Now, only Xiao Qian, Xiaochun, and I remained.
I had long realized that Xiao Qian had deliberately arranged this, so I didn't want to continue playing anymore.
"Um... Xiao Qian, why don't you and Xiaochun draw? I'd rather not play anymore," I said, a bit embarrassed.
Who knew Xiao Qian would insist, "Qin Qin, it won't be fun if you do that. We're all having a great time, it would be a real downer if you quit."
"Besides, it's almost over."
"Yeah, Sister Qin, come on, please," Xiaochun also began begging me as she grabbed my hand.
"Well... okay then."
Helplessly, I could only continue playing with them, all the while praying fervently that it wouldn't be my turn.
I didn't know whether the heavens had heard my prayers or what.
But this time, I was indeed spared, and Sun Xiaoqian got what she wished for when she drew the largest card.
"Oh yeah, finally my turn."
