Chapter 189 Horror MovieBy the time we finished eating hotpot, it was already past five in the afternoon.
Lu Linglong took out a tissue and wiped the corners of her mouth.
Jiang Lan was also full and leaned back in his chair with his eyes squinted.
"What are you going to do later?"
Lu Linglong thought for a while, then looked up and said:
"How about... watching a movie?"
Jiang Lan was stunned.
Watching a movie is a very unfamiliar word to him.
In fact, he had never been to a movie theater since he was born in this life.
No… maybe he has been there, but even if he has, that was when he was a child and he can hardly remember it now.
After that, he was taken into a bunker at the age of seven and did not come out until twelve years later.
After I got out, I spent most of my time in the company and had no time to watch any movies.
But it seems that this is all a couple can do on a date.
Shopping, eating and watching movies, even someone like Jiang Lan who has never been in a relationship before knows this.
As for after watching the movie...
I can only say that those who understand will understand.
However, Jiang Lan did not think too much about it. It was really too outrageous that there was a program after watching a movie on the first day of confirming the relationship.
"Let's go." Jiang Lan stopped thinking about it and stood up from his seat.
Lu Linglong did the same, she stood up and held Jiang Lan's hand.
The place where they are now is a large chain shopping mall, and the cinema is right next to the hot pot restaurant.
In fact, Lu Linglong had never been in a relationship before. It was just that she saw a cinema before entering the hot pot restaurant that she suddenly thought of going to see a movie.
Now that Lu Linglong was holding his hand, Jiang Lan no longer had as many inner thoughts as before.
Now, he only had one thought left in his mind.
Why is Lu Linglong's hand so soft?
Arriving at the front desk, Lu Linglong paid the bill as usual.
Jiang Lan had no idea at all that he was a gigolo and acted as if it was a matter of course.
Hand in hand, they walked to the nearby cinema. Both of them seldom came to such places and were not very familiar with movies. They just bought a ticket for a movie that had recently opened, checked the ticket and walked into the screening room.
Sitting in adjacent seats, the two looked at each other, and no one spoke.
Today is a weekday and there are not many people in the cinema. Apart from Jiang Lan and Lu Linglong, there are only about a dozen people.
There wasn't even anyone sitting in the same row with them.
Just like that, the atmosphere fell into a strange silence.
Until ten minutes later.
"Dongdongdong-dangdangdang--"
Perhaps because the noise was too loud, Lu Linglong's hand trembled subconsciously.
Jiang Lan was also startled.
Is this movie so loud?
After the opening animation ended, a huge ghost face suddenly occupied the entire screen.
Jiang Lan was stunned again.
Horror movie?
Jiang Lan took out the movie ticket and with the faint light coming from the screen, he was able to see the name on the ticket clearly.
The Wailing
He curled his lips and said he didn't care about it when he bought the ticket just now.
But what’s the old saying?
Come here.
Anyway, Jiang Lan is not particularly sensitive to this kind of thing.
He is not afraid of people, so why would he be afraid of ghosts?
Lu Linglong's reaction was slightly different from Jiang Lan's.
The moment she saw the ghost face, she subconsciously reached out and grabbed Jiang Lan's hand, but her eyes were still fixed on the big screen. Instead of fear, there was some excitement in her eyes.
Jiang Lan and Lu Linglong held hands and stared at the screen together, watching the plot of the movie advance bit by bit.
It was completely different from other couples. Most couples said they were watching horror movies, but in fact, most of them were just trying to enhance their relationship or take advantage of the opportunity to have some fun. But Jiang Lan and Lu Linglong...
From beginning to end, they both stared at the screen without saying a word to each other.
Only the sudden moment of terror could make Lu Linglong tighten her grip on Jiang Lan's hand a little.
But Jiang Lan also knew that it was not because Lu Linglong was afraid. On the contrary, she was excited.
……
More than two hours passed quickly, and Jiang Lan and Lu Linglong walked out of the screening room hand in hand.
The sudden strong light made Jiang Lan squint his eyes unconsciously.
The movie...can't be called interesting, nor boring, anyway, if you want to kill time, it's a decent movie.
At least that’s what Jiang Lan thought of him.
Of course, if you have a low acceptance of horror movies of this type, this may not be the case.
Lu Linglong raised her head slightly and looked towards Jiang Lan.
"Where to go now?"
Jiang Lan took out his cell phone and checked the time.
It's already eight o'clock in the evening.
After thinking for a while, Jiang Lan said, "It's a bit late, let's go to bed."
Lu Linglong paused and stood still.
Two blushes quickly crept up her pretty face.
After hesitating for a while, she gritted her teeth.
"Isn't this... a bit too fast? But... if you want..."
Jiang Lan: "?"
Why did he think of that?
What is he thinking?
He wants to go to sleep alone!
Jiang Lan quickly reached out to cover Lu Linglong's mouth and said, "What I mean is that it's very late. I can just find a place to sleep by myself. As for you, it's time to go home."
Jiang Lan was really impressed by Lu Linglong's train of thought. He didn't know what was going on in this little girl's mind all day long.
The blush on Lu Linglong's face quickly faded, replaced by a somewhat embarrassed expression.
She said that Jiang Lan didn't seem to be such a frivolous person.
So just now... was she being overly sentimental?
Thinking of this, Lu Linglong couldn't help but hold her forehead.
But soon, she adjusted her mood and said to Jiang Lan:
"Come on, I'll take you to a nearby hotel."
"No need." Jiang Lan shook his head, "I'll take you home first."
Although he was not a gentleman, it was already quite late. Jiang Lan could not let the girl take him to his residence and then leave by himself.
Especially since this little girl is now his official girlfriend.
Lu Linglong wanted to refuse, but Jiang Lan took her hand and walked forward closely.
"obedient."
Hearing Jiang Lan's deep voice, Lu Linglong felt her heartbeat slow down for some reason, and she agreed subconsciously.
"Um……"
The two walked out of the mall, Jiang Lan hailed a taxi on the side of the road, and he and Lu Linglong got into the car one after another.
After getting in the car, Lu Linglong reported an address and then said to Jiang Lan:
"At that moment..."
Before she could finish, Jiang Lan interrupted her and said:
"It's okay. After I send you back, I'll just find a place to stay nearby. Don't worry about me."
Anyway, I have to go to the Lu family for a family dinner tomorrow, so it would be more convenient to live nearby.
The taxi drove slowly for nearly half an hour before finally stopping outside a courtyard that was simple yet elegant.
This place is the Lu family residence.
Owning such a large yard in the center of the imperial capital is not something that can be achieved with just money.
As one of the four major families in the alien world, the Lu family’s influence can be imagined.
