My Hubby Can't Stop Pampering Me-Chapter 848 - 850 Living Together (5)

Chapter 848: Chapter 850 Living Together (5)

Qin Zhigu simply couldn’t refuse others, and while he kept dodging, this group hadn’t yet entered society and hadn’t learned the multitude of persuasive drinking techniques. However, they just forced him and another person to drink non-stop. Qin Zhigu might have been evasive, but there were too many people insisting on him drinking, and even if he just took a sip from each toast, it still amounted to quite a lot.

Fortunately, Qin Zhigu could hold his liquor, so he managed to scramble through the situation. After a round of toasts, the teachers largely withdrew, and the dishes were cleared away. This place was a scenic area, and there weren’t many entertainment centers at night. Once the dishes were cleared, the restaurant, which was open-air, simply pulled up a screen to serve as an LED display. There was a small stage for singing, which essentially doubled as a private KTV room.

Qin Zhigu and Cai Yiren inevitably became the focus again, as the crowd urged them with laughter to take to the stage for a performance. They were given a choice between singing a love duet, eating an apple together, or having a cross-cupped wine, with the need to choose one of the three.

Qin Zhigu didn’t want to make any choice; he didn’t enjoy singing, and the apple thing seemed even triter. When they couldn’t persuade him, they turned to provoke Cai Yiren. As a girl, Cai Yiren was more easily embarrassed and, after a few “close girlfriends” convinced her, she found herself blushing and pulled onto the stage. Since she went up, Qin Zhigu, with nothing left to argue, was also pushed up by a few of his dorm mates.

But it was just the two of them on stage – how boring. The crowd started to heckle again. Anyone openly in a relationship within the institute was dragged out, making up five couples in total.

Everyone grabbed a glass and drank cross-cupped wine with their partner.

Lu Weixi sat at the very edge of the gathering. She hadn’t deliberately stayed put, but at that moment, both Xue Feifei and Lu’s mother had messaged her. Xue Feifei’s text was not bad, merely asking about her situation and sharing some complaints. The Xue Family and the Bai Family had always been close, and they had been classmates from childhood, and even roommates in the same dormitory at the university. But it wasn’t until the Xue Family’s downfall that Lu Weixi became close friends with her. After the Bai Family’s crisis, Xue Feifei became Lu Weixi’s only loyal ally, standing by her regardless of the rumors outside.

Her mother, on the other hand, was worried that she might not be having fun. So, Lu Weixi sat in the corner, raised her phone to record a video, and spoke with feigned ease, “It’s nice, everyone is making a fuss, I’m very happy—”

As she elongated her voice, it coincided with her capturing Qin Zhigu and Cai Yiren drinking cross-cupped wine in the video. The lens focused on the two, with Cai Yiren’s face slightly flushed from the alcohol earlier, looking tenderly at Qin Zhigu, seemingly a bit embarrassed. And Qin Zhigu, though frowning slightly, still bent down and drank the wine from the cups they held together without a word.

The audience erupted in cheers, and in that moment, Lu Weixi stopped recording, took a moment to calm her expression, and replied composedly, “It’s lively. I’m doing well.”

No sooner had she uttered “well” than the next event began. Although Qin Zhigu had only chosen the cross-cupped wine, he still “won” a part in the event of eating an apple together, and so did Lu Weixi. This truly wasn’t planned; the computer randomly selected the participants, and it just so happened to stop on her name.

The previously noisy scene suddenly fell silent.

What was this supposed to mean?

Two people, who had just broken up and already betrayed each other, were now expected to go on stage to perform an act of eating an apple together?
