Chapter 84
Shen Yan looked at her nervously.
After learning that today was a free-choice date, he set his alarm half an hour earlier than usual, got up, tidied up, and waited outside Yingning's room in case someone else invited her in advance.
As Shen Yan was talking to Ying Ning, he heard footsteps coming from the stairs again.
Everyone looked over and saw He Zhiqian.
After He Zhiqian entered the living room, he couldn't help but glance at Ying Ning and noticed the half of her beautiful bone exposed in her dress.
Then she said to Shen Yan, "Okay."
He Zhiqian clenched his fists, his gaze almost glued to Ying Ning, but to his surprise, she didn't even glance at him.
That's really bold.
He Zhiqian stopped looking at her and turned back to the third floor.
Meanwhile, another gaze from inside the room shifted from Shen Yan to Ying Ning after hearing her answer.
Lu Yuzhou withdrew his gaze, lowered his eyes beneath his slightly curled hair, and remained silent.

0067 quietly asked its master, "Master, didn't you already agree to He Zhiqian's request yesterday?"
Yingning opened the car door and answered it as she got out: "Yes, I agree."
"But he doesn't look well today."
Xiao Qi was puzzled because her master had clearly promised He Zhiqian to stay by his side, so why would he accept Shen Yan's invitation today?
Yingning naturally knew what her system was thinking, and teased Xiao 7: "He Zhiqian won't hold a grudge against me for something like this."
"If he simply says it, would it be too easy for me to keep my sincerity and offer it with both hands?"
"His personality dictates that he is not someone who will easily back down."
"Besides, I only promised to stay by his side after the show ended."
"At this point, it's natural to test his bottom line."
Of all the emotions in the world, those with the highest sunk costs are often the most precious.
Besides, who can win someone's heart with just a few affectionate words?
"Will He Zhiqian still look for his master?" 0067 shook its non-existent little head.
But then he heard his own master say:
"Little 7, can you guess whether he'll come looking for me tonight?"
He Zhiqian is indeed not someone who gives up easily.
But naturally, he didn't look well at that moment.
She even cited feeling unwell as an excuse not to attend today's appointment.

Shen Yan parked the car in the garage, turned to Ying Ning and asked, "Shall we go see a movie?"
"good."
Because the cameraman needed to follow the two of them, the "Mystery of Love" production team specially contacted a movie theater that allowed filming.
Shen Yan stood in front of the ticket machine and studied it for a while.
"Yingning, what movie do you want to watch?"
He glanced at several promotional images; two movies that were currently showing in theaters were "The Haunted Cop Shop" and "Love You For Many, Many Years".
A horror movie, and a romance movie.
Both seem good.
Shen Yan hesitated for a moment, pondering:
Romantic movies are good, especially if two people watch them together...
But what about horror movies...?
"What do you want to see?" Yingning asked him.
But Shen Yan looked unusually conflicted, and after much hesitation, he finally made a decision: "Let's watch a horror movie instead."
After buying tickets, the two also bought popcorn and arrived at the screening room when it was time to go.
Following a suggestion from the production team, Shen Yan specially bought a couple's seat.
*
"The Haunted Cop Shop" is a horror film about a group of disciples with limited Taoist skills who, after encountering a mysterious cave, discover traces of evil spirits and attempt to subdue them, only to be slaughtered one by one.
The two sat in the couple's seats.
In the dim light, Shen Yan secretly glanced at Ying Ning and gave a satisfied, silly smile.
Shen Yan chose the film based on its popularity, and it turned out that this film was indeed popular for a reason, with the screams of fright around him almost never stopping.
Especially the young master next to Yingning.
"ah!"
"Is it over?! Is 'it' over?!"
"Can I open my eyes now?!?"
"!"
"!"
......
"Yingning...I don't want to watch anymore..."
......
Yingning looked helplessly at Shen Yan, who was covering his eyes, and told him the truth:
"Shen Yan, you're afraid to watch horror movies."
Shen Yan peeked through his fingers, leaned forward slightly, and said in a trembling voice, "Ying Ning, don't you think...it looks disgusting?"
Its empty eyes met the audience's gaze, and countless facial features crawled from its neck to its arms, still gnawing at one of the Taoist priests.
"fine."
Yingning looked at the screen and ate another piece of popcorn.
......
After watching the film, Shen Yan was almost completely drained.
What was supposed to be a romantic movie date was ruined by that "evil spirit"!
"Here you go." Yingning handed him a glass of freshly squeezed juice.
Shen Yan took it casually, a hint of disappointment in his peach blossom eyes: "Ying Ning, do you think the date was terrible?"
He lacked confidence in his experience on today's date.
But she shook her head and looked at me very seriously: "I think it's quite interesting."
Upon hearing this, Shen Yan was about to ask her a question.
But before she could regain her confidence, it was immediately shattered by her next sentence.
"After all, it was quite amusing to have someone next to you who was so scared they almost cried."
The faint smile in her phoenix eyes reflected his blushing face.
"you!"
"You've made me angry." The young master was teased by her, but seeing her smile, he only pretended to be angry.
......
The second part of the first episode of "The Mystery of Love" has aired, and its popularity has only increased compared to the previous day.
"Hahaha, I want to see Ningning and Shen Yan!!!"
"Hahaha, the lottery draw is hilarious! Shen Yan got 45."
"Lu Yuzhou chose Ningning???"
"That's really strange. Wasn't it Huihui who went on a date with Lu Yuzhou yesterday?"
Why did he choose Yu Yingning?
"Upstairs, it's normal for them to start dating right away."
"Will Yan Yan be sad?!"
"Haha, I'm a die-hard fan here! I think Ningning has great chemistry with everyone!"
"I'm totally shipping 'The Three Thousand Weak Waters'!!"
"He Zhiqian did indeed choose Ruoruo."
"The CEO's Runaway Sweetheart~"
"Why hasn't Shen Yan finished his push-ups yet, hahaha."
"I'm going to take a screenshot and post it on Weibo to mock him!!"
When Lu Yuzhou picked raspberries for Yingning, another wave of comments flooded the screen:
"I suddenly feel like I've betrayed them..."
"This puppy-like younger brother is so adorable!!!"
"I'm sorry, Shen Yan, your wife has been taken away by someone else."
