Chapter 455: Thick-skinned2

Thinking that his face could no longer be saved and with the high school entrance exam fast approaching, Xu Renjie felt that if he didn’t make a move on Ling Xuejiu now, once she entered university, his chances would be slim!

Therefore, during lunch, Xu Renjie confided in his two lackeys, and then Zhou Qiang came up with an idea, suggesting that Xu Renjie should set aside his pride, appreciate the urgency of the situation, and take the initiative.

Niu Peng wasn’t about to be outdone and directly suggested Xu Renjie invite Ling Xuejiu to the movies that evening to watch a horror film, saying that it was common knowledge from TV shows that girls get scared while watching horror movies, then scream and throw themselves onto the guys, allowing Xu Renjie to take advantage of the situation.

When Niu Peng made this suggestion, Xu Renjie was overjoyed. He finally praised Niu Peng for once, then sent the kid off to buy two movie tickets as soon as they finished eating.

With that settled, Xu Renjie took out the two movie tickets and said, "Xiao Xue, are you free tonight? I’d like to invite you to watch a movie with me! I’ve already got the tickets."

Ling Xuejiu gave Xu Renjie a look as if he were an idiot, about to explode, when suddenly Li Mengjie, all smiles, said, "Xue Jiu, it’s been a long time since I watched a movie too. How about we go together tonight?"

"Yes, let’s go together!" Although Xu Renjie was reluctant to have a ’Light Bulb’ complicating his date with Ling Xuejiu, he was somewhat worried that Ling Xuejiu would decline. However, with Li Mengjie offering to help persuade her, he was overjoyed and couldn’t help but let his imagination run wild. In the pitch-black movie theater, sitting between Ling Xuejiu and Li Mengjie, a terrifying scene pops up, both girls screaming and throwing themselves into his arms, then he’d be embracing them from both sides, taking his chance to cop a feel...

Just thinking about it, Xu Renjie was already ecstatic, almost drooling, and thought, he had known Niu Peng for quite a few years now, but never realized the kid was actually a pickup genius. To come up with such an idea... Why hadn’t he noticed this talent before? If he had known, he wouldn’t have had to wait until now to employ this cunning plan, and perhaps Ling Xuejiu would already be his by now.

Ling Xuejiu slightly furrowed her brow, seeing Li Mengjie’s mischievous demeanor, she knew she was up to no good but held back from lashing out.

"Did I ever say I would go with you?" Li Mengjie gave Xu Renjie a blank look, clearly exasperated.

Xu Renjie felt annoyed inside, but dared not offend Li Mengjie on the surface, because offending her would be tantamount to indirectly offending Ling Xuejiu, right? So he said with a smile, "Xiao Jie, since we all want to watch a movie, why not go together? Besides, watching a horror movie at night without a strong and powerful man like me by your side for a sense of security, wouldn’t that be really frightening?" In saying so, he even flexed his scrawny arm muscles, nearly sending Li Mengjie into fits of laughter.

"Hmm~! Is that so!" Li Mengjie said cheerfully, "You’re right, but why do Xue Jiu and I have to watch a horror film? Can’t we watch a comedy?"

Xu Renjie was taken aback, that question wasn’t easy to answer at all. Could he really say, ’If we don’t watch a horror movie, how can I take advantage of you?’ This left him quite embarrassed.
