Chapter 30: I’ll Drink This Glass for Her

It was the middle of the day. Zhao Qifei stood in the villa’s courtyard under the scorching sun. Yet, he still had to put on a show, saying to the camera with a carefree attitude, “We honor our bets. I’ll start running now.”

With that, Zhao Qifei started to run. He looked back and saw that the follow-cam cameraman hadn’t kept up. He frowned and said, “Why aren’t you following?”

“Oh, my equipment is too heavy. There are fixed cameras in the courtyard that can capture you running. I’ll just wait for you here,” the follow-cam cameraman said truthfully.

Zhao Qifei’s expression cracked. So he’s the only one suffering?

He quickly adjusted his expression and said to the follow-cam, “Alright then. You can rest. I’ll run by myself.”

With that, Zhao Qifei started to run in the courtyard. The villa, including the front yard and the back swimming pool, was about six hundred meters per lap. The weather was so hot that after one lap, Zhao Qifei was already drenched in sweat.

He was about to die of regret. If he had known, he wouldn’t have put on a show. Drinking a glass of wine would have been so much easier and much more comfortable than running under the scorching sun.

But he had already run one lap. If he stopped now, it would make him seem like he didn’t keep his word. So, he could only grit his teeth and persevere.

Upstairs, Mao Ning suggested that everyone go to the window to watch Zhao Qifei and cheer him on.

And so, Mao Ning, Su Jian Yue, Ren Peng, and Chen Zhibin stood in a row upstairs, sticking their heads out to cheer for Zhao Qifei below.

“Teacher Zhao, go for it! One more lap to go!” Chen Zhibin shouted excitedly from upstairs.

Su Jian Yue was leaning on the window, watching the excitement. “Awesome, awesome. Brother Zhao is really something else. He’s running all three laps under the scorching sun.”

“That’s right. I feel like Brother Zhao could run another three laps without a problem,” Mao Ning chimed in from the side.

Downstairs, Zhao Qifei was running, drenched in sweat. He looked up and his vision went black. A row of heads was neatly sticking out from upstairs, cheering him on.

Zhao Qifei’s face turned green with anger. Are you sure you’re not mocking me?

By the time he had finished running three laps under the scorching sun, the tank top he was wearing inside was soaked through.

At this moment, the live stream’s bullet comments were also quite lively.

[LOL, Mr. Show-off, let’s see if you dare to be so stubborn next time.]

[His tank top is soaked. So funny.]

[Jiang Ying is a real sister. She specializes in dealing with show-offs. I’m dying of laughter.]

[Tsk, your prejudice against Zhao Qifei is really strong. He didn’t even do anything wrong.]

[Zhao Qifei has fans these days? You’re not picky at all.]

By the time Zhao Qifei went up to the third floor with his wet hair, Su Jian Yue and the others were each eating a piece of chocolate mousse cake.

Seeing him all sweaty, Su Jian Yue was worried that he would make her older sister smell. So, she suggested, “Brother Zhao, why don’t you go back to your room to wash your face and change your clothes? Your tank top inside seems to be wet.”

“Yeah, the villa has air conditioning on. You should go change your clothes, or you’ll really catch a cold,” Yu Lin also reminded him.

Zhao Qifei looked at himself. He did look quite pathetic right now. “Alright then. Give me about ten minutes. I’ll be right back. Don’t eat all the mousse cake. Leave some for me. I haven’t tried the dessert Shen Xun made yet.”

“Don’t worry. We’ve saved some for you,” Zheng Tianming said, exasperated.

Su Jian Yue continued to happily eat her little cake and even acted cute with Shen Xun beside her. “Older Sister, this cake is so delicious.”

Seeing that the little puppy seemed to like it very much, Shen Xun smiled. “When we get back, if you want to eat it, I’ll make it for you anytime.”

“Hehe, you’re the best,” Su Jian Yue said, giving Shen Xun a sweet smile.

Mao Ning, who was next to them, coughed twice. “Ladies, we’re still here. Can you not have your own secret romance?”

The tips of Su Jian Yue’s ears turned slightly red. “No, I was just praising my older sister’s dessert for being delicious.”

“Hmph, I almost believed you,” Mao Ning said. He had figured it out. These two were either in the ambiguous stage or were already dating.

The group ate and waited. Fortunately, Zhao Qifei was quite punctual. Ten minutes later, he came downstairs in a short-sleeved shirt and shorts. “I’m here. Let’s continue.”

As Zhao Qifei spoke, he didn’t forget to take his share of the dessert and start eating. “Mmm, this cake is so delicious.”

Hearing Zhao Qifei’s praise, Shen Xun just nodded faintly. “It’s alright. It’s just a very ordinary cake. Let’s continue the game.”

“Yes, yes, let’s continue,” Mao Ning chimed in.

Since Zhao Qifei had been punished before, this time it was his turn to spin the bottle. He spun the bottle with force, and before long, the bottle turned to Yu Lin’s direction.

