Two breathtakingly handso young n faced each other with only ters apart.
Shen Yanxiao realized that her presence there was quite unnecessary. Why did she feel as if those two n were like a feast to the eyes? She touched her dull disguise and thought about how her existence was a detrint to harmony and beauty.
“Shen Siyu? I have looked forward to eting you.” Qi Xia stepped toward the other man slowly. He looked so pleasant as his crescent-moon shaped eyes glinted with a smile.
“You flatter . Everyone knows that the third young master of the Qilin Family is second to none when it cos to talent in learning magic. You are also very well-versed in business skills. I have admired your reputation for a while now,” Shen Siyu’s smile lingered as he replied gently.
Qi Xia glanced at Shen Yanxiao casually as she stood at the side with a complicated expression on her face. Then he sifted his attention back onto Shen Siyu.
“You are too kind. And you, Brother Shen, are the best amongst the young mbers in the Vermilion Bird family.”
Shen Yanxiao rolled her eyes as the two n continued to exchange praises and complints.
Could they be more hypocritical?
The Vermilion Bird family and the Qilin family had never been on good terms. Did they need to butter each other like that?
“Brother Shen, it looks like this is a rare visit from you to the Saint Laurent Academy. Why don’t I host a reception in your honor?” Qi Xia asked with a smile.
“Then, I shall gladly oblige.” Shen Siyu did not refuse his offer.
Shen Yanxiao had the feeling that the two of them were trying to establish so discreet eye contact that she did not comprehend. Otherwise, why were they so civil toward each other, and even hold each other’s arms as they galloped away to have a good ti?
Did the heads of their families know that they were in such a great relationship?
Besides, Shen Yanxiao could feel it in her bones that Qi Xia’s so-called reception would very likely be…
Shen Yanxiao wiped her imaginary tears when the three of them found themselves in front of the underground casino’s entrance.
She hoped that ntor Xie Ling could forgive her! She did not think that she would be able to make it to the Archers Division that day, again!
“A casino?” Shen Siyu looked at the dense crowd in the underground casino with surprise.
“I wonder if Brother Shen would be interested in a ga or two. We have many interesting ways to gamble here. Other than gold coins, we also accept anything of value here.” Qi Xia held a white jade bone fan in his hand and waved it sluggishly.
Shen Siyu cast a brief glance at Shen Yanxiao. Since she did not object to their presence there, he nodded and accepted Qi Xia’s invitation.
Shen Xianyao was dumbstruck when she realized that the profiteering rchant had tricked her kind and honest brother to that foul place.
Shen Siyu was a refined and gentle soul. No matter how one tried, one could not picture him as soone who would go to such places.
Did that bastard, Qi Xia, want to go after her family’s money?
That guy was a profiteering rchant, indeed. He could not even refuse to gain so money from his partner’s family.
However, in the next hour, Shen Yanxiao could finally witness what it ant to turn sothing terrible and rotten into rare and ethereal!
A small mountain of various priceless treasures had piled up in front of Shen Siyu. Shen Yanxiao could hardly breathe as she found the scene quite unbelievable!
She was too shocked to see a gentle and good-mannered young man at a stinking casino enjoying his victory at the gambling table.
It was so hard to accept that Shen Yanxiao did not know how she felt about it.
Brother, why did you not tell that you are a god of gamblers?
Please show so rcy as your silly and adorable little sister had invested her share into the casino as well!
Qi Xia was not surprised by Shen Siyu’s winnings. With a faint smile on his face, he draped his arm across Shen Yanxiao’s shoulder and shielded his lips as he whispered, “There is more to your brother than ets the eye.”
