The Older Brother of My Student is My Secret Crush

Chapter 78

When the four of them were about to arrive at the roller coaster, Lin Shu'an asked Yu Na, "Na Na, do you dare to ride the roller coaster?"

Yu Na didn't think twice and directly replied, "Of course I dare! No big deal."

So, the two ladies turned around together and were met with the faces of their two boyfriends instantly turning pale.

Yu Na hesitated for a few seconds, then said, "Or maybe let Xiao Chen wait down here, he's even scared of horror movies, he definitely can't handle this ride."

Han Chengxun quickly added, "I'll keep him company down here, with his low IQ, it'd be troublesome if he got lost."

After the two of them happily ran off to ride the rollercoaster, the two handsome men, in perfect unison, discreetly removed the hair accessories meant for young girls that they were wearing on their heads.

Xiao Chen squinted his eyes and saw through Han Chengxun, "If you're scared just say so, don't use me as an excuse. You owe me one now."

Han Chengxun smiled calmly and naturally changed the topic, "Don't tell me you're actually scared of horror movies."

Xiao Chen awkwardly pretended to be brave, "Who's scared...I was just pretending, this is the fun of being in a passionate new relationship, a married man like you wouldn't understand."

Han Chengxun didn't try to irritate him further. Letting out a sigh of relief he said, "That's good then. Did you know a new horror film was just released called ‘The Red Dress in the Black Mountains’? An An has been wanting to watch it, let's go, the four of us, this afternoon."

This was the movie Xiao Chen and Yu Na had started watching last time at the theater but Xiao Chen got too scared so they left halfway through.

Xiao Chen: ?

......

Sure enough, after playing all morning and having lunch, Han Chengxun suggested, "Let's go watch a movie this afternoon?"

After trying out all sorts of thrilling rides, Yu Na was feeling pumped and didn't want to go home yet, "Sure, what should we watch?"

Lin Shu'an said, "We'll see when we get there this afternoon."

Han Chengxun meaningfully glanced at Xiao Chen before purposefully asking Lin Shu'an, "Didn't you want to watch ‘The Red Dress in the Black Mountains’?"

"Uh..." Lin Shu'an hesitated slightly, "But isn't Xiao Chen scared of..."

"Who's scared?" Xiao Chen abruptly interrupted her, "Let's watch that one!"

Yu Na whispered, "Are you sure? Don't force yourself."

"I'm sure, let's watch that one."

They had only gotten halfway through watching this movie last time before Xiao Chen got too frightened and went straight home.

She had actually quite wanted to see how it ended.

When buying tickets that afternoon, while choosing seats, Yu Na was about to pick the last row on the far right side.

Lin Shu'an asked, "Are you sure you want to sit in the last row?"

Yu Na replied, "Yup."

Han Chengxun glanced meaningfully at Xiao Chen again, whose face was filled with satisfaction and doting that looked about to spill from his eyes.

Feeling goosebumps rising, Han Chengxun fearlessly called them out, "Tsk tsk, don't tell me it's because you're worried a certain someone will get scared and embarrass himself?"

Xiao Chen waved a fist at him, "Keep talking and you're dead."

Yu Na and Lin Shu'an were standing in front of them and upon hearing Han Chengxun's words, turned around, "No, that's not it—"

She knew Han Chengxun was just teasing them, after all his level of cheekiness was on par with Xiao Chen's.

But Yu Na still perfectly protected Xiao Chen's self-esteem.

She smiled, eyes curving into crescents, and directly replied, "It's because I might want to kiss him during the movie."

A perfect demonstration of "sincerity will always be the ultimate killer move."

Han Chengxun: ?

When choosing seats, Lin Shu'an's fingers paused for a moment.

She thought to herself, was it because she and Han Chengxun had been married too long? She didn't realize new couples in the throes of passion could be so straightforward these days.

Yu Na earnestly added, "It'd be inconvenient to kiss in the front rows."

There was a subtle gleam in Xiao Chen's eyes, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously curved up into a faint smile.

He really was no match for her.

It was worth the heartache, definitely worth it.

Han Chengxun had originally been teasing Xiao Chen on purpose, but upon hearing Yu Na's words, he suddenly felt they made sense.

Rather shamefully, he pointed to the last row on the left side and quietly asked Lin Shu'an, "Or should we sit in the last row too?"

