Chapter 75 Talk to Me
Wei Chuan had never been in a relationship, and he didn't understand why Xu Heqing chose a suspense horror movie when taking his girlfriend to the movies.
Until the movie officially started, when Xie Lingyin hid in his arms and sobbed, he muttered in his heart: "How cunning and treacherous."
At the beginning of the film, the camera focuses on a long, dark slope. There is clearly nothing there, but Wei Chuan already wants to shout for help.
He stroked the armrest of the sofa and slowly moved towards Meng Tang.
In his peripheral vision, he saw a figure swaying. Meng Tang turned his head and asked, "Are you scared?"
"No." Wei Chuan straightened his back.
Meng Tang said "Oh": "Then don't move, watch the movie."
Wei Chuan turned his head, the camera zoomed in, and a body rolled down the long slope.
Wei Chuan shuddered and raised his hands and feet in a defensive posture, fearing that the director would suddenly zoom in and give him a visual shock.
Meng Tang was attracted by his movements and turned around. He found that his body was stiff and asked with concern:
"Are you really okay?"
Wei Chuan stared and stuffed a handful of popcorn into his mouth to ease his tense mood.
Then he shook his head at Meng Tang.
Meng Tang gave him the popcorn, feeling that he needed it more than she did.
It was a bit sweet, Wei Chuan took a sip of water and put the popcorn aside.
As the plot progresses, the protagonist begins to look for the body, and after a series of reversals, the body is hidden in the protagonist's home.
From the door to every room, the sense of suspense was extreme. The moment the body was discovered, all the girls in the theater were so scared that they buried themselves in their boyfriends' chests.
Wei Chuan yelled "Fuck" and grabbed Meng Tang's arm.
Meng Tang: “…”
Didn’t you say you weren’t afraid?
It was a bit funny to see such a big kid huddled aside. Meng Tang curled his lips and said, "If you're really scared, just go to sleep."
"I wasn't scared, it was just that the camera suddenly turned to under the bed and I didn't have time to prepare."
"Oh," Meng Tang inexplicably wanted to tease him, "Then let go of your hands. I can't bear to watch you like this."
Wei Chuan cleared his throat and said, "This seat is too close. It makes my eyes uncomfortable. How about you sit a little closer?"
Meng Tang laughed: "Are you hiding behind me? You're so tall, how can I block you?"
"I'm not hiding." Wei Chuan whispered, "I'm here to provide you with a strong backing. If you get scared, I'll cover your eyes from behind and provide you with a solid and reliable chest."
Meng Tang forced a smile and moved forward.
The sofa was wide and large, and there was a certain distance between it and the seats for other couples in front and behind, so no one noticed the little movements of the two.
There was a large space behind the sofa, and Wei Chuan and Meng Tang silently crossed their bodies.
He didn't want to admit that he was afraid, so he glanced at the screen over Meng Tang's shoulder from time to time.
Whenever the scenes became more terrifying, his gaze would be fixed in the air until it became out of focus.
The film reached its climax, and there was a burst of screams in the theater. Wei Chuan couldn't hold back any longer and hugged Meng Tang's waist, repeating over and over: "Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck..."
Meng Tang felt a tightness around her waist, and groaned from the strength of his grip.
"Wei Chuan!" Meng Tang was shocked and embarrassed, "Let me go."
"No, no, no." Wei Chuan was so frightened that his face turned pale. "Please, wait a moment."
Meng Tang remained stiff and stopped struggling.
It was very hot in the theater. They took off their coats when they came in, and Meng Tang was only wearing a thin sweater.
A layer of warmth pressed against her back, making her head dizzy. The clips playing on the big screen passed by her eyes, but she couldn't concentrate.
Wei Chuan's arms were getting tighter and tighter, and he could feel that he was very scared.
But this is also embarrassing.
After a while, Meng Tang turned his head and asked in a low voice, "Are you okay?"
At the same time, Wei Chuan tilted his head forward and met her eyes.
