Xinwan reached out to snatch the phone, but because of her injury, her movements were clumsy. Her face was a little tense, but she couldn't lose her temper. She could only say, "Um, can you change your excuse? You know that I hate him. Isn't this a little inappropriate? "
"This is exactly what I want. Otherwise, how can it be called dare?"
Xinwan was speechless. She couldn't help but put her hand to her forehead. But what made her even more frightened was that someone had already helped her call Wen Han-woo. Her face instantly turned ashen. Once again, she felt that she had made a big mistake by coming to this birthday party tonight!
She really should have stayed at home obediently, accompanied her son, and watched cartoons. Why did she have to think about expanding her social circle?
This time, she had really poked a hornet's nest!
However, Xinwan was clearly still making her final struggle. She silently prayed that Wen Han-woo wouldn't pick up the call.
But God was very cruel. Not only did he not listen to her prayers, but he also picked up the call after less than two rings.
They had pressed the speakerphone, so everyone in the room could hear a deep male voice coming from the other end of the phone. "Hello."
Xinwan felt her heart suddenly beat faster. Her face flushed red under the dim yellow light.
Among the people here, Xiao Youran was naturally the closest to Wen Han-woo. She was one step ahead of everyone else. She immediately cleared her throat and said, "Young Master Wen, Xinwan said that she has something to say to you. Wait a moment. Don't hang up."
As she spoke, she leaned over and took the phone from the person across from her. Then she turned off the speakerphone and covered the phone's receiver. She said to everyone, "Let Wanwan speak. Don't make a sound. You can only speak after you're done, okay?"
Everyone excitedly made an "OK" hand sign.
Xiao Youran covered her mouth and stuffed the phone into Xinwan's hand. She signaled with her eyes: Little girl, you've lost the bet. Hurry up and speak!
Xinwan had never thought that she would be in such a situation one day.
Actually, it wasn't just awkward. It wasn't difficult for her to say the words "I love you". Even if it was anyone in her contact list, if they asked her to say "I love you" now, she felt that she could say it out loud. Later on, she just needed to explain that this was just a game, and that it was just Truth or Dare. Even if it was Qin Fangang, she wouldn't feel like this. She really felt like there was a knife to her neck.
She didn't know why, but she felt that if she said "I love you" to Wen Han-woo at this moment, she would never be able to take it back.
Just like what they had experienced together, the ambiguity he had given her, and the affirmation he had given her, she knew very well that she was just pitifully guarding her last line of defense. But at this moment, if she really broke through, then there would be no possibility of taking it back.
She was not the kind of person to shrink back, but when it came to love, she was not afraid of it.
Being from a single-parent family and having a complicated relationship with her parents, she had always had a line of defense in her heart since she was young.
And Wen Han-woo, in her heart, seemed to always be a "hedonistic young master" or a "playboy." He wasn't the person she wanted to be with, but she didn't know when her heart started to sing a different tune.
At this moment, being forced to play this game of "Truth or Dare," the 29-year-old Xinwan suddenly felt that there were too many things in life that were really destined.
It was as if she was trapped in a spider's web. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't break free.
"Wanwan."
Xiao Youran saw that she was holding the phone with a flushed face, but she didn't say anything. Everyone in the room was waiting for her to say those three words. She lowered her voice and urged her, "Hurry up, hurry up. We're waiting!"
Xinwan knew that she couldn't escape. With so many pairs of eyes staring at her, it was as if they were staring at the "new big Wen." No matter how unwilling she was, she still obediently picked up the phone and held it to her ear. Her breathing was a little erratic. She thought about it over and over again, but she couldn't say those three simple words. In the end, she held it in for a long time and squeezed out one word, but it was —
"Hello."
After dilly-dallying for so long, Wen Han-woo still hadn't hung up. When he heard her voice, he seemed a little surprised and asked her, "What's the matter?"
Xinwan replied, "Yeah, there's something."
"Where are you?" he asked again.
Xinwan didn't know how to answer, but some things couldn't be said carelessly. Moreover, the burning gazes in front of her made her feel like she was going to be skinned alive. Xinwan was really complaining in her heart. Since she was going to "die" anyway, she might as well be straightforward.
Without giving herself any chance to hesitate, Xinwan opened her mouth and said, "I love you."
There was suddenly no sound from the other end of the line. Was it because she was too nervous at that moment? Was that why she didn't even dare to breathe? It was as if there was no breath on the other end.
In less than two seconds, Xinwan quickly regained her senses and reached out to end the call.
Then, everyone in the room started clapping and shouting, "Good, good, good! Classmate Tong's opening is good. Let's continue, let's continue … "
After that, they played a few more rounds. The funny thing was, Xinwan wasn't picked again.
