Honeyed Marriage - Chapter 127
Chapter 127
After returning home, Ruan Yan went back to the bedroom to take a shower, then walked out of the bedroom. She went downstairs and took a cup of yogurt from the refrigerator. When she walked back upstairs, she happened to see Zhou Mengyan in house clothes standing at the top of the stairs, looking at her.
“Do you want to watch a movie?” he asked.
Ruan Yan walked up to him and froze: “Watch a movie? At home?”
“Well, I will take you to the cinema tomorrow, and I will be at home today.”
Ruan Yan smiled, “Okay.”
He lightly held her wrist and took her to the audio-visual room at home. Ruan Yan went in, only to find that the coffee table in front of the sofa was filled with many snacks she liked.
“When did you prepare these?”
“After I got home in the evening, I wanted to wait for you to come back from school and watch it with you.” But she almost didn’t come back tonight.
Ruan Yan heart warmed and she realized that he really cared about her.
The two sat on the sofa, picking out movies, and finally Ruan Yan chose a Thai horror film “Siamese Yin”.
He raised his eyebrows: “Are you sure you want to watch this?” What if she was frightened later.
“Look… I dare not look at it alone, aren’t you by my side?”
“Ok”
He clicked on play and cast the screen.
Ruan Yan was timid but curious and liked watching movies like this, but she will be very excited when someone is with her.
After the movie started, she opened a pack of popcorn and sat cross-legged next to the man.
This movie tells that the between two female Siamese twins, one is the older sister. The heroine and younger sister have a very harmonious relationship since they were young, but they fell in love with the same man until later.
The male protagonist, who is also the heroine’s current husband, only likes the heroine in his heart, so she(the younger sister) is very jealous and tries to destroy their relationship, and finally she decided to do a separation operation in anger, and she died in an accident during the operation. Then the heroine started to see her sister’s ghost from time to time, and gradually suffered a nervous breakdown.
The movie is not complicated, but the horror atmosphere is particularly well done. As soon as the music sounded, Ruan Yan, who was still eating popcorn, gradually shrank up, half covering her eyes with her palm.
Zhou Mengyan, with a calm face, looked at her as timid as a mouse, and couldn’t help but laugh.
So scared, yet still excited to watch a horror movie?
After a while, the ghost suddenly appeared, and Ruan Yan screamed in fright. She was immediately held in the arms by the person next to her. He patted her on the back, “Scared?”
Ruan Yan heard the words and saw that she was more nervous than him. She got out of his arms and curled her lips with a smile: “It’s okay. Isn’t watching movies just to be so excited?”
“I’m afraid it’s too stimulating, you can’t stand it.”
“…” Nonsense! She’s not that much of a wimp.
So it wasn’t until Ruan Yan was scared to the point of screaming for the third time that Zhou Mengyan once again cast his gaze over.
Ruan Yan touched her nose with a guilty conscience, and heard the man softly say: “Come here.”
She hesitated, sat down obediently, and was embraced by him again, feeling his warm embrace, Ruan Yan’s mind was occupied by him for a while, and the movie stayed completely in her field of vision.
When there is an early feeling of terror, his hand will protect her in advance, faster than she can close her eyes.
Ruan Yan remembered that her roommate in the dormitory said that she wanted to find a boyfriend who would accompany her to watch horror movies. Being protected in his arms and coaxed, “Don’t be afraid,” how sweet it is.
Ruan Yan felt that she also tasted sweetness.
A reversal came after the movie. It turned out that the woman who had been living with the male protagonist was not the older sister, but the younger sister. Out of jealousy, the younger sister strangled her sister to death, and then pretended to be the older sister* to trick the male protagonist into loving her. Finally the younger sister was haunted by the older sister’s ghost and they died together in the fire.
TN: (i.e the heroine)
After the movie ended, Ruan Yan stretched out and found that it was almost one o’clock.
Zhou Mengyan asked:
“After watching, do you want to sleep?”
“Um… yeah.”
She was just about to put her feet down on the sofa when she was picked up by him and walked to the bedroom. Putting her on the bed, with him lying by her side, Ruan Yan was bewildered, “You, what are you doing?”
