E.P. frowned, but he looked at Yi Chengxuan and No.12 and suppressed his anger. “Do you know how to play Blackjack?”
Yue Xin still shook her head. “No.”
E.P. said, “There’s always the roulette wheel for odd-even numbers, right?” Yue Xin still shook her head.
E.P. frowned tightly. His already low patience was completely gone. Just as he was about to flare up, he heard Yue Xin ask him, “You look amazing. I definitely can’t win against you in a game that requires skills. Is there a game where luck can determine the winner?”
Her emotionless “you look amazing” instantly comforted E.P., who was about to explode.
E.P. muttered,” Tsk tsk, this little girl has a sweet tongue. She even knows how to praise me. I’ll tolerate her for now and flare up next time.”
At the same time, he also felt that Yue Xin’s question was too stupid. There was no game on the gambling table that relied on luck. It was all calculation and scheming. Only a fat sheep waiting to be slaughtered would ask such a question.
“Yes, let’s play a game of drawing cards and drawing turtles.”
Yue Xin tilted her head. “Is it simple to draw turtles? How do we play?”
E.P. looked disgusted. “Tsk, you haven’t even played with drawing turtles before? Come over quickly. I’ll teach you how to play. You’d better bring enough money!”
When No.12 heard E.P. speak to Yue Xin very rudely, he went up and kicked E.P.
without saying a word.
E.P. immediately screamed, “Ah! No.12 kicked me. I won’t wash this outfit in the future!”
No.12 was speechless.
Yue Xin’s face was filled with confusion; it was as if she was saying, “Why did you reward him?”
E.P. didn’t realize that from the first sentence Yue Xin said to him, the initiative had shifted to Yue Xin. He had been following Yue Xin’s rhythm.
Yi Chengxuan followed behind them and walked very leisurely, as if he was strolling in his backyard.
They walked to the gambling table and E.P. suddenly suggested, “No.12, do you want to join us? We’re drawing turtles. It’s more fun with more people. Moreover, this is called… Ah, right, Yue Xin! You’re with Yue Xin. You won’t be afraid that I’ll cheat if you play together?”
When No.12 heard E.P.’s words, he agreed without hesitation. “Okay.” He knew
E.P’s ability very well. In E.P’s hands, there was no game that relied on luck. He hoped that he could play with Yue Xin and help her see some of E.P’s methods.
No.12 knew that Yue Xin came to Building No. 8 to learn about people’s hearts and see through deception. If he could help Yue Xin a little and let her lose less, their daily lives would be more secure in the future. After all, he was no longer a prison guard and had no salary. Being diligent and thrifty would be his fate for a long time in the future.
Seeing that No.12 had agreed, E.P. looked at Denise again. At this moment, his eyes were different from when he was crazy with No. 12. His eyes seemed to be able to see through everything. “Does this lady want to play together? To make up the numbers.”
Denise shook her head. “I’m not playing. I’m here with them. I don’t have any money yet. ”
When E.P. heard that she had no money, he stopped persuading her. At this moment, Yi Chengxuan walked over. “If you want to make up the numbers, I’ll do it.”
E.P. shrugged. The taut muscles under his shirt were faintly discernible. “Okay, it’s really a game of luck if you guys come together.”
Yue Xin didn’t believe E.P.’s words. Although she didn’t know the rules yet, she didn’t think that this game would really be like E.P. said a game that relied on luck. At this moment, her sixth sense, logic, was insufficient.
The person beside him handed over a brand new deck of poker cards. E.P handed the poker cards to Yi Chengxuan and asked him to check if there was anything wrong with the poker cards. Then, he told Yue Xin the rules of drawing turtles. “Here’s a deck of cards. There are a total of 52 cards. The game will begin to randomly assign hand cards. Three people will have 13 cards, and one person will have 12. Before the cards are dealt, one card will be randomly drawn as a turtle card.”
“After the cards are handed out, you need to take out the paired cards in your hands. Then, draw the cards counterclockwise. Everyone can only draw one card per round.”
“If you draw the same cards as the one in your hand, you can form a pair and throw them away. When all the cards are drawn or paired, you will win and don’t have to continue drawing cards. After all the pairs on the field are drawn, whichever side has the remaining card will lose.”
E.P. looked at Yue Xin, who was seriously checking the poker cards, and confirmed again, “Did you hear the rules clearly?”
Yue Xin nodded and returned the cards to E.P. She didn’t see anything wrong with the cards, so she played it like this. She would speak when there was a problem.
After E.P. confirmed it, he asked the dealer to deal the cards.
At this moment, Denise suddenly approached Yue Xin and asked in a low voice,
“May I ask if I just need to stay here?” Yue Xin nodded. “Yes, just stay by my side.”
Denise said, “Okay..”
