Chapter 62: Truth or Dare

"What's wrong?" Chi Jun'an asked indifferently.

"I..." Zhou Kainan was just about to say something when there was a sudden knock on the door. He let out a helpless sigh and got up to open the door.

"He thought you were joking when you said you were bringing your girlfriend here," An Ziyu whispered with a hint of schadenfreude. "So Kainan also invited Yang Wanrong."

"Why didn't you stop him?" Chi Jun'an asked calmly.

"Why should I stop him?" An Ziyu wore an expression of eagerly anticipating the drama.

Ji Xiaonuan was filled with surprise in her heart.

These mysterious words from the two of them clearly implied that the upcoming Yang Wanrong had an unusual relationship with Chi Jun'an.

The door opened, and a woman walked in.

Ji Xiaonuan curiously sized her up. She was very beautiful, and her makeup was exquisite, obviously the result of careful grooming. It seemed that she was Yang Wanrong. Just like her name, she exuded an air of gentleness and virtuousness.

Yang Wanrong greeted the people in the room with a polite smile.

"Brother Muchen," Yang Wanrong's eyes held a bit more intimacy as she looked at Chi Jun'an.

Ji Xiaonuan glanced at him and saw that Chi Jun'an had an indifferent expression and didn't look the least bit guilty. "I heard that you brought another woman here this time. Aren't you going to introduce her?" Yang Wanrong chuckled.

Another... Even though Ji Xiaonuan was a bit slow-witted, she could still understand the meaning behind Yang Wanrong's words.

"Wanrong, don't talk nonsense," Zhou Kainan seemed to be trying to make up for his previous mistake and quickly said, "This is really Muchen's girlfriend. Her name is Ji Xiaonuan. Sister-in-law, this is Yang Wanrong. We are good friends who grew up together."

"Oops, I'm really sorry," Yang Wanrong put on an act of having said the wrong thing and quickly said, "It's just that Brother Muchen has brought a lot of women here before and said they were his girlfriends. I thought he had changed partners again this time. But I think he must have been fooling us, his good friends, before. Xiaoxi, don't think too much about it."

The corners of Ji Xiaonuan's mouth twitched. It wasn't really about advising her not to think too much; it was clearly about making her think more.

Originally, she had no particular feelings for Yang Wanrong, but now her impression of her was extremely bad. Moreover, just thinking that Yang Wanrong might have had something with Chi Jun'an made Ji Xiaonuan feel a bit heartbroken.

"Alright, I won't think too much about it," Ji Xiaonuan smiled faintly. "I don't mind or care about Chi Jun'an's past. But don't worry, he won't change partners in the future because I will be the last one."

Yang Wanrong's face immediately turned a bit ugly, and a trace of imperceptible coldness flashed in her eyes. An Ziyu couldn't help laughing out loud, but then he looked at Ji Xiaonuan with a look of great grievance.

Chi Jun'an looked at her with a hint of surprise, seeing her innocent smile.

He hadn't had a chance to explain to her yet, and this little girl had actually taken the initiative to fight back. He smiled faintly and gently held her hand.

Ji Xiaonuan gave him a glare and suddenly squeezed his hand hard.

"Alright, alright. Everyone, have a seat," Zhou Kainan said quickly, sensing the awkward atmosphere.

"I didn't," Chi Jun'an whispered in Ji Xiaonuan's ear to explain.

"Didn't do what?" Ji Xiaonuan gritted her teeth.

"I didn't bring other women here," he said. "Trust me."

"Hehe," Ji Xiaonuan sneered.

"If you don't believe me, I'll kiss you," Chi Jun'an's eyes flashed.

"I believe you, I believe you," Ji Xiaonuan blushed shyly.

Everyone sat down, and the waiter started to serve the dishes. They chatted while eating.

Yang Wanrong chatted affectionately with everyone, and from time to time, she talked to Chi Jun'an about work matters or old memories.

Chi Jun'an responded occasionally, but most of the time, he kept picking up dishes for Ji Xiaonuan.

Ji Xiaonuan didn't interrupt. She focused on enjoying the delicious food on the table. It had to be said that they really knew how to enjoy life, and the food here was exceptionally delicious.

"Try this," Chi Jun'an placed a piece of tender fish in front of Ji Xiaonuan. The fish bones had already been carefully picked out. Then, he started peeling the shrimp.

Yang Wanrong watched Chi Jun'an's actions and clenched her chopsticks tightly with a hint of resentment.

The next moment, she asked with a gentle smile, "Why aren't you talking, Xiaoxi?"

Ji Xiaonuan quickly swallowed the food in her mouth, took a sip of water, and said, "You guys talk. I'm busy enjoying the delicious food."

A hint of anger appeared in Yang Wanrong's eyes, but the next moment, she said apologetically, "Oops, is it that you don't really understand what we're talking about and don't know what to say? I'm sorry. We are very close friends, and we usually chat like this. There's no other meaning."

Ji Xiaonuan suddenly realized that Yang Wanrong was reminding her that she was being isolated by them.

She looked up speechlessly. Why couldn't Yang Wanrong just leave her alone even during the meal?

Before, Ji Xiaonuan thought that Yang Wanrong's lack of courtesy towards her might have been her imagination, but now it seemed that Yang Wanrong was really targeting her.

Ji Xiaonuan didn't like to cause trouble, but she was never afraid of it either.

"You've misunderstood," Ji Xiaonuan said with a smile. "There's a rule in my family: don't talk while eating or sleeping. So I don't really like to talk during meals. It's quite impolite. Most importantly, if you chat while eating, how much delicious food will you miss out on!"

Yang Wanrong's face immediately turned ugly. Ji Xiaonuan had actually indirectly called her impolite?

"Brother Muchen, did I make Xiaoxi angry?" Yang Wanrong looked at Chi Jun'an with a wronged expression.

"You're overthinking it. Xiaoxi is straightforward and says what's on her mind. Moreover," Chi Jun'an said with a faint smile as he placed the peeled shrimp in Ji Xiaonuan's bowl. "What she said is quite right."

Yang Wanrong's face became even uglier. Chi Jun'an was actually completely on Ji Xiaonuan's side?

The other three were even less reliable. An Ziyu was obviously taking Ji Xiaonuan's side, Fu Chenghao didn't like to talk, and Zhou Kainan was too honest.

Suddenly, the whole private room fell silent, and everyone quietly ate their meals.

Yang Wanrong was extremely annoyed but helpless. She had originally intended to isolate Ji Xiaonuan, but instead, she had been isolated by Ji Xiaonuan.

Finally, after the meal, Yang Wanrong spoke up first, "We haven't gotten together for a long time, and we got to know Xiaoxi today. I think we should have some fun together as a celebration!"

Ji Xiaonuan felt helpless. What was Yang Wanrong up to this time? However, regardless of what she was planning, her proposal happened to be in line with the wishes of the others. The three of them cheered and agreed.

"Do you want to play?" Chi Jun'an looked at Ji Xiaonuan.

Ji Xiaonuan hesitated for a moment.

She could also see that Yang Wanrong had a rather close relationship with the others. She couldn't just reject their offer and spoil their fun just because she didn't like Yang Wanrong.

"What do we play?" Ji Xiaonuan asked.

"Truth or Dare," Yang Wanrong suggested.
