Against Aces, I Can't Beat That!

Nothing happened that night.

The next day was also the last day of the autumn outing.

According to the itinerary, the group had originally planned to stroll around Zhongshan Scenic Area, visit a Buddhist pagoda, and tour the scripture repository and such.

However, several local Jinling teachers had no interest in it, and Lu Zhou had visited twice before, so naturally he was not interested either. Only a few newly hired faculty members and teaching assistants who had just started their jobs got up early, packed their things, and set off full of energy.

As for the senior professors who did not plan to go, they set up several card tables in the hotel's recreation room.

Incidentally, the female counselor who had chatted nonstop with Lu Zhou during the trip yesterday knocked on his door early in the morning and invited him to tour the pagoda with her. Lu Zhou had no interest at all, so she could only go with her best friend in disappointment.

After having breakfast at the buffet restaurant, Lu Zhou leisurely wandered over to the recreation room. Seeing that Dean Qin and Senior Brother Luo were there as well, he pulled the two of them into a card game.

"Pair of aces."

"No, no, I can't beat that!" Luo Wenxuan said with a laugh, waving his hand. Since he was on Dean Qin's team, he naturally could not play.

Dean Qin chuckled as he held a pair of cards, exchanged a glance with his teammate Luo Wenxuan, then looked at Lu Zhou, the landlord.

"Then I'm going out—"

"Bomb."

Four fours landed on the table. Senior Brother Luo, who had already settled in to wait for victory, was so startled that he nearly slid off the sofa.

"Holy shit! You were holding back."
