Fu Jin felt the woman’s leg touching his and moved away to keep a distance from her.
But the woman was bold. She moved closer to him and put her arm around his shoulders.
“I haven’t done anything to you yet. Why are you running away? Are you shy?”
Fu Jin was a little annoyed. “Miss Fang, you can make jokes, but don’t go overboard.”
Fang Han looked aggrieved. “I’m not joking. I’m just interested in you. Won’t little big brother give me a chance?”
Fu Jin faked a smile. “No, Miss Fang. I’m not into cougar relationships.”
Fang Han felt hurt. She put her hand on her chest with a hurt expression as she said, “Just because I was born four years before you, I’m still very cute.”
“Miss Fang, you’re not cute. You’re acting cute. Alright, please go flirt with someone else. I’m busy. Be good.”
Fu Jin was blunt and curt when he mocked someone.
His “be good” was a warning. If the receiving party was some sweet young thing, the girl would have run away in tears.
But Fang Han was someone who had seen the world. She looked at Fu Jin’s cold face and found him even more interesting.
Song Zhou watched as Fang Han seduced Fu Jin. Although she wasn’t successful, he could learn the how by watching her.
He moved a little closer to his target and asked, “Miss Ruan, you’ll feel hot after soaking for a while. If you don’t feel well, you must tell me.”
“Okay.”
When Ruan Qi saw him suddenly so close to her, she avoided eye contact with him and moved away. She did not know if it was because of the hot spring, but her cheeks were flushed.
When Song Zhou saw that she was disgusted, he didn’t move closer. He must control himself because if he pushed her too hard, this girl would definitely do something to upset him again.
He tried to engage Zhu Fan in a conversation but Zhu Fan was slightly introverted and didn’t talk much. After a while, he got bored and started playing with his phone.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtFu Jin found some dance videos and thought that they were pretty good. So, he showed them to Ruan Qi.
Ruan Qi craned her neck to look at his phone and knocked into Zhu Fan. She apologized and continued to look at Fu Jin’s phone.
Zhu Fan had a higher vantage point. He looked down and immediately looked away, but his ears turned red.
Just now when the woman’s soft body knocked into him, he felt a little turned on. But there were other people there and there was not much he could do.
“Ruan Qi, if you want to watch the videos, just take his phone.”
Song Zhou was angry. He took Fu Jin’s phone and gave it to Ruan Qi.
His words and action were quite abrupt and everyone looked at him. Song Zhou quickly cleared his throat and said, “I’ll go get drinks for everyone.”
Fang Han laughed out loud. She glanced at Ruan Qi and said meaningfully, “Mr. Song, you’re really considerate and know how to take care of people.”
Song Zhou knew that Fang Han was a smart woman. She could see that he had feelings for Ruan Qi.
He did not plan to hide it anyway, so he replied politely, “Thank you for your compliment, Miss Fang. What drink would you like?”
Fang Han turned to look at Fu Jin. “Little big brother, what would you like?”
Fu Jin ignored her and said to Song Zhou, “A glass of warm water, please. Thanks.”
“You’re indeed a little big brother with few desires. I’d like some apple cider vinegar, please.”
Song Zhou then asked Ruan Qi, “Mango juice for you still? Would you also like some mango-flavored pastries?”
“Sure.”
Ruan Qi was still staring at a video on Fu Jin’s phone, paying little attention to what Song Zhou said.
Zhu Fan’s eyes darkened when he heard her answer.
If they weren’t close, how would Song Zhou know her preferences? Something that her boyfriend, he, didn’t even know?
Song Zhou ignored Zhu Fan and left.
Half an hour later, everyone got out of the pool after soaking in the hot spring for a while. Fang Han invited everyone to play a game, or it would be too boring.
None of them had any objections. Fang Han told everyone that they would play a number game where they would take turns to count upwards. Anyone who said the wrong number would have to do either a Truth or a Dare.
The rules of the game were simple. Any number that had a seven or was a multiple of seven was a wrong number. Players should skip those numbers when they counted upwards. If they accidentally said them, they would be punished.
Everyone was nodding their understanding of the rules when Tang Beibei and Jiang Jingchen walked in. Tang Beibei’s cheeks were glowing like peach blossoms in full bloom, red from soaking in the hot spring or maybe something else.