When it ended, Xinwan really felt like it was "destined".
They played until it was almost 11 o 'clock before everyone was ready to go home. They exchanged phone numbers and said that they would keep in touch in the future.
Xiao Youran naturally left with Xinwan, but Wang Ming didn't seem to plan to leave early. He followed the two women out of the hotel and said, "Beauties, it's already very late. Why don't you let me be Tchaikovsky and send you home?"
Xinwan was about to say "no need" when Xiao Youran nodded. "Alright then, Class Rep Wang, you can send me home. As for Wanwan, you don't have to go through so much trouble. She's going in a different direction from me."
Wang Ming's expression changed slightly, but he still replied naturally, "That's fine. Anyway, City B is only so big. My car has a GPS. Just give me an address and I'll be able to find it."
"Someone will come to pick her up." Xiao Youran stepped forward unceremoniously and pushed Wang Ming. "I'm so sleepy. Class Rep Wang, send me back first."
Wang Ming still wanted to say something, but Xiao Youran pushed him hard toward the car. She had already seen a black car parked not far away.
The color of the car was very familiar. She felt that she should not be mistaken. At this moment, she had not gotten into the car yet, but there was indeed someone who pushed open the car door and got out. That tall and straight man, who else could it be other than Wen Hanyu?
Tonight, she was considered a "hero". It wasn't easy to make Wanwan say those three words.
Hehe, Young Master Wen, I'll ask you for a "reward" next time. "
"Xiao, Xiao Youran, it's so late. Let's leave Xinwan alone."
"Aiya, what alone? Her husband is here to pick her up! "
Wang Ming was shocked. Following Xiao Youran's finger, he indeed saw the man not far away walking towards them. At this moment, there was no expression on his face. The look of disappointment that he had been suppressing between his brows was that of disappointment.
"Xinwan, she has a husband?"
Xiao Youran had an "I know you very well" expression. She patted Wang Ming's shoulder and said, "Class Rep Wang, you weren't in City B before, so I was too embarrassed to tell you. Actually, Wanwan has been married for six years and has a five-year-old son. So don't be a busybody. I'll introduce you to some girls later. Let's go!"
In fact, Xinwan had heard Xiao Youran and Wang Ming's conversation. When Wen Han-woo got out of the car, she saw him. Thus, her mind started to blank out bit by bit. She couldn't think about anything else and just stared unblinkingly at the man walking toward her.
How did he know that she was here?
Was it a coincidence, or was it because before Xinwan had completely recovered, Wen Han-woo was already standing in front of her? The man was only wearing a light blue striped shirt. In the night, his eyes were burning. Because of his height, he looked at Xinwan from above, but there was no sharpness in his gaze. Xinwan didn't dare to look at him. She still felt that the top of her head was burning, as if it could burn up.
The two were speechless for a while. In the end, Wen Han-woo suddenly reached out and grabbed her wrist. However, he didn't lead her to the car. Instead, he led her back into the hotel.
Xinwan only reacted after two steps. She opened her mouth to speak, but Wen Han-woo suddenly reached out and made a "shh" gesture, indicating that she shouldn't speak.
Xin Wan thought that she was really poisoned. She could only hear the sound of her heartbeat, 'thump, thump, thump, thump'. It was especially fast and strong. It was beating intensely in her chest. She really didn't dare to make a sound. She was afraid that if she opened her mouth, it would jump out from her throat. Hence, when he told her not to open her mouth, she actually obediently shut her mouth. She just lowered her eyelids and let him hold her hand.
When they got the room card at the front desk, she seemed to be unaware.
When they entered the elevator, she still didn't know.
It wasn't until they got out of the elevator and came to the door of the room that Xinwan came back to her senses. She suddenly realized something and flung Wen Han-woo's hand away. "You, what are you doing? I'm ready to go home. "
As she spoke, she turned around and tried to stumble toward the elevator. He took two steps forward and easily grabbed her wrist. He took advantage of the opportunity to pull her. He controlled his strength and wrapped his arm around her slender waist, pulling her into his embrace.
However, he still accidentally touched her wound. Xinwan yelped in surprise. Wen Han-woo quickly let go of one hand. He frowned and asked in a low voice, "Did I hurt you? Be good. Don't worry. I won't do anything to a disabled person like you. But shouldn't we find a place to sit down and have a good talk? "
Have a good talk?
Xinwan's head buzzed. Her worst fears had come true. She knew that he wouldn't pretend that he hadn't heard anything. She wasn't stupid. Naturally, she knew what they wanted to talk about.
