Chapter 71 Heart Wall The movie soon begins with a long opening shot in black and white, a sky full of flocks of birds and noisy bird calls, and a depressing and eerie weird images and creepy soundtrack made the temperature in the theater seem to drop by several degrees. A little girl wearing a pair of white leather shoes was running hurriedly in the dark corridor, looking back nervously from time to time, her eyes full of panic and fear. The panting sound and shaking camera made people feel strongly uneasy. Chen Mo's heart also began to lift. He didn't know if it was because the air conditioner was on, but he felt a chill on the back of his neck. Faint footsteps could be heard behind the little girl. As the shaking camera zoomed in, the girl's breathing became more and more rapid, and the footsteps behind her became clearer and clearer. It was the sound of leather shoes knocking against the wooden floor, like a death-threatening drumbeat. “Ahhh~ah~ah~ah~ah~” Chen Mo was nervous and heard a woman's soft moan in his mind. The melody starts with a gentle piano and then turns into rhythmic drum beats. There are no lyrics, only a woman's soft moaning throughout, but it sounds inexplicably eerie and strange. Chen Mo was a little overwhelmed at this moment. This horror movie had already made him a little uncomfortable, and now he had his own music in his head?! Chen Mo felt like the little girl in the picture, with no escape. When the little girl turned around in fear again and was about to scream, an old hand with five fingers like hooks instantly grabbed the little girl's face, leaving the little girl whimpering and begging for mercy, tears streaming down her face.
Then the camera went dark, and there was the sound of a machete chopping meat and indistinct wailing. The screen suddenly brightens, and the camera switches to a close-up of a face from the front: The little girl's hideous and horrified expression was frozen on her face. Behind her head, one could still see her own pair of leather shoes stained with blood. Some of the timid people in the theater covered their eyes and even cried out in fear. Some girls who came with their boyfriends have already buried their heads in their boyfriends' arms. Chen Mo was also startled, but he didn't make a fool of himself. He just quickly drank some water to calm down and tried to distract himself. Otherwise, he was afraid that he would have to bury himself in Xu Hongdou's arms, which would be really embarrassing. To be honest, Chen Mo really didn't understand the fun of watching these things. If Xu Hongdou hadn't been next to him, he would have left right now. Chen Mo couldn't help but look at Xu Hongdou and found that Xu Hongdou was watching the show with great interest, eating popcorn leisurely while watching. The popcorn was put into the mouth and bitten down with the teeth, making a crisp sound. Can this thing be eaten with rice? After watching such an agonizing movie, Chen Mo broke out in a cold sweat. Sometimes Chen Mo would secretly close his eyes during the process, not looking at the pictures and only listening to the sounds. But from time to time, someone nearby would shout in surprise, which made Chen Mo's heart go up and down. Just like going to a haunted house, you may not be very scared at first, but you will be infected by the panic and screams of the people around you, which will amplify your fear, and sometimes you don’t know whether you are afraid of people or ghosts. "Ugh." Chen Mo sighed inwardly. He didn't expect that their first movie date would be such an experience. He was terrified. "This one looks better than the previous one, but the plot is a bit worse, and many scenes have obviously been deleted." After Xu Hongdou came out, she commented with an unsatisfied look.
"What do you think?" "Ah, not bad, quite interesting." Chen Mo was stunned for a moment, then nodded in agreement. "It's normal to cut the content. It can't be shown in China without cutting it." "Yeah, that's right." Xu Hongdou nodded. "Then I'll look for the unedited version online. How about we watch it together again?" "Ah? Still watching?" Chen Mo's heart began to beat. "Why, you don't want to watch a movie with me?" Xu Hongdou looked at Chen Mo and asked. "How could that be?" Chen Mo quickly explained, "I think this horror movie is more interesting when you watch it in the unknown." "We've already seen it, and we know what it's going to look like, so it's kind of boring." Xu Hongdou thought about it and nodded, "That's true. I'll find another horror movie to watch next time." "Well, it doesn't have to be a horror movie, we can watch something else." Chen Mo suggested. "I saw a comedy and a romance recently that were both pretty good." "Comedies aren't that funny nowadays, and most romances are ridiculous. Horror movies are more interesting." "Are you afraid of watching horror movies?" Xu Hongdou asked. "How is that possible?" Chen Mo laughed. "When I watched it just now, I even felt that the soundtrack was a little lacking." "Really?" Xu Hongdou tilted her head slightly and looked into Chen Mo's eyes. "Of course." Chen Mo nodded. "I just got some inspiration. When I finish it, I'll let you hear what horror movie soundtracks are like." "Okay, I'll wait." Xu Hongdou nodded. Chen Mo breathed a sigh of relief, "Let's go, we're going back." "Are you going back like this?" Xu Hongdou blinked. "You haven't had enough fun after a day." Chen Mo smiled, "Or is there somewhere else you want to go?" "No, then let's go back." Xu Hongdou shook her head. The two returned to the community. "Okay, you go in first. I still have a task to complete, so I'll watch you go in." Chen Mo joked when they arrived at the door of the house. "it is good." Xu Hongdou nodded, opened the door, and paused. "What's wrong?" Chen Mo couldn't help but ask. "Don't you have anything to tell me?" Xu Hongdou couldn't help but ask. "What?" Chen Mo was puzzled.
