Chapter 114: Watch a ghost Movie

Chapter 114

When they arrived at the movie theater, they bought a cup of popcorn and two cups of soda. As the time approached, the two of them checked their tickets and entered the theater. Chu Yang noticed that most of the people were couples, and they generally sat towards the back. Their seats were decent, in the middle, and not at the back.

Not many people came to watch this horror movie, probably just over twenty or so. Everyone sat scattered around. In Chu Yang's row, apart from them, there was also a couple seated five or six seats away.

As the movie started, the sounds became terrifying. The initially composed Chu Yang, who had been calmly drinking soda, immediately grabbed Chi Yan's hand. Although his heart was pounding, his eyes remained fixed on the screen.

With his other hand, Chi Yan fed her a kernel of popcorn. "Don't be afraid, it's just acting. If you're scared, you can hug me." He chuckled mischievously.

The initial plot was still fine. It was about a group of people who accidentally entered an abandoned village while on a trip. Everyone began exploring, and someone even found jewelry and gold.

One by one, they started treasure hunting. Before they knew it, night had fallen. Everyone decided to stay the night and continue searching for gold the next day. They all felt lucky and agreed. Then, things started happening...

When the first climax came, a chorus of screams erupted in the theater, from both men and women. Chu Yang wasn't scared by the movie but was startled by the screams. She immediately hid in Chi Yan's embrace.

Chi Yan promptly held her close and covered her ears. "Don't be afraid, it's nothing. The main characters are just overreacting."

Chu Yang's heart raced as she cautiously peeked out. Indeed, nothing had happened. She hugged Chi Yan's arms tightly and continued watching. Whenever a scary part came up, she would hide in his embrace. By halfway through the movie, she was practically sitting on his lap.

Chi Yan simply pulled her onto his lap. "Just watch it like this."

Chu Yang felt a bit embarrassed but noticed that most of the couples, whether in front or beside them, were doing the same. She gradually relaxed. Whenever a scary part came up, Chi Yan would cover her eyes and narrate the plot to her.

With his explanations added to her own understanding, Chu Yang didn't find it so terrifying anymore.

After nearly two hours, the movie finally ended. Chu Yang tightly hugged Chi Yan as they exited the theater, letting out a sigh of relief. "That was really terrifying!"

In the end, no one in the movie survived, and the cycle repeated. Moral of the story: greed leads to no good.

Chi Yan, however, was thinking about installing a small home theater in his house so they could watch movies in their own private world. But he wanted to surprise Chu Yang with it, so he planned to research good projectors online.

After the movie, the two strolled around for a bit before returning to campus.

This time, the car was parked a bit further from the girls' dormitory in a secluded area without streetlights, enveloped in darkness. When Chi Yan parked there, Chu Yang knew he was up to something.

As usual, she absorbed his Yang energy, though her mouth felt a bit sore afterward.

Chi Yan seemed more excited than usual today. When they finished, Chu Yang checked herself in a small mirror. Her shirt buttons were undone, her hair was messy, her mouth was a bit swollen and red, and her ear had a bite mark.

The three exchanged glances before Zheng Qing gestured for Wei Feng to speak.

Wei Feng scratched his head. "Well, you were on a date this past weekend, right? We went to play basketball, and the court next to us had a bunch of freshmen. During our break, I overheard them chatting about that Zhao Guhong kid, the freshman star. They were saying he's better than you and a great basketball player who already joined the basketball team, ready to challenge you. They also think he's more handsome than you, said we're old..."

Zheng Qing clenched his teeth. "Yeah! They said we're old! The first part doesn't matter, but what do they mean we're old? Just because we're one year ahead? Don't they know they'll get old too?"

"Exactly!"

"So we went over and had a 'friendly' debate with them. In the end, we made a bet that Zhao Guhong is planning to join the campus top ten singers competition and the welcome party, so we said you'd join too. Let's see who's the most handsome and the best!"

Chi Yan: ...

"Come on, join! We've never seen you participate in these kinds of events before. Plus..." Wei Feng's eyes flickered. "I'm sure the big lady also wants to see you join. Seems like she hasn't seen you in these events either. When you go up and sing, then profess your love to her, she'll definitely adore you."

"Yes, yes!"

"She'll definitely give you a kiss on the spot!"

Zheng Qing and Wei Feng proceeded to demonstrate kissy faces.

"Muah~"

"Muah~"

Chi Yan cringed at their exaggerated displays. "Ugh~" They were too greasy.

However, he did realize that Chu Yang had indeed never seen him participate in such events. "Let me ask my girlfriend first. Maybe she doesn't want me to perform for everyone."

Wei Feng & Zheng Qing: ...

Chi Yan sent Chu Yang a message: "What do you think about me joining the campus top ten singers competition? Oh, and the school has a welcome event. Should I sign up for a stage performance?"

Of course, Chu Yang supported him. It's a good thing for a college student to participate in various activities. "Go for it, I support you!"

"Will you come to watch me then?"

Picturing that scene, Chi Yan smiled with crescent-shaped eyes.
