Heartwarming Aristocratic Marriage: Influential Master's Wife-Chasing Strategy Novel - Chapter 686

Chapter 686: Langlang’s Confession Is Rejected, Sixth Master Asks for a Hug

Before Song Fengwan and Xu Yuanfei left, they specially checked the cake. It was a little damaged, so when they returned to the store, Xu Yuanfei made a new one for her, the kind with a 3D pattern.

When the two of them arrived at the private room, everyone was here except Duan Linbai.

Yu Manxi’s stomach was already showing. She hadn’t gained much weight during her pregnancy. From the back, people couldn’t tell that she was pregnant at all, but her face was much rounder than before.

Song Fengwan was a little surprised to actually find two large packets of spicy chips in her bag. Was it okay for a pregnant woman to eat such heavy food?

“Why isn’t Linbai here yet?” Fu Sinian asked. It was already time for lunch, and he was worried about his wife starving.

“He said he was in a meeting and is on his way,” Fu Chen explained.

“He’s really serious about making money.” Yu Manxi smiled.

Although Duan Linbai was unrestrained, he earned money seriously every day.

“He’s working so hard. He doesn’t have time to fall in love at all, right?”

“Love isn’t as interesting as making money.” As soon as Yu Manxi finished speaking, Duan Linbai pushed the door open and entered. He even brought Song Fengwan a bouquet of flowers. “Do you know how much money I can make in a minute? The fact that I’m willing to come out for a gathering means that I really love you.

…

“Oh, Miss Xu is here again.”

Duan Linbai’s words successfully made Xu Yuanfei blush.

She originally thought that there might be more than ten people having a meal on Song Fengwan’s birthday. She didn’t expect it to be just a few people in a small circle. This kind of gathering seemed too private.

“Sit.” Jing Hanchuan called everyone to sit.

Naturally, the two of them were put together again.

Song Fengwan kept feeling that the boy who had come to deal with the accident just now looked familiar, as if she had seen him somewhere before, but she couldn’t remember where. Coupled with what Xu Yuanfei had said, she kept feeling that she was hiding some secret.

Fu Chen already knew about the collision. But the Xu family had already intervened at the time, so there was no need for him to interfere.

“Third Brother…”

“Huh?” Fu Chen bent down and moved closer to her.

“Do you know Big Sister Xu’s background?”

Fu Chen smiled, dipped his fingers in water, and wrote ‘Nan’ on the table. His handwriting was still thin and beautiful.

Song Fengwan’s pupils trembled as she looked at Fu Chen. “Did you make a mistake? He doesn’t know yet?”

“What do you think?” Fu Chen smiled faintly.

Song Fengwan was halfway through her meal when she suddenly remembered where she had seen Xu Yao before…

Isn’t he the young man sitting at the same table as the big shot of the Jing family at Fu Sinian’s wedding?

“Are you messing with Sixth Master? What if something happens?” Song Fengwan lowered her head and chewed on the vegetable leaves.

“Life is very boring. It just adds some fun.” Fu Chen smiled deeply.

***

Fu Chen and Song Fengwan would leave for another city in the evening. It was rare for them to get together, but they were all people who didn’t like to talk, so it would be boring if all they did was chat.

Duan Linbai suggested playing a few rounds of Truth or Dare.

They played a number guessing game to decide who went first. It was nothing more than one of them writing down a number below 100 and hiding it. As everyone said a number, the range gradually narrowed down to see who could say the specified number in the end.

Duan Linbai was the most familiar with the rules, so he set the questions and actions for a few rounds.

Because they knew a certain someone’s personality, everyone chose dare. Truth was too risky. In the first few rounds, everyone was still more reserved. Even for dare, the most extreme was to get Fu Sinian and Yu Manxi to kiss in public.

Finally, it was Duan Linbai’s turn, and the person who set the topic was Jing Hanchuan.

“Ahem, I choose dare too.” They were too familiar with each other. If it was truth, it would be too easy for Jing Hanchuan to trick him.

“Give me your phone.” Jing Hanchuan reached out his hand.

Duan Linbai unlocked his phone and passed it over. “Hanchuan, we’re brothers. Please show mercy.”

“Actually, my dare is very simple. I’ll randomly find a contact on your phone, and you have to confess to them and say that you love them.”

“That’s easy.” Duan Linbai was eager to try.

But when Jing Hanchuan passed the phone over, he was dumbfounded.

[Blasted Woman]

Isn’t this f*cking Xu Jiamu?!

“Hanchuan, how can you play like this?”

“If you admit defeat, we can change it to truth.” Jing Hanchuan smiled.

“But she’s blocked me.”

“Use mine.” Fu Sinian handed his phone over.

F*ck… Duan Linbai cursed in his heart. You can’t play like this.

“You’re really cowardly. If you don’t dare to play, just give up.” Jing Hanchuan continued to goad him.

