Chapter 346: Once He Adored Her As His Life 29_1

“Jin, I’m scared.” Lu Xuening lightly tugged Dongfang Jin’s sleeve.

When she looked at him, her eyes were full of a soft, vulnerable aura.

“Jin, it’s…

it’s terrifying, can you…

can you sit back next to me?

I’m really scared.”

Next to them, Baili Xia had finally quieted down.

Not hearing her screams anymore, Dongfang Jin also calmed down.

His heart, once more, cooled slightly, because he realized that he still cared about that woman.

He didn’t know whether to blame Baili Xia’s influence on him or his own lack of composure.

He sat heavily back in his seat, fully aware that Lu Xuening clung to him; this time, he didn’t push her away.

Lu Xuening drew closer and gently nestled against him.

Jin did not reject her…

a small joy emerged in her heart, and she drew a little closer.

It was the first time he allowed her to be so close, resting her head on his arm, and he did not find an excuse to avoid her.

For a full year, they had stayed the same until tonight, had their relationship finally progressed?

Unfortunately, the woman next door still deeply affected him.

At this moment, Dongfang Jin was tense, emitting a cold air.

Who would believe it wasn’t for Baili Xia?

…

Baili Xia truly did not dare to glance at the screen for even a second now.

An unintentional glimpse earlier scared her nearly witless.

She doesn’t dare to watch horror movies, from childhood to adulthood, she never watched them unless absolutely necessary.

When she entered, she didn’t notice what movie or session they were supposed to watch.

With “Uncle” by her side, he alone was enough to distract all her attention.

He’s like a big bad wolf, she had to be careful of him at all times!

How could she spare any thought to check what movie they were watching?

“They’re only acting, what’s there to fear?”

Mu Xiaojiu’s large hand finally withdrew from her clothes, no longer messing around.

The little creature was already scared to such a state, to bully her further would truly be inhumane.

Therefore, even if he was averse to it, he ended up behaving.

His large palm rested on her back, drawing her close while patting her back, comforting her a few words.

The feeling of being relied upon by her seemed to be not bad.

“Who brought me to watch such a movie?

I never watch horror movies!”

When she was not looking at the screen, at least Baili Xia was not so frightened.

However, those surrounding shocking sound effects, paired with the terrifying sounds in the movie, were enough to make anyone’s skin crawl.

“Uncle” is mean!

Why watch a horror movie when there are other options?

He liked watching horror films so much, it’s not like he was some psychopath!

This time Mu Xiaojiu was really wronged, he didn’t buy the movie tickets.

It seemed that Ye Hua, finding those romantic films entirely unsuitable for his impressive image…

Had chosen a horror film for him to watch, in favor of other romantic films.

Ye Hua was his man, it was normal to make him the priority but he had overlooked the little creature.

“We can change it next time, okay?”

Mu Xiaojiu did not want to make things difficult for her seeing how genuinely frightened she was.

“We can leave if you don’t like it.”

“What about you?

Do you like it?” She did not deliberately want to make a fuss.

If “Uncle” liked it, she would cover her ears and accompany him until the end.

“I don’t like it.” He came here for her.

He had no interest in these entertainment programs.

Lowering his head, he suddenly leaned closer to her dainty ear.

His voice was lowered, becoming even more magnetic.

“I prefer action movies and ideally, I’d like to perform with you.”
