The Female Assassin Pretends to Be a Lamb in the Campus
Chapter 247: Three childish ghosts bet on chili; Lose a game, Stab a Knife.
Chapter 247
Cheng Jinyan was holding cards in his hand: "What should we bet?"
Ye Si was being nosy: "Lose a round, get whipped once?"
Cheng Jinyan was speechless: "That's enough, sir."
Glancing at the champagne tower on the nearby table, Cheng Jinyan casually suggested: "One glass per round?"
Ye Si, who was drinking, said: "Boring."
Cheng Jinyan suddenly thought of something: "Eat chili peppers?"
Among the three, Ye Si was the worst with spicy food, even having a bit of a chili allergy. Cheng Jinyan was definitely getting back at him on purpose.
Before Ye Si could refuse,
Cheng Jinyan provoked: "Dare or not?"
Ye Si retorted: "Come on, which time wasn't your luck the worst, eating until your whip wounds got inflamed and left scars all over your body?"
Cheng Jinyan wanted to get up and deal with him for the Nth time.
Cheng Jinyan: "I won't stop until you're hooked up to an IV."
Just as Cheng Jinyan was about to deal the cards.
Ye Si took the cards from his hand and gave them to Qiao Ying: "Baby, you deal, I'm afraid this guy can't afford to lose and will cheat."
Cheng Jinyan: "You're insulting my profession."
Ye Si scoffed: "You're not a judge banging a gavel in court."
Qiao Ying washed the cards: "Compare numbers?"
The two had no objections.
Qiao Ying chose the simplest and most effortless way to play, each person draws one card, the lowest number loses.
Qiao Ying dealt to the two people, and finally dealt her own card.
She directly revealed her card: ten points.
She always weakened her skills at the gambling table, but her luck was consistently good.
Ye Si: "Seven points."
Cheng Jinyan finally revealed his card, gleefully holding it in front of Ye Si: "Eight points, note down one."
Ye Si: "One? Raw chili pepper?"
He thought it would be chili sauce or wasabi.
Cheng Jinyan: "Sky-facing chili."
Ye Si was still not annoyed: "Alright, you wait, I'll make you jump into this pit yourself."
Qiao Ying reshuffled the cards and dealt again.
This game was all about quantity. In less than five minutes, they had played over twenty rounds. Ye Si's mouth was too careless tonight, and retribution came.
He had noted down thirteen chili peppers.
Cheng Jinyan was singing songs triumphantly, while he and Qiao Ying had noted down ten - eight of his, two of Qiao Ying's.
Cheng Jinyan threw the cards in his hand on the table. By chance, he had one more point than Ye Si again. He was getting a little impatient.
"This banquet is really boring. Why don't we leave now, I want to see him eat chili peppers."
Ye Si unpleasantly said: "No class."
Just as the three were playing,
the woman who had been scared away by Ye Si came back, arm in arm with her male companion. And this man turned out to be the young man who had controlled the entire scene at the start of the banquet with his status.
At that time, Ye Si and the other two had not yet arrived.
And after Ye Si and the others appeared, the man seemed to have been neglected. He also subconsciously compared himself to Ye Si.
The young man brought his female companion to sit opposite the three.
His gaze unabashedly swept over Qiao Ying in the middle dealing the cards, going up and down.
His eyes revealed traces of frivolous laughter.
Ye Si and Cheng Jinyan threw down the cards in their hands, deftly taking off their jackets, one covering the legs and one worn over the shoulders, wrapping up the person.
Ye Si gently reminded: "Don't look at what you shouldn't, it's easy to get carried away."
This made the woman across from them feel a surge of envy and jealousy.
Heng Te smiled and put his arm around his female companion: "It seems this beautiful lady is your companion, Gavin."
Ye Si: "Does Mr. Heng Te have some business?"
Heng Te: "You all seem to be having fun, I wonder if I could join you?"
Ye Si: "Doesn't Mr. Heng Te have anyone to keep him company? Mr. Heng Te may not know, your female companion here can entertain in many ways, you could have her teach you."
Ye Si glanced at the woman opposite with the look of one appraising an object.
Heng Te's expression was briefly ugly.
He could naturally hear the suggestive meaning in Ye Si's words. Not only was his female companion inferior to Ye Si's beauty, she even turned out to be Ye Si's cast-off toy.
Heng Te's expression remained unchanged as he retorted: "It seems I've gotten tired of everything fun they have to offer. I think Gavin's new companion here will be more interesting than them. Why not have her teach me?"
