Chapter 445: Watch a Movie.

Su Li blushed when she saw Xiao Luo put on her mask unceremoniously, while also euphemistically doing it because he caught a cold, then she immediately gnashed her teeth. This was a mask she had just put on therefore, it was closed to her nose and mouth. And now it was being worn by Xiao Luo and touching Xiao Luo’s own nose and mouth… Basically an indirect… (kiss).

If it were done by another person instead of Xiao Luo, she would’ve instantly slapped him across the face already. This was obviously taking advantage of her. However, although it was Xiao Luo who made this move, she still found it a little hard to take in. Technically, they were only married in name, but still, they had not had any physical relations.  For this reason, the two of them were still more or less strangers.

Luo Pingxiang also paused, she then covered her mouth and giggled, “Mr. Xiao Luo looks really good in this mask!”

“Where are you looking at? What lies are you going to spout with your eyes wide open again?”  Su Li reprimanded her angrily, then her eyes fell back to Xiao Luo.

She reached out her hand and asked for the mask. “Give it back!”

Her face was flushed with embarrassment, her ears flushed red. She couldn’t possibly tell him that she accidentally left a little bit of spit on her mask, could she?

“Miss Su, don’t be so stingy. I’ll just borrow it quickly. I won’t damage it.” Xiao Luo coughed.

Borrow?

Won’t damage it?

Su Li froze and straightened her back in consternation, she felt that Xiao Luo was intentionally doing this. He certainly didn’t catch a cold and was just lying. But why does he want to wear her mask?  Is this a mask fetish?

She directly voiced her thoughts and asked point blank, “Do you have a fetish for masks?”

A black line immediately extended down on Xiao Luo’s face, he rebuked instantly, “Love my *ss!”

He didn’t want to deceive Su Li, he explained, “I know the students at that table so I have to wear your mask because I am afraid that they will recognize me and come and say hello. If I am alone, it doesn’t matter but you, Su Li the star, is here. They will definitely recognize you when they come over. When they start clamouring over, do you think that this dinner can still be enjoyed?”

Su Li turned her head and looked in the direction Xiao Luo was referring to and sure enough, she saw a table filled with young and fresh faces, including both boys and girls. They should be students that came out for dinner. Confirming that Xiao Luo was telling the truth, she finally turned around and said at the end, “Just don’t put saliva on the mask!”

Although she was very reluctant, she also couldn’t possibly take it away from him now that she knew what it was for. She could only agree and give in.

“Don’t worry, I’ll buy you a new one later.” Xiao Luo whispered.

Su Li also thought that it made sense. It was really better to buy a new one. She couldn’t possibly wear it after Xiao Luo, that would be too embarrassing. In that case, what was the difference between this and indirect kissing?

She said to Luo Pingxiang, “Pingxiang, go somewhere nearby and buy one for me now.”

“Okay sister.”

As an assistant, Luo Pingxiang was used to doing these things (errands). When they would be away from home, her task was not only to tend to Su Li, but also to ensure that Su Li’s identity would not be discovered by the public and causing unnecessary trouble.

When Luo Pingxiang left, Xiao Luo thought that it would be better to be more cautious hence, he turned his back on Guan Yilin and their group.

After thinking about it, he stood up and then sat down in Luo Pingxiang’s place. Luo Pingxiang was sitting with Su Li so now he and Su Li were sitting together. Apart from Su Li’s shocked expression, Su Bei, who was now sitting alone in the opposite seat, was also stunned and asked with her pair of innocent big eyes, “Dad, Beibei is sitting here alone.”

The implication was that he left Beibei to sit with her mother.

“Don’t worry, father and mother are here. When sister Pingxiang comes back, she will sit with you.” Xiao Luo consoled.

The little girl pouted as tears were on the verge of falling down her face. She sobbed, “Does Dad not love Beibei?”

Xiao Luo felt a headache coming so quickly comforted her, “No, Dad loves Beibei, always. Dad is just playing an ‘adult game’ with mother so don’t cry.”

“Well…”

Su Bei tried to suppress the brewing tears in her eyes but her two round eyes were still watery and red.

Xiao Luo actually had to comfort both the big and the small Su’s.

Xiao Luo pretended to be calm, he took off his mask and coughed as he reminded them, “Our food is coming.”

However, the waiter just graciously passed them, it turned out that the food was not for them.

Uh…

Xiao Luo felt embarrassed and decided to tease Su Bei in order to feel less awkward. He stretched out his hand and pinched Su Bei’s little nose and face, then patted her head while the latter seemed to enjoy it.

“Hum.”

Su Li snorted as she took her gaze from Xiao Luo. This was her own way in acquiescing Xiao Luo sitting next to her. It looked a bit unnatural, after all, they were sitting so close to each other. She could easily smell the faint unique scent of this man from this distance.

By the time Luo Pingxiang bought the mask, all the side dishes and ingredients were also brought out and were stewing.

As soon as the lid was opened, the fragrant smell escaped and wafted through their noses, increasing their appetite. Xiao Luo picked a shrimp, chicken legs and beef for Su Bei’s bowl, and said, “Beibei is still growing so you need to eat more meat.”

“Okay dad.”  Su Bei nodded cleverly. She looked even cuter with a napkin around her neck.

“The taste is very good, and there are also vegetarian dishes. The hodgepodge is oily but not greasy, and it tastes particularly refreshing. This restaurant recommended by Mr. Xiao Luo is really good.” Luo Pingxiang praised Xiao Luo after tasting the dishes.

Xiao Luo only responded with a smile and said nothing.

“Praise the food in this shop and not him, it’s not like he prepared it.” Su Li didn’t forget to throw cold water on Xiao Luo.

Xiao Luo: “…”

……

……

After eating dinner, they strolled around Huijin Building to digest their food. They also booked four movie tickets. It was an educational animation movie from abroad, which was very suitable for children and adults to watch together. Xiao Luo didn’t encounter Guan Yilin again.

As soon as they arrived at the cinema, Su Bei became more excited. Her big eyes looked at the huge silver screen unblinkingly. She didn’t have much immunity to animation movies.

“Su Bei, don’t be too loud even if you feel happy later, okay?” Su Li did not forget to teach Su Bei some manners.

“Why, Mom?” Su Bei didn’t understand.

Su Li replied, “In any public place, you can’t only care about yourself, you should also consider the people around you. If you are too loud, it will affect other people’s movie going experience.  You need to be responsible. So if you did that unintentionally, you have to say sorry to them.”

“Ok, I know, I won’t shout.” Su Bei listened to Su Li.

Xiao Luo patted her head to show encouragement and praise.

At the beginning of the movie, there was a noise constantly coming from the front rows. It was a man who was making a loud phone call. And even after the noisy phone call, he held a big cup of popcorn and ate it while bursting into laughter from time to time. He then took another phone call and also took a picture at the screen. He wanted to send that to his friends, but he completely ignored the movie-watching experience of the people around him, and it created a lot of dissatisfaction.

“Dad, didn’t mom say you can’t shout in the cinema?” Su Bei leaned over to Xiao Luo and whispered in his ear.

Su Li coughed a few times. If it weren’t for the dim light in the cinema, they would have seen her cheeks turning red at the moment. She was very embarrassed. At the same time, she stared at the man in the front row rather indignantly.

“Maybe he forgot, so Dad will remind him.”

Xiao Luo smiled, he stretched out his hand towards the back of the man’s seat, and a force penetrated through the seat itself and struck into the man’s back acupuncture point. The man who was cheering and laughing with his blaring voice moments ago immediately turned immobile and silent. He was still keeping the standard viewing posture so no one noticed any anomalies.
