Chapter 53: A good way to treat horror movies

Jiang Baiwan looked at the screen of the phone, and he couldn't believe it—Ji Chen actually agreed to her and said that he would drive her to the cinema on Saturday.
...Why didn't she find out that Ji Chen is so approachable before?
Jiang Baiwan put down his cell phone, but he still didn't get much back for a while. But since you have already made an appointment, it is not a waste of movie tickets, right?
On Saturday, Ji Chen went downstairs to Jiang Baiwan's house as agreed. When Jiang Baiwan came down to see him, he was still surprised by Ji Chen's appearance-today Ji Chen wore a dark blue casual suit, and his hair fell softly on his head, and it didn't look normal. Hard aura. When Jiang Baiwan got in the car, she even smelled a hint of men's perfume.
"Ji Chen, you dressed up today..." Jiang Baiwan tried to find a suitable adjective from his own speech inventory, "It's quite grand."
Ji Chen was a little unsure whether Jiang Baiwan was complimenting him for a while, he could only nod his head, pretending to be calm: "Make appointments with friends, don't be rude, this is my basic rule."
With friends...
Jiang Baiwan was a little lost inexplicably. She bit her lip and quickly changed the subject: "What perfume did you spray today? It smells good." As she said, she wrinkled her nose again: "Scent of cold fragrance, He looks a lot like you."
"Do you like this taste?" Ji Chen's brows and eyes were soft, and his low voice echoed in the car, which easily made people relax their vigilance.
Jiang Baiwan nodded: "Well, I really like the taste."
Ji Chen immediately decided to use this perfume when he came out to meet again next time.
When the car was driving on the road, Ji Chen secretly peeked at Jiang Baiwan from the rearview mirror. It happened that Jiang Baiwan was also peeking at him. The two people's eyes collided, all as if they were electrocuted, and they looked away. After being silent for a while, Ji Chen casually found a topic, trying to break the embarrassment in front of him: "How did you remember that you asked me to go to the movie?"
"Ah? Oh... it's like this," Jiang Baiwan explained quickly, "Mr. Li Huacheng Li came to my store for Mala Tang, and then he gave me two of his movie tickets, saying that his new movie was about to be released. I voted for me to see."
"I originally planned to go alone," Jiang Baiwan unknowingly told the truth, "but in this case, another ticket would be wasted. I first asked Tan Mi. She was not available, so I came. I asked you."
When Ji Chen said this, he didn't know whether he should be happy or unhappy—he thought Jiang Baiwan was asking him to watch a movie, but he was purely looking for a movie partner. And he was not Jiang Baiwan's first choice. Jiang Baiwan chose him when Tan Mi was not available.
"If you want to watch a movie in the future, just ask me directly." Ji Chen endured the humiliation, and when it came to his lips, it became like this, "What is Li Huacheng's new movie? I didn't pay attention, is it an action movie?"
Jiang Baiwan got excited when she mentioned this. She took out two movie tickets from her pocket like a treasure, and held them in front of Ji Chen: "No! It's a horror movie!"
One sentence was said by Jiang Baiwan sonorously, especially when talking about horror movies, the excitement on Jiang Baiwan's face was beyond words. But Ji Chen stiffened for a moment. He glanced at Jiang Baiyu secretly and found that she was really happy, and he was still saying: "I have watched the trailer. It is about a heroine chasing and killing her. The protagonist’s story also reflects a lot of social issues. The trailer also looks very exciting. It is estimated that the feature film will not be too bad."
"Yeah." Ji Chen replied in a low voice, "I actually... I quite rarely watch horror movies."
Jiang Baiwan did not hear what Ji Chen meant. She smiled and said: "It's okay. I rarely watch horror movies, let alone in the cinema. In this way, I will teach you a way. If you really think If you’re scared, put your headphones on."
Ji Chen didn't understand: "Wear headphones? To isolate the sound of the movie?"
"That's right," said Jiang Baiwan, "the best thing is to open the Phoenix Legend, so you won't be afraid."
Ji Chen:...
The two were idle all the way... Finally, Ji Chen parked the car in the underground garage and took the elevator to the cinema together.
Although it was Saturday, there were not many people in the cinema due to the cold weather. When Jiang Baiwan and Ji Chen entered the movie hall, there were only twos and threes of the audience scattered in the huge movie hall.
"Our position is in the middle of the five rows," Jiang Baiwan greeted Ji Chen, "come here."
At this moment, Ji Chen remembered what Assistant Xu had said before. He paused for a while, and then said to Jiang Baiwan nonchalantly: "You sit down first, I'll go shopping."
After speaking, Ji Chen turned around and went out. Jiang Baiwan didn't care, either. After waiting for a while, Jiang Baiwan suddenly smelled the scent of popcorn.
