Chapter 226

They didn’t eat slowly. In half an hour, everyone had almost finished eating.

Only Xu Lin and Father Bai remained at the table, continuing to eat and chat.

The five girls were on the side.

They set up a new bottom for a basin, laid down a thick piece of paper, took out two decks of cards, and started playing poker.

Chu Qingchan then discovered another thing that Chu Fengyi wasn’t good at: she wasn’t very good at poker, although Chu Qingchan herself wasn’t that great either.

The few of them started pecking at each other like rookies, but Ji Yun, with her amazing luck, won two games in a row. In the third game, Ji Yun looked at the two 2s and two kings in her hand and felt that her luck was great today.

“One 3.”

“One 2.”

“Ji Yun, what’s with this?”

“Pass.”

“Pass.”

“Pair of 4s.”

“Pair of 10s.”

......

“It’s over... Ji Yun, your cards are too good.”

Chu Qingchan thought for a moment, her cards were so smooth that even with X-ray vision, it would be hard to get such a comfortable combination.

“Do we keep playing?”

“Why don’t we play some Gobang? This game doesn’t rely on luck.”

Bai Xiaoxiao took out two boxes. This Gobang set was quite old, brought from her hometown in Sichuan Province.

There were also chess and military chess sets, but she wasn’t very good at those. Her dad liked chess more.

“That sounds good. Chu Qingchan, shall we play a round first?”

“Sure, Chu Fengyi, you always boast about being much better than me. But it seems like you don’t know much more than I do.”

“Don’t be so arrogant, I’m really good at Gobang.”

Chu Fengyi, not wanting to lose, picked up the black stones. She remembered that black stones had an advantage, although she didn’t know why.

“Let’s go.”

The two then played for half a minute, and Chu Qingchan won the first game.

“No, I was distracted just now. Let’s play another round.”

“Alright!” Chu Qingchan puffed out her chest and gave a tactical sneer.

The second game took about 2 minutes, and the pieces were already extending to the edges of the basin bottom. Ji Yun, Bai Xiaoxiao, and Liu Qinnuan sat nearby, chatting quietly.

“Didn’t both of them already win?”

Liu Qinnuan looked at Chu Qingchan, who had already made a row of five, and at Chu Fengyi, who had four in a row and couldn’t block.

“Let them decide the winner themselves, otherwise, both of them will be unhappy.”

Ji Yun understood the competitive spirit between the Chu sisters, but they also had a good relationship. Is this how sisters get along?

“Hey, Sister Ji Yun, you and Xu Lin are classmates. Can you tell me some stories about him from school?”

“There’s not much to tell, just ordinary school stuff.”

Ji Yun knew what Liu Qinnuan meant. She wanted to know about the relationship between her and Xu Lin. It wasn’t that she didn’t want to talk about it, but there wasn’t much to say.

After the incident with Zhang Kang, she and Xu Lin gradually moved from being friends to having a close relationship.

The transition was very natural. Although she was polite to everyone, she was actually quite reserved.

But her feelings for Xu Lin quickly reached a point where it felt like they were always meant to like each other.

Ji Yun and Bai Xiaoxiao also seemed to agree, and even Chu Fengyi didn’t object.

“Alright, but it depends on my availability.”

“Okay, what about the punishment?”

Chu Qingchan scanned the room and noticed a box of beer.

“We’ll drink. Win twice and get a date with Xu Lin; the losers drink a cup of beer each.”

“No, no, you shouldn’t drink!”

Xu Lin quickly stopped them. Among these girls, only Chu Qingchan and Chu Fengyi were adults; the other three were underage.

Although there’s no strict law against underage drinking in the country, using it as a punishment wasn’t a good idea.

“It’s fine, just a small cup, it should be okay.”

Chu Qingchan picked up a small disposable cup, about 150 milliliters.

“I’m okay with it,” Chu Fengyi waved nonchalantly, as if beer was no big deal.

“I can do it too,” Ji Yun said, looking at the two and raising her arm.

Although she didn’t want to drink, she felt lucky today... Going on a date with Xu Lin, and it is an official one, so she couldn’t back out.

“Hey, hey, calm down, class monitor Ji.”

“It’s okay.”

“I can do it too.” Bai Xiaoxiao raised her arm and glanced at her dad.

“It’s fine to drink a little, tomorrow is the weekend, you can sleep it off if needed.”

Today, Bai Xiaoxiao’s parents were also very happy. After all, it was a lively meal, so they decided to let their daughter have her way for once.

“I’ll join too. I’m actually pretty good at drinking.”

Liu Qinnuan found it quite interesting. However, she would be leaving in a few days, so it was unlikely she would win any prizes.

“Then let’s get started.”

“Alright!”

“Take it easy, you guys.”

Xu Lin looked at the excited group of girls, wondering why they were getting so excited even before drinking.

The ensuing card game turned out to be extremely intense. Miss Ji Yun’s luck seemed to have run out, while Chu Fengyi surged ahead, winning two rounds in a row and earning a date opportunity.

In the following rounds, Chu Qingchan also won two rounds. Ji Yun, Bai Xiaoxiao, and Liu Qinnuan each won one round, with Bai Xiaoxiao and Ji Yun starting to get tipsy.

“Don’t drink anymore, you guys...”

“Okay, no more.”

As she said that, Ji Yun slightly tilted her head, and Xu Lin caught her from behind.

“She really hasn’t drunk much before... Two bottles of beer and she’s down.”

“Ugh... Xu Lin, I lost.”

Bai Xiaoxiao also leaned over in a daze, and Xu Lin extended his left arm to hold her too.

In an instant, he had two beauties in his arms, their faces flushed with a slight blush, gently exhaling warm breath. His heartbeat couldn’t help but quicken.

“Ahem... Honey.”

Father Bai cleared his throat, and Mother Bai came over. Xu Lin stood up and handed Bai Xiaoxiao over to them. But Bai Xiaoxiao suddenly used force and clung tightly to him.

Mother Bai was a bit embarrassed and patted her daughter, but Xu Lin felt her grip tighten even more.
