Chapter 91 Chapter 91 Video Room

Until Lin Weidong and Lin Jing disappeared from the gate of the design institute, Hu Wenli still couldn't remember where she had heard this name before.

"What on earth do you want to do there!"

Lin Weidong, who had been patient all the way, finally grabbed Lin Jing's shoulder and questioned her coldly.

He went around the yard and asked around about how Wang Nian and Shi Xiangming were doing. He couldn't figure out why they did this.

"Just take a look, why are you panicking?" Lin Jing raised the corners of her lips and smiled faintly.

"Why are you going to visit a couple's home..." Lin Weidong obviously didn't believe it.

“I just want to see it!”

Lin Jing's change is not only in her weakening self-esteem, but Lin Weidong, who grew up with her, often can no longer see what his sister is thinking.

Seeing her turn around and leave with a cold look on her face, I decided to catch up with her and continue asking questions.

Lin Jing kept hearing Lin Weidong's voice. She frowned and the anger that she had suppressed with great difficulty suddenly rose again.

"I just want to see how good the wife he chose is. I just want to ask God why he can't let me live such a good life... I just want to see where I am lacking..."

A series of angry shouts instantly put an end to Lin Weidong's chattering. His distorted face no longer had any trace of his former youthful and handsome appearance.

"So what happened after you saw it? You were happy! You were happy!"

These rhetorical questions seemed calm, but they all pointed directly to Lin Jing's mood at the time.

She was in agony at the moment. Her fingers unconsciously tightened the corners of her clothes and she pulled up the corners of her mouth to smile to express her disdain, but she couldn't deceive herself. In the end, she just glanced coldly at Lin Weidong.

She admitted that she was jealous... so jealous that she couldn't control her body and wished she was the one living in that big house.

After a long silence, Lin Jing suddenly sighed: "Don't worry! I have no other thoughts about Shi Xiangming, and I won't hinder you from being a good person!"

After saying that, he lowered his head and hurried towards the dormitory.

As to whether it is true or not, even she herself probably doesn't know it clearly at this moment.

Lin Weidong didn't believe it, but he couldn't bring himself to continue questioning. He even worried that if he continued to question, his sister's old feelings would rekindle...

He could only watch the person walk away silently, and the uneasy feeling in his heart became stronger and stronger.

***

Anhuai City, Jiaochang Street.

"Mom, how long will it take to get to my second aunt's house?"

The family had been walking along the street for more than ten minutes but had not seen the cinema that Shi Guizhi mentioned. Instead, the stench from slaughtered cattle and sheep on both sides of the street made Shi Wan feel sick.

"Let your dad carry you on his back, so you don't get your new shoes dirty."

Not only was there a foul stench, but the original drainage ditch had already been filled with filth, causing blood to flow onto the road.

Wang Nian grabbed Shi Feiying, who was trying to sneak into someone's shop to watch the sheep being slaughtered, and hurried to the right, where it was a little cleaner.

"Let's come here directly to buy beef and mutton in the future. They are so fresh!" Shi Xiangming was happy.

Passing through the shantytown, Shi Shuwen finally saw a two-story building not far away.

On the wall facing the road, five big characters "Movie Theater" were painted.

Although this isn't a movie theater, but... there's only one two-story building around, so it must be this one!

"Mom, is that it?" Shi Shuwen asked.

"Go ask." Shi Guizhi said that one would know as long as they walked to the front of the cinema. At that time, Wang Nian was still wondering what kind of structure would be next to the cinema.

When I walked up to it and took a look, I could only smile silently.

You will know once you get here... because Wang Nian found He Jian and Shi Guizhi sitting at the door selling tickets.

There was a table with a sign on it saying "Ticket Office".

There were two doors on the first floor, both covered with black cloth. The sounds of fighting from two different movies were intertwined, and people kept buying tickets to go in.

"Second sister, brother-in-law."

Let’s not talk about whether this cinema is opened by He Liang... Aren’t He Liang and Zhou Shanxiu getting married today?

"You are here, come and sit down!"

Shi Guizhi casually put the money she had just collected into the drawer, stood up and led the family to the table.

"Sister, what are you doing..." Shi Xiangming was also puzzled.

"Sit down first and talk slowly."

Shi Guizhi walked briskly, as if there was wind under her feet, and her eyes were full of confidence. Even He Jian was very energetic.

"It's a long story... Didn't your brother-in-law and I go to Guangdong with He Liang and his wife?"

In order to follow his children to Guangdong, He Jian resolutely resigned from his job at the school. The old couple originally planned to live there for a long time.

But no matter what they thought, they were completely unable to adapt to the weather and pace of life there.

Shi Guizhi fell seriously ill twice just a few months after she passed away. After she recovered, she said she didn't want to stay there anymore and decided with He Jian to return to Anhuai to retire.

Before they could even raise the issue, they had to put it on hold due to problems at the factory.

"We don't know what the problem is."

Shi Guizhi spread her hands, and at this moment another man who wanted to watch a movie suddenly came. She collected the money and showed him the way in one go before continuing her talk.

The factory ran into a big problem, and they only knew that if they didn't handle it properly, they would not only go bankrupt but also have to pay money.

Finally, He Liang found a big boss he knew before for help. The boss offered to help him through this difficult time on the condition that he sell the factory and the customers together.

In other words, if you don't sell the factory, you will lose money, but if you sell the factory, you can still make a profit and leave.

