Chapter 157

The current situation was that Shen Yue was on the side observing (watching the show).

No. 14 was enduring suffering.

The prisoners around them wearing work clothes looked at each other, at a loss of what to do.

The sturdy man clinging to No. 14 tightly hugged No. 14's waist with his brawny arms, making it completely impossible for No. 14 to struggle free.

It seemed that this burly man had gained the upper hand, leaving No. 14 with no way out. But Shen Yue felt that No. 14 was clearly different from usual today.

No. 14 was going easy.

There must be some connection between these two for No. 14 to go easy.

Shen Yue didn't speak up and just watched from the side. During this time she also felt gazes falling on her.

She looked in the direction she felt it from, but found that it was the man hugging No. 14 who was entangling No. 14 while looking at her.

Shen Yue looked back.

Unexpectedly, after the man met Shen Yue's gaze, he shrank into No. 14's arms. And then as a matter of course he was beaten up again by No. 14.

This time No. 14 was ruthless.

And the burly man who pestered him incessantly finally let go painfully.

"L.A., behave yourself," said No. 14, calling the man's name.

Hearing No. 14 call this person's name, Shen Yue made an "oh" sound.

No. 14 immediately looked over, asking Shen Yue worriedly, "What's wrong?"

Shen Yue shook her head and said lightly, "Nothing, it's my first time hearing a name with just letters."

After being shaken off by No. 14, L.A. finally accepted the towel handed to him by the people around him and wiped the blood off his face.

After wiping his face, he stared at Shen Yue and No. 14, who were talking, and got ready to charge over again. But this time when he was halfway there, he was dodged by No. 14. The two started playing chase games.

Shen Yue observed L.A. and found that the movements of his hands were very flexible. But every time when judging which side to block No. 14, his left hand would always make redundant lifting motions.

Every single time it was like this.

Their farce didn't stop until Si Chengyou and Danni La came in.

As soon as Si Chengyou appeared, the playful atmosphere in the hall just now was distinctly different. Not only did L.A. stop his movements, even the prisoners in uniform around them seemed to face a formidable foe.

L.A. was almost able to grab No. 14 again, but he chose to give up and walked straight towards Si Chengyou instead, also smiling, "Big brother, why do you have time to come see me. I'm just in charge of one floor now and can't help much."

As soon as Shen Yue heard this, her little ears pricked up. She would just listen without commenting.

Si Chengyou smiled lightly, the smile not reaching his eyes, "I didn't come to ask you for help today, just brought some people to learn."

L.A.'s original smile froze. He repeated incredulously, "Learn?"

Their Building 8 was a casino, the filthiest place in the prison. You wouldn't get out without shedding a layer of skin. What was there to learn? Learn how to suffer?

Si Chengyou nodded, pointing to Shen Yue, "This is Shen Yue. Although she's still in the newcomer building, don't hold back."

L.A. looked at Shen Yue, then at No. 14 who was already standing quietly behind Shen Yue, and finally at Danni La. He suddenly laughed.

So this was the young miss who came out of Building 1.

She was really stupid.

"Hahahahaha, fine. It's been a long time since I came across something so interesting. I'll bet with you."

After laughing, L.A. asked Shen Yue, "Did you bring enough money? What do you want to bet on?"

Shen Yue immediately turned to ask No. 14, "Do we have enough money?"

Hearing Shen Yue say "we", No. 14's timid little heart suddenly felt much better for some reason.

He lowered his head to meet Shen Yue's gaze and respectfully yet gently replied, "We brought enough. Anything is fine."

Only after getting a definite answer did Shen Yue reply to L.A., "We brought enough money. What should we bet on?"

Seeing No. 14's overly respectful attitude, and hearing Shen Yue's words, L.A. couldn't help but lightly clicked his tongue. "You're new, aren't you?"

Shen Yue nodded and asked again, "What games will we play?"

L.A. was in no hurry to answer. He took the cigarette handed to him by someone next to him. After taking a deep puff, striking a pose, and exhaling a smoke ring, he was just about to intimidate this newcomer Shen Yue. But then he heard Si Chengyou leisurely say, "Please put out the cigarette." Before L.A. could react, his body had already reflexively put out the cigarette.

After realizing what he had done, L.A. made excuses to the lackey next to him, "Why hand me cigarettes! Why hand them when Si brother is here!"

The blamed underling felt very wronged but didn't say anything.

Seeing this, Si Chengyou smiled and nodded slightly, "Sorry, got too used to Building 6. Can't stand the smell of smoke." L.A. apologized with an awkward laugh, "No no."

However, after this interruption, the momentum he had worked up was gone. He could only look gloomily at Shen Yue again and suggest, "Do you play Texas Hold'em?"

Shen Yue shook her head. "Don't know how. Anything else?"

L.A. frowned, but after looking at Si Chengyou and No. 14, he held down his anger and asked, "Do you know 21?"

Shen Yue shook her head again. "Don't know how."

"At least roulette to bet on even-odd you should know."

Shen Yue kept shaking her head.

L.A.'s frown furrowed deeply. The already scarce patience in his heart was completely depleted. He was just about to blow up regardless when he heard Shen Yue ask him, "You look quite formidable. For games requiring skills I definitely can't beat you. Are there any games relying solely on luck to determine the winner?"

The one sentence "you look quite formidable" successfully smoothed out half of L.A.'s ruffled feathers.

Tsk, the kid had a sweet tongue, knowing to flatter that he was formidable. Then this time he'd pretend he didn't lose his temper, and lose it next time.

At the same time, he also felt that Shen Yue's question was extremely na?ve. At the gaming table, where was there luck? It was all about the human factor and scheming.

Only sheep primed for slaughter could ask such a question.

"There is. Let's play a card draw game, catch the turtle."

Shen Yue tilted her head. "How do you play catch the turtle? Is it simple?"

"Tsk, how could you have not even played catch the turtle? Come, I'll teach you. You better have brought enough money for me!"

Hearing L.A. talk disrespectfully to Shen Yue, No. 14 immediately and without hesitation viciously kicked L.A.

L.A. immediately screamed, "Ah! No. 14 kicked me. I won't even wash these clothes anymore!"

No. 14: ......

Shen Yue's look indicated: Why did you reward him?

While screaming chaotically, L.A. failed to notice that from the first sentence Shen Yue said to him, the initiative had already shifted to Shen Yue's hands. In fact, he had been following Shen Yue's pace all this time.

Si Chengyou followed behind them, very leisurely, as if he was just taking a stroll in his own backyard.
