Translator: Henyee Translations | Editor: Henyee Translations
“All Shu,drink up!” Zhao Ping personally poured a full glass of red wine for her. Mei Shu picked up the glass and finished it in one gulp, so straightforward that the people around didn’t have time to cheer before her wine was already gone.
Zhao Ping was stunned by the sight, but the next moment, his eyes sparkled with even deeper joy. “Good! A promise is a promise, very friendly! Let’s play another round!”
This time, Mei Shu’s first three cards totaled nineteen points. She glanced at the expressions of the others, her gaze lingering for a moment on Zhao Ping’s face, which flashed with a fleeting sense of satisfaction.
Lowering her eyes, she reached out to the waiter for another card.
Seeing this, Zhao Ping exchanged a mocking glance with Kang Wei, then said, “All Shu, this time I’m definitely going to win. Be prepared to drink another whole glass!”
“Well, maybe.” Mei Shu felt lucky. The last card was a Q, so if counted as one point, she had twenty points. Even if she couldn’t win first place, she wouldn’t be the last.
After everyone stabilized their hands, the banker began to check the cards again.
To divert Mei Shu’s attention, Kang Wei deliberately brought up a topic. “By the way, I heard there was a girl named Mei Shu at Lincheng No. 1 High School. After graduation, she inherited her family’s company directly and had dealings with my uncle. Li Zhen, are you familiar with this person?”
Li Zhen, subconsciously looking at Mei Shu, spoke faster than his mind, blurting out, “Not familiar.”
“Oh.” Kang Wei showed a very regretful expression. “You don’t know. Recently, my family has been pressing me to get close to this Mei Shu. 1 don’t understand. She’s just a little girl. What’s worth me fawning over? But my uncle does have a good impression of her.”
“I heard that Mei’s Group and Kang Wei have signed a long-term contract. This deal was personally negotiated by Mei Shu and Mr. Kang. It’s not surprising that your uncle has a good impression of her,” Zhao Ping added, steering the conversation back to Mei Shu. “Ah Shu, do you know her? Your name has a character that’s the same as hers. Could you be her?”
At this, Li Zhen stiffened, his hand holding the cards unconsciously tightening.
Mei Shu smiled lightly, “How could it be? She’s so famous in our school. I’m not as good as her. I’m just an ordinary female high school student at Lincheng No. 1 High School.”
“That’s true. If Li Zhen really had a good relationship with Mei Shu, would he not bring her here to play?” Zhao Ping retracted his suspicious thoughts, showing his cards to the banker. “I’m going to win this time. You guys all be ready to drink.”
Li Zhen casually revealed his cards to the banker. “Maybe not. 1 also have a high score this time.”
As it came to Mei Shu’s turn, the banker once again showed a twisted expression.
Feeling strange, Mei Shu asked in a low voice, “Is something wrong?”
The banker raised his head with a mysterious expression.
He was now very sure that this girl had been fooled by someone.
In the game of twenty-one, K, Q, J represented ten points. She had far exceeded twenty-one points in two consecutive rounds, yet she looked innocent. Unless she was an idiot, the most likely reason was that she had been cheated.
Thinking of the identities of the gentlemen present and Mei Shu’s description of her ordinary background, the waiter wisely chose to keep his mouth shut and silently shook his head. “Miss, you’ve lost again.”
How could this be?
“How come?” Mei Shu thought she had twenty-one points in her hand. Did they all have such good luck and all reach the maximum points?
Li Zhen also sensed something was off and impatiently asked, “Do you even know how to play?”
Mei Shu was about to say something, but Zhao Ping cut in, “I just explained the rules to her. Maybe it’s just her bad luck. Come on, let’s play another round.”
Mei Shu silently filled her glass with wine again and then drank it all in one gulp.
Zhao Ping rubbed his hands together eagerly under the table.
He knew the alcohol content of this wine very well!
Although it tasted really good and made people unable to resist drinking more, in reality, it had a strong aftereffect. Ordinary girls would pass out after just one small cup. Mei Shu drank two large cups in a row; it would be strange if she didn’t feel dizzy for a while!
As long as he spoke up and expressed his desire for her, he believed Li Zhen wouldn’t oppose him. Tonight, he would be able to enjoy the beauty to his heart’s content!
Despite just reaching legal age and not being very old, he had slept with quite a few girls, but a beauty like Mei Shu was truly a first for him!
“Good! Very straightforward! Let’s continue!” Zhao Ping cheered and urged the banker to deal the cards again.
Li Zhen asked quietly, “Are you okay?”
As soon as the words left his mouth, he became angry with himself again, his expression stiffening as he spoke in a cold tone, “If you feel like vomiting later, just stay far away from me. 1 find it disgusting.”
Mei Shu shook her head, dispelling the dizziness creeping into her mind, “I’m fine, don’t worry.”
This time, Li Zhen was more cautious. He stole glances at the cards in Mei Shu’s hand.
Mei Shu noticed but pretended not to, knowing that among the people present, he was the one most aware of her identity. He dared not let her get into trouble here..
