However, he didn’t tell them that Edmond could speak Chinese.
This resulted in Gu Jin Yan’s conversations with Helian Xi being clearly overheard by Edmond.
So, you see, Huo Jincheng’s scheming nature is quite real.
He managed to ss with everyone a bit.
Qin Shihuai lived up to Huo Jincheng’s expectations by losing all the chips he had in hand.
He silently swore never to play cards with this couple again.
He genuinely thought he could make a coback.
But the result...
"Uncle, I won a lot of money!" Lu Xingzhi ran over to Huo Jincheng excitedly. "I think bridge is more fun than mahjong, and it tests your intelligence more too."
When Qin Shihuai heard "test your intelligence," he felt sothing was off.
Like what?
He felt as if he was too dumb.
"As long as you’re happy. Bridge has already been included as an official event in the National College Student Gas. It is indeed an intellectual activity," Huo Jincheng said, giving Qin Shihuai a deliberate glance.
Qin Shihuai pretended not to notice.
"If there’s a chance, I’ll participate too," Lu Xingzhi was quite interested.
"Little Zhi Liao, it’s fine if you think bridge is fun. Could we perhaps drop the ’intellectual’ part?" It sounds so disheartening!
"Qin, what are you saying? Don’t bully Lu Lu, she’s still young. You can bully Olston instead." Amanda sashayed over nonchalantly, not minding losing money since she had more than she could spend.
As long as it buys fun, who cares!
Qin Shihuai glared at her with grievance. Could she not be so blunt with her words?
He really wanted to stay far away from Amanda, she was the reason he lost so badly.
The key was, he didn’t dare to bully either of them!
Oh crap!!
Life!
It’s just so frustrating.
Huo Jincheng raised an eyebrow at Qin Shihuai, "Wanna pick on ? If not, we can always head to the boxing ring when we get back."
Qin Shihuai: "Haha... no need. You’re the big brother, let’s forget the boxing ring."
anwhile, over there, Helian Xi had already lost ten rounds in a row.
She was practically in tears of frustration.
"Little Zhi Liao, please co to my rescue!" Helian Xi called out as she saw Lu Xingzhi walking over, grabbing her hand and looking at her eagerly.
"No worries, I won money, I’ll share with you whatever you lost." Lu Xingzhi was generous, but she wasn’t keen to give too much to the other two! "Your brother won too, you know!"
"Thanks to Little Zhi Liao’s fortune," Helian Yi acknowledged, knowing he was still the weak link.
If it were their third brother, Qin Shihuai and Amanda would have lost even worse.
"It’s fine, I’ll just let my brother cover for ." Naturally, Helian Xi didn’t want Lu Xingzhi to share her winnings, she’d rather have Lu Xingzhi pocket more cash!
"Helian Xi, do you think my money grows on trees?" Helian Yi wasn’t exactly unwilling, just puzzled by her logic.
"I’ll cover you," Gu Jin Yan interjected at the right mont.
"I don’t want you to!" Helian Xi’s ears turned red; ever since Gu Jin Yan confessed, she couldn’t face him directly.
"What’s going on with you two?" Helian Yi finally noticed sothing was up.
"Nothing’s going on with us," Helian Xi insisted, "Ah, let’s play Fight the Landlord another day!"
"I’m chasing Xiao Xi," Gu Jin Yan confessed with no intention of hiding. "Brother Yi, I’ve liked Xiao Xi for a long ti."
"Chasing Xiao Xi? You’re both still young!" Helian Yi was still processing everything.
