Liu Qifeng's classmates finally came. Because it was a personal friendship, Liu Qifeng didn't let the officials of the municipal party committee and government receive him. He just brought the organization ministers Hou Weijun and Li Xiaoning as companions.

We are very happy to meet each other.Liu Qifeng and Hou Weijun were happy because they could treat the three leaders from Beijing as the landlords, so that they could improve their official careers in the future, because the three students of Liu Qifeng were department-level cadres. The old squad leader is even the deputy minister.

The old squad leader and the others are also very happy, because although they are all in important positions, they are located in the capital. What kind of place is that?At the foot of the imperial city, the ministers are walking everywhere, and the director is not as good as a dog.It's different now, we are classmates with Liu Qifeng, although we are still in the same officialdom, it's much more relaxed after all, at least we don't need to wear a mask on our faces.

The meeting place was chosen by Hou Weijun, the "Blue Sea and Blue Sky" leisure club. This place has everything you need to eat, drink, and have fun. The most important thing is that it is only open to members, and it is absolutely safe.Hou Weijun is naturally a member of this place, and he is also a high-V type.

When the boss heard that Liu Qifeng, the top leader of the municipal party committee, was coming, he immediately arranged them in the presidential private room without even thinking about it. This presidential private room is said to cost [-] yuan per night. And there is no discount, of course, there is no discount tonight, but a free order.

Li Xiaoning didn't go up at first, he had to explain some things to the owner of the clubhouse, and he was also responsible for checking the dishes, such trivial matters naturally couldn't be left to the leader.

It was around dinner time that Li Xiaoning came to the presidential private room, and was shocked by the luxury as soon as he entered the room. The room was more than 300 square meters, covered with thick and soft Turkish carpets.On the right hand side of the entrance is a small bar, on the left hand side is a row of long leather sofas, in the middle is a large jacuzzi, and on the opposite wall is a large plasma screen, which is linked to the auditorium and broadcasts live performances there.

On the side next to the window, there are two single rooms. The one on the left is a chess and card room with a card table and six leather high-back chairs.The one on the right is like a small reception room, with a leather double sofa, high-end coffee table and tea set.

As soon as Li Xiaoning entered the door, he heard the sound of chips. Liu Qifeng was smiling and said, "Hi sister-in-law, I am Xiao Liu. Why didn't you come to play with the old squad leader? Ah? Oh, you are not in good health, then I’ll go to the capital to see you another day. Yes, I’m playing cards with the old squad leader, he’s just a hobby, don’t worry, I’ll watch him for you.” Then there was another exaggerated sound of chips .

It turned out that the wife of the old squad leader had called from the capital to check the post, and Liu Qifeng was covering up for the old squad leader.Seeing this, Li Xiaoning stopped in her tracks.

The old squad leader took the phone from Liu Qifeng, pressed Liu Qifeng's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Continue!"

It turned out that they were indeed playing poker. Li Xiaoning had heard of such a high-level poker game before, but had never really experienced it.The most famous game of this kind is the bridge game played by the second generation supreme leader of Huaxia Kingdom.

Don't think that they are playing poker just because they are classmates. Everyone is in a high position and has a lot of work to do. How can they have so much free time to play poker?If you can enter such a game, it means that you have entered the core team. Of course, the people who enter this game are not short of money.

To be honest, Li Xiaoning really hopes to have the opportunity to participate in this poker game. He believes that with his own skills, he can easily defeat everyone present. Of course, his goal is not to win money, but to win money. Make them owe their favors.However, he is also very clear that this game is not something you can enter if you want to.

Li Xiaoning knocked on the door lightly, Liu Qifeng looked up and said casually, "Xiao Li is here, is dinner ready?"

"Yes! Secretary Liu!" Li Xiaoning said pretending to be nonchalant, but in fact he was nervous. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. I want to participate in this game, but I can't show any deliberation.

"Tell them not to start, we have to wait for a while to finish!" Liu Qifeng continued to speak casually, not knowing whether he already regarded Li Xiaoning as one of his own, or did not regard him as the object of scruples at all.

"Young man, did he pay you for overtime work?" The old squad leader sitting opposite Liu Qifeng joked with a smile.

Li Xiaoning smiled slightly and said, "Knowledge is the greatest wealth, and you can learn a lot by following Secretary Liu!"

"Young man! Are you insincere? This is the weekend, you are so young, there should be more things you are willing to do! Is the little brother uncomfortable?" The old squad leader joked recklessly.

"Hahaha...!" Everyone at the card table laughed.

Li Xiaoning also smiled silently.

"Old squad leader, don't laugh at this kid, he's still young, he looks like a virgin!" Said Director Zhao, who was sitting next to the old squad leader with slightly bald hair.

