Bao Mingyuan wished he could tell her to scram.
Su Ruanruan pulled out the check Gu Ze had given her.
She flashed a beautiful smile showing her pearly whites: "Fortunately, I was already prepared."
Bao Jingyuan immediately took it to look.
She counted seven zeros.
Suddenly, she was at a loss for words.
She sat down on the other side of Xia Minglan and whispered, "Let her lose all her money later and teach her a lesson."
Xia Minglan gave a bitter smile.
She couldn’t afford to put up that much capital.
A check was placed in front of her.
It was from Bao Ziqi.
The amount was about the same as Su Ruanruan’s.
Xia Minglan felt warmth in her heart and gave Bao Ziqi a slight smile.
Rather tender indeed!
Bao Jingyan had moved a chair next to Su Ruanruan early on. Seeing this scene, he chuckled, "Ruanruan, look at him spending money on his fiancée so rightfully."
Su Ruanruan shuffled the tiles and said lightly, "Big brother can find someone to spend money on rightfully too."
Bao Jingyan said she had a sharp tongue.
Their back-and-forth had a very intimate vibe.
Xia Minglan felt a bit dazed.
Why did she feel that the relationship between Su Ruanruan and Ziqi’s elder brother... was unusual?
As she was thinking, Su Ruanruan gave her a sweet smile.
"Sister Minglan, you’ll have to go easy on me later!"
Xia Minglan managed a smile.
Of course, she wouldn’t go easy; she had taken a big fall tonight and was thinking of ways to recover.
Xia Minglan thought winning against Su Ruanruan would be a breeze.
Four players, being a steady third out of one.
But after a round, she realized she had thought too simply.
Where was Su Ruanruan a novice? Clearly, she was an expert among experts.
Sitting downstream from Su Ruanruan, she never won a single hand.
Not only that, but Su Ruanruan also specifically targeted the tiles she discarded.
Either an all-suit hand or pairs and triples!
After one round, Xia Minglan had lost quite a bit.
Bao Mingyuan and the old lady were slightly better off than her.
While drawing tiles, Bao Mingyuan asked Su Ruanruan, "Aren’t you being dishonest, kid, saying you can’t play?"
Su Ruanruan replied honestly, "I’ve only seen my mom play a few times."
Bao Mingyuan was surprised.
How could this kid play so well?
Su Ruanruan drew a tile with her delicate, fair hand.
Another all-suit hand.
As she collected the money, she smiled lightly, "Since I was a child, I’ve had a photographic memory! I generally remember where the shuffled tiles were placed earlier, and I also have a rough idea of which tiles went to which player."
The other three players at the table stiffened.
They struggled to keep playing a few more rounds... Su Ruanruan won by a landslide.
She counted the chips in front of her.
She had actually won with seven extra zeros.
She glanced surreptitiously at Xia Minglan.
She only saw that the miss’s complexion had turned pale, obviously unable to withstand the shock.
Usually, Su Ruanruan never cared to show off; she was merely teaching this miss a lesson.
This Miss Xia and Mrs. Bao were in cahoots, full of mean tricks.
Su Ruanruan only kept a little money for tea, giving the rest back to everyone.
Xia Minglan’s face burned with pain.
She wanted to seek Bao Ziqi’s help, but he appeared nonchalant.
As if accustomed to it.
She felt somewhat disappointed.
Fortunately, later the old lady actively called for a change of players, swapping the two young ladies for Bao Jingyan and Bao Ziqi.
Seeing the old lady’s attitude, it seemed she wanted to play all night.
Su Ruanruan was recently exhausted and had been entangled by Bao Jingyan till late last night.
She wanted to go back to her room to sleep.
Under the table, Bao Jingyan caught her hand.
With just one glance at him, she knew he wouldn’t let her leave.
To prevent others from seeing, Su Ruanruan could only sit back down beside him.
Bao Jingyan was in a very good mood, smilingly he said to Bao Ziqi, "I don’t play very well either, Ziqi, you’ll have to let me win later."
