Chapter 374 - 125 King’s Game Turn the Tide_6
Quite a few young people gathered around, intrigued by the scene, and couldn’t help but say, "Can we join in, hehe, it’s less tiring to work with guys and girls together."
Zhao Qianqian dismissively waved her hand, "What are you joining for, get lost already."
However, many eyes were on Ji Yunya, a group of beautiful girls sitting together, each with their own charms, yet Ye Xiaoxiao stood out the most, standing there like a queen.
Fan Ying wasn’t bad either, different from the usual beauties, with a casual and handsome air.
Yet, the most understated and quiet one turned out to be the most eye-catching; her beauty was like the bright moon, not vying for attention, resplendent in solitude, but like the most mellow wine, penetrating into the depths of the heart and pervasive for miles around.
Many sighed inwardly, "Is this really Miss Yun of the Yun Family, that Ji Yunya known as the top socialite?"
Indeed, her beauty was extraordinary, far above the common and vulgar, carrying a sense of purity.
Gu Shaozhen stood at the edge of the crowd, watching Ji Yunya with a cold gaze, a trace of venom flashing in his eyes.
Suddenly, he felt a chilling gaze on him, bringing a murderous intent that startled him, and as he followed it, he saw a young man holding a five or six-year-old child, gazing through the crowd and landing a cold look on him.
Gu Shaozhen was startled and calmed his racing heart, quickly diverting his gaze.
Ning Zihuan snorted coldly, "This Gu Shaozhen, actually daring to aim for Yunya, is truly seeking death."
His eyes fell on Yunya, his thin lips pursed slightly, feeling something off; this Ye Xiaoxiao could not have any good intentions.
Bai Xi craned her neck looking in that direction, "Zihuan Brother, let’s hurry and find Sister Yun Ya."
Ning Zihuan patted his back and walked over.
The first game began, and with full theatrics, Li Nan was King, unluckily, Luo Yuan was the loser.
Li Nan casually pointed to the box in the middle, "Let’s go with this one."
Luo Yuan cautiously reached into it but then suddenly pulled back in fear; the feeling of the unknown was too damn scary.
Quite a few boys around laughed, "Luo Yuan is such a scaredy-cat."
Hearing the mocking laughter, Luo Yuan gritted her teeth, plunged her hand in bravely, and just as quickly pulled it back.
Then, with a lift of her brows, she reached in again, even wiggling her hand around this time and finally lifted the corners of her lips with pride, "This is a safe box."
Zhao Qianqian chuckled, "Well, you’re really lucky then."
"The boxes already used can’t be reused, the next choice can only be among the other two boxes."
Surprise showed on the others’ faces as the chance of hitting the danger box became one in two.
The excitement on the faces of the onlookers grew as they watched these rich young ladies play such a thrilling game, quite a spectacle.
Ji Yunya noticed Ye Xiaoxiao and Zhao Qianqian quickly exchanged glances and silently lowered her eyes.
The moment to strike had come.
After showing off her fancy shuffling technique, Zhao Qianqian started having people draw cards.
She moved the deck in front of Miss Zhang, as per the old rules, starting with Miss Zhang, but suddenly Ji Yunya spoke up, "We’ve always started from the left, let’s change it to me this time."
Zhao Qianqian frowned slightly but swiftly smiled and said, "Of course that’s fine."
As the cards were moved in front of her, Ji Yunya hesitated back and forth in front of a few cards, pausing over one as if to draw, but catching clues from Zhao Qianqian’s subtle expressions, she moved away again, testing each card. Though Zhao Qianqian’s composure remained, Ji Yunya could not be certain of the specific sizes but could identify the biggest and the smallest.
Luo Yuan, impatiently said, "Ji Yunya, are you annoying or what? Don’t you know my time is very precious?"
Ji Yunya apologized with a smile and randomly picked one, as expected, a hint of triumph flashed through Zhao Qianqian’s eyes.
Ji Yunya’s brows lifted slightly, "Regardless of the outcome, I’m willing to accept the consequences."
Fan Ying said, "That’s the spirit. Even though it’s just a game, there have to be rules, or what’s the fun in playing?" With that, she nonchalantly drew a card and even winked at Ji Yunya.
When it came to Li Nan, she noticed the exchange of glances between Zhao Qianqian and Li Nan, confirming who held the King.
Then it was Ye Xiaoxiao’s turn, and as she drew, she shot a glance at Ji Yunya, who responded with a smirk, spotting a touch of triumph in her eyes.
When it was Luo Yuan’s turn, Ji Yunya suddenly said, "Miss Ye, it seems your eyelid sticker is falling off." As she spoke, she bent over toward her direction.
Ye Xiaoxiao instinctively touched her eye and turned to Li Nan, "What’s the matter?"
Li Nan frowned, "Nothing...."
