"I solemnly promise that all the above praise comes from the bottom of my heart." As she spoke, she winked playfully at Qi Sheng.
"Thank you." Qi Sheng lowered his eyes, but his heart was filled with turmoil.
Although it was somewhat fake, he still reluctantly accepted it.
They went through several more rounds, and almost everyone made a mistake, except for Qi Sheng who didn't make a single one.
Gu Luoqi felt that he probably wouldn't make a mistake today, so would he really find this game enjoyable?
She noticed he wasn't in a good mood today, but she roughly knew why...
"Let's take a break," she said gently.
"Okay." Xu Cheng was also tired of playing.
Once everyone had relaxed a bit, Gu Luoqi spoke to Qi Sheng, "Actually... if you're not feeling well, you can go back first."
"Is it okay?" Qi Sheng looked up and looked at her very seriously.
Although Gu Luoqi felt a little strange, she still nodded, "Yes, of course."
That's obvious, she didn't force him to stay here.
Upon hearing this, Qi Sheng stood up without hesitation. "Then I'll go back to my room first. You all can have fun."
In short, they were somewhat polite, but not much.
Gu Luoqi: Ah, this…
What else can she do?
He simply gave an awkward yet polite smile and nodded stiffly.
I couldn't help but think to myself that this guy was being way too obedient.
The others were about to say something, but Qi Sheng spoke too quickly, giving them no time to speak.
Everyone: "..."
"He wasn't feeling well, so he went back first," Gu Luoqi added for him.
Instead of continuing to play Truth or Dare, they teamed up to play other games.
Although Li Mingya didn't know how, she was still very happy to watch.
The group of people were having a great time.
They played for a long time, and it wasn't until it got a bit late that everyone cleaned up the scene and left one by one.
"Do you want me to give you a ride?" Gu Luoqi asked, looking at Cheng Cheng and Li Mingya, who hadn't left yet.
“There’s no need for that. I’ve already asked my dad to pick us up,” Cheng Cheng said.
It was too late and not safe, so his parents were also a little worried about letting them go home by themselves.
"Why don't you let Yaya stay here and let Xiao Chengzi go back alone?"
"Besides... I'm so lonely at home all by myself~" Gu Luoqi could come up with such shameless words so easily.
"Host, you look like a sleazy, greasy man harassing beautiful women," the system objectively assessed.
"You're the greasy one, you're the sleazy one," Gu Luoqi retorted without hesitation.
“No, she has to come back with me.” Cheng Cheng refused her without hesitation.
Seeing that both of them were quite determined, Gu Luoxi had no choice but to give up.
Actually, she was just saying it casually; she wasn't really determined to keep Li Mingya, because she had other "plans" for today.
After they all left, Gu Luoxi went to the kitchen alone.
Today isn't just her birthday...
After a moment's consideration, the system offered its opinion: "I don't think Qi Sheng really wants others to celebrate his birthday for him..."
Based on its rational analysis, it believes that if a person has never mentioned their birthday to others over the years, it means that they do not want others to celebrate their birthday for them.
Although it sounds a bit convoluted, there is a reason for it.
“I think there’s something wrong with your analysis, because he clearly told me this when he was a child.” Gu Luoqi believed that if her memory wasn’t faulty, then she had indeed seen Qi Sheng’s expectant little eyes.
No matter what has happened over the years, the expectation from back then must have been real.
Considering that he might feel excluded, she didn't tell anyone.
"Alright." The system realized that it couldn't really convince her, so it could only wish her success.
Gu Luoqi diligently followed the tutorial to learn how to make longevity noodles, even planning to roll out the noodles herself. She also had to keep an eye on whether Qi Sheng was asleep or not.
Whether Qi Sheng is moved or not, the system doesn't know, but it's almost moved by its host.
Although Gu Luoxi had been learning to cook for a while, she wasn't very skilled, let alone a technical skill like making hand-rolled noodles. So the whole process was a bit bumpy, but fortunately the finished product looked pretty good, and she couldn't resist taking a picture with her phone.
Then she noticed the time; the day was almost over, so she quickly picked up the longevity noodles and rushed to Qi Sheng's room.
