Transmigrating to the 80s to Become Stepmom to Five Bigwigs

Chapter 318: Watching a Scary Movie

After the three children internalized it, they used it flexibly. Xiao Wu learned it the most seriously and swore to protect himself.

Ji Buwang came over from time to time, but before he left that day, he suddenly took a letter out of his bag while no one was paying attention.

“For you.”

When Mu Jingzhe suddenly saw the letter, her first thought was that it was a love letter. This scene was simply too familiar.

At the thought that this could be a love letter, Mu Jingzhe didn’t take it immediately. “Why did you suddenly write a letter?”

Ji Buwang’s face was a little red. “Quick, take it.”

Seeing that Mu Jingzhe hadn’t moved, he stuffed it into her hand and left.

Mu Jingzhe coughed and kept it. After dinner, she opened it when no one was paying attention.

She was afraid that it was a love letter. It wouldn’t be good if the kids saw it. Reality proved that she was right. This letter was indeed only suitable for one to read in private.

However, it wasn’t because it was a love letter but because it was product feedback.

What kind of product was it about? The underwear he had taken back then. action

Mu Han’s feedback had also come back in the form of a letter. She hadn’t expected Ji Buwang to be so embarrassed to tell her in person and write a letter. She had even mistaken it for a love letter.

Although it was a little awkward, Ji Buwang had still seriously given her feedback and even provided some suggestions. This industry had great potential. After all, there were still many gaps in the market.

Besides, in terms of fabric, if they were producing underwear in large volumes, they could take care of it by themselves. Pure cotton was still a very good choice of fabric. Ji Buwang provided Mu Jingzhe with a few ideas.

Although it wasn’t a love letter, it was more useful than a love letter. Mu Jingzhe benefited greatly from it.

As Little Bei’s filming went smoothly, she received another piece of good news. The movie “A Ghost in the Night”, which Xiao Wu had helped produce scary music for, was being screened in cinemas.

Previously, it had been in post-production, but now, the promotion was almost finished. According to the director, it was time for the summer heat to cool down.

The director was very confident and came up with publicity slogans such as ‘a movie that will definitely make you cry and scream from fright’ and ‘have a cool summer’. He also asked Xiao Wu to help compose a piece of music that could be used as a selling point.

Although there was no internet, Mu Jingzhe realized that there was a lot of publicity before the movie’s premiere. The director personally publicized the movie in all sorts of ways.

He appeared in newspapers and radio stations, and one could tell that he had a lot of confidence in the movie.

In this world, there were people like Mu Jingzhe, who didn’t dare watch horror movies, and there were also people who liked horror movies when they were even more horrifying. The day before the movie premiered, she heard Bai Bai say that he wanted to watch it. “I hope it’s scary. Otherwise, I won’t be satisfied.”

Bai Bai was bold and loved horror movies. Mu Jingzhe silently gave him a thumbs-up.

After all, Xiao Wu had composed a tune for the movie, so he wanted to see the effect. However, Mu Jingzhe really didn’t dare to go. She asked around and found out that there were many scenes that had made a lot of actors cry from fright or break down. She would be putting Shao Qihai in a difficult position by asking him to take them. If he did, the entire theater would probably be filled with his cries.

It wasn’t easy for Shao Qihai to keep this a secret, and Mu Jingzhe didn’t want to make things difficult for him either. “What should we do? Xiao Wu, there’s no one to take you to watch it. How about you guys don’t go either? Children aren’t meant to watch horror movies.”

“But I want to see it. Xiao Wu wants to see it too. Why won’t you let Daddy take us there?” Little Bei was enthusiastic. “He said that he would take us last time.”

Mu Jingzhe listened to Little Bei and silently shut her mouth. “Then go back and tell your father.”

Let Shao Qihai say no himself.

Shao Qihai was in a difficult position. In the end, he thought of an excellent explanation. “Actually, I don’t dare watch horror movies either.”

Although it would appear too timid for a grown man to not dare watch a horror movie, it was better than bursting into tears in the cinema.

In the end, Ji Buwang offered to take Xiao Wu and Little Bei there. “I’m not afraid. I have time too. I can take them there.”

Old Master Ji was tempted, as he wanted to create memories by watching a movie with his grandson, but he was stopped by Ji Buwang.

“Old Master, wake up. This is a horror movie. What if something happens to you?”

Old Master Ji could only give up awkwardly. He was old and should indeed cherish his health.

Ji Buwang usually didn’t watch movies because he couldn’t see people’s faces and it was all just a blur. He found it meaningless.

However, it would be nice to bring Xiao Wu, Little Bei, and Shao Xi along. After dinner, he came to pick them up. “Don’t worry, I’ll watch over them. I’ll definitely be the calmest person in the room. I promise I’ll protect the kids. If they’re afraid, I’ll take them out.”

Mu Jingzhe understood. He couldn’t see anyone’s face, so this was quite good. He could see an automatic mosaic, yet he would still feel the atmosphere.

“If they’re afraid, you’ve got to take them out early. Don’t let them be frightened.”

Mu Jingzhe was really worried about letting the kids go. At their age, they shouldn’t be watching such a movie at all. She was afraid that all three of them would be frightened. In the past, they had never officially watched a horror movie.

“I understand, Mommy. I’ll cover my eyes if I get scared.” Xiao Wu nodded.

Ji Buwang took the three of them and set off. They were stopped at the door because they were too young and it wasn’t appropriate for them to watch the movie. In the end, they had to explain that Xiao Wu was a composer who wanted to watch the movie. They also promised to leave if they felt afraid.

In reality, Xiao Wu, Little Bei, and Shao Xi weren’t afraid at all. They were the calmest kids present. On the other hand, Ji Buwang was a little afraid.

Compared to other movies, horror movies indeed made Ji Buwang experience the thrill of watching a movie.

No human faces were visible, but the atmosphere was very good. It was so good that Ji Buwang screamed.

The director had filmed the entire movie well. Other than creating terror, he had also created a storyline. There wasn’t much blood, but the atmosphere of horror was very strong. Thanks to the support of Xiao Wu’s tune, the effects were even more astonishing.

At first, it was fine. Later on, screams rose and fell in the movie theater. Even Ji Buwang couldn’t help but scream twice.

Xiao Wu and Little Bei sat beside Ji Buwang and coaxed him. “Don’t be afraid, Teacher Ji. It’s all fake.”

“Yes, that’s right.” Xiao Wu nodded. “Don’t be afraid.”

Shao Xi nodded. “It’s a little scary. Fortunately, I’m bold.”

“Aren’t you afraid?” Ji Buwang asked them softly, feeling a little embarrassed.

“Don’t be afraid. Mommy said that it’s all fake.” Afraid that they would be frightened, Mu Jingzhe had given them a heads-up beforehand. Xiao Wu found it very useful.

“I think this expression is very nice.” Little Bei seemed to be there to study acting.

“I want my book to be adapted into a movie too.” While watching the movie, Shao Xi discovered his wildest ambition. “I don’t want to be a director, but I want the story I wrote to become a movie.”

“Then I’ll act in it when the time comes, Second Brother,” Little Bei said from the side. “I’ll definitely act well.”

“Sure.” Shao Xi agreed readily.

Xiao Wu whispered, “I want to participate too. I can help.”

“Alright, I’ll leave the soundtrack to you. This scary tune proves your ability. I have faith in you,” Shao Xi replied in all seriousness.

“Thank you for your trust, Second Brother.”

As everyone screamed, the three children discussed their future cooperation in low voices.

Ji Buwang: “…”

Very good. The children were all outstanding. To think they were still in the mood to talk about this under the circumstances.
