Love Gambit: The Untouchable Tycoon is So Dangerous-Chapter 478 - 482: How can you be so silly?

She bit her lower lip hard, not allowing herself to make a sound!

So, this is the real reason why Xing Chen suddenly distanced himself from her!

He said those heartless words on purpose to protect her...

No wonder she only heard his cold voice but never saw genuine indifference in his eyes.

Xing Chen.

You said I’m different from others.

But to me, you are truly the unique one!

How can you be so foolish?

While speaking harsh words to me, your heart must have hurt a thousand times more, right?

The past grievances and resentment all turned into deep gratitude at this moment.

Ran Xiangsi breathed carefully, even though her lower lip was bleeding from her teeth, she didn’t notice... 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

Her vision became increasingly blurry, and she didn’t dare to stay a second longer for fear of being discovered by the people in the room.

She quickly walked out of the elegant room, hiding alone in a quiet corner of the corridor, wiping the tears off her face over and over.

She didn’t know what was wrong, but it seemed like the tap in her eyes was broken.

The salty tears flowed like a flood breaching a dam, no matter how much she wiped, they wouldn’t dry.

"Idiot! Fool! Why didn’t you tell me?"

It felt like a sharp knife had pierced her heart, causing a bitter pain.

By the time she finished crying, her throat was slightly hoarse.

Ran Xiangsi sniffled, her nose red, lifting her head and trying hard to stop the tears from falling.

"Xiangsi, so many years have passed, it’s time for you to grow up. Your issues, you should handle them yourself, you shouldn’t let him worry for you..."

After saying just that one sentence, Xiangsi took a deep breath and left the Gambling Stone City.

Yes.

For some people, growth only takes a word, or maybe just a single thought.

...

Shang Dongyuan wasn’t lying; the first floor of Gambling Stone City was a stone gambling hall, the second floor was guest rooms, the third floor had a card room, the fourth floor was for billiards, and the fifth and sixth floors had various entertainment facilities.

Since it was designed to serve people, there were plenty of bathrooms and an uncountable number of toilets...

Xing Na definitely couldn’t clean them all by herself, so Shang Dongyuan quietly sent people to help her. They cleaned the toilets on four floors through the night, just barely finishing by dawn.

Shang Dongyuan didn’t dare to trouble Xing Na further, so he simply had the floors above the fifth sealed off, saying they were under renovation, allowing Xing Na to catch a break.

Xiahou Chunyi and Xing Chen also didn’t leave; they waited for Xing Na to come out, and the group left together.

At eight in the morning, Xing Chen returned to his villa.

As soon as he got home, he felt an inexplicable emptiness.

For the past two nights, Xiahou Xiu Yun had been staying at Xiahou Chunyi’s house. She hadn’t seen her brother and sister-in-law for many years, and when they met, there was much to catch up on.

She couldn’t help but stay a couple of extra days.

She also thought it would give her son and daughter-in-law some private space, increasing her chances to have grandchildren, right?

Xing Chen knew about this, so he wasn’t surprised not to see his mother.

Until...

He went to the master bedroom.

It was empty.

Frowning, he went to the walk-in closet.

Opening the large wardrobe, intending to change into clean clothes,

But the moment he opened the wardrobe, he froze.

The right side of the wardrobe, which was supposed to hold Ran Xiangsi’s clothes,

Was now completely empty...

Originally, Xing Chen’s villa was large enough with several closets, and theirs were completely separate, but Ran Xiangsi thought it didn’t feel like a married couple, so she specifically made such a large wardrobe to place their clothes together side by side.
