Xu Qingfan was bewildered. He thought it might be Zhang Yiyi, since Xia Xiaoxiao wasn't that bored, and Xiao Ruawen hadn't had anything in her bowl yet.
But he never expected that the owner of the legs would indeed be Xiao Ruawen, who hadn't had anything in her bowl.
"Three... three circles."
"Ruan Wen, why did you throw away the joker again?"
After Xia Xiaoxiao's reminder, Xiao Ruawen rushed to check the exposed cards, and right after the two circles was indeed the three circles!
"Heh... Didn't pay attention; it's already played. I'll continue to win without jokers this round." She gave Xu Qingfan a warning look and chuckled awkwardly.
Xu Qingfan understood her warning look but had no intention of letting go.
No way, how could he easily let go of the leg he caught with skill?
However, Xu Qingfan was also afraid of causing a commotion, so he only clamped Ruawen's leg, without taking further actions.
"Winning without jokers isn't that easy. I started with two three circles; if I don't win this round, I'll stand on my head to wash my hair." When it was Xu Qingfan's turn to draw a card, he revealed his two three circles with pride.
After saying this, he played a useless sweet potato, and it was Zhang Yiyi's turn to draw and play.
"Brother, did you forget to draw a card just now?" Zhang Yiyi asked with a mouth-covering giggle after playing her card.
"Hahaha, Brother Chou Fan, you're the child bride now. Hurry up and stand on your head to wash your hair!" Xu Qingfan was still dumbfounded, while Xiao Ruawen already pointed at him in schadenfreude.
"Ah~ Wanning, why didn't you remind me?" Xu Qingfan complained, slapped his thigh, and reached under the table to grab Xiao Ruawen's foot.
Xiao Ruawen, who was laughing like a goose, suddenly choked.
[Did Brother Chou Fan really dare to do this!]
"Qingfan brother, I thought you had already drawn a card, duck~" Lin Wanning laughed too, even though she was supposed to be on Xu Qingfan's side.
Xu Qingfan had a bad habit of touching the upcoming Mahjong tiles before his turn, to feel their texture and determine the tile's appearance.
Since everyone was just playing casually, no one really minded his behavior until this time, when he faced the consequences.
Xiao Ruawen's laughter stopped, but everyone just assumed she was tired from laughing and didn't suspect anything until it was her turn to play: "Three circles... ah!"
Panicking for a moment, she discarded the joker card she just drew.
"Hahaha, Ruan Wen, why did you play the three circles again, duck?"
"Ruan Wen sticks to her word," Zhang Yiyi smirked.
"If I said I'd win without jokers, I'll do it, even if I have to hit eight points this time!" Xiao Ruawen restrained her urge to reclaim the three circles from the table and glared at Xu Qingfan.
The situation was already lively, and just at this moment, Xu Qingfan suddenly said nervously: "Bump!"
Five girls looked on with three big question marks over their heads—it was odd enough to play a joker, but now there's an expert that can bump?
Oh, Xu Qingfan's the child bride, so it's okay.
"Ah hahaha!" When they realized this, everyone laughed even louder.
"What are you looking at? My two three circles can't bump?" Xu Qingfan pushed his two three circles to the corner of the table and picked up the three circles Xiao Ruawen just played.
"Gee~ Bumping blindly, you didn't bump when Ruan Wen played the first time." Xia Xiaoxiao glared at him, annoyed because the playful dog's bump cost her a chance to draw.
Xu Qingfan ignored her and played a two of myriads after bumping, despite already having one, two, and three of myriads lined up. The child bride couldn't win, so he might as well bump more, hoping for a hidden harvest.
"Brother, if you manage to harvest a tile, you might not lose, oh, one myriad." Zhang Yiyi glanced at the tile stack, picked a card Xu Qingfan might bump.
"Bump!" Sure enough, Xu Qingfan did have it.
It was Zhang Yiyi's turn to draw again, and this time she hit the target: "Hehe, eight circles self-draw."
"Ah~ I had already called Hu; I should've won when I had those three circles, damn it!" Xiao Ruawen angrily flipped over her hand, revealing six, seven, eight circles, three red riches, two one circles, and five, seven myriads calling for a single six myriad.
"Ugh, my next prosperous tile could have made it!"
Seeing Zhang Yiyi drew the prosperous tile she needed, Xiao Ruawen got angrier, attempted to pinch Xu Qingfan's leg with her toes but failed, instead causing the dog man to get excited.
Xu Qingfan, using the excuse of slapping his thigh earlier, kept his left hand under the table. Noticing Xiao Ruawen's little movements, he held the girl's foot firmly.
Xu Qingfan directly put his hand into her toe gaps, skillfully tickling her sole.
"Pff.. cough cough cough!" Tickled, Xiao Ruawen couldn't help but want to laugh, but holding it in turned her laughter into coughing.
"Ruan Wen, what's wrong?"
"No problem, ha, winning and losing, Brother Qingfan gives massages, duck~ "
Xiao Ruawen awkwardly waved her hand: "Nothing, cough cough... nothing, just choked on my own saliva."
Everyone took her explanation lightly, nodded, and continued to the next Mahjong round.
Xiao Ruawen tried several times to escape Brother Chou Fan's devilish clutches, but whenever she exerted force, the dog man began tickling her sole, causing her "oddly" coughing uncontrollably several times, she dared not try again.
However, all Xu Qingfan could do was just this, unless he really intended to do something perverted with her foot?
Not to mention, she wore two layers of pants in winter; just violating a woman's will like that was something Xu wouldn't do.
