Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The New Year’s Eve dinner lasted for several hours before it ended.

After that, they took out the card tables.

Lin Shanchu rubbed her hands together and sat down in front of the card table with anticipation.

Yun Jin played cards with Li MO for the entire afternoon and won back all the money he lost last night. He also sat in front of the card table with an expectant look on his face.

He and Lin Shanchu sat down at the same time.

When Yun Jin, who was originally happy, saw Lin Shanchu sit down, his expression changed. “I’ll go to the next table.”

As soon as Yun Jin left, Huo Xunzhou and Yun Yi sat down.

Li MO wanted to come over and watch Huo Xunzhou play cards, but Yun Yi stopped him. “Don’t go. They are all high-end players over there. It’s not suitable for you.”

Li MO replied, “I’m just going to take a look.”

“No, you don’t want to take a look!” Yun Jin pressed him down in front of the card table and made him sit down.

“Big Brother…” Li MO looked at Huo Xunzhou for help.

Huo Xunzhou was in a good mood, so he looked at him with a smile and said,

“All the money you lose today will be on me.”

Li MO revealed an expression of despair.

It was not about the money. Mainly, he had lost the card game the entire afternoon and felt no joy at all.

He wanted to run away, but he failed to do so.

Yun Yi placed an exquisite safe on the table.

He opened the safe in front of Lin Shanchu. A box of cash was placed inside it.

“Shanshan, it all depends on your ability whether you can let me call it a day early or not.” He had a smile on his face and his tone was gentle, as if he was looking forward to losing all the money in the safe to Lin Shanchu. Lin Shanchu’s eyes widened. “You’re going to made such huge bet?”

Yun Yi smiled and began to deal the cards.

Lin Shanchu turned to look at Huo Xunzhou.

Huo Xunzhou whispered into her ear, “Let’s get Big Brother call it a day early.”

The few elders in the family were busy answering the phone just now. When they came in and saw them playing cards again, they walked over curiously.

“Yun Yi, your cards are terrible.” His aunt looked at Yun Yi’s cards while eating melon seeds.

“Mom, don’t look at my cards.” Yun Yi paused.

Patriarch Yun walked up to Yun Yi’s side after looking at Lin Shanchu and Huo Xunzhou’s cards.

“Jeez! Yun Yi, why do you have such lousy cards?”

“They are really lousy!” His uncle also came over when he heard those words.

Madam Yun narrowed her eyes and looked at him for a while. “Is Yun Yi going to lose the first round?”

Yun Yi said helplessly, “Hurry up and go play your mahjong.”

The elders were excited and insisted on standing at the side to watch them play cards.

The first round ended with Yun Yi losing.

The elders went to play mahjong in satisfaction.

Yun Yi had a bad start and did not win many rounds the entire night.

It was not even midnight yet, but he lost the entire box of money. A rare relieved expression appeared on Yun Yi’s face. “Let’s call it a day!”

Huo Xunzhou called out to him, “Big Brother, it’s still early!”

Yun Yi speechlessly glared at him.

His good brother and his wife had worked together to make him suffer a crushing defeat without showing any mercy at all.

Money was not important, but he mainly felt a little embarrassed.

Huo Xunzhou took advantage of the situation and played dumb. “What’s the big deal? I’ll just return the money to you, alright?”

Lin Shanchu was embarrassed to take so much money from Yun Yi, so she quickly nodded. “Yeah!”

Yun Yi smiled at Lin Shanchu and raised his eyebrows at Huo Xunzhou. “Shanshan won the money with her own abilities. You don’t get to make the call.”

Puzzled, she seemed to notice a hint of anger in Yun Yi’s tone, but he was not a petty person.

Yun Yi stood up and went to Yun Wu’s table.

“Is Big Brother angry?” Lin Shanchu turned to look at Huo Xunzhou, confused.

“He’s just jealous,” Huo Xunzhou said enigmatically.

“Huh?”

“The jealousy of a single man.”

Lin Shanchu remembered Yun Yi’s nickname in the family chat group—”Successful But Wifeless Eldest Brother”.

“Big Brother and Ming Yao…”

Huo Xunzhou interrupted her, “Don’t worry about Big Brother. You better worry about yourself first.”

He looked gentle with his eyes lowered as his slender fingers ran through her black hair and gently combed it to the back of her head.

However, Lin Shanchu vaguely felt that there was a hidden meaning behind his words.

“Worry about myself?”

“Let’s go to Grandfather’s table to take a look.”

Huo Xunzhou suddenly changed the topic and pulled her toward Patriarch Yun.

Patriarch Yun was old after all. He slowly looked at other people’s tiles before slowly looking at his tiles. It would take a lot of time to complete a round. fr(e)ewebn(o)vel

Lin Shanchu watched Patriarch Yun from the side, wishing that she could help him out.

However, she was not very good at mahjong.

After a few rounds, Patriarch Yun shouted that he was tired and stopped playing mahjong.

Huo Xunzhou pulled Lin Shanchu to the mahjong table and said, “I’ll teach you.”

When Yun Jin learned that Lin Shanchu did not know how to play mahjong, he ran over excitedly.

He thought that his chance for revenge had finally arrived.

“Shanshan is so smart. She must have learned it already, right? Let’s try a round.”

“Sure.”

Other than Huo Xunzhou, Lin Shanchu had never admitted defeat in front of anyone.

Her confident look made Yun Jin hesitate.

He remembered that Lin Shanchu was the top liberal arts scholar in Xu City.

Thump!

The grandfather clock in the hall suddenly rang.

It was midnight.

“Happy New Year!”

A low male voice sounded in her ear.

“Happy New Year.” Lin Shanchu turned around and smiled.

The Yun family had a tradition of giving out red packets during the New Year.

Patriarch Yun and Madam Yun were the first to give out the red packets. Everyone queued up to receive them.

After receiving the red packets from Patriarch Yun and Madam Yun, they could receive the red packets from the uncle and aunt.

After that, it was Yun Yi and the others’ turn.

The person who received the most red packets last year was Huo Xunzhou.

This year, it was Lin Shanchu.

Yun Jin and Yun Wu did not give Huo Xunzhou any red packet this year, but they did give Lin Shanchu a red packet.

Lin Shanchu had never had such a lively New Year, nor had she received so many red packets.

There were so many red packets that she could hardly hold them.

“Huo Xunzhou, hold them for me!” She ran to Huo Xunzhou with a pile of red packets in her arms.

In the end, not only did Huo Xunzhou not help her, but he even stuffed another red packet into her arms.

It was even bigger than the one the patriarch gave her.

Lin Shanchu widened her eyes in surprise.

After taking two steps back, Huo Xunzhou took out his phone to take a photo of

Dnancnu.

The woman in the photo was dressed in red and holding a pile of red packets. She had black hair and fair skin, looking stunningly beautiful.

Her eyes were wide open and clear, and her lively appearance made Huo Xunzhou want to treasure her.

“Why didn’t you tell me when you took the photo?”

Lin Shanchu realized that Huo Xunzhou had just taken a photo of her and ran over. “Show me.”

She did not really trust Huo Xunzhou’s photography skills as a straight man.

Huo Xunzhou did not show it to her. “Let’s go back to sleep.”

“Let me see the photo.”

“It’s very beautiful. I’ll show you tomorrow.”

“Alright then.”

The elders were a little tired after staying up until the wee hours of the morning, so they planned to go back to sleep.

Yun Jin was still thinking of taking revenge at the mahjong table. “Shanshan, why are you leaving? Come and play mahjong.”

Huo Xunzhou answered him, “We need to rest..”
