Jeanne returned to the private room.
She stopped in her tracks.
The man sitting in her seat... was Fourth Master Swan.
He was playing mahjong with the others with her tiles at the moment.
Jeanne wondered if she should leave directly.
At that moment, she heard Monica's voice, "Jeannie, I thought you had fallen into the toilet bowl. Fourth Master Swan happened to be here to help you change your luck. Your luck was too bad... Ah, score!"
Monica suddenly shouted excitedly.
"Pure Suit!" Monica waved her tiles. "Fourth Master Swan, it seems that your luck isn't much better."
Edward took a look.
He lowered his head to take Jeanne's bargaining chips. There were only a few left.
Jeanne walked over. "I'll do it myself."
Fourth Master Swan took a look at Jeanne and stood up from his seat.
At this moment, Eden also stood up very politely. "Fourth Uncle, come and take my spot."
"That's not necessary. Nox." Fourth Master Swan called out to Nox, who was clearly in high spirits beside him.
Nox stood up speechlessly and made way for him.
Just like that, Edward sat on Nox's seat calmly.
Another round began.
Nox stared at Edward's tiles and smiled very brightly.
It looked like he was going to get a Pure Suit and defeat the three other players’
Who said that Fourth Master Swan's luck was bad?
Nox was very interested in watching the game.
"Four bamboo." Jeanne discarded her tile.
Fourth Master Swan was the next player after Jeanne.
Just as Nox was about to call for a score, he saw Fourth Master Swan drawing a tile.
Nox held it back.
It was still early. Edward could draw the winning tile himself.
After a few rounds.
Eden drew a tile himself and discarded one. Monica had also taken the tile Fourth Master Swan discarded. When Jeanne discarded another four bamboo, Fourth Master Swan reached out to draw a tile again.
Nox could not help but ask, "Fourth Master Swan, did you see your tiles wrongly?"
"A true gentleman doesn't speak when spectating a mahjong game," Edward said in a low voice.
Nox tried his best to hold back.
"Four bamboo." Jeanne discarded again.
"The last two tiles..." Nox mumbled.
Edward continued to draw a tile.
At the moment when Nox broke down, he almost jumped up in excitement when he saw that Edward had drawn a four bamboo himself. Who knew, Edward kept it and discarded an eight bamboo.
"Score." Jeanne flipped her tiled and said with a smile, "Golden Hook with two kongs and full tiles."
Fourth Master Swan laid his tiles down and calmly took out some chips for Jeanne.
Nox's eyes were wide open.
The next round.
The round after that.
Many rounds after that.
Nox finally understood. Fourth Master Swan was not here to play cards. He was here to go after the woman.
Monica also could not help but tease, "Once Fourth Master came, Jeannie's luck became good."
Jeanne did win back quite a lot.
In the beginning, Nox won, but he seemed to have almost lost everything at this moment.
"Score." Jeanne happily took the tile discarded by Fourth Master Swan.
Nox turned to look at Jeanne's hand.
He had a ghastly look on his face.
It was another Pure Suit.
Monica could tell from Nox's expression that Jeanne's hand was not small. She said, "Fourth Master, you're Jeannie's lucky charm."
