Chapter 10: 010 Game

A group of people drove to the beach and saw a huge cruise ship parked by the shore with brilliant lights, like a towering castle on the riverside in the dark.

They boarded the cruise ship. A huge table was full of fruits and snacks, with waiters shuttling back and forth with trays of champagne and beer.

Tao Xingxing was like a country bumpkin entering the Grand View Garden for the first time, her excited little face flushed red with excitement at all the novel sights.

Only Ming Jing remained calm from start to finish, as if walking in her own backyard.

"Everyone, eat, drink, and have fun tonight. Everything\'s on me," Charles Gao declared with a flourish, very generously.

"Woo hoo... " Cheers erupted.

"Charles, old rules, let\'s go." Situ Lin wrapped his arm around Charles\'s neck, ready to call on a few good brothers.

With a wave, Charles brushed off Situ Lin\'s hand and glanced at Ming Jing nearby, whispering, "You guys go ahead, I\'ll sit this one out."

Situ Lin raised an eyebrow: "Are you serious?"

Charles ran his fingers through his shiny, gelled hair and proudly proclaimed, "Of course."

Situ Lin said speechlessly, "Another short-lived enthusiasm, don\'t ruin a good girl."

"Just wait and see."

There were quite a few people that night, as Charles had many friends; some brought their girlfriends, and some brought their classmates - there were over twenty people in all.

Situ Lin looked up at the sky: "It looks like it\'s going to rain."

Jiang Jinchen found a corner sofa to sit on, and Li Jiaojiao immediately chased after him.

"Senior, I heard you got a guaranteed admission to Jiangcheng University. Congratulations."

Jiang Jinchen nodded coldly: "Thank you."

As Li Jiaojiao\'s eyes darted around, she spotted Zhu Xiangxiang not far away, with Sun Yi by her side. Although they were some distance apart and she couldn\'t see Zhu Xiangxiang\'s expression, Li Jiaojiao was certain that Zhu Xiangxiang must be itching to strangle her to death at this moment.

Li Jiaojiao laughed, trembling with joy, and even intentionally leaned towards Jiang Jinchen.

With a delicate voice, she called out: "Brother Jinchen..."

Jiang Jinchen\'s mouth twitched, and he coldly glanced at her, moving subconsciously to the side.

The cruise ship set off, slowly sailing on the sea. The salty sea breeze brushed past, accompanied by the cool night air, which was both profound and romantic.

"This is so boring, how about we play a game instead?" Zhao Qin suggested.

"What game?"

"Truth or Dare. Even though it\'s a bit cliché, let\'s play something exciting this time. If someone draws a dare card, they have to jump off the cruise ship."

"Hahaha, isn\'t that a bit too cruel? Who could be so unlucky?"

Charles raised an eyebrow: "What\'s there to be afraid of? There are plenty of lifeguards on the ship."

The group gathered together, and Zhao Qin began to shuffle the deck. Her shuffling technique was so adept that it was on par with that of the professional card dealers in the \'God of Gamblers\' movie. "The little king represents the truth card, and the big king represents the dare card. Everybody watch carefully."

Charles whispered to Ming Jing, "Keep an eye on her. Zhao Qin is up to something again. I just don\'t know who she\'s trying to play this time."

Tao Xingxing rubbed her arm and peeked at the deck behind her: "It\'s so high, won\'t you die if you jump?" After saying this, she couldn\'t help but shiver.

To prove that she hadn\'t cheated, Zhao Qin shuffled the deck several more times, then went around one by one, letting people draw cards.

Someone prayed, "Please don\'t let me draw it."

When it was Li Jiaojiao\'s turn, the two exchanged a glance, and Li Jiaojiao casually drew a card.

"Brother Jinchen, if I accidentally draw a dare card, can you jump for me? I\'m afraid of heights."

Before Jiang Jinchen could speak, Zhao Qin directly said, "No, you have to face the consequences of your own draw; otherwise, the game would be pointless."

The faces of the girls who were planning to let their boyfriends take their place changed in an instant.

Zhao Qin walked in front of Ming Jing, her eyes gleaming with fox-like mischief.

Ming Jing said calmly, "Xingxing, you draw first."

Tao Xingxing took a deep breath, hesitated for a long time, and finally chose a card.

Zhao Qin went back to Ming Jing.

Ming Jing glanced at her, her slender fingers brushing over the deck, her eyes intently focused on Zhao Qin\'s face.

Zhao Qin continued to smile calmly, but the pressure from those eyes gradually caused beads of cold sweat to form on her forehead.

Finally, Ming Jing pulled out a card, and Zhao Qin surreptitiously exhaled a breath of relief.

Zhu Xiangxiang stared at the triumphant Zhao Qin, her palms sweating with anxiety.

"Our great school beauty, Zhu, aren\'t you scared?" Zhao Qin taunted her.

Zhu Xiangxiang stood tall and straight, replying calmly, "There\'s nothing to be afraid of."

As she hesitated to draw a card, her fingers pointed at the deck, eventually settling on one card.

At this moment, as Zhu Xiangxiang pulled the card from the deck, Zhao Qin\'s satisfied smile caught her eye.

Zhu Xiangxiang\'s face instantly froze...

The thin card in her hand suddenly felt unbearably hot.

Sun Yi drew a card casually, wanting to ask Zhu Xiangxiang what she had drawn, but Zhao Qin suddenly turned and laughed, "Don\'t reveal the card ahead of time."

Sun Yi had no choice but to give up.

After everyone had drawn, Zhao Qin kept the last card for herself, then reminded everyone to flip their cards simultaneously.

To prevent Zhu Xiangxiang from swapping cards, she watched her every move intently.

So, seeing the big king in Zhu Xiangxiang\'s hand, she smiled with satisfaction.

However, when Zhao Qin lowered her head to look at the card in her hand, she was instantly dumbfounded.

Stunned for a moment, she suddenly looked at Ming Jing.

The girl sat in the crowd, her thin frame unremarkable.

However, the moment her eyes met with Zhao Qin\'s, she felt a chill running from the top of her head to the soles of her feet.

That little king was meant for Ming Jing, but it ended up in her hand.

Zhao Qin practiced her card skills out of personal interest, and she could make people draw exactly what she wanted them to draw. Not only was she quick with her hands, but she also dabbled in psychology. She had never met her match in this aspect.

She never expected to fall into the hands of a young girl today.

Zhao Qin laughed; it was interesting, too interesting.

Looking at the big king in her hand, Zhu Xiangxiang wasn\'t too surprised, as if she had already anticipated this. Sun Yi snatched the card from her hand and gave her his.

Li Jiaojiao, who had been paying attention, said, "Sun Yi, I know you want to play the hero and save the beauty, but we have to follow the rules of the game. If everyone does what you do, how do we play?"

"Yeah, Sun Yi, it\'s not right for you to do this."

"It\'s not easy to find a chance to show devotion to the school beauty; we can\'t miss it so easily."

"Hahaha... "

Laughter echoed all around, and Sun Yi couldn\'t take it any longer. He pointed accusingly at Zhao Qin, saying, "You\'re deliberately picking on Xiangxiang, aren\'t you?"

Zhao Qin pinched the little king in her hand and sneered, "Deliberately? If it was deliberate, I wouldn\'t have drawn the little king."