Zhao Qifei smiled and asked, “Do you want to choose truth or dare?”

Yu Lin also smiled. “Truth, I guess. I probably can’t run three laps.”

Hearing this, Zhao Qifei got angry. But on the surface, he couldn’t show it. He was about to die of frustration. “Alright, then truth. Is there anyone here you want to date? Who is she?”

“You can only ask one question. I’ll just answer one. There is someone I want to date,” Yu Lin said frankly. She even glanced at Su Jian Yue.

Su Jian Yue met Yu Lin’s gaze and quickly moved closer to Shen Xun’s side. I’m Older Sister’s little puppy. I can’t make her angry again.

“Alright, I’ll let you off. Let’s continue,” Zhao Qifei said. He had asked this question on purpose to make Su Jian Yue uncomfortable.

Yu Lin, however, said, “What do you mean, let me off? I answered the question.”

With that, Yu Lin spun the bottle. In the end, the mouth of the bottle slowly pointed to Chen Zhibin. “Do you choose truth or dare?”

Remembering Zhao Qifei’s miserable state, Chen Zhibin immediately said, “Truth, I guess.”

“Among everyone present, who is the person of the opposite sex you care about the most? You have to say their name accurately, oh,” Yu Lin said. She was much smarter than Zhao Qifei, directly requiring a specific person.

Chen Zhibin scratched the back of his neck a bit embarrassedly. Actually, the other two female omegas besides Shen Xun were also not bad. But Chen Zhibin thought he was also in excellent condition, so he still wanted to try for Shen Xun. Shen Xun’s family was so well-off. If he could get with her, he could save himself thirty years of struggle.

With that thought, Chen Zhibin looked at Shen Xun. “It’s Shen Xun.”

After Chen Zhibin said this, the others all had an “as expected” look on their faces.

Ren Peng even started to jeer. “Tsk, tsk, tsk, it has to be you. You just said it directly.”

“Of course,” Chen Zhibin said with a smug expression, but Shen Xun didn’t even give him a glance.

Shen Xun had been looking at the little puppy next to her the whole time. Afraid that the little puppy would get jealous, her right hand had even taken Su Jian Yue’s wrist, her thumb gently stroking it.

When Su Jian Yue heard that Chen Zhibin was interested in Shen Xun, she almost bristled. Her older sister had her, a little puppy, and that was enough. She wouldn’t want any other little puppies.

But before Su Jian Yue could get angry, she noticed that her older sister was holding her wrist and even caressing it with her fingertip.

Su Jian Yue was immediately soothed. She knew that her older sister didn’t like other little puppies.

After Chen Zhibin had spoken, Shen Xun didn’t react. He felt a bit embarrassed and could only quickly say, “Then it’s my turn to spin the bottle.”

With that, Chen Zhibin spun the wine bottle with force. The bottle slowly came to a stop, pointing directly at Su Jian Yue.

Chen Zhibin’s eyes lit up. He had finally found an opportunity to stir up trouble. “Do you want to choose truth or dare?”

Su Jian Yue looked at the wine glass on the table, which was half-filled with white wine. After playing for a while, Su Jian Yue felt a bit thirsty. She thought she might as well choose a dare. If it was too difficult, she would just choose to drink and taste it.

With that thought, Su Jian Yue said frankly, “I choose a dare!”

Zhao Qifei was now full of energy. He gave Su Jian Yue a thumbs up. “I was so tired from running just now, and you still dare to choose? Alright, you’re amazing.”

Shen Xun also looked at Su Jian Yue, not knowing what her little puppy was up to. But since the words had already been spoken, it wasn’t good to change them now.

“Alright, then I’ll give you the task,” Chen Zhibin said, smiling at Su Jian Yue to reassure her. “Don’t worry. I’m such a good person, I definitely won’t give you a difficult task. How about this, you kiss the person to your right for three seconds. A kiss on the cheek is fine.”

Shen Xun’s face immediately turned cold. “The person being kissed also has the right to refuse, right?”

Chen Zhibin nodded. “Of course. But the person sitting to Su Jian Yue’s right now is Liang Wenjing. Liang Wenjing, if you want to refuse, you can just raise your hand now.”

Liang Wenjing thought for a moment and did not raise her hand. She had had a good impression of Su Jian Yue from the very beginning. It was just that Su Jian Yue and Shen Xun’s relationship had always been close, and she hadn’t been chosen by Su Jian Yue for the first date. Now, it was not bad to have an opportunity for physical contact.

Seeing that Liang Wenjing didn’t refuse, Chen Zhibin’s eyes lit up. This was great. If Su Jian Yue kissed her, her relationship with Shen Xun would become distant. This was exactly the effect he wanted!

When Su Jian Yue heard this, she felt that she definitely couldn’t do it. To rashly kiss a girl, what would that look like? Besides, her older sister would definitely be angry.

