Chapter 656: Accept Defeat

Jiang Hai felt utterly helpless, so he could only comply.
His movements were awkward and inexperienced, but fortunately, luck was on his side. Mei Shu lost several rounds in a row.
Just as she was about to pick up the fourth glass of wine, Jiang Hai hastily reached out to stop her. “Miss Mei, don’t drink anymore. Let me take you back.”
Mei Shu brushed his hand away and said, “I admit defeat.”
With that, she finished the drink in one gulp.
Jiang Hai dared not continue playing with her. He was worried that Master Si would be furious if he found out, and he might even blame himself for intentionally getting Mei Shu drunk.
“Miss Mei, I’m done playing. Let’s go back.”
“Don’t be like that. It’s boring if you don’t play.” Mei Shu glanced around and noticed two familiar figures at the entrance. She chuckled and said, “Forget it, you don’t want to play, but someone else will accompany me.”
Following her gaze, Jiang Hai’s brows furrowed suddenly, and he instinctively stood up, adopting a defensive posture. “How dare they follow us here!”
“Relax.” Mei Shu raised her legs and held up her glass with a smile, letting the girl pour red wine for her. “They’re here. Now we’ll have some fun.”
At the entrance,
Ah Chen and Xiao Yuan were anxiously searching the bar, finally locking their eyes on the booth where Mei Shu was sitting.
Their eyes met, and a hint of malice flashed in Xiao Yuan’s eyes. She grabbed Ah Chen’s wrist, gesturing for him to look over. “Found them.”
Ah Chen sneered. He was wearing a standard business suit, and it felt a bit hot in the bar with the air conditioning turned up.
As he unbuttoned his cufflinks, he walked over with a smile and sat in the booth like a host. He said sarcastically, “What a coincidence. I didn’t expect that we would meet again. What’s the saying? Enemies are bound to meet on a narrow road!”
Mei Shu smiled. “You know we’re not on good terms, yet you still insist on coming over. You have quite the nerve.”
The man’s smile almost faltered. Leaning closer to Mei Shu, he almost gritted his teeth. “Last night’s matter isn’t over. We have a score to settle! I advise you to be sensible and come with me. I can overlook it if you follow me.”
Mei Shu looked at the dice cup and said, “Want to play?”
The man followed her gaze, full of mockery. “If you lose, you come upstairs with me.”
“And what if you lose?” Mei Shu raised an eyebrow.
The man tried to lift her chin, but Jiang Hai forcefully knocked his hand away. He could only retract it begrudgingly. “If I lose, you can do whatever you want with me. How about that?”
“Okay, it’s a deal.” Mei Shu agreed decisively.
Jiang Hai couldn’t even stop her in time.
Just now, when he saw Mei Shu playing with him, it was clear she hadn’t fully understood the rules of the game. On the other hand, the man named Ah Chen was clearly experienced. How could Mei Shu possibly win?
If she really lost, would she have to go upstairs with that man?
Wouldn’t that drive Master Si crazy?
“Miss Mei! I think you should reconsider!” Jiang Hai tried to snatch the dice cup from Mei Shu’s hand without hesitation.
Mei Shu avoided his hand and gave him a calm look, indicating for him to calm down. Then, she picked up the dice cup without hesitation.
“Miss Mei!”
Jiang Hai still wanted to say something.
Mei Shu raised her hand to signal him to be quiet. Then, she raised the dice cup and shook it.
Her eyes were determined and playful, as if she hadn’t even considered the possibility of losing.
For a moment, everyone at the table held their breath.
Xiao Yuan looked at Ah Chen expectantly. If he could win against Mei Shu directly this time and take her upstairs, she would also be able to sleep with Jiang Hai, and she could also take revenge for last night! It was a win-win situation!
It was killing two birds with one stone!
Whether or not they could achieve their goals depended on this round!
“Miss, I’ll definitely win.” Ah Chen looked confident.
Xiao Yuan chimed in, “It’s too late for you to back out now. Ah Chen is a master at dice. He almost never loses. You just wait to go upstairs with Ah Chen and enjoy yourself! Ah Chen’s skills are pretty good! And I’m not just talking about dice!”
After saying this, she even gave Mei Shu a suggestive wink.
Mei Shu nonchalantly smiled back, and as soon as the dice cup hit the table, the battle officially began.
Ah Chen was sure of his victory.
“Miss, don’t back out now!”
“Don’t worry, but can you afford to play?” Mei Shu retorted mercilessly.
The man smiled. “Of course.”
“That’s good.” Mei Shu narrowed her eyes, and at the same time, they both lifted their dice cups and checked their points.
[System, Mind Reading.]
[Master, Mind Reading function activated, duration thirty seconds.]
A glint of understanding flashed in Mei Shu’s eyes as she looked at the man. Without surprise, she heard his thoughts.
[Good luck! Three sixes, a three, and a five. I’m definitely going to win this time!]
Mei Shu suppressed a smile and withdrew her gaze, saying casually, “I suddenly had a good idea. If you lose, you have to take off all your clothes and shout that you’re gay in the middle of the dance floor, three times.. How about that?”
