Chapter 256
The owner: "???"
Facilities?
Enjoyment?
Turning his head to see the colorful boxes on the counter, his mouth twitched.
Good heavens.
He's an experienced one!
"I understand! I totally understand, bro!"
The owner's smile almost reached his ears. He quickly collected the money and swiftly grabbed two room cards from under the counter.
Then, he took out two large handfuls of individually packaged wet wipes from deep inside the counter.
Fearing it wasn't enough, he heavily placed a whole pack of extra-thick tissues and a pile of boxes on the tray.
"Supreme VIP, end of the corridor, absolutely no one will disturb you!"
The owner winked at Gu Ran, then lowered his voice, speaking in the tone of someone who had been there before.
"Little brother, I wish you both a... pleasant viewing experience!"
Ye Jinliang scratched the back of his head beside them, a look of pure stupidity on his face.
"Why did you buy so much paper for watching a movie? Are you buying wholesale?"
Pei Susu rolled her eyes speechlessly.
This kid Gu Ran, his schemes were practically bursting onto her face.
The young man's face remained unchanged as he casually picked up the items on the tray.
He pulled the still-dazed Ye Zhenzhen and walked inside.
"To wipe sweat."
He spouted nonsense without looking back.
"Watching too many horror movies makes you sweat easily, it's always good to be prepared."
Ye Jinliang suddenly realized.
"That makes perfect sense, I'm afraid of sweating too, give me a pack!"
The owner looked at Ye Jinliang's silly appearance, then looked at Gu Ran's tall back.
He couldn't help but sigh.
"This chubby kid is only fit to watch movies in this life."
The four of them stepped on the thick and slightly moldy red carpet, walking towards the depths of the corridor.
The lighting in the corridor was even dimmer than in the lobby.
Wall lamps emitted a faint purple light, stretching people's shadows long.
Passing by the tightly closed doors of the private rooms on both sides.
From time to time, one could hear a few sounds that made people blush.
There were girls' exclamations and boys' muffled groans.
And the kind of sound that couldn't be distinguished between surround sound or physical impact.
"Hey? The sound effects of this movie are quite realistic, I even heard the bed boards creaking."
Ye Jinliang sighed as he walked, and enthusiastically wanted to get close to a door to listen.
Pei Susu: "???"
Pei Susu grabbed his ear.
"Ye Jinliang, can you have some dignity! Hurry up and get in!"
Ye Zhenzhen had completely lost her ability to think at this time.
Where is this a corridor?
It's clearly the road to the underworld!
Behind every door lies a ghost!
Whimpering and crying...
It doesn't look like a proper place to watch a movie at all.
She shrank into Gu Ran's arms, her hands tightly wrapped around his waist.
Closing her eyes, she moved forward with deep and shallow steps.
The young man felt the trembling of the delicate body in his arms.
And the faint cold fragrance, the curve of his mouth deepened.
"We're here."
He stopped in front of the last door at the end of the corridor and swiped his card.
With a "beep", the door lock popped open.
A more intense ambiguous atmosphere rushed towards them.
The room was not big, in the center was a huge round bed covered with red velvet sheets.
A hundred-inch projection screen hung on the wall directly opposite.
There was also a coquettish adjustable starry sky roof above.
It seemed to be visual?!
Testing this postgraduate cadre?
Which cadre could withstand such a test?!
The young girl's pretty face gradually warmed up, gently biting her rosy lips.
Glancing at the excited young man beside her, she couldn't help rolling her eyes.
Noticing her movement, Gu Ran raised his eyebrows.
Still rolling, believe it or not, I'll make you roll endlessly?
"This room is so cool!"
Ye Jinliang and Pei Susu exclaimed in the next room.
Gu Ran closed the door backhandedly and locked it smoothly.
The room became quiet, leaving only the young girl's slightly rapid breathing.
"Sister, we're here."
Gu Ran lowered his head and whispered in the young girl's ear.
"How about... we order a movie first?"
Ye Zhenzhen looked at the huge round bed.
Indescribable images flashed through her mind.
"Gu 'Dog' Ran... you... honestly tell me, what exactly are the facilities you mentioned to the owner just now?"
Gu Ran casually threw the pack of tissues and wet wipes on the bedside table, looking at her innocently.
"It's just tissues, what were you thinking?"
"What about the box in your hand?"
The young girl bit her lip.
