As Zhao Xuerou touched her lips to the cold glass, the aroma of the wine instantly wafted over her face. She swallowed the dark red liquid, two drops still clinging to the rim of her lips, adding a vibrant touch to her already rosy lips. She wasn't really a big drinker, but she still managed to taste the astringency on her tongue, and even felt its weight. After swallowing, a refreshing flavor filled her mouth and nose.
She wiped her mouth, exhaled, and didn't find it delicious; instead, she felt a strange "stimulation."
They drew cards again, and according to the numerical order of the previous round, Luo Xiaoli took out one card first, and then the others drew cards.
Xiao Rou's determination to win grew stronger. She wanted revenge on the other two, and she was already thinking about what kind of question would make Ke Bing feel utterly ashamed, at least on the same level as the question Ke Bing had just asked. She wanted to carry out a brutal killing, tear off her opponent's hypocritical facade, and reveal her most authentic self, without any scruples.
When she bent down to peek at her own cards, her face, which didn't show any numbers, was revealed, and her heart skipped a beat.
If it's K, I will be invincible.
Persistence pays off. When she confirmed that the card she held was the highest one on the table, she felt like she was in heaven. She took a deep breath and couldn't help but twitch her lips. Zhao Xuerou looked at Ke Bing with a provocative gaze, her smile already hard to hide.
"Let's unveil it!" she said, rubbing her hands together eagerly.
Ke Bing hadn't even looked at the cards yet, but she already had a bad feeling. She stretched out her slender fingers and lifted the paper in her hand. A small 4 came into view, and she immediately covered her face, her face full of black lines.
Luo Xiaoli held an 8 in her other hand. Although it wasn't a high card, the loser had already been decided, and she wouldn't have to suffer even if her card was one number higher than Xiao Bing's.
With a death-defying resolve, Ke Bing smoothed her hair, a blush rising to her beautiful cheeks. She knew she couldn't escape it; what was coming would come. She had already prepared herself mentally when she tormented Zhao Xuerou earlier. Given the relationship, girls don't really care about saving face, which makes things more interesting.
Those weak and unstimulating questions would never have made it onto today's drunken stage.
Zhao Xuerou cleared her throat and gave a wicked smile. "Bing'er, listen carefully to the truth I'm about to ask."
"Come here."
"What's your favorite element when you watch action movies?"
"What movie?" she asked, surprised.
"You definitely understand what I'm saying, so stop pretending and answer me quickly."
Some action-packed films often feature a particular element and carry it through the entire film to attract attention. Some people prefer the street, some the rooftop, and some the gentle and lovely neighbor.
This is the element that Xiaorou was referring to.
Don't assume that only boys watch these films; girls actually have just as much movie-watching experience as boys!
"I..." Xiao Bing stammered for a long time before finally managing to say in a barely audible voice, "I like the kind that's tied up, the kind that involves binding elements."
"Oh my god! I never expected you to be this kind of person, hahaha, I'm dying of laughter, Xiao Bing."
"What's so funny? Aren't you going to watch?"
"I really won't watch it."
"Stubborn to the end."
Ke Bing glared at Zhao Xuerou, who was laughing wildly, and gritted her teeth in anger. She didn't want to watch Zhao Xuerou laughing so hard that she was about to fall off her chair. She snorted twice.
It was someone else's turn to ask.
Luo Xiaoli wasn't particularly hostile. What she was curious about was how Ke Bing got her size, which was hard to look away from. So she asked, "What's your secret? Do you need to eat anything to supplement it or what?"
Luo Xiaoli squinted, her finger subtly pointing at the other person's broad chest, causing Zhao Xuerou to look over with curiosity as well.
Ke Bing lowered her head. "You mean this? Actually, I was quite gifted in this area when I was a child. I ate normally, and I never tried anything like papaya milk that people talked about. I really don't think it's a good thing. It makes walking very tiring, and I have to be careful when I sleep at night, especially when I run. It's so annoying, all jolting and bumpy. You want me to transplant it to you?"
"No, no, no!" Luo Xiaoli quickly waved her hand in refusal.
"Alright, we'll come back after we've asked all the questions."
Ke Bing's interest was also piqued. Originally, she was just drinking to appease Xiao Rou, but after several exchanges, she found it interesting herself.
During the pause between drawing cards, her gaze fell upon Luo Xiaoli, whose question had been somewhat unexpected.
Ke Bing had assumed that someone like Luo Xiaoli, a standard model of a successful life—beautiful, intelligent, and with a good life—wouldn't have any desires. She hadn't expected that Luo Xiaoli would also be troubled by certain shortcomings in her body. It turns out that in this vast world, with countless people, everyone feels they are imperfect.
Little did I know how many times I had envied your superior conditions and carefree life, Luo Xiaoli.
Ke Bing sighed inwardly, held the piece of paper in his palm, and looked at it.
Q!
"I am number 9."
After she and Zhao Xuerou finished announcing their cards, their gazes both fell on Xiao Li, who, under their watchful eyes, revealed her own 5.
Zhao Xuerou's eyes immediately lit up with eagerness. Her purpose was clear from the beginning: to get something out of Luo Xiaoli.
"You lost, now I have questions for you."
"Go ahead and ask."
"Under what circumstances would you leave Jiangcheng?"
Her gaze sharpened the instant she asked the question, and the words uttered from her thin, delicate lips instantly chilled the atmosphere.
Unexpectedly, Luo Xiaoli didn't care at all and answered easily, "There is no possibility that would make me leave him."
······
Afterwards, they asked many more questions, drank quite a bit, and then fell into a deep sleep on the bed.
