Ji Yuan looked at Shen Antu standing aside.

Shen Antu asked hesitantly: "Is it okay? Will it be bad?"

Xie Wenxuan shrugged: "As long as Mr. Ji is capable of doing the job, that's fine."

Seeing that Shen Antu was still struggling, Xie Wenxuan said, "Why don't you ask your cousin when he comes? He's the big boss anyway. If he thinks it's okay, then it's okay. Besides, Mr. Ji really needs help in his current situation."

Ji Yuan nodded blankly: "Then... then thank you."

The room was quiet for a moment, and Xie Wenxuan suddenly stretched and said in a brisk tone: "Okay, now everything is fine, should we continue what we were doing just now?"

Shen Antu was refreshed: "Yes, there is just one more person!"

"Let's go, let's go." Xie Wenxuan pulled Shen Antu and walked out.

Shen Antu reached the door and looked back at Ji Yuan who was still sitting there in a daze: "What are you doing? Let's go, or do you want to rest a little longer?"

Ji Yuan stood up blankly: "Where... where?"

Three minutes later, the three of them arrived at the chess and card room on the fourth floor and sat around the card table.

Ji Yuan didn't understand why he was brought to the chess and card room to play poker in a daze, but since his job was to make Shen Antu happy, naturally what he said was what mattered.

Fortunately, serving guests playing cards is one of his jobs. While shuffling the cards with luxurious gestures, Ji Yuan asked, "What do you want to play? Bridge, Stud Poker, or Poker?"

Shen Antu supported his chin with his hands and looked at Xie Wenxuan mysteriously. They both understood what the other meant.

So Xie Wenxuan stretched out his index finger and gestured in the air twice: "Is there a way to play like that, the kind that..."

Ji Yuan listened carefully.

An hour later, Xie Duo's meeting with his acquaintances at the City Hall finally ended. Following the instructions of his supervisor, he went to the fourth floor to find Shen Antu.

However, before he even entered the room, he had already heard a heated argument coming from the chess and card room.

"You are cheating! You must be cheating!" The voice that said this belonged to Xie Wenxuan, and the voice was loud enough to blow the roof off the house.

Another voice followed, not to be outdone: "You put... you're talking nonsense! I still have more than 20 cards in my hand, do I really need to cheat? I think you can't afford to lose!"

"How is it possible that you've won five times in a row? Do you dare to show me your cards?!"

Shen Antu's voice also interrupted at this time: "Hey, we are all brothers. What does it matter if we win one more or one less, right? Xiaoxuan, don't panic. It's not impossible to win five times in a row. Don't you still have more than ten cards in your hand? Maybe the next one will be yours."

Xie Duo didn't know what they were playing for a moment, so he pushed the door open and walked in: "What are you playing? You look so happy."

Xie Wenxuan excitedly put one leg on the chair and rolled up his sleeves to confront Ji Yuan. Although Ji Yuan was sitting on the chair, his neck was stiff and his face was red, as if he was about to jump up in the next second. Only Shen Antu sat leisurely on the chair with a friendly look on his face.

Xie Wenxuan was in a rage, with the words "glad your mother" on the tip of his tongue, but when he turned around and saw that the person coming was Xie Duo, he immediately stopped and sat down obediently.

Xie Duo walked behind Shen Antu and glanced at the cards on the table. The more he looked, the more he felt something was wrong: "What new way to play is this?"

Shen Antu crossed his hands in front of his chest, looking dignified and unwilling to speak. Xie Wenxuan snorted and glared at Ji Yuan. His eyes made it very clear, so Ji Yuan, who was at the bottom of the food chain, had to speak: "Little... Kitten fishing."

Xie Duo: “?”

Ji Yuan endured the shame and introduced this card game that usually only children would play to Xie Duo: "First, divide the cards into three equal parts. Then the first person to play a card puts a card on the table. After that, everyone plays a card at a time. The card of the second person covers the lower half of the first person, revealing the number. If the card played later has the same number as the card played in front, the person can take the middle card into his hand. Whoever runs out of cards first loses..."

Simple, fast, all based on luck, no need to think at all.

"..." Xie Duo glanced at the cards in front of Ji Yuan, and then at the cards in Xie Wenxuan's hand, "Then this gentleman is lucky."

Ji Yuan scratched his head awkwardly: "We have two decks of cards..."

Shen Antu cleared his throat at the right time and elegantly placed the cards in his hand neatly on the table.

Xie Duo lowered his head and looked at the pile of cards. There were two decks of cards with 108 cards, and one and a half decks were in his hand.

Xie Duo: “…”

Shen Antu was not so shameless as to be praised for playing "cat fishing". He looked up at Xie Duo and said, "This is Ji Yuan, my old classmate." Then he said to Ji Yuan, "He is my boyfriend Xie Duo."

Xie Duo looked at Ji Yuan calmly and extended his right hand towards him: "Nice to meet you, Mr. Ji."

Ji Yuan immediately stood up, rubbed his palms on his pants, and then held Xie Duo's hand: "...Nice to meet you, Mr. Xie."

Chapter 32 The Truth

Ji Yuan looked at the big villa in front of him, then at the two hundred yuan worth of red wine he had just bought from the supermarket, and he wished he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

Because of Shen Antu's call of "Ji Yuan" yesterday, Ji Yuan was unexpectedly freed from all his debts and was sold to Xie Duo. According to the contract, he had to play the role of a qualified humanoid monitor.