Lin Shu'an: "......"

......

This horror film wasn't very popular, so there were many empty seats in the theater.

Especially the back rows, which were almost completely vacant.

The four of them sat separately, with Lin Shu'an dragging Han Chengxun to sit nearer the front since she genuinely wanted to watch this movie and rejected Han Chengxun's odd suggestion.

Yu Na and Xiao Chen sat in the furthest right corner of the back row.

The sinister filter reappeared on screen again and the haunting soundtrack built up the atmosphere.

Xiao Chen nervously swallowed.

It wasn't that he was very scared, he was most afraid of the sounds.

Yu Na handed him the popcorn, "Eat this if you get scared."

Xiao Chen cleared his throat, "I'm not scared."

"Oh...okay."

He folded up the armrest between them and sidled up next to her, lazily reminding her, "Don't forget what you just said earlier."

"What did I say?" Yu Na asked absentmindedly, waiting for the movie to start.

Xiao Chen picked up a piece of popcorn and brought it to Yu Na's mouth to jog her memory with this action.

Yu Na quickly caught on. f𝐫𝗲eweb𝗻o𝐯el.𝚌o𝗺

"You!" She angrily pinched his cheek, "Do you have a conscience? I was just helping you out earlier!"

"Hmm?" Xiao Chen's eyes grew provocative as he pulled her into his embrace, "But I took you seriously."

"......"

Yu Na clearly remembered the first half of the plot, and even remembered exactly when the scary sound effects would play.

Xiao Chen's hand was icy cold. Yu Na held his hand to warm it up for him.

Right before that sound effect that had frightened Xiao Chen last time, Yu Na suddenly poked his arm, "Xiao Chen."

"Hmm?"

Xiao Chen turned his head. Yu Na covered his ears, "Don't be scared, okay?"

As soon as she finished speaking, she proactively stretched up to kiss him.

Just a light peck, since they were in public after all, with cameras everywhere.

Xiao Chen's ears had just been tightly covered by her, so when that shrill sound effect rang out, it didn't startle him this time.

Instead, what he felt was the softness of her lips against his. Just a gentle touch, but it plucked at his heartstrings.

The moment she covered his ears, it was as if Xiao Chen could hear the rapid beating of his own heart.

......

By the time they returned home, it was almost midnight. Scenes from the movie still flashed continuously in Xiao Chen's mind.

As soon as he opened the door, Xiao Chen impatiently pressed Yu Na against the wall. Not waiting for her to speak, he lowered his head to kiss her.

Yu Na let out a soft "oh!" before tiptoeing to embrace him.

Xiao Chen put his arm around her waist to pull her closer.

Without even turning on the lights, their heated breaths, heavy breathing, ambiguous kissing sounds all intermingled in the pitch black surroundings, continuously entering their ears.

Xiao Chen cradled her face in both hands, pressing his forehead to hers. He softly called her name, "Yu Na..."

"Hmm?" Her eyes seemed especially bright in the dim environment. Like two gems, brimming with love for him.

"I think I—" He kissed her again. As their ten fingers interlaced, he squeezed out a sentence amidst the tender kiss, "I'm starting to like horror movies now."

Yu Na was kissed until her legs went soft, barely able to stand as she weakly leaned against him, breathing heavily.

As the clock struck midnight, Xiao Chen turned on the lights. His voice was gentle and lingering, "Happy New Year."

Yu Na hugged him tightly, nuzzling against his neck twice, "This was the happiest year of my life."

......

She didn't let him sleep in the guest room.

After showering, she snuggled into his embrace.

The two shared another passionate kiss. Xiao Chen was incredibly tempted but still strongly held back. Finally, he abruptly released her and soothingly coaxed her, "Go to sleep, good night."

The person in his arms was clearly perfectly contented by his coaxing. She quickly grew drowsy in his arms.

Before falling asleep, Xiao Chen hugged her once more and kissed her cheek. They fell asleep in each other's arms.

Since they had been quite tired from playing the previous day, they slept in very late the next morning.

Xiao Chen was woken up by the sound of the doorbell ringing.

Seeing who it was, he was instantly jolted awake. "Dad...Mom?!"

Xiao's Mother enthusiastically embraced him, unable to hide her excitement, "Son! Surprised?"
