They were in charge of being beautiful, and she was in charge of taking the hits.

After a few rounds, the group gradually got the hang of it, muttering the broken letters "double circle" under their breath.

"Two against one"

"To the Joker! I'm out of cards, I win, pay me the money!"

Wu Ziyan played two rounds and then quit the game, finding new partners for them. Soon, those anxious people were drawn to the game, forming two or three tables and asking Wu Ziyan to come and give them guidance.

Just then, there was a rapid knocking on the door. With such a big storm, how could anyone still be outside?

At first, I thought it was just flying stones hitting the window and door. But after a while, I listened and it sounded quite rhythmic. The waiter was getting impatient, worried about how much dust would come in if the door was opened.

But what if we were really in a hurry and got blown away? We should open the door. As soon as the door opened, three people rushed in: Xiao Si, Du Lan, and Adar.

The people in the hall, who were having a great time, were stunned as they stared at the three people who were covered in dust. They recognized two of them because they always saw them when crossing the border between the two countries.

The other man was someone they didn't know well; they only watched for a short while before going back to doing their own thing.

They were staying peacefully at Silan Pavilion when Xiao Si suddenly came to find Dulan and caught her with Adal. Dulan could only tell Xiao Si that Adal was their country's prince and could not be slighted.

Adar thought that Xiao Si might know where Han Yuxiu was, so he casually asked her. She said that they were staying at Luo's Inn, which was not far away.

Upon hearing this news, how could he remain seated in the building? He immediately put on his cloak and headed outside. Dulan couldn't stop him and glared fiercely at Xiao Si: "Look what you've done!"

Xiao Si: "Huh? What's wrong with me?"

The three of them braved the fierce wind and finally found Luo's Inn, which led to the scene that followed.

"Waiter, quickly usher the three of them into the room, then close the door. As you close it, you all get a mouthful of dust, muttering under your breath, 'Why are you even visiting in this stormy weather?!'"

As soon as he entered, Adar's gaze fell on Han Yuxiu again. Han Yuxiu was naturally attracted by the opening of the door. When he saw who it was, he realized it was the man who had made lewd remarks to him. He immediately frowned.

Wu Ziyan raised an eyebrow. What a devoted man! He's even chased her all the way here.

She pulled Han Yuxiu behind her: "Isn't this... Why fight? Why aren't you staying at Silan Pavilion? Why are you getting involved in this little inn?"

"There is a saying in the Wu Dynasty: 'There is a beautiful woman, I am driven mad by longing for her, and a day without seeing her feels like three autumns.'" These sycophantic words came out of his mouth, and those who did not know the details thought he was saying this to Wu Ziyan.

Dulan didn't want outsiders to know about their prince's hobby, and her eye twitched slightly: "Young master! It's best to be mindful of the occasion!"

Upon hearing this, Han Yuxiu felt goosebumps all over his body. He wanted to go upstairs, but Wu Ziyan grabbed his hand and shook her head: "He'll be the one who loses face in the end. Why should we hide? He's the one who should be hiding."

"I feel disgusted by him."

"Hey, don't be prejudiced." Wu Ziyan pulled Han Yuxiu to her side, sat down, and continued playing games with them, completely ignoring the three people who had come in.

"Ziyan, you've got a pair, but no more cards! Haha, pay up!"

"Damn it, could it be that someone is affecting my luck?" This statement seemed to be implying something.

The three people who came in and sat at the table near the door looked disheveled. The waiter brought them some clean tea and then ignored them.

"Young master, why did you insist on coming here? Are you here to cause trouble?"

"What are you all doing, laughing and joking over here?" Adal's family hadn't heard Dulan's words at all.

She stood up and looked at the front of the school, but she still didn't understand it. This was a game she had never played before, not even in the Silan Pavilion they ran.

"I've never seen such a playboy before."

"It seems like it can be a group of three or a group of four."

[So, isn't Silan Pavilion fun enough? Why squeeze into this tiny inn to play?] "I'll go ask."

They asked at several tables, but no one paid them any attention. Perhaps the newcomers couldn't quite fit into the atmosphere yet.

The three of them shamelessly stood next to Wu Ziyan, with Adar looking down at her and asking, "Dare you play a game with me?"

Wu Ziyan raised an eyebrow and said, "You have to pay some tuition fees first. This game isn't free."

The others playing were also taken aback, looking at her. She had clearly taught everyone how to play for free, but these three people were now being charged. It seemed like there was some kind of grudge between them.

"Do you think I, this young master, can't afford to pay?"

Wu Ziyan shrugged. [If I don't raise the price today, I'm not Wu.] He held up one finger, and Du Lan spoke first: "One tael? It's not that expensive."

"No no no! Ten gold!" He shook his finger, his expression calm, as if he wasn't joking. When people hear "ten gold," they think it's outrageous. They're even less interested in the cards in their hand, afraid that she might turn around and ask them for ten gold too.

Adal's expression froze. She was really asking for a higher price right off the bat, but for the sake of the beauty, he gritted his teeth and said, "Ten gold coins it is!"

"That felt great."

Wu Ziyan first took a sip of tea, then quickly explained the rules of the game to him, and threw down the last two cards: "Did you understand?"

He only half-understood what he heard. In fact, he learned it when he played it himself. His predecessors had played a few rounds before him, and Adal thought that he knew how to play the game and that he could defeat Wu Ziyan.

After a while, Wu Ziyan was eating melon seeds and listening to others tell stories about their business experiences abroad. The stories were as exciting as a storybook, and she was completely engrossed when a gold ingot was placed in front of her.

She looked up and saw Adal again: "Aren't you annoying?!"

"Play one game with me, and this gold ingot is yours."

Although Wu Ziyan was a princess, she was indeed short of money. However, when she saw the gleaming gold, she immediately put on a fawning smile, as if to say, "Pour money at me!"

Adal never expected this woman to change her attitude so quickly, how could she be so unprincipled and greedy for money! Then he thought again, if she likes money, then can he buy the man beside her with money?

"Young master, how many of us want to play?" His voice became more ingratiating, and he rubbed his hands together with a smile, thinking, "You guys have just learned how to play this card game, how can you possibly beat me?"

"Four people."

But after playing a few rounds, Wu Ziyan won every single time, whether she was on a team with her or she was the landlord.

Adal angrily threw the cards on the table: "Did you cheat?"

Wu Ziyan frowned, giving him a look that said, "You've lost your mind: I cheated? Please, this young master insisted on playing with me, and now you're trying to renege on your bet after losing. Can't you handle losing? Come and see, there's someone here who can't accept defeat!"
