My Dragon Baby and Billionaire Husband-Chapter 751 Cinematic Proposal 5

Si Lisao also wanted to go on an adventure with the male protagonist.

Ye Siyuan inexplicably tensed up. She hugged his neck and planted a fragrant kiss on his forehead, saying, "You have to be careful."

"Zombies can’t see me, so what’s there to be afraid of? Just wait here."

"Who says they can’t see us? Isn’t it that only the main characters can’t see us, while irrelevant supporting characters can see and interact with us? Those zombies are clearly NPCs. They can see you! What if they bite you?"

Unable to bluff his way out, Si Lisao laughed helplessly and reminded her, "Si Yuan, even if I get bitten, it’s just the sensation. Once the movie ends, it’ll be fine. Look at how nervous you are. Where’s your IQ?"

That seemed right?

Ye Siyuan stuck out her tongue, but there was no relief in her heart. She said, "It’s just my concern clouding my judgment. You can gloat all you want, but anyway, you have to be careful. Even in the movie, you’re not allowed to get bitten by a zombie. Promise me."

"Alright, I promise you."

Si Lisao promised Ye Siyuan solemnly, his tone firm and steady. The Dragon Horns on his forehead were very prominent.

Before leaving, Si Lisao instructed Ye Jingzhe, "Take good care of your aunt."

Ye Jingzhe, the Little Bingshan, nodded his small head firmly.

Afterward, Si Lisao left the restaurant with the fat uncle and the male protagonist through the staff’s invisible door.

Ye Siyuan held Ye Jingzhe’s hand and found a nearby spot to sit.

The female protagonist also found a place to sit.

The young man stood by the invisible door, waiting anxiously.

The elderly couple huddled together, reminiscing about the decades of ups and downs in their marriage and encouraging each other.

Ye Siyuan’s heart was as tense as the female protagonist’s. Her beloved man had gone out adventuring, and she feared for his safety, completely unable to calm down.

About twenty minutes later, the male protagonist returned.

Si Lisao returned as well.

As the female protagonist ran toward the male protagonist, Ye Siyuan couldn’t help but rush toward Si Lisao. She looked him up and down to make sure he was completely unharmed, then, with her heart still racing from fear, she hugged him tightly.

Si Lisao gently eased her away and said, "I’m fine. I didn’t encounter any danger on the way."

"I don’t believe you! Your Dragon Horns aren’t even showing!"

Ye Siyuan smelled blood. Although it wasn’t his, he had definitely been in a fight. Even if he tried to hide it, the speck of blood on the back of his collar betrayed him.

A glint of amused exasperation shone in Si Lisao’s deep eyes. "My Dragon Horns aren’t lie detectors; they don’t pop out every time I tell the truth. Do your little nephews’ horns do that?"

It seemed they definitely didn’t.

Si Lisao lifted Ye Siyuan onto his back and said, "Let’s go."

The male protagonist had already picked up the female protagonist and was preparing to leave the restaurant.

The elderly couple followed.

The young man was the last to follow.

Perhaps having learned his lesson from the previous incident with the air vents, the young man didn’t want to be at the front. Being at the back would make it easier to retreat to the restaurant if necessary.

On the way, Si Lisao lowered his head to his little follower, Ye Jingzhe, and said, "Keep up. Don’t fall behind."

From his serious tone, it was clear this journey wasn’t likely to be smooth sailing. Ye Jingzhe, the Little Bingshan, nodded earnestly, saying, "Uncle, I won’t hold you back."

Ye Siyuan lay on Si Lisao’s back, her arms wrapped around his neck, vigilantly scanning their surroundings. She also lowered her head to Ye Jingzhe and said, "Jingzhe, you must keep up. We might encounter NPC zombies. Don’t take this lightly, and don’t treat it like just a movie, understand? We could really face danger."

"I understand, Aunt."

Ye Siyuan said in frustration, "It’s all my fault for holding everyone back. I can’t even walk on my own. I’m such a liability."

"You don’t look like a pig, though."

Si Lisao carried her with ease; her weight was nothing to him.

Moreover, this was due to her character’s setup in the movie. As a female viewer in an immersive film, she was easily affected by the female protagonist. If the female protagonist was injured, she would be too. This was an unavoidable method to make the movie experience more immersive; it wasn’t that she wasn’t capable.

"Then what do I look like?" Ye Siyuan blinked playfully.

Si Lisao didn’t speak because the male protagonist made a "SHHH" gesture, as the female protagonist was also talking.

The hallway led to a corner, and around that corner, several zombies were wandering.

Earlier, when the male protagonist and Si Lisao had retreated, they had encountered zombies in the hallway but managed to escape.

This was the only passage to the elevator; they had to get through it.

The male protagonist and Si Lisao simultaneously put down the girls from their backs. The male protagonist whispered, "I’ll draw the zombies away. You and the others need to get past the corner to the elevator as fast as you can. If I don’t make it back in time, don’t wait for me. Just take the elevator straight to the third floor. Remember, don’t go to the basement level, and don’t go to any other floors. Only the third-floor elevator entrance is temporarily safe. Got it?"

The female protagonist and Ye Siyuan nodded simultaneously, then asked in panic, "You’re going to lure the zombies away?"

The male protagonist said, "Don’t worry, I’ll be fine. If I don’t lure them away, none of us can get through. It’s the only way."

Si Lisao then said to Ye Siyuan, "They’re just a few zombies; what can they do to me? Move quickly, and don’t actually be a liability. Right now, you just need to remember not to hold us back, understand?"

Ye Siyuan nodded, taking his words to heart. "Then you be careful. I’ll wait for you at the elevator entrance."

"And what if I don’t make it back for you to wait?"

"I’ll definitely be able to wait for you. After all, you said it yourself—they’re just zombies. What can they do to you?"

Ye Siyuan threw his own words back at him, determined not to escape alone.

Si Lisao found himself unable to retort.

He tapped her forehead with his index finger. "You clever little thing. I’ll get there."

And so, the male protagonist and Si Lisao moved out simultaneously to lure away the zombies in the hallway beyond the corner.

The young man pressed himself against the corner wall, peering stealthily into the other hallway.

Once the zombies had chased after the male protagonist and moved away, the young man gestured and said, "Let’s run!"

The female protagonist, limping, tried hard to keep up with the young man.

The elderly couple supported each other, following behind them.

Ye Jingzhe, the Little Bingshan, supported the limping Ye Siyuan, bringing up the rear.

After passing the corner, the hallway ahead was empty. The group quickly reached the elevator entrance.

The young man forcefully pressed the elevator button.

Just then, the elevator doors opened. The young man stepped in and urged the others, "Hurry up, get in!"

The female protagonist refused to enter. "I have to wait for him."

The young man said, "Are you crazy? Let’s go! He’ll catch up."

"No, I want to wait for him here."

The young man couldn’t spare any thought for the female protagonist. Once the elderly couple was inside the elevator, he was about to close the doors and make it descend.

The female protagonist bit her lip. She wanted to ask them to wait too, but seeing the two frail elderly people, she ultimately swallowed her words. She let them take the elevator and leave first, while she herself remained steadfast by the elevator entrance, unmoving.
