SIAS Chapter 240.1

Whoever loses has to stick a note on their teammate’s face.

Poor boys, not only can they not touch the cards, but they also have to bear the consequences of the girls’ losses.

Yi Qingqing had never played poker and didn’t know how to play, but it was not surprising that she didn’t know how to play, as Qian Lailai and Gao Yinghua didn’t know how to play either.

Fortunately, each team had at least one person who knew how to play.

Before the game started, Yi Qingqing was still full of confidence. She felt that with a great player like Yun Guyuan sitting behind her to give her advice, she wouldn’t lose no matter what. After all, Yun Guyuan had a photographic memory, so remembering cards was easy for him.

This was indeed the case for the first three rounds. Yi Qingqing listened to Yun Guyuan completely and won every time. But from the fourth round onwards, Yi Qingqing lost every round. She didn’t know if it was bad luck or what, and it even affected Yun Guyuan, who not only got a note stuck on his face but also on his neck.

As Yi Qingqing gradually grasped the rules of the card game, she slowly noticed something amiss.

She now has three ‘3’, one ‘10’, and one ‘J’ in her hand, but Yun Guyuan asked her to play ‘10’ first.

Yi Qingqing felt like she had discovered something.

Could it be that someone was deliberately misleading her into losing?

What was the purpose?

Then she obediently played ‘10’, and sure enough, she lost again.

She glanced at Yun Guyuan.

Yun Guyuan’s eyes flickered, and with his skillful guidance in the next round, she won again.

Moreover, she noticed that the ones who lost the most were precisely the two who didn’t know how to play, herself and Qian Lailai, while Li Mengxue and Wang Lingling, who didn’t need male guidance, won the most.

Then she saw Qian Lailai lose again under Chen Zhihe’s guidance. After Qian Lailai finished sticking the note on Chen Zhihe’s card and turned around, seeing Chen Zhihe grinning, Yi Qingqing seemed to understand something.

Never mind, she decided not to expose him.

Yi Qingqing chose to continue playing dumb. If she lost, she lost. The person who was labeled with the note was happy. What could she do about it?

At around eleven o’clock, they looked at their watches until the hands struck midnight, then cheered. It was a new year!

The annual New Year’s Eve limited-time sign-in arrived precisely on time, not missing even though she wasn’t home.

The mark appeared right beside her.

[You signed in at the limited-time sign-in location on New Year’s Eve and received a New Year’s gift package.]

Without even needing to hide, Yi Qingqing skillfully opened it in her system backpack.

The other items were similar to previous years, but the money in the New Year’s gift pack had doubled—1,314 yuan.

If the previous 520 yuan was a coincidence, this 1,314¹In Chinese internet slang, 5201314 means “I love you forever”. The numbers 520 (wǔ èr líng) sound similar to “我爱你” (wǒ ài nǐ), or “I love you”, while 1314 (yī sān yī sì) sounds like “一生一世” (yī shēng yī shì), meaning “one lifetime”. yuan, with its exact amount, couldn’t be a coincidence, right?

But surely the system wouldn’t have any ulterior motives toward her, right?!

She already had someone she liked, and she was planning to make a move tonight.

After exchanging New Year’s greetings, everyone tidied up and prepared to go back to their houses to sleep.

Yi Qingqing walked slowly at the end. Yun Guyuan, of course, followed her at the same pace as her.

After everyone opened the door and went in, Yi Qingqing waved to Yun Guyuan.

“Ah Yuan, come closer, I have something to tell you.”

Yun Guyuan moved closer as he was told.

“A little closer.” Yi Qingqing said again.

Yun Guyuan took another step closer, but still did not go too far. The two of them were still one step away.