“Sleeping.”
“?!”
“I’m afraid you’ll be scared alone. I have to stay with you tonight.”
“…” Ruan Yan: “I’m not afraid.”
A dim light was lit in the room. Zhou Mengyan looked at the light in her eyes, and said after a long time, “If you’re not afraid, then I will go.”
Ruan Yan did not answer, he made a move to get off the bed, she suddenly spoke: “You wait-“
He stopped.
Ruan Yan blushed: “Why don’t you stay… I will give you half of the bed.”
The man with his back to her raised his lips silently, and then responded. He turned off the light, opened the quilt and lay in.
Ruan Yan lay flat, her heartbeat was a little chaotic.
The room was quiet for a long time, until his low and direct voice sounded again: “I want to hold you.”
Ruan Yan looked out the window on her side, her cheeks flushed, and said softly, “Then you think about it.”
When her voice fell, she was pulled into his arms.
“Hey-“
He turned to his side, circled her under him, leaned his head against her neck, and sighed softly:
“Give me the benefit of the doubt, Yan’er.”
Ruan Yan felt that the surrounding area gradually calmed down, and she didn’t move anymore.
“Are you going to sleep?” His voice was dull.
“What’s wrong?”
“If you don’t sleep, I will continue to chat with you.”
Ruan Yan smiled, “Go to sleep, I’m so sleepy, good night.”
He gradually laughed, “Good night.”
The next morning.
After daybreak, Ruan Yan woke up from sleep. She turned to her side and lay flat, slowly opening her eyes. Turning her head, she saw Zhou Mengyan leaning on his side, with a smile on his face.
She was startled, and immediately stopped yawning, slightly embarrassed: “You, are you awake?”
“Well, I’ve been awake for a while.”
She covered her face with the back of her hand, wondering if her sleeping face just now was particularly ugly.
After a while, she peeked at him through the gap in her palms, and found that he was still staring at her. Her cheeks turned red, “Why do you keep looking at me…”
Seeing the girl’s shy and cute appearance, he laughed: “Reminiscing about the song you sang last night.”
“…” Can we stop talking about this!
She was so angry that she turned her back to him. A few seconds later, she had an extra hand on her waist, pulling her back into his arms and pressing her back against his chest.
His low voice fell behind her ears: “I’m not laughing at Yan’er.”
“I think you are so cute.”
It would be nice if he discovered her cuteness a little earlier.
Mainly when he was just married, Zhou Mengyan himself was a quiet, silent person who did not like to talk, and Ruan Yan, because of the changes in her family, plus in front of the unfamiliar him and her living environment, had also been converging on her personality and was not used to showing her original lively side.
The two introverts together, can only pray that they are not so awkward. It was only later that he got to know her better and knew what kind of character she had.
Ruan Yan grabbed the quilt, and he praised her cuteness, and she secretly felt sweet in her heart.
After teasing her, the man got up to wash up and Ruan Yan also got up to change clothes.
After he finished washing up, Zhou Mengyan stood by the window to answer the phone, “Well, let’s find a time to pass today.”
Ruan Yan walked to him, the man hung up the phone, turned his head to look at her, his eyes sinking slightly:
“The guide dog agency called and said they found a new family to pair Coco with, so they can send Coco back to the agency today.”
On the way to the guide dog agency, Ruan Yan hugged Coco, her face was drooping, and she was silent.
Zhou Mengyan sat next to her, watching her holding the dog all the way, and didn’t say a word to her. He felt helpless and distressed.
He knew that the girl was kind, and she liked small animals very much. In addition, at the stage when she was just accompanied by Coco, she was at her loneliest stage, and it was also the stage where he put all his focus on work.
At that time, Zhou Mengyan’s position in Ruan Yan’s heart was not as good as Coco.
Coco seemed to guess that the result of this trip was to be separated, and felt Ruan Yan’s sadness. He stuck to Ruan Yan’s arms all the way, licked her, and tried to comfort her.
When they arrived at the guide dog facility, Ruan Yan took Coco down, Zhou Mengyan took her in, and a staff member came to greet her.
