After a Contractual Marriage, Little Taotie Went Viral!-Chapter 273 - 267: I Like You!

Qin Yun had no time to reply before receiving a message.

Pei Yan: [I understand.]

Qin Yun was speechless. What did he understand?!

She hadn’t said anything yet, so how did he understand?

Yang Leqi made herself as small as possible, glanced at the two with the corner of her eye, unsure of what they were talking about. Pei Yan seemed very pleased, no need to ask, anyone could sense his good mood.

In contrast, Qin Yun looked slightly frowning, quite perplexed.

What was Mr. Pei saying?

Yang Leqi didn’t dare to ask, but she couldn’t help feeling curious.

After that, Pei Yan and Qin Yun didn’t continue their conversation, their serious demeanor made it even harder for Yang Leqi to ask.

Until they reached the shop.

Because Pei Yan had instructed in advance, according to the ordered dishes, different areas were specifically designated for different cuisines.

In less than an hour, they managed to do this. Have to say, money really does wonders.

All ingredients were freshly purchased; Pei Yan’s shop was originally a high-end restaurant. The chefs were very skilled, capable of quite a bit.

Due to the tight schedule and large number of people, except for the hotpot that could be eaten right away, the other dishes needed some time.

"Since it’s like this, let’s play a game," the director suggested.

"What game?" As soon as Wang Sirui heard about games, he became immediately excited and asked eagerly.

The director looked around. The open space wasn’t large, so he said, "Let’s play charades: one person acts, five people guess, divided into two groups, guests in one group, staff in another. Within five minutes, the group that guesses the most wins, and the losers have to drink the dark cocktail made by the winners, which can include soy sauce, vinegar, salt, chili, etc."

"Hiss... will it be drinkable with that taste?" Yang Leqi showed a speechless expression upon hearing the director’s words.

"It should be drinkable?" The director hesitated for a moment.

"My god!! Should be? Director, are you sure it won’t be a problem drinking it?!" Wang Sirui’s eyes widened in horror.

"It won’t land you in the hospital." The director vaguely replied.

Wang Sirui immediately turned to the others in horror, saying, "I don’t want to drink this dark cocktail!!"

"I don’t want to drink it either...," Yang Leqi’s face turned a little pale.

"We have to win! We can’t lose!!" the two of them said in unison.

Qin Yun: "??"

"I think it might be okay? We can give it a try." Qin Yun licked her lips, her peach blossom eyes sparkling brightly, looking eager to try.

The description made her think the taste should have many layers.

Qin Yun’s words instantly attracted everyone’s attention: "..."

Under the myriad of gazes, Pei Yan chuckled softly.

It drew a strange and complex look from Yang Leqi.

Chen Yao twitched his mouth, "You have quite a unique taste..."

The director, possibly feeling emboldened by Qin Yun’s words, said, "It’s definitely drinkable, just dark cuisine; the taste won’t be great. Besides, if it tasted good, it wouldn’t be a punishment, it would be a reward."

"Give me a few seconds, I’ll turn on the software, then the staff can use this time to decide on the participants." Without giving them a chance to speak, the director opened his phone and launched the software.

A few seconds later.

The director said, "Alright, which group wants to start? Timing is five minutes, see which group guesses the most."

"You go first, we’ll observe," Chen Yao said.

"Brother Yao is right, let’s watch first." Wang Sirui, already near Chen Yao, moved beside him, placing a hand on Chen Yao’s shoulder, agreeing.

Chen Yao lowered his shoulder and moved away, avoiding Wang Sirui’s arm.

Wang Sirui didn’t expect Chen Yao to dodge, with most of his weight on him. The sudden retreat almost made him fall, staggering a few steps before regaining his balance.

"Brother Yao... why did you suddenly move away?" Wang Sirui looked at Chen Yao with an aggrieved expression.

"A bit heavy." Chen Yao raised an eyebrow.

"Alright then, we’ll start," the director said, looking at the stack of juices and various seasonings the staff had just brought over, loudly declaring, "If you don’t want to drink that stuff, you have to win!!"

The six chosen ones, male and female, immediately shouted, "Victory!!"

A member of the staff stood opposite to act, while the others lined up to guess. Once the director signaled to start, he showed the actor the words.

The first phrase was: willingness to help others.

The staff actor saw the words, gestured the four characters first, then gestured wildly.

They still guessed wrong in the end.

The first word being wrong made the rest of them more anxious and flustered.

While the staff group played charades.

Chen Yao crossed his left arm in front, supporting his right forearm, his right hand on his chin, pondering, "It feels quite challenging."

"It’s fun because it’s challenging!" Wang Sirui thought it was fine.

"Who will act?" Yang Leqi joined in and asked.

"This requires some acting skills, right?" Wang Sirui hesitated, "Among us, the best are Mr. Pei and Brother Yao."

"Then let Pei Yan do it!" Chen Yao decided firmly.

"I think that’s perfect!!" Wang Sirui immediately grinned.

Yang Leqi also nodded but still turned to ask, "Is it okay with you, Mr. Pei?"

"I can do it," Pei Yan nodded.

And so, the decision on who would act was settled simply and decisively.

After discussing it, only one minute remained for the staff group.

The staff group ended up guessing five correctly.

When it was the guest group’s turn, they all looked at Pei Yan with confidence, "You can do it, Mr. Pei!!"

Qin Yun, standing last, also tilted her head and nodded vigorously at him, seeming to use expressions to cheer him on.

Guest group, the first phrase: falling blossoms lack affection, while flowing water is intentional.

Pei Yan glanced at it: "..."

Then he indicated eight.

"Director! This is biased!! They got four-character idioms, while ours is so long!!" Seeing Pei Yan indicating eight characters, Wang Sirui immediately got agitated, worried that he might disrupt Pei Yan’s train of thought, he could only grumble quietly.

The director replied with a smile, "The phone generated it automatically, I can’t control it."

Wang Sirui: "..."

Fortunately, the first one was Chen Yao, and Pei Yan’s acting was spot-on, so they guessed it quickly.

Getting the first one right immediately boosted their group’s confidence; the subsequent ones also went smoothly.

Until it was Qin Yun’s turn to guess.

Pei Yan checked his phone: overjoyed.

He first indicated four characters, then pointed at Qin Yun, gesturing a heart.

Qin Yun instinctively responded, "I like you!"

Pei Yan’s face immediately broke into a smile, his eyes full of Qin Yun, acknowledging, "Correct."
