Chapter 196 Small Actions at the Cinema
Tickets were checked, we entered the screening room, and took our seats.
Xia Sheng and the others sat in a row, waiting for the movie to start.
The movie I chose was a horror film.
Natsuo's suggestion received support from everyone except Yukino Yukinoshita.
But the minority had to submit to the majority, so she had no choice but to compromise.
When a group of people go to the cinema, horror movies are usually their first choice, unless they have ulterior motives.
After all, watching horror movies is not only interesting because of the atmosphere, but also because you can see people making fun of others, and most importantly, you can do something about it.
There were men and women involved, and Xia Sheng wasn't the only one with these thoughts.
There were just too many people, so not everyone was satisfied with the seating arrangement.
Xia Sheng bought tickets for adjacent seats, but it's hard to decide who sits where.
In the end, Xia Sheng was placed in the middle, while the others were left to their own devices, choosing whichever seat they got.
Yukino Yukinoshita did not participate in the selection, so the remaining votes were hers. However, because she did not compete or fight, she was lucky and got the good seat that others wanted.
It is to the left of Xia Sheng.
To Natsumi's right is Sakurajima Mai.
There are six people, but actually there are two in the middle: Natsuo and Mai Sakurajima are in the very center.
Shiina Mahiru is to the left of Yukino Yukinoshita, on the outermost side.
Yui Yuigahama and Yuki Suo are positioned to Mai Sakurajima's right, respectively.
Shiina Mahiru didn't seem to care, a faint smile playing behind her sunglasses.
But Yuki Suo was very unhappy. She was the furthest away from Natsuo. "Am I having bad luck?"
"It's okay, it's okay, there will be other opportunities in the future," Yui Yuigahama comforted her.
"Sigh, I'm so far away from my cousin, I'm not in the mood to watch a movie."
"Don't say that!"
"Yuki, you have to follow the rules~ Look, I don't care." Shiina Mahiru chimed in from the other side.
"Okay, I'll listen to Mahiru-senpai."
"Yuki, I can switch places with you," Yukino Yukinoshita said softly.
"No need, no need, this is fine."
"Alright..." Yukino Yukinoshita's tone sounded a little off.
Shiina Mahiru noticed: "Yukino, so generous?"
"I just don't care where I sit," Yukino Yukinoshita replied calmly.
"Really? It's not because you're afraid I'll find out about the horror movie thing?" Shiina Mahiru stared intently at her.
"Just kidding, how could I be afraid of that? It's all fake." Yukino Yukinoshita denied with a serious expression.
"Is that so? Then I'll have to be careful later."
"The movie is about to start," Xia Sheng interjected to remind him.
Everyone immediately sat down and looked at the big screen.
In the screening room, the lights were off, leaving only the light from the large screen.
Yukino and the others took off their glasses.
There weren't many people watching this movie, probably because it was afternoon and everyone was thinking of finishing their lunch before watching the next one.
It's also possible that horror movies are simply unpopular.
These days, horror movies are becoming less and less scary; as times have changed, people have come to understand a lot more.
Once people realize that the horror movies are all fake, most people lose interest in watching them.
Moreover, because there are so many bad horror movies being released, it has dampened many people's expectations.
There was no one else sitting in the row that Natsumi chose, otherwise he would have sat on the side to prevent anyone from getting close and taking advantage of Shiina Mahiru and the others.
The movie started soon.
It begins with eerie background music and a dark, unsettling setting, creating anticipation—a classic opening.
The girl was murdered and became a vengeful spirit, seeking revenge and indiscriminately killing innocent people.
Xia Sheng suddenly lost interest in watching; he'd rather choose a romance movie.
Ok?
Suddenly, Xia Sheng felt his left wrist being grabbed tightly.
To his left was Yukino Yukinoshita, and it was no surprise who was grabbing his wrist.
Natsuo looked at Yukino Yukinoshita, who was staring calmly at the screen, seemingly unconcerned.
He looked down at the armrest, where his hand was being held by another hand, and the owner of that hand was none other than Yukino Yukinoshita.
Xia Sheng laughed silently.
Yukino Yukinoshita is such a hypocrite!
Despite being afraid of horror movies, she managed to remain remarkably calm.
They're quite cute.
