Chapter 131 Watching a Movie Together

“That’s more like it,” Gu Ai replied.

After dinner, Ji Yan stayed at the Ning residence for a while longer, and Ning Anyuan returned in the afternoon.

"Everyone's here," Ning Anyuan said as he walked in from the doorway.

Ning Anyuan saw Ji Yan sitting on the sofa and said, "Things are really different now. You come here whenever you have time. I didn't see you coming to my house so often before."

Ji Yan smiled without saying a word.

Ning Anyuan walked over, poured himself a glass of water, took a sip, and said, "Perfect timing! Let's go shopping for New Year's goods together these next couple of days, and while we're at it, let's prepare a wedding gift for Fang Nan."

Ji Yan nodded: "Yes, that's exactly what I was thinking."

……

Ji Yan did not eat dinner at Ning's residence. An Hui said that there were guests at home, so Ji Yan went home instead.

Ji Yan's movie was released in the last two days, and its popularity was already quite high, so the box office has soared even more.

Promotional clips for "The Secret" were playing on large screens on many high-rise buildings, and several actors and movie-related terms also trended on social media.

Ji Yan received several business collaborations and three variety show offers, but she didn't consider them. She only accepted an interview about her role in "The Secret," because other actors from the movie were also invited.

There were still a few days until the Chinese New Year, and this interview took place on the third day after the holiday. At that time, Fang Nan's wedding was still more than a week away, so there was still time.

Over the next few days, Ning Yi went with Ning Anyuan and Ji Yan to prepare for the New Year. Ning Anyuan told her that Lu Yuzhu would be going home to celebrate the New Year with her father and the others this year.

However, Lu Yuzhu will come when Fang Nan gets married.

The Lunar New Year has finally arrived again.

Everyone sat at the table and raised their glasses. Ji Shaoliang took a sip of his drink and said cheerfully, "Great! Last year we were all worried that our children weren't thinking about marriage, but this year the problem has been solved so easily."

Ning Jian also drank two glasses and then said, "I never imagined our two families would become in-laws."

Ning Yi couldn't help but turn her head to look at Ji Yan, and at that moment Ji Yan also turned his head to look at her.

The two looked at each other, their hearts churning with inexplicable emotions. Last year, they were still meeting secretly, but now they could do it openly.

Ning Yi suddenly felt her left hand warm up. She looked down and saw that Ji Yan's hand was taking hers from under the table.

She opened her eyes slightly and said in a low voice, "What are you doing? There are so many people here."

Ji Yan also lowered his voice and said, "It's alright, they won't find out."

Then he gripped her hand even tighter.

Ning Yi felt a little uncomfortable, but could only pretend that nothing had happened and continue eating with her right hand.

Let's just keep holding hands.

After dinner, Gu Ai made a video call to her grandmother, and they chatted with her for a while.

Ji Yan peeled a longan and held it to Ning Yi's lips. Ning Yi ate it, and Gu Ai, who was standing nearby, couldn't help but say, "Seeing how well you two get along, I'm relieved."

An Hui patted her shoulder and said with a smile, "You still don't trust our Xiao Yan? If Xiao Yan treats Xiao Yi badly in the future, I'll be the first to beat him up."

Gu Ai smiled and looked down: "Okay, okay, at least she's someone I know well."

After playing together for a while, Ji Yan went home with An Hui and the others.

After Ningyi and everyone else tidied up the house, she went back to her room to wash up.

After Ning Yi finished showering, she went to the bedside table, took the bag on it, and opened it. Inside was a beautiful necklace, a New Year's gift from Ji Yan.

She picked up her phone and called Ji Yan, who answered the phone shortly afterward.

"You miss me already?" Ji Yan's pleasant and deep voice came from the other end of the phone.

Ning Yi couldn't help but smile: "Yeah, you're home now? What are you doing?"

Ji Yan replied, "I just finished showering. What about you?"

Ning Yi replied, "I just finished showering too."

After a couple of seconds, Ning Yi added, "It's so nice to have a relationship that's accepted by family."

“Speaking of which, it’s fortunate that I have your brother,” Ji Yan replied.

Ning Yi thought for a moment and then said, "What's even more fortunate is that I didn't give up back then."

Ji Yan chuckled softly: "Well, it's good that you didn't give up."

Ning Yi suddenly remembered something and said, "Your new movie is out, and I haven't seen it yet. How about we go see it together sometime?"

Ji Yan replied, "Okay, are you going to visit relatives tomorrow?"

Ning Yi said, "My mom said we're going to a cousin's house tomorrow, and then we're going to an aunt's house in the afternoon."

Ji Yan thought for a moment and then said, "How about we go together the day after tomorrow?"

“Okay, but you’ll have to leave again in a couple of days, right? You have to go to an interview,” Ning Yi continued.

"Yes, but I'll be back in a few days," Ji Yan replied.

They chatted on the phone for a while longer before reluctantly hanging up.

Ning Yi tossed and turned in bed, unable to sleep. She felt that everything was so happy and unreal. She logged onto Weibo again. A few days ago, she listened to Tang Ziyin and turned this Weibo account into her public account. Recently, some people have started following her. Some of them were recommended by Tang Ziyin, who said that it would be helpful for her to apply for a verified account in a while.

In her Weibo account, besides following Tang Ziyin and several people involved in violin-related work, she also follows Ji Yan.

She slowly clicked on Ji Yan's profile and discovered that he had recently gained a lot more followers. His latest Weibo post read: Happy New Year [with picture]

The picture is a photo of the reunion dinner at Ning's residence. Below, many fans sent their blessings, and there were also some comments from other celebrities.

She clicked on some more topics related to Ji Yan; he had indeed been getting a lot of attention lately.

Looking at these things, she felt even more that she should work harder and strive to shine in her area of ​​expertise so that she could stand shoulder to shoulder with him.

……

Ning Yi went with them to visit relatives and received quite a few red envelopes.

When the day arrived that he had arranged to watch a movie with Ji Yan, he went to the cinema in advance and booked the entire theater so that he wouldn't have to worry about it being too crowded.

Ji Yan bought popcorn, a snack, and a drink for Ning Yi, and then took Ning Yi into the venue.

He pulled Ning Yi to sit in the back row because Ning Yi liked to sit in the back, saying that it was more comfortable to look at things from there.

The lights are off now, and the movie is about to start.

Ji Yan placed the food in the middle and personally took two kernels of popcorn, handing them to Ning Yi's lips.

Ning Yi ate it and then said, "The movie is about to start."

Then, the movie officially began.

"I'm so excited! Is this a good guy? I heard online that there are quite a few plot twists," Ning Yi said, pointing to the man in the opening clip of a show that was playing.

Ji Yan spoke up: "He's a good person, but at first everyone thought he was bad."

Ning Yi nodded and was about to ask another question when she suddenly shut her mouth.

"Is there anything else you want to ask?" Ji Yan asked.

Ning Yi shook her head and said in a low voice, "Don't spoil it for me. I want to watch it myself and figure it out slowly."

Ji Yan chuckled softly, "Alright."
