Chapter 527: Truth 6

"Hmm?" Ling Xuejiu was taken aback and then realized what was happening, already fuming mad. But after thinking it over, she couldn’t deny that it was she who had said that Leng Xuan couldn’t be mentioned. How could she be the first to break her own rule? Though she was reluctant, there was nothing she could do but say, "Fine, that question doesn’t count. I’ll ask another one."

"You’ve already broken the rule, so you have to give up your turn to ask a question," Li Mengjie, worried that Ling Xuejiu would come up with another question she couldn’t answer, started to play dirty.

Ling Xuejiu didn’t really mind and said, "Okay, I give up my turn. Your turn to ask."

"Mmm~!" Li Mengjie pretended to be in deep thought, then suddenly narrowed her eyes with a mischievous smile and said, "Mm-hmm, Xue Jiu, I’m starting to ask my question now!"

Ling Xuejiu was somewhat scared by Li Mengjie’s look but still braved herself and said, "Ask away."

Li Mengjie continued to smile naughtily and said, "Mmm~! Then I’m asking now."

"Why are you spouting so much nonsense? If you’re not going to ask, forget it, I’m going to sleep." Ling Xuejiu inexplicably felt a bit guilty, really worried that Xiao Jie, this little devil, would ask a question she couldn’t answer and then force her to confess to Leng Xuan. Seeing Li Mengjie deliberately playing coy, she decided to seize the opportunity to get out of the game and go to sleep instead.

"Hee hee, I’m asking, I’m asking," Li Mengjie initially wanted to create a tense atmosphere, then catch Xue Jiu off guard with a sudden question. However, seeing Ling Xuejiu ready to go to sleep, she hurriedly asked, "Xue Jiu, do you like the Cold Bodyguard?"

"What?" Ling Xuejiu was startled but quickly caught on and said angrily, "What the hell, you brat, didn’t we agree not to mention Leng Xuan? Why are you bringing him up again? Humph, since my earlier question was invalidated because I mentioned him, your question is void too. I’m not playing anymore, I’m going to sleep!"

"Xue Jiu, you’re such a sore loser!" Li Mengjie wouldn’t accept that, snorting, "I didn’t break any rules!"

"When did I act like a sore loser?" Ling Xuejiu was so irritated she was itching to retaliate, "You’re the sore loser here."

"Not me!" Li Mengjie, looking like her sneaky plan succeeded, giggled and said, "You said we couldn’t mention Leng Xuan, right?"

Ling Xuejiu thought to herself, this wretched girl knows exactly what she’s doing. Still, she kept her temper in check and replied, "Yeah, right! But why bring him up again?"

"Mmm~!" Li Mengjie said with a teasing smile, "I didn’t. I only asked if you like the Cold Bodyguard. I didn’t ask if you like Leng Xuan. Xue Jiu, could you have misheard? Hee hee!"

"Hmm?" Upon hearing this, Ling Xuejiu immediately realized that she had fallen into Xiao Jie’s trap. Indeed, Xiao Jie hadn’t mentioned Leng Xuan, only the Cold Bodyguard. Even though it meant the same thing, it technically didn’t break the rule. Realizing this, Ling Xuejiu was both angry and annoyed, grumbling, "Isn’t that the same thing? Hmph!"

"Not the same, definitely not the same," Li Mengjie playfully blinked and said, "Xue Jiu, if you want to be a sore loser, just say it. I can’t really do anything to you anyway. The most that will happen is I won’t believe what you say any longer because you will have lost your credibility."

"..." Ling Xuejiu was so furious she rolled her eyes, but since she was little, she hadn’t ever cheated while playing Truth with Li Mengjie, so it wouldn’t be right to start now. But Xiao Jie’s question was definitely embarrassing; how could she even answer it?
