"No need, we're not interested in that." Meng Wan directly and decisively rejected the invitation.
The man seemed surprised that Meng Wan would refuse, and looked at his group of friends who were watching the show.
Unexpectedly, these friends were also eager to watch the drama unfold, silently encouraging Su Yu.
"No, beautiful ladies, how about this: if you win, it's yours; if you lose, it's on me. Let's play one round. Look, my friends are all laughing at me. If you don't come over, I'll be laughed at for a whole year. You two beauties are kind-hearted, please help me out."
As he spoke, he beckoned to his friend, who immediately ran over with chips.
He put it on the table and put his arm around Su Yu's shoulder.
"Ladies, look, even our handsome guy said so, let's all have some fun together. We all know what our purpose is in coming to this gathering, there's no need for this, we're all here to have fun anyway."
One sentence made Xu Jiaojiao frown; she felt there was something implied in the words, making her uncomfortable.
Meng Wan showed no expression, picked up the chip and tossed it upwards, where it landed steadily on the back of her hand.
"Wow, looks like this beauty knows how to have fun." Seeing this, Su Yu became even more interested in Meng Wan.
"So, do you want to play?" Meng Wan looked at Xu Jiaojiao, and for some reason, she felt a domineering CEO taking his little wife out to play, with a sense of pampering.
"I don't know how," Xu Jiaojiao whispered in Meng Wan's ear.
"I'll teach you. Since you're already here, let's play a couple of rounds to pass the time."
Meng Wan stood up, her long dress swaying slightly with her movement, revealing her graceful figure.
Su Yu was momentarily blinded by the glare and instinctively reached out, but Meng Wan picked up a wine glass from the table and splashed it on Su Yu's face.
The wine was splashed all over his face, dripping down his cheeks and onto the floor. His custom-made casual clothes were soaked, and Su Yu wiped his face, looking at Meng Wan in disbelief.
"Hey! What are you doing? This is a bit much, isn't it? What are you pretending to be so high and mighty for?"
Su Yu's friends snapped out of their daze and started pointing fingers at Meng Wan. Other friends gathered around, and one of the girls handed Su Yu several tissues to wipe his face, not forgetting to glare at Meng Wan.
Faced with the attack from a group of people, Xu Jiaojiao quickly stood up, put her hand in front of Meng Wan, and stood in front of her.
Her pupils trembled slightly, her palms were wet, but she stood firmly in front of Meng Wan.
Meng Wan's eyes were gentle as she patted Xu Jiaojiao's head and pressed her hand down. Xu Jiaojiao turned around in confusion, but Meng Wan shook her head, indicating that she didn't need to be nervous.
"Do you know who I am?" Meng Wan asked with a smile, looking at the group of people surrounding her.
"Do you know who I am?! You won't listen to reason, so you'll have to suffer the consequences! What kind of good person would come here? What are you pretending to be so high and mighty for? Just because I flattered you a little, you think you're on top of the world?" Su Yu tore off his fake gentleman's mask, pointed at Meng Wan, and looked furious.
"Meng Wan." Compared to Su Yu's irritability, Meng Wan simply uttered her name calmly.
"Meng Wan? So what? Let me tell you..."
"Su Yu!" His companion reacted and tugged at Su Yu's hand, but Su Yu, caught up in the moment, shook him off.
His companion gritted his teeth and went forward to hug him again. Seeing that he could no longer control Su Yu, he hardened his heart and slapped him across the face.
Su Yu was completely bewildered, but his companions immediately had the others pull him away.
"I'm so sorry, I didn't expect Miss Meng to come to this little gathering. I'm so sorry for disturbing you. I'm so sorry."
His companion clasped his hands together and kept apologizing.
The surroundings were quiet, with many people whispering to their bewildered companions, who looked shocked and seemingly unable to believe it.
Seeing the sudden change in these people's attitudes, Xu Jiaojiao stared at Meng Wan's retreating figure, her eyes filled with shock.
Meng Wan seemed to have expected this, remaining calm throughout, and even when surrounded by people, her eyes showed no emotion.
"Let's play, roll the dice, I'll be the dealer."
Meng Wan made the final decision.
"Okay...okay."
Ouyang Hui, the companion who had grabbed Su Yu, immediately nodded. He didn't even dare to let Meng Wan walk over, but instead called a waiter to bring the things over.
Upon hearing Meng Wan's name, the people at the other tables stopped their gambling and gathered around.
Meng Wan is known for being mysterious in their circle. Although no one has ever seen her, everyone present, regardless of their family's business or social standing, has been warned by their elders.
Joining in the fun is one thing, but more than that, people want to see what kind of magic Meng Wan possesses that allows her to get to know so many top figures and bigwigs from all walks of life, and to make the elders in her family so wary.
The waiter quickly set the table, and before anyone knew it, Meng Wan had become the center of attention at the gathering.
"Watch closely."
Xu Jiaojiao knew that these three words were meant for her.
She sat down next to Meng Wan, her attention focused on Meng Wan's technique. But compared to the others' dazzling techniques, Meng Wan simply shook it casually and then placed it on the table.
"Three sixes," Meng Wan said first, and the others followed suit, holding up their numbers.
After two rounds, it was Meng Wan's turn again.
Meng Wan glanced at her dice, then stared intently into Ouyang Hui's eyes.
"Six sixes." The words caused an uproar.
Ouyang Hui swallowed hard; his forehead was now covered in sweat. He was the one who soloed the whole game when he was playing with his friends, but now, he felt an invisible pressure weighing on him, making it hard to breathe.
"Hui, open! How could there be six sixes? You've got this in the bag." Someone in the crowd urged Ouyang Hui.
