Chapter 988: Riding the Wind and Asking the Moon-In the Snow (73)

It was a cold winter night.

Zuo Yue stood in front of the cinema and paced back and forth.

She was afraid that she would miss the opportunity to meet Xu Chengfeng, so she rushed to the hospital entrance at 6:20 pm.

It just so happened that Xu Yuan had to catch an early flight back to Los Angeles because of some urgent matters at the Zuo Corporation in Los Angeles.

Although Xu Yuan would be back in two to three days, it still created an opportunity for Zuo Yue. She took advantage of the nurses ‘shift change to sneak out of the hospital.

The cold wind was biting cold, but the people at the entrance of the cinema were coming and going like wildfire. It could be seen how many people were looking forward to this movie.

With Xu Chengfeng’s personality, he would definitely not watch those kinds of literary and romantic films. This kind of sci-fi film should more or less be to his liking, right?

Zuo Yue knew that it was not time yet, so she was not in a hurry. After standing in front of the cinema for a while, she coughed from time to time because it was too cold and her body had not recovered yet. She turned around and went into a milk tea shop nearby. She ordered a cup of hot cocoa and waited while drinking.

At 7:20 pm, there were still ten minutes left before the agreed time. Zuo Yue hurriedly put down the hot cocoa in her hand that she had only taken a few sips and walked out.

He returned to the hospital and looked around, but he did not see the familiar dark gray Porsche.

Perhaps it was just a traffic jam. Although traffic jam was rare in Boston, there were so many people and cars on the street of the cinema. What if there was a traffic jam?

At 7:30, he didn’t show up, and neither did the car.

Zuo Yue smiled. She held the movie ticket in her hand and continued to wait in front of the theater door.

There were already people who had entered the theater in groups, and many of them had bought last minute tickets to watch the movie.

At eight o’clock, Zuo Yue’s hands and feet were already frozen. She raised her hands and rubbed them. She felt that if her uncle had come a little later, she would have missed too much of the exciting content of this movie.

She turned around and bought tickets for the next movie.

The next movie was at 8:50.

After she was done, she walked to the intersection in front of the cinema and kept looking at the cars passing by.

He didn’t reply to her message at that time, but she was sure that he must have seen it.

Since there was no reply, although he did not agree, he did not reject either. He must have seen it and would definitely come.

Zuo Yue took a deep breath and stood where she was full of hope. The seats in front of the milk tea shop had been replaced by batches of people.

Zuo Yue did not want to go in again. She just wanted to stand there and wait. What if her uncle did not notice her when he came and thought that she was angry at him for being late and left first, so he turned around and left as well? What should she do then?

She was standing right here. As long as he came, he would definitely see her.

Suddenly, Zuo Yue’s phone rang. She quickly took out her phone and saw that it was a call from the hospital.

She hesitated for a moment before picking it up. The nurse’s anxious voice immediately sounded from the phone.”Miss Zuo, where did you go? You still need to get an injection every night after seven. Your body hasn’t fully recovered yet, so you can’t walk around. Where are you?”

Zuo Yue’s expression froze slightly as she looked at the time.

It was almost nine o’clock.

“I’m outside…”

“Why are you outside?” The nurse’s scream immediately came from the phone.”Oh my god! Miss Zuo, you have severe pneumonias now. It’s not a joke. Come back quickly. You can’t go out. It’ll be even harder for you to recover. Come back quickly. Where are you? Come back and lie down and rest immediately. Also, you have to get an injection!”

“I’ll be back soon. You guys go see the other patients first.”

“When are you coming back? Was it because he was not feeling well and could not come back on his own? Your mother hasn’t been in the hospital for the past two days. She left you with us. You can’t walk around like this! Miss Zuo, where are you? Our hospital will send a car to pick you up!”

“No need. I have something to do. I’ll go back after I’m done.”

“But Miss Zuo, your body can’t allow you to be so reckless. You…”

“I’ll be back soon. Really, my body is much better. You don’t have to worry.”Zuo Yue hung up the phone after she finished speaking. She held her phone tightly and looked at the crowd who were still rushing to the next movie.

It was nine o’clock…

She looked down at the movie ticket in her hand and turned around unwillingly to buy the next scene.

Uncle, you’ll definitely come…

I told you that I would wait for you to come. You will definitely come. You won’t be so cruel, right?

The cold wind had already penetrated her clothes, which were not particularly thick. Zuo Yue’s face was already red from the cold, and her hands and feet were frozen. She held the stack of movie tickets tightly in her hand and stood in the most conspicuous place in front of the theater. Her gaze was firm as she looked at the passing cars.

Other than the calls from the hospital, her phone had been silent.

She thought of calling Xu Chengfeng to ask him what he was busy with and if he was already on his way.

However, every time she picked up the phone, she would put it down again.

Since he didn’t reply to her messages or call her to reject her, it meant that he would come. He would definitely come, so he didn’t call her to reject her.

If she called him now, what if he couldn’t come because he had something to do and asked her to go back? Wouldn’t she have waited for nothing?

She wanted to wait here until he came…

As time passed, the night deepened and the cold wind grew colder. Zuo Yue stood on the spot like a statue, and the movie tickets in her hand kept increasing.

From 7:30 pm to 8:50 pm, to 9:50 pm, and then to 11 pm…

The number of people in front of the cinema gradually decreased. Because it was not the first day of the premiere, there were not many people rushing to the night scene.

At eleven o’clock at night, the last movie before midnight began to be shown.

The cleaning staff who would come over every once in a while to disturb the venue in front of the cinema walked to Zuo Yue’s side, as if they were already used to the scene of waiting for people in front of the cinema. However, when they saw that Zuo Yue was so young, they finally walked over and asked with some heartache,”Little girl, are you waiting for your boyfriend?”
