The School Beauty from the Next Class Insisted I Confess - Chapter 45
After hearing Liang Hao’s words clearly, Kong Qiaofeng gave a captivating smile and looked up at Liang Hao.
“Fine, I’ll satisfy you.” The silver-haired girl’s eyes darted around, making Liang Hao unable to look away. An indescribable ambiguity was brewing between them.
“Hey, why are you two walking so slowly? I’m telling you, Jiji Cheng hotpot is delicious.”
Gao Zhi turned around and called out to them. The two were startled, and Kong Qiaofeng was the first to shake off Liang Hao’s hand.
“Mind your boundaries, Xiao Liang.”
Liang Hao raised her hand in confusion, and after a few seconds, realized how bold she had been just now. “I’m sorry, Idol.”
“Ridiculous, these two were even hugging.” Gao Zhi felt that Liang Hao was a true powerhouse for being able to hang out with Kong Qiaofeng.
Xu Qingfeng looked at Kong Qiaofeng and Liang Hao, who had quickly separated, and observed the faint blush on both their faces, revealing a knowing smile.
“There’s a lot you don’t know.”
The four of them finished their simple meal and then disbanded. After agreeing to Liang Hao’s request, Kong Qiaofeng also planned to buy a gift for Xia Yiqiu.
It was strange. Last time, Xia Yiqiu and Xu Qingfeng ran into each other repeatedly in this mall, yet today they were only one floor apart and couldn’t see each other.
The group wasted time waiting for five o’clock in the afternoon.
As the weather grows colder, the sky darkens earlier. It was already approaching early winter.
Xia Yiqiu’s parents were abroad, and they had sent her gifts in advance. Xia Yiqiu was not surprised by this. Aunt Li prepared things and went to her room to rest early. Since tomorrow was the weekend, tonight was destined to be a night of freedom.
Gao Zhi drove Xu Qingfeng to Xia Yiqiu’s house. When they arrived, Liang Hao and the others were already there. Xu Qingfeng shoved her gift into Xia Yiqiu’s arms and then quickly disappeared.
“Quite mysterious,” Gao Zhi commented from behind, then looked at Li Tian, who still avoided his gaze.
Xu Qingfeng’s heart was pounding right now, wondering if Yiqiu would like her gift.
Holding the gift, Xia Yiqiu looked at Xu Qingfeng, who was sitting upright on the sofa.
The little bookworm was especially handsome today. Was it for her? Xia Yiqiu already had the answer in her heart.
After receiving everyone’s gifts, she led them to another living room. She walked straight to Xu Qingfeng’s seat. “Qingfeng, do you think it’s okay if I open it now?”
How could Xu Qingfeng refuse, still feeling anxious? “Whenever you like.”
Xia Yiqiu opened the exquisite gift bag. She remembered it was the packaging from that shop and felt a growing expectation.
So, last time, was she buying it for her?
Her hands were slightly slow in opening the gift box, and her heart was pounding.
“Pa-da.” The box opened, and a dazzling diamond butterfly bracelet instantly caught the girl’s eye.
Xia Yiqiu loved the bracelet. Xu Qingfeng saw genuine surprise in her eyes.
“Will you put it on for me?” The girl sitting beside her asked gently, offering her hand and the bracelet.
My pleasure.
Xu Qingfeng grasped the soft hand, treating it as a treasure. She carefully unclasped the bracelet and fastened it onto the girl’s wrist, which was delicate and smooth like a waterfall of milk.
“It’s on,” Xu Qingfeng didn’t let go of her hand, looking up at the equally dazzling girl. Xia Yiqiu looked exceptionally beautiful today.
Xia Yiqiu was wearing a brown-green English style dress with light grey on the collar and cuffs, a pearl headband, and pearl earrings. She looked both gentle and dignified, and she perfectly matched Xu Qingfeng today. It was hard to say Li Tian hadn’t offered advice.
Xu-You-Autumn-Breeze Fan Group Chat.
Feng Xiaoxiao: I told you guys, don’t just focus on eating, look at the sofa over there.
Han Feng: Wow, truly exciting.
Member A: What good stuff did you all see? Remember to live-stream it!
Liang Hao: Step aside, watch me.
Liang Hao quickly took a sneak photo and sent the picture to the group chat.
Qing Wang My Dad: Oh my god! They look so good together today, a golden girl and a jade girl. I love it!
Xia Mao My Mom: Is this a proposal? Why are they still holding hands? I don’t care, it just is. [Arbitrary logic JPG.]
