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?
