Guo Xinyu, for the first time in her life, was watching a movie alone with a boy, and that boy happened to be the one she liked. This subtle atmosphere made it nearly impossible for her to focus on the movie. She kept sneaking glances at Fang Jueyu with the corner of her eye. His perfectly chiseled profile, courtesy of genetic optimization, was downright lethal to a girl's heart. The sofa was almost five or six meters wide, yet they sat so closely together they could even catch whiffs of each other's scents. "If only time could freeze at this moment, maybe that wouldn't be so bad!" Guo Xinyu's lips curled into a slight smile. In the dim light, the young couple harbored their own little thoughts; it seemed that this was what youth truly felt like. Gradually, Fang Jueyu managed to pull his attention away from Guo Xinyu and became engrossed in the movie. Suddenly, Guo Xinyu's head rested directly on his shoulder. In that moment, Fang Jueyu's body turned as stiff as if it was under a spell. "Thump, thump!" His heart had never raced this intensely before. It was also the first time he realized what it meant to have a mind go blank. He didn't even dare to move an inch, as if any movement might cost him something precious. "Your heart is beating so fast!" Even though it was just the two of them there, Guo Xinyu spoke in a voice only they could hear. "I... I'm nervous..." Fang Jueyu stuttered, at a loss for words. He didn't expect Guo Xinyu to be bolder than him. This palpable excitement was something he'd never felt before, both delightful and pure. Guo Xinyu gave a cute smile. Despite Fang Jueyu's wealth, which could draw countless girls to him, his reaction showed he lacked much experience in love. The rapid heartbeat was something he couldn't fake or hide. "Is my head too heavy?" "No! How heavy can one head be?" Fang Jueyu couldn't feel her head's weight because his own head was buzzing loudly, and he felt almost numb. "Should I put my arm around her?" Fang Jueyu awkwardly found his arm trapped between their bodies. He wanted to pull it out, but feared his movement would upset Guo Xinyu. "Host, are you an idiot? She's made it so obvious. Do you want her to make the first move?" Xiao Yi chastised Fang Jueyu in his head, "You're so disappointing!" "Fine, I'll hug her. Do you think I won't dare?" Steeling his nerve, Fang Jueyu pulled out his right arm and draped it over Guo Xinyu's shoulder. He felt her body tremble slightly and heard her heart pounding like a galloping deer. The soft sensation from his palm sparked some misguided thoughts and impulses in Fang Jueyu. Gradually, they refocused on the movie, maintaining their pose for almost an hour, neither daring to move first, as if any movement would shatter the beautiful atmosphere. As the movie drew to an end, the storyline became more emotionally stirring. Accompanied by romantic background music, the movie's main characters were passionately kissing. In such an atmosphere, some couples in the theater couldn't help but embrace one another. In the last row's couple seating, several young pairs were locked in kisses, but of course, Fang Jueyu and Guo Xinyu couldn't see them. Their cheeks felt a bit warm, and in this ambiance, it was impossible not to have some romantic thoughts. Fang Jueyu suddenly came up with a bold idea; he wanted to do something! He turned his head and saw Guo Xinyu's bright, large eyes gazing at him, her eyelashes trembling slightly, and a deep affection in her eyes. This scene made Fang Jueyu's throat dry. He slowly leaned toward Guo Xinyu, and at that moment, both of their breaths quickened, and they instinctively closed their eyes. With the romantic atmosphere, sweet background music, they could only feel each other's intense breath. Guo Xinyu felt an arm gently wrap around her waist, while another hand softly caressed her hair. The tense, stiff body relaxed, surrendering control to her heart... After what seemed an eternity, their lips parted, and Guo Xinyu lowered her head, her cheeks blushing scarlet. The last time she had secretly kissed Fang Jueyu, it was her first kiss with a boy, but this time... Suddenly, she felt her hand being tightly grasped. Fang Jueyu looked at her with a serious expression. "Xin... Xinyu, would you be with me?" Fang Jueyu spoke nervously, his words faltering. It seemed he had never handled such matters with composure. "Mm!" Guo Xinyu quietly responded, her voice as soft as a mosquito's hum. Under the dim light, they saw each other's faces flush with shyness and happiness, and then they kissed again... The movie ended, and only after everyone else had left did they emerge from the theater holding hands. Their hearts were already in mutual understanding, with only the need for a formal gesture. When Fang Jueyu spoke up, everything naturally fell into place. "From now on, the Qixi Festival every year will be our anniversary!" Fang Jueyu said, "I mentioned earlier about getting you a gift, and you said it wasn't fitting. Will you accept my gift now?" Guo Xinyu shyly nodded, "But you can't spend recklessly!" "Ha ha, don't worry. Even if we had endless generations, I would never run out of money!" "As if! Who wants endless generations with you!" Guo Xinyu playfully smacked his shoulder with a laugh. Fang Jueyu glanced at Guo Xinyu, noticing something missing around her snowy white neck. "Let's go check out the accessories store downstairs!" Fang Jueyu said, taking her down. Bai Da Plaza mainly consisted of middle to high-end shops. The store they walked into was a jewelry shop, a brand he'd heard of before, renowned for a century, offering both modern jewelry and traditional pieces. "I wonder if this store is mine," Fang Jueyu mumbled. "Sorry, Host, but this is one of the few stores not part of your business empire. You finally get a chance to spend money!" "Hello, sir, are you looking for a gift for your girlfriend?" "Yes, I'd like to see some necklaces," Fang Jueyu nodded. "What price range are you considering?" The service staff glanced at Fang Jueyu's outfit. Although it bore no brand, she could tell from its style and fabric that it wasn't some bargain item. "The price doesn't matter, as long as my girlfriend likes it." On hearing this, the sales associate's eyes lit up. They loved customers who prioritized preference over price. The jewelry here ranged from a few thousand to millions. Selling a high-ticket item would be quite a commission. "This way, please. Let me recommend this piece. It's the latest work of our senior designer, a platinum necklace with a one-carat diamond and ruby accents. Your girlfriend will love it!" Fang Jueyu glanced at the price tag, 270,000. For everyday people, it was an absolute luxury. S~eaʀᴄh the ηovelFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Xinyu, do you like it?" Fang Jueyu asked. Seeing the price, Guo Xinyu's brows furrowed. She knew Fang Jueyu was wealthy, but spending hundreds of thousands on a necklace was something she couldn't do. Besides, she didn't particularly like the necklace. One look at Guo Xinyu's expression, and Fang Jueyu knew her answer. He surveyed the necklaces on the counter, none of which caught his eye. Suddenly, his gaze landed on a necklace in the store's display case. At first sight, he knew this necklace was perfect for Guo Xinyu, and she'd absolutely love it!
