Chapter 268 Happy Upgrade
Chapter 268 Happy Upgrade
The main room was bustling with noise and an extraordinary atmosphere, as two tables of people were engaged in a thrilling and fierce competition.
Zhao Zhaodi moved nimbly through the crowd, her sharp eyes scanning the teacups in front of each person.
She skillfully picked up the teapot and filled everyone's cups with tea in turn. Then she sat quietly beside Yan Meili and Zhu Jing, watching the battle with great interest.
Meanwhile, Ye Wentao was also busy. He quickly moved a stool over and sat down next to Li Bin, focusing intently on the development of the card game.
At this moment, Li Bin and Zhu Jing are the dealers, and the game is upgraded to 5, which means that all 5s of all suits are considered trump cards.
This round happened to be Li Bin's turn to be the dealer and take the cards.
Li Bin reached out and picked up the mysterious stack of cards, a slight smile playing on his lips, revealing an undisguised joy. Judging from his expression, he must have had a very good hand.
After burying his cards, Li Bin carefully examined his hand and discovered that he only had two side cards left. Moreover, both of these side cards were Aces! They were the highest-ranking side cards of the same suit.
Li Bin decided without hesitation to clear out his trump cards first in order to take control of the situation.
As trump cards flew out like arrows, the situation instantly became tense.
Soon, Yan Meili ran out of her main cards.
Li Bin paused briefly, observed the cards that had already been played on the table, and had already made a plan in mind.
Immediately afterwards, he decisively played two more trump cards, a move that caused Kong Hui to run out of trump cards as well.
At this moment, Kong Hui could not contain his curiosity and asked:
"Li Bin, do you have any other cards left in your hand?"
The atmosphere in the main room grew increasingly tense and exciting, with everyone's eyes focused on Li Bin, waiting for his next move.
Right now, the card table is buzzing with excitement!
Li Bin excitedly revealed his two side cards, which were two Aces!
He laughed triumphantly and said, "Hahaha, see? With these two side cards in hand, we can advance two levels in a row and go straight to 8!"
Yan Meili and Kong Hui, who were standing nearby, leaned forward to take a closer look. After confirming that it was correct, they shook their heads helplessly and had no choice but to admit defeat.
As everyone casually tossed their cards onto the large table, a new round of the game was about to begin.
This time it's Zhu Jing's turn to be the dealer, and as is customary, she'll naturally be in charge of shuffling the cards.
However, although Zhu Jing was quite quick, she never seemed to be able to shuffle the cards to her satisfaction.
Just then, Zhu Jing suddenly turned to Zhao Zhaodi and shouted:
"Zhao Zhaodi, come and shuffle these cards for me. Let's see if my luck will improve after you take over."
After saying that, he handed the cards in his hand to Zhao Zhaodi without hesitation.
Without saying a word, Zhao Zhaodi took the cards nimbly and began shuffling them with lightning speed.
In no time, she had finished shuffling the cards and placed the entire deck steadily on the table.
Immediately afterwards, Yan Meili carefully arranged the cards, while the others watched her every move intently, eagerly anticipating the start of the new round.
Once everything was ready, everyone eagerly reached out and grabbed their own cards.
However, Zhu Jing's hand was quite disappointing—as the dealer, she only managed to get a mere three trump cards, and even pairs were scarce!
At this moment, she could only place all her hopes on her last trump card, secretly praying that it would help her turn the tide!
Zhu Jing carefully picked up the hidden card, secretly delighted:
This hand looks pretty good! She looked closely and saw that there was a majestic King hidden in the bottom cards. What was even more surprising was that the three trump cards could all be paired up.
Look at the other four cards; not only are they the same color, but they also miraculously form pairs.
Zhu Jing couldn't hide her excitement and turned to smile slightly at Zhao Zhaodi beside her.
Immediately afterwards, she swiftly buried her cards and decisively decided to use clubs as the trump suit, then launched into an intense game without hesitation.
On the other side, Yan Meili was equally determined, going all out from the start to clear out her main cards.
The two sides went back and forth, playing pairs of cards, and the battle became extremely tense and deadlocked.
Before long, Yan Meili's main cards were all used up.
Seeing this, Zhu Jing quickly asked:
"Kong Hui, do you still have any trump cards left?"
Kong Hui smiled and answered confidently:
"Of course! Go ahead and continue!"
However, at this moment, Zhu Jing realized that her trump cards seemed unable to suppress the opponent's hand.
So, after careful consideration, she decided to change her strategy and start with the side cards.
With lightning speed, she first threw out two Aces, and then without hesitation threw out a pair of Jacks of Spades.
Just then, Yan Meili suddenly let out a laugh that sounded like a goose's quack, which echoed throughout the room and made everyone present turn their heads.
With a smile on her face, Yan Meili confidently tossed her pair of Kings of Spades onto the hole cards, letting out a smug laugh.
"Hahaha, a pair of Kings of Spades, I'm the biggest one this time!"
Her eyes shone with an air of confidence, as if victory was already in sight.
Seeing this, Li Bin, who was sitting to the side, shook his head helplessly and could only silently begin to clear the tiles.
At the same time, Kong Hui was not to be outdone, closely following Yan Meili's lead and throwing a full 15 chips onto his hole cards without hesitation.
In just one round, Yan Meili's group successfully scored an impressive 35 points.
Immediately following up, Yan Meili pressed her advantage and played another pair of Queens of Hearts.
Li Bin quickly turned to look at Zhu Jing opposite him, trying to catch a clue from the change in her expression, but found that Zhu Jing's expression remained calm and undisturbed.
After a brief moment of thought, Li Bin decided to play it safe and eliminate the two cards instead of betting points.
However, Kong Hui did not seem to intend to let this opportunity slip away easily. He gritted his teeth and decisively bet 20 points, trying to turn the tide in one fell swoop.
Just then, Zhu Jing, who had been silent all along, suddenly made her move. She calmly revealed a pair of powerful trump cards, instantly suppressing Kong Hui's momentum.
After gaining the upper hand, Zhu Jing did not stop her offensive.
