Chapter 31 Chapter 31 Truth or Dare for Adults
Normally, people who have just started dating should be together sweetly, cherish the National Day holiday time, and go out to play together, but Qi Yan and Shen Xiliu compared their itineraries.
After finishing, Qi Yan's expression was solemn: "On the first day, you have to attend a family gathering, on the second day, I have to attend my cousin's wedding, on the third day, I have to pick up my brother, on the fourth day, Brother Xu will hold an event in the bar, and on the fifth day, Director Shen and the teacher asked me to attend an academic conference..."
I can't find time. There is not a single day free. It's so difficult to even make a date with someone. It's not normal.
Shen Xiliu looked at him, narrowed his narrow eyes, and smiled faintly: "It seems that the original plan to camp together will fail. It's a pity that I wasted a truth to ask you what you want to do recently."
The susceptible period was too long, so the two tried to kill time and played a lot of games during this period. Since Qi Yan wanted to increase the understanding between the two, when they were drawing the joker cards, he added a condition: Truth or Dare. The loser could choose truth or dare, and the winner could ask the loser a question or ask the loser to do something based on the choice.
Qi Yan often played this kind of game with his friends, and he thought he could win easily. As a result, he did win easily, but the person who won easily was - Chen Xiliu.
"So, do you choose truth or dare?" Shen Xiliu held up his face and looked at him with a smile.
In the first round, facing Shen Xiliu's leisurely smile, Qi Yan felt something was not good, so he chose the big adventure first, conservatively estimating that Shen Xiliu would not make it too difficult for him, but the result was -
"It's actually a big dare? That's great. Come over here and kiss me." Shen Xiliu smiled reservedly and hooked her finger at him, motioning him to come over and kiss her quickly.
“?!”
Completely unexpected, Qi Yan was embarrassed. He touched the tip of his nose and said, "Is this how we play the first round?" Isn't it not nice to kiss someone when we're just in a relationship?
Chen Xiliu looked at him, liking him more and more, and reminded him: "You can't refuse, it's you who chose the adventure. Qi Yan, you can't be so afraid to even kiss your lover, right?"
"We are all adults." Shen Xiliu said lightly.
Qi Yan, whose retreat was blocked, said: "..."
He was silent for three seconds, and under Shen Xiliu's smiling gaze, he kissed his forehead with a fearless attitude.
“…I was careless.”
The kiss on the forehead was light and fleeting.
Shen Xiliu narrowed his eyes, and the three teardrop moles under his eyes looked a little mysterious and bewitching on his fair face: "I should say kiss, I won't do it again next time."
When Qi Yan heard this, he immediately said, “Mr. Shen, let’s continue.”
If I lose the next game, I will definitely not choose the big adventure!
Then, as expected, I lost again.
"...Haha, you actually chose truth this time?" Shen Xiliu laughed even more happily, crossing his hands against his chin, "So, Qi Yan, when are you going to mark me?"
"Cough cough cough!" Qi Yan, who was drinking water tactically, choked. Is this a simple question to ask?
He began to regret playing this game with Shen Xiliu! This question is even harder to answer than kissing...
Fortunately, Shen Xiliu did not keep winning. Throughout the game, both sides won and lost.
But Qi Yan reasonably suspected that Chen Xiliu had deliberately let him go. After all, the other party seemed too at ease, as if he was deliberately letting him ask some questions to resolve the doubts in his heart.
Now hearing Shen Xiliu bring it up, Qi Yan felt a little uncomfortable, but he didn't show it.
During the susceptible period, his emotions fluctuate greatly and are difficult to control. However, when he is in a normal state, he can calmly give the other person advice: "I can't go during the National Day holiday. Can we go together on the weekend after the National Day?"
"This is the only way for now." Shen Xiliu thought about finding something for Shen Yunshu to do to prevent him from letting his subordinates take a day off, which would cause the plan to fail.
The wedding day soon arrived. In the past few days, there were a lot more strange calls on the phone. Qi Yan knew it was Yi Hongli calling without answering the phone. There were a few more messages in the trash box, all of which were false and hypocritical.
Chen Xiliu didn't like to hide things. After the two of them got together, the people around him knew that Qi Yan was his lover, and the people in the research institute were no exception. If nothing unexpected happened, Yi Hongli should have received the news.
Fearing Chen Xiliu, Yi Hongli did not dare to do anything to him for the time being, nor did he dare to disclose the stolen information, unless he wanted to completely break off relations with him.
Qi Yan estimated: "I should have another month..."
He called his uncle Qi Jingsheng to ask, but he still hadn't found what he wanted, and it would not be a good idea to delay any further. The other party asked him whether he wanted to tell Xia Yunqie about this matter. Her condition has been much better recently and she is not as weak as before.
"Uncle, don't let mom know for now. If she knew, she would have taken it out back then. Telling her now will not be good for her health." Qi Yan shook his head and refused.
"I'll think of a solution. Don't worry, he will pay the price in a month at most."
At the venue where the Yi and Shen families held their wedding, guests arrived one after another. The wedding had not officially begun yet, but the sound control engineer backstage was preparing to play the opening video of the wedding later.
But the USB flash drive that was clearly put away disappeared somehow. He searched for it in a panic. The staff member next to him noticed and asked, "What's wrong? Is there something missing?"
The sound engineer said anxiously, "Yes, I clearly put it on the table just now, and I don't know why it suddenly disappeared. The wedding is about to start, and we can't afford to delay."
"Could it be that it was mistakenly placed somewhere else?"
"No, I clearly remember putting it on the table!"
"Look elsewhere. Maybe you accidentally lost it or remembered it wrongly."
