Jilted by Day, Cuddled At Night
Chapter 261: It’s Troublesome When the Manic-Depressive Period Suddenly Erupts
Gu Jue’s movements paused abruptly, "Mm, haven’t seen it, looked it up last night."
He wasn’t particularly fond of watching movies.
After all, the most important thing in Commander Gu’s world before was to exterminate the Insect Clan, to wipe out the Star Thieves.
To maintain the peace of the Federal Empire.
But now, Gu Jue was extremely interested in watching a movie with Su Wan!
Or rather, now he was enthusiastic about doing anything with his sweet little wife!
Gu Jue was always cautious in his actions.
Even if it was just watching a movie, he would investigate in advance.
What Su Wan didn’t know was that yesterday, Gu Jue had also specifically contacted the experienced subordinate, Eric.
Asking him about 7D movies.
When Eric was still half asleep, his first reaction was that it’s best to go watch a romance movie with a partner!
Hehehehe.
Otherwise, prompting the sudden outbreak of the Beastman’s Manic-Depressive Period wouldn’t be easy to handle.
Or, you’d need to bring enough exclusive medicine.
He was the most experienced at this!
But hearing Commander Gu’s chill voice, Eric instantly became alert!
In the end, he honestly explained the things one should pay attention to in a 7D movie.
Upon hearing from the commander that it was an adventure movie,
Eric said nonchalantly, "Boss, rest assured, not to mention in the movie, even in reality, there’s nothing that can hurt you — it just doesn’t exist!"
Besides, no matter how lifelike those movie effects are, they are actually fake.
Audiences can immerse themselves if they’re happy, or leave whenever they want, just like with a scumbag.
Of course, Commander Gu wouldn’t share this scumbag theory with his sweet little wife.
He just calmly repeated all the precautions to her.
After listening, Su Wan indeed felt more at ease.
"Please ensure whether your seatbelts are fastened."
"Please check if your brain-computer interface has been fully connected."
"Please close your eyes, the movie is about to begin."
Su Wan felt the light in the private room slowly dim, till she couldn’t even see Gu Jue sitting beside her in the pitch dark.
This thick darkness could provoke a strong unease at the bottom of one’s heart.
The mechanical voice of Vermilion Bird rang in Su Wan’s ears: "Master don’t be afraid, I have checked everything, all equipment is functioning normally."
Su Wan felt the warmth from the man beside her fingertips.
She said, "I’m not scared."
Vermilion Bird, being very intelligent, did not continue to ask why she wasn’t scared.
Becuase if it did, it might just get fed a mouthful of dog food.
Even though it didn’t have a mouth.
In the darkness came the distant chatter of Luo Jina and others.
In it, was also mixed Su Xiaoge bragging about having encountered a black hole up close before, claiming it was exactly the same darkness as now...
The next moment, the whole room began to fly upwards, not very fast.
For those who had been on a space ship before, this degree of weightlessness was nothing.
Just a bit faster than an elevator.
Suddenly, a frantic piece of music started, and Su Wan began to hear extensive narration in her ears.
This was introducing the story background, allowing the audience to quickly immerse themselves in it.
"A group of high school students on their graduation trip, sat on the bus singing. They didn’t know that what they were about to face would completely overturn their understanding of the world and their grasp of human nature..."
Su Wan: "..."
Wasn’t the movie named Treasure Hunt?
This opening, why does it feel like thick horror movie déjà vu!
As the narration slowly faded away, it was replaced by the background sounds of the story.
For instance, the chirping of crickets in the grass, the noise of young boys and girls horsing around, and a car horn that a driver kept honking.
The lighting also gradually brightened.
Only...
Su Wan looked at her empty hands in surprise...
Where had Ajue gone?
Where had everyone else gone?!!!!!!

Deep Blue Cinema office building.
Manager Li Hao, wearing a grey suit, returned to his office and sat down on the soft Star Beast leather sofa.
"Bring me a glass of wine," he ordered the robot.
Suddenly, the door to Li Hao’s office was pushed open.
Li Hao looked up, saw who it was, and immediately stood up with joy, "Isn’t this the great actor Bai Yu? When did you get here? Why didn’t you let me know so I could come to meet you!"
Dressed in a pressed gold white suit, Bai Yu sat down across the sofa from Li Hao, crossing his legs casually.
His features were extremely delicate, androgynous, and captivating as he sat there with a hint of a smile on his lips.
Bai Yu picked up the red wine from the coffee table and swirled it.
He smiled and said, "Isn’t there a fan meeting at noon? I happened to be free, so I came over early."
Li Hao: "You should’ve told me, so I could’ve come to pick you up."
Bai Yu: "Where had you gone just now?"
A glint of sharpness flashed in Li Hao’s eyes, and he said with a smile, "There was an issue in one of the theaters, a valued guest had complained, so I went to check it out. I’ve already resolved the issue."
"Who would dare to complain about Deep Blue," Bai Yu chuckled lazily, his light-brain device started to chime.
He glanced at it, "I’ll head to the dressing room first. You’ll be at the fan meeting later as well, Manager Li?"
"Of course."
After seeing off Bai Yu, the smile on Li Hao’s face gradually faded.
He locked the door of his office, turned around, and walked into a partitioned area within the office.
This was akin to a secret room, with communication blocked to prevent eavesdropping.
Li Hao immediately took out his light-brain and dialed out.
Soon, an aged voice slowly responded.
"Li Hao, is there an issue at the cinema?"
"No, no, boss, everything at the cinema is normal. Moreover, at noon at twelve, we are hosting a fan meeting for the movie star Bai Yu."
"Then why did you make the call?"
Li Hao hesitated for a moment, then looked around and said in a low voice, "Boss, Gu Jue has come to our cinema!"
"What!"
The person on the other end sent over a projection immediately.
In the virtual screen, an image of an elderly man dressed in deep blue traditional clothes with grey-white hair appeared.
The old man seemed almost two hundred years old, his aura commanding, his face wrinkled, and his eyes cold.
However, at this moment, his eyes were filled with puzzlement.
"Are you saying, Gu Jue came to the cinema to watch a film? Really?"
"Boss, it’s true. The one accompanying Commander Gu should be his wife. The rest of the people looked quite young, and among them, I also saw the Luo Family’s young miss who just got married recently. It is said that the young miss has a very good relationship with Commander’s wife."
Not to mention, Commander Gu’s wife has been a prominent figure on the main planet this past year!
And Commander Gu’s appearance, ever since he revealed his true face, surely there’s no one in the universe who doesn’t recognize him now.
A flash of concealed excitement shimmered in the old man’s eyes, mixed with a sudden gleam of coldness.
However...
