Chapter 1758
Burning Passion: Love Never Die
âBlair, let me drink that for you. I have a better capacity for alcohol than you do.â
âOh thereâs no need. Itâs just beer; there is very low alcohol content in it.â Blair shook her head.
The boy sitting next to them burst out laughing when he heard the proposal.
âJoslyn, youâre one to talk! Look at the three glasses of beer in front of you. You havenât even finished
your own portion yet.â
The game progressed quite rapidly and pretty soon, the table in front of the eight players was full of
glasses and bottles of beer. Those who hadnât taken part in the game helped them open the bottles and
fill the glasses. Some of them were beginning to lose their senses now.

Blair thought that after her third call, no one else would call her anymore. One important reason behind
that was that she hadnât kept in touch with her old friends for long ever since she began to study
abroad. However, much to her surprise, she still received quite a number of calls after that. Maybe
some of her followers found the game interesting and were just calling her for fun. However, what
annoyed her the most was that some of the calls were from completely strangers who had deliberately
pulled a prank on her. Most probably, they were the followers of the other seven contestants.
Now, there were several tall glasses of beer waiting for her. She threw a sideways glance at Joslyn,
who was busy herself with her own portion of beer. Helpless, she asked the others, âGuys, can we take
a break first?â
âOf course. But I think there will be even more glasses waiting for you as the game goes on. Look at
Aby. Heâs set quite an example!â A girl gloated as she pointed to a wealthy boy sitting on the sofa.
About a dozen tall glasses were already placed in front of him and his phone didnât seem to be showing
any signs of dying down.
Compared to him, Blairâs situation was not that bad. But she was already feeling quite full. And if she
got drunk, it would have been additional trouble.
However, she had made the choice herself. She had volunteered to take part in this game, so no
matter how much she regretted her decision, she had to face the consequences. She picked up a glass
of beer resignedly and began to gulp it down. It didnât even feel that good anymore.
However, the trouble was short lived. Because the more they drank, the more excited the eight gamers
became. Loud music soon began to drift over from their table. Blair and Joslyn were singing at the top
of their Lungs. One of the songs they chose turned out to be a romantic duet. In her drunken moment,
Blair released all of her bottled up emotions through the song.
In the end, she finally had to send up a new post in her Moments.
âPlease, please. Iâve drunk eleven glasses already. I canât take another one. Donât call me anymore.â
There were several crying emojis after that and a few begging hands.
Normally, Blair wouldnât have asked for mercy in such a pathetic manner. But she was drunk now. She
was going to have no idea what she was doing later on. And she was already drinking her twelfth glass
which wasnât finished yet.
Blair had a few hundred WeChat friends. After she sent out the second post, a lot of people
commented below, saying that they were willing to come over and drink her glasses for her. Who would
have said no to free beer! Some of the boys even sent a private message to her, asking for her
location.
Blair browsed through the comments and replied, âNo, thanks. Itâs just a game. It will be over soon.â
She didnât want to involve anyone outside the group and certainly not boys she hadnât even talked to
ina long time.
She copied the sentence and also sent it to the boys who had texted her.
But very soon after that, she received Hartwellâs message.
âMy secretary just told me about your update. Donât drink anymore. Turn down the drinks. Iâm coming to
pick you and Joslyn up.â
She tilted her head and saw that Joslyn was lying on the sofa in a slightly drunken state. Her speech
was a bit slurred too. As the birthday girl, Joslyn had drunk more than Blair had. Blair gave her a slight
kick and asked, âDid your husband just text you?â
âYes. Heâs coming to pick us up.â
Blair sighed when she heard that. To be honest, she envied her friend a bit; Joslyn had a husband to
come pick her up in such situations. Blair felt that she herself was a poor bachelor. What was worse,
when
Hartwell picked them up, she would feel like the third wheel between him and Joslyn.
She suddenly thought of Wesley. âI wonder what heâs doing right now. He must be busy. He wonât even
know about my Moments, â she thought gloomily, letting out a heavy sigh.
She leaned her head on Joslynâs shoulder, watching the other guys chatting fervently under the
influence of the alcohol. Even she had become talkative due to the twelve glasses.