Just as Liang Hao was about to enthusiastically type, Kong Qiaofeng poked her with her elbow. “What are you doing sneakily? Chatting with your crush?” Her language was filled with sharp displeasure.
“No, it’s the group chat. A member is asking something.” Liang Hao pulled at Kong Qiaofeng’s sleeve. “Idol, I’m absolutely not lying to you.”
“If you dare to lie to me, you’re finished,” Kong Qiaofeng threatened.
Liang Hao looked at the silver-haired girl who was harsh on the surface but soft-hearted inside, and smiled faintly.
She always scares people, this insecure little cat who wants company, always shows her claws when facing others, making them think she’s a tiger.
Beside them, Gao Zhi saw Liang Hao being threatened. Chewing on pizza, he said to Li Tian, “Sister Liang is truly miserable.”
“Maybe she enjoys it. If she truly didn’t want to, she wouldn’t have agreed to bring her along,” Li Tian said, looking at the two couples with a hint of envy.
“Huh?” Gao Zhi was completely confused by this remark.
Looking at Gao Zhi’s clueless look, what could she say? She had been attracted to his silly, pure appearance back then.
As she was about to say what she needed to, Li Tian’s tone turned cold.
“You stay after the party tonight. I have something to tell you. Your probation period is over.”
“Can you extend it a little longer?” Gao Zhi always felt that a major choice awaited her when the term ended today, and she was very scared.
“No,” Li Tian refused resolutely.
Gao Zhi wanted to say more, but they were already being ushered by the others into the audio-visual room at Xia Yiqiu’s house. It was soundproof and wouldn’t disturb anyone. They brought their food and belongings in there.
Han Feng had already set up the Aeroplane Chess board. This was the great activity he had prepared. Singing was too boring, even though President Xia’s equipment was professional.
Feng Xiaoxiao didn’t expect Han Feng to bring such a boring and old-fashioned thing. She teased, “Director Han, oh Director Han, what kind of drama are you rehearsing? It’s too dull~.”
Han Feng was furious and pointed at her, saying, “Feng Xiaoxiao, do you have any taste?!”
“Abracadabra, if you don’t believe me, ask everyone. Does anyone want to play?” Feng Xiaoxiao didn’t indulge him. She stuck out her tongue and made a face at Han Feng, then questioned him back.
Liang Hao was the first to speak her mind. “Han Feng, it really is a bit boring. How about we play Truth or Dare?”
Han Feng subconsciously wanted to object but saw Liang Hao give him a meaningful look.
Something was up. He reluctantly agreed, “Alright.”
He secretly messaged Liang Hao on his phone, “What’s going on?”
Liang Hao replied: Cooperate with me later. How about we give those two a dare? [Evil laugh JPG.]
Han Feng changed his expression after seeing the message. So that’s it. He glanced at Liang Hao, signaling that it was no problem, and replied: okk, Consensus reached JPG.
Xia Yiqiu and Xu Qingfeng, sitting in the middle, looked like obedient students, while Liu Xiao watched silently from the side, observing everything.
Xu Qingfeng thought of something. “We haven’t blown out the candles yet. Should we do it now?” Xu Qingfeng said, looking at the cake in the center of the long coffee table.
Feng Xiaoxiao quickly turned off the lights. “Oops, the candles aren’t lit yet,” she muttered to herself. She planned to turn the light back on in a second.
Liang Hao looked at Kong Qiaofeng, who had instantly leaped out of her arms, slightly confused.
Is she afraid of the dark?
However, the girl’s expression had already returned to normal, and she glared at her, saying, “What are you looking at?”
“Nothing,” she had no ill intent to expose the little beast’s disguise.
Xu Qingfeng lit the candles one by one and said softly to Xia Yiqiu beside her, “It’s ready.”
Lights out.
Xia Yiqiu prayed in the darkness. The candlelight illuminated her face, showing a faint smile, indicating that the cake’s owner was hoping for a beautiful wish.
If possible, I hope Xu Qingfeng can be with me for every birthday from now on.
Then, with one breath, all the candles were blown out, and the room lights came back on.
Amidst the well wishes, the teenagers gathered together and happily drank some low-proof fruit wine, as minors shouldn’t drink alcohol.
However, even this fruit wine could cause intoxication if too much was consumed. Xu Qingfeng, who was usually very disciplined, drank a few sips, and her cheeks flushed pink.
“Quick, quick, Truth or Dare! Han Feng’s Aeroplane Chess dice will come in handy,” Liang Hao exclaimed excitedly.
Xu Qingfeng and Xia Yiqiu had no choice; everyone else agreed.
