I made the villain right.

The next day.

The gilded incense burner in the room exuded a rich sandalwood fragrance that permeated the air.

Shi Jin was lying on the couch with her eyes closed, sleeping soundly. There was a faint blush on her fair cheeks, like a newly blooming peach blossom, delicate and charming.

Fan Hua was wearing a moon-white middle-length dress, lying casually on the edge of the couch, supporting his head with one hand.

The collar of his shirt was slightly open, revealing his honey-colored chest, revealing a sense of casualness and unruliness.

His gaze lingered on her body and face for a long time, with an indelible tenderness in his eyes.

After enduring for several months, he finally got the rain he wished for.

He leaned closer and kissed her forehead gently, full of cherishment and love.

After a moment, she leaned sideways into Fan Hua's arms, with a few red spots still on her exposed snow-white shoulders.

After an unknown amount of time, Shi Jin slowly woke up.

She felt weak all over and her head was a little fuzzy, so she rubbed her sleepy eyes subconsciously.

In a daze, she met Fan Hua's affectionate eyes.

"Awake?" Fan Hua's voice was low and gentle, brushing lightly against her ears.

"Yeah." Shi Jin responded softly, his voice still soft and lazy like he had just woken up.

However, before she could fully wake up, she heard Fan Hua's charming voice again: "Did you sleep well last night?"

In an instant, the memories of last night flooded into my mind like a tide.

Her cheeks immediately turned red, and she shyly covered her head with the quilt, and asked back, "What do you think?"

The two of them were so affectionate last night that it lasted until three o'clock in the morning. Shi Jin felt as if his waist was about to break.

Seeing her shy look, Fan Hua lowered his head and smiled silently.

He reached out and gently pulled her quilt, saying softly, "Don't suffocate yourself."

Shi Jin opened the quilt and moved a little, and then he felt a sharp pain in his waist.

She frowned slightly, stroked her waist, and couldn't help but said coquettishly: "It's all your fault. You made my waist hurt."

When Fan Hua heard this, a trace of nervousness and worry flashed across his smiling face. He quickly sat up and said, "Then I'll rub it for you."

As he said this, he pretended to reach out his hand.

Shi Jin quickly sat up and waved his hand: "Not really."

She was afraid that he would eat her up again.

She no longer had the energy to struggle.

……

After Shi Jin and Fan Hua finished their meal, they were strolling in the yard when they saw Ran Ke coming over with some ready-made playing cards and hot pot.

Shi Jin's eyes lit up, there was an entertainment activity for the New Year.

She immediately took the playing cards and examined them. The playing cards were made of hemp paper, which was relatively thin and light, making them easy to hold and shuffle.

"The playing cards are ready, so everyone can play together."

Soon, the pavilion was full of people.

Shi Jin, Fan Hua, Du Xuan and Ran Ke were sitting around a square table.

Luo Yi, Zhi Lu, Yun Chuan and Shi Sheng sat behind them and watched.

Everyone's eyes were focused on Shi Jin, waiting for her to teach them how to play poker.

With a gentle smile on her lips, she shuffled the playing cards in her hand skillfully and began to explain: "This card game is called Landlord, and it is played by four people."

Shi Jin spread out all the cards, drew 2 and K, and introduced them respectively: "This is called spade 2, this is called spade K, whoever gets this card is the landlord, and whoever doesn't is a peasant. The peasants want to beat the landlord. Each of them will be dealt 13 cards. Whoever finishes playing the cards in his hand first wins."

"That sounds interesting. I want to play first."

Luo Yi stared at the strange-shaped cards on the table and asked in confusion, "What are these cards? I've never seen them before, but I recognize all of them."

"I've already told you how to play. All that's left is for you to recognize and play the cards."

Shi Jin patiently introduced and explained the playing methods and rules of poker.

Everyone present was smart, and Shi Jin understood immediately.

Soon, everyone became familiar with the gameplay and started to practice.

The first game begins.

Shi Jin distributes the cards to everyone.

Fan Hua calmly arranged the cards in order, his eyes fixed intently, as if thinking of a way to break the deadlock.

Ran Ke looked at the cards in his hand, frowned, and couldn't help muttering: "I got a bad hand at the beginning, how can I play this?"

He cast his gaze towards Yunchuan, pleading, “Chuan, how about you play this game for me too.”

Facing Ran Ke's backing out before the fight even started, Yun Chuan refused without giving in and said, "I don't want to be the scapegoat."

Then he nodded his head and said, "Use your brain, it will be fun."

Shi Jin picked up the cards slowly, with a faint smile on his face, looking confident.

Seeing that everyone had arranged their cards, Shi Jin said, "Three of diamonds goes first."

Du Xuan took out the 3 of Diamonds and threw it on the table, saying softly, "3 of Diamonds."

Ran Ke, who was sitting next to him, heard the words, his eyes lit up, and he threw down a 4 of Clubs, "4 of Clubs."

When it was Fanhua's turn, he still played the 7 of hearts, and Shijin immediately played the Ace of spades.

Others shook their heads to indicate no.

Shi Sheng sat close to Shi Jin and Fan Hua, looking at their cards with a slight smile on his face.

These two are quite destined to be together, as they are both landlords.

But looking at the cards my sister and brother-in-law have, they are both pretty good, so I guess the opponent will lose.

