He Zhichu's expression suddenly darkened, but it was only for a moment before he recovered his cool demeanor and said slowly, "Huo Shao is indeed an expert at bluffing people. Although I'm not as good as him, I didn't lose."
Therefore, he didn't have to embarrass himself by peeling walnuts for Huo Shaoheng …
According to the rules of Redstate Poker, forfeiting in the middle of the game was not considered a loss.
He was making reasonable use of the rules.
"This isn't just about bluffing. It involves the advanced theories of psychology, advanced mathematics, logic, and interpersonal relationships." Huo Shaoheng pushed the cards forward. "If I want to, I can play a royal flush."
It was just that Gu Nianzhi had been staring at his hand, so he didn't want to mess around …
According to Huo Shaoheng's usual habits, as long as it was a gamble, he would definitely cheat.
When the Special Operations Forces taught their agents how to gamble, they often said that gambling wasn't about cheating nine times out of ten, but about cheating ten times out of ten. There were no exceptions.
The difference lay in the level of deception.
Huo Shaoheng had taught Gu Nianzhi these tricks before, including how to play the Card of a Thousand …
Thinking about it, it was really the wheel of fortune. Once the disciple was taught, the master would not be able to cheat.
Huo Shaoheng couldn't help but reveal a happy expression as he thought about it.
The corners of Yin Shixiong's mouth twitched as he whispered, "Huo Shao, be reserved, be reserved. It was just a game of deception. Do you have to be so smug?"
Huo Shaoheng composed himself and rubbed his chin with one hand. "I'm smiling?"
"Do you need a mirror?" Yin Shixiong didn't stand on ceremony. "Why don't I ask Qiqi for her makeup mirror for you?"
Huo Shaoheng glanced at him coolly, and Yin Shixiong immediately deflated. He moved closer to Ma Qiqi to watch her shuffle the cards.
Gu Nianzhi had already looked away and was no longer staring at Huo Shaoheng. However, he was sitting next to her, so she couldn't completely ignore his interaction with Yin Shixiong.
Gu Nianzhi smiled and said to He Zhichu, "Professor He, you're actually confused because you're too concerned. If I had calmed down and calculated the cards, I wouldn't have been cheated. "
He Zhichu's face lit up instantly, and the tenderness in his shimmering almond-shaped eyes almost overflowed.
He looked at Gu Nianzhi and smiled as he said slowly, "Sure, but I'm not very good at counting cards. Nianzhi, teach me when you have time. "
"Yes, no problem. I'll tell you about it when we get back to school. "Gu Nianzhi agreed immediately.
Huo Shaoheng's expression darkened. He stood up and said, "You guys play. I'm going out for a smoke."
Gu Nianzhi didn't even look at him as she continued to explain to Ma Qiqi and He Zhichu how to count the cards.
Yin Shixiong was eavesdropping from the side. He was laughing so hard that his intestines were about to fall out. However, he didn't dare to go out and look at Huo Shaoheng's expression. He could only take the remote control and turn on the TV in the chess room.
No matter which channel he switched to, it was actually broadcasting today's Prime Minister's inauguration ceremony.
Gu Nianzhi got up to pour tea and glanced at the TV. She happened to see the various groups of people entering the venue.
The entrance of the National Center for the Performing Arts was covered with a large red carpet, winding down from the steps and extending far away.
The streetlights on both sides of the sidewalk were as bright as day, illuminating the scene clearly.
Next to the entrance of the Grand Theater was a piece of land reserved for the reporters. There were countless reporters there, some carrying video cameras, some holding cameras, and some holding recording pens, constantly asking for information about the guests.
There were also some people squatting on the side counting the luxury cars.
The crosswalk at the entrance of the National Center for the Performing Arts was blocked with railings, and a line of police officers stood in front to maintain order. On the other side, many ordinary citizens were allowed in to share the joy of the Prime Minister's inauguration and create a celebratory atmosphere.
Of course, these onlookers didn't come in randomly. They had all obtained admission tickets through the lottery ceremony on the Prime Minister's Office's official website. Then, they were authenticated with their real names and were allowed in after a background check by the Secret Service.
These people came from all over the Huaxia Empire. They covered a vast area and were very representative of sharing joy with the people.
…
Gu Nianzhi poured tea and returned to see the doors of the luxury cars open on the TV. Important people from the Huaxia Empire's military, political, and business sectors stepped out one after another.
She actually recognized a few of them.
For example, the person who had just gotten out of a bulletproof military vehicle with a red flag was the white-haired General Ji.
The silver-haired old man who was walking beside him and whispering to him was Speaker Long.
The tall, voluptuous, and beautiful woman walking with the Minister of the Interior, Bai Jiancheng, was his daughter, Bai Yueran. She was also the director of the Special Operations Forces' legal department.
Then, she saw the Huo family.
Huo Shaoheng's father, Huo Guanchen, was dressed in a military uniform. He was in his fifties but had taken good care of himself. He looked like he was in his early forties at most.
