Chapter 184: 187 Goodbye, Ex

He seemed to be in a good mood, as Song Lili sat in the passenger seat beside him, listening to his usual soliloquy and laughed along with him.

The laugh, however, was caught by Lu Ziqing, "Besides... you wouldn’t be unwilling, right?"

"Brother Lu, there are conditions for me joining you to see the movie."

"Oh?"

"I’ll tell you after we’ve watched the movie."

Song Lili wasn’t foolish, if she didn’t take advantage of his good mood to set her terms now, when would she?

Lu Ziqing raised an eyebrow, "Fine, we’ll talk after the movie then."

There is a small shopping mall in the central area of Luoshu County, equipped with everything including a cinema and KTV.

Previously, Song Lili had driven Tang Xiaocao there a couple of times, shopped for clothes in the mall, and wandered around the amusement arcade. Tang Xiaocao seemed like an ignorant little fool, finding everything new and others bewildering, while other kids their age might not recognize many characters but could operate the arcade machines with ease.

After parking the car, Lu Ziqing took off his jacket, revealing a very ordinary dark shirt underneath. His military trousers were eye-catching, but with the shirt untucked, along with Lu Ziqing’s indescribable indecorous aura after shedding his military uniform, ordinary people really wouldn’t guess his identity.

Song Lili had already changed out of her uniform when she left the military district, now wearing just a thin sweater with a pair of jeans.

"What movie are we watching today?"

After entering the cinema, Lu Ziqing went to get the tickets, which was when Song Lili remembered to ask.

Lu Ziqing handed her the ticket, then went to the snack bar to buy popcorn and drinks.

Song Lili looked at the movie ticket in her hand—

She stiffened a bit, her throat suddenly dry...

"Let’s go, I heard this movie just premiered two days ago, and both its reputation and box office are quite impressive. You must be dying of boredom being in the military all day, aren’t you?"

"...It’s alright."

Lu Ziqing chuckled, handed her the popcorn, and with two drinks in his hands, sat down in the rest area to wait for the movie to start.

"Brother Lu..."

"Hm?"

"Do you know... what this movie is about?"

"It’s not hard to guess, is it? ’Goodbye, Ex’... It’s all about properly saying goodbye to the past and starting a new life, right?"

Lu Ziqing declared confidently.

Indeed, the movie had a good reputation, but it had been Lu Ziqing’s own choice, thinking its title seemed quite fitting for Song Lili!

The relationship between Wen Nian and Song Lili had always been ambiguous yet complex.

Lu Ziqing could only think of one connection between them: both Wen Nian and Lili had lived in the military compound in Ruicheng.

But when Lu Ziqing decided to invite Song Lili to the movies and was choosing the film, he had an epiphany when he saw ’Ex, Goodbye’!

Only the persistent status of "ex" could explain President Wen Nian’s various actions!

This movie is great!

Goodbye, Ex!

Isn’t it all about properly saying farewell to one’s ex and then broadening your horizons to start a new romance...

At the movie’s climax, when it inevitably evokes joy and reflections, he didn’t believe Song Lili wouldn’t have any thoughts if she found herself sitting next to him!

Lu Ziqing was quite pleased with himself at this thought, feeling very clever.

"Brother Lu, do you realize... this movie is most suitable to watch with an ex?"

"...What?"

Lu Ziqing was momentarily stunned, but didn’t think much of it and continued drinking.

He glanced at Song Lili, noticing her gaze flitting about distantly...

"Watching it with an ex might lead to a reunion, but watching with a current partner, it might lead to a breakup."

"Phew—"

A mouthful of cola sprayed out completely!
