Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The dealer began to deal the cards. It was normal to draw cards in the first half until Yue Xin had four cards left in her hand. Yue Xin determined which one was the turtle card. She followed No. 12’s habit of drawing cards and placed the turtle card in the position where No. 12 would draw it. No. 12 did indeed draw the turtle card. In the next round. the turtle card landed in E.P.’s hand.
Yue Xin changed the position of the hand card. As long as the turtle card was in her hand, and as long as No. 12 had already won, E.P would definitely not draw the turtle card in her hand.
In other words, after No. 12 won and left the stage, if she got the turtle card, she would definitely lose this round. She had to guarantee that Yi Chengxuan would win first. The way to let Yi Chengxuan win was very simple; it was to restrain E.P. by controlling No. 12’s card. As long as Yi Chengxuan didn’t win, she would to keep the turtle card in No. 12’s hand.
This seemed difficult, but in the bet just now, Yue Xin had already memorized the habits of the three of them and the flow of all the cards that had appeared so far. She did not know what the specific cards in each of their hands were, but she could roughly determine what cards each of them had.
With Yue Xin deliberately transferring the turtle card to No. 12, Yi Chengxuan successfully left the stage after a few rounds of card drawing.
At that moment, the turtle card returned to Yue Xin, and then it was taken away by No. 12, and then by E.P. Now, the tortoise card was in E.P.’s hands again. After E.P. got the turtle card, No. 12 quickly gathered the pairs and left. Just like before, only Yue Xin and E.P. were left at the gambling table.
E.P. held up two cards in front of Yue Xin and smiled. “Not bad. You’ve improved. The turtle card is in my hands. You have the initiative this time.”
E.P. had two cards in his hand, which meant he had a fifty-fifty chance of losing. But even so, E.P. didn’t panic at all.
Yue Xin’s gaze landed on the two cards in E.P.’s hand. She suddenly threw her cards on the table and quickly pulled out the hidden card from E.P.’s hand. It happened to be the three of spades that matched the three of hearts in Yue Xin’s hand.
Yue Xin looked at E.P. who was still in a daze and said softly, “I won.”
E.P. came back to his senses and looked at Yue Xin with a face full of disbelief. He didn’t understand why Yue Xin, who had always been a newbie who didn’t know anything, could see through his methods. From the previous rounds, be it her methods or habits, Yue Xin was a noob who had never come into contact with gambling. So what was going on? Could it be that she had been pretending previously? How was this possible? With such acting skills, wouldn’t she be a movie queen?
Just as E.P. and his subordinates were immersed in the surprise of Yue Xin turning the tables, only Yi Chengxuan was not surprised. Under everyone’s surprised gazes, he praised Yue Xin, “Well done.”
Only then did E.P. react. He looked at Yi Chengxuan who seemed to heave a sigh of relief. “Boss Yi, so it’s you who’s behind this. I knew it. How could a pure newbie see through my technique?”
E.P. was still confident in himself. He instinctively placed his hopes on Yi Chengxuan. Yi Chengxuan was someone he recognized. No matter what, losing to Yi Chengxuan was better than losing to Yue Xin.
However, Yi Chengxuan shattered his fantasy. He smiled harmlessly and said to E.P. as if he was an old friend, “You’re wrong. I didn’t do anything.” In the gentlest voice, he said something that made E.P. shiver. He looked at Yue Xin in disbelief and asked, “What did you just do?”
Yue Xin replied matter-of-factly, “I did what you just did to me.”
E.P. clapped his hands and said affirmatively, “So you also arranged for someone to peek at my cards? F*ck, who betrayed me? Was it you or you?”
E.P. did not hesitate to kick his subordinate standing behind him on the right.
“I knew you were up to no good standing here. Did you peek at my card?!”
The subordinate who was kicked was dumbfounded and quickly expressed his loyalty. “It’s not me, Boss. I don’t know her at all! Moreover, I’ve been following you today. How can I collude with others!”
E.P. thought for a moment. That seemed to be the case. Then he looked at his men on the other side. “If it wasn’t him, was it…”
“I’m innocent, Boss. I was the one who wiped your eyes when you woke up today. I’ve been following you since then. How could I have the time to collude with others to set up a trap for you!”
When E.P. heard that, it seemed to be the case. Therefore, he was completely confused.
Yue Xin also heard something in E.P.’s words. She turned to Denise. “Did you just tell him my cards?”
Denise’s expression didn’t change as she said frankly, “Yes.”
Yue Xin nodded and didn’t ask further..
