Lu Zhixi only felt like her heart was being slammed by something. She gritted her teeth and said, “I heard that Your Royal Highness King of Hell is talented amazing and renowned. I always thought you are a heroic character. However, it turns out that these aren’t true.”
Her words were extremely hostile, but Nangong Yu didn’t seem to hear it at all. He completely ignored her and walked in.
Lu Zhixi continued, “Your Royal Highness King of Hell, you asked your subordinates to spend a big bet on Xi Yue to increase his odds. What is it for? Do you really think Xi Yue can beat me tomorrow? Aren’t you doing this to disturb my mood and make me tired of these mundane things so that Xi Yue can have a chance to win tomorrow?”
“Even if Xi Yue is your best friend, doesn’t King of Hell feel that what you did is too much? Even if Xi Yue wins tomorrow, it is just an unfair victory!”
As soon as Lu Zhixi said this, Nangong Yu really stopped.
He turned around with a cold gaze, revealing a mocking expression.
It could be because of the disappearance of the spirit pressure, at this moment, his face was alluring and handsome under the moonlight. It made those who saw that couldn’t help feeling excited.
Lu Zhixi was staring at him in a daze. His mocking voice slowly sounded, “Fairy Zhixi is it? You’re really confident. You really think you can win?”
Lu Zhixi was taken aback; she almost blurted out, “What did you say?”
Nangong Yu sneered, “You asked me why did I bet so many crystal stones? Of course, I want to win the crystal stones. I never think of losing my bet.”
He… Does he really think Xi Yue can beat me? This feeling of being underestimated made Lu Zhixi’s heart burst into anger.
She gritted her teeth and said, “Don’t forget, I’m the one who sees the young city lord first. As long as I can cure the young city lord’s disease, Xi Yue will never have a chance.”
“Oh, then I’ll wait and see.”
After saying this, Nangong Yu’s figure had disappeared behind the curtain.
Lu Zhixi stood there quietly for a while, and the moonlight shone on her bright white face as if it was coated with a layer of frost.
After a long time, her handmaid Lu Yin hurried over and said, “Miss, why are you standing here alone? Senior Li and Miss Ren came to look for you.”
Lu Yin walked to Lu Zhixi, but she hadn’t responded for a long time; she couldn’t help but shout again, “Miss? Miss? What’s wrong with you?”
Lu Zhixi breathed out slowly, shook her head and said, “It’s nothing, let’s go back!”

As soon as Nangong Yu returned to his room from the yard, he saw Hexi who was leaning at the window and looking at him with a half-smile.
Nangong Yu’s eyes lit up. He was about to walk up and hug her into his embrace.
Hexi turned around like a fish, and she got out of his arms. Then, she turned and wrapped Nangong Yu’s hand with natural silk, then she leaned toward him and looked up with a smile.
Hexi’s smile was gentle. Under the candlelight in the room, it gave people a blood-pumping feeling.
Especially the pink and delicate red lips, they were like the stamens blooming slowly in the spring with dewdrops and nectar in them. They were so soft and fragrant, making people want to pick them and chewing them into their stomachs.
