Chapter 115 Taking the First Step

cinema.

It was completely dark all around, except for the light from the large screen.

Jiang Xiyan sat next to Xu An, and she turned her head slightly to look at Xu An, who was watching the movie intently.

The screen light shone on his face, and the changing light and shadow accentuated his already angular profile.

Jiang Xiyan pursed her lips, her hands on her knees gripping her skirt with a hint of nervousness.

She bit her lip lightly, as if she had made up her mind, and loosened one hand from her skirt, stretching it to the side.

"hiss!"

Xu An suddenly turned his head and stared at her with wide eyes.

Where should I grab it?

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" Jiang Xiyan blushed like a child who had done something wrong and quickly apologized in a low voice.

I wasn't paying attention and accidentally grabbed the wrong spot. It was so embarrassing!

Xu An's lips twitched, and he forced a smile: "No, it's nothing."

Be more careful next time.

Jiang Xiyan hummed in agreement, not daring to look at Xu An. She pretended to be calm and stared at the screen, a blush creeping up her neck to her ears.

The movie screen kept flashing, and the voices of the movie characters could be heard in her ears, but Jiang Xiyan didn't hear a word. All she could think about was the sensation she had just felt on her hand.

The more she thought about it, the redder and hotter her face became.

Her legs rubbed together a little awkwardly, gripping her skirt tightly.

Xu An lost all interest in watching the movie for a moment; that grab had shaken his very soul.

That strange feeling stimulated his brain.

My mind kept wandering into wild fantasies.

"Damn it, what am I thinking about? Focus on the movie!" Xu An cursed inwardly, forcing himself to straighten his mind.

Suddenly, Xu An felt a warm sensation on the back of his hand. He looked down and saw a hand holding the back of his hand.

He turned to look at Jiang Xiyan, who was staring intently at the screen. The moment the screen lit up, he saw her flushed cheeks.

Xu An leaned back in his seat, his body a little stiff.

For a moment, it was neither good to pull my hand back nor good to keep it.

As time went by, a small hand slowly slipped into his palm and then grasped it.

The warmth and smooth touch from Jiang Xiyan's palm reminded Xu An of Lu Zhe's words from last night.

This time, without hesitation or agonizing, he took Jiang Xiyan's hand.

Jiang Xiyan was immediately delighted, and a smile involuntarily appeared on her face as she gripped the hand even tighter.

Jiang Xiyan's hands were soft and boneless, incredibly smooth, even smoother than Dove chocolate. This made Xu An's heart flutter for a moment, and he couldn't help but gently caress her with his fingertips.

The touch from the back of her hand made Jiang Xiyan's face flush. She didn't reject it; on the contrary, she was secretly delighted.

The movie ended, and the lights suddenly came on.

Xu An was a little dazed, feeling as if the movie had just ended as soon as he sat down.

Throughout the entire movie, he had no idea what was going on; only a few words came to mind: silky smooth and soft.

"Let's go, Xu An." Jiang Xiyan stood up and took Xu An's hand.

"Oh, okay." Xu An snapped out of his daze and followed Jiang Xiyan out of the movie theater.

The two held hands like that. Jiang Xiyan looked down at her hand that he was holding, her eyes full of smiles.

We've finally taken the first step!

"Xu An, let's go to the zoo."

It's still early. There's a zoo in Jiangdu, and I heard it's quite big.

"it is good."

Only after getting into the car did Jiang Xiyan reluctantly let go of his hand.

Having grown accustomed to the warmth of Xu An's palm, they immediately experienced withdrawal symptoms as soon as they parted.

But Xu An was driving, so she could only endure it for now and continue holding his hand after getting out of the car.

Jiangdu Zoo, one of the largest zoos in China, covers a vast area and has undergone three major renovations.

Jiangdu Zoo first opened in 1998 and has been operating for several decades.

After three major renovations, the area has expanded, and the number of animals kept in captivity has increased. The zoo's official website lists a total of more than 400 species.

It has almost everything: flying in the sky, running on the ground, climbing in trees, and swimming in the water. Of course, this does not include the creatures in the ocean.

After parking the car, Xu An had just gotten out when Jiang Xiyan jogged over and took his hand.

This prompted Xu An to turn his head and look.

After overcoming her initial shyness, she grew bolder and met Xu An's gaze. "My hands are cold, but yours are warm. If you hold my hand, I won't be cold anymore."

Feeling the warmth of his palm, Xu An smiled and said, "Okay."

Xu An did not refuse, and Jiang Xiyan immediately smiled, feeling sweeter than if she had eaten candy.

"Xu An, let's hurry up, it's already past three o'clock. I heard that Jiangdu Zoo is very big and it will take a long time to explore," Jiang Xiyan said excitedly.

"Okay." Apart from that one word, "okay," Xu An seemed unable to say anything else.

No matter what Jiang Xiyan said, he agreed.

The ticket price is over two hundred yuan per person.

Because it's Sunday, there were quite a few visitors at the zoo, mostly couples or families with children.

"Wow! Xu An, look, look! The peacock over there is spreading its tail feathers, it's so beautiful!" Jiang Xiyan took out her phone to take a picture, and after taking the picture, she naturally put her hand into Xu An's palm.

Keep walking forward.

Jiang Xiyan is like a little child. She wants to show Xu An everything she sees and even asks him to take pictures of her with the animals.

Spending time with Jiang Xiyan and being infected by her youthful energy made Xu An feel a few years younger, as if he were back in his freshman year of college.

It has to be said that Xu An was really inexperienced when he first entered university.

"Wow!"

"Xu An, look at this hippo! It's huge!" Jiang Xiyan stood beside her, pointing excitedly at the hippo.

Xu An smiled and nodded. Hippos are nothing but manure-producing machines; all they do is produce manure.

"Wow! Mom, look at this! It's huge! What's it called?" A little boy approached the wire mesh and excitedly pointed at the hippopotamus.

"Sweetie, this is called a hippopotamus," the little boy's mother knelt down to explain to her child.

Two signs hung next to the wire mesh, reading: "Danger! Stay away from the wire mesh! Observe from a distance!"

[Danger! Danger! Danger! Watch out for hippos spraying feces!]

In the yard, the hippopotamus's little tail swayed gently on its rump. Suddenly, it turned around and faced its rear end toward the crowd of onlookers.

"Hehehe, let's see you eat my fart!"

Upon hearing the hippo's sound, Xu An's eyes snapped open. Before he could even warn Jiang Xiyan, he grabbed her and ran.

Before Jiang Xiyan could react to what was happening, she heard a "poof" sound.

I witnessed a scene she will never forget in her life.

The substance that spewed out of the hippo's rear end, like a shotgun blast, arced through the air and sprayed towards the crowd approaching the iron cage.

"what!"

"vomit!"

"Holy crap... Ugh!"

"I fucking... ugh!!!"
