Chapter 156


    That was what Eugene had always wanted to know, but their rtionship had never been more than


    just friends. To him, she was like a boat aimlessly traveling on the sea. Desperate, he couldn’t wait to


    get close to her, but since she wasn’t making her move, he decided to pick up his pace. Soon, Olivia let


    out a sigh as she set her eyes on somewhere far away, seemingly looking back on her past. After a


    while, she said, “s! I had a tough time when I first got there. I was unfamiliar with the ce and


    worse, I even ran into a bunch of thugs who surrounded and tried to mess with me. At that time, I was


    pregnant for two months, so can you imagine how scared I was? I was defenseless and vulnerable


    against these people, but as I thought fate had caught up with me, a senior of mine came to my rescue.


    Besides that, when I was diagnosed with signs of possible pretermbor, he was the one who helped


    me deliver my child safely. So, North and I are actually in his debt. Subsequently, he offered us a ce


    to stay at his clinic. After I became my master’s disciple, our life was finally stable from that point


    onward. In fact, my senior was the one who had taken care of me and taught me everything I needed


    to know, especially when my master was away in the following year. Sometimes, I didn’t even get to


    see him for months.”


    Upon hearing Olivia’s story, Eugene finally understood why Olivia and her son always mentioned her


    senior. No wonder they always talk about him. I didn’t know he’s so important to them. “So, your hard


    work has finally paid off now, I guess.”

    “Well, at least I no longer have to put up with anyone else who gets on my nerves,” Olivia said with a


    smile while Eugene only silently pondered. Well, she is technically right because she doesn’t care if I’m


    not happy with her anyway.


    “Here. A toast to your hard work!”


    “That’s worth a toast. You did well, Olivia,” Oliviaughed and said.


    Yeah, you did well, Olivia, Eugene thought to himself.


    As they continued to drink, the red wine bottle was soon getting low. At the same time, Eugene began


    to feel more excited the more he drank. “How about we y a little game?”


    “What game?” Olivia tilted her head and gazed at the man.


    “Do you have some dice at home?”


    Olivia was happy when she heard that suggestion because a game would at least spare her the


    awkward moment. “Are we going to y a game with a dice? I got it. Just give me a moment!” Not long


    after, she returned with four dices and a dice cup. “Here you go. So, how are we going to y this


    game?” At that moment, Eugene had already prepared three sses of wine and ced one in the


    center of the table while the other two were put on each side in front of them. Then, he looked at her


    and exined, “We’re going to see which of us gets a bigger number after rolling the dice. If you don’t


    think you stand a winning chance, you could finish the wine and roll the dice again, but if you think you


    do, we’ll reveal the dice right away. The loser will have to finish all three sses of wine. Otherwise, he


    or she could choose to reveal a secret instead as an alternative to drinking.”


    Meanwhile, Olivia looked at Eugene, thinking that the game seemed like a good way to kill time, so she


    agreed to go along. In fact, she wasn’t even scared of drinking and ying games. In the first round,


    her dice revealed seven pips, but when she shifted her eyes to Eugene, she noticed hiscent


    look, believing that her number was smaller than his. Therefore, she chose to finish her own wine


    before continuing.


    In the next round, Olivia’s dice showed four pips, feeling irritated because the number only got smaller


    and smaller with each time she tried. Soon, Eugene looked at her calmly and asked with a smile. “Are


    we going to reveal them now?” Olivia asked herself, What else can I do? “Reveal the dice!” However, it


    turned out that Eugene’s dice were at five, which was just slightly more than Olivia’s number.


    Therefore, Olivia’s eyes fell upon Eugene, carefully contemting his motive. I may be a heavyweight,


    but I’d get drunk drinking at this rate. While Eugene thought he’d lose this time, Olivia got a result with


    a smaller number than he did. As the game continued, both of them became obsessed with the game


    in which Olivia lost every time. In fact, the red wine on the table was all finished by her.


    In the subsequent round, Eugene’s dice showed eleven pips. As he thought he’d finally lose, he was


    once again surprised by his own lucky winning streak. Although it seemed that fate would be on his


    side again this time, he decisively finished the ss of red wine that was ced before him.
