Chapter 578 - IMAX Was Broken



Chapter 578: IMAX Was Broken

“Eh?” Xie Yiren suddenly got up from Zheng Ren’s arms and took off her IMAX eyes. She looked at them and said, “Why is it broken?”

“Huh?” Zheng Ren was puzzled.

“Is yours not broken?” Xie Yiren was also puzzled.

“Is it the right eye?” Zheng Ren asked.

At this moment, the people around also took off their glasses to look at them.

After taking off their glasses, there was no problem at all. It was just an ordinary 2D movie. However, when they put on their glasses, the right side was pitch black.

What was going on?

“Sorry everyone, one of the projectors is broken. You can’t watch IMAX movies today,” a staff member stood up and explained to everyone.

Zheng Ren felt helpless.

Just a moment ago, he was still snuggling with Xie Yiren and they were being told right there and then that the IMAX was broken?

Little Yiren was surprised but there was a smile on her face.

“Why do you look so happy?” Zheng Ren was surprised. He did not understand why Little Yiren was so happy.

“It’s the first time I’ve encountered such a thing. I’ve watched it for many years but have never experienced such a situation.” Xie Yi Ren put her glasses on and off again to compare the differences.

Seeing Xie Yiren look like a child who had found a good toy, Zheng Ren smiled.

Well, he could treat it as a novel experience.

Life was always full of experiences.

The staff apologized profusely, saying that they wanted everyone to keep the movie tickets so that they could watch the same one again tomorrow.

However, by the same time tomorrow, Zheng Ren and Xie Yiren would already be back at Sea City.

Although they felt a little regretful, Xie Yiren’s surprised smile diluted that regret.

The two of them left the theater hand in hand. Xie Yiren was still repeating the action of covering her right eye occasionally as if she wanted to deepen her memory and remember the broken IMAX glasses experience.

“Tomorrow’s surgery might end a little late. What are you going to do before then?” Zheng Ren asked.

“Probably just sleep in and be easy.” Xie Yiren raised her hand and drew a big circle. “I’ve had too many surgeries recently. I haven’t had enough sleep.”

“By the way, I told you on WeChat that Department Chief Kong wants me to go to the Imperial Capital this time,” Zheng Ren said softly. “Shall we head there together?”

“The Capital…” Xie Yiren said with a smile, “The air there is so bad.”

“It’s been better recently.”

“Really? If you go, you’ll be the best surgeon,” Xie Yiren said seriously. “I’ll be your scrub nurse.”

Zheng Ren smiled and tightened his grip on Xie Yiren’s hand.

“You can’t really see the stars in the Imperial Capital, the Provincial Capital, or Sea City,” Xie Yiren said. “Before we leave, I’ll take you to a place to see the stars.”

“Where?”

“Well… There’s a hot spring resort more than a hundred kilometers away from Sea City. Unfortunately, it snowed less this year and things have been busy. Otherwise, it would be great to soak in a hot spring on a snowy day!”

When she talked about the hot springs in the snow, Xie Yi’s eyes sparkled.

“Are there many stars?”

“So many,” Xie Yiren said. “There aren’t any people living there. It is just a big hot spring resort with many small villas and a single courtyard. At night, you can see many constellations, including Orion.”

“Okay, let’s go there when we have time.”

While they were talking about casual topics, the two of them strolled aimlessly down the bustling pedestrian street in the Provincial Capital.

Although it was already past nine o’clock in the evening, there would be no one on the road at that hour back in Sea City.

However, the nightlife in the Provincial Capital had just begun. The bars, cafes, and beer houses were bustling with people.

In Zheng Ren’s boring world, there was no concept of nightlife.

During that time, he would either read at home or be on duty at the hospital performing surgery.

Xie Yiren rarely came out so late. She was curious about everything since everything was a new experience to her.

“Do you want to go in and take a look?” Walking outside a hot bar, Zheng Ren asked her that when he heard the loud and thumping music.

“No,” Xie Yiren said. “I think it’s too noisy inside. I don’t like it.”

Zheng Ren heaved a sigh of relief when he heard Xie Yiren’s determined tone.

He was worried that if Xie Yiren liked that sort of thing, he would have to get used to her habits in the future.

“It’s good that you don’t like it.” Zheng Ren heaved a sigh of relief.

Compared to the hot bar, Zheng Ren preferred the quiet and distant view of the stars.

However, it was better to only look at the stars with Xie Yiren. If there were more people, he would also feel that it was a bit too noisy.

The two of them walked a big circle along the pedestrian street and saw the familiar shadow of a red Volvo XC60.

It was getting late. It was time to go back.

Without saying a word, the two of them got into the car and slowly drove away from the nightlife that had just begun.

Xie Yiren’s house in the Provincial Capital was not far from the pedestrian street in the city center. It took slightly more than ten minutes to drive there.

Along the river, one could vaguely see a few figures playing and laughing on the frozen ice.

Zheng Ren looked at them in a daze. His heart was peaceful and warm. However, when he thought about returning to Xie Yiren’s house, his heartbeat suddenly accelerated.

The car had fallen silent at some point. The two of them seemed to be able to hear each other’s heartbeat.

When they reached a fork in the road, Xie Yiren suddenly turned on the windshield wiper.

“Ah!” Xie Yiren immediately turned off the windshield wiper and turned on her signal lights.

“The house is right in front of us. I bought this house many years ago. I usually only live here three to five times a year. When there was no IMAX in Sea City, I used to live here all the time. I don’t come here as often now since I’m busy at work and always work overtime.” Xie Yiren tried to cover up her embarrassment and continued blabbering.

Zheng Ren did not notice Xie Yiren’s nervousness. His hands were clenched tightly and his palms were sweaty.

He felt even more nervous than when he had his first TIPS surgery.

It was a riverside villa that was more than a hundred square meters bigger than her Sea City villa.

After reversing the car into the garage, Xie Yiren jumped out of the car in a panic. She accidentally bumped her head on the car door with a loud ‘bang’.

“It hurts.” Zheng Ren quickly walked over. Seeing Xie Yiren squatting on the ground with her hands covering her head, he quickly reached out and pressed on the top of her head, gently rubbing it.

“I’m alright now.” Xie Yiren jumped up, opened the door, and entered the house.

The house was dark and he heard another ‘bang’. He did not know what the little girl had knocked over again.

Zheng Ren took out his phone. Just as he was about to turn on the flashlight function, the house suddenly lit up.

Xie Yiren’s face was flushed red. She lowered her head and said, “I usually sleep in the guest bedroom. You can sleep in the master bedroom.”

Zheng Ren was silent. He smiled and walked up to touch Xie Yiren’s head.

Xie Yiren lowered her head. She looked at her toes and pinched the corner of her clothes.

Zheng Ren opened his arms and held her in his arms.

It was so warm, soft, and peaceful.

Time stopped and space collapsed. It was as if they were the only two people left in the world.

Gradually, Xie Yiren’s arms were no longer stiff. She hugged Zheng Ren’s waist and pressed her head against his chest.

Her heart was beating loudly in her chest.

After a long while, the Little Yiren smiled and pushed Zheng Ren away. “Wash up and get some rest. There’s still surgery tomorrow.”

Zheng Ren wanted to hold Xie Yi in his arms again but she had already skipped upstairs.
