Chapter 49: No One Can Leave If I Don’t Win

Uncle Li and Xiao Zhao were both stunned for a moment, but Uncle Li finally said, "Yes, but I don't know if you're used to smoking."

What's there to be unaccustomed to? It's just cigarettes. I can smoke the 8-yuan pack of Double Happiness and the 100-yuan pack of Suyan Chenxiang, the king of thin cigarettes. Lin Xi nodded, "Give me one." Then she saw Uncle Li pull a pack of cigarettes of an unidentifiable brand from his trouser pocket. Wow, she had never smoked this before.

Perhaps it's a new brand released in recent years? Or perhaps it's a special edition for the world of Rule Kaidan?

Lin Xi truly didn't understand. She hadn't smoked in years, not since she and Shen Sangning confirmed their relationship. Because... smoking makes your mouth smell. Even if you chew gum or use breath freshener, smoking for too long leaves your mouth stained with the lingering smell of nicotine.

Shen Sangning didn't like that taste. When they were still in an online relationship, Shen Sangning said: If Lin Xi has that taste in her mouth when they meet, they will just put an end to the kiss.

It was a bolt from the blue for Lin Xi at the time. She pondered for a long time. It wasn't because she really liked smoking cigarettes, but because she really thought they were very cool. At that time, she often participated in competitions to get extra points on her exams, and sometimes a cigarette could relieve the pressure a little. But compared to the pressure relief, she wanted to kiss Shen Sangning more.

So in order to prevent the kiss from being sealed, the only thing we can do is seal the cigarettes.

But Shen Sangning was now a ghost, still a confused one, while Lin Xi was still human and couldn't kiss Shen Sangning. The kiss in the dungeon before was because Lin Xi didn't know Shen Sangning's condition. Thinking about it now, Lin Xi wanted to slap himself.

She is still a human being, but she actually forcefully kissed Shen Sang Ning, who was completely confused and had no IQ. She was simply a beast!

But now the kiss has been sealed, and Shen Sangning is a ghost, so the secondhand smoke can't affect her. Lin Xi is a little sleepy, so she wants to have a cigarette to refresh herself.

Uncle Li tapped the cigarette box, ejecting a cigarette. Lin Xi reached out, deftly extending two fingers to pick up the cigarette and pulled it out. Xiao Zhao promptly produced a lighter, and Lin Xi reached over. With a click, he waited for the lighter to light before placing the cigarette in his mouth. After the cigarette was lit, he placed it in his mouth.

Lin Xi took a puff and then frowned. This taste was like a low-quality cigarette. He would not smoke anymore after this one.

She didn't know that her actions had caused the audience in the live broadcast room to explode, and some people were blaming Lin Xi:

[No way, a woman is smoking, are you kidding me?]

[These days, smoking during livestreams is forbidden. Lin Xi is smoking openly like this. Why don't they shut down her livestreaming room?]

[To be honest, there is something wrong with girls smoking...]

Someone also helped Lin Xi to spray back:

[Although I hate smoking, Lin Xi's smoking now doesn't bother anyone, so why do you care so much?]

Who says girls can't smoke? As long as she's not in public and doesn't expose me to secondhand smoke, I don't care if she smokes or not.

[This is hilarious. Are there fewer men smoking? Why aren't women allowed to smoke? There are so many women's cigarettes, and you're raising the sales for them if women don't smoke them?]

[Sister, kill me. Lin Xi looks so cool when she smokes. Stop talking. I like it.]

Lin Xi, a woman who smokes, drinks, and plays cards but hasn't become a bad woman, filled a disposable paper cup with water and started smoking in front of millions of viewers on her livestream. Cigarettes may cheer her up, but they don't improve her luck at mahjong. She played mahjong from a little after midnight until two in the morning.

Lin Xi has already lost three thousand yuan at the poker table, which means she has lost a month's salary.

Sister Sun decided to quit while she was ahead. She had already thought about the situation where Lin Xi would have to pay off his debt with his life if he didn't get paid next month. She smiled cheerfully and said, "Lin Xi, let's stop here today. If you keep fighting, I think you won't even get paid next month."

Uncle Li also pushed the cards away: "I'm old and can't play anymore. Let's just stop here and take a rest."

Seeing that neither of them had given up playing, Xiao Zhao happily mixed up the cards: "Then let's stop here."

All three of them wore expressions of joy, but Lin Xi's eyes were red, making him look even more ghostly than the others. It was only two o'clock, and they could still play until four. There was no way Lin Xi would just let them go. Lin Xi sat at the table, his hands propped up on the surface, a disposable paper cup beside him filled with cigarette ash.

But Lin Xi only smoked one cigarette. It was not easy to smoke, and she really didn't have any addiction, so she just smoked one to wake herself up.

Lin Xi sneered: "You want to leave after winning the game? There is no such thing in the world. Sit down!" Lin Xi's tone was very impolite. Uncle Li, the oldest, frowned: "Lin Xi, how can you talk like that? You have lost so much. We don't play for your own good. Your luck with cards is really not good today."

