Tomorrow Cheng: "..."
He answered the phone.
"Jingjing, don't choose my movie for your date today. It's a suspense movie with some bloody scenes, not a romance movie."
Xiang Nuan only found out today that the film studio was marketing it as a romantic love movie, with the main focus being on tricking a couple into killing each other, and taking this opportunity to build momentum.
She usually doesn't pay much attention to the marketing of the film company. Today, she suddenly remembered that Zhao Jing was going out to celebrate Valentine's Day, so she quickly called her to remind her.
Tomorrow Cheng glanced at Zhao Jing's pale face and said in a calm voice, "She has already finished reading."
“……”
So she didn't answer her calls, right?
"Oh, so be it." Xiang Nuan hung up the phone silently.
Tomorrow Cheng handed the phone to Zhao Jing.
Zhao Jing asked him: "What did she say?"
"Xiang Nuan asked you not to watch this movie, saying it would scare you."
When Zhao Jing heard this, she was unconvinced again. She rubbed her neck and said, "I'm not too scared. It just feels like that when I calm down."
Tomorrow Cheng was too lazy to expose her: "Then go home."
Zhao Jing flung his hand away in a bluffing manner, and walked in front with great pride.
Tomorrow Cheng chuckled and followed her pace.
That night, Zhao Jing took a bath early and got ready to go to bed. She put the kitten on the bed and named it Xiaobai.
Now Xiaobai is very attached to her and sleeps next to her pillow.
Zhao Jing rubbed the kitten's head, then turned over on the bed, getting ready to sleep.
But as soon as she closed her eyes, her mind was suddenly filled with bloody scenes from the movie, including the dismembered corpses, He Sijing's suddenly cold eyes filled with tears, and the splash of blood when she stabbed her father to death.
Zhao Jing was so frightened that she immediately opened her eyes. The lights in her room were not turned off, so why did she still feel eerie?
She took the kitten into her arms, but it was too small and meowed helplessly, as if it was less secure than she was.
She glanced at the door, why hasn't Cheng come yet tomorrow?
In the past few days, Tomorrow Cheng has been staying in her room. She didn't lock the door today. Why hasn't he come yet?
Zhao Jing couldn't stay alone in this empty room, so she opened the door and walked out with the kitten in her arms.
She was walking along the corridor and was about to go downstairs when she saw the study door over there was ajar and there was light inside.
Holding the kitten in one hand, she opened the door and saw Tomorrow Cheng working in the study. When he saw her coming, he asked, "Why aren't you asleep yet?"
Zhao Jing had already finished taking a shower and was wearing her nightgown. She felt a little guilty, and she seemed to say unintentionally: "I was going to sleep, aren't you going to sleep yet?"
"I have to finish this little thing first, what's the matter?"
Zhao Jing pouted: "I'm afraid you'll wake me up if you sleep too late."
Tomorrow Cheng nodded: "Then I won't sleep in your room tonight. I'll go back to my own room to sleep. Anyway, Xiaobai is close to you now. It should be fine if you stay alone with him. I don't need to disturb you."
Zhao Jing was stunned for a moment, as if she didn't expect that Cheng would not go back to her room to sleep tomorrow.
What should she do?
"What's wrong?" Tomorrow Cheng asked.
Zhao Jing hesitated for a moment, then said angrily: "That's the best, I don't like you quarreling with me at all!"
Then he raised his chin, hugged Xiaobai, and turned away angrily.
Tomorrow Cheng looked at her back as she left in high spirits, with the corners of her lips slightly raised. He hoped she could hold on for a few minutes.
Zhao Jing returned to the room, and when she saw the empty room, she felt a chill down her back. She was already timid, but the scene in today's movie scared her out of her wits.
She hugged Xiaobai and fell on the bed, pinching Xiaobai's face: "You will protect me, right? We are not afraid, yes, I am not afraid."
Xiaobai meowed weakly, pitifully, and couldn't give her any moral support at all.
Zhao Jing closed her eyes, unable to get rid of the image of corpses in her mind. She opened her eyes suddenly and sat up from the bed.
She struggled on the bed and tossed and turned for another ten minutes. Finally she couldn't bear it anymore. She opened the door to the room with Xiaobai in her arms again and walked out, heading towards Tomorrow Cheng's study.
His study door is still open and he is still working inside.
Zhao Jing held the cat in her arms and pushed open the door, standing at the door with an imposing manner: "You should go back to my room to sleep tonight."
Tomorrow Cheng raised his eyebrows slightly: "Huh?"
Ten minutes faster than he expected, he still overestimated her.
Zhao Jing raised her chin: "Xiaobai doesn't get used to it when you're not there. It's so noisy that I can't sleep well."
Xiaobai in his arms drooped his head and meowed weakly.
She was arrogant, but actually lacked it. Tomorrow Cheng stared at her for a while and saw the guilt that could not be hidden in her eyes.
Tomorrow Cheng put down the documents in his hands, stood up and walked out: "Then I will accompany him."
Zhao Jing was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect him to be so easy to talk to. She snorted softly, stuffed the cat in his arms, then turned and left.
Tomorrow Cheng followed her into her room with the cat in his arms.
Tomorrow Cheng had already taken a shower, and when he came in, he got on the bed with ease. She was used to sleeping on the right side, and he always slept on the left.
Zhao Jing also climbed onto the bed and got under the quilt. She felt much more relaxed. She didn't know why, but she wouldn't be afraid of Cheng tomorrow. Maybe he was older and felt much more secure than Xiao Bai.
But she was still a little flustered even though she fell asleep like this. She turned over in confusion, and felt that if she leaned closer, wouldn't it be a bit too obvious?
While she was struggling, a hand suddenly reached out and pulled her whole body into his arms.
She bumped into his broad chest, and his warm body and familiar breath made her feel full of security, her heart instantly filled up, and the scary images in her mind instantly dissipated.
But she still wanted to save face and muttered: "Why are you hugging me?"
He patted her back gently and whispered: "The daytime movie is a bit scary. I feel a little scared and want to hold her to sleep."
Zhao Jing felt relieved: "Coward."
Then he wrapped his arms around his waist with satisfaction, closed his eyes with peace of mind, and finally could sleep peacefully.
But after sleeping for a while, she vaguely felt that the person she was holding seemed to have turned into a fireball, getting warmer and warmer. She opened her eyes sleepily and ran into his glowing green eyes.
She woke up even after dozing off, her breathing slightly stagnant: "Why aren't you asleep yet?"
Tomorrow Cheng's hand around her waist tightened again, as if he wanted to squeeze her into his body, his eyes were dark and bottomless.
Her heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and his current appearance was even scarier than He Sijing's.
She subconsciously wanted to struggle out of his arms, but his arms were locked tightly in his arms and she wouldn't give in.
His voice was slightly hoarse: "I'm still too scared to sleep, so why not do something else to divert my attention."
