He tried to save the fallen girls, but they came after him instead.

Jackie received a five of hearts.

A, A, 5.

It is the largest pair.

Now we should be able to secure the victory.

"Her last card was a Queen." Maki rushed over to report.

The lady's cards were 7, J, Q.

A hand with a Queen as its highest card is a winning hand.

Unexpectedly, the lady remained calm and composed after receiving the cards.

Shirakawa gasped when he saw the last card.

"Thank you so much for your good luck, little brother."

The lady gently flicked Shirakawa's nose with her fingernail.

Huh? I've got the game in the bag, and you're still messing with this newbie?

Little White, watch me rescue you.

Jackie looked like she was going all in.

Michi patted Jackie on the shoulder and shook his head.

"It's alright, Sister Michi, I know what I'm doing."

Jackie nodded at Michi, then turned to stare at the noblewoman.

"I'm all in! (All in)"

The remaining 100 million chips were pushed to the center of the table, making a clattering sound.

Jackie bet a total of 180 million.

Did you bet everything on the second round?

The lady was also startled, glancing at her hand and then at Jackie's expression.

The lady was holding the Queen of Spades, the Jack of Spades, and the Seven of Spades.

Three cards of the same suit make a flush; she has a Queen flush. (If both players have flushes, the highest card is compared; her Queen is the highest, so it's a Queen flush.)

Second only to Ace Flush, King Flush, Straight Flush, and Three of a Kind (three cards of the same rank)

She was so excited when she was holding two cards in her hand, so she probably got a big pair.

Because straights and flushes both depend on the last card, if the last card isn't good, it's likely to be a mixed hand.

If the little sister has a pair, I'm sure I can win.

Unless she can catch the leopard again.

but......

The lady looked up at Jackie again, to confirm her confident demeanor.

Could it be that she was just lucky and caught a leopard?

The lady began to hesitate, wondering whether she should go with them or not.

After all, if she loses this round, the opponent will get 180 million, and she will have a total of 360 million.

She used the 200 million to exchange for chips from Shirakawa, and then had to pay back the principal, resulting in a net profit of 160 million.

I only have 40 left. With fewer chips, I'm going to be caught in a long tug-of-war again.

But if Jackie wins this round, she will have completely defeated Shirakawa, and the game will be over.

How to do?

"Oh my, such an old person, so hesitant and weak. If it were me, I would have rejected everything."

Jackie used reverse psychology; she was now going to seduce the wealthy woman into going all in.

In this way, she made the most of her hand.

The noblewoman thought it over and over but it didn't make sense. The possibility of it being a leopard was too low. What a coincidence!

She glanced at the alluring Shirakawa, then at Jackie, who was smugly standing there.

Fight!

I can lose even if I have a flush?

"Don't take advantage of your youth to bully others! I'm going to fight you!"

The wealthy woman counted out 180 million in chips and dumped them all on the table.

"Then please reveal your cards," the dealer said.

Jackie revealed the three cards she had placed face down on the table: Ace, Ace, 5.

She crossed her arms and laughed, "Heh heh, this is the biggest pair! Hurry up and show your little cards."

"The biggest pair? Pfft, pfft, hahahahaha!" The lady burst into laughter. "That's it! You dare to bet everything on such a terrible hand?"

"What do you mean?" The lady's smile made Jackie's heart pound.

"Young man, you should be more mature!" The noblewoman slowly revealed the cards in her hand.

"what?"

Jackie stared wide-eyed and opened her mouth wide at the three cards on the table.

Queen of Spades, Jack of Spades, 7 of Spades.

Q flush.

I lost?

I lost!!!

How is this possible? I'm cheating, and I still can't win?

Jackie sat down on the ground in despair.

She lost all her chips the second time, making it impossible for her to save Shirakawa and Akita-sensei.

She was too excited to carefully consider the information Maki had given her.

Maki only mentioned the number, not the pattern; she overlooked such a simple detail.

Jackie wished she could slap herself a few more times.

Maki was also completely bewildered. How did Jackie lose?

What I said wasn't wrong.

Maki, a model student and disciplinary committee member, had never played this kind of card game before. She had just watched a round and thought it was just about comparing card values. She was just relaying what she saw to Jackie.

"Hahaha, little sister, I'll take this little brother as my own." The lady covered her mouth and laughed, then turned to Bai Chuan and said, "Little brother, oh no, you'll be my little husband from now on, come with me." The lady took Bai Chuan's hand and walked towards the empty booth.

His young male concubine standing to the side looked visibly disappointed.

Only her most favored male concubine deserved such a title.

Shirakawa wanted to struggle, but with the group of male concubines staring at him menacingly, he had no choice but to give up the idea.

"Little White, Little White! No, Auntie, oh no, Sister, let's do it again, just one more time," Jackie pleaded, a rare occurrence for her.

This time she will definitely play cautiously and calmly, confirming the numbers Maki gave her and asking about the suits.

They're all cheating; as long as I'm careful, I'm sure I'll win.

"One more time? Hahaha! Where did your smugness go?" The lady laughed heartily. "You want to play? Fine, but do you have any chips?"

“I’ll be the bargaining chip,” Sanchi stepped forward and volunteered.

"You? I'm sorry, I'm not interested in women." The lady waved her hand.

"Don't go." Jackie stood up and blocked the lady's side. "One more round, one more round."

"I'll say it again, a bet is a bet." The lady waved her hand, signaling her male favorites to drag Jackie away.

Miike sighed. Although she was also unwilling, she had lost, and there was nothing she could do about it.

"Hey, bro, could you lend me some money?" In desperation, Jackie found a young man in a suit in the crowd and asked, "How much do you lend me? I'll pay you back double."

She will definitely win.

"Who are you? Get out of my way, don't interrupt my watching of the Domination Contest."

The young man shrugged.

Jackie fell to the ground, tears streaming down her face.

"I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry, Xiaobai, sob sob, it's all my fault."

Jackie didn't shift the blame to Maki; the numbers Maki gave were all correct.