"Just the ones you usually say, or sing." "Oh, you want to hear me sing, right?" Chen Mo thought it was because he always sang, but he didn't sing on the first date today, and Xu Hongdou felt it was imperfect. "No problem, then come to my place. I have a lot of songs that I haven't sung for you yet. I'll sing them for you." Chen Mo nodded with a smile. As Chen Mo opened the door and led Xu Hongdou into 1102, he said, "From now on, I will sing for you whenever you want to hear me." "Sit on the sofa for a while, I'll get a guitar." "Okay." Xu Hongdou nodded. Xu Hongdou sat down on the sofa and looked around. I still remember the night of Valentine's Day. It was the first time Chen Mo invited her in at night after he moved in and said he wanted to sing for her. Xu Hongdou remembered that she was still a little nervous at that time. Firstly, the two of them didn't know each other very well at that time, and it was the first time they were alone in a room late at night, so Xu Hongdou couldn't help feeling a little uneasy. Secondly, Xu Hongdou was also afraid that Chen Mo would confess his love to her. After she refused, they were neighbors and would see each other every day, which was a bit awkward. Now Xu Hongdou was a little nervous, but not uneasy. Because she comes here to eat almost every day now, she is already familiar with everything in the house. At this moment, Xu Hongdou's uneasiness was a kind of expectation, looking forward to what Chen Mo would say in his confession. Chen Mo came out with a guitar. This time he didn't sit opposite Xu Hongdou, but sat on the sofa on the side. This way he can keep an eye on Xu Hongdou without being too far away. "Ahem~ Then I'll start." Chen Moqing coughed and gestured. Xu Hongdou nodded with an expectant smile on her face. Chen Mo played the chords lightly, and the melody of the guitar came out faintly, while singing softly: [Looking at the blue sea and blue sky alone The gray in my heart is lighter Dolphins fly by I saw the sunniest smile Good times should be treasured because they are limited. Chen Mo looked at Xu Hongdou beside him and couldn't help but smile knowingly. He sang softly and she listened quietly. This was the best time for the two of them. I learned not to worry too much
Not planning too much can lead to brave adventures Live every day richly and watch every day happily Wooh The first time I saw a cloudy day covering your profile What stories would you like to know? I feel like I understand your specialness】 Chen Mo's lips turned up with a faint smile, and the figure of Xu Hongdou was reflected in his eyes. Xu Hongdou's face was as soft as moonlight, her eyebrows and eyes were full of smiles, and her eyes were like a clear spring. The tenderness and smile that could not be concealed slowly spread across her face. Her eyes are beautiful and her smile is sweet, but her gaze is full of infinite meaning. There is a wall in your heart But I found a window Occasionally a glimmer of warm light Even if you have a wall My love will climb onto the windowsill and bloom Open the window and you will see the sadness melt away You will smell the fragrance of happiness and sunshine] Chen Mo held down the guitar, "How is it?" "It sounds nice." Xu Hongdou nodded and chuckled. "As long as you like it." "Anything else?" Xu Hongdou asked. "Anything else? Well, let me think about it." "Got it. This is a song I wrote before, but I haven't sung it for you. Try listening to it." Chen Mo snapped his fingers. 【. I want to say it every day Tell you how much I love you every day] "How about this one?" Chen Mo said with a smile. "It sounds nice too." Xu Hongdou nodded and looked at Chen Mo quietly. "Why are you looking at me like that? Are you fascinated by me?" Chen Mo joked. "Yes, a little bit." Xu Hongdou did not deny it. "Wow, this is the first time you've admitted that you like me." Chen Mo stood up and subconsciously wanted to get closer to Xu Hongdou to express his joy. "What do you want to do?" Xu Hongdou leaned back on the sofa and stretched out her legs to prevent Chen Mo from getting close. "Give me a hug." Chen Mo spread his arms. "You can hug me, but just go through the process first." Xu Hongdou said. "Process? What process?" Chen Mo blinked, not understanding. "You let me in just to sing, huh?" "What else? Didn't you say you wanted to listen to some music?"
