Chapter 8 – Game Punishment

Sure enough, there are no straight men in Kaleido.

--

Only now did Pei Tingsong discover the origins of this sweater. He supported his forehead and looked at Fang Juexia. His eyes widened a little, and he made an expression that clearly said— [you explain this to me].

However, Fang Juxia was still immersed in searching his memory, and only snapping out of it after a long while had passed. "It seems it really was sent by a support station."

I'll kill this person. Pei Tingsong could only pretend that nothing had happened and forcefully changed the topic by requesting, "Ziyan Ge, help me get some potato chips ba."

"If you want to eat something ah, it's not that easy." He Ziyan crossed his two long legs and stated, "You have to play a game. You can eat if you win, and you will be punished if you lose."

"What's the punishment?" Ling Yi suddenly grew spirited.

Lu Yuan had a burst of inspiration, and exclaimed, "How about a kiss on the mouth?"

The other five people: ….

[Hahahahahaha Teacher Lu Yuan, if you can say it, then go ahead and perform it live!]

[How made winds!]

[WOC kiss on the mouth hahahahaha! Is our little K group this open? What are all of you usually doing in the dormitory!]

Ling Yi narrowed his eyes and pinched Lu Yuan's face as he teased, "You're afraid it's not gay enough ba?"

Lu Yuan pinched his face in return. "If I'm gay, then you're a 0."

"I'm Ling Yi!"

Lu Yuan asked, "Are you a 1 or 0?"

He Ziyan immediately added, "If he's a 1, I don't believe it."

Xiao Pei commented, "How is he a 1?"

Jiang Miao quickly intervened to mediate the dispute, "Okay, okay, don't keep going."

[The little team: My situation is too hard!]

[What kind of gay group crosstalk is this ah hhhh]

[01: in three days I'm going to k*ll all of you]

[Sure enough, there are no straight men in Kaleido.]

Jiang Miao said, "If there's going to be a punishment… To be fair, everyone should write down a punishment, and the loser will have to draw out one of them and then perform it, how's that?"

"Okay!"

[Whoa, whoa, whoa, I want to see what punishment everyone wrote!]

The director arranged for these things behind the camera, and then said, "Everyone has one minute, so come and write your punishment down in front of the camera ba. Remember to show it when you finish writing it oh."

Fang Juexia was a bit distracted as he thought about this punishment matter when he suddenly heard everyone talking about him.

"We have to agree first, we can't have any games that involve arithmetic ah." Lu Yuan took a French fry and stuffed it in his mouth. "Otherwise, Teacher Fang will curbstomp us all."

Once he said that, everyone actually sighed deeply at the same time.

[Hahahahaha, what should have come out, still came out]

[Will the human-shaped calculator Fang Juexia make his reappearance in the world??!]

[?? New fan is completely confused, begging for an explanation!]

He Ziyan laughed and said, "I can still recall the fear of being dominated by Wangzai Milk."

[I knew it! Wangzai Milk was really too funny!]

Ling Yi clapped his hands and explained to the online audience, "Let's go. So, previously for one of our group's activities, our Juexia participated in a variety show, and it seems that b station has a clip from it. At that time, there was a segment that was all math, the kind where the subsequent problems just kept getting harder and harder. However, our Juexia, with his amazing calculation abilities, won the grand prize: a car full of Wangzai Milk. Yes, a whole car."

[WTF? A whole car?]

[Why is it so dumb hahahaha]

[In the early days, Juexia really did go on a lot of strange variety shows for exposure, hugging my Xia~]

"How long did it take for us to finish drinking all of it?" Lu Yuan drew close to ask.

Jiang Miao thought about it. "A month or two ba. At that time, the only designated drink for us after we returned home was Wangzai Milk."

[Hahaha, six young people gathering together to drink milk! About to die from laughter!]

[Wangzai, collect money from the viewers!]

He Ziyan grinned and showed his shiny, white teeth. "I remember that during that time, Juexia would use milk to stew tong sui every day for us to eat. Ah, right, explaining a bit to new fans, Juexia grew up in Guangzhou."

[AHHHHHHHHHH plgg and I are from the same place! I'M SO HAPPY!]

