After a Contractual Marriage, Little Taotie Went Viral!-Chapter 199 - 197: What Did He See?!
Originally, Yang Leqi was being watched by her agent to lose weight so she could look better on camera, controlling her diet and adding exercise.
However, the more she controlled it, the more she gained three pounds instead of losing, and by the time she was on camera, her face looked noticeably bigger. That’s when the agent realized she had been hiding a lot of snacks because she was too hungry at night. The result was, not only did the agent confiscate all her snacks, but she was also not allowed to have any snacks anymore.
To this day, she still hasn’t obtained the right to eat snacks without restrictions.
Yang Leqi, with tears in her eyes, looked at Sister Yun, "At times like this, I’m just envious of you, Sister Yun. Being able to eat without gaining weight is truly happiness!! You can eat whatever you want without worrying about a swollen face or gaining weight the next day."
"If I say that if I don’t work hard to make money, I might starve to death because of eating too much, will that make you feel a bit happier?" Qin Yun hesitated for a few seconds, trying to comfort her.
Yang Leqi burst into laughter, "Hmm, I feel comforted! But it’s okay, I have money, I won’t let you starve."
"This just shows how important exercise is!! Although I eat at night, if I run a few more laps the next day, I can burn off the calories and not gain weight." Wang Sirui seemed to have quite the insight on this.
"We’ve already bought the food and drunk the drinks, a little more alcohol wouldn’t hurt." Qin Yun said with a smile and a shake of her head.
"That’s true." Yang Leqi nodded, looking at the bone she just spat out.
Then, Chen Yao called the waiter to bring over a case of beer.
The group started off playing a crazy game of "Ten and a Half," where face cards count as half a point, and number cards have their respective points. If you ask for a card and it exceeds ten and a half, you bust and lose.
The closer to ten and a half or above, the better. If someone draws ten, they can choose to ask for another card. If the dealer gives a face card (J/Q/K), they win with ten and a half. If they draw a number card and it totals over ten and a half, they bust. They can also choose not to draw a card and compare totals. The highest number wins, and the loser drinks as a penalty.
After two hours, Wang Sirui had drunk four bottles by himself, which shows how badly he lost.
The other heavy drinker was Chen Yao, who only drank one less bottle than Wang Sirui but turned red in the face due to the alcohol.
In contrast, Pei Yan only drank two cups, that too with watered-down alcohol.
Qin Yun focused on eating and only drank when thirsty, but found the taste of the alcohol unpleasant—bitter and astringent. After one sip, she wrinkled her nose and didn’t want to drink anymore.
Pei Yan noticed her frowning after drinking and got up to replace it with fruit tea for her, whispering in her ear, "If you don’t like it, drink this."
Qin Yun took a sip and, finding it sweet, felt somewhat relieved. She took a few more sips to suppress the bitter taste in her mouth.
At this moment, Yang Leqi was laughing so hard on the sofa, holding her belly, "Wang Sirui, your luck is perfect for buying lottery tickets, buy a few more, help us eliminate some options, and we’ll just pick the numbers different from yours, our chances of winning would leap from one in a million to one in several thousand."
"Yang Leqi!! You’ve gone too far!!" Wang Sirui’s face was flushed with anger, yet what Yang Leqi said was indeed true.
Wang Sirui was the embodiment of "bad at games but loves to play, yet has bad luck."
Yep... that’s Wang Sirui alright.
"Could it be that over time, the idol magic has worn off?" Wang Sirui suddenly had a thought, casting his eyes towards Pei Yan, staring at his hands.
Pei Yan was wearing gloves, helping Qin Yun peel crayfish. Sensing the gaze, he lazily looked up, and Wang Sirui quickly shifted his gaze.
Darn!!
What did he just see!!
Yang Leqi followed his gaze and found Pei Yan leisurely peeling crayfish for Qin Yun, with a small pile already accumulated in front of him, and shrimp meat in a bowl, seemingly starting from the moment they had that little incident.
Yang Leqi’s eyes sparkled, reveling in the real-time couples moments; they were her CP paradise, always sweet and loving!
Qin Yun noticed the sudden silence, looked around slowly, and swallowed her food, "Keep playing, guys."
"Play, play, play." Wang Sirui nodded blankly.
"Sister Yun, don’t mind him, just keep eating." Yang Leqi was gleaming with excitement.
Qin Yun blinked her pretty eyes in confusion: "??"
What’s the big deal with eating?
"Ahem, Mr. Pei, can I shake hands with you again?" Wang Sirui, bracing himself, asked.
Pei Yan nonchalantly extended his hand, and Wang Sirui, not wanting to miss the chance, quickly wiped his sweaty palms on his clothes before clasping Pei Yan’s hand with both of his, his face flushed with excitement.
This was his golden ticket to reversing his bad luck!
Still a bit tipsy, Wang Sirui exclaimed, "Now! I don’t believe my luck is still that bad! Again!!"
Pei Yan and Qin Yun joined in, though they didn’t even bother holding cards themselves.
Qin Yun continued to eat, and Pei Yan kept peeling shrimp for her, until he filled a small bowl, placing it before her, coaxing, "Once you finish this, no more eating tonight." 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂
Qin Yun murmured, "Mhm."
Sure enough, after Wang Sirui lost another round, he barely managed normal luck by losing two more rounds, where the tables were turned on Chen Yao, who had to drink two bottles in succession, unable to continue.
He waved his hands non-stop, "No, no more, I can’t take it anymore."
Wang Sirui, having regained his form, laughed arrogantly, "Hahaha, I’m finally not unlucky anymore."
Yang Leqi rolled her beautiful eyes, "Still not lucky on your own, though."
"You’re just jealous I shook hands with Mr. Pei and you didn’t." Wang Sirui bobbed with drunken bravado, placing his hands on his hips.
"I want to sing, let you all experience what is called a heavenly voice." He wobbled to grab the microphone and queued a song.
No one could deny, Wang Sirui was quite a good singer, especially after a few drinks. He sang love songs with such charm that even Yang Leqi was mesmerized.
"Let’s go, it’s about time, or else the director will think the guests have all run away together by morning." Pei Yan stood up after Qin Yun finished eating and said.
"It’s ten o’clock, we should go. Qin Hao mentioned in a group chat around half-past nine that he arrived at the airport and is on his way." Yang Leqi took out her phone and said.
Pei Yan: "Just message him to go back to the hotel."
And just like that, the group ended their KTV outing and prepared to head back.
But as soon as they stepped out of the KTV, something happened.
