The ultimate master in the city

"What a coincidence!" Zhou Fengchen said, "What? You two got together?"

Wang Min smiled politely, "Let's see how it goes."

The man with the small mustache looked at Tang Sai'er, then at Wang Min, and for reasons unknown, blurted out, "If someone like you can succeed, why can't others?"

His words were sarcastic.

"You talk like you're a really nice person." Zhou Fengchen ignored him and looked at Tang Sai'er.

Tang Sai'er smiled slyly, glancing at her watch. "It's 3 minutes and 45 seconds now. If you greet someone before I can even speak, you're considered late."

"This works?" Zhou Fengchen said, "Then... what if we're late?"

Tang Sai'er pointed to the snack shop next door, "You're punished by having to buy me popcorn, fried chicken wings, potato chips..."

"No problem, just wait." Zhou Fengchen nodded and walked over.

Wang Min smiled, glanced at the little mustache, and said, "Like this beautiful lady, I want one too."

"Hold on."

The man with the mustache gentlemanly ran behind Zhou Fengchen to join the queue. Taking advantage of the distance between the two girls, he whispered, "It's unbelievable that such a stunning beauty would agree to a vulgar person like you."

"Are you out of your mind?" Zhou Fengchen said impatiently. "What's it to you?"

The man with the mustache sneered, "I don't like the look of him."

"Are you just envious and jealous?"

"Absolutely right!"

"What a fool!" Zhou Fengchen shook his head. Taking advantage of the crowd, he quietly opened his Heavenly Eye to look at Tang Sai'er, who was chatting with Wang Min not far away. Strangely, she looked perfectly normal, with nothing unusual about her.

What's too normal is abnormal. Although what Little Mustache said was harsh, it made sense. What exactly did Tang Sai'er, this top-notch rich girl, see in him?

Money? Her family seems to be even richer.

Handsome? You could slap a bunch of handsome young men in this city to death with one hand.

"Sexy? Uh... I didn't really show it much."

The man with the small mustache seemed to mutter something behind him, but Zhou Fengchen didn't listen carefully. When it was his turn, he bought a bunch of food as Tang Sai'er had told him to.

When he turned around, the two girls were talking. Wang Min seemed very interested, chatting about this and that, while Tang Sai'er was clearly not interested. She only greeted him with a smile when she saw him return, "Not bad! You're very well-behaved. Let's go upstairs."

Pretty well-behaved...

Zhou Fengchen was exasperated. He greeted Wang Min, picked up his things, and followed Tang Sai'er upstairs. Looking at her beautifully curved back, he thought to himself that there was no such thing as a free lunch and he would have to test the waters later.

As soon as the two arrived at the cinema lobby on the fifth floor, Wang Min and Xiao Huzi followed them up and came over when they saw them.

"What kind of movies are you watching?" Wang Min asked with a grin.

Zhou Fengchen shook his head and asked Tang Sai'er, "I'll listen to you."

Tang Sai'er tapped her chin with her finger, glancing around at the various movie categories. "Romance? No good. War movies? Too gory. Sci-fi? Too fake... Hmm, I don't know anymore."

She turned to Wang Min and asked, "Hey beautiful, what are you looking at?"

Wang Min shook his head. "I don't care. What I fear most is making choices."

Upon seeing this, the man with the mustache gave a strange smile. "How about... we watch a horror movie?"

Tang Sai'er and Wang Min exchanged a glance and said in unison, "Okay!"

Zhou Fengchen was displeased. "What's so interesting about horror movies? They're boring."

The ghost movies made in the film industry are too fake, they're all made up and don't reflect reality at all. Asking him to watch a ghost movie is like asking a seasoned veteran of love to watch a romance movie—it's too childish.

The man with the mustache gave a fake smile. "You're not scared, are you?"

"You think I'm scared?" Zhou Fengchen almost burst out laughing; this guy's words were too funny.

"Tch—" Tang Sai'er gave her a disdainful look.

Zhou Fengchen was annoyed. "Fine, I'll watch it then! Find the scariest one!"

The four of them chose a movie called "The Haunted House" and their seats were close together.

While waiting, Zhou Fengchen pondered for a while, then came up with a lot of questions and asked Tang Sai'er, who was eating snacks beside him, "I want to ask, you called me crazy today, but why did you agree to come out to the movies with me later?"

Tang Sai'er rolled her eyes at him. "Shouldn't you be happy?"

Zhou Fengchen said, "I'm more puzzled than happy."

Tang Sai'er smiled, leaned closer and said, "Because you're handsome, and... I like your quirky, roguish charm."

"You have such good taste." Zhou Fengchen scratched his head, lowered his head, and blushed.

Then I realized, damn it! What was I about to ask her? I've completely forgotten.

The movie started, and the four of them entered the screening room with their tickets. They all sat in the last row, close together.

Not long after, the movie started playing. It opened with an old scene from the Republican era, with the screen flickering. Then, a woman dressed in a wedding gown, pale-faced and with vacant eyes, floated around the house. Coupled with the eerie music, the audience screamed.

The little mustache blinked, looking at Tang Sai'er and then at Wang Min.

Tang Sai'er stared wide-eyed at the screen, her expression unreadable, whether from fear or interest. Wang Min was also watching the screen, but he kept frowning, seemingly lost in thought.

He looked at Zhou Fengchen again and suddenly felt very strange. Why was this guy, who should be very "timid", yawning and looking so bored?

He took a deep breath, quietly took Wang Min's hand, and said, "Don't be afraid!"

Unexpectedly, Wang Min glanced at him and immediately took her hand away, causing a very awkward situation.

Zhou Fengchen happened to see this scene and was amused. He thought to himself that it was quite fun and he had to try it too. He coughed and looked at Tang Sai'er, who was staring intently at the screen. He quietly reached out to hold her fair little hand, but unexpectedly, he grabbed nothing.

Tang Sai'er put her hand to the side, gave him a half-smile, and continued watching the movie.

Zhou Fengchen's embarrassment was beyond words, and coincidentally, this scene was also witnessed by Little Mustache.

The two exchanged a disapproving glance and simultaneously scoffed.

Next, we watched the movie. It was quite good; at least the atmosphere of horror was well-done. It tells the story of several young men and women who pass by an old house, stay overnight, encounter ghosts, and are all mysteriously killed.

The screams continued throughout the venue, but Zhou Fengchen was completely unmoved. Tang Sai'er seemed even calmer than Zhou Fengchen, though it was unclear what was going on. Wang Min, having indeed seen ghosts a few times, frowned and pondered what was different. Then... Little Mustache was in trouble. He was watching too intently and even got caught up in the scene. His face turned pale with fright, and he kept screaming "Ah ah!"

After the movie ended and he left the lobby, Little Mustache's legs were still a little weak. Feeling three disdainful looks, he put his hands in his pockets, looked at the ground and then at the ceiling, and felt very uncomfortable.

Tang Sai'er then said, "Zhou Fengchen, I'm hungry. Buy me a late-night snack."

Before Zhou Fengchen could answer, the man with the small mustache thought to himself that he finally had something to talk about, and quickly said, "Wang Min, let's go get some late-night snacks."

I like the novel "The Strongest Master in the City".
