Truth or Dare

I wonder if the production team would cut the three of them from the edited version airing next week.

The production team was also hesitating over whether to remove them. This matter had blown up too much; He Jinyuan might well be labeled a disgraced artist. If the show included shots of him, it could be taken off the air.

But in the end, the director was tempted by the massive traffic and decided to take the risk for the rewards. Not only did he keep the three of them in the footage, he even gave them a little more screen time—at worst, he could delete He Jinyuan's scenes overnight once he was labeled a disgraced artist.

Because what had happened today was somewhat unexpected, and rain had started falling intermittently that afternoon, the original filming plans were canceled and replaced with indoor activities.

With no phones and nothing to do, everyone was bored stiff. Chu Xiyue, who usually coasted through the show, unexpectedly took the initiative. "Want to play a game together?"

Li Fan'er and Zhao Xizhou looked over and asked in unison, "What game?"

As soon as the words left their mouths, they looked at each other. Li Fan'er disdainfully looked away, while Zhao Xizhou chuckled.

Chu Xiyue raised the dice in her hand, her gaze sweeping over Miao Qingran and Wei Shaolin. "Truth or Dare. Whoever rolls the lowest number takes the punishment. How about it?"

"Friendly reminder: anyone who chooses Truth absolutely cannot lie. I have special ways to tell whether you're telling the truth. Friends with secrets they can't reveal can choose not to play."

Wei Shaolin looked at Miao Qingran gently. "Qingran knows all my secrets. There's nothing I can't say."

Miao Qingran looked at Wei Shaolin too, a shy expression on her face. A sweet atmosphere seemed to flow between them.

Chu Xiyue sneered at the sight. That's exactly what I was waiting for you to say.

You bastard, let's see if I don't strip you bare!

The inspiration for Miao Qingran and Wei Shaolin's scandal came from a post I once saw on Zhihu. A boy had only scored enough on the college entrance exam to attend a second-tier university, and he made a post asking netizens how he could get his girlfriend, who had been admitted to a top-tier university, to accompany him to the second-tier one. I don't know whether that post is still around.

Truth or Dare

Li Fan'er was bored out of her mind and didn't want to sit there staring Zhao Xizhou down, so she joined the game.

Seeing this, Zhao Xizhou joined as well.

Li Fan'er glared at him, and Zhao Xizhou chuckled.

They chose the dining table. Chu Xiyue sat alone at the head, with Li Fan'er and Zhao Xizhou on her left, and Miao Qingran and Wei Shaolin on her right.

Everyone had a set of dice by their hand, while the box in the middle contained some questions. The person with the highest roll would randomly draw a question and ask it of the person with the lowest roll. If the respondent could not answer, they had to accept the questioner's designated punishment or drink bitter melon juice.

They had each written questions and put them in the box. Afraid that karma might come back to bite them, they had not written anything too outrageous.

First round: Chu Xiyue rolled six, and Li Fan'er rolled one.

Chu Xiyue drew out a question, glanced at it, and asked, "What is your favorite color?"

Li Fan'er breathed a sigh of relief. "Blue."

Second round: Li Fan'er rolled five, and Zhao Xizhou rolled one.

Li Fan'er drew a slip of paper and glanced at it. Her expression turned strange as she stared at Zhao Xizhou and gritted out, "When was your first kiss?"

No one had expected the second question to be so explosive, so everyone turned to Zhao Xizhou.

Zhao Xizhou looked at Li Fan'er. His Adam's apple bobbed slightly, and a faint smile curved his lips. "In high school, she... Hiss!"

Pain shot across the top of Zhao Xizhou's foot. Turning his head, he met Li Fan'er's warning gaze, as if she were saying, Try saying one more word.

"Alright, next round." Li Fan'er withdrew her foot.

The system said to Chu Xiyue, [Host, I know this one. Zhao Xizhou gave his first kiss to Li Fan'er in high school. Back then, Li Fan'er pinned him down on the rooftop and forcibly stole his first kiss!]

An image of Li Fan'er pinning Zhao Xizhou down on the rooftop and kissing him appeared in Chu Xiyue's mind. "Tsk. They really were exes. They both liked forcing kisses on people. Who would have thought Li Fan'er was so fierce when she was younger?"

In the next round, Li Fan'er's luck remained incredible, while Miao Qingran rolled the lowest number.

Li Fan'er drew a question and asked, "What is the thing you regret most so far?"

Miao Qingran froze. Reflexively, she glanced at Wei Shaolin, who smiled at her.

Miao Qingran came back to herself and answered casually, "Nothing. I don't have anything I regret."

The moment she finished speaking, Chu Xiyue tapped the table and looked at Miao Qingran with clear, steady eyes. "Classmate Miao Qingran, you can't lie in Truth."

Everyone looked at Miao Qingran.

Miao Qingran's eyes widened, and her ears instantly turned red. "S-sorry!"

Wei Shaolin held Miao Qingran's hand and apologized to everyone. "Sorry. Qingran probably didn't want me to feel guilty, so she chose to lie."

"Qingran's greatest regret is that she failed to get into Tsinghua's graduate program. It's all my fault. We got into a car accident when I was taking Qingran to her interview that day, causing her to miss it."

Miao Qingran shook her head. "It's not your fault. I was just unlucky. Ever since I was little, accidents have always happened whenever I had a major exam. I'm used to it. Not getting into Tsinghua was a little regrettable, but I don't blame you. Maybe this is just my fate."

"I lied just now. I'll punish myself with three cups." Miao Qingran picked up the bitter melon juice beside her and drank three cups in a row, her face turning green from the bitterness.

Wei Shaolin handed her some water. He looked at Miao Qingran and smiled.

Chu Xiyue's gaze fell on Wei Shaolin. "Next round."

The dice rattled. Chu Xiyue rolled the highest number, while Wei Shaolin rolled the lowest.

Chu Xiyue looked at Wei Shaolin, drew a question from the box, glanced at it, and chuckled.

For some reason, the moment Wei Shaolin saw Chu Xiyue smile, a bad feeling suddenly rose in his heart.

Chu Xiyue said, "What is the thing you've done that hurt your significant other the most?"

Everyone turned their eyes toward Wei Shaolin in unison. This question would cause trouble whether he answered badly or refused to answer!