Sister Sun also tried to persuade him, but Lin Xi remained unmoved. "My luck at poker isn't very good. You're clearly cheating. If I don't win today, you can't leave."

"Alas, Lin Xi, why are you doing this..."

Lin Xi looked up at Sister Sun who was still trying to say something nice and simply exposed her mistake: "Why are you pretending to be so hypocritical? If you hadn't cheated, would I have lost so much? You should have agreed on one thousand yuan each. How can you win so evenly playing mahjong?" Lin Xi didn't hesitate this time and told the truth directly.

Hearing the word "cheating", Uncle Li's face instantly darkened. "Lin Xi, don't talk nonsense. We all play mahjong according to the rules. We didn't cheat you. It's just your bad luck."

"Rules?" Before Uncle Li could finish, Lin Xi stood up, pressing on the table. "The rules don't say anything about cheating. You guys are really good at playing with these rules. It's probably because they're so personal, that's why you're so good at it. The rules you showed me before, aside from the usual rules, didn't mention cheating. You even mentioned 'three shots allowed,' but didn't mention cheating, right?"

Lin Xi snorted coldly: "If you like to cheat, then let's all do it together."

"I don't know what you are talking about." At this time, Sister Sun still did not admit it. She had a smile on her face: "I know Lin Xi, you are unhappy because you have lost too much. Let's stop here today. We will play with you next time." Who knows where to find them next time. After leaving the card table today, it will be difficult to call everyone to play mahjong again.

Lin Xi said directly: "I said, if I don't win today, no one wants to leave."

Xiao Zhao, who had been smiling the whole time, turned grim. "Lin Xi, don't go too far. It's not reasonable to ask others not to fight." He even sneered, "Who do you think you are?"

——Today I will show you who I am.

Lin Xi slammed the table and shouted, "Wife."

When the three of them were puzzled, they suddenly saw a figure coming out from Lin Xi's body. This time, Shen Sang Ning's appearance was a little different. Usually, she would come out from Lin Xi's chest, but maybe because there was a table in front of her this time, Shen Sang Ning did not come out from the front, but changed her position and came out from behind Lin Xi.

After she came out, she floated quietly behind Lin Xi. Chen Sangning looked harmless, just a weak little girl. The three ghosts seemed to feel that they had someone to rely on. Although they looked at Chen Sangning with some fear, they were not scared to death.

Uncle Li glanced at Shen Sangning, then looked at Lin Xi: "Let's end this time. Although I don't know what you are, people outside the game can't affect the game..." Before he finished speaking, he saw the cards on the table move by themselves, and soon, they were stacked. His eyes showed shock, and he felt a huge force pressing on his shoulders.

Uncle Li instinctively turned around, trying to see what was pressing down on his shoulder, but when he turned around, he saw nothing. Unable to resist the invisible force, he could only follow it and sit down on the chair with a "thump". The two colleagues next to him were not much better, sitting down on the chairs almost at the same time.

They looked at Lin Xi and the female ghost floating behind her with surprise and fear, and finally realized that the situation was not good.

"Now, let's start the second round. This time everyone must behave well and not

"It's cheating!" Lin Xi clasped his hands together and let out a crisp clap. The sound was not loud, but it seemed to strike at the hearts of his three colleagues. Lin Xi had a smile on his face, but the corners of his mouth twitched slightly. It was obvious that he was forcing a smile out of anger.

These guys, how dare they just win and then leave? Dream on! Not to mention they won by cheating!

Lin Xi took a deep breath and sat down at the card table. She looked at her three colleagues and said, "Is it okay with me being the banker in the first round?"

The three of them looked at the female ghost floating behind her and shook their heads.

How dare they object? For now, they could only rely on their card skills to win a few more rounds, or let Lin Xi win a few rounds, so that Lin Xi would let them go. But they still didn't understand how the female ghost directly affected the card game.

Throw the dice, confirm the number, and draw the cards in front of you. After Lin Xi got the full deck, he saw the cards in front of him and fell into a moment of speechlessness. The cards were numbered by Shen Sang Ning, the dice were thrown by himself, and the cards in his hand were drawn by himself, but the result was still white in the east, south, west, north, and center, and he couldn't even connect the straights.

——Could it be that I am really too unlucky?

This thought vaguely popped up in Lin Xi's mind. No! She didn't admit it either! How could she be so unlucky? !

Shen Sangning tilted her head, and her floating body moved down a little. She stretched out her right hand, and her right hand circled Lin Xi, and her fingertips fell on the top of the first card on the left, and then she gently slid across the cards. Under her fingertips, the cards changed, and when her hand slid, Lin Xi's cards became completely different from before.

Lin Xi looked at her cards and confirmed that they were correct. She simply pushed them down in front of everyone. The three of them were horrified. Lin Xi announced the dish names in a resounding voice:

"Tianhe! Big Four Joys! The same color as the words! Four hidden carvings!"

This evening, there has never been a moment when Lin Xi's voice was louder than it is now. At this moment, she has avenged her previous shame!