Xia Sheng then realized that watching a horror movie was the right thing to do, but naturally, it wasn't because the movie was good.
He flipped his left hand over, palm up, and grasped Yukino Yukinoshita's hand, interlocking their fingers.
Her hands were slender and delicate, cool to the touch, and holding them gave one the feeling of not wanting to let go. When Natsuo held her hand, Yukino Yukinoshita visibly stiffened, her hand remaining motionless and not pulling back.
Xia Sheng didn't provoke her immediately, and just held her hand like that.
After a while, Yukino Yukinoshita finally relaxed, and Natsuo could feel that he was in a playful mood and started tickling her palm.
Yukino Yukinoshita wasn't ticklish and let Natsuo play with her hands, while she stared blankly at the big screen.
Because Shiina Mahiru was occasionally watching her, she couldn't afford to give herself away.
This only fueled Xia Sheng's arrogance.
He was no longer satisfied with simply holding hands with Yukino Yukinoshita. In the darkness, where he could see nothing, he held her hand and moved his arm toward her.
It was placed on her lap.
Even through the pants, you can still clearly feel the fleshiness of the thighs; not much, but soft enough.
Yukino Yukinoshita has very long legs, but when she sits down, the flesh on her thighs tends to bunch up. However, the softness only lasts for a moment. Yukino Yukinoshita noticed Natsuo's wicked thoughts, her heart tightened, and her legs immediately tensed up.
It also gripped Xia Sheng's hand tightly, warning him not to move.
But Xia Sheng was unwilling to give up such a good opportunity. He directly let go of her hand, flipped his hand over, and pressed his palm onto her thigh.
What a pity! If he had known this would happen, he would have let her wear a skirt with over-the-knee socks.
This way he could have direct contact with her thigh skin.
Although Yukino Yukinoshita's figure isn't great, her legs are still very alluring.
Xia Sheng has always been interested in this.
This was a rare opportunity; it was the first time he had ever touched her legs.
I've already unlocked the heartbeat sensing feature, but I've only just unlocked touching legs. The order seems wrong.
But it's not too late.
After all, the first step is very important; once you take it, there will definitely be a second step.
With everyone right there, Yukino Yukinoshita could only endure it and dared not utter a sound, while Natsuo could now act with impunity.
Without hesitation, he tightened his grip on her thigh, pinching it.
Natsuo's sudden movement made Yukino Yukinoshita sit up straight and freeze.
"Yukino, what's wrong? Did you get scared?" Shiina Mahiru, unaware of Natsuo's actions, looked at her teasingly and asked in a low voice.
"What's so scary about this part? My legs just went numb," Yukino Yukinoshita replied calmly.
"Oh, I see. You're really not afraid of horror movies?"
"I wasn't afraid to begin with."
"That's a pity, I was hoping to see you nervous and scared."
"A perverse sense of humor."
Yukino Yukinoshita and Shiina Mahiru withdrew their gazes, then immediately turned to glare at Natsuo, their eyes filled with shyness.
Xia Sheng remained unmoved and continued to pinch her thigh.
It feels pretty good in the hand; it would be even better if it were at zero distance.
There will be an opportunity sooner or later.
Yukino Yukinoshita was surprised that Natsuo completely ignored her and continued to pinch her, which made her both anxious and embarrassed.
In a place like this, she really didn't dare to reveal herself, and even if she did, she believed that Shiina Mahiru would only tease her.
Her thinking is no longer normal.
Then I'll just have to bear with it. Luckily I'm wearing pants, so it's not a big problem.
The key point is that she's no longer afraid of the atmosphere in the movie.
I don't know if this is a good thing or not.
Natsumi thought Yukino Yukinoshita would stop him, but she ignored him and let him pinch her.
This made him a little bored.
It was Yukino's shy demeanor that made him lose his mind.
Want something more exciting?
As Xia Sheng was thinking this, he prepared to move upwards, but at that moment, his other hand was grabbed.
Sitting to his right was Mai Sakurajima.
He was a little unsure, so he turned his head to the right and saw that it really was Mai Sakurajima who had taken his arm.
Mai Sakurajima looked at him, blinked, and said silently, "The movie is a bit scary, I'm a little scared."
"?" Xia Sheng looked at her strangely.
The way you look doesn't seem like you're scared.
