Chapter 486: On A Date With Su Bei
Lu Heting put his finger on his thin lips. The happiness he felt was too short.
There was not even an aftertaste.
He bent down and said in a low, hoa.r.s.e voice, “I’ll unpack the things.”
“Okay, you can do it.” Su Bei stood up and picked up her cup of coffee again.
It was no longer hot, but she still held it as if it was a treasure.
The speed at which Lu Heting unpacked the luggage was incredibly fast, and all his movements were neat. In just a short while, he had finished unpacking.
He guessed that Su Bei’s coffee had turned cold by now and she had drunk half of it. Hence, Lu Heting took the cup out of her hand.
“Do you want to drink it?” Su Bei hurriedly handed it to him. It was only then she remembered he had only bought one cup. He must not have bought one for himself because he thought he would not be able to carry the luggage afterward. “I forgot to ask you just now. Let me go and boil some hot water for you.”
“No, just this will do.” Lu Heting never wanted to drink coffee in the first place. It was not good to drink coffee now because of their jet lag. He just did not want her to drink the coffee that had turned cold. He was also afraid that she would drink too much of it.
Thus, he drank the remaining half.
As a result, both he and Su Bei could not fall asleep despite their jet lag.
The two of them had unpacked their luggage, taken a shower, and eaten a little. They were both in good spirits.
It was already late at night in the United States, but he and Su Bei were still in high spirits.
“I can’t sleep. Let’s talk.” Su Bei sat Lu Heting down on the sofa. She had bought a lot of things for him and wanted to present them to him, but she was afraid that she would expose herself by doing so. Hence, she did not say anything.
She poured a gla.s.s of warm water for Lu Heting and put it in his hand. Then, she handed him the keys and said, “I bought this house with my own money, and I’m giving you a copy of the keys. Don’t lose it. I’m already clumsy enough. Let’s try to avoid coming back one day only to stare blankly at each other while standing in front of the door.”
“Okay.” Lu Heting put it away solemnly.
As they could not sleep, the two of them continued to chat.
The more they talked, the less sleepy they got.
Su Bei was fine. She just wanted to spend her last moments with him.
However, it was different for Lu Heting. He was looking at the woman he had been thinking about all this while and the wife he had married. This time, Da Bao and Gun Gun were not around to interrupt them. He was feeling a little nervous.
His eyes darkened.
However, he did not want to scare her. He did not feel sleepy at all, but his voice was hoa.r.s.e.
“Why don’t we go and watch midnight movies? They always show many cla.s.sic movies. Are you interested?”
“Sure.” Lu Heting stood up.
Compared to an old couple who spoke to each other bluntly, he preferred the way they were now.
Su Bei was familiar with everything here, so she brought Lu Heting to the cinema.
Coincidentally, all the movies showing tonight were romance movies. Su Bei had no choice but to choose one of them.
In the cinema, the lights were off, casting shadows on their faces.
There were very few people in the cinema, so Su Bei could focus on watching the movie while eating popcorn.
Lu Heting did not like sweets, including popcorn.
Even so, he would reach out his hand to grab a few from time to time. Occasionally, he would touch her hand, but he would retrieve his hand after a quick touch.
This small joy made him feel like he was a young boy in love.
It could be considered that he was on a date with Su Bei now, right?

Lu Heting: “Do you want to be in a relations.h.i.+p? The kind that will last a lifetime?”