"I don't know, the owner forced it on me, do you want to take a look?"
Saying that, he handed the box forward.
Seeing this, the young girl immediately turned her head, not daring to look.
Gu Ran slowly approached, trapping the young girl between himself and the round bed, his voice deep and magnetic.
"But, if sister feels that just watching movies is too boring, we can also... do something else?"
On the screen, the opening song of "Ju-on" slowly played.
The eerie, cat-like baby cry sounded exceptionally harsh in the quiet room.
Ye Zhenzhen screamed in fright and threw herself directly into his arms.
Gu Ran took the opportunity to fall onto the round bed, feeling the warm jade in his arms, looking at the screen.
Tsk...
So fragrant and soft...
The touch of the red velvet was slightly rough, carrying the unique staleness and "decency" of a private cinema.
But it made the young girl's skin pressing against him even whiter and more transparent.
"Thump! Thump! Thump!"
The heavy impact sound in the sound effects frightened the young girl so much that she closed her eyes tightly, burying her hot cheeks completely in Gu Ran's chest.
Her body trembled slightly uncontrollably, but her nose was filled with the faint soap scent of the young man.
Gu Ran held her slender waist with one hand, and with the fingers of the other hand, through the thin knitwear.
He gently rubbed the young girl's tense back.
"Sister, the movie has started, what are you doing?"
Gu Ran lowered his head, his lips almost touching her red auricle.
"Throwing yourself into my arms?"
Hearing the words "throwing yourself into my arms".
Ye Zhenzhen suddenly broke free from Gu Ran's arms, "Who... who threw herself into your arms!"
The dim environment still couldn't hide the young girl's blush.
She hurriedly arranged her messy hair.
Forcing the dignity of an older sister, she stuttered to refute.
"I just... I just didn't stand firm! This carpet is too thick, it tripped me!"
Gu Ran looked at her sideways, resting one hand behind his head, looking at her with a half-smile.
"Oh, you tripped quite accurately, right into my arms."
"Gu 'Dog' Ran!"
Having her mind punctured by her stupid younger brother several times, the cold young girl lost her defense, glaring at him angrily and ashamedly.
"Grandpa is here!"
"You die!"
In the next second, the young girl headbutted him, hitting him right in the chest.
The young man dotingly hugged the young girl with one hand, pointing to the Japanese old house that had already appeared on the screen.
"The main movie has started, if you are really scared, it's still not too late for us to check out now."
"Who... who's scared!"
Ye Zhenzhen continued to glare at him, in order to maintain the dignity of "eldest sister as mother".
She climbed to the center of the round bed using both hands and feet, sitting cross-legged.
She smoothly grabbed a red heart-shaped pillow and placed it tightly across her chest.
Then she took a deep breath and "calmly" patted the empty space on the bed beside her.
She raised her chin slightly, putting on the air of an elder.
"Come over! Sit here!"
Her eyes wandered, just not daring to look at the huge screen in front of her.
"What is so scary about this crappy movie? Come here, sit next to your big sister, I will protect you."
Gu Ran looked at her eyes, which were fixed dead on the ceiling, completely afraid to look away.
He really couldn't hold it in and burst into a snort of laughter.
But this time he didn't expose her. Instead, he obediently shifted his body and sat closely beside her.
The moment their shoulders touched, Ye Zhenzhen felt the warmth radiating from him and slowly let out a sigh of relief.
At this moment, the main movie officially began.
On the screen, a cold and gloomy old Japanese-style house quietly emerged.
That characteristic blue filter, paired with extremely heavy and dragging footsteps, made the atmosphere in the entire private viewing room turn eerie.
"Urgh... urgh... urgh..."
A bizarre, rattling sound squeezed from a throat echoed through the speakers.
The girl's just-relaxed body tensed up again, her hands gripping the edge of the throw pillow in a death hold.
Her knuckles were turning pale from gripping too hard.
She quietly nudged the pillow upward, covering most of her face.
Only a pair of beautiful eyes peeked out.
Her gaze darted frantically back and forth between the edge of the screen and Gu Ran's profile.
This was torture!
Boss, why did you have to buy such high-quality speakers for your shop!

Running into his icy fiancée who shows up with a mountain-descending divine doctor to break off their engagement. The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled.

He binds a system that grants him cultivation power based on the number of disciples he has: for each disciple, he automatically gains a year's worth of cultivation every single day!
