Hearing about the bet, Pei Yanzhi's eyebrows twitched slightly, his brow bone casting a knife-like shadow under the overhead light.
He looked at Shi Wu with a meaningful gaze.
"You've already won against me twice before, and the stakes haven't even been cashed in yet. If you win against me a third time..."
Shi Wu said in a playful tone, "What's wrong, Mr. Pei? Are you afraid you can't give me what I want?"
On the surface, both of them seemed calm, but it appeared they were secretly competing.
"Whatever you want, I'll give it to you." Including his life.
Pei Yanzhi made a 'please' gesture and led her to the VVIP room.
The gameplay in this room was vastly different from outside.
Shi Wu immediately saw the gun used for 'Heartbeat Roulette'.
In this life, Pei Yanzhi's world and the original female lead's world had already been separated.
But she suddenly wanted to know what would happen if she played Heartbeat Roulette with Pei Yanzhi.
Thinking of this, she reached out and pointed at the gun.
"You want to play this?" Pei Yanzhi was a little surprised, then took the gun out of the display case.
He spun the roulette and began to explain the rules.
"This roulette can hold bullets or miniature syringes. As for what's injected into the syringes, you can choose freely."
As he spoke, his finger gave a light flick, and the roulette emitted a crisp, mechanical spinning sound.
"Ladies first." Pei Yanzhi placed the gun, as well as the ammunition and syringes, in front of Shi Wu.
She didn't even look at the bullets; the bullet game was too boring.
The syringes were more interesting.
Her slender fingers gently caressed the syringes, the words on them intensely stimulating the darkness within her heart.
"1 Hour..." Shi Wu's pink lips parted slightly as she read the name.
The system silently explained it to her in her mind.
【The person shot will fall unconscious for one hour. Within that hour, the winner can do anything to her.】
Interesting.
"Suffocation..."
【It's the feeling of being on the verge of death. The recovery time is uncertain, and the soul might even be drawn out of the body, constantly testing the boundaries of death.】
Oh?
"Sting..."
【It's like thousands of needles pricking the body. It hurts, but the body can withstand it. However, it's extremely tormenting. The recovery time is uncertain; it could be a few hours or many days.】
Hmm, she didn't like this one.
Shi Wu's fingertip stopped on the last syringe.
It had no name.
Shi Wu looked up at Pei Yanzhi.
"Mr. Pei, what is this?"
Pei Yanzhi explained, "This... is newly developed from the lab. Injected into the body, it will make one unconditionally love the other person. The recovery time is uncertain, and it's still in the experimental stage, so it hasn't been named."
Click, click.
Just as Pei Yanzhi was about to say something more, he saw Shi Wu had already loaded the unnamed syringe into the roulette.
"Miss Shi, why don't you... reconsider?"
Pei Yanzhi was quite interested in the drug's effect, but it was still in the experimental stage, and the side effects were unknown. He was afraid of harming Shi Wu.
At this moment, Shi Wu had already aimed the gun at her heart.
"Mr. Pei, can we start?"
This scene stimulated Pei Yanzhi's adrenaline to surge wildly.
She was truly both beautiful and daring.
Every move she made felt like a wild dance on his heartstrings.
"Alright."
The first shot was empty.
Shi Wu put the gun down.
"Mr. Pei, it's your turn."
Pei Yanzhi chose '1 Hour' for his first shot.
He actually wanted to be shot.
What would she do to him within an hour?
The surveillance cameras in the room had no blind spots. It should be very interesting to watch what happened during that hour later.
Pei Yanzhi's first shot was empty.
Now it was Shi Wu's turn.
At this point, there were two types of agents in the gun, greatly increasing the odds.
And the man standing opposite her had a flushed neck, with veins popping out.
He seemed to be eagerly anticipating her being shot.
No matter which one, it excited him greatly.
Shi Wu toyed with the gun, then aimed it at her heart.
After a muffled gunshot.
Her body went limp and she collapsed to the ground.
"Miss Shi!" Pei Yanzhi rushed forward in a panic and caught her in his arms.
He then immediately checked the roulette.
She had been hit by the unnamed new product.
Pei Yanzhi frantically called the lab.
The call connected instantly, and everyone in the lab stopped what they were doing, listening to Pei Yanzhi speak.
"What's going on with the new product? Why does a person faint after injection? Haven't you conducted multiple tests?!"
If anything happened to Shi Wu, he would blow up the lab.
That was the lab he maintained with hundreds of millions of funds each year.
"That's impossible. We've conducted human trials many times, and there's never been a situation like this..."
The person in charge of the lab was already drenched in sweat.
Just as Pei Yanzhi was about to ask something else, his wrist was suddenly enveloped by a warm palm.
He looked down and saw Shi Wu gazing at him with an infatuated expression.
He silently put down his phone, his angry voice instantly transforming into a gentle tone.
"Miss Shi, are you alright?"
Shi Wu's hands slowly climbed up his arms until they hooked around his neck.
She lifted her head, her cheek close to him.
"Yanzhi, can I now claim the rewards for winning against you the first two times?"
Yanzhi...
He loved it when she called him that.
Especially when she called him that from so close.
His heart was about to burst.
"Alright, what do you want?"
Pei Yanzhi's hands were pressing hard against the ground, all his strength clenched in his fists. He was trying to control himself.
Because, in this position, he really wanted to pull her into his arms.
Shi Wu's fingers gently pointed to her cheek.
"The first reward, kiss my cheek."
Was this... the reward she wanted?
His heart was beating so fast.
Was it really not a reward for himself?
His mind felt like countless fireworks were exploding. Before he could react, the woman's cheek was already pressed against his lips.
Pei Yanzhi:!!!!
Deadly!
So soft, so fragrant.
It was just a fleeting touch, and his mind had already started naming their children.
"The second reward, I want you to..."
Shi Wu's finger moved to her lips.
"Kiss here."
In that instant, Pei Yanzhi's mind went blank.
His eyes were fixed on her lips.
Could he?
Could he really?
He lowered his head, she leaned closer.
As the wall clock chimed the hour, their lips met.
It was like an electric shock, countless currents spreading from their lips throughout their bodies.
In this moment, Pei Yanzhi could no longer control his inner emotions.
What gentlemanly demeanor?
He didn't care about any of it anymore; he only wanted Shi Wu.
