Chapter 162 It felt like my whole body was enveloped
Li Xiao glanced at him, his face calm.
This person is the complete opposite; no one can see a single thought in him.
Even He Xinbai couldn't guess. He patted his shoulder with a bright smile and leaned closer to whisper ambiguously, "Look at this reaction, it's chaotic."
"Looks like she's the kind of person who, once she's stuck with you, you can't shake her off. After all these years, she's still the same as before. How about it, Young Master Li, why don't you try some?"
Li Xiao had already withdrawn his gaze, not looking at him, and it was as if he hadn't heard him speak.
He Xinbai said regretfully, "Look at how stubborn this girl is. If you don't go along with her, she'll probably never get married. What a pity. Why is no one ever treated me like that?"
Li Xiao remained unmoved.
He Xinbai draped his arm over Li Xiao's shoulder and said, "You don't actually like men, do you? Go after Chen Jinyan, he has long hair and can be both male and female."
Li Xiao gestured with his eyes that he knew his patience was running out.
He Xinbai clicked his tongue in boredom, stepped around behind Li Zhixian, and placed his hands on the back of her chair. "Zhixian, you've become a teacher now?"
Li Zhixian looked up and met his smiling face, which was arrogant and infectious.
She turned her gaze away haughtily, "I'm really good at playing mahjong, okay?"
"How good are you?" He chuckled and leaned down slightly to look at her cards.
Li Zhixian snorted, "Go to Brother Jin Yan's territory empty-handed, the kind of place where you can come back empty-handed."
A hearty laugh came from above, making her roll her eyes. "Is it that funny? If you laugh every day, you'll end up with a face full of wrinkles when you get old."
Chen Jinyan smiled at her, "Shall I take you to try it another day?"
Li Zhixian has not yet responded.
He Xinbai smiled at him, a smile that, though seemingly sunny, inexplicably gave off a sinister feeling.
"If you're desperate for money, just tell Li Xiao and ask him to give you some. Bringing our Zhixian into this is such a complicated process, how many twists and turns would that take?"
Li Zhixian pursed his lips and chuckled, ignoring what they were saying, and continued drawing cards.
Chen Jinyan walked up behind Li Zhiyun, who was the only one alone, and said, "You can experience it even if you don't go."
The meaning is quite obvious.
Li Zhiyun smiled gently, and she had become a pawn.
"The four of you, another table would be just right."
He Xinbai smiled and shook his head at her, "Zhiyun, you don't understand. Games are more fun when you have a beautiful woman by your side."
Li Zhiyun smiled and turned slightly to Chen Jinyan behind her, saying, "Brother Jinyan, aren't they overestimating themselves?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Jinyan smiled elegantly and said, "Little sister, keep a low profile."
Upon hearing this, Li He let out a mocking laugh.
Li Xiao merely glanced at him calmly, his gaze showing that he didn't take him seriously.
He Xinbai couldn't stand Li Zhixian's pretentiousness, so he gently patted Li Zhixian's head and said, "Don't think you know anything just because your family does this kind of thing. Zhixian, let's beat him up!"
Li Zhixian: ...
Whose head are you patting? Who is Ah Xian calling? The dog?
She shook her head and shook off his hand. "He Xinbai, my hairstyle!"
He Xinbai laughed and let go of her, then absentmindedly brushed the frizzy hair off her head.
Bo Wei cried out inwardly, "I came here to learn how to play mahjong! How come I'm just sitting here, and it seems like I'm no longer involved?"
Li He saw through her mood at a glance, smiled and hooked her finger, "It's time to test the academic genius."
Bo Wei: ...
Seeing this, Huo Ran beckoned to a waiter, "Bring chairs for these demon pills."
Magic pill?
Who is it?
The waiter glanced at the few people standing by the card table, understood what he meant, and immediately did as he was told.
Soon, several waiters brought over chairs and placed them behind the group.
After placing three magic pills behind the three demon pills, Huo Ran gestured to the waiter who was still carrying chairs over that he didn't need them.
“What’s so interesting? Come on, let’s find someone to set up another table.” He put his arm around Lu Xianzong’s shoulder, and the two headed towards a more crowded area.
Once they were a little further away, he released Lu Xianzong's shoulder and said, "Let's stay away from the Demon Orb to avoid getting into trouble."
It almost ruined his plans.
He went to great lengths to find so many people, just to see if he could find one he liked.
I need to prove to Li He and Lu Xianzong that I'm not gay!
The two had left, leaving only eight people on this side.
Fu Yingshi noticed out of the corner of her eye that someone had placed a chair next to her. She silently held her breath, keeping her eyes fixed on the side.
he?
Shall I sit down?
Her heart was pounding.
She didn't react when it was her turn to draw a card.
An arm reached out from behind her, bent down, picked up a card, and without a second's hesitation, played it.
Fu Yingshi's head was throbbing, and she stood there blankly, stunned.
It was as if the whole person was enveloped.
It felt warm against my back, and I could hear his breath as he leaned over.
A rich yet subtle fragrance surrounded her, carrying the aura of a mature man, which intoxicated her, leaving her completely disoriented.
Li Xiao withdrew his hand, stood up, glanced at the chair placed next to him, and sat down.
Fu Yingshi felt like a crab in a hot pan, frantically tucking her hair behind her ear, then quickly letting it go when she realized her peripheral vision was too good.
Li Xiao glanced at her sideways. "Draw a card."
Is it her turn again?
Fu Yingshi's heart jumped into her throat. She hurriedly looked at the cards, drew a card, and then drew another card!
Her hand swung helplessly in the air twice.
Bo Wei pursed her lips, suppressing a smile, and pointed before she accurately touched it.
As she drew the cards, she struggled to figure out where to put them, her head darting around trying to identify them.
The eyes are like those of an illiterate person; they can only see the symbols but cannot understand them.
She raised a hand and decisively drew a card from the bottom of her hand and threw it out.
Soon the other three players took their turn, and she still hadn't found a home for the cards in her hand.
Li Xiao looked at her calmly.
Fu Yingshi felt him looking at her and looked at him in a panic.
But then she met his calm gaze, a gaze that held a hint of disdain, speechlessness, or something else entirely.
Just a glance.
It was as if a bucket of ice water had been poured over her burning heart, leaving it completely cold.
She withdrew her gaze, turned her head, and secretly clenched the soft flesh inside her mouth.
That glance seemed to mock all her previous panic.
A bittersweet feeling welled up inside me, followed by embarrassment.
My anxious heart seemed to gradually calm down and settle back into its proper place.
She looked at the cards in her hand, and in that instant, her eyesight returned. She inserted the cards and raised her hand to draw more.
Her outstretched hand was snow-white and delicate, contrasting sharply with her short, dark brown manicure.
Li Xiao's gaze fell on the hand, then he calmly looked away.
There are eight people at the mahjong table.
Although Bo Wei and the other three were sitting in front, they seemed like puppets to the four people next to them.
After a few rounds, what she thought was a lucky hand turned into a math problem.
