The teacher froze for several seconds before managing a bitter smile. Her voice carried a trace of a sigh. "Then he'll be very disappointed."
"Extremely disappointed."
"Will he cry?"
Little Fatty asked curiously.
"Maybe."
The teacher's lips twitched slightly.
At last, she looked away from Xu He.
She turned to Little Fatty. "Luo Tian, make sure you comfort Xu He when the time comes."
"Xu He might be in a bit of a bad mood."
"Don't hold it against him."
"Okay."
Little Fatty nodded.
"I won't hold it against him."
"I know he's upset because he hasn't seen him."
"Good boy."
The teacher smiled at Little Fatty.
Then she looked toward Xu He again.
That child was practically like a statue.
He didn't move at all.
The teacher lowered her head and checked the time.
Phew.
At last...
The movie was nearing its end.
Soon...
The moviegoers would file out of the theater...
The teacher stood up.
Since it was almost time...
She might as well go over there too.
When Little Fatty saw the teacher stand, he immediately hopped down to the floor as well.
He'd had enough rest, too.
The teacher walked behind Xu He.
Little Fatty followed close behind her.
Xu He sensed the movement behind him.
He glanced back.
Then quickly looked away.
He knew...
Big Brother would be coming out soon.
If Big Brother really was watching a movie in one of the theaters inside.
Xu He's heart began to pound faster.
His ears started ringing.
He clenched his hands nervously.
His eyes stayed fixed on the theater exit, not blinking.
Moviegoers began trickling out.
They chatted and laughed as they passed Xu He.
Xu He's gaze swept over every face.
Yes.
