Next it is Yu Muyuan's turn to draw cards. As long as she doesn't draw a joker card from my hand, I lose the game.

One in three chances. God, please give me a chance. Considering how miserable I am today...

Yu Muyuan placed his hand on my cards and touched each one, as if trying to determine which one was the joker card from my reaction.

Seeing Yu Muyuan like this, I suddenly had a bad idea.

She put her hand on a card next to the joker. I controlled my nervousness and pretended to be unable to help laughing out loud, with a snickering look as if to say that it was the joker.

Seeing my reaction, Yu Muyuan immediately moved his hand away and decisively took away the joker card next to him, while mocking me, "Stupid little Loli, your expression has betrayed you, just admit defeat~"

I couldn't help but laugh out loud when I heard this, "Hahaha, idiot, look at what you have in your hand first."

When Yu Muyuan saw this, he froze.

? No! But your expression…"

"Hehehe, stupid little girl, you don't understand this, right? All's fair in war! Okay, the game continues, and it's my turn to draw next."

I put my hands on my hips, looking like I had already won.

The situation was reversed because of Yu Muyuan's card draw this time. As long as I didn't draw the joker card this time, Yu Muyuan would lose.

A two-thirds winning rate, isn’t that stable?

Thinking of this, I immediately took away Yu Muyuan's top card, and I froze again...

If I remember correctly, after Yu Muyuan took this card, it seemed that he didn't have time to shuffle the cards before I took it...

"Hahaha, Gui Ye, I haven't even warmed myself up yet, are you in such a hurry to take it away?"

Yu Muyuan's mocking words undoubtedly dealt me a heavy second blow. Woohoo... It's ruined, completely ruined!

"The teacher can just say what he wants. There's no need to act it out."

As Ning Xueyang spoke, he made the gesture of a little snake digging a hole with his hands.

"I, I don't want it!"

When I heard Ning Xueyang's teasing, my face turned red.

After praying inwardly for a while, he shuffled the cards and handed them to Yu Muyuan.

But this time I was not as lucky as before, Yu Muyuan did not draw the joker card in my hand.

She took the cards from my hand, formed a pair and threw them down, and I could only helplessly take the last card from her hand.

Wow, so that's why I did such a stupid thing when I was in a state of complacency!

246. Cheating is discovered!

After the setback in the first game, my performance has been off track ever since. Not to mention hiding my emotions, even when I drew the joker card, it was good enough that I didn’t scream out in fright!

It was precisely because I failed to hide my emotions every time that I lost three out of seven games. This losing rate is already quite high in a four-player game of drawing ghost cards.

Ning Xueyang has only lost one game so far, which means that before the end of tonight, I have to make Ning Xueyang lose at least two games without losing a single game. Otherwise, I will end up sleeping in the same bed with Ning Xueyang tonight...

At this time, Ning Yaqin yawned, "Haha~ I'm a little sleepy. I got up too early today. I'll play for a while and then go to sleep."

"Thank you for your hard work, hehe~" Yu Muyuan touched Ning Yaqin's head, and a smile appeared on his face, as if he was thinking of everything Ning Yaqin had prepared for him today.

"Well, go to bed early if you're sleepy." Ning Xueyang nodded in response, but his eyes were on me.

That look was as if she had already decided on me.

At this point, I also know that if Ning Yaqin said she didn’t want to play anymore, Yu Muyuan would most likely not continue playing either.

By then, it would be just Ning Xueyang and I left, and it would be impossible for us to continue playing.

Even if they continued playing, it wouldn't be two people playing together, but one person being played by the other...

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel a sense of urgency.

We can't just sit there and wait for death any longer. We must do something to reverse the situation now!

In a state of desperation, I suddenly came up with an idea, which was pretty good.

That is to let Yu Muyuan take away the joker card immediately every time I get it.

As for why I was so sure that she would help, it was because as long as I told her that if I lost, I would go into the room with Ning Xueyang. As a brother, she would not sit idly by. She and Ning Yaqin did not have any gambling agreement, so it didn't matter if she lost a few more times.

Of course, it’s definitely not a good idea to tell her directly, so I made an excuse that I needed to go to the bathroom, and then sent a message to Yu Muyuan in the bathroom.

[Gui Ye: Brothers, help me. If I lose more than Ning Xueyang, I will have to go into the room with her.]

【Yu Muyuan: Call me foster father.】

Tsk!

When I saw Yu Muyuan's message of taking advantage of someone's misfortune, I stamped my feet in displeasure, but when I thought about my own safety tonight, I could only grit my teeth and type the message on my phone.

[Gui Ye: Godfather, help me! ]

[Yu Muyuan: My dear son, tell me how can I help you?]

Tsk! This stupid loli who took advantage of others' misfortune!

Forget it, it’s more important to find a way to get myself through tonight.

[Gui Ye: You take the joker card from my hand. When I have a joker card in my hand, I will sit cross-legged. If I don’t have one, I will hug my knees. You do the same.

When you draw the joker card from my hand, I will cough. The number of coughs represents the number of cards counting from your side. 】

[Yu Muyuan: OK, I will help my eldest son today. ]

Tsk, forget it. Since this stupid loli agreed to help me, I won’t bother with it.

With Yu Muyuan's help, things should be better.

Although this may not necessarily make Ning Xueyang lose, at least Yu Muyuan can draw the joker card in my hand, so I won't lose.

After a brief conversation with Yu Muyuan, I adjusted my mindset and returned to the living room.

But when I arrived at the living room, Yu Muyuan was lowering her head, looking a little guilty. Ning Yaqin was staring at her. When Ning Xueyang saw me, he set his eyes on me.

