Chapter 1212 - 1239: Do You Like It? (5)

Chapter 1212: Chapter 1239: Do You Like It? (5)

The atmosphere was quite relaxed, and Mia Ginger couldn’t help but smile.

Soon, the first round results were out.

Camden River lost.

Mia Ginger won.

Seeing her winning scissors hand, Mia Ginger was momentarily stunned and joked, "Thanks for going easy on me."

"Pfft!"

Everyone around burst into laughter and couldn’t wait to ask, "What will you choose?"

"Dare."

Camden River quickly made his choice.

In his current situation, choosing truth would surely bait him into a trap, and he was clear-headed about it.

Little did he know—

No matter what he chose, it wouldn’t be easy.

Even before Mina Lee spoke, Jacob Quinn directly laughed and shouted, "Why not kiss someone, give Toria Toole a French kiss."

Camden River: "..."

"What?" Toria Toole instinctively looked up, and then, with pleading eyes, looked towards Mia Ginger, who was trying to suppress her laughter. Meeting Toria’s eyes softened Mia a bit.

She had never noticed before that Toria Toole had beautiful eyes; dark pupils that made her seem innocent.

"Please don’t."

In their gaze exchange, Toria Toole mouthed a plea.

Mia Ginger exhaled softly, shrugged, and smiled, "It’s just the first round, let’s warm up. Let Camden River do a head pat instead."

"Uh!"

"Are you taking it easy too much!"

A head pat?

That’s just a pat on the head and done with?

Mina Lee looked over with an eye expression that could make Mia Ginger embarrassed a hundred times over.

Mia Ginger smiled back at her, looking innocent, then raised her chin towards Camden River, "How’s that for generosity?"

A chorus of howls erupted around them, Camden River sitting across from her, warmth lining his eyes that had been quiet for days. He slightly turned, palm down, ruffling Toria Toole’s head, leaving her cheeks flushed to the ears.

Mia Ginger gazed through the steam rising from the table, feeling life was peaceful and time stood still.

If she could, she’d think halting time at this moment isn’t too bad.

She couldn’t predict the future, but Windsor Myres’s sudden disappearance worried her.

Her instincts told her, going silent isn’t Windsor Myres’s style; if determined, she would drag Camden River into unfortunate entanglements. Perhaps because of her current pregnancy, Windsor has undergone changes, and Mia finds herself increasingly unable to bear a life of endless disputes.

Just thinking about it exhausted her.

Whether Windsor Myres, Camden River, Toria Toole, or even Ali Harris, their entangled lives might leave them wounded.

Mia felt honestly reluctant.

Mia Ginger sighed silently, nudged gently by Jacob Quinn’s girlfriend, and quickly joined the second round.

By chance, Toria Toole lost.

Mina Lee won.

Their relationship always good, Toria Toole visibly relaxed, "I’ll pick truth."

"Haha."

Mina Lee chuckled slyly, not waiting for everyone to react before asking, "To what stage have you got along with the charming student?"

"Pfft!"

Camden River’s roommate, drinking, turned his head and sprayed Jacob Quinn’s face.

Toria Toole stared at Mina Lee, mouth agape, wide enough for an egg, looking as if she wished she could disappear into the ground.

This question piqued Mia Ginger’s curiosity as well, not to mention everyone else; naturally, Toria was under the spotlight.

Camden River felt a twinge of pity, stayed quiet for a while, then suddenly spoke, "Kiss."

He answered for her.

"Doesn’t count doesn’t count!" Everyone was playing intently, Roy Anders boldly said, "What’s the point of your answer? Ask another question, change it change it!"

"Yes, yes!"

"Ask again."

"No cheating!"

Everyone was speaking over one another, and Camden River couldn’t get a word in, so Mina Lee directly threw out another question, "Kiss, huh,

Mia Ginger: "..."

Camden River: "?"

Both instinctively looked over at Toria Toole.

Toria Toole’s face now flushed red, instinctively glanced at Camden River and quickly retracted her gaze as if shocked.

Like or not?

What kind of question was that?

She felt whatever she answered would be wrong, full of embarrassment and frustration.

Amid the teasing crowd, she hesitated for a long while, lips moved, and Mina Lee immediately shushed, everyone heard the stuttered two words, "Li... like..."

Her face lowered close to her chest.

"Hmm, how much do you like him? Just a bit, a lot, or very very much..."

Mina Lee hadn’t finished speaking, and the restaurant burst into laughter again; Camden River’s expression turned a bit odd, reminded, "One question at a time."

His silence was better; once spoken, the crowd laughed endlessly.

After laughing for a while, Toria Toole couldn’t play anymore, used the excuse of preparing fruit platters for everyone, and fled to the kitchen.

The main character left, others naturally stared at each other.

After a while—

Camden River also stood up, seeing clearly, cast a glance at Jacob Quinn, "You guys did it on purpose, stop playing, let’s eat. I’ll go check on her."

"Go on, go on."

Three-year friendship, Mina Lee naturally understood Toria Toole, knew the French kiss decided to fizzle out, and refrained from pushing.

Camden River gave her a helpless look, turned, and went to the kitchen.
