seat as if possessed.

"Suddenly, I don't want the male and female leads to be together anymore," she said abruptly.

"Huh? What did you say?"

Hearing the sound, Li Zhu turned to look at her and found that Yuko had returned to her original state.

"It's nothing. I just suddenly felt sorry for the male lead. The female lead is two-faced and really wicked. She doesn't deserve the male lead's affection," Yuko said indignantly, her fair hands clenched into fists.

"Yes, is there?"

Li Zhu scratched her head. The plot always involved the female lead taking the initiative to help classmates who needed help, and the male lead happened to be one of them.

They developed feelings for each other by chance, and their relationship had only just begun to take off.

Next, we should move on to the part that girls love most: the sweet moments.

How did you come to the conclusion that the female lead is two-faced?

Did he watch for half an hour less?

"Don't you believe me? The female lead is really a bad person."

Yuko Crystal looked at Riyu with her big eyes and said weakly.

"I...I believe you."

Damn, even watching a movie requires making a choice.

Li Zhu said helplessly, "Let's continue watching the movie and not discuss these things for now, okay?"

"it is good."

Then, Yuko, looking indignant, stared intently at the smiling female lead in the movie, her expression serious, as if she were guarding against a thief.

As expected, the sweet moment arrived, with the female lead and male lead agreeing to go to the amusement park.

The screenwriter also understands this well, with various accidental romantic misunderstandings and lucky pervert plots, as the two gradually understand their own feelings from the ambiguous and ignorant period.

They like each other.

As the sun sets, the male and female protagonists ride a Ferris wheel and make a promise at the highest point, sealing their vow to never be apart with a passionate French kiss that sends the movie theater into a frenzy.

However, something unexpected happened at this stage.

Um, I don't mean the protagonist in the movie has an accident, but rather that an audience member in the movie theater has an accident.

As they watched the sunset, the two snuggled together, ready to give each other a kiss.

"No! Don't agree to her!"

Yuko suddenly stood up, clutching her head, and shouted. It was only because Riki held her back that she didn't rush forward.

"Yuko, are you crazy! What are you doing! Sit down! That's a movie that's already being shown, the plot has already been filmed, no matter how much you shout, you can't change it."

"..."

"It can't be changed..."

Upon hearing this, Yuko seemed to understand something and stood there in a daze.

She was distraught, like a wind-up doll, letting Li Zhu pull her to sit down.

"What the hell is this? There's so much trouble just to watch a movie!"

It was that couple from before who spoke up; they felt they had the worst luck of the day.

"Exactly, they have no manners at all. Don't they know you can't shout and yell in a movie theater?"

More and more viewers are expressing their dissatisfaction.

"I'm sorry, everyone. My sister has always been quite, well, quite immersed in movie plots, so she just got excited and that's why she did that."

Um, speaking of immersing yourself in the story, isn't it about identifying with the protagonist? Not the victim, so why are you so vehemently opposing this marriage?

This girl is really strange.

Riki shielded the still-dazed Yuko behind her and quickly bowed to apologize to everyone around her.

"I'm so sorry, I'm really sorry."

He had no other choice but to apologize profusely.

Once again, he found himself standing in front of the female lead without even realizing it. Now, he wasn't worried about whether or not his favorability rating would increase.

We can't expect girls to face these things on their own.

"Hmph, so what if you're handsome!"

"I'll let it go this time, but be more careful next time. Don't think I won't hit you just because you two are good-looking!"

"Thank you all for your understanding. Everyone here is even more handsome than me."

……

Chapter Thirty-Eight: This Movie is Killing Like Crazy

After Li Zhu's sincere apology, the movie is gradually entering an important turning point.

So everyone's mood quickly calmed down.

It was a close call, but no real danger.

He let out a long breath and wiped away imaginary sweat from his forehead.

Hey, thankfully everyone gave me, Pear, some face, so things didn't fall out on the spot.

At this moment, Yuko came to her senses and looked at Riyuki standing in front of her. Suddenly, she felt as if she had been stabbed in the heart.

Just as he was about to sit down, he felt someone tug at his clothes.

Turning my head, I realized it was Yuko. She had her head down and her lips pursed, looking like she was about to cry at any moment.

"Li Zhu, I'm sorry..." Her voice choked with emotion.

Yuko's current appearance is like that of the inconspicuous girl she used to be.

"Pfft, you silly girl, now you know how to cause trouble for others."

Li Zhu felt a bit amused and couldn't help but rub her head.

Not bad, it feels great, I feel like I could make her little head bald from all that fuss.
