Leng Yiyao tilted her head and glanced at the bright crystal lamp above her head. The room was so quiet that everyone’s breathing seemed to be clearly discernible.

Xiller looked at her with scorching eyes, seeming to leave the rest of the room behind.

The smile on white-robed man’s face had disappeared. He looked straight at Leng Yiyao, who had a calm expression, and Zhai Mu, who was closer to her, and couldn’t help but frown. However, in the blink of an eye, he cleared up his emotions and bowed slightly with a smile, “Everyone, it’s still early, why don’t you try your luck downstairs. All facilities are available in the VIP room, please make yourselves at home.”

No matter why the famous gambling king was staring at a woman with such intensity, the other’s words had been too obvious. It would be impolite to overstay any further. The casino staff politely bent over to open the door, guiding them forward to lead them away. Zhai Mu paused his footsteps. Then, as if he hadn’t noticed Leng Yiyao, he also left the room with others.

In an instant, there were only two of them left in the room.

As a result, the spacious room appeared larger and more empty.

“Who was that man just now?” A low and intoxicating voice suddenly rang throughout the room. Xiller walked directly and stood before her.

His gaze was straight and cold, but when it fell on the veil on her face, he paused slightly, and then couldn’t help but directly pick the obnoxious existence away. 

The black veil was thin and flimsy, and instantly fell to the ground with the flick of his wrist.

Leng Yiyao blinked, and in the next instant, the two eyes met directly in mid-air.

She suddenly smiled slightly.

“I don’t know .” The indifference in her tone was bone-chilling. Her gaze was clear, without any signs of concealment.

Xiller’s fingertips came together in an instant, and his fists clenched behind his back. He simply stared at her deeply, in an attempt to peer into the depths of her heart through her eyes.

She didn’t dodge his gaze, but let him stare, and even changed her posture, leaning into the sofa indolently. “I remember, you never visit the casino. Why the sudden interest?”

“You never answered unreasonable questions before.” Xiller’s eyes swept across her lazy and carefree face, and his expression slowly became cold: “Don’t you know that running away from home will make your sister more worried! “

Ah…

Finally!

She tilted her head and chuckled. After talking for so long, they had finally arrived at the main point.

Despite going round and round in circles, he still couldn’t help but come to the topic of her elder sister.

But…….

“Who told you that I ran away from home?” A sharp look flashed inside her eyes. That outstanding look was like the moonlight seeping through flesh and blood. It was clearly supposed to be a moment of contentment and leisure. However, in an instant, her demeanour was entirely as different as the contrast between black and white. She raised her head and smiled faintly, but the baleful aura in her eyes made people feel suffocated. 

He was stunned by her smile and his whole body went cold. He only felt that the familiar face in front of him, no longer appeared to be the same pampered and cautious person as before.

At this moment, she seemed to be a mystery, no longer the shy girl of the past. A cold expression was etched on her face, observing him and staring into the depth of his eyes, seeming to dismantle his every move.

This disdainful look, how many years has it been since he had experienced it before?

At first it felt ridiculous. But facing the cold light in her eyes, he couldn’t say a word. It seemed that there was something different in her bones…

Leng Yiyao snorted softly. Not caring what he thought, she lightly lowered her eyes.

If being lured into a desert, changing hands to become a living sacrifice and almost being cut into pieces by Lu Ming’s(prince’s) guards was considered to be ‘running away from home’, then, she naturally would like to let someone have a good experience as to what- then she naturally wants to let someone have a good experience, what is called ‘An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth’(original-Treat the person, with the way of the person i.e. treat the person, the way they treated you)…
