Edward's companion didn't show during the dinner, and I couldn't be more curious. Most of them are in their thirties, but they play like kids, especially Henry and Ashley.
After sitting for a while, Ashley suddenly clamored and said that he would play the game of "of course". Henry immediately agreed. Gavin had never heard of such a game. He asked, "What the hell is this?"
I said, "It's just a game. When two people ask each other questions, no matter how they ask, they can only say 'of course'. If you don't say so, it's a loss."
Gavin knitted his eyebrows and said, "What's the fun?"
I laughed at him for being left behind. He rolled his eyes at me and said, "It's true. As long as I don't listen and just say it, I'll be invincible."
"That's not true," I said, "You see it first!"
Henry was the one who proposed the first round. Unfortunately, the wine bottle was transferred to Edward, who was the most absent-minded person in the audience today. Henry asked Edward a question that seemed to be the last thing he wanted to answer at the moment, "Did you get dumped?"
After hearing that, Gavin almost spat out the beer he had drunk. He whispered in my ear, "How can he ask this d*mn question?"
"Of course, the question should be challengable and will be fun!"
Edward shrugged and pretended not to care. "Of course!"
Gavin stood beside me, praying that he would not be picked up for this game. I laughed at him and said, "Could it be that they know something about you?"
Gavin quickly denied. "No, absolutely not! I'm innocent, and a clean hand wants no washing!"
