Chapter 47 - Who is She Calling Cute?

Eventually, they started watching the third movie.

In the beginning, Davi was serious and quiet. But as the movie got more intense, she also became more wild. She covered her eyes with the pillow when there were intensely brutal scenes, hid behind Sei's shoulders and tugged his s.h.i.+rt when the lead actor was about to be shot to death and even shouted the words "Run, run, faster!" multiple times with intense emotion. Sei became even more enthralled by her unexpected quicksilver emotions.

At the end of the movie, when the villain died a gruesome death, Davi's eyes welled up.

At that moment, Sei who was already overflowing with wonder and curiosity, suddenly scrunched his face up briefly. He didn't expect her to cry just for that.

He immediately reached out for the tissue paper on the table and handed it to her, staring intently at her as she wiped her teary eyes. Seeing the girl's expressions go through several different transformations, the emotions flas.h.i.+ng through her eyes one after another, left him completely speechless. He couldn't believe that even a lifeless little screen could make this girl laugh and cry at the same time, unbelievably turning her into an emotional roller coaster.

Shortly after that, the guy who sat motionless like stone, who remained non-existent for more than three freaking hours finally returned to life and spoke.

"He killed lots of people. Why do you sympathize with him?" he asked with his face was resting on his hand. Davi was stunned. She realized that she had completely ignored him this whole time. More importantly, he didn't seem to take any interest in the movies they were watching, so why was he asking such a question now?

The movie he was talking about was about a man who became a ruthless serial killer. He killed people mercilessly as if they were just mosquitoes while the protagonist was trying to hunt him down. However, at the end of the story, when the killer was killed gruesomely, a flashback appeared in his memory showing the merciless death of his entire beloved family which caused him to plot his revenge and kill every single person involved.

"Uh… hmm. I don't know but it's not like sympathizing with people's misfortunes means I'm on his side, right? That man was too heartless and what he did was still wrong, no matter what his reasons were. But the reason for him doing all that is what I think is the saddest part."

Upon hearing her statement, Sei went silent for a while then he reached out to smooth her hair gently, causing Davi to smile at him as if she was already back to her normal 101% self.

Seeing her regain her usual bright smile, Sei asked; "Still want to watch more?"

"Nope, my eyes are tired." She shook her head as she yawned and stretched her arms. "So? How were the movies?"

"Not bad." He immediately replied and Davi could only scratch her head. She knew she was the only one who enjoyed it and she dared to call it a date.

"You got bored, right?" she asked. Sei, seeing her dulled expression, opened his mouth to speak as he patted her hair again, gently.

"I didn't have time to get bored because you were too noisy," he said and Davi was immediately rendered speechless. "And unruly… and didn't stay still at all!" He continued causing Davi's mouth to hang open in disbelief.

"Pftt. Hahaha." Davi couldn't hold her laughter. She abruptly reached for Sei's hair and playfully messed it up as she chuckled continuously, as if she was really amused to the core.

"Why are you being so cute today?" she continued and her eyes twinkled as if Sei just turned into an adorable little beast in her eyes again.

Davi's words were unplanned and she simply said it reflexively. However, it was actually quite destructive in its own way.

As soon as the man heard the word 'cute' being used to describe him, his forehead immediately formed some incredibly deep lines. The impact seemed quite lethal, that he remained blank for a while.

This girl, who is she calling cute?
