Chapter 36: There Can Never Be Too Much Deception In War

The more he said this, the more they got so angry that they wanted to beat him, and the more curious they were about the cards in their hands. They both began to urge them to show it.
Su Tanqing had always been impatient, and curiosity was at work, so she couldn’t bear it anymore. She simply got up, propped the table with one hand, and reached out to grab the cars in Nan Yan’s hand. “Hey, it’s just cards, so stop stalling. Is it something shameful?”
Nan Yan didn’t hide, and let Su Tanqing snatch it. With her hands empty, Nan Yan looked at Fu Jingheng. “Little Uncle…I think…we might be beaten.”
“They dare not.”
Sure enough, after Su Tanqing spread out the five cards she had snatched from Nan Yan on the table for public display, everyone fell silent. Staring at the five cards, they froze.
It was just two spades threes and a pair of spades kings plus a heart J. These cards couldn’t be connected, nor were they of the same colour. They could go with Ji Ye’s three hearts.
With these cards, Fu Jingheng could actually act so smug and assured, and he even gained the upper hand twice. He was basically playing mind games with them. How humiliating for them!
They were too hasty.
In the face of their resentful and angry gazes, Fu Jingheng was still calm and composed. Under the gazes of everyone present, he reached out to take his valuable pen back from the table and inserted it into the pocket of his suit jacket.
“Old Fu, you are too shady! You actually scammed us.” Lin Yang looked at him very resentfully. The pen that almost became his was taken back just like that.
“That’s it, you’re too shady.” With Lin Yang taking the lead to condemn him, the others followed along.
Fu Jingheng still calmly dusted his legs that didn’t even have any dust. “There can never be too much deception in war, so I’m flattered.”
“We didn’t praise you. We’re condemning your despicable deceit.” Su Tanqing was so angry that she was about to have a cerebral haemorrhage. When she thought about how she lost her bracelet, she felt extremely anguished.
Ji Ye also chuckled angrily, then sighed helplessly. “Lao Fu, because of our friendship, let me remind you. If you cheat us like this, you will be beaten to death by us sooner or later. To be honest, in life, being alive is more important than anything else, isn’t it?”
He used this bluffing trick smoothly with ease, and they were actually deceived by him. In the end, they were the ones lacking in confidence and were deterred by his assured aura.
“To live, you also need fun.” Fu Jingheng took all the trophies on the table and checked them one by one. “Ah-Yang, this car should be the one you just bought last year right? Ah-Ye, this watch is also Heishlei’s new edition. As for Ah-Ye’s villa…”
“It’s at Hucheng West Guanlan Community, and was just renovated.” Xun Ye sighed and looked at the expression in Fu Jingheng’s eyes as he helplessly answered. He himself hadn’t even lived in the house that long yet! He was in extreme pain.
Nan Yan actually wanted to stay away from Fu Jingheng at this time. His attitude and tone were really hateful. She was a little worried that she would get caught in the crossfire if they started fighting later. Speaking of which, she herself had the suspicion of being an accomplice to him just now.
She thought it was better to stay away from someone as cunning and treacherous as him. Otherwise, one day, she might get conned by him yet still be unaware and even help him count the money!
While Nan Yan was cursing him out in her heart, Fu Jingheng suddenly dangled those keys, bracelets, and various other things in front of her. Nan Yan looked at him in bewilderment. “Little Uncle…what are you…?”
“You deserve them, but…” As he spoke, he deliberately picked out Ji Ye’s watch. “This is a men’s model, and Ah-Ye has already worn it. It’s not suitable for you, so…”