Ye Si's smile was still on his face, but his eyes were gloomy and fierce: "I'm afraid you won't live long enough to learn."
At this time, Qiao Ying spoke up, her tone light and breezy: "Play cards?"
Then she raised her eyes to look at Heng Te opposite her.
This Heng Te, both Qiao Ying and Cheng Jinyan recognized him. They had seen him before at a banquet when Ye Si dragged them along.
He was the president's nephew.
At the previous banquet, they had already discovered that this Heng Te liked to compare himself to Ye Si, overtly and covertly.
Unfortunately, apart from being the president's nephew, there was nothing he could compare with Ye Si on. He probably realized it himself too.
Heng Te's eyes lit up as he chatted very sociably: "You speak English really well, beautiful girls really are smart."
Qiao Ying ignored him and asked: "What should we bet?"
Ye Si and Cheng Jinyan thought to themselves: This Heng Te kid is done for.
Heng Te's tone was frivolously gentle and ambiguous: "Up to you."
Before Qiao Ying could speak,
Heng Te added: "I've thought of something fun."
He put his arm around his female companion, looking at Qiao Ying opposite him.
He smirked and said: "Lose a round, take off an article of clothing."
Seeing the lustful look in Heng Te's eyes, Ye Si's expression was blank as he muttered as if restraining himself: "I'll cripple him once the banquet is over."
Qiao Ying: "Boring. Let me bet with you - lose one round, get stabbed once."
Heng Te raised his brow. Without thinking, he agreed: "You like such bloody games? You really are different. Alright, we'll do as you say."
"But I'm a gentleman who cherishes feminine beauty. I really don't want to bully such a pretty girl. Let's do this - you play with her, if she loses, it'll count as on my body." He nudged himself aside and pulled his female companion over.
Qiao Ying did not have such chivalrous airs about taking advantage of a novice. If someone was asking for death by sending themselves to her door, she would not be polite or spout nonsense about unfairness.
Moreover, to Qiao Ying, whoever sat across from her was all the same.
Qiao Ying: "Let's play simple - three cards, highest points wins."
Heng Te: "Anything you say."
Ye Si asked the host for a dagger and placed it on the table.
The guests heard the commotion and gathered around to spectate.
Heng Te, who had no idea how dangerous Qiao Ying was, never took it seriously.
To be fair, Qiao Ying randomly gave her cards to a female guest and had her deal the cards in her stead.
The woman had no idea how to play. Seeing the gleaming dagger, her face went pale with fright.
She knew well that neither Heng Te nor Ye Si were people to be trifled with. This was definitely real. The dagger would really be used later.
If she lost, the dagger would likely be stabbed into her. Even if Heng Te was gentlemanly enough not to make her take the blow, she would still be finished after taking the hit herself.
And if the girl opposite lost, Ye Si would lose face, so she certainly wouldn't get any good fruit either.
The woman didn't want to play and wanted to run, but didn't dare say so. Trembling with fear, the female guest started dealing the cards.
The woman looked at the cards in front of her like they were ferocious beasts. Under Heng Te's urging, she shakily picked up one card with a trembling hand.
It was a nine of hearts.
She continued to the next card, an eight of diamonds.
Seventeen points so far.
The woman swallowed and picked up the last card, the jack of spades.
The woman's lifeless face instantly revealed an expression of surviving disaster. She happily showed the cards to Heng Te.
Twenty seven points!
This score was already high enough, she had won.
Seeing the points, Heng Te laughed with delight twice.
He planned in his mind whether to display his gentlemanly grace to Qiao Ying, showing mercy and letting her off to earn some goodwill,
Or take the chance to stab Ye Si once.
Heng Te looked over Qiao Ying's delicate little face, already assured of victory: "Such delicate skin, I really can't bear to stab the knife into such a pretty girl." Qiao Ying hadn't looked at her cards yet, but Heng Te and the woman were already celebrating.
"Twenty seven points, a very high score. Barring something unexpected, Gavin's side has no chance." Many guests lamented the loss on Ye Si's behalf.
Everyone's gaze turned to the cards in front of Qiao Ying.
Amidst the regretful noises, Qiao Ying looked at her cards, then calmly threw them out. Her red lips parted lightly as she flatly pronounced: "You lose."
Seeing the cards Qiao Ying threw out, Heng Te's smile froze.
