Qin Dan explained, her gaze warily fixed on Chen Xiao in the distance.
"Brother Lin Qiu, who is that lady?"
"You mean President Chen? She's the student council president of Longmen High School. She used to know your older sister. We just happened to run into each other today, so we're going for a stroll together."
"Just a slight connection with the eldest sister?"
"Yeah, what's wrong?"
"Then it's nothing."
Qin Dan breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this, thinking it was another case of a righteous cat stealing fish.
He seemed to be a stranger and shouldn't pose any obstacle to the older woman.
However, if she ever harbors any ill intentions, that's when I, her sister-in-law, will have to step in! No one will be allowed to steal our Qin family's son-in-law!
Lin Qiu, puzzled by the two little ones' strange expressions, didn't pay much attention and led them towards Qin Yunmo, who was coaxing Qian Hui in the distance.
"Class monitor, should we take them shopping together later?"
"no problem."
Qin Yunmo answered almost without thinking. This was the first time he had felt that these two little devils had become his most capable assistants. If he didn't make good use of them now, all the suffering he had endured over the years would have been for nothing.
"Hey lady, isn't that look at me like I'm just a tool a bit off...?"
Qin Xuan also noticed Qin Yunmo's little scheme, and the corner of his mouth twitched involuntarily.
But as if worried they might cause some trouble again, Qin Yunmo spoke to Ying Ziyan again—
"Ziyan, could you help keep an eye on them? My sister is a bit wild and always likes to run around. There are a lot of people around today, and I'm worried something might happen to them."
"Ah, I see."
Ying Ziyan didn't refuse, and looked at the two little ones in front of her with great interest.
However, her attention was more focused on Chie on the other side, whose cute face, similar to Lin Qiu's, made her like her immediately.
Today looks like my lucky day. The extremely troublesome Qin Yunmo finally has a worthy opponent. Ze Zhi, that philandering cat, is also entangled with the silly dog. Xiao Xi is completely suppressed by Qin Yunmo's two younger sisters.
As for the others, they weren't interested in that kind of thing, and now that even Lin Qiu's sister had appeared in front of him, it was simply a golden opportunity!
What are their names?
"The one in the blue dress is Qin Xuan, and the one in the red dress is Qin Dan. Xiao Xuan is more sensible, while Xiao Dan is the most mischievous; she needs to be kept in close watch."
"How can you introduce your younger sister like that, big sister! I'm perfectly well-behaved! Right, Brother Lin Qiu!"
Qin Dan was immediately displeased upon hearing this. She had sacrificed so much for their marriage, and they shouldn't be so ungrateful!
However, Qin Yunmo just glanced at her silently, as if to say, "Don't you have any self-awareness?"
Lin Qiu on the other side gave a perfunctory "hmm" and then stuffed the milk tea he had only taken a few sips into Qian Hui's small hand.
"Chie, is there anything else you'd like to play?"
"Have you had enough of fishing with toy fish? How about we try something else?"
Chie pointed expectantly to the board game area in the distance. She had gone there before Lin Qiu arrived and found it quite interesting.
There are still so many people here, it's a good opportunity for us to give it a try!
"Board games, huh...?"
Lin Qiu smacked his lips, showing a hint of interest. He hadn't played many games like this before, so he figured he might as well give it a try.
However, Qin Yunmo noticed that some of the players in the board game area had increasingly strange expressions, and he instinctively sensed something was amiss.
"Let's go take a look together, it looks quite interesting."
At this moment, Chen Xiao, who had finished listening to the recording and made a copy, also walked back with a radiant face, feeling light as a feather, and his smile was particularly bright.
Qin Yunmo looked at Chen Xiao, who suddenly seemed elated, with some confusion, and his unease grew stronger.
What did this guy do during the time I wasn't paying attention?!
However, Chie didn't give her a chance to think too much. She grabbed her little hand and excitedly ran towards the board game area.
"Boss, let's try that board game!"
As soon as they got close, Chie couldn't wait to point to the largest empty area and shout out. Her cute little face, full of anticipation, made the boss laugh.
"Okay, do you have enough people? The board games there require quite a few people."
"That's enough, there are a lot of people here!"
As Lin Qiu and the others walked over one after another, the boss was slightly taken aback, and then cast a sympathetic glance at Lin Qiu in a very subtle way.
Out of a sliver of goodwill, he confirmed it again—
"Little sister, are you sure you want to play that?"
"Uh-huh!"
"Okay then, let's go play. Just be careful not to break anything, and pay the bill after we're done."
"Okay!"
175 - A game that gradually leads everyone into a trap
"Chie, is this really suitable for us to play?"
Looking at the words "Sweet Home" printed on the board game box, Lin Qiu instinctively sensed something was amiss.
Qin Yunmo and the others standing nearby also felt a chill run down their spines and became somewhat uneasy.
Everyone else is having a great time in the other spots, but this place is completely empty. Even when a few groups of players come, they all leave very quickly. It doesn't make sense at all.
"The boss said it's suitable for multiple players, so it's fine, let's play this one!"
Chie didn't think too much about it and directly opened the box. In an instant, a large number of cards appeared in front of everyone.
"Let me look at the instructions... Take out the start and finish cards, shuffle the remaining cards together, and then arrange them face down in a random order to form a route connecting the start and finish points."
