253 A Trap: Part 1
Old master Le laughed and scolded Second Brother Le.
“You’re really good at scheming, aren’t you? You’re thinking of winning our money to buy flowers and present them to Buddha.”
Zhai Jing pursed his lips when he heard what they said. His desire to win was incited.
If the money he won today was all for Le Wan, then he wouldn’t give up this opportunity.
Another round of cards started and Zhai Jing’s cards were broken by Big Brother Le again. He finally knew what the problem was.
Big Brother Le and Papa Le had colluded to set up a game for him. It was clearly a good set of cards, but to break their cards, he had to tear them apart.
The two of them joined forces to fight one on one. Even the smart Zhai Jing had a hard time dealing with them. On the other hand, Master Le, who was sitting opposite him, seemed to not have noticed the abnormality on the table and was happily counting the chips he had won.
Zhai Jing and the people at the table were at war. Both sides exchanged blows and Old Master Le gained the upper hand.
Although he didn’t win many rounds, he won the most because of his low number of cards.
At this time, Little Brother Le and the bodyguard came back with a lot of things. Grandma Le looked at the time and reminded,
“It’s very late. Let’s play one last round and then disperse.”
Big Brother Le looked at the chip box behind him. Other than Old Master Le, he was the one who had won the most tonight.
He glanced at Zhai Jing.
“For this last round, let’s add another bet on top of the chips.”
Papa le’s interest was piqued when he heard that.
“What’s the bet?”
“Didn’t we agree at dinner that we’ll go fishing together tomorrow? We’ll also go to the newly developed Island next door at night. But didn’t they receive a notice tonight that there was going to be a meeting between the owners of this villa area? It just so happens that we need one person to participate.” Big Brother Le looked around the card table.
“The one who loses this round will attend the meeting.”
That’s right, the villa they were in now was the property that Papa Le had bought previously. Since they were going to send Grandpa Le and Grandma Le to the Southern continent, they decided to stay here for a few days, look at the sea, and dive.
The owners’ Committee would be held a few times a year, but since the Le family rarely lived here, they had never attended it. This time, they had only happened to meet.
It didn’t matter if he participated or not, but now that Big Brother Le had specifically mentioned it, everyone at the table knew that he was targeting Zhai Jing.
If Zhai Jing lost this round, not only would he have the least chips in his hands, but he would also have to represent the Le family to attend the Property Committee tomorrow. In that case, he wouldn’t be able to see Le Wan for the whole day.
Le Wan had also guessed Big Brother Le’s intention. When she saw Zhai Jing frowning, she went up to him and asked in a low voice,
“Do you need any help?”
Before Zhai Jing could say anything, Big Brother Le stopped her.
“Baby, the people outside the venue can’t help. Otherwise, it will be considered cheating.”
“I’m just asking, is it not allowed?” Le Wan made a face at him.
Second Brother Le imitated her and lay on Big Brother Le’s back. He pinched his throat and asked,
“Big brother, do you need any help?”
Big Brother Le felt goosebumps all over his body.
“Get lost.”
Le Wan was so angry that her face turned red. She patted Zhai Jing’s shoulder and said,
“Look at how arrogant he is. We must win this round. Let’s see if he can still smile then.”
Zhai Jing turned around and patted her hand.
“Okay, we’ll definitely win.”
Then he lowered his head and counted the chips.
“Fortunately, although I’m in last place now, I should only have three chips less than Uncle Le. Even if I don’t win this round, as long as I don’t lose, I won’t be in last place.”
When Papa Le heard this, he suddenly felt a sense of crisis. He had promised to go diving with his wife. If Zhai Jing took the opportunity to overtake him, he would have to break his promise. Therefore, he couldn’t lose this round.
As soon as Big Brother Le heard Zhai Jing’s words, he knew that he was trying to sow discord and tear apart the father-son alliance.
Logically speaking, such an obvious trick wouldn’t work. However, when Zhai Jing used this last card and looked at Papa Le’s serious expression, he knew that he had used this method in the right direction.
Sure enough, Papa Le chose not to sacrifice himself to build a bridge for Big Brother Le this time. Instead, he was determined to win the game himself, and the alliance between the father and son was broken.
