Thinking of this, Yue Xin glanced at a certain someone at the gambling table. “You’re from Building No. 3, right? You’ve been so busy recently. Do you still have time to play cards?”
The gambler from Building No. 3 smiled and said, “Don’t tell anyone. I’ll give each of you a piece of information for free later.”
Yue Xin observed everyone’s expressions and felt that gambling was really a dangerous thing. It could easily desensitize people and make them lose the ability to sense danger.
At 10 p.m., Yue Xin and Denise were escorted back to the Newcomer Building by
No.12. Without Yi Chengxuan’s car, it was very time-consuming for them to walk around every day. However, thanks to these two journeys, Yue Xin and Denise’s relationship was not as awkwvard as before. They could still chat occasionally.
“E.P. doesn’t teach you much these days. He just let you study at various gambling tables. ”
Yue Xin nodded. “Yes, he said that he has taught me all the techniques. Next, I have to observe what the others say and determine which ones are lies.”
Denise had been by Yue Xin’s side for the past few days and had witnessed Yue
Xin’s progress with her own eyes. She also knew how hard she worked and how tired she was. This was completely different from what she had thought at first, whic was that Yue Xin was a young lady who relied on No.12 to do whatever she wanted.
On the way to the prison with Yue Xin, they occasionally encountered prison guards who urged them to hurry back to their cells. However, these prison guards would quickly escape when they saw No.12. Thanks to No.12, Yue Xin’s path was always very quiet.
As they walked, Denise couldn’t help but ask, “Can I ask why you have to understand the human heart?”
Yue Xin replied without hesitation, “To become the person in charge.”
Denise was surprised. She thought that Yue Xin’s goal was at most to be a small higher-up, but it turned out that she wanted to directly reach the top.
“Indeed, if you want to be in power, you have to understand people’s hearts.
You… are really amazing. Very impressive.”
Yue Xin shook her head and corrected Denise. “No, I’m very stupid. Other than remembering things, I don’t know anything else. Even learning people’s hearts was told to me by Yi Chengxuan.”
When Denise heard Yue Xin mention Yi Chengxuan, her words seemed to imply that she was under Yi Chengxuan’s control. She immediately empathized.
She took the initiative to say, “Yi Chengxuan is a very dangerous person. If everything you learn is under his control, then in the end, you will be like me. You will have no choice but to walk the only path he prepared for you.”
Yue Xin’s eyes moved slightly, and her beautiful eyes reflected the moonlight simulated by the prison. “Then what do you think I should do?”
Yue Xin’s voice was very soft, as if she was really troubled. Ever since she met Yue Xin, Denise had seen Yue Xin’s domineering appearance with No.12. She had never seen Yue Xin’s weak side.
At this moment, Yue Xin was showing weakness in front of her as if she wanted to rely on her. Although Denise knew that Yue Xin often praised her, she had never truly realized how important she was to Yue Xin like now.
She felt her blood surge and blurted out, “I know some techniques to interact with the opposite sex. I’ll teach you. Although these things will only make me an exquisite plaything, you’re different from me.”
Denise stopped and looked at Yue Xin. In the moonlight, her eyes seemed to be filled with the Milky Way. “Can I be a part of your power? I hope you still need me.”
Yue Xin smiled innocently. “Then I’ll leave it to you. Denise, I’m really not good at matters between men and women. I remember that when I was young, a little boy saved me…”
Yue Xin didn’t give Denise a chance to react. Instead, she started talking about Lu Yu. Those bloody wounds had long scabbed over, but in order to achieve her goal, Yue Xin didn’t mind personally tearing open the scabs and revealing the wounds as chips. E.P. said that chips could also be bait to lure the game.
“Lu Yu often said that I was stupid and couldn’t do anything right. After that, I got used to apologizing…”
Denise was very angry after hearing Yue Xin’s experience. She had been deceived by men in the past. Yue Xin’s situation was not similar to her experience. It was exactly the same!
“Yue Xin, don’t believe what that man said. He’s controlling you mentally!
You’re really very powerful. I’ve never seen a woman more powerful than you!”
Yue Xin widened her eyes in surprise. “Really? Thank you, Denise.”
The road that night seemed to be tinged with temperature. It was different from the coldness of the past, but only Yue Xin braked. How much she had laid the groundwork and performed in detail before Denise volunteered to jump into her cage. She had learned a lot these days. If she had simply suggested to Denise that she wanted to learn her abilities, Denise would feel that she had the initiative and what she taught could not be trusted..
