Chapter 12 (2/2)

Lin ShuYi continued to ignore the glasses and fixed his attention on the popcorn. “Is it tasty?”

Shen Fu: …

He finally discovered that the question that Lin ShuYi asked him the most was: Is it tasty? Which is more delicious?

“This flavor is caramel butter. Since you like sweet foods so much, I think you should like it too.”

Lin ShuYi picked one up and looked at it. Was this corn? He seemed to recall that there were some people selling this kind of food on the streets of Da Yan’s capital city, but it felt more unrefined and the color was not so beautiful. It was a snack bought by the children of poor families. He wanted to eat it before, but Song Yan always said that it was only something for children to eat.

Then he put it in his mouth. It was very sweet and there was even a crisp outside shell that melted after being bitten into. The pleasantly sweet taste permeated his entire mouth, but the popcorn had already completely melted by that time.

“Why do I feel like you haven’t even eaten popcorn before?” Shen Fu was suspicious.

Lin ShuYi was too lazy to pay attention to him and he kept eating one popcorn after another.

Shen Fu leaned over and raised his hand, putting the glasses on Lin ShuYi’s nose bridge.

“What are you doing?” Lin ShuYi did not notice the glasses that Shen Fu was holding at all. Since he did not know what Shen Fu was going to do, he shrank back.

“Don’t move.” Shen Fu reached out and held Lin ShuYi down. Then he put the glasses properly on him.

Whispers came from behind them. Shen Fu listened to the whispers and the corner of his mouth twitched as he acted like he didn’t hear it.

The lights all around them suddenly darkened at this time. The film had began. Lin ShuYi, whose line of sight had suddenly darkened, was unused to this and started blinking.

Then a bloody head popped out on the screen. It and looked as if it had rolled into Lin ShuYi’s face. The eyes in the head were wide open and staring at him, like it had died with a remaining grievance. Lin ShuYi almost cried out in terror, and in the next moment, then he suddenly clutched Shen Fu’s hand.

Shen Fu forgot to tell him that The Carnage was a horror movie.

In fact, Lin ShuYi would not be afraid if such a scene was displayed in front of him normally. Although a high official of the Ministry of Appointments was a civil official, it did not mean that he had never seen a dead person. Lin ShuYi was unprepared and had not seen such a scene for a long time. What’s more, it was clearly a movie, yet he did not know why the head had rolled in front of him and was so real that he could reach out his hand for a touch.

It seemed that everyone did not expect such a frightening scene at the beginning. The screams in the cinema echoed one after another and the whispers from behind had turned into screams. Shen Fu narrowed his eyes. He was not frightened and quickly turned to look at Lin ShuYi. As a result, Lin ShuYi clutched at his arm and it was so painful that he grimaced.

“I say, don’t pinch me.”

Lin ShuYi turned to look at him and was spitting in anger, “What the hell did you do?!”

Shen Fu did not understand this situation.

“That head seemed like it was rolling in front of me!”

Shen Fu, “It can’t be that you also don’t know about 3D?”

Shen Fu was fully convinced that Lin ShuYi must have migrated from where the cavemen at the top of the mountain were living.

Besides that horrific scene in the beginning which caught him off guard, the bloody scenes in the after did not scare Lin ShuYi anymore. The plot was very fascinating and even Shen Fu seemed to be enchanted. However, other people could not handle it. For example, the girl behind Lin ShuYi screamed throughout the whole movie. She also kept screaming even when the handsome detective, who was the protagonist, came out.

“There’s nothing frightening about this. Why are you screaming?” The other girl sitting next her asked helplessly as she face-palmed.

The girl rolled her eyes exhilaratingly, “This time it’s because he’s handsome!”

Everyone: …

“But speaking of it, the two in front of us are also very handsome! They’re even sitting together, and just now, that one helped put the glasses on him, so cute! The handsome guys should get together and be gay. It’s so meng/moe that it’s killing me.

Her bestie, “Can you lower your voice? Everyone can hear what you’re saying.”

Shen Fu: …

The girl behind had screamed herself hoarse by the end of the movie. Yet she was still squealing, “Ah ah ah ah! ! It’s really deserves to be called a box office champion! It’s so good!”

Did she really think that it was so good even after being frightened like that?

“Zhou XunLiang is so handsome!” That should be the key point. “And the two who were sitting in front of us were so cute! Close gay buddies ah, close gay buddies! This trip was really not in vain! I took pictures secretly, but unfortunately it’s all blurry. Otherwise, I’d have sent it out to my circle of friends!”

Her bestie, “…They haven’t left yet and are just behind you.”

The girl looked back and saw Shen Fu’s chilly smile and the seemingly elegant and indifferent Lin ShuYi, who was actually just rather baffled.

“What does gay buddies mean?” Lin ShuYi cocked his head. He had heard this phrase too many times. Moreover, he had the feeling that it did not have a very normal meaning.

Shen Fu and the bestie: …

“Gay buddies are… Mhm mhm mhm…”

The girl’s bestie came up and covered the mouth which was about to release evil through her wagging tongue. She gave a forced laugh as she nodded to Lin ShuYi, “I’m sorry, she’s just shooting her mouth off. It’s nothing but nonsense.” Then she dragged the girl away.

Lin ShuYi was even more baffled. He looked at Shen Fu. Shen Fu grimaced, “It just means that we have a good relationship.”

Was that so? Lin ShuYi thought for a moment and said after quite a while, “Then we can be considered as gay buddies.”

Shen Fu had not been paying attention and was so stimulated by Lin ShuYi’s sentence that he nearly choked to death. Seeing Lin ShuYi look over, he hurriedly acceded, “Yes, we are gay buddies, close gay buddies.”

Shen Fu, Why do I have that guilty feeling like I’m taking advantage of him ah…