The big screen was emitting a cold light, sometimes bright and sometimes dark, and each frame depicted a still ambiguity.
The breath was lingering, so close that Meng Tang pursed his lips and involuntarily stepped back.
Wei Chuan tightened his arms, and the two men suddenly moved closer, with their noses just a fraction of a second away.
Meng Tang suddenly opened his eyes wide: "You..."
"What's wrong with me?" Wei Chuan lowered his voice and pretended to be innocent.
"You, you're like this... I can't watch the movie anymore." Meng Tang's voice trembled, and the volume decreased word by word.
Wei Chuan said: "Everyone is like this."
It's just that the girls are lying in the boys' arms, and they just switched them.
"They are a couple, but we..." Meng Tang's cheeks were hot, "No."
The fear gradually returned. Wei Chuan rarely saw Meng Tang shy, so he hugged her tighter and tighter, saying confidently, "What if I'm scared?"
Meng Tang glared. Isn't she afraid? She quickly replied, "I'll go out with you."
"The movie is still playing. It would be such a spoiler if I went out. I would disturb others."
Meng Tang grabbed his wrist and said, "But I really can't watch the movie if you do this."
"Liang Heng likes to hide behind Li Zhuo and hug him when watching horror movies. It's okay for good friends to do that." Wei Chuan hinted.
"Ah?" Meng Tang always felt that something was wrong.
The scene moves forward again, and Wei Chuan buries his head in Meng Tang's shoulder.
He hugged her from behind, making Meng Tang sink into his arms.
"Wei Chuan." Meng Tang was about to cry.
Smells so good.
Meng Tang has a unique scent, with a natural woody fragrance.
After just a sniff, Wei Chuan hurriedly let go of her when he heard her crying.
"Don't cry, I won't hold you."
Hooligan! Meng Tang turned his head away and ignored him.
After all, in the cinema, too much movement would be annoying. Wei Chuan leaned against the back of the sofa, staring at Meng Tang.
Meng Tang is not a puppet, so he can naturally sense his gaze.
But after what happened just now, some people's faces have become as thick as city walls.
Twenty minutes later, the movie ended, but no one left. They were all waiting for the Easter egg.
Various voices echoed in the theater, some discussing the plot, some eating snacks, some drinking milk tea...
Wei Chuan put popcorn to Meng Tang's lips and begged in a low voice: "Talk to me."
Meng Tang was about to speak when sweet popcorn was stuffed into her mouth and she could only chew it.
Seeing that Wei Chuan wanted to take more, she quickly stopped him: "I'm talking to you, don't feed it."
Wei Chuan felt lost and threw the popcorn into his mouth.
After reading the Easter eggs, Meng Tang picked up his bag and subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.
The air conditioning made her bones weak.
They had to eat later, so Wei Chuan picked up her coat and put it on his hand, then asked her, "Are you hungry? What do you want to eat?"
"Ask them." Meng Tang turned around and didn't see the coat, so he looked around.
Wei Chuan raised his hand: "I'll hold it for you."
"I'll take it myself." Meng Tang reached out to take it.
Wei Chuan handed her the popcorn: "Hold this, there's still half a bucket left."
After leaving the theater, the two girls went to the bathroom.
Wei Chuan punched Xu Heqing: "Did you do this on purpose?"
Xu Heqing glanced at him sideways: "I think you hold it quite well."
Wei Chuan: “…”
He was afraid and in a state of panic.
After a while, Xie Lingyin came out of the bathroom, but Meng Tang was not there.
Wei Chuan went forward and asked, "Where is she?"
"I'm on the phone." Xie Lingyin took the bag from Xu Heqing's shoulder. "Wait a moment."
"Who is it?" Wei Chuan asked subconsciously.
Xie Lingyin said, "The new intangible cultural heritage instructor at the Academy of Fine Arts might have something to ask Meng Tang."
Wei Chuan's face suddenly darkened.
