Chapter 445: Chapter 445: Roulette Blind Date

The circle of staff didn’t dare to make a sound, looking at Xie Qingci’s cold face, then looking silently at Yu Xia.

When the red colorful note unfolded, there were only three words inside.

After Xie Qingci looked at it, his brows relaxed, and his mood improved instantly.

Yu Xia pushed his bowl: "You haven’t finished eating, hurry up and eat."

It was as if the three letters that were torn earlier never appeared, and they only received the colorful notes that they wrote to each other.

Except for the person who wrote the letters, no one knew who sent the other three to them.

Everyone exchanged glances, sending imaginary bullet comments in their minds trying to express their views in sync with the audience witnessing this scene.

[In the last second: Aww, brother is so clingy, like a big puppy. Next second: Damn, he just tore up Yu Xia’s letter with that cold face?!]

[So is Xie Qingci supposed to be the jealous overlord character?]

[I thought they were going to argue too, tearing it up without even asking]

[Is Yu Xia too lazy to argue or gently indulging? I can’t understand, isn’t Yu Xia supposed to be more dominant? Who spread the false gossip?]

[Oh my god, everyone received two or more letters, so exciting]

[I don’t care, you two hurry and kiss again, or I’m going to fall on the ground and throw a tantrum]

After breakfast, the staff informed them to go out for group games.

Having just gone through the letter incident, there was quite a spectacle to watch.

Outside the big house, they saw Zhou Yu and Liu Yicheng talking at the door.

Their expressions were tense, and Zhou Yu spread out his hands asking Liu Yicheng for a letter.

"Let me see the letter, why don’t you dare let me see it?"

Liu Yicheng, annoyed, turned his head away, not wanting to look at her.

Pretending not to hear, they walked up and greeted them, then entered the courtyard.

The atmosphere in the courtyard was peculiar too, Qian Ling and Ling Yan had cold faces, each minding their own business without acknowledging each other.

Lin Shuangyin and Mo Yunchu were still okay, just showing a complicated expression when glancing at a certain person.

Zheng Jinjin was talking with Lan Hui, one with a pure student style, the other with a cute round face, standing together was quite pleasing to the eye.

It felt like a lot of "deadly things" had happened overnight, the "culprit" was among this group.

The director ignored everyone’s expressions, suppressing the tense atmosphere, and started talking about today’s group game.

"In addition to daily life, to increase everyone’s affection, we also want to play a small game.

Since we didn’t expect everyone to reach ’everyone received two letters’ achievement on the first day, today’s small game is going to be quite big, the game is called - Speed Dating Roulette."

As soon as the director finished speaking, Zhou Yu asked: "If you want to know exactly who wrote the letters, can you ask privately?"

Liu Yicheng frowned, his voice tense: "Isn’t it said to be anonymous?"

"Then give me the letters, I’ll ask each one, I’ll eventually find out who wrote them."

The two wouldn’t budge, the atmosphere between them was like an overstretched bow chord, not knowing when it might snap suddenly.

In this atmosphere, everyone stayed silent, just curiously watching them.

Liu Yicheng took two deep breaths, barely holding back his anger, just about to speak when Zheng Jinjin suddenly raised her hand.

"Uh, Liu, how many letters did you receive? Besides the one from Zhou Yu."

Liu Yicheng still had that frowning expression, saying: "One."

"Oh, then it should be from me."

Hmm???

Everyone turned to look at her, Zhou Yu’s face was even darker.

Zheng Jinjin smiled awkwardly: "Since it’s the first day, I wanted to express my feelings about meeting everyone, so I wrote a letter to each person. But don’t misunderstand, what I wrote was just a greeting, introducing myself, and my first impression of everyone."

Hearing her words, quite a few people sighed in relief.

Yu Xia turned to look at Xie Qingci.

The second letter he received should be from Zheng Jinjin, but without reading it, he tore it up, so there’s no way to verify how true Zheng Jinjin’s words are.

Xie Qingci showed no change in expression, but seeing her look over proactively, he seized the opportunity and put his hand on her waist, holding her as he asked: "What?"

"... Nothing, move over a bit."

"I won’t."

The focus wasn’t on them, she didn’t force him to behave, and continued watching the lively center.

After Zheng Jinjin finished speaking, Zhou Yu turned the question back to Liu Yicheng.

"Since it was just a simple greeting, why not let me see it?"

Liu Yicheng’s entire body spelled impatience, and he let out a faint cold laugh.

"I’m afraid you’ll go and cause trouble for someone, they give a courteous greeting, and if you feel something’s wrong and go ask them more questions, how would they feel?"

Yu Xia rolled her eyes upon hearing this.

He can consider others’ feelings, how come he doesn’t consider how his girlfriend feels?

She didn’t want to listen any further, interrupted them, and asked the director: "When does the game start? Will it involve living benefits or something?"

The director, gratified, looked at her, estimating it was to thank her for pulling everyone out of that couple’s messy affair, responded in a voice so gentle it could drip water.

"We can start right away, it’s just to enhance everyone’s understanding of each other, for entertainment only, it won’t affect anything else."

Saying this, he led them to another place.

It was two uniquely furnished rooms, with a big roulette in the center, holding six chairs facing outwards, and the wall connecting the rooms had three windows, through which the roulette randomly paired the men and women on both sides.

"This speed dating is about introducing yourself in a dating setting, then asking about others’ conditions, and after understanding, evaluate as ’interested’ or ’needs improvement’. Each talk lasts five minutes, and the roulette spins six times."

This was the women’s room, Xie Qingci and the others needed to go to the room next door. Before leaving, he pinched her hand, and at the door, he turned back and stared at her for two seconds.

As if very worried about her.

She wouldn’t mess around, Yu Xia pouted, sat in one of the chairs on the roulette according to the rules, with Lan Hui to her right, and Zhou Yu to her left, then the staff brought interference headphones.

Once she put on the headphones, the dj music inside was so loud it felt like being in a disco, unable to hear any outside sound.

However, when the roulette spun, Lin Shuangyin’s scared scream could still be heard because her dolphin sound was indeed quite high.

As the roulette spun, making them dizzy, it slowly stopped, and Yu Xia happened to face the window on the far left.

Coincidentally, opposite was Liu Yicheng.

Zhou Yu sat right next to her, facing the wall, and also saw Liu Yicheng opposite Yu Xia when looking sideways.

What’s this called? This is called "dating another woman right in front of his girlfriend"?

Yu Xia took off her headphones, nodded in greeting to Liu Yicheng, looking past him, peering at Xie Qingci who was facing the window but had turned his eyes, staring directly at her.

Being looked at a few extra times, she felt an inexplicable absurd feeling of having an affair, despite being straightforward and aboveboard.