"He Liang has no one to rely on in Guangdong. Even if he can keep the factory this time, there is no guarantee that he won't be targeted next time..." Shi Guizhi saw this very clearly.

"So they came back not only to get married this time, but also planned to... open a video studio?" Wang Nian paused and continued.

Shi Guizhi smiled and nodded.

"We just bought the video studio last week. Look, business is pretty good!"

Wang Nian: “…”

"Since the business is booming, why would they transfer it to you?" Shi Xiangming directly asked the question in Wang Nian's mind.

"It's said that it was He Liang's former friend who had to transfer it because his family was in urgent need of money. What's the matter..." Shi Guizhi saw that Wang Nian and Shi Xiangming were not smiling, and her heart suddenly skipped a beat: "Is there something wrong?"

He Jian also started to get anxious: "I should have asked He Liang to ask you guys."

"I'll go call He Liang right away." Shi Guizhi stood up quickly.

Wang Nian forced a smile and nudged Shi Xiangming with his arm: "We are not businessmen, so our vision is not as good as He Liang's. I just didn't react quickly enough..."

Since He Liang didn't come to ask his uncle and aunt, it means he has his own ideas. They can't interfere with other people's decisions.

"I'm scared to death." Shi Guizhi patted her chest repeatedly, still a little unconvinced: "If you find any problems, please tell us."

"Don't worry, second sister." Wang Nian comforted her.

Although she said that she had a feeling that something was not right about this cinema, can she really say... My feeling was that something was not right, and you should trust my intuition.

A narrow-minded person might think that the couple just can't stand their nephew making money.

"Where are He Liang and the others?" Wang Nian changed the subject and stopped talking about the video studio: "You're getting married today and you don't even have a day off!"

"He Liang and Zhou Shanxiu went to the train station to pick up her parents. It seems like they are almost there." Shi Guizhi glanced at the clock on the wall.

For such a big event as marriage, the bride's parents must be invited over. If they hadn't been delayed by something back home, they should have arrived two days ago.

"Just invite family members?"

"He Liang hasn't been in touch with his old friends for many years, and your brother-in-law resigned from his job a long time ago, so today we invited our family to come and have some fun."

"What about my parents..."

"I asked He Liang to deliver the letter last week, but I didn't know if my elder brother and his wife would come today... It's okay if they don't come, we can just have a good time together."

During the chat, seven or eight people entered the video room one after another.

Shi Xiangming's expression became more solemn. His eyes stayed on the people coming in and out for a moment and then moved to the place where the posters were posted.

There are only two pieces of film titles posted on the wall. There is a large blank space on the right. You can still tell that there should have been several rows of words written on it originally, but now it is just covered with a layer of white paper.

Shi Xiangming quietly held Wang Nian's hand under the table and gestured towards the blackboard.

"What's the movie?" Wang Nian pursed his lips silently, holding down the restless Shi Feiying with one hand: "My Feiying's butt is on fire."

"Look, I was so busy having fun that I forgot to let the three children in to watch the movie." Shi Guizhi laughed.

He Jian pointed at the poster and asked Shi Shuwen which movie she wanted to watch.

A war film and a martial arts film.

Martial arts TV dramas are popular nowadays, and becoming a hero has been added to many children's dreams. Before He Jian finished speaking, Shi Wan quickly raised her hand and asked to watch a martial arts movie.

However, her dream is not to be a chivalrous hero, but a tragic love story between a hero and a heroine.

Shi Shuwen shook his head: "I don't have anything I want to watch, so I'll just go watch a martial arts movie with Xiaowan."

"Where's Feiying?"

"Then let's watch a fight movie!" Shi Feiying wanted to choose a war movie, but her brothers and sisters all chose martial arts movies, so she could only follow their choice reluctantly.

Wang Nian also stood up and said, "Then you two can chat, I'll join in the fun."

The black cloth was very heavy. When I lifted it, the sound of the movie inside was deafening. I didn't expect that the sound insulation of this house, which looked very ordinary from the outside, was so good.

The screening room is not big, only about 50 to 60 square meters, and consists of four rows of wooden chairs.

Wang Nian noticed that behind the chair there was a row of "private rooms" similar to partitions with curtains hanging on the doors, and inside was a double sofa.

As soon as Shi Feiying came in, she saw the row of private rooms and immediately wanted to rush in excitedly.

"Go sit there, you can't see clearly behind you!"

Wang Nian quickly grabbed Shi Feiying and led her to the second row, letting Shi Wan and Shi Shuwen sit on both sides.

Before leaving, he specifically told Shi Shuwen: "Keep an eye on your brothers and sisters, and don't let them sit on the sofa in the back."

Shi Shuwen nodded.

Before Wang Nian left, he glanced at the private room a few more times.

It's strange to have a private room in a video room, not to mention there's a curtain on the room... It looks weird no matter how you look at it.

Perhaps because Wang Nian looked at it too frequently, He Jian also looked over.

"The private room was left by the previous boss."

"I don't see many people sitting here!"

"Xiaoliang said that there are fewer people during the day, but the private room can be full at night."

"Are Xiaoliang and his wife selling tickets tonight?" Wang Nian immediately figured out the problem.

"Xiaoliang said that your second sister and I are older and need to have a good rest. We collect tickets during the day and they guard at night."

"What time does the video room open?"

"Sometimes it's two o'clock, sometimes it's three o'clock, I don't know exactly, we go to bed early at night..."

Wang Nian: “…”

It seems that the problem should occur at night...
