Rebirth: I have Monopoly System

Since they were outdoors, Liu Nana had put on a coat, so her curvaceous figure wasn’t on display.

"Mama! This is so yummy! I want more!" Qi Ruixi said to Liu Nana, looking at the three wontons remaining in her bowl.

Qi Ruixi’s words gave Wu Yun a moment of respite; he felt the leather shoe that had been creeping upward retract.

Lowering his head to chew on a pig’s trotter, Wu Yun’s mind raced as he tried to figure out how to handle the situation.

Fortunately, Liu Nana had to look after Qi Ruixi, so she didn’t make any more moves. She simply chatted and laughed with Qi Fei about her time at school and on the film set, occasionally looping Wu Yun into the conversation as if nothing had happened moments before.

After lunch, it was already one in the afternoon. The three of them took Qi Ruixi to play on some amusement park rides before dropping her off with her maternal grandfather as she started to get sleepy.

While waiting in the movie theater lobby, Wu Yun went to the concession stand to buy popcorn. Qi Fei and Liu Nana were lucky enough to snag a table and continued their conversation.

"Feifei! When can I see your movie?" Liu Nana had just learned that Qi Fei was in *Wolf Warrior*, but since she didn’t usually follow promotional news, she had to ask.

Qi Fei pulled out her phone and opened her notes app. "It’s scheduled to be released on April 2nd of this year!"

Liu Nana said excitedly, "When your movie comes out, it’ll be the first time I’ve ever seen someone I know on the big screen!"

Qi Fei smiled faintly. "Sister Na! Just don’t be disappointed when the time comes. I have very little screen time—only a few lines."

"That’s fine! It’s my little sister’s first movie, so I definitely have to go show my support!" Liu Nana said with a laugh. "We should keep in touch more. I want to hear your stories to get material for my future novels."

"I think your story with Wu Yun is already great! It’s a classic tale of a domineering CEO and a beautiful heiress! If you just add a Cinderella subplot, the novel would be a guaranteed bestseller!" A wistful look appeared on Liu Nana’s face.

"What are you guys talking about?" Wu Yun returned, a large combo bucket of popcorn and fries tucked under one arm while he carefully balanced a coke and two juices in his hands.

"Sister Na! This iced juice is for you! Senior, yours is the warm one!" Wu Yun placed the drinks on the table before sitting down to wait for the movie to begin.

A few moments later, an announcement came over the cinema’s speakers: "Good afternoon, moviegoers! The 3:30 PM showing of *Celestial Lion* is now seating. Please form a line to have your tickets checked."

The announcement repeated twice more, and everyone in the lobby, whether sitting or standing, began to converge on the ticket gate and form a line.

Wu Yun and the others grabbed their things and got in line.

Some students around Wu Yun’s age looked on with envy as he chatted and laughed with two beautiful women.

Of course, a few girls also fixed their gazes on Wu Yun’s face, thinking he was totally their type.

Soon it was their turn. Liu Nana handed their three tickets to the usher, who deftly tore off the stubs and gave her three pairs of 3D glasses from a box.

Liu Nana led the way as they found Theater 3. By then, most of the seats were already taken.

Their seats were in the middle of the back row, and as Wu Yun glanced over, he saw three empty seats waiting for them right in the center.

As it happened, the seats on either side of their empty ones were occupied by girls, some of whom smiled excitedly when they saw the three of them approaching.

Qi Fei and Liu Nana saw the situation as well. Liu Nana laughed and said, "Let’s have Wu Yun sit in the middle. He’s holding the popcorn, so it’ll be easy for both of us to reach."

Qi Fei had no objections. In fact, she’d seen the way those other women were staring at Wu Yun, like they wanted to snatch away her favorite toy.

Hearing Liu Nana’s suggestion, Wu Yun had a feeling this movie was going to be... intense.

It wasn’t that Wu Yun didn’t want to resist. It was just that, for a fleeting moment, he felt like he understood what it was like to be a Cao Thief. ’I’ll just wait and see what happens,’ he thought.

The plot of *Celestial Lion* was over-the-top, but the action sequences were thrillingly realistic and the acting was commendable. Qi Fei was instantly engrossed, even studying the actors’ micro-expressions to improve her own craft.

Only occasionally would Qi Fei reach her right hand into the popcorn bucket on Wu Yun’s lap for a few kernels, never even turning her head.

At first, Wu Yun didn’t notice Liu Nana doing anything unusual. She just reached for popcorn and fries like normal.

So, Wu Yun settled in to re-experience the movie’s plot himself.

Every so often, Wu Yun would feel Liu Nana’s stockinged calf brush against his. He paid it no mind, pretending not to notice.

Suddenly, Wu Yun felt a small hand grab his thigh, as if it had missed its target.

The hand seemed to realize its mistake, quickly moving higher until it found the popcorn.

’Here we go,’ Wu Yun thought. He cleared his throat, sat up straighter, and kept his eyes on the movie.

Then, the hand made an even more "grievous error." This time, it grabbed him right on his vitals and even gave a playful squeeze.

Wu Yun turned to look at Liu Nana, but she was pretending nothing had happened, her eyes glued to the screen.
