You Are The Apple of My Eyes -
Chapter 466 His Familiar Voice
The next day, at 2 p.m.
Noah, Nina and Vicente arrived at the cinema where Demi and the manager had been waiting for a long time along with some bodyguards standing by.
When the manager saw Nina and Vicente standing together, she almost cried out in excitement but kept it to herself. She took out her mobile phone and took pictures of them in secret.
She sent them to Theater No. 2. As soon as they entered, the manager posted their pictures online, with the caption "Mr. and Mrs. Nangong are going to watch a movie together. I'm so jealous!"
It took only a matter of time for the message to be forwarded and commented.
Vicente helped Nina sit down and took the seat on her left side while Noah sat on her right.
In the huge movie theater, only the three of them were there.
An advertisement played on the screen, which was in sync with other theaters. However, the movie here had been switched.
Upon taking his seat, Noah said, "I just saw someone taking pictures of you."
"That manager? I saw it. If I'm not mistaken, she's a fan of me and Vicente. I guess she's already posted it online," said Nina.
"Your fan?" Noah asked in confusion.
Nina nodded, "Take out your phone and check it."
"He can't see it on his phone," Vicente said and took out her phone. When she saw the all the attention that it was getting, she was shocked. "This manager is not only a fan, she's the leader of our fans."
She handed over the phone to Nina and the latter took a glance. "I look like I've gained some weight in this photo. But it can't tell whether or not I'm pregnant."
Vicente enlarged the photo. "That's true. The clothes you're wearing today are loose, and it's winter. No one can tell that you're pregnant."
While both of them were talking about the photos, Noah was looking at the entrance of the theater from time to time.
He had made everything clear yesterday. So he thought that John should be able to meet Nina in the cinema.
But as he entered the cinema, he didn't see John at all.
The movie had already started.
The lights cut out and the theater was enveloped in darkness. While Nina and Vicente were immersed in the world of movie, they didn't notice Noah stand up and go out.
He went outside to look for John but to no avail. Before going back, he went to the bathroom.
When Noah got back to his seat, Nina then realized that he had gone out. She looked at him sideways and continued watching the movie.
James' scene just started playing.
"Is it because of the filter? James looks so handsome." Nina stared at the screen.
Noah just smiled. "He's always been very handsome. And the Shi family has excellent genes."
"Your family has good genes too. You and Henry are both handsome." After praising him, Nina changed the topic back to James. "But is James really this handsome? I never saw it before." Vicente cut in, "Not only is he handsome, but his acting skills are also great. He's particularly good at driving emotions. He almost made me cry just now."
"Just cry," Nina said calmly.
Vicente rolled her eyes. "Forget what I said."
"Because Mr. Shi used to be with you," Noah said, his voice a little hoarse. The touching background music from the movie melded with his voice that made him sound sadder than he was. Nina's eyes flickered and turned to look at him. "Noah..."
Noah met her gaze and repeated what he had just said. "Because Mr. Shi was with you, you didn't notice that James is actually very handsome.
In your eyes, there is only Mr. Shi." Even in the darkness, Noah saw the glint of Nina's tears. He patted her head and said, "Nini,
you will meet soon. Trust me!"
"Noah..." Nina couldn't find the words to speak. Just by looking at his eyes, she believed him.
She really believed that she would meet John soon.
"Hey, hey, you two, be careful," Vicente said sarcastically. "Don't flirt with each other. I'm still here. Noah, you are quite arrogant."
Vicente's tone made Nina chuckle. "Vicente, you'd better focus on the movie. You've been jealous since Noah came. Are you jealous of me and Noah?"
"Humph, I don't want to talk to you." Vicente leaned back and turned his attention back to the movie.
Nina didn't notice that half of the movie was already over.
Nina was a little absent-minded because of Noah's words. For some reason, she had a strange feeling that John was nearby.
From time to time, she glanced around the theater, but there was no one else there except the three of them.
Besides, there were two bodyguards guarding the entrance of the theater.
Both of them were standing straight when they saw a man wearing the cinema uniform come. They reached out and stopped him in his tracks. "What's the matter?" The waiter was wearing a mask, carrying popcorn and a can of Coke.
"Someone in Theater 2 ordered popcorn and Coke. I'm bringing these to them." The man's voice sounded hushed as he looked at them straight with clear eyes.
The two bodyguards stared at each other. "You go in and ask," one bodyguard said to the other. Then, he turned to the waiter. "Please show me your work permit." The man took out a card and handed it to the bodyguard. The bodyguard looked at it carefully and asked, "Sean Lu?"
"Yes." The man nodded.
Although they didn't find anything unusual just by looking at him, they were extra careful since they were in charge of protecting the count and his wife.
"Show me your ID card and take off your mask," one of the bodyguards ordered.
The man took out his ID card and handed it to the bodyguard without hesitation. The bodyguard expected it closely to verify his identity.
However, he saw that the man had not yet taken off his mask. "Take off your mask," he ordered again more firmly.
Quite hesitant, the man narrowed his eyes and slowly raised his hand to remove his mask.
The photo on his ID card looked different from how he looked today. He was so excited that he forgot to put on makeup. If he took off his mask, he would be found out.
Before he could verify his identity, the other bodyguard came back. "It's Mr. Ye who ordered popcorn and Coke. Let him in."
"Then you can go in." The bodyguard opened the door and directed him inside.
As soon as John entered the room, he saw James on the screen. He couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
As he made his way inside, he turned around and saw three people sitting in the center of the theater. The light from the screen shone on them and clearly, John saw Nina sitting between two people. Her long hair was tied behind her ears, highlighting her small face. She was as beautiful as a flower. Her face was quite round, which he liked.
John couldn't count the times her face had appeared before him in his dreams. Now, it was right in front of him.
It was no longer a dream.
Noah saw John and nodded at him. He then turned to Nina and said, "Nini, here's the popcorn I ordered for you." "Okay." Nina was so engrossed by the scene that she didn't pay too much attention to what Noah had just said.
Walking towards her, John felt as if he would miss a step every time he lifted his foot. He was afraid that this was just the longest and most vivid dream he'd ever had and soon, he would wake up. He was afraid that Nina would disappear in front of him.
With every step John took, his heart pounded even stronger.
He didn't miss a step. His heart was still beating. This feeling was very real, just like the person in front of him.
Nina didn't disappear.
At this moment, John stood in front of Noah, staring at Nina from the side. He was at a loss what to do and what to say.
As he saw John standing still, Noah turned again to Nina and reminded her, "Nini, popcorn."
With her eyes still fixed to the movie, Nina reached out her hand and touched nothing. "Where is the popcorn?"
When she turned her head, a bucket of popcorn was handed to her and she heard a voice that had echoed in her mind countless times.
"Here." John stared at Nina.
