"Wow, Su Bai, our handsome guy, finally came downstairs!"

"Hurry, hurry, our Xiao Ya beauty wants to hear you sing!"

As soon as Su Bai reached the basement level, Yang Beibei called out, urging him to sing.

Tong Xiaoya blushed slightly and retorted, "What are you talking about? You want to hear him sing, don't drag me into it!"

Yang Beibei teased, "Oh my, our Xiao Ya is getting shy!"

"Su Bai, come on, sing 'Goddess Maiden' and win over our Xiao Ya!"

Looking at Tong Xiaoya's expression, Su Bai could tell she was used to this kind of banter. No matter what others said, she might respond with a few words, but never got angry. Even if she felt hurt, she would never say so, always leaving a strong impression online.

Now, since it was their first meeting and no one really knew each other, Su Bai thought that if he followed Beibei's suggestion and sang right away, it might make Xiao Ya uncomfortable.

He grinned and asked, "I haven't even sat down yet, am I supposed to start singing?"

"Shouldn't I have a drink first to moisten my throat before singing?"

Yang Xiaomi chimed in, "No rush, let's get to know each other first!"

"The old rule? Dice and Truth or Dare. A few rounds and we'll all be familiar."

No sooner had Xiaomi spoken than Beibei and Tang Yuyan's eyes lit up in enthusiastic agreement.

Beibei was always up for any game, as long as it was fun. Tang Yuyan, on the other hand, gave Xiaomi and Su Bai a mischievous look, as if she had plenty of questions ready.

Tong Xiaoya and Liu Yishi stayed silent, apparently agreeing by default.

Beibei went first, clearly an experienced hand at dice games, skillfully rolling the dice in her palm before revealing: six!

She laughed, "Hehe, looks like I'm just here to watch the show tonight!"

Yang Xiaomi was next, her movements fluid and fierce, and when she checked: one!

"Ha! Sister Mi, are you ready for the sisters' barrage?"

Tang Yuyan rolled three, Liu Yishi two, narrowly beating Xiaomi.

Tong Xiaoya rolled six as well, and Su Bai got five.

Everyone looked at Xiaomi with ill-intent, especially Tang Yuyan, whose gaze was full of teasing. "Truth or dare?"

Yang Xiaomi replied timidly, "Can I just drink a glass as punishment?"

Before anyone could respond, Tang Yuyan cut in, "No way! Absolutely not! You have to pick one!"

Xiaomi seemed to realize what Yuyan was about to ask, glared at her in warning, as if telling her not to say anything outrageous.

But Tang Yuyan ignored her and kept smiling sweetly at Xiaomi.

Resigned, Xiaomi said, "Fine, I'll choose truth."

Beibei jumped in, "Let me ask, let me ask! I still haven't gotten revenge for last time, this one's mine!"

Normally, everyone would give Beibei the chance, but tonight Tang Yuyan was prepared and didn't want to wait.

"Beibei, it's my turn, and my question will be even spicier!"

Beibei scoffed, "Please, do I not know you? I don't want to hear anything about love and romance!"

"Nor do I care about career directions—honestly, who asks about future career moves during Truth or Dare? How lame!"

"Is that even a personal question?"

After Beibei spoke, the crowd burst into laughter, then all glanced at Tong Xiaoya, who pouted and turned her head away, deciding to ignore Beibei. She looked utterly adorable.

Tang Yuyan cleared her throat dramatically, "Ahem, if you don't like my question, I'll drink as punishment, how about that?"

Beibei, seeing Yuyan so confident, said, "Oh, so sure, fine, I'll let you ask!"

Tang Yuyan, like a victorious general, looked at Xiaomi with pride.

"Hehehe, Sister Mi, are you ready?"

Yang Xiaomi glared at Yuyan, as if threatening her.

Tang Yuyan surveyed the group, "Ladies, if things get ugly, you better protect me. I'm just trying to satisfy your curiosity!"

Everyone looked at Tang Yuyan and Yang Xiaomi in shock. Judging by their reactions, the question must be explosive—otherwise Xiaomi wouldn't react so strongly.

Usually, Xiaomi was pretty wild, always up for anything. Why such a big reaction now?

Even Beibei's interest was piqued.

She urged impatiently, "Hurry up and ask, what's with all the suspense?"

Tang Yuyan smiled, "Sister Mi, are Su Bai's lips soft?"

"What?!"

"What's going on?"

"When did this happen?"

Yang Beibei jumped off the sofa in excitement, and even Tong Xiaoya and Liu Yishi stared at Xiaomi in disbelief.

Just a few days ago, when they were hanging out, they'd discussed Su Bai, the viral sensation online, and his songs. Everyone had said no one knew him personally.

So, even if Xiaomi knew Su Bai, it must have been only recently—or perhaps today.

Met him today, and already kissed? And Tang Yuyan even found out?

Yang Xiaomi's face flushed, a rare sight. She glanced at Su Bai, embarrassed, only to see him sitting calmly, unruffled.

Xiaomi was speechless inside, as if to say: Wasn't it you I kissed?

"Wait, Yuyan, how did you know?"

Everyone was curious and looked at Tang Yuyan.

She smiled, "Shouldn't we wait for Xiaomi to answer first, then I'll satisfy your curiosity?"

Everyone turned their gaze to Xiaomi and Su Bai.

"Well, it's like this. I've been preparing for the sci-fi film 'Science Fiction World' lately, and wanted to shoot a promo—"

Tang Yuyan interrupted, "We don't care, we don't care. We just want a simple answer: yes or no, soft or not soft!"

Xiaomi's face grew hot. She lifted her glass, drained it, and said, "Soft."

Wow!

Wow! Wow!

The women erupted in cheers.

Beibei asked, "How soft?"

"What about the technique? Tell us about it, hurry!"

Yang Xiaomi scowled, "That's the second question!"

Beibei sneered, "Bah, I wasn’t going to ask anyway. Next, everyone focus on Su Bai. Let's hear the real deal!"

"See if Sister Mi's kissing skills are still as good as before!"

A chorus of coughs swept the group.

Then the second round began.

Originally, everyone hoped Su Bai would lose.

But as luck would have it, the loser was Tang Yuyan!

She swore, "Damn, why me?"

"Karma, so soon?"

Only Xiaomi seemed excited, looking at Yuyan as if ready to get revenge.

The others weren't as interested; perhaps they'd already figured out most of Yuyan's secrets.

Xiaomi grinned at Su Bai.

"Su Bai, why don't you ask the question this time?"

Me?

Su Bai pointed at himself in surprise, wondering how he could ask—none of the questions seemed appropriate.
