"How about we play a game?" Shen Jiao smiled. She stood near the bookshelves and looked at everyone sitting at the enormous L-shaped couch in the entertainment area. Across the sofa was a billiard table. Next to it was a table tennis table.
"What game?" Chu Munan asked. Since coming to the party, this was the first time that he saw Lyca up close. He was already smiling, like a boy who just saw his crush walked by.
"Darts?" Shen Jiao said. "We are all good at shooting."
"I'm in!" Tang Fangmei instantly agreed. Isn't this the right time to show off her heavenly skills?
"Shen Qui is playing for me!" Lyca said without hesitation. What game? She was still hungry! While the others started talking about the rules, Lyca asked Shen Qui what he liked to eat. She would personally get some food and come back here so they could eat.
Lyca could quickly ask a maid to get her food, but she wasn't that stupid. The place is crawling with enemies— the sad thing was she actually didn't know all of her enemies. It is always better to be careful and avoid any accidents.
Saying nothing, Lyca left and walked straight to the kitchen where the rest of the food should be.
"How disrespectful!" Tang Fangmei didn't miss the chance to criticize Lyca's actions in front of everyone. She heard from her mother that Lyca is now some big shot because of her inventions. Even Major An said that she was very talented and had a big future. She also said that more than half of the visitors tonight might come here because of Lyca.
In Tang Fangmei's mind, this should be the reason why Lyca agreed to come here and join them, despite not wanting to play any games. She wanted to hide away from the businessmen and people who wanted to meet her. Well, at least she was still smart enough to know that this party is for their grandfather.
Tang Fangmei let out a curse inwardly. After that small reunion, she knew that Lyca must have told her grandfather.
"What's so disrespectful about being hungry?" Shen Qui asked, brows furrowed.
"You— "
"Fangmei… we are here to have fun." Tang Jinyi's voice had a tinge of warning before he started smiling again. "Alright… we should all play darts. The rules are simple. The highest score would, of course, win. We will use ten darts each. Since all of us can shoot, there will be no excuses. You have to hit the center, bull's eye in every shot. Missing one-shot meant… you have to drink one glass of cocktail and do some truth or consequence. So again, one missed shot means one glass as well as truth or dare. Do you have any objections?"
"None!"
"No objections here!"
"Alright! We should all start!"
"Since I was the one who suggested a new game then… I will start." Tang Fangmei stood and smiled at everyone. Her gaze stopped at Xu Jihan for a couple of minutes. She couldn't help but wonder why he had been too silent. Was he angry? Did he… did he recognized her? She cleared her throat and lifted her long sky blue dress as she walked towards the darts. "Alright… ten darts?"
"One mistake, one glass!" Tang Jinyi was quick to remind her of the rules.
"Alright…" Tang Fangmei smiled. Then she let go of her first dart. "Oops! I missed!" Frustrations laced her tone as she pouted. Her beautiful make-up made her more beautiful. "Do I have to drink it now?"
"Of course," Shen Jiao handed her a glass of alcoholic cocktail. "The aim is to get you drunk."
For a few seconds, regret flashed in Tang Fangmei's eyes. She looked at the glass and hesitated for a few minutes before she accepted it. In fact, she deliberately missed the first shot hoping that Xu Jihan would say that he would drink for her.
That would have been the sign that he recognized her that night.
It seems that she was wrong?
Xu Jihan… he actually didn't recognize the woman that he slept with?
She bit her lips and finished the cocktail in one go. "Alright! I made a mistake on that one! This time… I would not miss!"
Just as Tang Fangmei said… she didn't miss on the second, third until the tenth dart. She gave a smug smile and flicked her long curly hair before returning back to her seat.
"Fangmei… I never expected you to be this good," Tang Ruyi's mockery as she walked inside the entertainment room only worsen Tang Fangmei's mood. She eyed Tang Ruyi, who walked next to Lyca. Both girls were bringing plates of various food and put them on the dining table a few feet away from the couch. This place was complete with all amenities like a living room and dining table as most of the Tang family's grandchildren would love to stay in this place during reunions and gatherings. Old Man Tang made sure to put a fridge here full of drinks, a bar, and even video games. There was also a theater paired with huge and beautiful sound systems.
"Hmph! Tang Ruyi, stop mocking me and join us. Show me how good you are! If you can't hit all ten darts, then you don't have the right to mock me."
Lyca languidly rested her elbows on the circular dining table and started throwing food into her mouth. She ignored the bickering and Miss Shen, who was already shooting darts, as she gestured Shen Qui to sit and join her. The two started eating as if they were the only people inside the entertainment room.
Actually, Tang Fangmei's assumption was correct all along. Lyca wanted to hide, and this was the perfect spot for her to hide while eating and having a comfortable velvet chair to sit on.
"Shen Jiao! You actually hit all ten! You must be cheating ah!" Tang Jinyi instantly complained.
"It's not my fault that I am better than you," Shen Jiao smiled, but she was looking towards Lyca and, most importantly, Shen Qui. For some reason, a part of her thought that he looked really familiar.
However, she couldn't remember when she saw him before.