The staff helped the sound control engineer to look for it. Both of them were sweating profusely, but fortunately they found the missing USB flash drive under a pile of files soon.
"Ah! Found it, found it! Luckily I didn't drop it, otherwise I would be doomed!"
"Yeah, you better be careful, it's so scary. This wedding is very important and it's about to start. If we lose the opening video, neither you nor I can take responsibility."
The two of them breathed a sigh of relief and talked in a state of luck, not noticing that the hotel waiter walking by outside, wearing a mask and a hat. He glanced at the people inside, put his hand on his hat, pushed the cart with cleaning tools out, and placed a cleaning sign outside the toilet.
Entering the empty toilet, he took out formal clothes from the cart, put them on quickly, wet his hair with water and combed it up, then fixed his hair in front of the mirror. His whole person suddenly changed from a plain cleaner to a handsome young man with a literary and bookish temperament.
He played with the sharpened knife and smiled happily: "How can I let you hold the wedding so easily? Today, either your Yi family is finished, or I..."
"Kacha!" Before he could finish his words, the door outside the toilet was suddenly pushed open. "Do you want to play the childish trick of 'either you die or I die' this time?"
The person who pushed the door was wearing casual clothes. He was tall and slender. He was wearing a baseball cap with the brim pulled down, which together with the shadow covered most of his face, adding a bit of mystery.
Gu Yanxing looked at him, narrowed his eyes slowly, and laughed: "What nonsense are you talking about? I just came by to see this wedding. On the contrary, you, were you invited to attend your brother's wedding? Yes, after all, he is your biological brother, and he finally got married. The object is a young lady from the Shen family. You can't miss it."
"Don't try to provoke me. It won't work on me." Qi Yan walked over to him and washed his hands. "It's not easy to find you."
Gu Yanxing hid too secretly. Qi Yan looked for him for several rounds and stared in the corner for a long time but still couldn't see him.
Instead, he saw Yi Hongli approaching Shen Xiliu, You Yi and the others to compliment them. To be honest, Qi Yan initially thought that Shen Xiliu would not come to the wedding.
After all, after that day, Shen Xiliu secretly destroyed a lot of cooperation with the Yi family, and now whenever he is in a good mood, he will easily create some trouble for the Yi family, so when Yi Hongli saw him, he behaved a little humble.
Even in this situation, he still dared to go to someone else's wedding. Mr. Shen is so arrogant. Qi Yan thought that Shen Xiliu really didn't take people seriously, and the arrogance he displayed towards other people was quite consistent with his status.
This also forms a contrast with Shen Xiliu's attitude towards Qi Yan, making it even more impossible to look away.
After all, no one would dislike their lover's unique attitude towards them, even Qi Yan is no exception.
"I won't waste any more time talking nonsense. I know what you are going to do, but I suggest you not to do it. It's not like we don't have any chance. It's not worth it to bury yourself with us."
Qi Yan collected his thoughts and washed his hands. Seeing that Gu Yanxing's expression did not change, he took out his mobile phone, retrieved the file, and handed it to him: "Take a look, if I'm not mistaken, as long as we find the thing, it will be enough to send Yi Hongli and the entire Yi family in. There is no need to sacrifice yourself."
Gu Yanxing took the phone in silence and quickly browsed the page. He didn't know what he saw, but his pupils trembled. He suddenly raised his head and asked Qi Yan: "Are you sure that he really did it himself?"
Qi Yan said calmly: "That's why I said you don't need to put yourself in danger. You can't release the things you found now, otherwise not only will you fail to bring him down, but it will also make him alert..."
"That's bad!" Gu Yanxing faintly heard the sound of music coming from outside. The wedding must have officially begun. Combined with Qi Yan's words, his expression suddenly changed, "I have put the things into the USB drive and will play them at the wedding..."
Qi Yan frowned and asked, "Is it the opening video?" If so, then we're in big trouble.
Gu Yanxing said: "No, it will be played automatically about ten minutes after the show starts. Just to be on the safe side, I also drugged the sound engineer, but it probably hasn't taken effect yet."
"I originally wanted to wait until all their emotions were high, release the video to disrupt the wedding, and then take the opportunity to deal with Yi Hongli..." Now it is obviously impossible to do so. He felt a little regretful. "Now there is still a chance to make amends. I will find a way to get it back immediately!"
"We may not have enough time. There are too many people over there. Even if we go over to get it now, we may not be able to get it back." Qi Yan glanced at the time and walked out quickly.
Gu Yanxing followed a few steps, his expression showing regret: "Damn it, if I had known you had already found out about this, I shouldn't have cut off contact directly."
He was worried that his plan would be found and stopped by others, so he simply cut off all means of contact. Neither Qi Yan nor Brother Xu could find him or convey any message.
"No, time is too tight. Let's split up. I'll find a way to cut off the power in the venue, and you can take the USB flash drive back during the power outage, okay?" Gu Yanxing took out the original USB flash drive, glad that he didn't lose it.
"Okay, I'll hurry up and put the USB drive away..." Qi Yan's heart was shaken, and a familiar sense of déjà vu flashed through his mind for some reason.
But it was only a moment, he took the USB flash drive handed over by Gu Yanxing, and the two of them quickly acted separately, and Qi Yan's journey was particularly smooth. Every time I was about to turn a corner, even though I didn't hear any sound and didn't find anything, I subconsciously hid.
He just happened to dodge the oncoming bodyguard, as if he suddenly had foresight, knowing what would happen next and how to avoid it.
"Something's not right with me." Qi Yan thought.
This premonition seemed to be guiding him to a certain place, but the inexplicable palpitations seemed to be warning him not to go there.