I don't know why, but I always feel that the atmosphere seems a little strange.

I suppressed the uncomfortable feeling, walked to my seat, and sat down carefully, while looking at them.

I was about to say something to ease the embarrassment, but Ning Xueyang spoke before I could, "Teacher, what were you doing in the toilet just now?"

When Ning Xueyang asked me this, my heart skipped a beat. Combined with Yu Muyuan's guilty look, I seemed to be able to guess what happened here.

"What else can you do in a bathroom? Of course you go to the bathroom!"

As I spoke, I looked into Yu Muyuan's eyes, trying to get some information from him, but Yu Muyuan didn't say anything and just lowered his head.

"Oh, I see. Then..."

"Well, Ning Yaqin just said she wanted to sleep, why don't we continue quickly so we can play more games."

Seeing that Ning Xueyang was going to continue asking questions, Yu Muyuan changed the subject promptly.

Woo woo woo, you are worthy of being my good brother.

Then, I followed suit, “Yeah, let’s play games first!”

As I said that, I picked up the cards on the table and started shuffling them.

But before shuffling the cards, I saw the little devil released alone on the table, and suddenly I had some bad ideas.

The outcome of the entire game is determined by this card, so should I do something with it?

Or I can just pinch a mark on this card, so that I won't draw this card from someone else later.

Although this may sound a bit cheating, there is nothing I can do about it. If I continue to lose, I will have to share a room with Ning Xueyang.

Thinking back to today's experience, I really wouldn't be able to bear it if I shared a room far away from Ning Xueyang again.

But within a second of my pinching, Ning Xueyang called me, "Teacher~"

"Ah? W-what happened?"

Feeling guilty, I raised my head with a somewhat flustered tone, and the first thing I saw was the ambiguous smile in Ning Xueyang's eyes.

Could this guy have discovered it?

"Nothing, I just suddenly wanted to call the teacher, teacher, please continue shuffling the cards."

As Ning Xueyang said this, the ambiguous smile in his eyes became more obvious.

What? You called me for no reason and scared me.

Laugh, laugh, laugh. You will know if you do that every day. I wonder how long you can laugh. When you lose, you will cry!

I just don't believe that if I use this trick, I will lose!

"By the way, is it really okay for the teacher to shuffle the cards?"

Ning Xueyang asked casually.

I was a little scared at first, but when I heard Ning Xueyang's casual attitude, I felt a little relieved.

It should be...it should be a casual question, right?

"Of course there's no problem! I shuffled the cards right under your eyes, and they were all facing up. How could there be a problem?"

Although I said this, my little brain was actually working rapidly.

There are fifty-three cards in total. If I start dealing first, then Ning Xueyang is on my opposite side. All I have to do is shuffle the fifty-first card, which is the third card from the last in the deck, into a little devil.

In this case, Ning Xueyang will have the little devil in her hand at the beginning of the game, and Yu Muyuan and I will draw on each other, so she will most likely lose this time!

After being bullied for so long, it’s time for me, Gui Ye, to blow the horn of counterattack!

Soon, all the cards were dealt.

While dealing the cards, I was also observing the expressions of Ning Xueyang and Ning Yaqin, and did not notice anything unusual.

As for Yu Muyuan, she is a friendly force, so it doesn’t matter if she is discovered.

But looking at her silly look, I guess she didn't notice anything?

If that's the case, that would be the best. It means my technique is so powerful that no one has discovered it.

When I was about to deal out the cards, I took a special look to make sure that the little ghost card I had marked was in Ning Xueyang's hand, and then I felt relieved.

Hehehe, from now on, Yu Muyuan and I will not draw the cards from her hand, as long as Ning Yaqin doesn't draw the cards from Ning Xueyang's hand when the game is over!

Thinking of what I had said to Yu Muyuan on the phone before, I hugged my knees to tell Yu Muyuan that the little devil card was not in my hand.

When Yu Muyuan saw my actions, he suddenly remembered and followed my example, hugging his knees with his hands.

Ning Xueyang, who got the Little Ghost card, did not show any emotion. After taking a look at the cards in his hand, he looked up and stared at me with a smile.

!!!

I don’t know why, but when Ning Xueyang looked at me like this, I suddenly felt an inexplicable chill in my body, and then I trembled uncontrollably.

What, what’s going on…

Just when I was still confused, the chilly feeling disappeared as Ning Xueyang looked down at the cards in his hand again.

Let’s not worry about these for now. What is obviously more important now is to make Ning Xueyang lose this game.

With my secret manipulation, after a round of game, Ning Xueyang had to reveal the joker card that was saved for the last. His eyes were still fixed on me, with that unpredictable smile on his face.

Ning Yaqin looked at her sister Ning Xueyang, and they smiled at each other.

I always felt that something was wrong, but I still thought that this was Ning Xueyang's way of thinking he had a sure win.

Humph, you like to laugh, right? Wait until you lose again and I’ll see if you still come out laughing.

Just when I wanted to reach out to shuffle the cards to make it easier for me to cheat, Ning Xueyang stopped me with his hand. He still had that smile on his face, but his stare made me feel uneasy.

"Hey, the teacher already shuffled the cards last time, let me shuffle them this time, so that the teacher doesn't have to work so hard."

Although he was being polite, the way Ning Xueyang controlled my hand made it seem like he didn't want to give me the chance to shuffle the cards.

"Well, it doesn't matter. I'm a teacher after all~"

I pulled the corners of my mouth, forced a smile, and reached out to take the cards in Ning Xueyang's hand, but was blocked by Ning Xueyang.

"I'd better not trouble the teacher~"

In a blink of an eye, Ning Xueyang had shuffled the cards and dealt out the cards in his hand one by one.
