Chapter 159: First Sight of the Captain

Liu Minghao stood a few steps behind Jason, did not listen to the conversation between the two, but looked at the luxurious chess and card room in front of him. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

This is located on the west side of the first-class banquet hall, the cascading curtains block the view, creating a relatively closed space, you can see many people sitting around the table, swallowing clouds and mist, talking in a low voice, at a table in the corner, there are four people, one of them is an old man with a snow-white beard, it is Captain Smith, sitting on his right hand is the modest Andrew, what attracts Liu Minghao's attention is the long-haired woman on Andrew's left, wearing a well-fitting blue evening dress, even if it is just sitting there, can also see the wonderful posture, when Liu Minghao looked over, she happened to turn sideways slightly, and it was the night snow that had just been separated.

With a decent smile on her face, Ye Xue played a card, smiled at Andrew and said something, her eyes just turned to face Liu Minghao, her eyes couldn't help but widen slightly, showing a hint of surprise.

Liu Minghao also felt a little surprised, winked at Ye Xue, made a gesture, and looked at Captain Smith at the card table.

A smile flashed in Ye Xue's eyes very quickly, and she nodded slightly in impatience, retracted her gaze, and raised her hand to gently comb the hair on her cheeks.

At this time, the game on the table has come to an end, Andrew got two good cards in succession, won the game, Yexue put down the cards, smiled and said a few words, and turned to look at Captain Smith opposite.

"Mr. Captain, I have a reluctant request. I don't know if you can allow it. Yexue said softly.

Captain Smith looked at Yexue with a smile, and before he could speak, the man sitting next to him smiled and said, "If you have anything to say, Miss Anice, you might as well say it directly, Madame's request will always be granted." ”

Ye Xue tilted her head slightly and smiled, raised her hand and pointed at Liu Minghao behind her, "I want to invite that gentleman in, I don't know if it's okay." ”

The eyes of the three of them followed Yexue's arm to look at Liu Minghao who was standing outside the chess and card room, seeing that it was a gentleman in a suit and leather shoes, he naturally would not refuse, the young man nodded slightly at Liu Minghao, and said slightly, "Louis, please let that gentleman in." ”

Louis was slightly stunned, immediately took half a step back, turned sideways slightly at Liu Minghao, and made a standard gesture of please.

Jason's eyes widened in surprise, in his eyes Liu Minghao is a down-and-out sailor who can play cards, because he caught a ride with Rice, he had the opportunity to get on the ship, and he didn't expect him to have a relationship with the upper-class guests on the ship, the young man who greeted him, although Liu Minghao didn't know him, but Jason knew that he was the youngest son of the Grand Duke of Salon, and his status was extremely prominent, even the captain was courteous to him.

Before Jason could speak, Liu Minghao gave him a look, signaling him to be calm, and at the moment of passing by, he lowered his voice and said, "I'll go to you when this is over." Then he entered the chess and card room and walked towards the corner where Yexue and the others were.

Liu Minghao walked to the table, Ye Xue stood up, took his arm, and introduced the three of them with a smile, "This is Hanold Kent." ”

Although the relationship between the two was not explained, as long as they saw their intimate actions, the three of them all showed expressions, Smith and Andrew looked very friendly, but Keton had a slight jealousy in his eyes, his eyes swept over the overlapping arms of the two, raised his eyebrows slightly, and showed a look that seemed to be smiling but not smiling, "Mr. Kent looks very eye-catching, I don't know where it comes from?" ”

Ye Xue didn't wait for Liu Minghao to speak, so she hurriedly pulled him to the card table, half complaining and half annoyed, "You came just in time, my luck is too bad, you can play a few games for me." ”

Liu Minghao smiled slightly, raised his hand and gently patted Ye Xue's hand on his arm, nodded slightly at the three of them, and sat in her place, "As long as a few people don't mind." ”

Neither Smith nor Andrew objected, and Ketton had no reason to refuse, reaching out to collect the cards scattered on the table, expertly cutting them twice, and placing them in the center of the table.

The new game soon began, Keton changed his previous moderation, and played the cards very quickly, almost pressing Liu Minghao step by step, Smith and Andrew on the table did not show anything unusual about this, still maintained the original rhythm, watching the two young people go toe-to-toe.

Keton looked at the cards in his hand, raised his hand and pushed out the two stacks of chips in front of him, and raised his eyebrows slightly to look at Liu Minghao.

Liu Minghao looked very calm, picked up the cards in front of him, glanced at them casually, smiled slightly, raised his hand and piled up the remaining chips in front of him into the card pool, and at the same time spread out the cards in his hand, "Straight flush." ”

The smile on Keton's face suddenly froze, his face flushed slightly, and he showed a hint of embarrassment, threw the cards in his hand on the table, and said unwillingly, "Come again." ”

Liu Minghao shrugged his shoulders indifferently, looking very relaxed, in stark contrast to Keton's faint agitation, Andrew and Smith looked at Liu Minghao with inconspicuous surprise, surprised that he had such good card skills.

After a few rounds in a row, Keton failed miserably one after another, and almost all the chips that were originally piled up in front of him were transferred to Liu Minghao.

At this time, the game has been going on for several hours, on the table, only Liu Minghao's front is full of chips, the other three are only left with the last bet, the last round of cards is finished, the game is at the last moment again, Keton took a deep breath, looked down at the cards in his hand, hesitated, pushed out the only remaining chips in front of him, Andrew shook his head slightly, deducted the cards in his hand to the table, gave up the opportunity to follow up, the captain hesitated slightly, and chose to follow the cards.

Finally, Liu Minghao, everyone's eyes were focused on him, Liu Minghao raised his hand and lifted the cards in front of him slightly, and simply pushed all the chips into the card pool.

Keton subconsciously straightened his back, his eyes stared at the cards in Liu Minghao's hand with a hint of nervousness, and Andrew was also a little curious, waiting for him to show his hole cards.

Liu Minghao smiled slightly, and showed the cards in his hand very simply, Keton's eyes immediately fell on the cards, his face became extremely ugly, and Andrew seemed calmer, but Captain Smith's eyes first widened slightly, and his face showed a hint of surprise, and he looked carefully at the cards in front of several people on the table again, and finally couldn't help but smile happily and spread out the cards in his hand.

Except for Liu Minghao, everyone showed a look of surprise, no one expected that Captain Smith would have a little more points in his hand than Liu Minghao, and unexpectedly became the final big winner.