She held the man’s hand so naturally like the two of them were glued together and could not be separated.
Fang Han turned to look at Fu Jin and sighed. “These two have such an enviable relationship.”
Fu Jin looked at her and said, “Little big sister, no one will take you for a mute if you don’t speak.”
“Little big brother, I’m just sighing from the bottom of my heart. Is there no freedom of speech?” Fang Han was like a little concubine who had been bullied as she bit the ends of her hair and looked aggrieved.
Fu Jin frowned slightly but did not argue with her.
Fang Han chuckled and asked Tang Beibei if she would like to join them in their game. Tang Beibei agreed to play with Jiang Jingchen.
They drank their drinks and started the game. Fang Han was the first to start. She said 1, Fu Jin said 2, Ruan Qi said 3, Zhu Fan said 4, Song Zhou said 5, Tang Beibei said 6, and Jiang Jingchen said 8.
Fang Han smiled. “1 can tell that Young Master Jiang is good at math. Let’s speed up. 9.”
The numbers 14 and 17 were skipped but Tang Beibei blurted out 21.
21 was a multiple of 7. After Tang Beibei said 21, she went blank for a few seconds. When she saw that everyone was staring at her, she facepalmed herself helplessly.
Fang Han immediately said, “Mrs. Jiang has made a mistake. Truth or Dare, you choose.”
Tang Beibei turned to look at Jiang Jingchen and said, “Truth?”
Fang Han seized the opportunity and immediately interrogated her. “Did Mrs. Jiang give her first time to her first love?”
Her question was loaded. She asked about Tang Beibei’s first time as well as her first love.
If Jiang Jingchen was not her first love or her first time, Fang Han’s question would sow discord between the two.
She was clearly a bold player.
But Tang Beibei didn’t understand and asked obtusely, “What first time?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFang Han was stunned for a few seconds before she chuckled. “I didn’t expect Mrs. Jiang to be so innocent. First time as in the first time you had sex with a man.”
Tang Beibei blushed. She didn’t expect her to ask such a private question. She pointed at Jiang Jingchen awkwardly.
Jiang Jingchen put his hand over her eyes as to cover her shame.
He replied for her, “Beibei’s first love is me. As for her first time, it’s naturally me.”
“Mr. Jiang is quite lucky to be with his first love.”
Fang Han watched Fu Jin’s expression as she spoke. Fu Jin feigned indifference, but his curled fingers were pressed tightly against his thumb.
He was upset and frustrated.
Fang Han guessed that Fu Jin’s affection for Tang Beibei was nothing more than a crush.
She quickly said, “Let’s reset. We’ll start with Young Master Jiang this time.”
Jiang Jingchen said 1, and soon Ruan Qi said 21. Ruan Qi wanted to correct herself and say 22, but Fang Han immediately said, “That’s against the rules. You two besties are really alike. You both love 21.”
Fang Han looked at Zhu Fan, then at Song Zhou. She rubbed her palms together and then asked Ruan Qi, “Truth or Dare?”
Ruan Qi hesitated for a few seconds before she said, “Truth?”
“Have you never experienced your first kiss?”
“…” Ruan Qi held her forehead and shook her head.
When Zhu Fan saw Ruan Qi shaking her head, he frowned and looked at her with a complicated expression.
Song Zhou saw her vexed expression and smiled. He recalled how she had made the first move in the alley last time.
However, when he looked to the side and saw Zhu Fan’s cold gaze, he narrowed his eyes. Was the disdain in Zhu Fan’s eyes jealousy?
“Miss Ruan Qi shook her head, which means that she’s had her first kiss. Well, it looks like she’s also a little beauty with love experience.”
In the next round, everyone was more alert until Fu Jin said 117. He seemed to be in a bad mood or distracted.
He chose Dare.
P.S. from the author Ming Zhi: “Beibei, how can I get everyone to give me gold coins and flowers?”
Beibei offered to dance for everyone, but Ming Zhi said, “That’s like asking your husband to squander his money to give you gold coins!”
Beibei then said, “Alright then.. Dear readers, please remember to shower Ming Zhi with gold coins and flowers, yeah?”