"You're not going to say anything else?" "What?" Chen Mo was a little confused. Xu Hongdou stared at Chen Mo for a while, and seeing that Chen Mo really had nothing to say, she stood up and took her bag, "Then I'll go back." "Oh, okay. You've been playing all day today and I guess you're tired. Go to bed early." Chen Mo nodded and sent Xu Hongdou to the door. "Good night~~" Chen Mo still wanted to say good night to Xu Hongdou. "Bang!" Xu Hongdou had already closed the door. Chen Mo could only put his hand down, somewhat puzzled, "What happened? Wasn't it fine just now?" "Could it be that relatives are coming?" On the other side, Xu Hongdou returned to her home, hugged the pillow on the sofa and started hitting it, "Ah~~ I'm so angry~~". "Tell me, are you doing this on purpose? Are you pretending to be stupid? You are usually so eloquent, but now you can't even say such a simple sentence." Xu Hongdou vented for more than ten minutes before she stopped. Then she couldn't help but pick up her phone to complain to Chen Nanxing. When Chen Nanxing saw the message sent by Xu Hongdou, he couldn't help but slap his thigh and laugh. Chen Nanxing: Hahahaha, I am dying of laughter!! Chen Nanxing: You mean, you’ve said it so clearly, but Chen Mo still doesn’t understand? Xu Hongdou: Yes, do you think he did it on purpose? Chen Nanxing: No way. Chen Nanxing: Didn’t you say that he keeps saying those flirting words every day without repeating himself? Xu Hongdou: That’s why I think he did it on purpose. Xu Hongdou: You said he is not a straight man, I have made it so obvious. Xu Hongdou: He confessed his love to me, I agreed, we went through the process, and then I let him hug me, but he pretended not to understand. Chen Nanxing: Maybe he just really didn’t understand? Chen Nanxing: After all, which man wouldn’t want to hug a beauty like you? Chen Nanxing: I'm drooling just looking at it, slurping~~ Xu Hongdou: Go away, you female hooligan! Xu Hongdou: But to be honest, when we were on our way to the cinema, after I told Chen Mo to confess his feelings, something was wrong with him. Chen Nanxing: How do you mean? Xu Hongdou: Today during the day, he tried every means to hold my hand and wouldn't let go once he did. Chen Nanxing: It’s normal for men to have some little thoughts. Xu Hongdou: But he never thought of holding my hand while watching the movie, and the same was true after he came out of the movie. Chen Nanxing: You're not doubting that Chen Mo is simply enjoying the process of pursuit and will lose interest once he's about to get you, right? Xu Hongdou: That’s not the case. I am still very confident in my ability to judge people. Xu Hongdou: I just don’t know what he is thinking. The main reason was that Xu Hongdou felt that Chen Mo was not as unworldly as Chen Nanxing thought. It was obvious that Chen Mo was only enjoying the pursuit process.
Chen Nanxing: Since you believe in him, don't think too much. Chen Nanxing: Maybe Chen Mo wants to give you a surprise. Xu Hongdou: Forget it, I don’t want to think about it anymore. Let him do whatever he wants. Chen Nanxing: Hehe, my beauty, that stinky man doesn’t understand you, so let me feel sorry for you. Chen Nanxing: Wow, hahaha~~hehehe~~ Xu Hongdou: Coincidentally, Chen Mo was also talking on the phone with Jiang Congwen. "Tell me, how can I express my feelings more sincerely?" Chen Mo thought that if Xu Hongdou was sincere, there would at least be some ceremony or something, but he didn't expect Xu Hongdou's requirements to be so low, or even no requirements at all. "Sincerity? When giving gifts, the more expensive it is, the more sincere it is." "Can just spending money be considered sincerity?" Chen Mo was speechless. "Why not? You bought a house and gave the property certificate as a gift. Who would say you are insincere?" "I need something that symbolizes love, not just money." "If you write both of your names on the property deed, it will symbolize love." "."Chen Mo. "Can you accept the red beans I give you?" Chen Mo said unhappily. "If Hongdou doesn't accept it, I will." Jiang Congwen suggested: "If you don't want to accept the red beans, you can write my name on them to symbolize our friendship. I don't mind that they are unwanted by others." "Get lost, I'll give it to Hongdou. From now on, we're a family. The meat is rotten in the pot, what's the point of giving it to you?" Chen Mo cursed. "Godfather, we are also a family." Jiang Congwen said seriously, "You gave me a suite, and I will use the rent to support you in your old age." "Oh, after all, I still have to pay for my retirement. You are really my good son." "You can't say that. Money can't buy companionship or friendship. Friendship is priceless." "Then I won't give you the house, but you will provide for my retirement?" "piss off." "A four-bedroom apartment for you?" "Godfather, where are you? I will come to your knees and serve you now." "Look, this can't be changed?" After joking with Jiang Congwen, Chen Mo felt that the gloomy feeling he had just had while watching the horror movie was gone. Otherwise, as soon as Xu Hongdou left, Chen Mo was alone in the room. When he opened the bathroom door, he would subconsciously touch his neck, because his mind would uncontrollably recall the horrific scene from the movie, as if his head would fall off as soon as he opened the door. In the cinema, Chen Mo's palms were sweaty after watching this horror movie. He didn't even hold Xu Hongdou's hand, for fear that Xu Hongdou would know that he was afraid of this thing.
