Ye Mingmei turned her head to look at the large swimming pool separated from them by just a guardrail.

The clear surface of the water shimmered, and a night breeze rippled across it.

The pattern at the bottom of the pool was faintly visible, very intricate and beautiful.

But at such a time, in such a setting, if she really lost and had to jump into the water, she might not freeze to death, but she’d certainly be embarrassed enough.

"Have you really thought it through, you want to bet on this round with me?" Jin Chenye looked at her steadily, his gentle eyes shining brightly.

"Yes, I’ve made up my mind. We agree."

She couldn’t have Jin Chenye protecting her forever; she had to learn to face things on her own.

"Alright." Jin Chenye lowered his gaze and swept his eyes toward Yu Xiuzhun, "One round to determine the winner."

"Why don’t you deal the cards?" Yu Xiuzhun lazily lifted his eyes to look at Ye Mingmei, his determined demeanor silently putting a lot of pressure on his opponent.

"Mr. Yu, at a time like this, it’s better to find a stranger than let Miss Ye do it. What if she cheats?" Yang Meilan suddenly spoke up, expressing her doubts.

Each person is dealt five cards, and they compare the size of the hands. If you encounter someone who can deal well, they could easily cheat.

This way, Yu Xiuzhun’s chances of winning would be very small. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

"I won’t cheat!" Ye Mingmei furrowed her brows, very dissatisfied with Yang Meilan’s skepticism.

She couldn’t even shuffle the cards; making her cheat would be forcing the impossible.

She simply couldn’t, even if she wanted to.

"I don’t mind changing the person." Jin Chenye said indifferently.

"No need, let her deal." Yu Xiuzhun glanced coldly at Ye Mingmei, his expression very calm, as if he didn’t care at all.

"Mr. Yu, since there are people who can pretend not to understand gambling skills, there could be someone who pretends not to understand dealing cards. If someone really does manipulate, you’ll suffer more losses."

Yang Meilan wasn’t having it, pouting and complaining.

The skill Jin Chenye just showed was enough to shock everyone.

"Then what does Miss Yang suggest?" Ye Mingmei thought about it and felt that, to be fair, she shouldn’t be the one to deal, so she put the cards down.

"Of course, have someone unrelated to the game deal, only this way can fairness be ensured," Yang Meilan said matter-of-factly.

"Then who does Miss Yang think that unrelated person is?" Ye Mingmei raised an eyebrow in response.

Everyone present was either siding with the Ye Family or the Yu Family, and even the occasional neutral person wouldn’t want to get involved in this mess.

Finding someone unrelated, as easy as it sounds, who could be trusted by both parties is simply unsolvable.

"I said, let her deal!" Yu Xiuzhun slightly parted his thin lips, his words already carrying a warning.

His wicked eyes cast a glance at Yang Meilan.

"Mr. Yu..."

"Whether she really can’t deal cards, everyone can see clearly, have you made enough fuss?"

A trace of impatience flashed in Yu Xiuzhun’s eyes, and he spoke mercilessly.

"..."

Seeing him get upset, Yang Meilan finally quieted down and sat back in her seat.

"Let’s begin." Yu Xiuzhun ran his long fingers through his short hair, lazily reclining against the back of the chair, casting a sidelong glance at Ye Mingmei.

"Do you really not want to change the person? What if you lose..."

"I’ll accept." Yu Xiuzhun narrowed his eyes, glaring fiercely at Ye Mingmei.

Trying to secure favorable conditions for Jin Chenye, she was indeed going all out.

"Everyone heard it, under the premise of no objections from both sides, only then will I deal the cards." Ye Mingmei raised her hand slightly, showing her palm to everyone, ensuring there was nothing in her hand, before reaching for the cards.
