"Who brought him into the game?" Lu Fan asked. His tone was light, but every word was clear and sharp.
Liu Wei stood up and smiled. "And you are?"
"His brother-in-law." Lu Fan looked at him, his tone flat. "I heard my brother-in-law lost some money, so I came to take a look."
Liu Wei's smile faltered. "It's just friends messing around. A little friendly betting to spice things up, you know."
"Thirty thousand yuan is a 'little betting'?" Lu Fan smiled. It wasn't a cold smile, but it still sent chills down their spines.
Liu Wei opened his mouth but couldn't find the words.
Lu Fan sat down in a chair. He picked up the deck of cards on the table, flipped over two, and put them back down. Looking up at Liu Wei, his tone was as casual as if they were chatting about the weather. "Which of you three came up with this?"
Liu Wei stayed silent.