Liang Hao then announced the rules.
Each person rolls the dice: 1-3 is Truth or Dare; 4-5 is a question.
Before rolling the dice, they would spin a bottle in order, and each person spins twice. The two people the bottle points to will roll the dice. If the two rolls are the same, they re-roll. If the numbers are in the same range, the person with the higher number asks the question, and the person with the lower number gets the Truth or Dare. The question for Truth or Dare will be set by the person asking the question on the spot.
After Liang Hao announced the rules, everyone except Han Feng and Kong Qiaofeng, who were aware beforehand, gasped. Playing this seriously?
Since the decision was made, there was no option to refuse. The game officially began.
The group sat in a circle. Li Tian was the first, and Gao Zhi was the last. Starting with Li Tian.
Xu Qingfeng was a little nervous. It should be fine, right? She wasn’t sure. Her mind was a little muddled right now.
So, let the spinning begin!
The first round, Li Tian spun to Feng Xiaoxiao and Han Feng. Han Feng had the higher number.
Han Feng asked Feng Xiaoxiao who she liked. Feng Xiaoxiao refused to say, so Han Feng punished her with a dare to drink a cup of fruit wine. There were bigger things coming up, and Han Feng was looking forward to it.
Xu Qingfeng watched Feng Xiaoxiao finish the drink in one gulp, thinking with her currently sluggish brain.
It doesn’t seem that difficult.
The second round, Han Feng spun to Li Tian and Liu Xiao. Li Tian had the higher number.
…
Because the people spun to next were not the ones with “hot topics,” the rounds passed quickly and were a bit boring.
Just as Han Feng was about to give up, it was Kong Qiaofeng’s turn to spin. Liang Hao gave Han Feng a reassuring look, telling him to just wait.
Kong Qiaofeng looked at the two people who had exchanged slightly too many glances tonight and was very unhappy.
“Stop looking at him, or I don’t know if my spin will be accurate.” She said this right next to Liang Hao.
Music was playing in the audio-visual room, and the lighting was dim, with only the screen light on. Han Feng said this created a good atmosphere. This was also how he planned his Aeroplane Chess, so the people next to them couldn’t clearly see their secretive actions and words.
When Liang Hao heard this, she felt a strong sense of danger. This little ancestor, what did she do to provoke her this time? She quickly whispered an explanation in Kong Qiaofeng’s ear.
“I wasn’t looking. I was saying he’s stupid.” Kong Qiaofeng glanced at the happily waiting Han Feng. It didn’t seem like a lie.
Kong Qiaofeng spun and landed on herself and Xia Yiqiu. Liang Hao wasn’t worried about who had the higher or lower number; the outcome was certain.
Xia Yiqiu had the lower number, and Kong Qiaofeng had the higher.
Kong Qiaofeng spoke the words Liang Hao had given her. “Who is the person you like?”
How could she possibly say that? Xia Yiqiu wanted Xu Qingfeng to confess first; otherwise, she would have waited all this time for nothing.
“I choose dare.”
“I want you to choose one person to eat a Pocky stick with.” As she spoke, Liang Hao pulled out the cookie stick she had been hiding in her pocket for a long time.
Xia Yiqiu was struggling. She really wanted to choose Xu Qingfeng, but doing so in front of everyone was too embarrassing. Maybe Li Tian?
“Then I choose Li…” Her words were interrupted by Liang Hao.
Liang Hao saw Xia Yiqiu’s intention and directly shut down her idea with a single sentence. “Yiqiu, do you still remember the wish you promised me on Mid-Autumn Festival?”
“I remember.” But why was Liang Hao bringing it up now?
Hehe, Liang Hao’s face showed a sly smile. Originally, she wanted to directly ask Xia Yiqiu and Xu Qingfeng to publicly eat it as punishment for the couple who had abandoned her that day, and also to provide some fan service for everyone. Liang Hao was very vindictive.
Later, when Kong Qiaofeng came, she thought it might be better to play a game first so her intention wouldn’t be too obvious.
“Then I want you to choose Xu Qingfeng.”
Xu Qingfeng’s mind went blank. Playing this seriously?
She didn’t want to make Yiqiu uncomfortable and planned to refuse, but Gao Zhi, this time, found a chance for revenge.
“Xu Qingfeng, I have a wish too! Hurry up and cooperate! Hahahaha,” Gao Zhi felt happy just thinking about it, being able to see Xu Qingfeng make a fool of herself.
Li Tian next to him felt that this was just a reward for them. Why was this whole circle of people so happy?
