The evening breeze in early June is warm, like cotton wool drying in the sun, wrapping you up and making you feel comfortable all over.

Chen Shizi hasn't been shopping for a long time.

After leaving the hospital at 3 o'clock, she spent 2000 yuan to buy a particularly bright red dress with straps, which looked sharp and mature. She spent another 500 yuan to find a makeup store to put on a bright makeup. She stood in front of the glass door of the mall and looked for a long time, wearing white high heels that she had never worn before.

She asked a makeup artist to make her look more radiant, but the artist parted her long bangs in the middle and brushed them to the sides, revealing her round and fair forehead. She also put four parallel rhinestone hairpins on the sides of her ears, which made her look like a Korean girl group makeup. She was also given asymmetrical beautiful berry-colored rhinestone ear clips to match her skirt. She was so gorgeous that Chen Shizi couldn't bear to look at her. It seemed like she was going to perform on the stage any second. Her arms, legs and back were not arms, and it was like she was not wearing any clothes.

She was a little confused, but she also felt that things she had never tried were indeed beautiful. With a slight smile on her lips, her whole body exuded a charming and alluring charm, with strong colors, yet melancholy and coldness, which was very eye-catching.

She was looking in front of the glass door, and someone came up to her and asked for her WeChat.

She said her phone was out of battery, in a clumsy and direct way.

After saying sorry in a dry and hurried manner, without any psychological burden, Chen Shizi walked briskly, like a heroine in a movie, carrying a dazzling bag, strolling in the crowded commercial street, eating ice cream, spicy strips, candied haws, and bowl-shaped cakes... playing video games and playing lottery machines with children.

She wants to steal the wonderful joy of strangers.

Pretend it's yours and go to the movies happily.

Go find Wang Xufeng.

***

Several foreign movies were being shown in the cinema. She watched a very famous historical film, "Kingdom of Heaven". She had seen it before on her mobile phone. It was about several famous battles fought between the Knights Templar and the Muslims for Jerusalem during the Crusades. Chen Shizi really liked the Leper King in the film.

The protagonist never shows his face throughout the whole film. He wears a silver mask because of his disfigurement due to illness, but his elegant and brutal temperament is so handsome, and the villain's aura is enough to blow up the universe.

Chen Shizi felt that this comment hit her heart directly. She watched the whole movie in the cinema with squinted eyes and a smile, staring at the screen like a little pervert.

The cinema was pitch black. It was a weekday and it was not yet time to get off work, so there were very few people.

Chen Shizi sat in an empty row, and there was someone sitting diagonally in front of him, a young girl with a cute bun. The two of them sat close to each other, but they both stared at the screen in silence.

Suddenly, the girl in the front row took out her cell phone, as if she was checking the time.

A bright light in the darkness attracted Chen Shizi's attention for a moment.

But my heart skipped a beat.

Staring at the girl's mobile phone screen, Chen Shizi's eyes were shocked. He frowned and his expression gradually became gloomy and depressed. After a long time, his eyes suddenly became bright and firm.

In the pitch-black theater, those beautiful almond eyes shone like two stars.

In the gloomy medieval scene, the movie on the screen happened to be showing the Leper King and the male protagonist discussing the marriage of his sister. In the dark bedroom, the dim candlelight flickered alternately. The Leper King talked about his life and death in a half-dead elegant tone. He walked lazily by the candlelight with a silver mask on, raising his chin nonchalantly, arrogantly and oppressively, and calmly arranged his own affairs after his death.

【I won a battle when I was 16.】

【At that time, I thought I could live to be 100 years old.】

【Now I know I won’t live past thirty.】

……

"Wow~ So handsome, he looks glowing even with a sack on." Chen Shizi praised to himself, his peripheral vision always keeping an eye on the girls in the front row.

As expected, the other party turned his head away, raised his eyebrows, but said nothing.

Chen Shizi saw clearly that the girl was very pretty and sweet, in her early 20s, with extremely intelligent eyes and was very alert.

She raised her lips in satisfaction, rested her chin on the back of the front seat with both hands, and continued to watch Baldwin IV (the Leper King) in the movie with an obsessive look on her face. Every ten minutes or so, she couldn't help but exclaim in admiration, showing her extraordinary patience.

More than an hour later, the girl finally couldn't help it, because the Leper King was dead! She turned her head and looked into the eyes of Chen Shizi, who couldn't help but keep praising her the whole time.

"Do you like the Leper King too? Fuck, I'm so mad!" The cute and beautiful girl burst into swearing instantly.

Chen Shizi secretly raised her eyebrows, held her chin with one hand, and smiled at the girl friendly, her eyes smiling slyly in the dark, "This is not just ordinary liking, I love him so much! I wish I could rush into the movie and be his wife who will never leave him!" The corners of her lips were raised sweetly and innocently, and her words were sweet and without bottom line, "Villains have to be so charming~ Those who are whitewashed by a reversal at the ending are not good villains! Don't you agree, sister?" She raised her chin frivolously towards the front row, very harmless and familiar.

"That's right." The girl rubbed her head heavily, "He's the only one I like in the whole play. I'm crazy about him!"

Chen Shizi laughed out loud, her smile dispelling the coldness, and tried to get closer, "Sister, my phone is out of battery and is charging. Can you help me check what time it is? I have an appointment."

The girl quickly turned on her phone.

As soon as the screen lit up, a reserved and cold woman in a black suit suddenly appeared on the square screen, with a gorgeous dinner party as the background.

Chen Shizi let out a "huh~" and pretended to be surprised, raising her voice: "Isn't this my former boss?" She looked at the girl in the front row and added, "The husband of a billionaire girl~"

The girl held her breath in a snap.

