"It's okay, I'm here with you." Xiao Chen urged, "You're extremely nervous right now. Only screaming can release your nervousness."
"Then... let's give it a try?" Song Ziyan was a little tempted.
"Try it?" Xiao Chen said with a smile.
"Let's make it clear first, we can't find anyone too scary." Song Ziyan gritted his teeth.
"Don't worry, it's all within the acceptable range." Xiao Chen smiled slightly.
In the cinema on the underground floor, the lights were off and a very scary movie was playing on the giant screen.
It tells the story of a ghost marriage. This movie is very compact both in terms of plot and atmosphere.
Moreover, the dark style of the film gives people a natural sense of fear.
Coupled with the rendering of music, the horror atmosphere of this movie is added a lot.
"Ah... Xiao Chen, you lied to me... You said you wouldn't look for someone too scary." Song Ziyan covered her eyes and screamed from time to time.
It's tense and exciting. Even though you feel scared, you can't help but want to watch it.
"I didn't lie to you, the horror index of this movie is really average." Xiao Chen said helplessly.
Seeing Song Ziyan trembling with fear, he whispered, "How about we not watch it anymore?"
"No, no, I want to finish reading it." Song Ziyan covered her eyes and looked secretly through the gaps between her fingers.
Suddenly, with a terrifying rendering, sound effects and pictures, Song Ziyan screamed and threw herself into Xiao Chen's arms.
She was almost scared to tears, hugging Xiao Chen tightly and trembling.
"Okay, it's over. The rest won't be scary anymore." Xiao Chen comforted.
"I don't believe it, you must be lying to me." Song Ziyan shook her head desperately. She no longer believed Xiao Chen's lies.
"I really don't have any left. I'd be a puppy if I lied to you." Xiao Chen swore.
"I don't believe it, you must be lying to me." Song Ziyan shrank into Xiao Chen's arms.
"What about the trust between people?" Xiao Chen was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
"Zi Yan, have some fruit."
At this moment, the lights suddenly came on and Song's mother came over with a plate of cut fruit.
However, at this time, Song Ziyan was curled up in Xiao Chen's arms, with Xiao Chen holding her body with both hands.
For a moment, six eyes met, and the scene became extremely awkward.
"Mom, why did you come down?" After a long time, Song Ziyan said awkwardly.
"I... came to bring you some fruit." Song's mother said stutteringly.
Then, seeing that the two of them showed no intention of separating, she hesitated and said, "How about...you two separate first? Talk after we finish eating?"
"Ah..." Song Ziyan then realized that she was still lying in Xiao Chen's arms.
She screamed and quickly got off Xiao Chen. She blushed and explained, "Mom is not what you think. It's really not..."
"I understand, I understand everything." Song's mother didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She put down the fruit in her hand and said in a worried tone, "Don't play too much, the college entrance examination is coming soon."
"I don't have a mother, really..." Song Ziyan really wanted to find a crack to crawl into.
Forget it, there’s no need to watch the movie now. Song Ziyan trembled and shouted, “Xiao Chen, it’s all your fault.”
"Why are you blaming me again?" Xiao Duo looked puzzled.
"If you hadn't wanted to watch the movie, this wouldn't have happened."
"What should I do? My mother misunderstood me. I... I..." Song Ziyan covered her face, feeling so embarrassed.
"Um, Xiao Chen?" At this time, Song's mother turned back again.
"Auntie, what's wrong?" Xiao Chen stood up quickly.
"Zi Yan's grandfather wants you to come over. He's at the sanatorium in the north of the city." Mother Song said, "I'll have the driver take you there."
"It's okay, I can go there by myself." Xiao Chen said.
"You can't get in by yourself, I'll ask the driver to take you." Song's mother smiled and said, "You need a pass to enter that place."
"Okay then." Xiao Chen nodded, and then he said to Song Ziyan, "I'll be leaving first. I won't be here for the next few days. Don't worry, I'll cheer you on when the time comes."
"Okay." Song Ziyan said reluctantly.
After getting in the car, the driver drove all the way to the sanatorium in the north of the city.
The uncle who was driving the car was Song Ziyan's so-called 'uncle'.
"Uncle Li, the North City Sanatorium is quite remote, right?" Xiao Chen asked.
"It's quite remote." Uncle Li laughed and said, "That place is not an ordinary place. Retired cadres from all over the country come there to recuperate."
"They asked me to take you there because the police at the door are real armed police. You can't get in without a pass."
"Oh, I see. Sorry to trouble you, Uncle Li." Xiao Chen suddenly realized.
Those who can enter the North City Sanatorium are either rich or noble, but Xiao Chen doesn’t know why Mr. Song wants him to go there.
North City Sanatorium.
This place is built on the mountain. The architectural style from the outside looks ordinary, and the road at the entrance is also a small road that trucks cannot pass through.
But the surrounding environment is quite good, with lakes, bamboo forests, and thousands of acres of wetland parks.
After checking my pass at the door, I rode my bike in.
The houses here are all single-family, about a dozen of them, each with its own entrance and yard.
After parking the car, Uncle Li took Xiao Chen to a private courtyard.
This place is where Song Yunming recuperates. There is a fence in the yard and the ground is paved with floral stones. Behind the fence is a chicken coop with a few chickens in it.
There is also a small vegetable garden in the courtyard, with lush green vegetables growing in it.
"Mr. Song, are you looking for me?" When Xiao Chen came, Song Yunming was arranging a few pots of flowers in the yard.
"Xiao Chen, you're here?" Song Yunming put down the things in his hands with a smile, and then his assistant got water for him to wash his hands.
"What are you doing?" Xiao Chen looked around.
"This nursing home is for some retired old guys." Song Yunming said with a smile: "These old guys, the oldest is nearly a hundred years old."
"People of their generation are nostalgic and can't get used to living in high-rise buildings, so they come here to grow vegetables and flowers."
"I understand." Xiao Chen nodded: "Mr. Song, this is not your residence, right?"
"Of course not. The guy inside is an older brother of mine from Yanjing. He's played Laoshan Lun before and faced off against Ah San in the southwest." Old Song finished washing his hands. "He's here to recuperate, so I'd like to introduce you to him."
"Thank you, Mr. Song." Xiao Chen was stunned for a moment, then thanked him.
He knew that Song Yunming was starting to build up connections for him.
"What are you thanking me for? Come on, follow me in to see your elder brother." Song Yunming took Xiao Chen into the house.
Inside the room, an old man in his eighties was washing up after waking up from a nap.
"Brother Zhang, I brought a young man here for you to meet. He's Xiao Chen, a classmate of my granddaughter." Song Yunming said with a smile. He said to Xiao Chen, "Xiao Chen, this is Mr. Zhang."
"Hello, Mr. Zhang, I'm Xiao Chen." Xiao Chen said respectfully.
Although he didn't know the identity of the old man in front of him, he looked extraordinary and energetic, with a murderous look in his eyes.
Moreover, he has an aura of majesty without even being angry.
This is a veteran who has fought on the battlefield and a general who has experienced many battles.
