The younger generation occupied one table, while the other two were left to the elders for their leisure.
Despite his stiff and formal demeanor, Cheng Huai proved to be a seasoned mahjong player.

Gu Qinnian teased with a hearty laugh, "The one who wins the money treats us to a meal. Brother Cheng, you can't shirk this!"
To everyone's surprise, Cheng Huai nodded earnestly. "I'm currently on annual leave and have plenty of time. Let's discuss a specific date—I'll take care of the arrangements."
His response instantly prompted Gu Qinnian to glance meaningfully at Qi Chao, a smirk playing on his lips. "Brother-in-law, what do you think? When would be a good time?"
