How could Wu Jiefang not be anxious when he saw that he had lost the first round and that there was still 1500 RMB?
He roared at Mi Xaing 'er, "You, you cheated!"
Mo Dongyang didn't spoil him and replied, "Bullsh * t!"
He narrowed his eyes and sneered, "You said she cheated? Don't you have people around you? There are so many pairs of eyes here. Who can tell you how you cheated? If you can't, I won't take this lying down. You lost and want to deny it, don't even think about slandering me! "
Wu Jiefang ran out of steam when he heard that.
He had watched Mi Xaing 'er shuffle the cards with his own eyes. He knew very well that even if the other party was a veteran in the casino, if she wanted to cheat, she wouldn't be able to hide from his eyes.
However, he looked at it three times and didn't find any signs of cheating. The only strange thing was … Mi Xaing 'er paused every time she shuffled the cards, as if she was memorizing the cards.
Memorizing the cards?
Wu Jiefang immediately denied this possibility.
This was basically an impossible task!
A normal person with a normal brain wouldn't be able to accurately remember the position of each card when the cards were shuffled … unless Mi Xaing 'er was superhuman.
It was normal for him to think this way.
However, he forgot a sentence: There is always someone better than you. The world is big, and there are all kinds of strange things.
Mi Xaing 'er really had the ability to memorize the cards … There was a reason why she asked for new cards. This would help her to grasp the position of each card.
Ever since the day Mo Dongyang made this bet with her, Mi Xiang 'er had been practicing at home for a few days … She originally had a photographic memory, and after practicing shuffling the cards, she could basically reach the level of "forcibly memorizing the tablets". The only fly in the ointment was that her speed was a bit slow. In her mind, she had to remember the first shuffle of cards clearly, and then shuffle them and rearrange them.
The process of "calculating" in her mind …
Ordinary people would definitely not be able to do it. Only someone with an extremely high IQ like her could do it flawlessly after practice.
Since it was purely a "forced memory", there was no cheating in the technique. Of course, Wu Jiefang couldn't see anything.
However, he wasn't someone who was easy to deal with. The moment he realized that something wasn't right, he immediately came up with a new idea. "That's right, Master Mo. I didn't manage to get hold of her weakness. My skills aren't as good as hers, so I should keep my mouth shut and not say anything! Then … I'll shuffle the cards this time, okay? "
Mi Xaing 'er could not refuse this suggestion. For the sake of fairness, it was normal to shuffle the cards.
He could only nod.
Wu Jiefang reached out and opened a new deck of cards. It was the same procedure. First, check the cards. Mi Xaing 'er carefully remembered the position of each card. The next step was to closely observe Wu Jiefang's actions.
Wu Jiefang shuffled the cards faster than her. To be honest, Mi Xaing 'er found it difficult to remember … Suddenly, she felt a movement in her stomach, followed by a faint pain.
She bent over slightly and didn't dare to speak. She continued to stare at the cards.
Feng Xiuzhu was attentive. He noticed that Mi Xaing 'er was a little strange. He immediately bent over and asked softly, "What's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell? "
When he said this, Mo Dongyang also felt a little scared … He knew that Mi Xaing 'er's pregnancy was a big deal with Xu Jingya. It was much bigger than his little brickyard. "Xiao Mi, if you're not feeling well, tell me quickly. We'll go to the hospital now!"
Mi Xaing 'er gritted her teeth. "One or two minutes won't make a difference!"
Then, she sat up straight and raised her chin at Wu Jiefang. "You've shuffled the cards three times. That should be enough, right? For the sake of fairness, I'll go first this time? "
She wanted to end this quickly!
This …
Wu Jiefang couldn't find fault with her!
He could only nod his head.
Mi Xaing 'er added, "Before we draw the cards, I'll ask you one last time. If I win this time, you won't come up with any more tricks, right? You'll admit the result of this bet, right? "
Wu Jiefang blinked his eyes. He understood … Best of three! If Mi Xaing 'er won this time, he wouldn't have any more chances. He would have to give up the brickyard.
However …
The bet was already half done. Now that he was riding a tiger, he couldn't back out and act shamelessly.
He hardened his heart and stomped his feet. "Fine! If you win this time, I have nothing to say. I'm willing to give up the brickyard! "
He placed the cards on the table and rubbed his thighs under the table. He was nervous.
Mi Xaing 'er slowly stretched out her right index finger … and lightly scratched the playing cards a few times. She seemed to be hesitating.
Everyone in the room looked at her actions. Although it was only a blink of an eye, it felt like a century.
