Chapter 174 Truth or Dare
How many exes have you had?
After two glasses of fine wine, Liang Hui's peach blossom eyes glistened with tears, but his mind remained clear.
He started counting on his fingers with sharp eyes and keen mind.
Lin Xi cracked open a walnut to catch her breath, and couldn't help but roll her eyes at Liang Hui's action.
Alcohol makes people dizzy, but it also makes them genuine, so genuine that they don't bother to pretend their emotions and will just roll their eyes directly.
"Twelve, I guess."
Despite feeling dizzy and lightheaded, Xiang Xin still joked, "Have you collected all twelve constellations yet?"
Liang Hui: No, not at all.
Lu Wei: "You have a good memory; you still remember your birthday clearly."
"Of course." Liang Hui chuckled a few times, then paused, his expression suddenly turning melancholy: "I wonder how they are now."
"puff……"
In peacetime, upon hearing this, one would definitely laugh at the other person for pretending to be profound and a romantic.
But now, Liang Hui's eyes suddenly became very serious: "Although they are my exes, I sincerely hope that they are still alive and well."
Lin Xi gave a thumbs up.
"Whom do you trust the most among those present?"
"Such an ambiguous question!" Xiang Xin sighed, then her voice drifted off into a whirlwind: "Although my... direct superior is still here... to be honest, I trust Comrade Zhang San the most!"
She stood up unsteadily and raised her palm to salute Lin Xi.
It wasn't the gesture of clenching your fist and placing it over your heart.
Lin Xi looked at Xiang Xin and sighed again: The child has grown up.
But this honest opinion came a little late; Lin Xi silently fed her a walnut.
Although it's just a drop in the ocean, we should still try our best to mend the slight rift in our sisterhood.
Xiang Xin suddenly raised her glass and clinked it with Lin Xi's: "I want to have a drink with San San."
Lin Xi answered.
Tell me about the most painful thing.
Hearing the question, Lin Xi straightened up, then realized that the question wasn't directed at her, and she breathed a sigh of relief.
If you asked her this question, the answers would be endless.
If she really had to weigh the pros and cons, she would have to think for a while about which thing was the most painful.
She doesn't want to play the victim and cry in front of her friends right now.
She also felt dizzy and lightheaded, as if the world had tilted to one side. This feeling was somewhat familiar, like when she turned into a zombie and couldn't control her neck.
Once she had this feeling, she was startled when she saw Lu Weishi beside her.
The redness spread from Lu Wei's cheeks to his neck, but he seemed to be in slightly better shape than Xiang Xin, and was even able to sit up straight and answer the questions attentively.
"Parents died, and his body was covered in sores."
"You didn't read the question properly. I asked you to say one thing, not two!" Lin Xi suddenly felt that her neck couldn't support her head anymore. She used her hands to support her face, distorting her features to hide the soreness that was about to overflow from her eyes, and her voice was also unstable.
She asked Lu Wei, "If I had to choose the most painful one between these two things... which one would it be?"
Lu Wei stared at her blankly for a while, then suddenly reached out and gently patted her shoulder twice, raising the cup in front of him to lightly touch Lin Xi's cup.
Although the two reborn individuals had different personalities and fates in the early stages, they shared some of the same pain.
Lin Xi tilted her head back and drank it all in one gulp. The wine in the glass flowed down her throat with the movement, and the stinging in her eyes also flowed back down.
After putting down his wine glass, he noticed that Lu Wei had only taken a sip.
"?" She drank some more, but with her low alcohol tolerance, even more food wouldn't have much effect. Lin Xi also felt her heart racing, and her emotions and behavior were somewhat out of control. She directly accused, "You, you see..."
Knowing he was in the wrong, Lu first explained, "I have a mission later."
He suddenly remembered the purpose of today's New Year's Eve dinner, and then looked at Xiang Xin, who had accepted the task and was already lying on the table like a limp rag. Lu Wei glared at her, but she didn't seem to notice.
But I can't get drunk.
We can only rely on Liang Hui.
Xiang Xin, who was slumped over the table, suddenly had a sudden burst of energy: "Don't listen to his nonsense, he has no mission, he's going to meet an old friend in the middle of the night, and San San is going to get him drunk! It was him who made me sob sob sob..."
Lu Wei stuffed a spoonful of glutinous rice ball into Xiang Xin's mouth to shut her up.
“Mm,” Lin Xi said, indicating her understanding.
Liang Hui slapped the table: "Zhang San, it's your turn."
"Go ahead and ask."
"The one you drew is 'Praise the opposite sex in the room'."
Lin Xi took a deep breath. Fortunately, this wasn't a very difficult problem.
She first looked at Liang Hui: "You... have a good alcohol tolerance."
After all, Xiang Xin and Lin Xi had hardly ever drunk alcohol at this table. With Lin Xi's "adding fuel" to the fire, Xiang Xin had already passed out, and Lin Xi herself was also about to collapse. Although Lu Wei seemed to be still conscious, his speech and behavior were obviously different from usual.
Liang Hui: "Anything else? Although we're not that close, I heard we had a connection in our past lives. Say a few more compliments."
"Hmm..." Lin Xi rubbed her throbbing temples: "Quite smart."
She remembered that when Liang Hui saw her zombie, he understood why Lin Xi had become a zombie.
"He is also very loyal."
After so many lifetimes, he and Lu Wei are still good friends.
"Okay." Liang Hui accepted the offer without hesitation.
Lin Xi was in a daze for a while when she realized that the two people who hadn't fallen were looking at her. She was in a daze and it took her a long time to realize that her topic was to praise the opposite sex present, and there was one opposite sex she hadn't praised.
Lin Xi hesitated for a long time before looking at Lu Wei and giving a wry smile: "You're a good person."
Lu Wei: "..."
Liang Hui: "Hahahahahaha!!"
After finishing her glutinous rice ball, Xiang Xin suddenly sprang to her feet, her spirits soaring: "Why only praise the opposite sex! That's not fair! Praise me! Praise me, San San..."
Lin Xi felt dizzy, as if she was drunk, or as if she was being shaken by Xiang Xin's seemingly endless bout of lucidity.
-
When Lin Xi opened her eyes, she found herself in an unfamiliar bedroom, with Xiang Xin sleeping peacefully beside her.
After a hangover, Lin Xi felt dizzy and lightheaded, a feeling she had never experienced before. Supporting her heavy head, she slowly got up and opened the door.
It was Lu Wei's house. The hot pot mess on the table had been cleaned up, and a pot of warm water and a thermos had been placed there.
Looking at the thermos, Lin Xi knew that Xiang Xin had passed on her porridge-cooking techniques to Lu Wei.
It's hard to judge which of Lu Wei's porridge and Xiang Xin's porridge tastes worse.
Lin Xi quickly washed up and sat down at the table to slowly drink her porridge.
I glanced at the time; it was 1 p.m. on the first day of the Lunar New Year.
The lab was closed for the holidays, so she still had time to recover.
The door suddenly opened, and two familiar-looking people entered, though their faces were also somewhat unfamiliar.
Yesterday, when Lin Xi saw Lu Wei, his face was flushed. Today, Lu Wei's face was a little blue and a little purple.
She couldn't help but ask curiously, "Where did you all go?"
Lin Xi was a little confused, thinking they had talked about this yesterday.
Did you go to the usual place to see someone? Or did you meet some elderly person?
Liang Hui: "We went to the outer city."
Lin Xi looked at Liang Hui's clean face and Lu Wei's bruises, rubbed her eyes, and realized that she was not seeing things:
"Have zombies evolved outside that can punch people?"
