Chapter 367. The thing I hate most about Jiuliang doing (in the middle of the night)

"Ding," no reaction, passed, no lie.

"Then have you ever had a girlfriend before?" Ye Jiuliang continued to ask.

"No."

Still no reaction.

Feng Yi withdrew his hand and smirked smugly, then looked at Jiang Yisheng with skepticism.

"Why are you staring at me?" Jiang Yisheng sighed helplessly, wishing he could bury himself in a hole.

"Asheng, want to try again?" Ye Jiuliang asked with a smile.

Smelling a trap, Jiang Yisheng was about to shake his head but, facing their gossip-thirsty gazes, agreed helplessly.

If he didn’t try again, this question would probably never go away.

Placing his right hand on the Lie Detector, Jiang Yisheng wore an expression of resigned fate, "Just ask."

"Do you have someone you like?" Feng Yi asked eagerly.

Why the same question again.

Jiang Yisheng was full of black lines, and as he looked up, his gaze inadvertently met Ji Mingqian’s, who emotionlessly turned his head away, "No."

The light flashed repeatedly, "Zzzt," he was shocked unexpectedly, and Jiang Yisheng quickly let go of the Lie Detector.

The atmosphere suddenly turned quiet.

"Haha." Ye Jiuliang burst into laughter.

It seemed Asheng couldn’t clear himself with the Lie Detector.

"Mohan, does Asheng have someone he likes?"

Li Mochan looked down at her, lips curling into a faint smile, "Didn’t he just confess?"

"Cousin." Jiang Yisheng called out tearfully.

"This is really a coincidence, a misunderstanding."

"Then why did it shock you and not me?" Feng Yi challenged.

Jiang Yisheng choked, "I... I"

Ji Mingqian glanced at the Lie Detector on the table – could this thing really be so magical?

"Then I’ll change the question, and you try again." Ye Jiuliang barely stopped laughing, becoming more and more interested in the Lie Detector.

Jiang Yisheng nodded and placed his hand back on the Lie Detector. After being shocked twice in a row, he now had a psychological shadow over this Lie Detector.

Feng Yi pressed the start button, and Ye Jiuliang asked, "Asheng, will you completely give up the violin?"

"No," Jiang Yisheng replied without hesitating.

Feng Yi looked down at the Lie Detector, "Ding," it passed.

Jiang Yisheng, "..."

How come it feels like things are getting more confusing.

"Asheng, you really did lie." Feng Yi grinned.

Ji Mingqian narrowed his brows, looking at Jiang Yisheng with doubtful eyes. Who had he fallen for?

"I truly didn’t, don’t believe me? Ask again." Jiang Yisheng proactively placed his hand on the Lie Detector.

"Is the person you like older or younger than you?" Li Mochan, who had hardly participated in the game, suddenly asked, posing a tricky question that made Ye Jiuliang want to applaud.

"..."

Jiang Yisheng felt herds of grass mud horses galloping in his heart.

What the heck, was it still possible for him to back out now?

Bro, hold back, stop digging the pit for your brother.

"Asheng, come on, tell us." Feng Yi looked on, anticipating the show.

"Younger," Jiang Yisheng said softly, looking down.

As the words fell, history repeated itself, and electricity coursed through his palm. Jiang Yisheng quickly pulled his hand back.

This is really the end of him.

Now, the jokes of the evening were all on Jiang Yisheng. Ye Jiuliang, eyes gleaming with mirth, teased, "Asheng, do you like mature women?"

Jiang Yisheng massaged his numb hand from the shock, his face full of despair.

Indeed, home is the safest place.

He muttered, "Where did you guys buy this Lie Detector, it’s such poor quality, I’ll return it tomorrow."

"Hahaha." Feng Yi laughed so hard he fell to the ground.

Li Mochan reached out to hold Ye Jiuliang, to keep her from laughing too much and accidentally knocking into something.

Ye Jiuliang suggested to him, "Why don’t you try a different answer?"

Having been shocked too many times, Jiang Yisheng hesitated.

In the end, he slowly reached out his hand and placed it on the Lie Detector again.

Feng Yi pressed the start button, repeating the question Li Mochan had just asked, "Asheng, is the person you like older or younger than you?"

Jiang Yisheng hesitated, then said calmly, "... older."

With a "beep," he passed safely.

The air suddenly grew quiet, the atmosphere tinged with subtle nuances.

Ye Jiuliang uttered a meaningfully elongated "Oh," and smilingly called out, "Asheng."

Jiang Yisheng, "..."

Wrong, wrong, it was his fault; he shouldn’t have joined this game in the first place. The deepest paths were their traps.

"Asheng, come clean, who is it exactly?" Feng Yi nudged his shoulder, pressing for an answer.

Jiang Yisheng rolled his eyes at him, "It’s by chance, a matter of probability."

Wow, wow, bringing up probability now, like he would believe that nonsense.

Feng Yi pursed his lips.

"We’ve all played, cousin hasn’t played yet, let’s have cousin give it a go." Not wanting to stay in this pit any longer, Jiang Yisheng quickly changed the subject.

Li Mochan glanced at him sidelong, his deep gaze making Jiang Yisheng feel uneasy.

"Mohan." Ye Jiuliang brought over the Lie Detector, grabbing his hand to place it on the device.

"Ahan, what do you hate Jiuliang doing the most?" Feng Yi asked, unfazed by the potential drama.

Hearing this, Ye Jiuliang looked up at Li Mochan, curious about his answer.

Li Mochan said softly, "Sleeping in separate rooms."

With a "beep," he was safe.

"Oh..." Feng Yi and the others teased and laughed.

Ye Jiuliang wasn’t embarrassed and continued to ask, "So when we get married, is it okay for you to wear a wedding dress?"

Ji Mingqian opened a can of beer, his eyes twinkling with mischievous laughter.

The head of Dark Hall in a wedding dress, interesting.

Li Mochan’s lips tightened slightly, his tone a bit more helpless, "No."

"Then forget it, let’s not get married." Ye Jiuliang watched the inactive Lie Detector, her lips trembling slightly.

Feng Yi erupted in laughter that sounded like honking, "Hahaha hic..."

In the end, he didn’t forget to tease Jiang Yisheng, "Asheng, you might as well come clean about who you like."

Seeing the topic was circling back to him, Jiang Yisheng bowed his head to peel some crayfish, firmly avoiding their conversation.

He rarely ate these things, and peeling the crayfish was quite a struggle, ending up with just bits of crayfish left.

"Here." Finally, unable to watch any longer, Feng Yi peeled two for him and placed them in his bowl.

Jiang Yisheng curved his lips into a smile, "Thanks, Boss Feng."

"Get outta here," Feng Yi retorted with a laugh.

Ji Mingqian, holding a bowl, came over to Feng Yi, joking, "Boss Feng, peel some for me as well."

Feng Yi snorted, "Dream on."

His own skills at peeling crayfish were clearly sharper than his, he was just looking for fun. Unlike Asheng, who really couldn’t, he couldn’t possibly be the same.

"There’s a famous hot spring resort here in city C, I heard they have their own brewed plum wine and maple leaves to see. Do you guys want to check it out tomorrow?"

Ye Jiuliang raised an eyebrow, plum wine?

She asked him, "Mohan, shall we go take a look?"

Li Mochan nodded, "Mhm."

"Mingqian, are you coming?" Feng Yi looked towards the person beside him and asked.

Ji Mingqian’s lips twitched with a slight smile, "I’ll go." Of course, he would go if it sounded fun.

"Alright, then it’s decided," Feng Yi declared decisively.
