Chapter 287

She was so shaken that even when she crouched down, her spine trembled softly.

Luo Yibei's line of sight passed slightly across her, but his face still remained passive.

Fang Chixia picked up the debris from the floor and raised her head meeting his eyes head on.

His calm gaze as if pondering over Mo Luo’s proposal tautened her nerves even more that even her hands couldn’t help but shiver.

Her eyes seemed tense as she looked back at him without blinking, waiting patiently for his answer.

She had this tiny expectation in her heart that Luo Yibei would refuse him. This kind of gameplay might be very common in the upper class, but she couldn’t stomach it.

She was a living person, not a dead pawn. Why should he bet her on the table and wager on her?

At the thought of this, Fang Chixia’s heart was chilled.

Even so, Luo Yibei just looked at her faintly then averted his gaze.

“I have no opinions.” His attention returned to the gaming table indifferently, giving off the impression that everything around him could not lift a bit of his interest.

Fang Chixia looked at him incredulously, her pupils shrinking suddenly, and her fingers tightening in devastation.

She still had the broken piece of glass that has just been broken in her hand. The moment her five fingers tightened, tiny scraps plunged directly into her delicate skin and fresh blood immediately oozed out.

Oblivious to the pain, her slender and seemingly weak hands clenched hard, until her knuckles turned white.

There was something in her heart that snapped, from the highest top and falling into pieces….

Fei Si Nuo has been watching her in silence, his elbows propped on the back of his chair, maintaining a lazy appearance, but the look in his eyes darkened unusually deep.

He stared at her for a while before turning to Mo Luo and spoke out, “This wager, how about I play alone with Luo?”

Mo Luo apparently hasn’t foreseen this turn of events so he was caught off guard for a moment.

His previous proposal was originally to grab Fang Chixia. But now that Fei Si Nuo has suddenly asked for it, it was totally out of his calculations.

Fei Si Nuo was a Chris family, the most powerful family in R and Mo Luo can’t not give him face.

In spite of his reluctance, he eventually sold the favor to him.

“All right, you and Luo Shao play alone. Have fun while I go and have a turn around.” With his partners in his arms, Mo Luo got up and went out of the cabin.

On the gaming table, only two players were left.

Fei Si Nuo’s periphery of vision landed on Fang Chixia once more before motioning for the dealer to start.

Fang Chixia froze in place a few meters away from the two, from beginning to end watching the turn of events as if being poured with a bucket of ice, cold and chilled.

Fei Si Nuo’s partner was also a very beautiful woman. She has the making of a noble lady.

However, unlike Fang Chixia, being planted in such a kind of exchange didn’t seem to bother her at all.

After the game started, her eyes even wandered to Luo Yibei from time to time, as if looking forward to following him thereafter.

Fang Chixia stood rigidly with her nerves strung tight. The cards that were distributed one by one pushed her heart deeper and deeper into a valley.

She had no right to interfere in Luo Yibei’s work, but why should she be tied into such wager?




Chapter 288

Anger welled up in Fang Chixia’s chest.

Her dignity has been trampled on. Why did Luo Yibei have to play with her freedom?

Why did he never consider herself again?

Was she really like an adopted kitten or puppy, teasing her when he was happy then giving her to others when he was not?

The game continued on the gaming table.

Luo Yibei’s indifference has always been in place from the start, considering everything around him as if irrelevant.

Fang Chixia clenched her five fingers once more as she took another glance at his face.

When the two were about to show their final cards, she walked over and stopped the, “Wait a minute!”

“What’s the matter?” Fei Si Nuo slowly lifted his face, gentleness was overflowing in his tone. HIs eyes blinked open spreading warmth and dispelling the deviltry in his bones.

Fang Chixia moved closer to the two, but never glanced at Luo Yibei. She tamped down the anger in her chest and concealed her hurt, revealing only a calm, cold countenance.

She placed a hand to still Fei Si Nuo’s hand which was about to flip his card for the showdown, and then looked at him. She said, “Since this wager decides whom I should follow, Mr. Fei Si Nuo, would you mind if I say a few words?”

“As you wish, Miss Fang.” Fei Si Nuo shrugged impassively.

Luo Yibei shot her a brooding look.

He has no idea what Fang Chixia’s purpose was for her sudden interference!

Fang Chixia caught his reaction from the corner of her, but still hardened her jaw and lightly lifted her chin. “Since tonight’s bet involves me, then my opinion should of at most importance, don’t you think?”

“Of course.” Fei Si Nuo echoed and nodded.

“Come here!” Luo Yibei commanded.