“All players start from the starting point, each with a minimum of 10,000 yuan. They take turns rolling the dice to start, and perform corresponding tasks or penalties based on the cards they step on. Once a player leaves their position, that card is removed from the game.”
"After all the players who survived to the end reach the finish line, the player with the most total assets wins."
"It looks pretty simple."
After glancing at the simple instruction manual, Wei Ran muttered nonchalantly, "It's just a simple dice game to see who gets to the finish line first."
Shang Yan casually pulled out a few cards and glanced at them. The contents written on them immediately stunned her—
During your honeymoon, your husband ran into your best friend and, without realizing it, had an inappropriate relationship. Overwhelmed with grief, he was hit by a truck while leaving the house and was rushed to the emergency room. He was charged 10,000 and forced to stop the affair for two rounds.
"..."
Shang Yan's eyelids twitched wildly. After silently putting the card back, he decisively shouted—
"President, is it too late to withdraw now?"
"Huh? Why quit? Let's all have some fun together."
If we keep playing like this, something really bad might happen! What the hell does this have to do with Sweet Home?!
Shang Yan was completely distraught, but out of respect for the president's expectations, he forced himself to look at Qi Xi, who was shuffling the deck, with a deeply worried gaze.
Unexpectedly, Qi Xi's shuffling technique was exceptionally skillful. Countless cards were frantically overlapping and misaligned in her hand, so fast that they even left afterimages.
Meanwhile, Qin Yunmo and Chen Xiao, as if they were in an empty room, took a stack of cards from Qi Xi's hand without any hindrance, and began to play with them, cutting and shuffling them with dazzling skill.
Seeing the three of them acting like pro gamers, Zezhi and the others couldn't help but twitch their lips.
Are we mortals really in a good position to fight against these three gods?
"Ah Xuan, does Sister Yunmo usually play cards?"
Chie asked expectantly, recalling how her mother had shuffled the cards like this when she played cards at home, winning so much that her father had been in debt for weeks.
"We've only fought once or twice. With the older sister's foundation, it's normal for her to be able to do this. I just didn't expect that the two of them could do this too."
Qin Xuan looked at the three people who had shuffled the cards with great surprise. After a round of competition, it was really not certain who was better or worse.
"Alright, let's leave it at that for now. Shang Yan, distribute the flags and start with Lin Qiu. Let's take turns rolling the dice clockwise."
Chen Xiao gave his instructions methodically, and the instant his gaze met Qin Yunmo's, an invisible tension seemed to emanate from them.
The winner of this game will definitely be yourself!
"Then I'll go first."
Seeing that no one objected, Lin Qiu took the dice and looked at the cards in front of him. Suddenly, he felt a chill run down his spine.
I rubbed my eyes with some suspicion, but the unease vanished instantly, as if it had just been my imagination.
Lin Qiu didn't think too much about it and casually tossed the ball, landing a solid six.
"Move forward six spaces. Let me see. This must be a random event."
After casually glancing at the cards, Lin Qiu finally looked at the pile of random event cards that had just been separated.
"Lin Qiu, you need to be mentally prepared..."
Shang Yan, who was closest to the person, offered a friendly reminder with a complicated expression.
The card I just looked at was a random event card, so you can imagine how outrageous the rest must be!
"Won't there be any punishments like car accidents here?"
"..."
Upon hearing this, Shang Yan's lips twitched, and for a moment she didn't know how to explain it to him.
A car accident...maybe the severity level is a bit too low?
With Shang Yan's reminder, Lin Qiu became nervous, swallowed hard, and tremblingly pulled out one of the cards.
What incident was it?
"On my birthday, I received a red envelope from my parents, a reward of one thousand yuan."
"That's it?"
"You don't necessarily want something to happen to me, do you?"
Lin Qiu glared at her irritably. Wouldn't it be better to just get a thousand for free?
When I celebrated my birthday at home, my dad gave me oranges instead, and then asked me for my secret stash of money!
Shang Yan realized his slip of the tongue, smiled awkwardly, and looked at the pile of cards with some suspicion.
Could it be that I was just unlucky and happened to draw that insane card?
"It's my turn next."
Chen Xiao took the dice and tossed them. As the dice rolled to a four, Shang Yan flipped over the cards for him, glanced at them briefly, and then covered them up without hesitation.
"Huh? What's wrong?"
"President, you should see for yourself."
Seeing Shang Yan's conflicted expression, everyone's curiosity was immediately piqued.
As Chen Xiao took the card, his eyelids twitched when he saw the ominous red exclamation mark on it.
As their gaze gradually moved downwards, a line of small print came into view—
"Because of my ignorance and naivety when I was young, I was deceived by a scumbag and lost all my family's wealth. In the end, the scumbag ran away with the money, and I fell into a state of depression and stopped going for a while."
"..."
"Guild leader, you also need to hand over all your money to the nearest player, which is Lin Qiu."
"Snapped!"
Chen Xiao's forehead immediately creased into a tic-tac-toe shape, and he glared at the card in his hand with extremely hostile eyes.
What the hell is going on?!
However, Qin Yunmo, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but smirk as he watched this guy get his comeuppance.
It's only natural that someone who rushes in without any preparation would fail, since I knew the trick to clearing the game from the very beginning.
Qin Yunmo sighed inwardly, his feet shifting under the table as if trying to get some luck from Lin Qiu, but the next second he seemed to bump into something and froze.
