461 Card Cheating

As soon as they entered the house, everyone changed into slippers at the entrance. After putting down their bags, they collapsed on the soft sofa.

As they rested, they discussed the flower language of the flowers they had seen today. They were all smiles and very happy.

“There are no catkins rising because of the wind, only sunflowers facing towards the sun. Have you heard of this saying?”

“I know this. It’s the flower language of the sunflower, right? I’ve checked this information before. It’s said that it’s the national flower of Ukraine. It’s a flower that yearns for the light and brings beautiful hope to people.”

“Yes, it yearns for the light. I have a story here. Legend has it that in ancient times, a farmer’s daughter was called Ming Gu. She was abused by her stepmother in all kinds of ways and was better off dead.”

“Once, Ming Gu did something wrong and angered her stepmother. When she was asleep at night, her stepmother dug out her eyes.”

“Ming Gu woke up from the pain and broke out of the door to escape. Unfortunately, because she didn’t receive timely help, she bled to death not long after. After she died, a plate of fresh yellow flowers bloomed on her grave and faced the sunlight all day.”

“This beautiful yellow flower is the sunflower. The sunflower expresses the meaning that Ming Gu yearns for the light and hates darkness. This legend motivates people to hate violence and darkness, and pursue the light.”

After hearing Ye Xin’s words, the other sisters looked sad and sighed.

“This story is a good story, but the person is so pitiful.”

“Poor Ming Gu. Her life is too tragic. That stepmother really won’t die a good death. She’s too cruel.”

“Sigh, just treat it as a story. However, if this is really a story that was made up, I don’t think it’s a good analogy. There are many fables to motivate people to hate violence and yearn for the light. This story is too cruel. It hurts to listen to it.”

“Maybe it’s not a story. Who can say for sure? Even in reality, such things happen. Didn’t the news last time say that a stepmother abused her daughter and directly abused her to death? Moreover, she even dug up her grave after she died. How tragic.”

“Alright, alright, let’s not discuss this. It’s too uncomfortable to hear too much about this.”

“Sigh, indeed. Let’s talk about something else.”

“Rose, do you have any stories? I have one here. It’s a legend, in the distant…”



When Ye Xuan heard his sisters discussing Ming Gu, he felt a sense of sadness in his heart. Was this world good or bad? It was simply rotten.

Humans would have desires when they were alive. With desires, there would be conflicts. Desires also included jealousy and hatred. One could never imagine what kind of seeds were planted in the depths of a person’s heart and what kind of desires were hidden.

One also didn’t know what would become of people without moral laws and treaties to limit them.

The only thing one could know was that although this world was very gray, it also had beauty.

Furthermore, one would know that they wouldn’t become like that. They would be like a sunflower that faced light and hope to dispel the dark violence.



Ye Xuan shook his head and dispersed the thoughts in his heart. He was old and thought too much.

It was only past eight o’clock, but he felt a little tired and wanted to have a good sleep.

Then, he got up. Just as he took a step or two, he was stopped by his sisters.

“Little Brother, come and play poker with us. It’s still so early. It’s so boring.”

“Come on, little brother. We’re short of one person.”

“It’s 8:30 pm now. We can go to bed after playing for an hour or two. Come over, Little Brother.”

“We’re too bored playing among ourselves. Come, little brother. Show us your card skills. We’ll definitely beat you this time.”

Ye Xuan smiled and turned his head.

“I don’t want to play. It’s boring. Even if I play, you guys won’t be able to win. I win every time. It’s so boring to always win. It’s like playing a video game. There’s no competition at all. I don’t want to play with you guys.”

When the sisters heard this, they felt deeply mocked. They clenched their fists and spoke indignantly.

“There will always be times when we’re lucky! There will also be times when you’re unlucky, young brat. I don’t believe that your luck can always be so good. You can’t win at cards every time!”

“That’s right! You’re so lucky, yet you’re still pretending. Come over quickly. This time, I’ll definitely beat you, young brat.”

“I don’t believe that my luck is still so bad this time that I will grab lousy cards. What goes around comes around. It’s our turn to win this time.”

“I feel like my hands are glowing now. My luck is definitely good. I’ll definitely get good cards.”

“Young brat, come over quickly. Aren’t you afraid that the wind will cut your tongue? I’ll go get the soap and wash my hands for ten minutes. Let’s see how arrogant you can be. Hmph!”

His sisters’ unconvinced expressions made Ye Xuan happy, but at the same time, he spoke helplessly.

“This is not a matter of luck. It’s useless to rely on luck. Haven’t you realized the seriousness of the matter? You’ll know after I demonstrate it to you.”

As Ye Xuan spoke, he came to the coffee table and sat down. He picked up the poker cards on the table, shuffled them a few times, and placed them in front of him. He shrugged and spoke.

“You can randomly take a card and compare its value. No matter which card I take, it’ll be an Ace. Do you believe me? You can take a card for me. It doesn’t matter. It’ll be an Ace anyway.”

The sisters naturally didn’t believe him. Ye Fei took out a card and looked at it. Seeing that it was a five of clubs, she handed it to Ye Xuan.

“I’ll give you this card. I don’t believe you can change the card out of thin air.”

Ye Xuan smiled and picked up the poker card that Ye Fei handed over. Without even looking at it, he flipped it on the table with a bang. On it was an Ace of Clubs, and that five of Clubs was nowhere to be seen.

Seeing this, Ye Fei was shocked. She pointed at Ace of Clubs and exclaimed.

“It’s changed! It’s changed! The Five of Clubs has become the Ace of Clubs! Oh my god, how did you do it? Where did the Five of Clubs go? It’s clearly the same card. I didn’t see you change your card. Why did it suddenly disappear?”

The other sisters were also shocked. They looked at the Ace of Clubs lying quietly on the table and then at Ye Xuan, who had nothing on his hands.

For a moment, they were speechless. It was simply like magic. It was like the God of Gamblers on television. He changed the appearance of the card after flipping it over. How did he do it?

Seeing everyone’s puzzled faces, Ye Xuan smiled and spoke.

“Like I said, it’s not about luck at all. This deck is new. It’s easy to find the position of the Ace. I took it out when I was shuffling the cards and clamped it on the back of my hand by hand.”

“Because of the angle, you can’t see it. When my Fifth Sister handed the Five of Clubs to me, I instantly took the Ace of Clubs from the back of my hand and changed it. Then, I instantly placed the Five of Clubs on the back of my hand.”

“So no matter what, my card is still an Ace. You can never win. As for this, it’s called card cheating.”