Shi Jin drew out five cards and threw them down, saying, "Three 5s and two 7s."

"Three 6s and two 4s." Du Xuan said and threw the cards down.

Ran Ke sighed and shook his head, "No fight."

Hearing this, Luo Yi moved his body and took a look at Ran Ke's cards, and couldn't help laughing:

"Your luck is so bad. You can see the ending of the cards at a glance."

Ran Ke showed a look of unwillingness to admit defeat and said, "How can I give up so easily until the last moment?"

Just as Luo Yi said, Ran Ke lost, and was the last one.

In this round, Shi Jin and Fan Hua were the landlords. They joined forces and quickly won the first game.

Since there are so many people, in order for everyone to play, Shi Jin suggested: "Why don't we play like this, whoever loses in the end will leave and another person will come up to play."

"Okay." Fan Hua responded first.

The rest had no opinion.

In the second game, Shi Sheng came on.

When Luo Yi saw Shi Sheng sitting down, he leaned closer to him and said, "I can help you with some advice so that you don't lose."

Shi Sheng heard this and said with a look of great pleasure: "Okay, I will rely on you as the military advisor to command from now on."

After a series of steps, including shuffling cards, dealing cards, and drawing cards, the battle begins.

This time Shi Sheng got the 3 of diamonds. Seeing this, his military advisor Luo Yi immediately offered advice.

She drew five cards respectively and threw them onto the table with great momentum, "3 to 7."

When Fan Hua heard this, his eyes narrowed slightly and he stared at the cards on the table, as if thinking about something.

As he thought about it, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, as if he had made up his mind. Fan Hua immediately played five cards, "J"

Shi Jin, Du Xuan, and Shi Sheng all shook their heads, indicating that they did not want it.

Half a quarter of an hour later, the second game ended. Fan Hua was the landlord, and among the peasants, only Shi Sheng won. The rest, Shi Jin and Du Xuan, lost.

In the third to fifth games, as expected, Fan Hua still won.

Thanks to his accurate card counting ability and clever card-playing strategy, he has never lost, which makes people doubt him and talk about him.

Shi Jin exclaimed: "Ah Yu, how come you can win every time? You are so lucky."

It would be a shame not to buy scratch tickets.

Ran Ke showed a flattering smile, "Master, the position you sit in must have good feng shui. Let's switch seats next time."

Luo Yi's mouth seemed to be filled with poison. She looked at Ran Ke and said, "The Pavilion Master relies on his brain. You may not be able to win by relying on metaphysics."

Shi Jin saw Luo Yi and Ran Ke arguing again and shook his head helplessly.

I thought to myself: These two people's zodiac signs conflict with each other.

Shi Sheng couldn't help but ask, "Brother-in-law, did you cheat? Otherwise, how did you do it?"

"I judge the situation and risks by memorizing the cards and calculating the cards in your hands, and decide on my subsequent strategy."

"I memorized the big cards that were played in each round. For example, in the first game, Mianmian played the Ace and Queen of Spades. I judged that most of the big spade cards might still be in her hand. Du Xuan played the Six of Diamonds and the Jack of Hearts, so I paid attention to the subsequent cards of the diamond suit. When Ran Ke played the Four of Clubs, I began to calculate the distribution of the suits in everyone's hands in my mind..."

When everyone heard this, their faces had different expressions.

Shi Jin understood what Fan Hua was saying, and while showing a look of surprise, he also gave him a look of admiration.

Card counting is something that is usually played by experts, but Ayu actually knows how to do it. He has learned it by himself, which is really admirable.

He must be a top student.

Shi Jin gave him a thumbs up and praised him generously, "Great, Ayu."

Zhilu looked confused, "How can we play it this way?"

The rest of the people seemed to understand but not quite.

"Playing poker really requires brains, but I'm too lazy to use my brain today."

After Ran Ke finished speaking, he turned his gaze to Fan Hua and said pleadingly, "So Pavilion Master, please don't get involved and leave us a way to survive."

Fan Hua seemed to have had enough fun and readily agreed, "Okay, I'll give you my seat."

After saying that, he stood up and gave his seat to Ran Ke, and then he moved back and sat behind Shi Jin.

While Shi Jin was playing cards, he rubbed his waist from time to time, and a hint of imperceptible pain flashed across his face. This subtle movement did not escape Fan Hua's eyes.

Seeing this, he sat closer to her and gently massaged her slender waist.

The warm palm came through the clothes, and Shi Jin felt a tingling sensation, and the pain in his waist seemed to be relieved a little.

At first, her body was slightly tense.

After all, she felt a little embarrassed by such an intimate gesture in front of so many people.

But with Fan Hua's gentle movements, she gradually relaxed, and the corners of her mouth unconsciously rose slightly, revealing a satisfied smile.

Shi Jin quietly raised his eyes and quickly scanned the people around him who were concentrating on the card game, and saw that no one was paying attention to this side.

She was like a kitten that had stolen some fish. She reached her other hand behind her with a hint of playfulness and gently hooked Fanhua's fingers with hers.

Fan Hua felt her little movement, his hands paused slightly, and a doting smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Then he gently stroked the back of her hand, his movements soft and affectionate, as if silently expressing his love.

At that moment, her fingertips seemed to have touched an electric current, and she withdrew her hand with a mixture of nervousness and excitement.

I was almost seduced by him.
