666! (3)

Shang Guang watched as they played with much excitement. Bai Qi looked like he was on top of the world!

Although they were a fake couple, their status as a couple was real… Shang Guang took out his phone, quietly took a few pictures, and sent them to Xi Chengyun.

“You lost again?”

“Little Qiu doesn’t seem to be very good at this!” Zhou Yanfeng smiled, barely containing his happiness through the grin on his face.

Qiu Sichuan nodded, still looking indifferent.

Yang Yiru couldn’t help but say, “You didn’t have much time to relax back then. Isn’t that true, Qiu Sichuan? I watched the first episode after it aired, and I updated myself through the comments left by Qiu Sichuan’s fans. It really wasn’t easy for you when you first debuted!”

‘I just don’t know why you got married,’ she almost spilled out.

Xu Yi glanced at her with a smile on his face. Instantly, the atmosphere between them became awkward.

Right next to them, Bai Qi was explaining the rules of the LTK game to Fu Chunying. When he overheard their conversation, he put down the desk of LTK cards he was holding.

“I can teach you,” Bai Qi looked at Qiu Sichuan and said.

Qiu Sichuan looked up and looked at him. He froze for a second before nodding, “Okay.”

Bai Qi scooted over next to him, changing seats with Yang Yiru.

“Come, let’s reshuffle the cards.”

“So, you do it this way…”

The new set ended soon.

“You lost huh?” Fu Chunying looked delighted as she looked at Zhou Yanfeng.

Zhou Yanfeng frowned sullenly. “Bai Qi, do you know how to count cards?” he realized.

“Only a little,” Bai Qi said, nodding.

“Then let’s try playing another game,” Zhou Yanfeng suggested.

Qiu Sichuan turned to look at Bai Qi.

“Sure,” Bai Qi replied.

“Do you know how to play Twenty-One?” Zhou Yanfeng asked.

Qiu Sichuan shook his head.

“I can teach you,” Zhou Yanfeng added.

Zhou Yanfeng explained the rules of the game.

Qiu Sichuan could remember everything. It wasn’t difficult, even a newbie could get it. Well, it was a casino game, so clearly it couldn’t be too complicated, or else casinos would lose customers.

Subsequently, Bai Qi helped Qiu Sichuan to win 3 games in a row. So, this was what he meant by knowing ‘only a little’ about card counting.

“F*cking hell,” Shang Guang shouted. The program team almost followed along with a row of ‘666’*.

*6 is a lucky number for the Chinese and sounds like the Chinese word “溜” (liū). 666 sounds like “溜溜溜”, which describes a behavior that is skillful or impressive. The English equivalent could be GGWP.

“... Have you ever tried this in the casino?” Zhou Yanfeng asked.

“I’ve seen it on TV. I’ve also read books related to this,” Bai Qi replied.

Zhou Yanfeng couldn’t believe it. “If everyone could win at a casino after watching ‘God of Gamblers’*, would there still be losers in casinos these days?”

*God of Gamblers (赌神) is a movie about a master gambler who loses his memory and befriends a street hustler who discovers his supernatural gambling abilities. It is a famous Hong Kong movie from 1989 featuring an all-star cast led by Chow Yun-fat and Andy Lau.

“Poker depends on memory. As long as you master that, you’ll be good to go,” Bai Qi said.

Zhou Yanfeng’s eyebrows were furrowed as he said, “How bout ‘21’*? I’ve watched that. Back then, the original book from which the movie was adapted was pretty useful, but not anymore.”

*21 (决胜21点) is an American film of a fact-based story about six MIT students who were trained to become experts in card counting and subsequently took Vegas casinos for millions in winnings.

Bai Qi didn’t affirm or deny the question. He lowered his head and took a sip of orange juice. “Knowledge will never be outdated,” Bai Qi said in a low voice.

Shang Guang couldn’t help but feel that Bai Qi had a different kind of charm when he said that.

The program team also secretly saved the footage of the incident to be made into BTS cuts.

Qiu Sichuan gave a subtle smile and shared half of the rewards he got with Bai Qi.

Bai Qi was now in high demand.

Fu Chunying quickly approached him to ask if he knew how to play Mahjong and if he had any tricks up his sleeve that he could teach her.

The coach was bustling with life.



At that moment, Xi Chengyun was being invited to a meal by several people in Shanghai.

These people were also extremely curious about Xi Chengyun’s marriage, but they didn’t dare to ask.

As soon as everyone sat down and before anyone had a chance to speak, they saw Xi Chengyun taking out his phone. He stared at it for quite a bit.

He was looking at the pictures Shang Guang sent him.

In the picture, Bai Qi was holding onto a card with his slender fingers, his finger slightly bent to keep the card in place. His head was slightly bowed, he was smiling as he talked to Fu Chunying.

This Bai Qi was different from the Bai Qi who was driving the snow car, different from the Bai Qi who took the initiative to sit on his lap.

Xi Chengyun unconsciously rubbed his fingertips against each other.

Someone boldly joked at him. “What’s up? Did our ‘sister-in-law’ text you?”

“Mn,” Xi Chengyun said while he focused on replying to Shang Guang’s message.

Xi Chengyun:【?】

Xi Chengyun:【Good shot】

Bai Qi looks very good in the picture.

Shang Guang:【?????】

My dear Xi-ge, is that even the main point here?

At the same time, Papa Bai had just made his rounds around the construction site, sweating all over.

He walked into the cafeteria with a bowl in hand. In the cafeteria, there was a show playing on the TV.

He looked up to take a quick glance ——

Heh, am I becoming long-sighted? Why do I see my son on TV?

Papa Bai didn’t bother to give it more thought before giving his wife a call. “Hey, I saw my son on TV. Have the talent agencies finally realized the good looks that Bai Qi got from me?”

Su Meixian was pissed.

Talent agencies.

What talent agencies are you even talking about! Your son got married, and went on a show with a wild man!

Idiot. Only I know about their marriage, and you don’t, heh! Su Meixian thought to herself.
