“I dare. Are you up for it?”
“Until the very end.” An Xiaoning raised her chin. “How do we play?”
He got down from the bed and took out a box. When he returned, he sat opposite her and placed the box on the covers, asking, “Take a guess, what’s inside?”
An Xiaoning shook her head. “No idea.”
Jin Qingyan opened the box and explained, “This is a lie detector. We’ll use this as a tool for our game of truth or dare. Place your hand on it — if your answer to my question is a lie, you’ll be electrocuted. If it’s the truth, you won’t be. Let’s play scissors, paper, stone. The winner gets to ask first.”
Her whole life, An Xiaoning feared being electrocuted the most. The feeling of not knowing if she would be shocked was something that really strikes fear into her heart, but it was not like her to go back on her word.
Nevertheless, she braced herself for it. “Can anything be asked?”
“Of course. Ask anything you are curious about.” He positioned the lie detector properly and declared, “Okay — scissors, paper, stone.”
An Xiaoning played stone while he played scissors. She got to ask him first.
Jin Qingyan voluntarily put his hand on the detector and pressed the button. “Come on, ask me.”
“Marrying me, was it a decision you made willingly?
“Yes.”
The lie detector did not react. He took off his hand. “Your turn.”
An Xiaoning placed her hand on it. She could feel her heart racing like it was going to burst out of her chest anytime.
“How well do you think I perform as a husband… in that area?”
“…” She knew it. He was not going to pass up this opportunity to ask such questions — right as she had expected.
“Superior…”
Looking at the lie detector’s reaction, Jin Qingyan broke into a delighted grin that was as warm as the spring breeze. It showed all over his face until even his ears became the color of beetroot. It was obvious how satisfied he was with her answer.
Now it was An Xiaoning’s turn to question him. This time, An Xiaoning wanted to ask him something she already had a clear answer for. She wanted to ask him this, perhaps, to verify if her answer was accurate.
“If Chi Rui’er and I were to fall into the water, who would you save?”
His gaze started to shift slightly, but he still answered, “Chi Rui’er, because she can’t swim. You learned how to swim recently. If such a thing happened, I would save her first, then go and save you.”
For some reason, hearing this answer was like a stab in An Xiaoning’s heart. All the happiness she felt within her vanished. Yet, she already knew this was the likely answer — it was akin to asking him if he loved Chi Rui’er or her.
“My turn.” An Xiaoning voluntarily placed her hand on the device again.
“What position do you like?”
“Can I reject answering this question?”
“No.”
She really could not bear to answer this question, but seeing the countdown timer on the device, she still muttered, “From behind.”
The corner of Jin Qingyan’s lips curled into a faint smile, and he put his hand onto the device again.
“Do you think… I can make you fall for me in the future?” An Xiaoning was calm as she stared at him, expectantly waiting for his answer.
