Chapter 89 Better Than a Confession



Xiang Jin pursed her lips, her face turning somewhat pale.

"What's wrong? Is it inconvenient to talk about this?"

Su Jiayu's scheme succeeded, and her words seemed to say something like: What, are you afraid to talk about being a mistress?

The air around was somewhat still.

Su Jiayu smiled smugly: "Let me reiterate the rules of the game: you must answer the questions truthfully. If you can't answer, you'll have to accept the punishment."

“There’s nothing inconvenient about it.” Xiang Jin took a deep breath. “The first time was three years ago.”

The man in the Four Seasons Hotel, whose name I don't even know now.

Three years ago?

The group looked at each other in bewilderment.

Judging from her age, she probably hadn't even graduated three years ago. I can't believe she was slept with back then. Is the rumor true? Is she really a mistress?

The unexpected uproar made the atmosphere even more awkward.

"Alright, alright, stop focusing on that and let's start the next round." Sister Ding spun the wheel.

The pointer then stopped precisely in Xiang Jin's direction.

Xiang Jin hesitated for a moment, then pointed to the right: "I choose dare."

"Truth or dare... Here it comes! Please say to the first person of the opposite sex you meet after you leave the house, 'I've liked you for a long time, can I kiss you?'" Su Jiayu's smile became even more smug.

If you play along with her, Xiang Jin, you're just waiting to be in big trouble!

"Isn't this a bit too much? Maybe we should just forget about it," Sister Ding said, frowning.

“Yes, yes, we’re all married, it’s not really appropriate to play like this,” Xie Fangfang said.

"Xiang Jin chose this herself, and she's not worried, so why are you all so anxious?" Su Jiayu rolled her eyes.

She turned to Xiang Jin and said, "But if you don't want to, that's fine too. The punishment is drinking, but this time you have to finish this whole bottle."

Xiang Jin frowned.

My stomach was already burning up when I drank that glass of wine. If I drink this whole bottle, I'll definitely end up in the hospital tonight.

She didn't want to die.

"If I don't meet any members of the opposite sex when I go out, does the game become invalid?" Xiang Jin asked.

"Of course." However, the probability of this is basically zero.

Xiang Jin nodded, stood up, and walked towards the back door of TKV.

"Hey Xiangjin, you've gone the wrong way! Why are you going through the back door? You should go through the front door." There's hardly anyone on that street; it's impossible to run into anyone there.

"But you didn't say beforehand whether it was the front or back door, so why can't it be the back door?" Xiang Jin ignored Su Jiayu's reaction and continued walking forward.

The surrounding private rooms echoed with ghostly howls and screams.

Xiang Jin rubbed his ears.

He turned and went down the stairs.

I walked along the long corridor for several minutes without seeing anyone.

We're almost at the door.

Xiang Jin quickened his pace.

Just then, a group of people walked towards the escalator entrance next to them, and the leader was none other than Murong Xiao.

Tonight he wore a gray suit, his right hand casually tucked into his trouser cuff, which made him look even more upright and handsome. His thin lips were tightly pursed, and his eyes were deep.

I looked up and saw her.

Murong Xiao was slightly taken aback.

With his plan falling through, Xiang Jin was somewhat dejected. His colleagues stood watching from a short distance away. Xiang Jin clenched his knuckles and steeled himself as he walked up to Murong Xiao.

"You've been drinking?" The strong smell of alcohol immediately darkened his expression.

"Didn't I warn you not to drink anymore?" He frowned, his voice icy.

ah?

Xiang Jin was stunned.

When did he warn her? Why doesn't she remember?

Wait a minute, does Zhou Zhou mean when she says, "If you do this again, I'll break your legs"? She means when she says, "Next time, I'll drink with you again," instead of when she says, "Next time, I'll flirt with you again."

No, no, now is not the time to think about this.

Xiang Jin's expression hardened.

"Um, I have something to tell you." She looked into his dark, inky eyes and clenched her fist.

"You all go out first." Murong Xiao waved to the people behind him, then stood still and waited for her to speak.

Her heart suddenly started pounding, as if it was about to jump out of her throat. Xiang Jin pressed her hand to her chest, her lips parted, but somehow she couldn't make a sound.

I've liked you for a long time, can I kiss you...?

This playful remark is more like a confession.

She had secretly loved him for ten years, a secret she had kept hidden and found it difficult to speak of.

Murong Xiao watched quietly, as if he had been waiting for her to speak with a lifetime of patience, without the slightest impatience.

Xiang Jin grew increasingly anxious, clenching his fists tighter and tighter until his nails dug into his flesh.

The tension made her feel a little short of breath; fine beads of sweat appeared on her forehead, and her limbs felt slightly cold.

A very long time passed, and she still couldn't bring herself to say it.

"Fine, I'll accept the punishment." She sighed, dejectedly looked away, and turned to walk towards the private room.

“Not a single drop of wine missing.” Su Jiayu looked on with amusement.

They had witnessed the whole thing. Although they were far away and couldn't see the man's face clearly, they could tell from his figure and demeanor that he must be an exceptionally handsome man.

Such a gem, she couldn't even bring herself to say it, tsk tsk.

Isn't she a mistress? Isn't she the best at seducing men? Is this also a tactic?

Xiang Jin silently picked up the wine bottle.

Just as they were about to start drinking, the door to the private room was suddenly pushed open: "I'll drink her wine."

The wine bottle in her hand was taken away, and Xiang Jin looked at the person who came.

Murong Xiao's face was somber and his demeanor was cold. He picked up the wine bottle and started drinking. After a few gulps, he had already emptied a small portion of the bottle.

He gulped down a few more times and drank more than half of the bottle of wine.

Then, I drank it all up completely.

The surroundings suddenly became quiet.

Xiang Jin was stunned, staring blankly at him.

Suddenly, someone shouted, "He, he's Master Xiao? Master Xiao, it really is Master Xiao!"

The private room erupted in chaos.

What? Murong Xiao? He's Murong Xiao?

Why would Murong Xiao be here?

He actually drank for Xiang Jin! How could someone like him drink for Xiang Jin?!

Xiang Jin was a little scared.

"Are you alright?" She was worried about him and wanted to reach out to help him, but she pulled her hand back halfway through.

“This is the last time.” His gaze was as cold as ice.

"What?"

"If you drink again next time, I don't mind really breaking your legs." He whispered in her ear, and his words made Xiang Jin tremble.

"I won't dare to do it again, I'll never dare to do it again..." Xiang Jin timidly withdrew his gaze.

"go home!"

"Oh, okay..." Xiang Jin picked up her bag from the sofa, behaving as obediently as a primary school student, and quickly went out the door.

Murong Xiao followed immediately.

"Wait a minute, Mr. Xiao. I'm Xiang Jin's colleague. May I ask if you know Xiang Jin?" After drinking a bit, Su Jiayu became bolder.

Judging from what they just did, Xiang Jin and Murong Xiao have a close relationship. Could it be that Murong Xiao is the one keeping Xiang Jin as his mistress?

Murong Xiao frowned slightly: "Is there something you need?"

"It's nothing... I just wanted to tell you that Xiang Jin has been to prison before, so she's a little bit sensitive in her personality."
