Chapter 111: I’m Not Playing Anymore

Old Master Ji did not show any mercy to his own son. As he stuck the sticker, he mocked him. “I’ll just stick one under your nose. When you breathe out, the note will fly up.”

Ji Lingchen was speechless at his own father!

Fang Xiaonuan looked at her husband’s handsome face from the side and admired him intently. He was so handsome from every angle. Where should she stick it? Suddenly, she met her husband’s gaze. Her heart instantly stopped beating. It was as if the tenderness in her husband’s eyes was like a vast ocean. She was drowning in it.

She was completely bewitched by her husband and had completely forgotten where she was.

“Hey, Xiaonuan, what are you standing there for? Hurry up and find a place to put the stickers. After that, we can continue playing!” Old Master Ji urged. He was very happy with his win and wanted to take advantage of his good luck to win a few more rounds against that rascal.

“Have you seen enough?” Ji Lingchen said in a low voice, the corners of his mouth still holding a smile.

Fang Xiaonuan came back to her senses and scolded herself. ‘Oh my God, I was so engrossed in watching my husband just now. If this gets out, people will laugh at me.’

In the end, she casually placed the sticker on her husband’s face. Her face was slightly red as she returned to her seat. She continued eating her snacks and playing cards at the same time.

Ji Lingchen said, “Yes, four.”

Old Master Ji said, “Yes, two.”

Ji Lingchen said, “Why don’t you…”

Old Master Ji said proudly, “Haha, I knew you would not be able to counter. Three kings and two fives.”

Ji Lingchen immediately put down his cards and said, “Pass.”

Fang Xiaonuan suddenly lost interest in the potato chips she was eating. Was she going to win without playing a single card? She had barely touched the cards this time.

“Dad, you’re so good! Let me play too. Let me do something,” Fang Xiaonuan prompted.

Old Master Ji’s love for his daughter-in-law swelled in an instant. He smiled and said, “Okay, I’ll will give you a chance to play a card. A queen.”

Fang Xiaonuan looked at the cards in her hand and said helplessly, “I can’t…”

Old Master Ji said with disdain, “What cards have you been playing? Don’t play anymore. I’m about to win.”

After saying that, Old Master Ji threw the cards in his hand onto the bed. “Straight again, hahaha!”

Fang Xiaonuan placed her hand on her chin, looking gloomy. There was something wrong with these cards. There must be something wrong. Otherwise, why would her father-in-law’s cards be so good every time? Thinking of this, she narrowed her eyes and looked at her husband who was shuffling the cards. Could it be that he had tampered with the cards? It must be! Even if he had deliberately let her father-in-law win, it was impossible that he got such good cards every time. The cards must have been tampered with during the shuffling.

Fang Xiaonuan watched her husband’s hands carefully as he shuffled the cards, but after looking for a long time, she still could not see anything.

“Hubby, let me shuffle the cards,” Fang Xiaonuan said, and then she reached out to grab the cards.

Ji Lingchen raised his eyebrows. His wife was really smart. She had guessed his trick.

Ji Lingchen reached out to hand the cards to his wife and asked, “Do you know how to shuffle?”

“No, I don’t need you to shuffle the cards,” Fang Xiaonuan said angrily.

Ji Lingchen did not say anything else. Instead, he picked up the half-eaten bag of chips and ate a few. He opened a can of beer and took a sip. The beer was ice-cold and delicious. It tasted great.

Fang Xiaonuan munched on the chips as she got ready to shuffle the cards. Then, she saw her husband drink the beer. She said coquettishly, “Hubby, let me have a sip.”

Ji Lingchen pretended not to hear her and ignored her.

Fang Xiaonuan continued to act coquettishly. “Please, hubby, just a sip, just a small sip. I’m thirsty from eating all the snacks.”

Ji Lingchen helplessly handed the beer over and said, “Only a sip.”

Fang Xiaonuan held the beer in her two small hands and brought it to her mouth. She tilted her head back and started to drink.

Just as Ji Lingchen began to imagine kissing his wife, he heard his wife burp and say, “Hubby, I accidentally drank all the beer.”

Fang Xiaonuan, who had finished more than half of the can in one go, looked at Ji Lingchen guiltily.

Ji Lingchen was speechless. How had she done that accidentally? She was clearly doing it on purpose! However, as he looked at his wife’s big innocent eyes, he could only suppress all the anger that had boiled up. What could he do? He could not bear to blame her, so he could only endure it.

After that, Ji Lingchen did not let Fang Xiaonuan drink beer. Fang Xiaonuan was only allowed to eat the snacks. Ji Lingchen drank the rest of the beer. Old Master Ji, meanwhile, won every game of cards.

After a while, the young nurse came to check his blood pressure again and found that Old Master Ji’s blood pressure was still high

Fang Xiaonuan said, “Dad has already won so many rounds, why is his blood pressure still high?”

The young nurse explained helplessly, “Being too emotional will also cause your blood pressure to rise.”

The husband and wife were instantly speechless. They could not lose, nor could they win.

They had also finished eating the snacks and drinking the beer. Fang Xiaonuan threw her cards down. “I’m not playing anymore!”
