I’ll Lose Myself to You

The air seemed to have frozen.

Shen Li met his gaze. Her peach blossom-shaped eyes were cold, dark, and calm, and no emotions could be seen.

Lu Huaiyu was afraid that she would close the door, so he gripped the doorknob tightly, his palms sweating slightly.

Seeing that she had not spoken, his throat tightened again, and his voice became even lower.

“Ah Li…”

“How did Second Brother know I was here?”

Shen Li suddenly asked.

Lu Huaiyu’s remaining words suddenly became stuck in his throat.

This matter was also difficult to explain.

She had been here three years ago, so of course, she knew the rules here.

The privacy of all the VIP guests on the second floor was strictly protected, and even the dealer representing the guests would not know the specific room of the guests.

But now, he had come directly to her.

Just then, a voice suddenly came from the corridor.

Lu Huaiyu turned his head and saw a waiter standing not far away. He was holding a silver tray with a box on it.

The Night of the Milky Way.

He seemed to have just come up the stairs from the first floor. He turned slightly to the side, adjusted his headset with one hand, and said in a low voice, “I haven’t reached the room yet. Yes, okay, I’ll go back now…”

Shen Li raised her eyebrows. The waiter had obviously received an order and was not intending on coming over.

As for the reason?

Lu Huaiyu pursed his thin lips.

Ning Li called out to the waiter, “Aren’t you going to return my things to me?”

Hearing this, the waiter was shocked and quickly looked up.

Since the guest had already seen it and taken the initiative to ask for it, of course, the item had to be returned, but–

The waiter’s gaze stopped on the young man standing at the door for a moment, and a hint of conflict flashed through his eyes.

He’s also here now…

Shen Li tilted her head and looked at Lu Huaiyu.

It was a brief silence but it seemed extremely long.

Her red lips lifted slightly into a smile.

“The people who are trained by Second Brother’s subordinates shouldn’t refuse to return a guest’s items, right?”

Lu Huaiyu closed his eyes and clenched his fists. After a few seconds of silence, he finally turned his head and looked over.

“Bring that thing over.”

The waiter did not dare to disobey. He quickly walked over and stood in front of the door. He bowed slightly to Shen Li and said, “Your watch.”

Shen Li took half a step forward and stopped. She raised her head and looked at the man who was blocking the door. She raised her eyebrows.

“This is Second Brother’s territory, how could I possibly run away?”

Only then did Lu Huaiyu let go of the door handle and took the box from the tray. His fingers tightened slightly.

“I can explain.”

“Ahem!”

A voice suddenly came from the door.

Lu Huaiyu raised his eyes slightly and looked inside, only to find that there was another person in the room.

Wen Xiao.

Yes, she had sent him a message before, saying that she had something to deal with and had gone out with Wen Xiao.

At that time, he had thought she was talking about car racing matters, but who knew…

Wen Xiao’s mentality was also about to collapse.

He could never have imagined that Saint was actually Lu Huaiyu!

What was even more devastating was that it seemed like Lu Huaiyu’s relationship with this place was not an ordinary one!

Too many things had happened that night, and his head was buzzing.

Both of these people, both of these people…

Even though he was still a short distance away from the two of them, he could clearly feel the subtle and tense atmosphere in the air.

How could an old man withstand this?!

He might go crazy if he stayed for another second!

“Well… why don’t I go out first, and you two can have a good chat here?”

Wen Xiao said and made a move to leave.

Shen Li tilted her head and said, “What else is there to say? Wasn’t everything that needed to be said already said at the gambling table?”

Wen Xiao stopped in his tracks.

Lu Huaiyu stepped aside.

“Thank you, Uncle Wen.”

Wen Xiao’s temples ached.

Why did this couple have to involve him in their fight?

From the beginning to the end, what did it have to do with him?!

Shen Li continued, “I came here with you, so of course, I’ll leave with you.”

Wen Xiao held his breath.

Lu Huaiyu said, “Don’t worry, Uncle Wen. I’ll personally send Ah Li back later.

Wen Xiao took a deep breath.

He only had one thought now– He wanted to die!

Because he had been worried that his great aunt would behave in a crazy manner, he had specifically kept an eye on her during the LY celebration party this afternoon. He had not let her drink and had not touched a single drop of alcohol himself.

Now that he thought about it, it had been a waste of effort.

Even if this lady did not drink, she still could not be provoked!

Hadn’t she come here tonight for Lu Huaiyu?

While Wen Xiao was facing this dilemma, his phone suddenly vibrated.

He quickly took it out and saw that it was Ji Shu.

Wen Xiao had never been so happy to receive a call from this little– No, this kid!

He picked it up without any hesitation.

“Hello? Ji Shu?”

Perhaps it was because his tone of voice was different from usual, Ji Shu was stunned for a moment before he replied, “… Coach?”

“Is there an urgent matter?”

“Not really. It’s just that Siyang, Ron, and the others were planning to go out for another meal tonight, but there was no one in your room just now. Did you and Sister Li go out? ”

“Alright! I’ll go back immediately!”

Wen Xiao’s answer was decisive.

Ji Shu was stunned. “No, I’m just asking casually…”

“Yes, this matter can’t be delayed! I’ll be quick, you guys just wait!”

After that, Wen Xiao hung up the phone and said with a serious expression, “Ah Li, there’s really something else I have to do. I’ll be taking my leave first.”

Without waiting for Shen Li’s reply, he left in a hurry.

After a while, his figure was hidden in the dim light.

Now, only Lu Huaiyu and Shen Li were left in the room.

Lu Huaiyu lowered his eyes and looked at her.

“Ah Li, shall we talk inside?”

As he spoke, he reached out to take her wrist.

Shen Li stood up straight and took half a step back, cleverly avoiding his hand. She tilted her head and smiled.

“This is Second Brother’s territory. Isn’t it just a matter of Second Brother to just say the word and be able to go wherever he wants?”

Lu Huaiyu’s chest seemed to be blocked by something.

He wanted to hold her hand again, but he was worried that she would be even angrier, so he had no choice but to restrain himself and follow her into the room, locking the door from the inside.

Shen Li turned around and walked inside.

“This room shouldn’t be as spacious as the room that Second Brother gave the key card for?”

Lu Huaiyu felt that all the regrets he had in his life could not compare to what he had felt tonight!

“Ah Li.”

His nerves had been tense since “The Night of the Milky Way” had been in danger.

Lu Huaiyu’s voice was bitter.

“I… I didn’t know it was you.”

Shen Li stood still and turned around. She stared at him for a few seconds and smiled, “I only just found out about it myself. Also, it was only today that I realized that the reason I was tricked by Saint three years ago was because I ruined his place.”

Back then, she had easily won a large sum of money and the journey had been smooth. Naturally, she had felt proud.

However, the appearance of Saint had put an end to her pride.

That was why she had been brooding over this matter.

However, it was only now that she knew the reason.

“Now that I think about it… I didn’t lose in vain. Today’s battle can be considered…”

The string finally snapped.

Lu Huaiyu grabbed her wrist and stared into her eyes. His voice was extremely low as he enunciated each word clearly, ”

“Shen Tangtang, I’ll give myself to you.

“Can you let me lose one round?”
