Yi Shuihan put away his cold expression, put on a joking smile, and said half-jokingly: "Don't do it next time, or else watch your fingers carefully."
As soon as the sense of oppression around her disappeared, Lin Daiyu suddenly felt her whole body relax. She was actually frightened by a man who was neither a man nor a woman. How could she lose her face?
"You, do you know who I am?" Lin Daiyu said angrily. She is the daughter of Shangshu Mansion. How has she ever experienced such humiliation?
"What does it matter to me who you are?" Yi Shuihan smiled lazily, looking at Lin Daiyu like he was looking at a clown.
"
Qianxue had no intention of embarrassing Lin Daiyu. Moreover, Lin Daiyu's father was powerful and could not defeat an official even in the 21st century, let alone in this hierarchical time and space.
"Ms. Lin, I wonder if you invite me here for anything other than dinner? If not, Qianxue will leave first."
Only then did Lin Daiyu remember her original purpose. She wanted Qianxue not to pester her cousin in the future.
"I will compete with you. Whoever loses will quit." Lin Daiyu said arrogantly. She is a well-known talented woman in the imperial city. She is good at playing, playing, chess, calligraphy and painting. She wants to discredit Qianxue, and she has no written evidence.
There are no witnesses, and even if she loses, she can retaliate at any time. The most important thing is that she has been engaged to her cousin since she was a child.
Qianxue's heart tightened, and then she sneered: "I have never taken your cousin seriously, and I don't want to compete with you, but you insist on competing with me. I, Qianxue, will always accompany you."
Lin Daiyu's eyes were full of anger. She just couldn't see Qianxue being so arrogant and couldn't see her cousin being so nice to Qianxue.
"Okay, I'll see you in Fengyi in three days. I hope Miss Qian won't break the appointment."
Yi Shuihan raised his eyebrows with interest and said with a smile: "Wait a minute, I wonder what Miss Lin wants to try?"
"Of course it's piano, chess, calligraphy and painting." Lin Daiyu said proudly. She knew that Qianxue couldn't play the piano and her handwriting was very ugly. As for chess and painting, I believe it wouldn't be much better.
"Okay, but the time is changed to seven days later. I wonder what Miss Lin thinks?" Yi Shuihan's eyes flashed with calculations. She estimated that Qianxue knew nothing about music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and she could tell that Qianxue still had lingering feelings for that cousin.
So she didn't establish a written record, fearing that Qianxue would regret it later, and she had other motives. No matter whether Lin Daiyu lost or won, she would be the winner in the end.
"Okay, see you in seven days." Lin Daiyu agreed immediately. She didn't miss those few days. She didn't believe that Qianxue could master the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting in seven days.
Lin Daiyu achieved her goal and left with her maid without even moving her chopsticks.
Qianxue was stunned at this point, "I'm not good at playing music, chess, calligraphy or painting. Lin Daiyu is a famous and talented woman in the imperial city. I'm bound to lose."
"Who said you would compete in chess, calligraphy and painting?" Yi Shuihan knocked Qian Xue on the head.
"Didn't you agree just now?"
"It will be enough if we don't compete in music, chess, calligraphy and painting until then." Yi Shuihan smiled, in a good mood, poured a glass of wine and started drinking.
Qianxue saw that Yi Shuihan had a foxy look on his face and his eyes were filled with calculations. Could she have been plotted by Yi Shuihan as well?
"Why are you paying attention?" Qianxue looked at Yi Shuihan warily.
"It's nothing. Our opportunity to make a fortune has come. Let's eat, eat, and celebrate."[
"What opportunity to make a fortune?" Qianxue was even more confused.
"Mr. Xue, don't forget what kind of business we are in, running a gambling house." Yi Shuihan glanced at Qian Xue.