The aroma of caramel was getting closer, and soon lingered around her. At this time, Jiang Baiwan felt the seat next to him shook slightly. She tilted her head to look and saw that Ji Chen held two cups of drinks in her hand, and the lid of the drink was an arc-shaped bowl filled with popcorn. .
"Here." Ji Chen stuffed one of them into Jiang Baiwan's hands, "Eat it while watching a movie."
Jiang Baiwan took the popcorn drink set in a daze. After holding back for a long time, he finally sighed and said, "So you have this hobby..."
At this time, the lights in the theater had dimmed, and Jiang Baiwan naturally couldn't see that Ji Chen's ears were red again. Ji Chen silently stared at the popcorn in his hand, and for a moment he was a little uncertain whether to tell Jiang Baiyu, this cup was actually prepared for her.
Just when Ji Chen hesitated, the movie began. The two immediately closed their mouths and began to watch the movie intensively.
Li Huacheng really didn't praise Haikou. This horror movie was really well made. The sound effects and the use of music can be said to be perfect. With the fullness of the story, people who watch it are almost immersed in it.
Jiang Baiwan looked at the big screen where the heroine was acting as a victim of campus violence, secretly instigating discord, and using tricks to make everyone who had bullied her kill each other, he only felt very thrilling. In particular, the director of this movie seems to have a special preference for cult movies. He also added a lot of blood to his movie, which looks disgusting and refreshing.
And Ji Chen, who was sitting next to Jiang Baiwan, froze there five minutes after the opening. He pursed his lips, without any expression on his face, only the clenched fists showed his heart. When he saw the supporting actors hacking one of them with a knife on the big screen, Ji Chen's breathing stopped for a while, and then he recovered.
"Wow... the blood is made like real, and the intestines are flowing out." Jiang Baiwan sighed softly, and she subconsciously poked Ji Chen, "Hey, did you see it?"
Ji Chen replied vaguely, without making a specific response to Jiang Baiwan's words. Jiang Baiwan was a little puzzled. She turned her head and observed Ji Chen in the dark for a while, and then lightly poked Ji Chen's fist with her hand, and then suddenly realized: "...Ji Chen, if you are afraid, put your earphones on. Right."
Ji Chen didn't answer. In fact, he was a little frightened. The male protagonist played by Li Huacheng is now exploring the heroine's house. The old house looks gloomy and terrifying, as if a mouth wide open in the dark, waiting to be swallowed by people in the future.
Just when Ji Chen was very nervous, Jiang Baiwan who was next to him suddenly patted the back of his hand gently. Ji Chen looked at her, and Jiang Baiwan handed the contents inside to him—a pair of headphones.
Ji Chen was stunned. He subconsciously looked at Jiang Baiwan. In the dark, Jiang Baiwan compared him with a headset on. Ji Chen pursed his lips, and finally put on the headphones.
As soon as the headphones were put on, the sound of the movie was reduced a lot, even if the picture in front of him was still terrifying, but Ji Chen's inner fear was indeed reduced.
He sighed softly, and was about to quietly thank Jiang Baiwan, but at this moment, the sound of lively music suddenly came from the headphones. Just listen to a powerful female voice singing passionately: "The vast horizon is my love, and the flowers are blooming at the foot of the green mountains..."
Ji Chen:? ? ?
Jiang Baiwan was holding his cell phone and showing Ji Chen a street song playlist, feeling that he was simply witty. She also adjusted the brightness of the phone's screen to the lowest, typed a line of... and sent it to Ji Chen. Ji Chen looked down and saw that the screen displayed: Don't worry, if the Legend of Phoenix is ​​not suitable, there is a miracle of Jiuyue here.
Ji Chen:...
At this time, the male protagonist on the big screen has traced the clues of the female protagonist, and began to follow the clues to find the female protagonist. Obviously it was a very exciting scene, but with the "Let's Learn Meowing Together" in the headset, Ji Chen suddenly lost his fear of horror movies.
After realizing that Jiang Baiwan’s method was really useful, Ji Chen had to sit in a position with a stiff face, watching the life-and-death struggle between the hero and the heroine on the big screen, and the earphones circulated a street song that he had even heard one or two . When the hero and the heroine died together and both fell into the cliff, Tengger's version of "Invisible Wings" came from the headphones.
When the headlights in the theater were on, Jiang Baiwan took off the earphones from Ji Chen's ears with a smile. She also smiled and asked, "How about it, is my method very effective?"
Ji Chen didn't answer immediately, but paused suspiciously-he couldn't tell for a while whether this movie was more terrifying, or the "My Skate Shoes" sung in the headphones for a long time was more terrifying.
However, facing Jiang Baiwan's gaze, Ji Chen was still not ashamed to tell the truth after all. He smiled: "Well, it works, thank you."
"It's okay," Jiang Baiwan patted his shoulder magnificently, "You are not scared by Xiaoniaoyiren, I am already very relieved."
Ji Chen: "..."
