"Truth or Dare?"
The moment these words were spoken, many eyes lit up. The class reunion had indeed been a bit dull, and after Gu Lingfei left, it became even more boring.
After all, they were all adults now—who wouldn’t want to play something a little more exciting?
"I'm all for it, double thumbs up!" A girl with a bun hairstyle casually glanced at Jiang Che and swallowed hard.
Zhou Kai stepped forward. "I’ll be the referee. Ji Ningxue, as a member of Class 6, you wouldn’t refuse, would you?"
Ji Ningxue hesitated. She did want to refuse—after all, "Truth or Dare" among adults often carried some risqué undertones. But with Zhou Kai putting her on the spot like this, it was hard to decline.
"Ms. Ji, since you’re not saying anything, I’ll take that as a yes," Zhou Kai chuckled, though a hint of regret flickered in his eyes.
"What a shame Gu Lingfei left just now—we’re one member short. Oh, right! Young Master Jiang is still here. How about... you take Gu Lingfei’s place? What do you say?"
Jiang Che raised his eyes and gave Zhou Kai a thoughtful look.
This guy... his emotional intelligence was actually pretty good. It was almost a waste for him to play the role of a minor antagonist in the "Dragon King’s Son-in-Law" trope.
"No objections," Jiang Che replied lightly, taking a sip of orange juice.
Seeing Jiang Che agree, Zhou Kai was ecstatic inside.
He’d gambled right!!!
"Alright, then! I’ll be the referee from now on..." Zhou Kai began showing off his preparations.
"The rules are simple—we’ll draw cards. A red card means 'Truth,' a black card means 'Dare.' The two selected will play rock-paper-scissors to decide the winner, and the loser must complete the task on their drawn card."
It had to be said—opportunity favored the prepared.
Zhou Kai had gone to great lengths to ensure Young Master Jiang’s entertainment, even preparing the cards in advance.
Once Zhou Kai finished explaining, the others couldn’t hide their excitement. These rules promised a thrilling game with plenty of unpredictability!
Soon, the game began. The spinning wheel on the round table landed on two people—a man and a woman.
"Alright, Li Qing and Wang Qiang, each of you draw a card..."
Jiang Che yawned in boredom.
Can we speed this up? Hurry up and get to my part already!
While the others were having fun, this entire game had been set up for Jiang Che’s sake.
"Ningxue, come sit here. It’s too crowded where you are."
Jiang Che patted the empty seat beside him.
"Oh~" Ji Ningxue didn’t think much of it and moved over.
Now, less than half a meter apart, Jiang Che could even catch the faint fragrance emanating from her—a scent that could easily stir a man’s hormones.
It was enough to make one’s thoughts wander.
"Oh? The wheel landed on Ji Ningxue... and... Jiang Che?"
Ji Ningxue, who had been lost in thought, snapped back to attention when her name was called. As she looked up, everyone’s eyes were on her.
"Both of you, draw your cards," Zhou Kai said, his gaze sharp.
This "Truth or Dare" game had originally been meant for him and Ji Ningxue. He’d even spent the last three months practicing sleight of hand—without exaggeration, he was the master of this game!
But now, all his efforts had become Jiang Che’s advantage.
After drawing her card, Ji Ningxue glanced at it, her face flushing slightly.
Jiang Che, meanwhile, took one look at his own card and smirked. This guy... he had some nerve!
A round of rock-paper-scissors later, Jiang Che emerged victorious. With his uncanny ability to read women’s minds, no woman could beat him in this game.
"Young Master Jiang wins. Ji Ningxue, reveal your task."
With no choice, Ji Ningxue turned over her card.
[Dare: Drink one shot]
"I... I don’t drink. My alcohol tolerance is terrible," Ji Ningxue waved her hands in refusal.
But Zhou Kai had already handed her a glass of liquor.
"Ms. Ji, it’s just one drink. You wouldn’t refuse, would you?"
Ji Ningxue frowned. She was sharp enough to know better than to accept unfamiliar drinks in unfamiliar settings.
