The card game continued in the courtyard.
Shen Li's playing style is unpredictable; she doesn't follow any rules at all, leaving Chu Yang and Zhou Yang completely bewildered.
For example, if you become the next mistress, she might just unleash a devastating attack.
For example, she interprets "three with two" as three with two pairs.
But every time, she gets exceptionally good cards, her luck is off the charts, and she wins with a barrage of attacks.
More than an hour later, Zhou Yang's face was covered with notes, making him look like a mournful bearded man, while Chu Yang's face was covered with no more notes, leaving only his eyes showing, making him look like a mop head.
Shen Li only had two notes stuck to her chin, and she would laugh every time she looked at them.
The full moon gradually rose high in the sky, the night was quiet, and from time to time, Xiao Lizi's clear, bell-like laughter could be heard from the courtyard.
Zhou Yang looked up at the moon and felt that, despite losing the card game and having his beard plastered on, he felt peaceful and comfortable.
How long has it been since I've had such a leisurely day?
She looked at Chu Yang, and saw him bring his face close to Shen Li's, whereupon another note was stuck to him.
He looked really funny, but his eyes were truly filled with doting affection for Shen Li.
Suddenly, I realized that this two-timing scumbag isn't so bad after all.
Then the scene of him saving me from drowning during the day involuntarily flashed through my mind.
His physique, his presence.
...Pah, why would I even think about that!
Zhou Yang shook his head, but for some reason, in a daze, the outline of the red-rumped monkey that he had never seen before but had the deepest contact with slowly overlapped with Chu Yang in front of him.
This...how is this possible!
You must be hallucinating.
"Sister Zhou Yang, Sister Zhou Yang?" Chen Li nudged her: "Want to go for the ultimate weapon?"
Zhou Yang snapped out of his daze, looked at the pair of royal flushes on the table, and asked in confusion, "Are you the landlord? You started with a royal flush?"
Shen Li nodded: "Yes, is that not allowed?"
Zhou Yang: "...You're awesome!"
Chu Yang had lost his temper: "I have another bad feeling."
Sure enough, Shen Li immediately countered with a nine-in-a-row straight.
Then came another nine-in-a-row.
She clearly got a nine-in-a-row...
Just then, Tony Fang brought over some noodles for a late-night snack, successfully diverting Little Pear's attention from playing cards, and the bizarre game of Dou Dizhu finally came to an end.
After having a late-night snack, it's getting late, time to wash up and go to bed.
The three of them lined up to take a shower and then went to their room.
The two rooms were adjacent, and Chu Yang first led Zhou Yang into one of them.
"This is where I slept when I was a child. It was quite simple, with a wooden bed. I used to wet the bed a lot, but don't worry, it's definitely been cleaned now."
Zhou Yang: "..."
You didn't have to say it, but you insisted on saying it anyway.
"Okay, I'm leaving now. Goodnight." Chu Yang said and walked out, closing the door behind him.
As Zhou Yang watched his departing figure, she felt a strange emptiness in her heart.
Hearing him and Shen Li chatting and laughing as they entered another room, he felt inexplicably irritated.
"What's wrong with me...?"
She lay down on the bed and looked out the window at the full moon hanging in the night sky.
A gentle breeze blew in, carrying a slight chill.
She was covered with sheets that smelled of sunshine, and although she felt quite comfortable, she just couldn't fall asleep.
The faint chirping of insects could be heard, along with the soft sounds of conversation from the next room.
Therefore, the soundproofing in this room is not very good.
Because she can hear everything being said clearly.
Then, Shen Li's slightly shy voice came: "Mm, you can play with my legs."
Zhou Yang: "!!!"
So proactive!
Little Pear's long, slender legs, which even she envied, were so white and delicate that she would gladly play with them.
This Chu Yang will definitely play around without any hesitation.
Zhou Yang, who already had trouble sleeping, was now even more unable to sleep.
The more I tried not to listen, the clearer the sound seemed.
And it was accompanied by Little Pear's voice.
"Damn it." Zhou Yang spat out.
She couldn't listen anymore, so she got up, left the room, and quietly went out into the yard.
Taking a deep breath of the night air, carrying the scent of mountain grass and trees, I finally felt a bit calmer.
She sat down in the rocking chair that Grandma Chu Yang usually sat in, and gently rocked back and forth, feeling quite comfortable and at ease.
Then I actually drifted off to sleep.
…
"Fell asleep already?"
In the room, Chu Yang looked at Shen Li, who was fast asleep in his arms, gently stroked her nose, and then moved her hand away.
Feeling stuck in this awkward situation, he decided to go out, wash his face, and get some fresh air to calm down.
After putting on his underwear, he left the room and noticed that the door to Zhou Yang's room was open as he passed by it.
Looking inside, I found that she wasn't there.
Where did she go so late? To the bathroom?
I searched all the way to the yard, and after walking around, I found someone lying on the rocking chair. I thought it was my grandmother sleepwalking over and lying on it.
Upon closer inspection, it was Zhou Yang.
And she slept quite soundly.
Seeing this, Chu Yang didn't bother her. Instead, he went back to his room, got a sheet, and gently draped it over her shoulders.
Then I took a stool and sat down next to it.
After all, the anger that had been stirred up by Xiaolizi hadn't yet subsided.
"Damn monkey..." Zhou Yang muttered in his sleep, his embroidered eyebrows furrowed as he murmured to himself.
"You despicable Chu Yang, let go of Xiao Li's leg!"
Chu Yang: "..."
"Shu'er, you'd better be more careful!"
Chu Yang: "..."
Then she shifted her body, turned her head to this side, and said in a soft, aggrieved tone, "You little monkey, if you don't come to me soon, I'm not going to talk to you anymore..."
Chu Yang sighed inwardly, suddenly feeling a pang of unease.
I also felt that this was a very unethical and unconscionable act.
“Sister Zhou Yang, actually… I am Red-Butt Monkey.” He spoke slowly.
Thinking Zhou Yang was asleep and couldn't hear, she suddenly opened her eyes.
What did you just say?