Finally …
Mi Xaing 'er pinched a card with two fingers. She didn't open it and left it on the table. She stood up and walked out.
Feng Xiuzhu saw this and quickly chased after her.
Wu Jiefang was impatient. He didn't care about anything else. He grabbed the card and looked at it … Oh my god, it was the ace of hearts again.
He looked at Mi Xaing's back as if he was looking at a ghost … All the hair on his body stood up. He couldn't believe that there was such a "magical" person in the world.
Mo Dongyang smiled crookedly and patted his shoulder twice. "Wu Jiefang, you must accept your loss. I'll come over tomorrow to take over the brickyard!"
He casually put the envelope with money back into his pocket and laughed. "Wu Jiefang, I'll say it again. As long as you give me more bricks, I'll cover your expenses. I won't forget to pay for your cigarettes and alcohol!"
He turned around and walked out of the room quickly. He caught up with Mi Xaing 'er and looked at her sideways. "How are you feeling? Do you need to go to the hospital? "
To be honest …
Using one's brain was definitely a "physical activity".
Mi Xaing 'er felt that the tearing pain in her stomach was getting worse. She was really worried. To her, the safety of this child was more important than anything else. She had to make sure that nothing would go wrong. "Okay, Brother Mo, take me to the hospital!"
Mo Dongyang knew that Mi Xaing 'er wasn't a pretentious person. Since she said that she wanted to go to the hospital, it meant that it was quite serious. He quickly ran into the car and started the engine. Feng Xiuzhu helped to put Mi Xaing' er in the back seat. He put his arm around her shoulders and let her lean on him comfortably.
Mo Dongyang made sure that both of them were seated properly in the rearview mirror. He then stepped on the accelerator and the Jeep went straight to the hospital.
When they arrived at the hospital …
Feng Xiuzhu helped Mi Xaing 'er into the emergency room. When they saw that it was a pregnant woman, they immediately transferred her to the gynecology department.
When Mo Dongyang saw this, he was a little uncertain. He quickly called Xu Jingya.
When Xu Jingya heard the news, she felt as if a hundred trains could run through her head … She didn't know how she got out of the door or how she got into the hospital. Anyway, she only felt a little more awake when she arrived at the door of the obstetrics and gynecology department.
She took a deep breath and pushed the door open to enter.
She saw Mi Xaing 'er lying on the hospital bed with a pale face. She had one hand on her slightly bulging belly and her legs were half propped up. Although she saw her from the corner of her eye, she didn't dare to move. She only stretched out a hand weakly.
Xu Jingya immediately ran over and held Mi Xaing 'er's small hand. She said urgently, "Girl, how are you feeling?"
Feng Xiuzhu answered from the side, "The doctor said that Mi Xaing 'er is a little mentally and physically exhausted. It's affecting the baby in her belly. There are signs of a miscarriage and she's now in the observation period …"
Xu Jingya felt as if the sky was about to collapse. However, in order not to let Mi Xaing 'er worry, she still put on a big smile and said in an exceptionally calm voice, "Xiang' er, don't worry. You and Tiger's baby won't be that weak! It will definitely be fine! "
Mi Xaing 'er choked with sobs. "Mom! I'm sorry! I wasn't careful! You have to protect the baby. I'd rather exchange my life for the baby's safety … "
Xu Jingya glared at her. "Silly girl, don't talk nonsense! Without you, there won't be a baby. To me … both of you are equally important. I want to protect you and the baby. Neither of you is allowed to get into trouble! Don't worry, I'll be here with you. The three of us will fight side by side. We'll definitely get through this! "
**
At the end of December in 1977 …
Yun Jingting slowly got off the train and stood upright on the platform. She looked up at the gloomy sky. It looked like it was going to snow.
Gu Dalong ran over from afar and gave her a military salute cheerfully. "Regiment Commander, congratulations. You're finally back in the provincial capital!"
After a pause, he quickly added, "Today is December 26th. It's your 30th birthday …"
Before he could finish speaking, he saw Yun Jingting's gaze fixed on the platform opposite them. Her expression was complicated. There was surprise, surprise, and a hint of pain.
Gu Dalong quickly turned around. Before he could see anything clearly, he heard Yun Laohu growl, "Mi Xaing 'er? It's Mi Xaing 'er! Wait a minute … "
----- Digression —
Oh my god, it's four o 'clock!
Tiger and Mi Xaing 'er have both returned to the provincial capital. They're going to meet, right? What about Mi Xaing 'er's baby and Xu Jingya? And what about Jiang Tingting? What's going to happen?
I'll tell you slowly! I'll tell you one by one!