"I don’t drink liquor. Open a new bottle if you must."
Zhou Kai stiffened awkwardly—he had, in fact, spiked the drink. Now, it felt like his trick had been exposed.
"Haha, seems Ms. Ji doesn’t trust her old classmates much. Fine... a fresh bottle it is!"
Only after confirming the bottle was unopened did Ji Ningxue relax and take a sip.
The alcohol was strong. In no time, a faint flush spread across her cheeks, even tinting the tips of her ears pink.
She was tipsy but far from drunk.
For the next ten minutes or so, neither Jiang Che nor Ji Ningxue was called again.
"Oh??? The wheel landed on Young Master Jiang and Ji Ningxue again? What are the odds?" Zhou Kai feigned shock.
"Huh?" Ji Ningxue was stunned. Why them again?
When she saw her new task card, her face burned crimson. Another dare—and this time, the task was... [Kiss for three minutes without breaking]
Jiang Che’s card, as it turned out, was the exact same!
Meaning, whether he won or lost, he came out on top.
Jiang Che raised an eyebrow. Thanks to his insight, he already knew Ji Ningxue’s task. So this round... he’d let her win.
The rock-paper-scissors began. Ji Ningxue was beyond nervous—if she lost, she’d have to kiss Jiang Che?
The problem was, she was married. Even though her relationship with Xiao Chen was purely nominal, they were still husband and wife...
"Yes! I won!"
The moment she realized she’d won, Ji Ningxue was overjoyed—it felt like closing a multi-billion-dollar deal on the negotiation table.
"Ah, what a shame," Jiang Che sighed and flipped over his task card.
[Kiss for five minutes without breaking]
Ji Ningxue’s smile froze. She was utterly speechless, on the verge of tears.
Five minutes?! That was worse than her three-minute dare! Wouldn’t five minutes suffocate her?!
"Ooooh~"
"Kiss! Kiss! Kiss!"
The others immediately started egging them on, their faces alight with mischief.
Ji Ningxue’s useless husband and Jiang Che’s girlfriend had both left. If these two actually kissed... the fallout would be explosive.
"You all—" Ji Ningxue clenched her fists, anger flashing in her eyes.
"Uh... Ningxue, I heard you’re married. Your husband was here earlier—wouldn’t this be inappropriate? Since I lost... how about I take ten shots instead?"
Jiang Che’s tone turned deliberately considerate—a classic case of retreating to advance.
"That’s not acceptable! Young Master Jiang, ten shots could kill you!"
"Ms. Ji, your good-for-nothing husband isn’t even here. Would you really let Young Master Jiang drink himself to death?" Zhou Kai fanned the flames.
In an instant, Ji Ningxue was trapped in an impossible dilemma.
To kiss or not to kiss—this was a deadly trap.
lities. One day, Qi Yuan was buying groceries when he unfortunately came face-to-face with a monster. Just when he thought he was going to die on the spot, he suddenly heard the monster's thoughts... "This aura, he's definitely not an ordinary master!" "So terrifying, so terrifying." "A fight with my back against the wall, I can't take it anymore." Qi Yuan: Ah, no one told me that my awakened ability isn't telepathy, but rather the stronger my enemies imagine me to be, the stronger I truly become. PS: Zhou Hai in the first chapter is not the protagonist.
with countless casualties. As a top-tier gamer, Liu Xuan volunteered to join the fight, intending to dominate with his skills, but instead he obtained the hidden class: [Pacifist]. Unable to attack. Unable to use active skills. Fortunately, with each level gained, he acquired a new passive skill. And so, armed with a body full of passives, Liu Xuan slaughtered his way through the battlefield of ten thousand races! [You attacked Liu Xuan] [You gained the debuffs: 'Poison', 'Fear', 'Burning', 'Bleeding', 'Freeze', 'Silence', etc.] [Your attack speed has been reduced by 99%] [Your armor and magic resistance have been reduced by 99%] Warriors of the Ten Thousand Races: How the hell am I supposed to fight this?!
ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.
grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