With that thought, Su Jian Yue was about to raise her hand to take the wine glass.

Then, the wine glass in front of Su Jian Yue was picked up by Shen Xun. “My little sister can’t drink. I’ll drink this glass for her.”

“Hey, wait…” Before Chen Zhibin could finish his sentence, Shen Xun had already drunk the half glass of wine.

Su Jian Yue was also stunned. She had never expected her older sister to drink for her.

“Are you okay?” Su Jian Yue moved closer and asked, afraid that Shen Xun would get drunk.

Shen Xun shook her head at her. “I’m fine.”

“Is that okay? Su Jian Yue hadn’t even said anything herself just now, and you drank for her. What if Su Jian Yue wanted to kiss her herself?” Zhao Qifei was also anxious. Why was Shen Xun so protective of Su Jian Yue?

Su Jian Yue scratched the back of her neck. “I was originally thinking of drinking myself. It’s not that I have anything against Liang Wenjing, but I just feel that rashly kissing a girl would be offensive to her, so I definitely couldn’t do that.”

Hearing what Su Jian Yue said, Shen Xun nodded in agreement. See, her little puppy was still very sensible on this kind of issue.

“It’s not that serious, is it? It’s just a game. As long as you get the other person’s consent, you can do it,” Chen Zhibin said in his defense.

“That’s true. But if you can solve it by drinking, then you won’t offend the other person,” Su Jian Yue said, which was also the truth. They weren’t familiar with each other. To rashly kiss her, wouldn’t that be taking advantage of her?

The viewers in the live stream were also discussing it heatedly.

[Ahhh, Shen Xun is jealous. She won’t let Su Jian Yue kiss other omegas.]

[So good to ship. She even drank the wine for her.]

[Su Jian Yue is also so well-behaved. An alpha who respects omegas is the cutest.]

[That’s right. Our baby is the best cub.]

[But Liang Wenjing didn’t refuse either. My god, Liang Wenjing is really interested in Su Jian Yue too.]

[This romance variety show is so funny. The XunYue CP couple are both succubi. So many people like them.]

[I feel like that Chen Zhibin deliberately came up with this task. He and Zhao Qifei don’t look like good people.]

[Yes, yes, the two of them look fake and have a lot of bad intentions.]

“OK, continue, continue,” Mao Ning interrupted.

“Alright, now it’s my turn to spin,” Su Jian Yue said. The wine bottle in her hand continued to spin and stopped at Ren Peng.

“Which one do you want to choose?” Su Jian Yue asked.

“To be safe, I’ll choose truth,” Ren Peng said with a laugh. The dares were too exciting. He was afraid he couldn’t handle it.

“How many partners have you had before?” Su Jian Yue thought for a moment and asked. Directly asking who he liked among the people present seemed a bit simple. She might as well ask something more exciting.

“Hiss!” Ren Peng sucked in a breath of cold air. He cleared his throat and then said vaguely, “This… isn’t very easy to say, is it?”

He was a game streamer who relied on his looks. If he revealed on the show that he had had many exes, his fans wouldn’t be able to take it. But if he didn’t say it, and his ex-girlfriends came to expose him, then he would be finished.

“If you don’t want to say it, you can just drink,” Su Jian Yue said with a smile.

Ren Peng quickly chose to drink to get it over with.

Synopsis 1:

Su Jianyue had a beloved older sister, a name etched into her heart since childhood. Gradually, she realized her feelings for her sister had changed.

They lived in different cities, and throughout their growth, they rarely met in person. Yet, every text message her sister sent her on her phone was memorized by heart.

"Today is your third birthday. Happy birthday, hugs~"

"Little Moon, you're six this year. Happy birthday, be a good student in elementary school~"

"Happy twelfth birthday. Sister wishes you happiness every day and to grow up joyfully."

"Happy birthday, eighteen-year-old Little Moon."

(...)

Every year on her birthday, she would receive a text message blessing from her sister, a habit that had long become unforgettable.

It turns out that liking someone is a magical thing. Love slowly grows inadvertently, and by the time you realize it, it has already permeated your very bones.

Synopsis 2:

Everyone knew Shen Xun was Linhai University's untouchable ice queen. Without exception, anyone who dared to pursue her was half-frozen by her unapproachable aura.

When students in the department were bored, they would bet, claiming that no one in this world could ever win over their school's ice queen.

On their way to the cafeteria for food, a few people saw Shen Xun gently fastening the shirt buttons of a girl they had never seen before, her eyes soft. The few of them exchanged glances, their expressions as if they had seen a ghost.

Later, Shen Xun received an invitation to the dating variety show "Heartbeat Emergency." She refused it on the spot without even looking up: "Dating is a waste of time for me."

The next day, Shen Xun learned that Su Jianyue had accepted the show’s invitation and called back to change her mind: "Wasting a few days isn't a big deal. I'm afraid my sister will be led astray by you all."
