Chapter 108: Watching a Horror Movie with Yan Luoxi

Chapter 108: Chapter 108: Watching a Horror Movie with Yan Luoxi

"Hm?"

Hearing the noise, Yan Luoxi finally propped herself up, sitting on the bed like a person.

When she saw Gu Yizhou standing at the door with a creepy smile, her brilliant blue eyes instantly widened...

"Little lazy cat, you’re finally awake?"

He said with a smile.

"Meow~!"

Yan Luoxi meowed at him with disdain.

’Idiot!’

Naturally, Gu Yizhou had no idea he was being scorned by a cat.

He walked into the room and scooped up the little white cat.

"Time to get up, little lazy cat!"

Gu Yizhou said with a laugh.

Yan Luoxi: "..."

’Who are you calling lazy?!’

’I wonder who it was that slept through the afternoon and into the evening!’

She grumbled silently.

"Come on, Xiaobai. Let’s go out. I’ll cook you some of that chicken breast you love."

Gu Yizhou said.

With that, he held Yan Luoxi in his arms and walked out of the room.

...

「A few minutes later.」

Yan Luoxi perched on the sofa, watching Gu Yizhou busy in the kitchen, wearing an apron and cooking chicken breast for her. Her crankiness from being woken up finally subsided a little.

’Hmph!’

’I guess you know your place, you stupid man!’

She snorted internally.

Of this, Gu Yizhou was, of course, completely unaware.

Watching the chicken breast boiling in the pot, he picked up his own takeout, which was already cold. He opened it and saw that it hadn’t been touched.

So, he dumped the takeout onto a clean plate and put it in the microwave to reheat.

He wasn’t short on money, but that didn’t mean he could just waste food.

「Half an hour later.」

Yan Luoxi was lying on the sofa, comfortably and matter-of-factly enjoying being fed by Gu Yizhou.

’That’s right!’

’Before this, she had absolutely no intention of letting that jerk Gu Yizhou feed her, but ultimately, she couldn’t resist the temptation.’

’Of course.’

’It wasn’t the bland chicken breast that was so great, but the feeling of being waited on.’

Watching Xiaobai’s princely enjoyment, Gu Yizhou didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

’This silly little cat is practically sentient!’

He thought to himself.

Suddenly, the dream he’d had that afternoon flashed through his mind...

’Have I been single for so long that even a cat is starting to look pretty to me?’

’First there was Xu Xian with his snake, then Ning Caichen with his ghost, and now I’m... with a cat???’

Gu Yizhou couldn’t help but shudder.

’No!’

’Impossible!’

’I’m a man of integrity! How could I ever do something like that?!’

’Could it be like Mom said? Is it really time to find a girlfriend?’

’No, no, no!’

’Why would I need a girlfriend?!’

’Isn’t being single great?’

’A woman would only slow down my typing speed!’

Gu Yizhou shook his head, clearing out all the messy, random thoughts.

"Meow~!"

Just as he was lost in thought, Yan Luoxi meowed at him again, this time with dissatisfaction.

"Hm?"

Hearing the sound, Gu Yizhou glanced down and saw that Xiaobai had already finished the chicken breast he was holding. Now, she was staring at him and meowing unhappily.

The look in her eyes seemed to say: "Hey, poop-scooper! Hurry up and feed me!"

This left Gu Yizhou feeling utterly helpless.

’Damn it!’

’This little thing is seriously becoming sentient!’

’Huh?’

’Oh, right!’

’Speaking of poop-scooping, it seems Xiaobai hasn’t pooped in the litter box a single time since she got here!’

’He’d seen Xiaobai pee in the litter box, but he really had never seen her poop in it.’

’If Xiaobai didn’t seem perfectly fine otherwise, he would have thought the little thing was constipated.’

’But on second thought, it made sense. That little rascal Xiaobai snuck out every day, so she probably did her business outside. Naturally, there was nothing left to get rid of when she came back.’

’That was a good thing, though. It saved him a lot of trouble.’

’Besides, it’s not like he could stop the little one from sneaking out every day anyway.’

Gu Yizhou had actually considered blocking that hole in the door, but he was afraid that if he trapped Xiaobai inside, she might claw open a window and jump, which could really kill her.

’After all, as smart as Xiaobai was, she wasn’t a person.’

’What if!’

’What if she just didn’t understand and was desperate to get out no matter what?’

’After all, Xiaobai was used to roaming wild outside. If he really locked her up at home, something bad was bound to happen.’

’Right now, even though she sneaked out every day, at least she knew how to come back. That was actually pretty good.’

After feeding Xiaobai, Gu Yizhou also scarfed down his afternoon takeout in a few bites. To be honest, the reheated food didn’t taste very good.

But thankfully, Gu Yizhou wasn’t that hungry anyway. It was enough to just have a little something to fill his stomach.

After clearing the table and washing the dishes, it was already 11:30 PM.

Normally, he would be getting ready for bed around this time.

But he had slept too much today and wasn’t the least bit sleepy now.

’Oh well!’

Bored and with nothing to do, he was suddenly struck by an idea. He turned to Xiaobai and said, "Xiaobai, how about we watch a horror movie together?"

Yan Luoxi: "??????"

’Nooo!’

’Horror movies... that’s the one thing she was most afraid of...’

However, Gu Yizhou wasn’t asking for her opinion; he was just casually informing her. After speaking, he turned on the TV and started searching. After looking for a while, he finally chose a horror movie called *The Ring*.

The reason Gu Yizhou picked this movie was that its name was very similar to a classic horror film from his past life on Earth. He just didn’t know if the content would be the same.

The opening credits still had that familiar, streamlined sequence, which surprised Gu Yizhou a little.

This couldn’t help but pique his interest in the rest of the movie.

So, Gu Yizhou held Xiaobai, stroking her fur, and blissfully waited for the movie to begin.

He completely ignored Xiaobai’s reluctance and her desire to escape, pinning her between his legs.

...

By the time the movie was over, Yan Luoxi was already trembling with fear. Gu Yizhou, on the other hand, was unfazed and even a little disappointed.

Because this horror movie called *The Ring* was not at all the same as the one from his past life on Earth. In fact, you could say they were two completely different things.

In his opinion, it wasn’t scary at all.

’What a garbage movie!’

’Not only was he not scared, he felt absolutely nothing. He even kind of wanted to laugh!’

’Damn it!’

’Are they making a horror movie or a comedy?’

’The entertainment in this world is such trash, isn’t it?’

Gu Yizhou complained silently.

After he was done complaining, Gu Yizhou turned the living room lights back on, then picked up his phone to check the time. He saw it was already almost two in the morning.

Although he wasn’t very tired, it was still time to go to bed.

After all, he had to get up early for work tomorrow.

So he got up to wash up and get ready for sleep...
