Chapter 186: How Terrifying (Part 2/2)

To watch or not to watch, that was the question.

Zhao Qingfeng knew that Shen Lingyao was afraid of these things. After thinking about it, he placed the DVD aside and said with a mischievous smile, “Forget it, you wouldn’t dare to watch anyway. What was Zhang Manman thinking, renting such a terrifying movie? The silly deer is already dumb; what if she gets scared and becomes even dumber?”

It was clearly a provocation.

After all, the adults were drinking and wouldn’t finish any time soon.

It was just the two of them at home.

If they encountered a scary scene later, wouldn’t the little girl be scared and dive into his arms?

The thought of Shen Lingyao’s soft body made Zhao Qingfeng unable to stop himself.

How could Shen Lingyao not know what he was thinking?

Hmph!

So, he wanted to take advantage of this princess, huh?

Just wanting to take the opportunity to hug her!

Actually, it wasn’t impossible.

Because for her, love was like a pot of slow-cooked, warm, and sweet soup that needed to gradually heat up.

She blushed and glared at Zhao Qingfeng, “Why wouldn’t we watch? It’s so hot today, I want to be scared and cool down a bit!”

“Really?”

“Of course, go put on the movie, prepare some snacks, and then give me your hand.”

“Why?”

“No reason, I’ll just bite you if I get scared!”

Zhao Qingfeng quickly did as he was told and inserted the DVD into the player.

As the screen came to life, the two of them sat together on the couch.

Zhao Qingfeng picked up a spicy strip, eating while watching.

Although he rarely watched horror movies in his previous life, he was somewhat familiar with some of the actors.

The more he watched, the more familiar he found the male actor appearing at the beginning of the movie. It seemed like he had seen him at a concert, but he just couldn’t remember who it was.

Shen Lingyao had never watched it before.

Hearing the terrifying sound effects from the TV, she immediately leaned nervously against Zhao Qingfeng, their arms lightly touching.

“Yaoyao, want a spicy strip to ease the tension?” Zhao Qingfeng asked, feeling the soft arm against him and smiling wickedly.

“Who’s tense? I’m not tense!” Shen Lingyao said coquettishly, looking at the spicy strip in Zhao Qingfeng’s hand.

“Which one do you want?” Zhao Qingfeng offered.

“Of course, I’ll have yours, the bigger one, I like it.”

Shen Lingyao’s eyes darted around, immediately locking onto the biggest spicy strip in Zhao Qingfeng’s hand, grabbing it, and devouring it cleanly.

The movie continued.

The screen grew increasingly terrifying.

The whole movie was about a story involving a modern person traveling back to ancient times to find a way to eliminate a ghost, spurred by an ancient abnormal romance.

But Zhao Qingfeng’s mind wasn’t on the plot.

Instead, he wondered when Shen Lingyao would cling tightly to him and who this familiar male actor was.

When the movie reached the thirty-minute mark, the terrifying plot finally unfolded.

The screen showed a man who had traveled to ancient times, peeking inside an ancient temple.

Inside, there was a woman in red, facing away from him.

Although her face was unseen, her eerie laughter, coupled with the terrifying sound effects, was enough to make Shen Lingyao tremble.

As she dove into Zhao Qingfeng’s arms, she pointed at the screen, pretending to be brave, “That’s a painted skin demon, I’ve seen this plot in ‘Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio’ before. Watch, the ghost will definitely find him and kill him soon! From now on, I’m the ghost, and you’re the man. Whatever she does to him, I’ll do to you, so you can feel the terror too!”

Indeed.

If it were a typical horror movie, the plot might unfold as Shen Lingyao had predicted.

But she had forgotten that Zhang Manman was a bit of a pervert.

How could a pervert rent a normal movie?

It turned out to be a thorough Hong Kong/Taiwanese R-rated film.

Just as Shen Lingyao finished speaking, the ghost indeed turned her head.

But it wasn’t the terrifying scene she had imagined, but a beautiful face instead.

From then on.

The style of the movie changed drastically.

The man at the temple gate, as if enticed, began to undress one piece at a time. The female ghost did the same, quickly shedding her colorful garments, leaving only a red bellyband covering her chest!

“Ah!”

Simultaneously, Zhao Qingfeng suddenly exclaimed, “Damn, I know who he is now, I saw him at the Super Bowl concert!”
