Su Man was initially a little worried about playing this drinking game with a few young people. Would she seem too out of touch? But Zhou Wang was more adept at handling the situation than she had expected, which reassured her.
With this mindset, Su Man’s attitude towards the game became more positive. She no longer carried herself with the air of an elder, but instead, was eager to get back at her niece.
After another round, she finally found an opportunity.
Su Man once again drew the King Card.
"Ranran, just to confirm, there’s no limit to the number of people punished in these rounds, right?"
Su Man had this question because, in the previous round, when Shen Yutong was the king, she had chosen two number holders to be punished, making Miao Ying and Su Yajing drink a love cup together.
"Yeah, no limit, Aunt. You can say whatever you want..."
"Then... numbers 2, 3, and 4 have to answer a question from everyone!"
Su Man, determined, called out three numbers without worrying about whether she herself would be affected.
Zhou Wang looked over instantly.
No wonder she’s a woman who can make a name for herself alone in Li City, she’s so fierce!
And she really did hit the mark. Miao Ying drew number 2, Shen Yutong drew number 4, and as for Zhou Wang... naturally, he was number 3.
Seeing everyone reveal their numbers, Su Man nodded in satisfaction and took charge: "Ranran, you go first!"
When Su Yajing looked over, Miao Ying didn’t give her a chance and quietly raised her glass...
She was originally someone with social anxiety. Listening to the questions Su Man had been asked earlier, if it were her, she’d probably have died on the spot. So she wisely chose to down her drink first as a sign of respect.
Shen Yutong didn’t seem too flustered, straightening up her 34D, even with a bit of defiance, "Little Ranran, bring it on!"
Angered by the deliberate emphasis Shen Yutong placed on the word "little," Su Yajing ignored her aunt’s presence and went straight for the jugular with a question fit for a girls’ dormitory internal talk session:
"Tongtong, when was the last time you comforted yourself? Be specific with the time!"
Shocked, Su Man realized her niece had gone easy on her earlier...
And hearing Su Yajing’s question, Shen Yutong’s face turned beet red and she reached out to pour herself a drink.
"Go ahead, drink, oh, I thought you were something special, but you’re just a small fry after all..."
Su Yajing mocked sarcastically.
Usually suppressed by Su Yajing, Shen Yutong was not willing to back down, put her drink down in a rush, "Fine, I’ll tell, who’s scared of who... The last time, was the night before last, so what?"
"Ah, wasn’t I sleeping right next to you at that time..."
Now it was Su Yajing’s turn to be bewildered. She soon remembered something and exclaimed, "Were you going to the bathroom that night... Oh, Shen Yutong, and here I wondered why you took half an hour without returning, you really kept me in the dark!"
Shen Yutong instantly regretted what she had just blurted out, but it was too late. Facing the strange looks from Zhou Wang and Su Man, she wished she could bury her head in the ground.
Unfortunately, the obstacles were too great; she couldn’t lower her head any further.
"It’s over, it’s over, Aunt, room 202 is contaminated, better get someone to disinfect it later..."
"What are you talking about!"
Unable to take it any longer, Shen Yutong covered Su Yajing’s mouth, and the two girls sitting on either side of Zhou Wang used him as a bridge, messing around, making Zhou Wang quite "uncomfortable," his expression even twisted a bit.
After quite a while, the playful scuffle between the two girls came to an end. Su Yajing eagerly urged Su Man, "Aunt, it’s your turn to ask her!"
Perhaps infected by the atmosphere, Su Man didn’t hold back either. She directly voiced the fleeting curiosity that had crossed her mind:
"Yutong, who do you think about during those times?"
Since she knew Shen Yutong was single, she was curious about a young girl’s thoughts, maybe comparing them to her own when she was younger, to see if there was any difference.
Originally, Su Man thought that since Shen Yutong answered the first question, this one shouldn’t be difficult, right? Who knew Shen Yutong would become even more embarrassed.
This time, not even caring whether Su Yajing would mock her again, she frantically poured herself a drink and gulped it down.
Su Man was a bit puzzled. What made it even stranger was that Su Yajing didn’t tease her again, instead advising her to drink slowly, and Zhou Wang just smiled without saying a word...
A suspicious Su Man, connecting Shen Yutong’s earlier expressions and her occasional glances in a particular direction, suddenly understood something.
Could it be...
Su Man was genuinely surprised. Mainly seeing Su Yajing’s knowing smile, she obviously knew something as well, but she didn’t seem to care much.
Su Man opened her mouth but, in the end, didn’t say anything, merely reflecting silently in her heart...
Oh well, young people are far more adventurous than she imagined; perhaps she really was a bit out of touch...
...
As the game continued, even Su Man started to let loose a little.
Be it the extent of the punishments or the degree of the truth questions, both began to edge towards all sorts of risky territories.
For instance, there was a punishment proposed by Su Yajing involving two people, where one had to kiss the other’s earlobe.
But the one who drew the short straw was Su Man!
Luckily, before Su Man could react, Zhou Wang, who received the number card, had already poured himself two cups quietly and downed them back-to-back, clearly taking on her punishment as well.
