Xiao Luye raised his eyebrows and said lightly, “If Rong Yan knows that Mo Jingshen was married to one woman—you—and that he took you with him even when he came to Beijing, she should know she has got no chance and stop pestering him.”

“Yes, Miss Rong has given up, but her brother has not.”

“That’s not up to him. I know he may hate you because he always gets his sister anything she likes. Now his sister finally falls for a man, and Rong Cheng won’t easily give up, even if Mo Jingshen has no interest in his sister.”

Ji Nuan glanced upstairs where Rong Cheng had gone. She took a look at Xiao Luye. “Shall I go upstairs? Who is upstairs? Will they hit me?”

Xiao Luye smiled. “No one can hit you. With me here, no one dares to do anything to you. Just stay beside me and play the cards. It’s easy to win millions.”

“Really? You guys really have money to burn.”

“Sort of.” Xiao Luye smiled.

Even Xiao Luye didn’t think she could easily leave, so perhaps she shouldn’t just leave now. Otherwise, there would be unnecessary bad consequences. Besides, although she was not very good at playing cards, she played some in London, so she was not afraid of it.

1Ji Nuan got up and went upstairs. Seeing her fearless look, Xiao Luye tutted. Going on undeterred by the dangers ahead, Ji Nuan was really the worthy sister of his.

As soon as she went upstairs, the door of the innermost VIP room was suddenly opened. A woman in a tight black dress and smelling of alcohol staggered out. When she caught glimpse of Ji Nuan, she merely glanced at her and continued to walk out drunkenly.

Then she saw Xiao Luye go upstairs, and her eyes lit up.

Ji Nuan was wondering whether it was this room, the woman’s excited voice rang behind—

Ji Nuan looked back, only to see the woman in a tight black dress throwing herself into Xiao Luye’s arms and said in a trembling voice, “I love you. I fell in love with you when I first saw you when I was fifteen. When I was young, you said I was too stodgy and boring and never took me with you no matter where you went, but now I have changed so much… Can you give me a chance? I really love you… Ah Ye.”

“…” Hearing this sudden love confession, Ji Nuan looked at Xiao Luye in shock.

The woman almost pulled open his suit, but he still put his hand in his trouser pocket and looked indifferent yet a bit gentle, perhaps because they grew up together.

But Ji Nuan had a feeling that Xiao Luye would reject this woman because she knew this man who usually looked careless and uninhibited was actually even colder-hearted than Mo Jingshen.

“Ah Ye, could you please give me a chance? I’ve been loving you for more than ten years. Now I finally got up the nerve to speak out my mind to you, but you just left without even giving me a chance to speak just now…”

Her words were soulful and sincere, but Xiao Luye, still with his hand in his trouser pocket, casually took a step back. Keeping the woman at an arm’s length, he let go of her and didn’t touch her anymore.

Keeping a distance from her, he stopped his steps, lifted his eyelids, glanced at the drunk woman who looked fashionable and sexy and no longer ‘stodgy and boring,’ and smiled indifferently. “I don’t like you, no matter the past you or your present look. You don’t have to waste your time on me. I don’t like you now, nor will I ten years later, understood?”

The woman’s shoulders immediately collapsed and asked sadly, “So you like that woman called Shi Niange? She has never responded to your advances for all these years. Everyone knows that she is in love with Qin Siting and you have no place in her heart. Why do you still…”

Xiao Luye’s eyes turned cold. “You drank so much that you lose control of your tongue?”

His voice was not high and his eyes were coldly narrowed. He seemed casual, but the atmosphere was freezing.

The woman immediately went silent, but looking at her back, Ji Nuan felt she seemed to be crying.

That was the way the world was. Excellent men and women were always chased by others. Those who didn’t know how to say no might get a seemingly romantic love, but in the end, they would find that was not the love they wanted. If you didn’t love someone, you’d better refuse in the very beginning.

1Although it sounded cruel, it was true. He never liked her once thought all these years, how could he fall in love with her now just because of her change in appearance and demeanor?

Take her for example, when she just began her second life, she tried to change her character and force herself to change, but Mo Jingshen knew her so well. He knew who she was. No matter when she was proud and unreachable, or gentle and caring, she was the same her. People just needed to be themselves and didn’t have to wear a mask that would exhaust them.

Mo Jingshen helped her find her real self back step by step.

At least she wouldn’t compromise for anyone or anything any longer. At least, she wouldn’t wear a mask or carry so many unnecessary burdens any longer.

The woman was drunk. She was supported into the VIP room by someone after crying for a while. Before walking into the room, Ji Nuan looked at Xiao Luye. Although he was really cold to the woman and saved her no face, he didn’t take advantage of her love for him and play with her, which showed that he was not a bad guy, at least not a scum.

The door of the VIP room was open. Obviously, the people inside had stopped drinking and were playing cards right now, laughing and talking.

Ji Nuan paused. These people were invited here by Rong Cheng, so they must be on good terms with the Rong family. She only knew Xiao Luye here, but she didn’t know him well. Could she go into the room?

Noticing Ji Nuan’s hesitation, Xiao Luye came over and cast a glance at her. “Since Rong Cheng has investigated you, he must know that you’re covered by the Mo family. No one will bite you here.”
