Chapter 58 Truth or Dare

I was skeptical about the conditions he mentioned.

The guy lowered his head a bit and joked, "That's private. Only my girlfriend gets to know. If you agree to be my girlfriend for a week, I'll tell you."

He sounded playful but still looked classy, not sleazy at all.

Since I started this, I stayed calm. "Is that really your request?"

"Why? Is it hard for you?" He had a twinkle in his eye.

"Not really." I glanced back; everyone in the booth was watching me, excited and gossiping. Only Ethan, leaning on the sofa, had an unreadable expression under the neon lights.

'What would Ethan look like without his mask?' The thought made me feel a sudden wave of sadness.

"Alright, I agree." As soon as I said that, the guy's hand naturally rested on my shoulder.

He asked, "Where are your friends?"

I stiffened and pointed to the nearby booth.

He smiled slightly. "Well, since you're playing a game, as your boyfriend, I should join in."

He led me inside, my steps stiff, and after a few steps, I couldn't help but ask softly, "So, what color is it?"

He turned and smiled at me, making me uneasy. Just when I thought he wouldn't answer, he said, "Dark gray, boxer briefs, size M."

I thought, 'I just asked about the color; did he really need to be so detailed? Now I have an image of him in dark gray boxer briefs in my mind.'

Everyone in the booth was looking at us.

"What color?" Bella's surprised look probably came from the fact that I managed to bring someone over, which seemed unbelievable.

I lowered my head, avoiding Ethan's gaze, and whispered, "Dark gray."

As soon as I said that, Ethan suddenly stood up, and Oliver and Frank followed.

The guy beside me took his hand off my shoulder.

Sensing the tension, I thought a fight was about to break out, and my heart tightened. But the guy beside me raised his hand and high-fived each of them, and they all ended up laughing and hugging. "You arrived just in time," Ethan said with a smile.
