New Year's Day.

Six o'clock in the evening.

In a small western-style building on the outskirts of the magical city.

"Xiaojie, where are you going to change clothes now?"

Wearing square-rimmed glasses and looking about [-] or [-] years old, the girl replied while putting on her shoes: "I'm going out to eat."

"Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, are you going out to eat?" The man with the Chinese character face who was sitting on the sofa and watching the replay of last night's Spring Festival Gala also asked.

The girl quickly explained: "I made an appointment with someone.".

Hear this.

The old couple looked at each other, and my mother quickly stepped forward and asked, "Who is it? Male or female?"

"male."

The girl named Xiaojie is called Zhan Wenjie. She has a Ph.D. and is now a teacher at Jiaotong University. Because of her high academic qualifications and high IQ, and she has been working in the university, there has been no news about her relationship.

At the age of twenty-eight, she was considered an older leftover daughter. The old couple had been urging marriage for many years, so when they heard that their daughter was going out to have dinner with someone, instead of feeling bad, the two of them looked happy.

"Good man, good man, what kind of sneakers are you wearing? Don't you have a pair of boots? You look good in those boots."

Zhan Wenjie said helplessly: "Those boots are not as comfortable as sneakers."

"You kid, just bear with it if you feel uncomfortable. No girl wears sneakers when going out on a date."

"Mom, it's just a meal and a movie. What kind of date? I haven't even decided on my horoscope yet."

Mom quickly asked: "Why, are you dissatisfied with him?"

Zhan Wenjie said truthfully: "His conditions are good, but his interests and hobbies are different. I am a physics major and have no interest in science fiction movies, but he insists on taking me to watch science fiction movies."

"Why are you kid so stubborn? Academics are academics and entertainment is entertainment. How can you still get them involved?" Dad also spoke at this time.

Mom quickly echoed: "That's right, since you are willing to go out with him, it means that you still have a good impression of him. How can people have exactly the same interests and hobbies? Relationships are inherently mutually accommodating. You..."

"Okay, okay, stop talking." Zhan Wenjie glanced at the phone and said quickly: "He is already waiting for me downstairs. I have to go down."

"Okay, then you can go."

Zhan Wenjie put on her boots anyway, grabbed a bag and hurried downstairs.

The moment Zhan Wenjie closed the door and went out, the old couple hurried to the window and stared at the black Volkswagen car in front of their house.

Seeing a gentle boy about [-] meters tall getting out of the car, my mother said happily: "This young man looks good."

"Ah."

"I hope it can happen this time. Mr. Li next door will embrace his granddaughter. If Xiaojie doesn't get married, I won't be able to help her take care of the child when I get old."

……

Seven o'clock in the evening.

Shao Yang and Shao Yuer drove two cars to the entrance of the cinema.

At this moment, the cinema was packed with people, all waiting to get in and watch the movie.

"There are so many people, you won't be recognized."

"It's okay, there are so many of us, we shouldn't be recognized." As he said that, Shao Yang put on a mask and a hat, opened the car door, and took the family to the cinema.

Shao Yang walked to the front desk, glanced at the work badges on the chests of the theater staff, and said directly: "Hello, my surname is Shao."

The man with the manager sign on his chest glared and said immediately: "Mr. Shao, please come with me."

The theater manager brought a group of people from Shaoyang into a movie hall, pointed to the big screen and said: "This movie will be played at [-]:[-]. Please wait a moment, Mr. Shao."

"Okay, thank you."

Liu Hongyu held her granddaughter's hand and sat down in the third row. Shao Yang arranged for his parents and Xue Qi to sit in the middle of the third row, which had the best viewing position.

He took Xue Jiajia and Shao Yuer and sat in the fourth row.

"There are so many places. If I had known, I would have called a few more people over."

Xue Jiajia said: "Qin Yuhan and Xu Liang are getting married in the first month and have no time. Cheng Tingting has to take care of the children at home and has no time. Shen Shuhua and her husband went to the capital to celebrate the New Year. Who else can we call besides them?"

"Too."

There were still ten minutes left before the movie started. Shao Yang had just taken out his mobile phone to check Weibo for a while, when Liu Hongyu suddenly said: "Shao Yang, go buy a bucket of popcorn for Niu Niu."

Xue Jiajia said: "I'd better go."

Xue Jiajia was afraid that Shaoyang would be recognized. After all, there were many people outside.

Shao Yang smiled and said: "It's okay, I'll go, I just need to go to the toilet."

"Then pay attention."

Shao Yang got up and walked outside, and found that the ticket check outside was almost over, and there were not many people left in the lobby.

Shao Yang went to the toilet first. After coming out, he walked to the front desk and said, "Hello, bring me five pieces of popcorn."

"Would you like a Coke?"

"No, just popcorn."

"Fifty in total, scan the QR code here." The staff did not recognize Shaoyang when Shaoyang scanned the QR code to pay.

A man and a woman came to the front desk. The man took out his mobile phone and asked: "Hello, give me two movie tickets for "The Wandering Earth"."

"Sorry, the movie tickets were sold out yesterday."

"sold out?"

The man looked surprised: "Aren't there two of them?"

"Sorry sir, it's sold out."

Zhan Wenjie frowned.

The man explained in a panic: "Well... I just returned to China not long ago, and I didn't expect that I wouldn't be able to buy movie tickets. I'm sorry."

Zhang Wenjie shook his head and said: "It's okay... let's do it next time. I'm not interested in science fiction movies either."

"But..." The man obviously didn't want this first date to end like this. He said, "Maybe there will be scalpers at the door. Let me go and ask."

At this time, three girls who looked to be in their early twenties passed by. After hearing the man's words, one of the girls said: "Don't ask, the tickets in the scalpers' hands have been sold out. You can still buy them online now." Tickets to the day after tomorrow.”

Shao Yang listened to the conversation between several people and did not expect that movie tickets would be so difficult to buy.

Seeing the man's self-reproaching expression and the three girls who also looked disappointed for not buying tickets, Shaoyang took the popcorn and said to them: "You guys come with me."

"Do you have a ticket?"

"No, but I've reserved the venue."

"what!"

The three girls screamed, and Zhou Sicheng and Zhan Wenjie, who had just returned from college abroad, were also surprised.

Shao Yang quickly turned around and made a silencing gesture to them. They looked at each other and finally nodded.

Shao Yang then took them back to the private theater.

"Wow~"

As soon as they walked in and saw that there were many empty seats inside, the three little girls couldn't help but exclaimed.

Shao Yang handed the popcorn to his mother-in-law, then turned around and took off his mask and said, "You can find a seat and sit down. Just keep quiet, and don't spread the news that I am here."

"Shao! Shaoyang!!!"

The five of them were all confused. They were quite disappointed because they had not bought tickets. Unexpectedly, they bumped into Shao Yang and were taken to the movie theater that he had reserved to watch a movie.

Several people found seats and sat down excitedly. Xue Jiajia also asked at this time: "Who are they?"

"They were all spectators who had not bought movie tickets. I happened to see them and brought them over."

"Oh."

"That's right." Shao Yang smiled and said, "You five... remember to give me some feedback after you watch the movie."

The boldest girl smiled and said: "No problem, as long as Brother Yang you can take a photo with me later and let me write a review."

"Ha ha, alright."
