"One round is not enough, we must battle until dawn!"
Before Qin Zhao could respond, another man sat down in the seat to her left and spoke for her.
The man wore casual western attire, with a purple shirt underneath. He must have been quite handsome when he was young, but now he looked like a steamed bun.
Compared to the faintly vulgar man in the pink suit, they made quite an interesting pair.
Zhao Zhongyi was not in this train car, so Qin Zhao would not stay here long.
But for the brief time she was here, with these two men, it would certainly not be boring.
The man in the purple shirt smiled at Qin Zhao and introduced himself, "Wu Yong, may I ask this beauty's name?"
"Gao Qian," she replied.
Wu Yong raised his hand in front of Qin Zhao's eyes, putting on what he thought was a very gentlemanly smile. "Pleased to meet you, I hope we can get along well."
Qin Zhao noticed some dirt under his fingernails, so of course she would not shake his hand.
The stalemate was slightly awkward when a fat hand adorned with jade rings slapped Wu Yong's hand away.
"Little girl, don't mind him.
He just lost his wife and is looking for a new one!
Don't fall for it!"
Qin Zhao looked towards the speaker, a middle-aged woman covered in jewels and pearls, her overweight figure squeezed into a qipao, giving the impression she might burst at any moment.
Seeing Qin Zhao look over, she smiled, revealing a gold tooth that shone brightly.
"It looks like you're short one, so how about I join and we can play as four?
No objections right, then I'll sit here."
The two men acquiesced, but just as the fat woman sat down, Qin Zhao's voice rang out, "I object."
The fat woman's expression froze briefly, but she quickly regained her smile. "What a jokester this young lady is."
She turned to the other two men, "Wu Yong, Li Kun, I'm surprised you two enemies can sit at the same table. You're like dogs with their tails tied together, this really opened my eyes!"
Wu Yong and Li Kun glared at each other, clearly not fond of one another.
Li Kun opened the box on the table and poured out the mahjong tiles, laughing, "Sister Lan, it's been so long since we've played together, has your skill improved?"
Sister Lan replied, "About the same, just playing for fun, not relying on this for a living.
But judging by your outfit, your income lately must be pretty good?"
"Hahahaha, Sister Lan has sharp eyes. I have been quite lucky recently, you'd better be careful."
"Hmph, the bit of money in my pocket, ordinary folk can't win it from me. Come come, shuffle the tiles!"
At Sister Lan's command, Wu Yong's gaze, which had been focused on Qin Zhao, returned to the mahjong tiles.
The three of them bantered back and forth while shuffling the tiles.
After some time, they noticed that Qin Zhao was expressionlessly resting her chin in her hand, looking completely relaxed and showing no intention of joining in.
They had no choice but to stop.
Li Kun asked, "Miss Gao, do you not know how to play mahjong?"
Instead of answering, Qin Zhao asked back, "Do you three know each other?"
Sister Lan took over, "Not too well, just acquaintances from gossiping. I'm sure you haven't heard about the huge fuss they caused back then!"
"......"
Seeing that Qin Zhao did not ask further, Sister Lan casually continued, "This Li Kun, relying on his good looks, slept with Wu Yong's wife.
How could Wu Yong swallow this insult? They got into a fight at the casino, even ten security guards couldn't pull them apart!
And his wife was even defending Li..."
Bang!
"Enough!!" Wu Yong slammed the table, yelling at Sister Lan, "Say one more word and don't blame me for tearing your mouth apart!"
Sister Lan laughed unconcernedly, "So petty, be careful not to choke on your anger!"
"You're still talking!!"
Wu Yong's red face and thick neck did look rather frightening. Sister Lan pouted, "Alright alright, I won't say anymore. Let's focus on playing mahjong."
After the mood cooled down, all three looked towards Qin Zhao again. Li Kun asked, "Shall we start?"
Qin Zhao nodded. "Let's start."
The three simultaneously breathed a sigh of relief.
The base score was 100,000. After the first round of tile distribution, Sister Lan shook the dice and became dealer.
Qin Zhao had a good hand, a clear one suit of bamboo sticks, along with bamboo 2, 5, and 7, plus a concealed kong with bamboo sticks!
Seeing this, 502 was secretly excited, fully expecting Qin Zhao to win by self-draw, or at least win off someone else's discard.
Sister Lan discarded, "Dot one."
"Pung!"
Wu Yong took the dot one tile and discarded a nine wan.
"Kong!"
Li Kun took the nine wan and said, "Thanks Brother Wu."
Wu Yong's expression darkened.
Li Kun drew a tile and excitedly slammed it on the table. "Self-draw! Kong off a flower! 800,000 per player!"
502: "......"
System is speechless...
Qin Zhao calmly passed eight 100,000 chips to him.
Sister Lan also paid up readily.
When it was Wu Yong's turn, he was reluctant and dragged his feet.
Second round.
Qin Zhao got four concealed triplets - bamboo 7, bamboo 8, wan 4, wan 5.
Plus an extra wan 3.
She could win off bamboo 2, 3 or 5.
Seeing this, 502 jumped up and said, "Host, we'll definitely win this round! And the points, just thinking about it makes me drool!"
Despite getting such a hand, Qin Zhao remained utterly calm, her breathing didn't even quicken.
"Miss Gao, your turn to shake the dice."
Wu Yong passed the dice to Qin Zhao.
Qin Zhao took them and casually tossed them on the table.
Everyone held their breath as the dice landed on 6. Sister Lan was dealer again.
After Sister Lan drew a tile, she discarded a red dragon.
Li Kun: "Chicken nine."
Wu Yong: "Kong."
After drawing a tile, he excitedly yelled, "Self-draw! Clear one suit minus one nine! 180,000 per player!"
502 no longer even had the strength to cry. It watched as Qin Zhao silently passed 1.8 million chips over, completely losing spirit.
Even so, it still cared to ask, "Host, are you okay?"
"Of course," Qin Zhao replied.
After a pause, she added, "I suggest you go back to the furnace for a redesign. The human world is too complicated for you."
502 understood the subtext in Qin Zhao's words and asked, "Host, could it be you noticed something amiss?!"
"One round is not enough, we must battle until dawn!"
Before Qin Zhao could respond, another man sat down in the seat to her left and spoke for her.
