Rob took out the props he had prepared in advance, smiling at everyone, "We’ll use the method of spinning a bottle. Whoever the bottle points to will draw a slip and decide if they want ’truth or dare’."

This game is quite old-fashioned and basically everyone has played it, so there’s no need for much introduction.

The empty bottle on the ground was left from the wine they just finished drinking.

The bottle was spun on the ground, and the seven of them stood in a circle around it.

The mouth of the bottle finally stopped slowly in front of Josh.

She couldn’t help but scowl, as expected...

A game black hole.

Back in her master’s sect, her seniors often played this with her, and she always lost, always drawing the dare.

The dares included, but were not limited to, serving the senior brother meals for a week, watching the medicine furnace for the second senior brother for a week, getting ten spirit summoning spells from handsome senior brothers of other sects for the third senior sister, and using disguise secret technique to attend ten Elder Council meetings instead of her master...

Every time she was drawn, playing a night of truth or dare meant she had to devote a year to the sect.

Josh scowled at Rob: "Give me the draw."

Rob nodded with a smile, placing two small slips in front of Josh.

Josh stared at the slips for a while, then cursing under her breath, picked one and opened it. Sure enough, it was a dare.

Stupid game.

Rob was amused and asked her to pick a punishment card.

Yuze watched her actions and signaled to Rob.

Rob returned the glance, implying, "With me here, don’t worry," and had Josh pick a card.

Josh picked a slip, opened it, and her face turned crimson.

"Please kiss the person on your left for a minute."

How’s that different from pooping on the street??

Josh looked at them expressionlessly: "I think this punishment is something you wouldn’t want to see."

Rob snatched the slip from her hand, saw the content, and cheered, "Little Tactician is going to force-kiss our captain~"

Ma Qi spat out a mouthful of wine: "No way! No dating allowed!"

Rob quickly said, "Coach, this isn’t called dating." 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

Ma Qi, hands on hips, blushing, obviously drunk: "If not dating, what is it?"

Yuze smirked: "It’s called fooling around."

Josh’s face turned even redder.

Rob: "So, Little Tactician, do you accept the punishment or are you chickening out?"

Josh stiffly said, "Of course not!"

She turned and grabbed Yuze’s collar, pulling his head down and pressed her lips to his.

Yuze raised an eyebrow, deliberately trying to struggle, but Josh urgently held him in place.

It needed to last a minute; if he struggled free, it would all be wasted.

A minute later, they separated.

Josh didn’t dare to look at him, cleared her throat and sat down aside, missing the exchanged conspiratorial smiles between Yuze and Rob.

Rob wanted to start a second round, but Josh directly refused: "I’m done playing!"

Yuze looked at her: "Why stop? We just started this round?"

Josh was a bit dejected: "Every time I play truth or dare, I’m so unlucky. Even when I played with my master and seniors, I was always the unlucky one. I don’t want to play anymore."

"I see..." Yuze’s eyes glinted, and he suddenly smiled: "How about this, I lend you my luck, and you try again. I’ve always been quite lucky with this game."

Josh gave him a dark look: "You think I’m three years old?"

Yuze: "Not really, maybe six, no more than that."

The fierce and decisive Little Tactician in the game, getting played around in such a silly game by her teammates, was truly... adorable!

He suppressed the laughter in his eyes and coaxed like he was talking to a child: "Give it another shot. I swear I lent you my luck. Maybe this time, you’ll see someone else being unlucky?"

Seeing everyone looking at her eagerly, Josh reluctantly nodded: "Alright then, just one more round, and then I’m done."

A new round began.

Rob was about to spin when Yuze suddenly said, "Let Josh try spinning it."

Josh looked at him.

Yuze nodded his chin at her: "Spin it."

Josh inexplicably felt like she was truly covered by an aura of luck. Heart stirred, she went over to the bottle and gave it a spin.

The bottle started spinning again, and everyone watched it without blinking.

Josh instinctively held her breath, watching the bottle mouth slowly slow down, almost pointing in her direction.

She couldn’t help but scowl; sure enough, luck was something you shouldn’t gamble on, a game black hole is always a black hole.

Suddenly, the bottle mouth slowly approaching her started moving again, incredibly maintaining a slow speed until it landed on the person to her right!

To her right was Rob.

"Damn! How is it me?" Rob jumped up.

Josh’s eyes sparkled as she looked at Yuze: "Captain! Look!"

Yuze had a lazy smile on his face: "I see, I see, someone’s going to have bad luck."

Josh was really excited. This was the first time in her life playing truth or dare she wasn’t the unlucky one.

She looked at Yuze, grinning: "Thanks for lending me your luck, Captain!"

Yuze laughed and ruffled her hair: "You’re welcome."

In the following rounds, the bottle almost never landed on Josh.

All the bad luck fell on the others.

They messed around until past midnight. It was just too cold outside, and they had no choice but to return to their tents.

Even though it was already late spring and early summer, it was still very cold at the high mountaintop. They hadn’t brought warm clothes, but luckily there were heaters in the tents to manage.

Josh, having played all day, was a bit tired, crawled into her tent, and soon forgot the day’s reservations, almost falling asleep as soon as she lay down.

Yuze entered with a wet wipe, seeing her sleeping soundly with her little tummy up, couldn’t help but chuckle: "Turns out I’ve been raising a little mess."

Saying this, he still lowered his voice, went over with the wet wipe and carefully wiped her palms and the backs of her hands, cleaned her fingers, wiped her face, helped her remove her coat, tucked her into the sleeping bag, and only then took care of himself and joined her in the sleeping bag.

Josh was actually semi-conscious, but too tired. Sensing it was Yuze who came in, she simply gave up resisting and let him fuss over her.

The two of them snuggled into one sleeping bag. Yuze’s tall and broad figure almost instantly created a big pocket of warmth in the blanket.

Josh was chilled a bit by the cold air, muttered something discontentedly, and was pulled into a warm, broad chest, the heat transferring through their clothes.

In the darkness, she awkwardly opened her eyes but, afraid of the awkwardness, continued to feign sleep.

Luckily, Yuze didn’t do anything excessive. As if afraid she’d feel cold, he just pulled her closer into his arms, tucked the blanket around her, adjusted his position, and fell asleep.