“Who said I don’t dare? Fine!” Duan Linbai immediately took Fu Sinian’s phone and dialed a number.

Xu Jiamu was currently writing her dissertation in the library. When she saw the unknown number, she hesitated for a moment before walking out to the corridor with her phone. “Hello.”

At this moment, the phone in the private room was on speakerphone. Everyone held their breaths as they listened to a gentle female voice.

“Ahem, umm… It’s me.” Duan Linbai rubbed the cup in his hand and actually started to feel inexplicably nervous. His voice was deeper than usual.

Xu Jiamu glanced at the phone number again. “Who are you?”

Song Fengwan almost laughed out loud.

“I am Duan Linbai.”

“Young Master Duan?” Xu Jiamu frowned. What does this disaster want now? “What’s the matter?”

Jing Hanchuan tapped his fingers on the table slightly, signaling him to get to the point.

Duan Linbai gritted his teeth and made up his mind. I’m going to die anyway. I can’t let them look down on me. “I love you!”

“What did you say?” Xu Jiamu thought her ears were ringing.

“I said I love you!”

“Is your brain damaged?”

“Pfft—” Song Fengwan really couldn’t help it. “Sorry.”

Hearing the laughter, Xu Jiamu guessed a little of what was going on. “Are you guys playing a game?”

“Yes.” Duan Linbai’s face turned green. F*ck, I confessed to you, but you said that my brain was damaged!

“We’re playing Truth or Dare, and it happened to be my turn,” Duan Linbai explained to her.

“Then you’re quite unlucky.”

Duan Linbai vomited blood. Can this woman talk less? “By the way, I saw you at the bus stop last time. You actually rode a small electric scooter and ran away from me?”

“Sorry, I might not have noticed.”

“You didn’t see me?”

“Perhaps there were too many people at the bus stop, so I didn’t notice. Sorry, I still have to study. I’m hanging up now.”

After Xu Jiamu finished speaking, she mercilessly hung up. Almost everyone in the room laughed out loud.

She said she didn’t notice Duan Linbai? How could he not be eye-catching? He was always the fairest-skinned one in a crowd!

This girl is clearly lying through her teeth. Duan Linbai felt really embarrassed this time.

Duan Linbai gritted his teeth. I was the only one at the bus stop at the time, yet you actually spouted nonsense to me. Xu Jiamu, I’m not done with you.

But after this round ended, Duan Linbai was the topic setter, and this time, Jing Hanchuan fell into his hands.

A certain someone rubbed his palms together. “Hehe, Hanhan, what’s the saying? What goes around comes around!”

Jing Hanchuan sat in his seat, unmoved by the wind and rain.

“Truth or dare?”

“Dare.” Jing Hanchuan didn’t hesitate.

Duan Linbai looked around the private room. “How about this? You choose someone of the opposite gender present and hug them for a minute. Little Sixth Jing, we’re brothers. Look at how well I treat you. I’m helping you get benefits.”

The opposite gender present?

Song Fengwan, Yu Manxi, and Xu Yuanfei.

The first two were his sisters-in-law. Hugging his sister-in-law? The two from the Fu family were full of tricks. Who knew how they would stab him in the back. Thus, there was only…

When Xu Yuanfei heard that Jing Hanchuan wanted dare, she was very excited. Perhaps she could see a different side of him. But before she could react, everyone’s eyes were on her.

She looked around. “Why-why is everyone…”

“If you admit defeat and don’t want to play, you can choose truth.” Duan Linbai was prepared to take revenge anyway. No matter what, he had to trick Jing Hanchuan today.

Jing Hanchuan suddenly turned his head to look at Xu Yuanfei. The two of them were already close to each other. At this close distance, when he suddenly moved closer, their arms touched lightly. At this time, they were still wearing short-sleeved shirts, and their skin rubbed against each other gently…

It was as if there was an electric current flowing from their arms, making their hearts palpitate with joy.

“Miss Xu.” His voice was very close, and even his breath brushed against her ears, hitting them again and again.

“Hmm?”

Jing Hanchuan leaned closer and asked softly, “Can I?”

Xu Yuanfei didn’t react for a moment and exclaimed in surprise.

He seemed to lean even closer. She could even feel his breath. This distance…

Too close!

He was so close that it made her feel pressured.

“I want to hug you. Can I?”

Everyone was playing the game. It seemed that if she rejected him now, Jing Hanchuan would be very embarrassed. Xu Yuanfei also wanted to get close to him. She clenched her fists. Her heart pounding wildly, she nodded slightly…

Duan Linbai thought that Jing Hanchuan would be reserved, but he didn’t expect him to be so simple and crude.

If you want to talk, just talk. Why are you so close?

Don’t use a honey trap!

Your face is so close to hers. Why don’t you just kiss her directly?
