Chapter 124 Intimacy Game (Part One)
Apartment, hospital,pany.
Mary was back to her normal life, carefully hiding the scars in her heart, and showing a strong
attitude.
William had been away from the apartment for a few days, and it was as if they had returned to the
kind of rtionship they first had. Even at thepany, Mary seldom talked to him.
If there was anything that could make Mary feel surprised, it was when she received consecutive
flowers on her table.
From one flower on the first day to eleven flowers on the second day, twenty-two flowers on the
third day, thirty-three flowers on the third day....
Every day, when Mary arrived at thepany, whether early orte, the flowers were already lying
on the table.
It was not that she did not guess who sent the flowers, but after a week, he still had not shown
himself. Mary could only wait and see.
On Friday, Mary received a call from Victor, who had not shown up for a long time. "Mary, are you
free tomorrow?" asked Victor straightforwardly.
"Well..." Mary thought for a moment and nodded."Yes. Why?"

"Nothing important," answered Victor while smiling. "Can I invite you out to have fun?"
"Have fun..." Mary sighed. She was not in the mood to go out and have fun. "I..."
"If you refuse, I will be sad," Victor interrupted her and put on a pathetic voice. "I have been a little
depressed recently."
Mary frowned. She suddenly recalled thest time she had seen him. He was in the CEO''s office
and it appeared that he and William were quarreling.
"How are you doing recently?" Since Victor announced his withdrawal from the entertainment
industry, William had taken strict measures to banish him from the industry. So far, there had been
no news about him.
"Staying at home all day long is really boring," said Victor casually.
"Then, can you go out?"
"Of course, I''m not under house arrest." Victor added happily, "So you agree to go out with me
tomorrow?"
"Well..." Mary frowned and thought for a while. ''''Okay.''1
"Okay," replied Victor, "I''ll pick you up tomorrow morning."
"Sure."
Early the next morning, the two set forth.
They had not seen each other for a long time but Victor had not changed much. He still had the
smile he always had. He wore casual clothes and a cap, which he lowered from time to time to
cover his face.
"How inconvenient," said Victor with a sigh. "Do you mind me hiding my face?"
"No, not at all," Mary said, shaking her head.
"You''ve lost weight again, Mary."
"Really? It''s good then," said Mary with an awkward smile.
Victor raised his eyebrows and put on a smile. "Let''s go. I''ll take you to eat delicious food today. You
need to eat more. Only plump people are cute."
"Ha ha." Mary smiled faintly.
"How about hotpot?" Victor asked. "It''s a little cold today and a warm hotpot seems nice."
"Sounds good," said Mary with a smile. They went to a hotpot restaurant, only to find it packed with
people who had the same idea. They eventually found a table by the window and sat down.
"What are you going to do from now on?" Mary asked while eating. "Isn''t it a pity that you won''t be
an actor anymore?"
"A little," replied Victor with a deste smile. "After all, I have been in this industry for many years.
But, I might as well quit instead of staying in a ce I don''t like."
"I see. Well, I don''t want to see any conflict between you and William. It''s good for you to leave AJ
Group and go to anotherpany. With your current reputation and influence, there must be a lot of
companies who want you. However, I don''t think there''s a need to quit the entertainment industry,"
said Mary thoughtfully.
"I know." Victor closed his eyes.
"Then you..."
"Well," Victor responded casually, taking some vegetable to eat, "I thought you said you didn''t like
people in the entertainment industry."
"But... Victor..." Hearing that, Mary was dumbfounded. Her hand froze midair and her mouth opened
slightly, not knowing how to react.
Now, she really could not respond to him. "Eat more." It seemed that Victor did not care about her
reaction at all. Instead, he stared at the hotpot on the table and said, "It''s already cooked. Eat it
quickly!"
"You too." With a sigh, Mary lowered her head to eat.
"Shall we go shopping this afternoon?" Victor continued, "Just like normal men and women. Eat
snacks, buy whatever we want, andstly, go for a walk in the park."
"Sure."
There were peopleing and walking on the pedestrian street. Victor was so happy that he ran
back and forth beside Mary.
"Back then, Jorge wouldn''t allow me to go out randomly. It''s so good to live a normal life!"
"Yes." Mary looked at him and nodded. It was fine with her as long as he was happy.
"You can''t miss it. If you stop, I''ll give you an iPhone 6! How about that? Come on! Join us!" All of a
sudden, a loud speaker resonated on the square, apanied by a burst of cheers.
Mary looked in the direction of the sound and saw a temporary stage surrounded by people. The
host was working really hard to invite people for the event.
"Today, our branch store opens. Anyone who signs up for today''s activity will receive a
commemorative prize! In addition, the third cer will receive an LCD TV, an SLR for the second
cer, and two iPhone 6s for the first cer! Do you want them or not? If yes,e up the stage
and win them!"
"Yes!"
"Okay!"
There was another cheer in the square, and Mary''s eyes suddenly lit up. She pulled Victor and
squeezed through the crowd. "Let''s go and have a look at the iPhone6!"
Victor shrugged. He was supposed to say, ''It''s just an iPhone. I can buy it for you'' but kept quiet
instead when he saw Mary''s excited expression.
"There are so many opportunities and prizes. What are you waiting for? Come and sign up!"
Mary pushed through the crowd and read the rules carefully in front of the stage.
ording to the game rules, the man must carry the woman from the starting point to the finishing
point, then the woman must take a chocte bar before they went back to the starting point. Both
men and women must eat the chocte bars. The shorter the remaining bar, the higher the score.
After eating, the first group to ring the bell won.
"It is an intimacy game..." Mary said as she curled her lips. "Are you afraid? I can''t kiss you
anyway," Victor said with a smile and added, "But the prize is very nice!"
"Well..." Looking at two eye-catching iPhone 6s on the stage, Mary made up her mind. "But two
people have to participate. Do you want to participate?"
"Sure." Victor nodded. ''If you want, I''ll be with you,'' Victor thought.
With a cheering sound, Mary pulled Victor and made her way towards the registration table.
"Thank you for your participation," said the host loudly with a smile. "Wow! The whole stage is
crowded with people who want to join. How about this? Five groups of people will participate in a
round of the contest. The group who takes the first ce in each round will y in the finals!"
"Sure!"
"Wooo!"
"A contest!"
Mary and Victor were in thest round. They watched the first few rounds as they ran back and forth
the stage. Some fell to the ground because theycked physical strength to carry their partners.
Looking at them, Mary could not help but burst intoughter.
"Ha ha!" Mary wasughing so hard, she clutched her belly. She said to Victor, "You have to carry
me on your backter. It will be embarrassing if you fall down!"
"Don''t worry," said Victor with a smile. "Do I look worried?"
Mary just looked at him.
When it was finally their turn, Mary felt a little nervous especially when she saw a burly man
standing next to her.
The man standing on Mary''s right seemed to be a little less than 200 pounds. When she looked at
him, she felt disappointed.
