"Not necessary, you can go ahead, I'll still be the winner," Jiutiao Meijie said confidently.
"How can a teacher bully her students," Akiko insisted as she put the orange back at the starting point.
Outside the kotatsu, a new group of four started the game.
Under the kotatsu, Dubian Che knelt, feeling so stifling hot he wanted to throw off the blanket at all costs.
Outside, above the snowy campsite, the snow continued to fall steadily.
"Kiyono, it's your turn again," Akiko placed the dice near Kiyono Lin.
Kiyono Lin picked up the dice, her expression serious.
It was bad enough before, but if she still rolled the same number in front of Jiutiao Meijie and had to do the sit-ups as punishment, it would be very embarrassing.
Carefully, with caution, she rolled the dice.
"Sigh," her crystal-clear, rosy lips gently exhaled a breath.
It was the result that meant nothing happened.
"Jiutiao," Akiko picked up the dice and looked at Jiutiao Meijie with expectant eyes.
