Chapter 203: Dark Ages
"Hey, Zhang Wei, you're watching a DVD!"
As Hu Yifei spoke, she picked up a disc from the table, a look of disdain on her face. "Ew~ It's such an old movie!"
Tang Youyou took the disc and glanced at it, somewhat tempted; "Why don't we watch it together? We can't get online anyway."
Zeng Xiaoxian immediately crossed his arms; "I'm not watching it, I've already seen it, this movie is so long and boring!"
“I don’t watch it either. These days, movie reviews are more interesting than the movies themselves!” Hu Yifei chimed in.
Chen Xiaobai couldn't help but sigh. Who would have thought that future generations would have the same troubles as now? There was practically nothing to watch, and if there was, it was just watching the comments section. The plots were all ridiculous, especially that one film that was masquerading as a science fiction movie...
Two hours have passed...
"Ah, it's finally over!"
Zeng Xiaoxian stretched and sighed.
Chen Xiaobai also yawned. Although the movie was long and tedious, it was quite interesting to watch and complain about it together.
However, at this moment, Zhang Wei picked up the remote control and pressed the replay button.
Hu Yifei quickly snatched the remote control; "What are you doing?"
"I don't want to go anywhere until my reputation is restored. I've decided to watch it one more time!"
Zhang Wei glanced at him, his face darkening as he took the remote back.
"Even if you're going to watch something else, let's choose a different one, okay? Viagra!"
Hu Yifei felt somewhat helpless.
Zhang Wei pulled out three DVDs from somewhere. "I have three more here: 'Saudi Agent,' 'Killing Traitors,' and 'Killing Lackeys.' You can choose whichever one you like!"
“Actually, spy movies are great; they’re very effective for escaping reality.” Zeng Xiaoxian patted him on the shoulder, seeing through Zhang Wei’s thoughts.
"I just don't understand, what's the big deal about a group of progressive young people assassinating a traitor?"
Seeing this, Hu Yifei couldn't help but complain, "Isn't it tiring to film a movie for two hours? Killing a traitor can be done in half an hour!"
"Easy for you to say, you try!" Zeng Xiaoxian immediately retorted. Who told them to be enemies now, they were bound to be on opposite sides.
Hu Yifei said earnestly, "Don't disbelieve me, my great-grandmother was a progressive young woman, and the stories she told us were not like that at all!"
Chen Xiaobai couldn't help but complain in his heart, "If it weren't for the fact that I was physically taking the hits from the bomb, I would believe it. Do you think this is some kind of anti-Japanese war drama?"
Tang Youyou, however, became interested and immediately asked, "Sister Yifei, why don't you tell us about it?"
Hu Yifei thought about it and was quite tempted, since the internet had suddenly stopped working. However, after glancing at the surrounding lights, she frowned.
"Okay, I'm bored tonight anyway, but the lights need to be dimmed a bit, that'll create a better atmosphere!"
Upon hearing this, Tang Youyou immediately ran excitedly to turn off the lights.
With a crisp "click" from the switch, the room was plunged into darkness, with only the television emitting a dim light.
Zeng Xiaoxian forced himself to endure the discomfort and rubbed the cold sweat from his palms; "Are you telling a ghost story or a historical story?!"
"Shut up, don't say a word!"
Hu Yifei rolled her eyes at him, then said mysteriously:
"The story is about to begin~"
......
"That was a dark era; traitors and lackeys were products of that time!"
"Among them, the most insidious and vicious is Mr. Yi, known as the Flower-Destroying Killer. He has only women and power in his eyes, and his hands are stained with the blood of his compatriots..."
As Hu Yifei recounted the story, Chen Xiaobai seemed to see a figure walking into the military police prison.
I realized I couldn't do anything; I could only be an observer. Maybe it wasn't my turn to make my appearance yet.
A henchman in black followed him and reported meticulously, "Boss, that guy is almost done. The military police will definitely come to collect him tomorrow!"
"They didn't say whether they'd die or live," Mr. Yi's deep, cold voice slowly rang out.
The younger brother was slightly moved; "You mean...?"
"Nai Zu Te!" (Kill him!)
"Understood," the underling nodded immediately, then continued his report: "Mr. Du is investigating the batch of JH that was sent to Chongqing!"
Mr. Yi twirled the ring on his finger and casually said, "Oh~ you mean Yue Sheng? Tomorrow at headquarters, help me invite him to dinner!"
"What if...he doesn't come?" the younger brother asked hesitantly.
"Not coming? Humph!"
Mr. Yi sneered; "One group special!!! (Take them all out)"
Mr. Yi then left directly.
The scene then shifts.
I arrived on the street, where a bustling crowd passed by.
Hu Yifei's voice slowly rang out: "On the other side of the city, a student drama troupe is secretly planning a shocking assassination, which includes my great-grandmother, Hu Xiaofei!"
The scene shifts to the drama club.
A student, played by Tang Youyou, led several passersby to greet Hu Xiaofei. The group clapped excitedly, and Tang Xiaoyou exclaimed:
"Sister Xiaofei, the performance just now was absolutely amazing! Eight hundred soldiers... the audience was so excited!"
"You acted great too! Everyone, hurry up and pack up the props, there's a charity performance tonight!"
Hu Xiaofei held her hand and said sincerely.
However, just as the group agreed and prepared to leave, a man in a suit, whose hair looked like it had been licked by a calf, stood up.
At the same time, Hu Yifei's voice rang out: "This is Zeng... Xian'er, the vice president of our drama club's student council!"
Voice-over:
Wow, he looks just like a celebrity!
Zeng Xiaoxian: "Wang Leehom! Wang Leehom!"
Chen Xiaobai: "It's clearly Brother Zeng!"
Hu Yifei: "No, I suddenly remembered, Bi Fujin!"
Click~
Zeng Xiaoxian's heart is broken...
......
Zeng Xian'er turned around and said to them seriously, "Everyone, I have a fellow villager who works in the intelligence command. I learned from him by chance that there will be a high-profile meeting tomorrow night. One side is the local underworld boss, Du Yuesheng."
On the other side was a notorious traitor, Yi, whom everyone wanted to kill!
"I think we can use this opportunity to do something!"
Passerby A: "Hey, I signed up for the intermediate interpreting course at New Oriental. Class starts the day after tomorrow!"
Passerby B: "I'm going to do an internship at Oulanya soon, and I'll get an offer in three months!"
Passerby B: "My dad bought me a plane ticket to New Zealand to escape the summer heat!"
Everyone: "Yay!!!"
"No way, this is ridiculous!"
Chen Xiaobai couldn't help but complain.
Hu Yifei immediately shouted sharply, her words carrying a pointed meaning: "Don't interrupt. In short, nobody wants to pay attention to that unscrupulous women's chairperson. This is mainly to illustrate that point. Just so you all know it. Continue, continue!"
Zeng Xian'er looked at the group of people in front of her who were talking animatedly, and immediately slammed her hand on the table in anger.
“Stop！！！”

It's so late, there shouldn't be many people around. This humble author is secretly begging for some encouragement to update and a small gift...