"Stop talking so much, it's time for you to bet, old squad leader!" Another director Tang said.

"I'll follow!" The old squad leader dropped a few chips without hesitation.

Li Xiaoning looked at the cards on the table and found that they were playing "Stud", which is often played in Hong Kong and Taiwan gambling movies, which is very similar to Texas Hold'em, which he is best at.After a short glance, he had already seen the trend of the game. It was unimaginable that such a group of powerful people, all of whom were smart, played cards like shit.

Originally, Li Xiaoning should have left after being teased, but he knew that he must not miss this good opportunity. Standing behind Liu Qifeng, he could see the cards in his hand. After realizing that he was going to fold, he suddenly stepped forward One step later, he grabbed a few chips and threw them on the table, saying, "Secretary Liu raises!"

Everyone stopped and looked at Li Xiaoning, the relaxed expression on their faces disappeared, replaced by a different and complicated expression.

Liu Qifeng didn't expect that Li Xiaoning would do this either. He looked back at Li Xiaoning and found that he wasn't panicked. He wanted to reprimand him, but instead he said in a low voice: "This card, why don't you just give up?"

Li Xiaoning shook his head slightly and said, "Secretary Liu, you will definitely win!"

"Okay! I'll follow!" Hou Weijun threw the chips into the pool.

Li Xiaoning actually didn't know whether his actions would ruin his career that he had just started, but he couldn't restrain himself, maybe he wasn't good at gambling, but he still had a gambling instinct in his heart.

"I follow!" "I also follow." The other three also chose to follow.

After another round of cards was dealt, it was Liu Qifeng's turn to call.

"What's the biggest bet?" Li Xiaoning asked easily.

"There is no upper limit!" Director Tang said, lighting a cigarette, with a hint of contempt in his tone.

"Really?" Li Xiaoning smiled slightly, and pushed all the chips in front of Liu Qifeng into the pool with a clatter, "All in!"

"Boy! Do you know how to play? There is still a round of cards yet to be dealt, why the hell are you betting with us?" Director Tang was offended by Li Xiaoning's actions.

"Qifeng, aren't you talking? Are you crazy? This kid is betting on your money!" Director Tang said to Liu Qifeng again.

"Secretary Liu is not crazy, and neither am I. Because we know the cards in our hands, and we also know the cards in your hands!" Li Xiaoning said calmly.

"Hahaha...!" Everyone laughed again, but this time Liu Qifeng didn't laugh.

"Young man, don't brag, you don't have clairvoyance, how could you know the cards in our hand?" The old squad leader also felt that Li Xiaoning was a little crazy.

Li Xiaoning smiled slightly, cleared his throat and said: "Mr. Zhou, you are waiting for the third 3, but you forgot that when the cards were dealt just now, you have already covered one, and now you are pretending that you got it, but in fact you didn't." .”

Hearing what Li Xiaoning said, the old squad leader didn't know if it was acceptable, but he scratched his chin unconsciously.

"Director Zhao got two pair, but he himself knew it wasn't good enough!" Li Xiaoning continued, "Director Tang wanted to make a diamond flush, but he didn't succeed!"

Speaking of this, Li Xiaoning turned his attention to Hou Weijun again, and said with a smile: "It's unrealistic for Minister Hou to rely on his pair of Qs to win money!"

When Li Xiaoning said this, everyone had already started to show each other the cards in their hands, and there were incomprehensible smiles on their faces. Obviously, Li Xiaoning had said exactly what the cards in their hands were.

"So, let's go all in!" The smile on Li Xiaoning's face was so bright.

"This kid is really good!" Director Zhao threw away the cards in his hand.

"What the hell!" Director Tang also threw away the cards in his hand.

"Young man, what's your name?" The old squad leader's eyes flashed.

"His name is Li Xiaoning, a top student at Yenching University, and he just came here this year." Liu Qifeng answered for Li Xiaoning, with a hint of joy in his tone.

"Secretary Liu, what do you have?" Hou Weijun asked.

"Nothing." Liu Qifeng said with a smile while spreading his hands.

"Damn it!" Director Tang cursed.

"No way?" Director Zhao also had a look of disbelief.

Li Xiaoning said with a smile: "It's enough to win!"

"Li Xiaoning! What you have to do now is to quickly move a stool and sit next to me." The old squad leader said with a smile.

"I really want to play, but I still have something to do, I have to go down first!" Li Xiaoning said with a bow.He knew that at this time, he had to leave as soon as he was ready and leave in time, so he couldn't stay here.

Sure enough, when Li Xiaoning walked outside the door, he heard the old monitor say with a smile: "Qifeng, this young man is not bad, I like it!"

"Yes! Very smart!" Director Zhao also echoed.

"Yes, very smart!" Liu Qifeng repeated meaningfully.
