What It’s Like Being a Vampire

Chapter 60 Fighting the Landlords

"Female 5" sitting in the living room saw Xiang Kun walking in, and stood up with Tang Baona, his expression unchanged.

But Xiang Kun still judged from the way she looked at him and the slight dilation of her pupils that she also recognized him.

"This is my cousin, Xia Libing, a top student at the Medical University, who has two master's degrees! Now she is doing an internship at the Affiliated Hospital of ** University."

Yang Zhen'er first introduced Xiang Kun to her cousin, and then said to her, "This is what I call 'Mr. Qiyu'! Although he is a programmer, he is very strong and has practiced kung fu!"

"I've said it all, I haven't practiced kung fu." Xiang Kun said helplessly.

"Okay, if you haven't practiced, you haven't practiced, then you are considered to be extremely talented and born with supernatural power!" Yang Zhen'er smiled and asked him to sit down, and then went to the refrigerator to get a drink.

After seeing Xiang Kun sitting down, Tang Baona asked, "Are you feeling better?"

"Okay, it's basically fine." Xiang Kun nodded, then glanced at her ankle: "What about you? Is your foot okay?"

Tang Baona stretched out her previously sprained foot, turned her ankle flexibly, and said, "I'm fine now, by the way, you carried me back earlier, and you haven't thanked you properly yet."

"You're welcome. Even if I wasn't there, there would still be people queuing up to carry you back that day. I could feel the envy and hatred in their eyes when they looked at me." Xiang Kun waved his hand with a smile.

Tang Baona gave him a blank look, didn't continue the topic, and instead asked, "What have you been up to these days? Are you looking for a new job? What you said before, related to pharmaceuticals and biology?"

"Oh, I didn't look for a job. I was thinking about the possibility of starting my own business. I had a simple idea." Xiang Kun said casually.

While talking, Yang Zhen'er came over with a drink and a plate of sliced ​​watermelon.

Seeing that he was handed a bottle of Evian mineral water, Xiang Kun swallowed his rejection and thanked him for taking it.

"Why did you suddenly think of playing cards?" Xiang Kun asked after opening the mineral water and taking a sip.

Tang Baona smiled and said: "We used to play cards together a lot, but in the past two years, everyone went abroad, worked, and started a family. There is not enough people. There is also this girl, Lao Xia, who always talks about playing with us. It's boring, I think we are too stupid, I think you are a programmer, you should be good at math, and you are probably good at playing cards..."

Yang Zhen'er also said: "Don't look at our family's Lao Xia at a young age, but a pervert with an IQ of 140... oh no, a genius... at the age of 14, several key universities wanted her, but she still didn't go, It was hard to go to the college entrance examination, and with the top three results in the province, I went to a famous medical university that I had never heard of. 'Ms. Saitama', although you are good at fighting, you may not be able to beat her at cards!"

Xiang Kun noticed that Xia Libing's eyes had been on him since he came in.

Of course, he didn't think that it was his masculine charm that made Xia Libing fall in love with him. His eyes were more of scrutiny and observation.

"I have two master's degrees... This is a real master!" Xiang Kun sighed, and then asked Xia Libing: "Excuse me, which two majors did Miss Xia study for master's degree?"

Xia Libing answered concisely: "Mental illness and mental hygiene, applied psychology."

Xiang Kun nodded thoughtfully.

Tang Baona disassembled two new decks of poker, handed them to Xia Li for ice washing, and then asked Xiang Kun, "Fighting the Landlord?"

"It's all right." Xiang Kun nodded.

Xia Libing's way of shuffling the cards looks very professional, just like the dealers in those casinos, it is actually quite pleasing to the eye - of course, the most important thing is that the person who shuffles the cards is beautiful.

While drawing cards, Xiang Kun asked, "Miss Xia is Miss Yang's cousin,

Then she should be younger than you, why did you call her 'Old Xia'? "

Tang Baona smiled and said: "Because she has been like a little adult since she was a child, either holding a book and reading, or sitting and listening to aunts and aunts chatting, never mischievous, even youth rebellious period, we all call her She is young and mature, so she is called 'Old Xia' before she knows it."

Yang Zhen'er next to him interjected: "Stop 'Miss Xia', 'Miss Yang', and 'Miss Tang', I almost get goosebumps when I hear that, you see we all call you 'Ms. Qiyu'. "

Xiang Kun nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll call you Zhener. By the way, Zhener, I heard from Nana that you work in a pharmaceutical company? Do you do research work?"

Yang Zhen'er shook the cards in his hand, blinked at Xiang Kun and said, "Play the cards first, if you win this game, you can ask the loser a question."

"Then what if I'm your teammate?"

Yang Zhen'er said: "Then you can also ask the loser, they both know my situation! If you are a landlord, you can ask one question alone! By the way, if you lose, we can also ask you question!"

Xiang Kun nodded: "Okay."

So their Fighting the Landlord has become a truth or dare, the loser has to answer the winner's question, must tell the truth, or choose to do something according to the winner's request, of course, what he does is not the same. It will be too outrageous, such as singing a song, telling a joke or something.

Fighting the Landlord Xiang Kun was at school before, and he played occasionally when he went back to his hometown during the Chinese New Year.

To put it bluntly, to play most of these card games well, apart from luck and basic card playing skills, the most important thing is the ability to memorize and count cards.

There are 108 playing cards in two decks, 33 for the landlord and 25 for each peasant.

You can judge the cards in the hands of opponents and teammates from the cards you have, the cards you have played, and the way others play cards, so as to play the order and combination of cards that best suit your own interests.

Xiang Kun used to memorize the cards pretty well, but now that his memory and calculation ability have been greatly improved after several mutations, it is naturally very easy to memorize the cards.

And while remembering the cards, he can also observe the expression changes of the person who played the cards and the other two at the same time.

At this distance, Xiang Kun could even hear the heartbeats of the other three and clearly feel their breathing rhythm.

Especially for Tang Baona and Yang Zhen'er, after playing cards until they are fully engaged, their mood swings are obvious, which can be judged not only from their expressions, heartbeat, and breathing, but also from the slight changes in their body odor when they are nervous or excited.

Xiang Kun sat at Yang Zhen'er's next house, and when Yang Zhen'er played a card, he could judge what card she had by noticing the emotional changes of Tang Baona who was his next house, and how he memorized the cards, and he should play a card. what card.

The only thing that made it difficult for Xiang Kun to obtain effective information through observation was Xia Libing who was sitting opposite him.

This genius Xueba with an IQ of 140 in Yang Zhen'er's mouth always had a calm expression when he played cards. Even if he got six aces of bombs, his heartbeat, smell, and breathing changed very little.

However, through the slight dilation and contraction of her pupils, Xiang Kun could still be sure that she was not completely free of mood swings.

Xiang Kun, who was the landlord in the first game, won the first game by a narrow margin. His cards were actually not good. If it wasn't for Yang Zhen'er as his master, he made a few obvious mistakes, even if he could roughly count The cards in the hands of the three of them cannot be won.

"Okay, 'Teacher Qiyu', you have won. If you have any questions, ask them! The little girl must know everything!" Yang Zhen'er sat upright and said to Xiang Kun.

"I would like to ask, what is the name of your company? What kind of work do you do in the company? Which direction does your company's pharmaceutical research mainly focus on? How many laboratories does your company have and what equipment do you have? You..." He He asked a dozen questions directly in one breath.

Yang Zhen'er rolled her eyes: "How many questions do you want to ask? Forget it, since they are all related to my work, I will answer them all. Well, I do financial work in the company..."
