A few men were chatting when suddenly Lina suggested playing a game together. She felt that since everyone was gathered, it would be a waste to just chat and not do anything fun.

“I have to leave early because I have the morning shift tomorrow and need to go to work. You guys can keep playing,” said Amber.

“Are we leaving now?” Lina said with some regret.

Grace said, “We should get together more often in the future. It’s not like this is the only time we’ll meet.” Then, she turned to Amber and said, “I’ll have my driver take you home.”

“No need, I’ll just take a taxi back,” said Amber.

“Let the driver take you back, I’ll feel more at ease,” said Grace. As she spoke, she picked up her phone and dialed the driver’s number. After a moment, she turned to Amber and said, “The driver is outside, you’ll see him as soon as you leave the club.”

“Okay, thanks,” said Amber before leaving.

After Amber left, the remaining few gathered together. Lina looked at the number of people and suggested, “Why don’t we play cards?”

Regarding this, everyone didn’t have any objections, “So, two tables then?” It’s just right for eight people, with four people per table.

“That’s so boring.” Lina giggled and said, “Let’s just have one table.”

“One table?” Grace pondered, while Hadwin immediately sensed trouble upon seeing his wife’s smile.

As expected, her next words shattered his beliefs.

“Let us women be in charge of playing cards, and as for the men, they can be the bet. The losing side will be responsible for taking off a piece of clothing, um… just the top half will do.” Lina added the second half of the sentence sheepishly, under the gaze of her husband.

A few men glanced at each other, while among the women, Lina naturally grabbed her best friend

Grace and said, “Grace, you don’t mind, do you?”

Grace smiled and glanced at her husband’s ambiguous expression before stating, “I have no objections.”

It’s kind of funny to think about this kind of bet, and she’s starting to become a little interested.

“That’s something Kyla and Valda will surely agree with, right? Just think, if it’s just about money and drinking as the stakes, it wouldn’t be exciting at all. We need that drive to win.” Lina said.

“What about the bet?”

“This bet is different. Everyone will definitely try their best to keep their own husband’s clothes,” Lina said confidently.

“Okay, you’ve convinced me with your twisted reasoning,” said Kyla.

Valda glanced at Brian’s clothes today, compared them to the clothes of the other men, and blushed as she said to

Brian, “Brian, they all agreed, and I feel bad not agreeing too. Besides, you’re not dressed too lightly today.”

In other words, Valda also agreed.

Four men looked at each other, at a loss for words. Since their wives had all agreed, they had no choice but to comply obediently.

Among the four men, Hadwin is the most helpless and pitiful one who is accompanying someone he shouldn’t be with. It’s because his own wife came up with this bad idea, so he can only apologize to the other guys.

Jason is the most relaxed of the group, with a slight smile on his lips that makes Hadwin seriously doubt that even if the bet was to take off his pants, Jason wouldn’t care. As long as Grace agrees, he will agree.

Martin looked serious and glanced down at his clothes. He began to care about who Kyla would team up with for a while, after all, this was a game of “Double-Dutch” and having a good teammate was important!

Regarding Brian, he furrowed his brow and leaned in to Valda, asking, “How good are you at playing cards?” He hadn’t really seen her play much when they were together.

”

“Nothing special,” Valda said awkwardly. “But I haven’t really played much in the past two years, so I don’t know if I’ve gotten worse.”

Upon hearing this, Brian’s forehead immediately formed a black line.

What level of proficiency would it be with an average technical level, plus a decline?

“If… um, if you really had to take off your shirt today, don’t mind me,” Valda stuttered, “I’ll make sure to practice my card playing skills and try not to do that next time.”

“Next time?” Brian raised an eyebrow. Did his wife still expect to have such a bet again in the future?

After chatting for a while, the four women began to choose their partners by directly showing their palms and backs of their hands to see who would be paired with whom.

The final outcome is that Lina and Grace are a team, and Kyla and Valda are another team.

Four women sat around a square table, while four men gathered on the other side.

“How good is your wife’s card playing?” Brian asked Martin.

“About the level of a middle school student,” said Martin.

Kyla usually loses to Nelson, this middle school student, when playing cards at home, so Martin’s comment is understandable.

…” Upon hearing this, Brian was momentarily at a loss for words and could only silently mourn to himself.