Ling Yi, as his roommate, added, "But I heard that Juexia's mother is from the North."

Juexia nodded and stated, "Shandong."

[The most beautiful children are North-South mixed bloods! No wonder!]

[What the hell are North-South mixed bloods ah hahahahaha the sisters can flatter!]

Lu Yuan shook his head. "Anyway, after that incident, we start to shiver anytime we see Wangzai Milk."

Speaking of the past, Pei Tingsong thought it was funny. When they were on that program, the sponsors probably hadn't expected that such difficult questions could be worked out, so they had set up that kind of award. They hadn't expected Fang Juexia to really solve them.

[At that time, Juexia was also slandered because of this…]

Seeing this sentence, Pei Tingsong also recalled the other things that had happened at that time.

It was a small program, not very popular, so it didn't get much of a response after it was broadcast. However, Fang Juexia's anti-fans would never miss any opportunity to mock him. At that time, they said that it was scripted, that he had cheated, and had even written a lot of such small pieces about it. If Pei Tingsong hadn't been there on the show to witness what had actually happened, he would have been pretty much brainwashed by them.

Fang Juexia looked cold, but to the people close to him, his silence seemed more like a slow reaction on his part. He didn't have much expression on his face and spoke quietly, not having much confidence in defending himself. "Wangzai Milk is very delicious ah."

[AHHHHHHHHH, Juexia is too milky today! Sure enough, no matter how alpha he is on stage, he becomes very milky offstage!]

[The way he trailed off was too cute ba!]

Pei Tingsong glanced at him and noticed that once Fang Juexia had finished saying this sentence, he had gone to Ling Yi to verify whether Wangzai Milk was good or not.

This guy was so strange; he was the strangest person he had ever seen.

Everyone talked and laughed, and driven by Jiang Miao, they began to prepare for the game. When writing out the punishments, everyone went to one side by themselves. Fang Juexia leaned over on the sofa with his back to it and thought for a long time.

He really couldn't think of any good punishment.

Ling Yi's mind was fast and he was the first to rush in front of the camera, where he then secretly wrote down the words, "special dark drink". He was elated to show it to everyone. Lu Yuan followed after him to write a sentence, "copy a little clip of someone doing the coarse flower hand."

[If there is a punishment, there must be a special x]

[Hahahahaha little clip of coarse flower hand, killing people and punishing the heart ah, Teacher Yuan!]

[Yuanyuan is really not worried about lifting a stone to hit his own feet]

Jiang Miao was kind enough to just write "20 handstand push-ups". Pei Tingsong casually wrote down "send an ugly photo to the groupchat." When it came to Fang Juexia, he really didn't know what he should write. Seeing that the given time was coming to an end, he had to quickly put his pen to paper, then he folded the note with the words "elephant trunk game" written on it and put it in the punishment box.

[The little captain and Juexia really are the angel team la, they completely don't know how to give people a hard time.]

[Send an ugly photo to the groupchat hahahahaha, Pinot Tree Supreme, you really are 19 years old!]

[I'm still looking more forward to our Huohuo's idea. After all, he's a wolf in sheep's clothing hhhh]

He Ziyan stepped forward, wrote down a line of characters, and showed it to the camera. His bandmates were ordered to turn around and weren't able to look at the screen during this period. However, when they turned around, they found the barrage still messaging about it.

[Shit! It's still Fire Ge who can play!!!]

[Fire Ge is too good at this hahahaha, looking forward to the punishment!]

[respect Fire Ge!!!]

What kind of a punishment was it? Fang Juexia was curious and envious at the same time. Interesting people always wrote down punishments that were also interesting.

The set of games began. At first, it was simple, with You Draw and I Guess, then Guess the Name of the Song, and so on. However, Pei Tingsong didn't know what kind of misfortune he was suffering from, but that night, he lost again and again. From the total of six punishments, he did three all by himself. First, the handstand push ups, and then the dizzying elephant trunk game. He was still dizzy when he drank Ling Yi's special drink, made of soy sauce, vinegar, honey, mustard, sesame oil, and milk.

"Is this really giving me a welcome for my new arrival? This is simply looking forward to my sudden death the very day I move in ba." Pei Tingsong couldn't stop coughing.

