Even if I'm a Fake Heiress, I Will Dare to Be Trashy

Chapter 158

A few people came to the gambling table, and L.A. suddenly proposed, "Number 14, do you want to play Turtle Drawing together? It's definitely more fun with more people, and you're here with this guy called...uh...Shen Yue! You're with Shen Yue, so you won't be afraid that I'm cheating, right?"

When Number 14 heard L.A.'s words, he didn't hesitate and immediately agreed, "Sure."

Number 14 was very clear about L.A.'s skills. With L.A., there was no such thing as a game of luck. He only hoped that by participating in the gambling game together with Shen Yue, he would be able to help her see some of L.A.'s techniques.

Number 14 understood that the main reason Shen Yue came to Building 8 was to learn about human nature and see through scams. If he could help Shen Yue a little and make her lose less, their future provisions would also be more secure.

After all, if he wasn't a prison guard, he wouldn't have a salary anymore. Thrift and frugality would be his fate from then on.

Seeing Number 14 agree, L.A. looked at Danni La. His eyes were different from when he was holding Number 14 and going crazy just now. Instead, they seemed shrewd, as if they could see through everything. "Miss, do you want to join too to make up the numbers?"

Upon hearing this, Danni La shook her head. "No, thanks. I'm just here with someone else, and I don't have any money either."

When L.A. heard that this person had no money, he didn't try to persuade her further.

At this moment, Si Chengyou walked over. "If you need to make up numbers, I'll join."

L.A. shrugged, his muscles tightening under his clothes. "Fine, with the three of you together, this really is a game of pure luck now."

Shen Yue didn't believe L.A.'s words. Although she hadn't heard the rules yet, she didn't think this game was really a game of luck as L.A. claimed.

This was her intuition.

When logic wasn't enough, intuition would make up for it.

Someone next to them handed over a new deck of cards. As L.A. gave them to Si Chengyou to check that there were no issues with the cards, he explained the rules of Turtle Drawing to Shen Yue: "There's a deck of cards here, a total of 52 cards. At the start, the cards are randomly dealt, 13 cards each for 3 people, and 12 cards for 1 person. Before dealing, one card will be randomly drawn as the turtle card.

After getting dealt the cards, you need to take out any pairs in your hand. Then, going counterclockwise, each person draws one card from the player next to them during their turn.

If you draw a card that matches one in your hand, you can discard both cards. Once all the cards in your hand have been drawn or paired up, you don't need to keep drawing.

After all pairs have been drawn, the player holding the last single card loses."

L.A. looked at Shen Yue who was checking the cards and asked again to make sure, "Do you understand the rules?"

Shen Yue nodded while handing the cards back to L.A.

She couldn't see anything wrong with the cards, so it was fine for now. She would deal with any issues if and when they came up.

After L.A. confirmed, the dealer next to them started dealing out the cards.

At this moment, Danni La moved closer to Shen Yue and softly asked, "Excuse me, I just need to stay here now, right?"

Shen Yue nodded. "Yes, just stay by my side."

"Okay." Shen Yue heard Danni La's melodious voice behind her. She stood right behind Shen Yue.

Shen Yue's hand, which was about to take the cards, paused slightly, but in the end she still didn't say anything.

She was here to learn about human nature, so the more she could witness, the better. Therefore, she wouldn't interfere with some of the irregularities she discovered and could preemptively stop.

The rules of Turtle Drawing were very simple. After playing a few rounds, Shen Yue completely understood them.

Number 14 was on Shen Yue's right and Si Chengyou was on her left. So Shen Yue would draw from Si Chengyou, while Number 14 would then draw from her.

This order directly ensured that L.A. couldn't tamper with her draws, at least on the surface it really did seem fair, relying solely on luck.

While playing, L.A. kept trying to chat with Number 14. Although Number 14 ignored him, L.A. was still tirelessly happy.

Si Chengyou didn't comment on L.A.'s noisy behavior, and neither did Shen Yue.

In the first game, unsurprisingly, Shen Yue won. Not only that, she was the first one to have all her cards drawn.

And the ultimate loser wasn't L.A. or Number 14, but rather Si Chengyou.

When this result came out, not only was Shen Yue surprised, even L.A. couldn't help but exclaim in astonishment. He immediately turned around and yelled wildly at his subordinates, "Quick, spread the word! Si Chengyou, the Chief of Building 5, lost at Turtle Drawing to me! He lost to L.A.! Hahahahaha!"

The little brother who received the order ran swiftly, afraid of being caught by Si Chengyou. However, Si Chengyou didn't seem intent on chasing him. Instead, he calmly said, "My luck has always been bad. If it was purely luck, I would be the eternal loser."

It seemed like Si Chengyou was talking about the game, yet also seemed to imply something more.

After laughing for a while, L.A. pushed the chips towards Shen Yue and jokingly said, "Not bad, kid, you got pretty good luck here. Shouldn't you take advantage of it while it holds and go another round?"

Shen Yue nodded slightly, and L.A.'s smile deepened.

Another gambling addict biting the hook.

Shen Yue lowered her eyes. On the surface, she already seemed to have fallen into the trap like the other gamblers. But in reality, she was just learning L.A.'s rhetoric.

She was pondering - so originally, to lure people into the pit, you had to use the bait and slowly reel them in step-by-step. Going too fast would arouse caution, but giving benefits progressively would achieve a boiling frog effect.

Finally, propose a seemingly "reasonable" suggestion that left people unable to refuse, and even gave them the illusion that it was for their own good.

Hmm, Building 8 really was formidable.

One more game to see what L.A. would say next time.

The money-scheming L.A. still didn't know yet that the person before him wasn't a gambler, but rather a ruthless learning machine.

That machine right now was trying to mimic and analyze his behavior.
