Shen Cheng pouted cutely and innocently, making it hard for Shi Yu to refuse her.
"Alright, just one game."
Although he agreed, Shi Yu’s principles were still strong; he only allowed her to play one game.
Knowing he would compromise, Shen Cheng curved her lips in a smile, "Mhm!"
Her voice was so soft, it could melt even the coldest of hearts.
Shen Cheng took a seat, and they immediately made room for her, keeping a respectful distance.
They weren’t meeting Shi Yu for the first time and knew well about his temperament.
He never allowed anyone to touch his belongings, let alone his woman, fearing even an extra glance.
Seeing that they were sensible, Mr. Shi didn’t say anything, set aside his alcohol glass, got up, and sat behind Shen Cheng.
"Playing cards with sister-in-law for the first time, if we win it counts for sister-in-law, if we lose it’s on us."
Hearing someone say this, Mr. Shi looked displeased, "What, do you think my woman can’t handle losing?"
A young master bro joked, "Mr. Shi, what are you talking about? We just want sister-in-law to have some fun. Besides, how much can we lose in one round that Mr. Shi can’t afford?"
Mr. Shi remained silent.
Someone said ’deal the cards’, and the attendant approached, skillfully distributing the initial cards.
Shen Cheng didn’t usually play cards, but after watching a few rounds, she had picked up a bit.
The game they were playing was ’Five Card’, simply put, it involves playing with spades, hearts, clubs, and diamonds using 28 playing cards.
Each person gets an initial card, which can only be revealed when deciding the winner.
Starting from the second card dealt, each subsequent card requires betting, led by the player with the highest card face.
People place bets, and those who want to continue playing choose to match the bet.
If someone feels their hand is weak and they don’t want to continue, they can choose to fold and wait for the round to end, losing any chips they have previously bet.
The attendant began dealing the second card; Shen Cheng got a Red Heart 8, while the others got higher cards than hers.
Someone started raising the bet, but Shen Cheng didn’t fold and began to match the bet.
Following that, the third and fourth cards were dealt, no one folded and the game continued.
Shen Cheng glanced at their cards, not a bad set at all.
Her own cards weren’t bad either; besides the face-down card, her other cards were: Red Heart 8, Red J, Red 10, Heart 9.
This meant if her face-down card was either Red Heart 7 or Red King, it would be a straight flush.
When it was time to reveal cards, three players had a bad set and folded immediately.
Except for Shen Cheng, there was one more player who didn’t fold.
He revealed his face-down card, a Spade 10; his other cards were Spade 7, 8, 9, J.
This meant he had a straight flush!
"Sister-in-law, it’s your turn to reveal your card."
"Mine is definitely bigger than yours!" Shen Cheng’s confidence, no one knew where it came from...
"Sister-in-law, if your card is a King, you’ve won. But I think the chances are more likely it’s a 7!" that person teased.
Shen Cheng said, and coolly slammed her face-down card on the table, then slowly moved her hand away...
"Oh shoot, it really is a King!"
"Sister-in-law, your luck is incredible..."
True enough, her face-down card was the Red King!
Shen Cheng couldn’t help but laugh out loud, "Haha! I won!"