[Hahahahaha the band tyrant also has a day like today! It's really the heavens that have eyes hahahahaha]

[How hard to drink is Yiyi's drink ah hahaha, Xiao Pei already poured himself a large can of coke!]

[Finally, we have something that all us sisters can get — Ling Yi's special drink that Xiao Pei drank!]

[You guys look at the expressions around hahahaha]

Pei Tingsong still felt nauseous and wanted to grab some more drinks to make the taste of the special drink disappear. He stretched his neck and looked around, but it seemed that there were no unopened drinks left in front of him anymore. Although Fang Juexia had a cold face, he was also very observant. While everyone was still immersed in the happy atmosphere of the game, only he realized what Pei Tingsong was looking for. After only two seconds of hesitation, he pushed the can of orange soda in front of him towards Pei Tingsong.

Seeing this move of his, Pei Tingsong turned his head to look at him.

Fang Juexia mouthed silently—haven't drunk from it.

Thinking of the words that Cheng Qiang had said to them before the livestream, Pei Tingsong went ahead and picked up the soda can. Fundamentally, both of them actually didn't have much of a band camaraderie with each other, so he automatically regarded Fang Juexia's action as a kind of "fanservice."

[Xiao Pei is drinking Juexia's drink!]

[Wearing Gege's clothes and drinking Gege's drink, Xiao Pei is awesome!]

[Cult CP fans, don't look at basic human behavior with rotten eyes la. Just obediently watch the game, okay?]

The barrage burst into a frenzy, and the director's voice sounded out again, "Then start the last game. You guys can draw it yourself ba."

With that, the staff took out the game box. Pei Tingsong saw it, put down the soda can, and rolled up his sleeves. "I'll draw. They have been the ones drawing for all the previous games, and I must have always been losing because of this."

He Ziyan laughed and teased, "Because why? Because of philosophy?"

[Hahahaha, Fire Ge is great! Does the youth study philosophy?]

[Hahahaha, Xiao Pei's daily philosophy study joke has been cued]

Ling Yi declared, "Just won't let him draw!"

Jiang Miao grabbed Ling Yi's hand and said, "You let him draw ba."

[Hahaha, I've discovered that the words Three Water says the most every day are "You stop….that" and "You let him….ba" breaks my heart x]

Lu Yuan was bored and started popping his arm to the music. "Yeah, or else he won't admit that he's a game black hole."

"Who said that, I play games very well. It's these low-energy games that don't match me." Pei Tingsong's expression was completely defiant, but in Fang Juexia's eyes, the way he dragged out the words "very well" made him look like a stinky little kid.

"How about this: we let you draw, but if you lose again this time, during the punishment, we'll add the clip of you doing the flower hand move, how's that?"

Fang Juexia wanted to laugh; Lu Yuan was being really persistent about this clip.

Lu Yuan's carefully prepared punishment hadn't been used up until now, and internally, he was sighing and wringing his hands over it. Unexpectedly, there was Pei Tingsong who ran straight into it.

"Alright." Pei Tingsong didn't fear it at all, and directly put his hand into the game box. Fang Juexia quietly put a potato chip into his mouth as he stared at him, and a slightly bad premonition arose in his heart.

Snap, the chip broke in half.

His premonitions had always been very accurate.

Pei Tingsong had a straight-forward attitude as he stretched out his hand, drew a note out from the box, opened it, and looked at it.

The director said, "Give everyone a look at it too."

When the note was turned over, Pei Tingsong frowned in disbelief and asked, "Pass the candy wrapper. What is this ah?"

The barrage had already taken the lead in going crazy.

[AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH PASS THE CANDY WRAPPER! Is it the one where you suck the wrapper to stick it steady, then turn around as you keep going?!!!]

[Holy shit, I caught sight of this being played in another group before!!! Super exciting!!!]

[Passing around a tissue paper would be too effective ba, director Jiejie is awesome!!! Candy wrappers are so thin, it's equivalent to nothing being there aaah!]

[WOC don't dare to imagine the feel of the candy wrapper. I've broken out in goosebumps!]

[@Teacher Yuan, Teacher Yuan's dream of kissing all his bandmates has come true]