Shuli said, "It's 7:30 now." His face turned a little colder.

Chen Shizi was lying on the back of the front seat in a frivolous manner, smiling with her eyes bent, as agile as a lazy cat, "My former boss is simply a high-end version of the Leper King, right?" Staring at the girl's black screen phone, she raised her eyebrows frivolously and revealed the inside story: "My colleagues in the company all secretly save her photos. But she is very fierce! Everyone is afraid of her!"

The girl in the front row straightened her back immediately and defended Wang Liwu with a stern face: "As for the president, it's okay for him to have a bit of personality and temper. I've also seen him in person, he's so handsome! If I could see him every day, I would wake up laughing even in my dreams if he was scolded to death..."

"Really?" Chen Shizi raised his eyebrows in observation, "Do you like her? But she is a girl~"

The girl frowned instantly, "What era is this? Homosexuality is very common, okay? What does the relationship between two people have to do with others!"

Chen Shizi tilted his head and continued to observe, "But... her reputation is not very good~ The rumors on the Internet are very fierce~"

"I love villains so much!" The girl laughed in a paranoid manner, and her cute face could not hide her wantonness.

Chen Shizi raised another difficulty, "But she is a big CEO, ordinary people can't catch up with her at all~" Her tone was like a child who was about to lie, leading people to let down their guard and get into her rhythm.

The girl curled her lips at Chen Shizi and exhaled heavily. Her expression did not retreat but became more determined and persistent.

Chen Shizi smiled with satisfaction, and sighed on her arm, "I like this sisterly energy! Are you single now? Have you ever liked someone? Our big CEO has come out. I heard that he has someone he likes... Do you mind?"

"What does that matter!" The girl frowned, "She's my idol! I fell in love with her at first sight. I've never had a boyfriend or girlfriend. I just want to have a passionate secret crush on her!"

"Really?" Chen Shizi laughed out loud, her laughter was bitter and beautiful, her laughter was like a camellia flower that was about to be beheaded, shedding tears of blood, but she made a playful "eh" sound, raised her voice, and smiled cleverly with her head down and tears in the back row.

"You are so brave. Since we both love Leper King, I will tell you a plan. Wang Group has social recruitment. You can submit your resume! When you work in the same building, you may have a chance to meet. If you are recruited by the President's Office, you will see each other every day and have the opportunity to get along with each other."

In the darkness, tears trembled and slid down Chen Shizi's cheeks into her chin. She took a deep breath and said softly: "I heard that she has a very bad temper! She is not likable. Her work style is also cruel! But..."

The girl raised her eyebrows and listened carefully.

Chen Shizi choked up and opened her lips: "I heard...she is very good to the people she likes~"

"Really?" The girl turned her head curiously.

Chen Shizi lowered her head and pretended to look for something in her bag. Qingyang raised his voice, "It is said that she likes the kind of playmates who have been watching her since childhood and only play with her forever. I guess, if there is someone who is super super super super obsessed with her, just like he likes the Leper King, no matter if he is a villain or not, he will always be with her and never leave her! Always consistent! After a long time, maybe this person with a bad temper will be moved~"

After receiving the challenge, the girl in the front row chuckled and said bluntly: "Possessiveness? Oh, why do I love him even more..." She was eager to give it a try.

"Good luck to you, sister."

Chen Shizi sniffed quietly, smiled at the courageous girl's back in the dark back row, and slowly packed up his things to leave.

"Aren't you going to look anymore?" The girl turned around in surprise. She found that the girl behind her, who was wearing a red dress, fashionable, beautiful and talkative, had a strange light in her eyes, twinkling like stars in the dark night. She wanted to get closer to take a closer look. So she smiled friendly, "Are you really a former employee of Wang's?"

"Hmm, can this really be a lie?" Chen Shizi pursed her lips, put her bag on her knees, supported her hands on both sides of the chair, tilted her head and looked at the other person quietly with smiling eyes, feeling a strange warm pain in her heart.

"Thank you for telling me so much inside information." The girl smiled and complimented him in return, "You know what? You look a lot like Sulli from South Korea. This outfit is also very similar to the classic red dress in the movie Reality. It seems to be even better. It's so beautiful."

"Thank you." Chen Shizi said with a smile and tears in his eyes.

"Actually, I've only met Wang Liwu once. She came to my shop for breakfast half a year ago. She was covered in injuries and I almost called 110. But then the more I looked at her, the more handsome she seemed to me. I even felt sweet inside when she rejected me. If the cat abuser is really her, then she'd be a real villain, so charming!" The girl shared her story with others for the first time.

"No." Chen Shizi shook her head and recalled with a smile. Her eyes were bittersweet in the darkness, and she defined it immediately: "Not at all. She is not such a lowly villain."

"Let's go sister, bye."

Chen Shizi left the cinema, heartbroken, and in the crowded crowd, she cried. She kept walking forward, and kind girls kept handing her paper, and she took it, and walked very far away. Her makeup was smudged by her bitter tears, and she didn't look back, and walked away from the cinema.

The cinema in the mall was on the 7th floor. Suddenly, someone pushed a wheelchair towards the glass fence in the middle. Looking down from the top, you could still see a bright red berry color. The person below was bending over, pinching his chest, shaking his shoulders, and frantically wiping his face with a bunch of white paper. The four rows of rhinestone hairpins on his head were shining and dazzling on his long straight hair like crow feathers, like a guiding light shining out of thin air in a swamp, beautiful and thrilling, but the back was painful and sad. Turning through the revolving door, he was also unusually cold and resolute.

Wang Liwu stared closely, stared coldly, stared infatuatedly, stared confusedly and complicatedly, until the red disappeared into the night.
