Xu Cheng gestured for a professional dealer to come out. The dealer took out three decks of cards and gave it to Yan Jingfan. “You can check the cards first. We don’t want you blaming the cards again later.”
Yan Jingfan carefully checked the cards, even weighing them. After making sure each card was the right weight, he was sure that there were no special marks on the cards that could help Xu Cheng cheat.

But Yan Jingfan, he narrowed his eyes and locked onto the numbers’ sequence and suits, trying his hardest to remember them all, looking as if his brain was in overdrive and even beginning to sweat out of his forehead.(