Although he was old, time had treated him well. The accumulation of time had added a mature and steady aura to him. He had the unique toughness of a soldier amidst his elegance.
Huo Guanchen and a young woman walked beside a hale and hearty old man.
Gu Nianzhi recognized that the hale and hearty old man was Huo Shaoheng's grandfather. The young woman was Huo Jialan.
It turned out that they had returned from France to attend the Prime Minister's inauguration.
Huo Jialan was wearing a Dior couture evening gown. She looked back with a smile on the red carpet. Her eyes were full of confidence and pride.
The scene was quite interesting to watch.
Gu Nianzhi simply held her tea and sat on the sofa to watch TV.
"Nianzhi, what are you watching? You're not playing anymore? "Ma Qiqi called out to her from the card table.
Gu Nianzhi replied without turning around, "I'm watching the Prime Minister's inauguration today. You guys come watch too. This time, it's like the entertainment industry. It looks more lively than before, but it's a bit low-class. "
"That's easy to understand." He Zhichu walked over to sit beside her and said dryly, "The new Prime Minister's wife has a good relationship with the media. She likes this kind of scene."
Gu Nianzhi nodded. "Is it Cai Songyin? She's been on the news feed for the past few days. "
Actually, Tan Dongbang and Cai Songyin's daughter, Tan Guiren, was also on the news feed. Gu Nianzhi didn't want to mention her name, so she pretended she didn't exist.
"Our new Prime Minister's wife is quite pretty." Ma Qiqi also came over and sat on the carpet in front of the sofa with a teddy bear in her arms. She suddenly pointed at the TV and said, "Look, isn't that the new Prime Minister's family?!"
A black Cadillac limousine slowly drove over to the side of the red carpet under everyone's anticipation.
Not only were the reporters excited, but the crowd behind the railings on both sides of the road was also in an uproar.
The scene became a sea of cell phones. Everyone was holding up their phones to take pictures of the Cadillac limousine.
Cai Songyin, Tan Dongbang, and Tan Guiren sat in the car but didn't immediately open the door to leave.
Tan Guiren asked Cai Songyin in confusion, "Mommy, we're already here. Aren't we getting out?"
"There's no rush." Cai Songyin also wore a bright red fishtail dress that revealed half of her fair shoulders and arms. Because of the cold weather, she also wrapped a mink scarf around her neck. "We'll go out after the helicopter responsible for the live broadcast arrives. That way, the camera angle will be the best. Our daughter will be the center of attention today, so we must have the best appearance. "
As Cai Songyin spoke, she adjusted the fox fur shawl around Tan Guiren's neck. "Little Darling, are you cold?"
Little Darling was Tan Guiren's pet name.
"No." Tan Guiren thought to herself that the car was so warm, so how could she be cold?
After a while, Cai Songyin looked at her watch and felt it was about time. Just as she was about to open the door to leave, she suddenly noticed a commotion outside the car.
This commotion was even louder than when their car appeared in front of the National Center for the Performing Arts.
Could someone more important than them have arrived?
Cai Songyin didn't believe it.
Tonight was a night that belonged to the three of them. She wanted to see who would be so untactful.
Cai Songyin looked behind the car with a cold expression.
Not far from them, a pearlescent blue Bentley Mulsanne slowly drove over.
The mysterious pearlescent blue color was as blue as the sea. It was eye-catching the moment it appeared and instantly outshone the standard Cadillac they were sitting in.
This was a real luxury car!
And looking at the nameplate on the door, it was probably custom made …
Cai Songyin's expression darkened.
Just as she was about to open the door to get out, she saw the door of the Bentley open as well.
A woman wearing a red fishtail dress leisurely walked out of the car.
She stood on the red carpet just like that. The moon and stars in the sky seemed to be ashamed to compete with her beauty as they quietly snuck into the clouds.
Even the bright streetlights dimmed because of the woman's beauty.
The noisy entrance of the National Center for the Performing Arts fell silent just like that.
Everyone's gazes were attracted by this beautiful woman who seemed to be able to shine.
All the cameras were pointed at her, and all the phones and cameras only had her in their sights.
After a while, she raised her hand and waved elegantly at everyone. Then she turned to look at the Cadillac that Cai Songyin and the others were sitting in. She revealed a faint smile.
This smile broke the clouds and the moon appeared. The east wind blew through the thousands of flowers and trees. Looking for her in the crowd for thousands of times, they suddenly looked up and saw that the person was right there in the bright lights.
Everyone's idea of a beauty was different, but at that moment, almost everyone present was thinking that this was the so-called beauty.
Cai Songyin saw the woman's outfit clearly at that moment, and her entire face darkened.
She realized that she was almost wearing the same outfit as the woman!
The only difference was that her fishtail dress revealed half of her shoulder and one arm, while the woman was wrapped up tightly …
Cai Songyin looked at her slightly plump and round arm and suddenly felt very uncomfortable.
What was even more annoying was that the woman came out first. She came out later, giving the audience the impression that she was imitating someone else!