Anyway, as long as Valda is happy, it doesn’t matter. It’s just taking off a piece of clothing for his wife.

Looking at Jason and Hadwin, they have known each other for many years because of their wives and often meet each other.

They have played cards together before and both know each other’s wives’ card skills, so there’s no need to ask about that.

Just because he understood the situation, Hadwin was feeling particularly embarrassed at the moment.

“If it really comes down to us having to take off our clothes later, please forgive us.”

“Lina’s card skills, Grace probably can’t handle unless the opponent has worse card skills,” said Jason bluntly.

Hadwin chuckled dryly.

My own wife is really… not only is she bad at playing cards, but she also came up with this terrible idea and ended up tricking her own husband and her teammate’s husband.

Regarding this, Hadwin is speechless and unable to comment.

The game began, and because it involved the issue of the four men’s clothing, all four men became interested in the game.

Overall, Grace is the most skilled player and can also count cards. However, unfortunately, she was dragged down by her teammate Lina, who played like a pig, and suffered a miserable defeat.

Some games that were originally winnable ended up being lost.

Kyla and Valda’s card skills are not very impressive, but luckily they are evenly matched and cooperate well with each other, so they can still hold their own in the game.

Four people, back and forth, you win one round, then I win one round.

The four men on the side looked pitiful as their clothes became increasingly scanty.

Four men looked at each other, their clothes were all worn out and barely covering their bodies.

If another woman were to come in and see this, she might not be able to resist screaming out loud.

At this moment, the game is being played exceptionally fiercely, and four men are paying particularly close attention.

After all, in this game, the husbands of the losing team may end up playing shirtless.

The men were staring intently at the card game, as if it was more important than a multi-billion dollar business deal.

On the contrary, women are playing cards while chatting casually, appearing extremely relaxed.

Even Lina was chatting about entertainment gossip, “By the way, have you noticed the newly rising popular actor Kering recently? He has good acting skills, good looks, and seems to have a cute personality. Next time he’s filming at the film and television city, I plan to go and see him. Do you want to come with me? We can form a group!”

“Kering? He’s only 22 years old, but the drama he’s currently in is pretty good,” Grace said.

“Which one? I’ll go check it out,” Kyla said.

“Time’s Gift, he’s so handsome in it!” Lina praised.

Hadwin heard this and rolled his eyes, but Lina didn’t even notice.

Valda, on the other hand, became interested. “Let’s go to the film and television city together next time and watch the live filming. It’s quite interesting.”

“Wow, it would be great if you could come. We might even get a chance to get up close with the crew!”

Lina said. After all,

Valda is the prince of the entertainment industry, and all the major crews are eager to work with him!

Lina was still excited when suddenly she screamed, “Ah!

Something’s wrong with my cards…”

As they say, too much joy brings sorrow.

As expected, this mistake was irreversible.

Even if Grace struggled to the end, it wouldn’t make a difference.

When the game ended, Kyla and Valda breathed a sigh of relief, finally holding onto the last bit of clothing on their respective husbands.

Grace and Lina looked a bit embarrassed as they glanced at their own husbands.

Grace blinked and said to Jason, “I lost.”

“Yeah, I saw,” Jason replied.

“Um…I’m willing to accept the punishment,” Grace said.

“Of course,” Jason said, raising his hand and slowly unbuttoning his shirt. “Since you lost, I’m your bet, so I have to accept the punishment.”

No way! Is he really going to take it off?!

Valda widened her eyes in surprise. After all, this was Jason’s last piece of clothing. If he really took it off, then…

Valda didn’t even have time to react before Brian covered her eyes with his hand. In the next moment, Brian grabbed his own clothes and lifted Valda up like a child.

“Let’s go for now, we’ll meet again next time.”

After finishing speaking, he quickly hugged Valda and left the private room. It seemed like if they stayed any longer, his wife. would be as angry as a hornet.

Kyla and Martin exchanged a smile. “Well then, if that’s the case, we’ll be on our way,” said Martin. He put on the clothes. he had just taken off and left the private room with Kyla.

Now, in the private room, only the losing team remained, looking at each other in confusion.

Hadwin pulled his wife close to him and said, “Alright, since everyone has left, let’s go back home.”
