Not wanting Su Jiu to see him, Rong Si quickly turned away and held her hand as they continued to walk in. He found a seat and sat down.
Rong Si sat beside Su Jiu. Before long, the movie started.
Initially, Su Jiu felt that it was just a horror movie. Everything was fake, and she had no need to be afraid. Hence, in a relaxed mood, she drank the milk tea and ate popcorn as the movie played.
However, the makeup and sound effects of this movie were too good, and the scene was too realistic. A sinister and terrifying atmosphere had surrounded the entire viewing hall, and the audience was so silent that you could hear a pin drop. As the plot progressed, Su Jiu felt a chill run down her spine, and her heart was in her throat. She was afraid that something scary would suddenly appear on the screen. She did not even have the mood to drink the milk tea and just stared at the big screen with fear.
In the next second, a demon with disheveled hair suddenly appeared on the screen. It smiled sinisterly with its white fangs exposed. Many of the girls in the theater instantly screamed in fear. Su Jiu’s heart almost jumped out of her throat!
She knew that horror movies would definitely be scary, but she hadn’t realized that it would be this scary. She didn’t dare to watch anymore!
Su Jiu was on the brink of tears. She turned her head and secretly glanced at the young man beside her.
Rong Si was calmly sitting with his forehead resting in one hand as if he was watching a boring documentary instead of a horror movie.
Sensing that the little girl was restless and seeing her pale face through the light from the big screen, Rong Si immediately asked, “Is it too scary?”
Su Jiu said stubbornly, “Not scary! Not scary at
all!”
Just as she said that, screams came from the audience again. The girl sitting beside Su Jiu jumped into her boyfriend’s arms and kept saying, “It’s too scary, too scary!”
Su Jiu did not dare to look at the terrifying scene that made them scream. Instead, she instinctively closed her eyes.
Rong Si hoped that Su Jiu would be like that girl and throw herself into his arms. Unfortunately, Su Jiu stubbornly sat with her red lips tightly pursed. Her forced calm appearance was extremely cute.
When the screaming stopped, Su Jiu carefully opened her eyes. At this moment, another scary scene appeared on the screen. Before she could see clearly, a warm hand covered her eyes.
Amidst the screams, she heard Rong Si’s magnetic voice. “Don’t be afraid, I’m here.”
His voice seemed to have some kind of magical power, and Su Jiu’s heart, which was hanging in the air, instantly relaxed. Even though the eerie and terrifying sound effects were still surrounding her, making her hair stand on end, she was no longer afraid.
She felt even more embarrassed!
She was already an old auntie, yet she could not compare to her baby. A mere horror movie was enough to make her so scared, and she still needed her baby to comfort her. It’s too embarrassing!
Rong Si let go of her only after the scary scene was over.
Su Jiu opened her eyes and coincidentally met his deep black eyes. Thinking about how embarrassed she was just now, she whispered in embarrassment, “Erm, I need to go to the washroom.”
Su Jiu did not want to watch this horror movie anymore!
Under Rong Si’s scrutinizing gaze, she got up from her seat and ran away quickly.

Su Jiu washed her face in the washroom and took a few deep breaths to calm her emotions before walking out. She did not expect to see Rong Si standing in the corridor outside.
