Chapter 1226 - I Have Money. I Don’t Care

“Hey, you guys haven’t gotten married yet, but you’re protecting him already,” Xiao Si said jokingly. “How about this? We’re not gonna bully the beginner. If he loses, he need not give us money. But we’ll give him money if we lose.”

“That’s very nice of you…” Nian Xi hesitated.

“I’m sorry, I disagree.” Mo Liuxi who was also dragged into the game, joined the conversation in a bland tone. “What if he had help?”

“Hm.” Nian Puntig nodded. “I can’t give my money to other people for no good reason, not even to my sister. My money belongs to my wife.”

His wife kindly gave him some allowance for the card game. How could he possibly lose it all? He needed to use that money to earn more and to rebuild his fortune.

Nian Xi speechlessly glanced at her brother, who now looked like a slave to his wife. “I’ve seen no one’s brother as stingy as you are. I believe that Sangsang will never agree with what you said.”

After she said that, Jiang Yuning carefully put his wallet into her hand and said, “I have money. You can play the game with my money.”

It was the third time he said how important money was.

Nian Xi raised her head, sighed, then said seriously, “I have no chance to win those foxes. They are all so good at calculating.”

She was especially talking about her brother and Mo Liuxi. She played cards with Mo Liuxi on New Years’. He was young and cunning. No matter how she tried, she could never beat her brother or Mo Liuxi. Sometimes, she wondered if Nian Junting was really her brother. He probably was. Nian Junting had taken all the good genes of their parents.

“It’s okay. I have money.” Jiang Yuning grinned and said innocently, “I don’t care.”

Nian Xi didn’t know what to say.

Rich people could do whatever they wanted nowadays.

Xiao Si couldn’t stop complimenting Jiang Yuning. “Xi, your boyfriend is so generous. Since he said that, you should just play the game on behalf of him. I will not make you lose.”

“Si, you are the only nice one,” Nian Xi said to him, then glanced at her brother. Like people said, you could learn about someone’s real face in a card game.

Since the invitation had been made, Nian Xi didn’t have the heart to reject her friends.

However, she regretted her decision after five minutes into the game.

Nian Junting was honestly too good at calculating, and so were Mo Liuxi and Xiao Si. She was still confused, and the three had already started an intense battle.

Facing the card masters, she had no other choice but to use her bombs, over and over again.

“I really don’t want to take your bomb, but this is the second time.” Nian Junting slowly spread his cards and said, “This is boring. I was going to win a bigger one.”

“Do not take it then.” Nian Xi clenched her teeth.

“You’ve used two bombs. I wouldn’t have had a good chance to win more, even if I didn’t take your bomb,” said Nian Justing blandly.

Nian Xi took a deep breath and glanced at Jiang Yuning, who was sitting beside her. He was looking outside through the window. “What are you thinking?” she asked him.

Hearing her voice, Jiang Yuning turned back and said, “I’m looking at the birds out there. Global warming is growing more and more serious, and so is air pollution. I wonder if the children of our children will still be able to see birds.”

He was thinking about that while she was losing at the game. She felt she wanted to vomit blood.

Ji Nuanyi, who was sitting beside Xiao Si, smiled and said, “Mr. Jiang is sentimental. Your girlfriend is losing the game. Aren’t you going to help her? You may not know how to play the game, but you can always learn.”

Jiang Yuning paused briefly, then said to Nian Xi, “It’s okay. This card game is only a way of entertainment. Some battles you win, some you lose. Think positively.”

Xiao Si almost burst in laughter. Even Mo Liuxi couldn’t help but curve his lips into a small smile. Unlike them, Nian Junting stayed expressionless. He was used to Jiang Yuning’s weird behavior.
