The tense atmosphere between Si Yiyan and Xu Zhenyu finally eased and this episode passed. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and quietly wiped their sweat. Being sandwiched between two powerful people at odds, they really could not stand it!
Si Yiyan suddenly held the hand that Wen Xinya had just released and squeezed her palm, whispering into her ear, “You are nervous, eh?”
His tone in “eh” rose slightly, a little questioning and holding a lot of meaning. Such a short sentence yet it could evoke her uncertainty and frustration.
Such ambiguous emotions gave her even more pressure.
The air by her ears was humid and slightly hot, raising all the goosebumps on Wen Xinya’s body. She shook her head subconsciously. “No… no!”
In fact, she was terribly nervous. The current Si Yiyan was too dangerous.
Her palms were cold and wet and were not very comfortable to hold. “Lies! Your muscles are contracting tightly, accompanied by accelerated heartbeat, shortness of breath, chest tightness, and sweaty palms. From a scientific perspective, this shows that you’re anxious and tense.”
Wen Xinya was speechless.
Whenever she had to face Si Yiyan’s official and authoritative academic official speech, she could only step back.
At an inhuman speed, Si Yiyan bit her ear fiercely. “If you lie, you will be punished!”
Si Yiyan’s bite was not a joke. Wen Xinya winced in pain and her eyes instantly moistened. She glared at Si Yiyan, whispering, “Don’t cause trouble, everyone is here!”
Si Yiyan looked at her wet doe eyes surrounded by crystal droplets, the light shining in her eyes. The most beautiful gemstones could not match her beautiful eyes. His throat tightened continuously and his body became agitated.
Si Yiyan gently licked her ears and said meaningfully, “I will let you go, for the time being. But when we get home later…”
He left his sentence incomplete, using a playful and ambiguous tone, causing Wen Xinya to blush as her heartbeat increased. Wen Xinya’s cheeks were scorching hot, just like the dazzling peach blossoms in spring.
Amongst the bustling conversations in the room, the flirtatious exchange between Wen Xinya and Si Yiyan was thought to be a secret between them, but this scene had been fully captured by Xu Zhenyu, who kept his eye on Wen Xinya.
Xu Zhenyu felt bitter.
Even before knowing Ninth Si’s true colors, he had already regarded him as his greatest love rival in life. Not only that, but he also went out of his way to calculate and control his life, making his life really uncomfortable.
From a man’s point of view, Ninth Si’s strategy of planning ahead was really frightening and yet still admirable.
However, from the perspective of a love rival, Xu Zhenyu could only feel helpless against him.
With one wrong step, everything went wrong.
With one missed opportunity, the chance was reduced to a bare minimum.
At this moment, Gu Junling suddenly picked up his glass and stood up. “It’s rare that everyone is gathered together. Come on, let’s all take a shot together!”
As his partner, Zhou Tianyu followed suit and raised her glass.
Xu Zhenyu sorted out his emotions, his pair of peach eyes flashing charmingly. “Even if you want to drink, you can’t drink without a reason. That’s too boring.”
Han Mofeng gave him a high-five. “Let’s congratulate Little Eunuch Gu for 15 years of struggle and finally achieving a historic victory of successfully earning his woman!”
Ling Qingxuan hurriedly yelled, “No, no, this is the first glass of wine today, it must be representative. Let’s celebrate Little Eunuch Gu who had been stuck by her side for more than 20 years and finally succeeded in losing his virginity! The Gu Family finally has a man!”
“Pfft—” The room erupted into laughter.
Zhou Tianyu was too shy to raise her head.
Gu Junling’s face was red including his ears as he kicked him. “Are you sure you’re not just envious and jealous?”
“Hahahaha…” The room was filled with laughter.
Ling Qingxuan flushed red in the face with agitation and shouted, “Who says? The number of girls that want to date me can line up from Capital city to Wa City.”
Xu Tongxuan said politely, “No matter how many girls you have, you can’t hide the fact that you are still a virgin.”
Everyone laughed even harder.
Du Ruo patted Ling Qingxuan’s shoulder, comforting him. “You are not alone, Brother Han is in the same state.”
“Pu—” Han Mofeng took a sip of wine and sprayed it without warning. Ling Qingxuan’s fair face instantly turned red as the red liquid hit his entire face.
“Hahahaha…”
Wen Xinya laughed till her stomach hurt and pointed at Xu Zhenyu. “Well, there is one more here!”
Xu Zhenyu’s face darkened.
Being a virgin, for men, was not something to be proud of.
Ye Feiyu laughed until she had tears flowing down her face. “Now the trend in society is to have clean and loyal dogs. Not bad, you guys are quite conscious and are able to keep up with social trends. Good job.”
Wen Xinya added, “32 likes for you guys!”
Si Yiyan whispered at Wen Xinya’s ears, “You are my first and last woman, am I physically and mentally clean?”
Wen Xinya’s heart trembled and she frowned. “Uh, well, of course!”
Was he seeking her praise and approval?
Why did she feel that there was something wrong?
Xu Zhenyu said with a dark face, “Say, aren’t Little Eunuch Gu and Tianyu the protagonists of today’s party? Why don’t we let them do a cross cup?”
“Okay!” Everyone agreed. In fact, Ling Qingxuan and Han Mofeng, who had just been made fun of, shouted the loudest.
No one could deny that although Xu Zhenyu caused a lot of trouble, he was quick on his feet.
Zhou Tianyu was the first to shout out, unsatisfied, “Xu-er, Junling and I haven’t offended you, don’t push the attention onto us and pull us under the water!”
“That’s right, we have been buddies for so many years, don’t leave us in the lurch!”
Xu Zhenyu had something to say. “Friend, you can die. I’ll save myself!”
Ling Qingxuan added, “Hey, after being buddies for so many years, you are still so naive. Aren’t friends for selling out?”
Wen Xinya shouted out, “Cross cup, cross cup…”
Xu Tongxuan, Du Ruo and Ye Feiyu also shouted with her.
Under such circumstances, Zhou Tianyu could not help but feel embarrassed even if she was angry. She said in a hurry, “Why have Xinya and God Si never done a cross cup, they should drink it first!”
She threw the torch to Wen Xinya, causing Wen Xinya to cover her heart with a sad expression. “Why are you treating me like that, considering how I’ve always regarded you as my best friend! Are friends for you to betray?”
“Pfft—” Everyone howled with laughter.
Ling Qingxuan laughed. “Such acting deserves an Oscar!”
