Chapter 28 I am glad to

The word "afraid" is on the tip of my tongue, but for some reason I just don't want to say it.

Leung Chung-yee is strong-willed.

Her goal since childhood was to become a well-known host, to stand on various stages and face countless audiences with ease.

As the eldest daughter of the Liang family who was spoiled by major families in Beijing, she could have lived a life of luxury like a princess, without having to work or worry about food and drink for the rest of her life, but she did not choose this kind of life.

Instead, she ran out of the dream castle, shed her gilded identity as the eldest daughter of the Liang family, and plunged into the entertainment circle as an ordinary new host.

It took me several years, and I had seen too many people look down on me and looked down upon me. I had sat on the bench countless times before I finally reached the height and position I am today.

She has enough capital to face the extremely outstanding Wen Xun and let him know that she is great.

My weakness is that I’m afraid of ghosts, and it seems a bit embarrassing to talk about it.

"Not afraid."

She blinked, her eyelashes trembling, and stiffened her neck to utter two words.

Liang Songyi didn't know at this time.

He seemed to be pretending to be calm, but to Wen Xun he was extremely obvious.

Wen Xun's eyes were filled with smiles. He raised his hand and put his fist to his lips to hide the arc that he couldn't help but raise.

If her drifting eyes were more determined, and her unconsciously clasped hands were more natural, perhaps he would believe that she was not afraid.

"That's it~"

The ending sound rises.

Wen Xun looked at the others who were already discussing which horror movie to watch.

"It's fine for me and Leung Song-yi, let's just watch horror movies."

Liang Songyi: "..."

She hesitated.

Song Siyu, a horror movie lover, heard this and excitedly came to Liang Songyi's side, "Sister, I didn't expect you also like horror movies! We are like-minded! Come on, come on, let's pick something to watch."

"Should I watch classics or new releases, foreign or domestic... Or foreign ones, because domestic ones eventually become artificial and unexciting."

"This is good. The cover looks scary."

"The following one is also OK, it looks bloody."

"..."

Leung Song-yi was forced to join the team that selected the films, looking at the eerie and terrifying movie covers on the projection screen.

She wanted to look away, but she had already said the words "not afraid", and it would be too late to regret it now.

In the end, Song Siyu and her friends chose a classic foreign horror movie, and everyone else excitedly chose their seats and sat down.

There is no sofa in the audio-visual room, but it is covered with a soft and thick carpet and filled with several single bean bags and pillows.

Liang Songyi and Wen Xun sat next to each other, Song Siyu sat on the other side of Liang Songyi, and then on the other side were Li Jinye, Xu Mu, Zhou Ningning and Yang Run.

Lin Yi was originally next to Yang Run, but later he turned off the lights and ran to Wen Xun with a bean bag.

Liang Songyi now has no time to care about her and Wen Xun. The movie has already started. Thanks to the excellent sound system in the audio-visual room, the eerie sound effects have a kind of panoramic surround effect, which is very immersive.

She silently took a pillow and hugged it to her chest, bent her legs, and swallowed nervously.

The lights were turned off, and only the starry sky light above was glowing faintly.

Wen Xun glanced at her sideways and saw her sitting upright, with a look of serious preparedness, as if she was about to go to the execution ground.

He moved his bean bag closer to her.

The beginning of a horror movie is usually not very scary. It starts with a strange thing happening to the protagonist and slowly unfolds the plot.

Gloomy sky, drizzling rain.

A pair of wellies stepped into a puddle.

and the creaking of the old wooden door, a sign of what was to come.

"what--"

Suddenly! A startled scream!
The camera suddenly moved up, and a pale face that was almost blue suddenly enlarged! The eyes with dilated pupils stared straight at the camera, as if staring at the person outside the screen through the camera.

Liang Songyi suddenly closed her eyes and covered her face with a pillow.

My heart was beating violently.

She regretted it.

You shouldn't say you're not afraid.

Although she hasn't watched a horror movie for more than ten years, she is afraid that this will not change with the passage of time.

No one screamed in the audio-visual room; it was too quiet.

It was so quiet that you could hear some people gasping in fear, while others continued breathing steadily without any change in rhythm.

Some people even breathed faster, obviously excited. No one noticed Liang Songyi hiding behind the pillow - except Wen Xun.

He leaned slightly closer to her and poked her with his hand.

Liang Songyi's body shook violently and her face turned pale.

She turned to look at him with a droopy face.

He lowered his voice and asked, "What are you doing..."

The voice was a little shaky.

Wen Xun didn't mean to scare her, but he didn't know she would be so scared.

"sorry."

There was pain in his eyes.
"I did not do it on purpose."

Liang Songyi took a deep breath and glared at him. "If you did it on purpose, you're done for."

There was unconscious coquettishness in her tone.

"I mean, if you're scared, you can hide behind me." Wen Xun paused and stretched out his arm towards her, "Or, you can grab me."

Leung Song-yi was stunned.

Even the fear I had just felt was forgotten for a moment.

Looking at his hand reaching out to her.

She loosened her grip on the pillow, freed her right hand and reached out carefully.

Wen Xun was also very nervous. His other hand, which was in his pocket, was clenched tightly, and his palm was sticky.

Just before she was about to touch his hand, Liang Songyi turned around and grabbed a little of his sleeve.

"Thank you."

A look of regret flashed across Wen Xun's eyes, but disappeared in a flash.

"Aren't you afraid that I'm completing my mission?"

Leung Song-yi is both naive and playful.

I am scared but I also want to see how the plot develops next.

She was watching the movie when she heard Wen Xun's words. She didn't even turn her head, but leaned forward.

The two of them were already close to each other, and Wen Xun also leaned towards her.

She moved and their shoulders touched.

The fabric rustled as it was rubbed.

"Then you're not afraid, I'm also completing my mission?"

Liang Songyi said, lowering his eyes to look at the place where she was holding his sleeve.

Wen Xun smiled softly with curved lips.

I'd be happy to help you complete your task.

He said silently in his heart.

As the plot unfolds, the pace of the movie speeds up little by little, and the atmosphere of a horror movie has been built up to a very strong level after the previous preparations.

Everyone was staring at the screen. No one was afraid just now, but now some people were like Liang Songyi, grabbing pillows to block themselves.

Those who didn’t have pillows simply hid behind the people around them, or covered their eyes with their hands, leaving only a small gap.

"Boom boom boom!"

In the movie, there was a rapid knock on the door.

The protagonist hiding in the house didn't dare to open the door.

The 'thing' knocking on the door outside seemed like it was about to break in at the next second.

Suddenly, it became quiet.

It is in stark contrast to what happened just now.

"have they gone?"

I don’t know if it’s the people in the movie who are asking this or if it’s someone here who is asking this.

"Sh-don't talk."

Boom!
"what--"

Liang Songyi didn't even have time to see what broke into the room before she closed her eyes and turned around in fear, with her forehead resting on Wen Xun's shoulder.

The hand holding his sleeve suddenly tightened.

The palm of my hand felt warm.
