86. Fortune changes every day.
After Yu Chun shouted those three earth-shattering "I love you!", her fair face turned as red as a ripe shrimp, and her bare chest rose and fell slightly.
His eyes darted away, not daring to look at Chu Xiao, who was sitting right across from him and whom he could meet with a normal glance.
After all, this was his first time confessing his feelings.
Although he confessed his feelings because he lost the game, the person he confessed to was indeed someone he liked.
He was so ashamed he wanted to disappear into the ground.
Chu Xiao didn't speak, but stared intently at the shy boy in front of her, as if trying to etch Yu Chun's image deep into her mind.
A subtle silence fell over the room.
After an unknown amount of time, Chu Xiao reached out his hand—
Generally speaking, when people are nervous and at a loss, they tend to overthink. A simple expression or a normal word from someone else can cause a huge uproar in their mind.
Therefore, when Yu Chun saw Chu Xiao's outstretched hand, her heart immediately jumped into her throat.
In that instant, countless explicit images flashed through his mind—Would Chu Xiao pounce on him against that pile of playing cards? Would those hard playing cards be uncomfortable against his back? What would happen after he pounced on him? Would he do this, that, and that?
Yu Chun felt her blood boiling, and her eyes became even more glazed.
However, Chu Xiao simply picked up the phone that was placed next to the two of them with a nonchalant expression.
"???"
Yu Chun stared at Chu Xiao's actions, secretly displeased.
This was Young Master Yu's first confession!
Countless handsome men and beautiful women would kill for such a thing, and now that Chu Xiao has gotten it, this is the reaction he gets?
What is she going to do with her phone? Reply to a message?
What important information is so important that it has to be replied to at this time? Is this the right thing to do?
With this thought, Yu Chun's face stopped blushing, her breath stopped rumbling, and even her eyes became clear.
Although he felt he was being brushed off, he still forced himself to appear understanding and asked, "Is there something urgent that requires an immediate reply?"
Chu Xiao shook her head: "No."
She flashed a rare, radiant smile that revealed eight teeth, instantly captivating Yu Chun and making her forget to pursue the matter further.
Chu Xiao subtly moved his finger, unlocked the screen, skillfully selected an audio file, and pressed the play button before Yu Chun could react.
I love you! I love you! I love you!
"?!"
Yu Chun's eyes widened.
Those familiar lines, that familiar voice... wasn't that his confession just now?
That's right, this is Yu Chun's confession.
Even before the King's Game began, Chu Xiao secretly turned on the phone's recording function in order to record the exciting moments of the game.
To ensure clearer sound reception, Chu Xiao deliberately placed the phone between the two of them.
Yu Chun's loud confession was thus recorded and included in the income.
After the audio finished playing, Chu Xiao tapped the screen again, and the audio started looping.
I love you! I love you! I love you!
I love you! I love you! I love you!
I love you! I love you! I love you!
"You...you...!" Yu Chun was both angry and embarrassed, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. She pounced on the phone to grab it, "Delete it right now!"
"Does it sound nice?" Chu Xiao nimbly dodged Yu Chun's pounce, staring at the screen as if deep in thought. "How about I change my alarm to this from now on? Or... change your call reminder to this too?"
Chu Xiao's smug, self-satisfied demeanor made Yu Chun's head spin.
"You! You wait!" He took a deep breath. "The game... the game isn't over yet!"
Seeing that she couldn't get the phone and had no way to deal with Chu Xiao, Yu Chun could only pin all her hopes on the next round.
He rubbed the cards together with a loud "clack-clack" sound, as if he were trying to rub in all the luck he had in his life, while muttering to himself, "Goddess Guanyin, Jade Emperor, God of Wealth, Earth God! Ancestors of the Yu family above! Please! Help me! Let me win a hand! If I win, I will eat vegetarian food for three months straight!"
Yu Chun laid out the shuffled cards with a sense of tragic grandeur.
He took another deep breath, closed his eyes, drew a card, and almost held his breath as he slowly flipped it open—
King of Hearts!
Hahahaha!
Yu Chun's face instantly lit up with the ecstatic joy of winning a small lottery, and his triumphant laughter echoed throughout the room.
He suddenly looked up at Chu Xiao, beaming, and said, "What goes around comes around! Your good days are over!"
