Chapter 1166: A Good Dog Doesn’t Stand in the Way

The waitress was enchanted by her beauty and pleasant voice and was a little stunned. He returned to his senses after a few moments and blushed slightly. He said, “Of course, beautiful lady, please wait a moment.”

This casino was very large, and not only was the price of VIP cards and chips expensive, but it also meant that the service was excellent. It was not a problem to provide guests with some seasonal small items for free. Xia Yingluo waited for a while, and the waiter hurried back, not only bringing her a pair of red high heels, but also a hook-scarf shawl and a cosmetic bag.

“You did come out in a hurry,” said the waiter, still blushing. He said politely, “I hope these will help you.”

Xia Yingluo was stunned. She looked down only to find that her naked shoulders and arms were full of red and purple marks, and there were still a few bloody teeth marks, which was enough to let people’s imagination run wild. There was no need to ask to know that it had been done by Wei Lingnan yesterday night.

She scolded Wei Lingnan’s ancestors in her heart and thanked the waiter awkwardly.

She re-entered the bathroom to put on makeup and the shawl.

She had wanted to cover the ugly traces, but unexpectedly, the red and purple bruises were still faintly discernible under the silk floral scrawl on her shoulders. She looked in the mirror in anguish and tried to cover it for a long time, but when she just couldn’t hide it, she simply gave up. She set her heart on it and was ready to face death. Thus, she walked out of the toilet.

She went all the way downstairs.

The casino was open 24 hours a day and was lively at any time. When she walked through the crowded hall, lots of attention fell on her—such a rare beauty in the city, yet filled with ambiguous bruises on her body. She had a delicate little face but still walked with such arrogance. Her unselfconscious manner aroused several men, and they were subdued by her.

“Hello, beautiful lady, let me treat you to a glass of wine?” A man stepped forward to chat.

Xia Yingluo had followed her Second Brother to the night scenes since young and had dealt with scenes like this numerous times. She smiled gently and seemed to inadvertently remove the man’s hand on her shoulder, but she secretly put force and did an iron-like twist that almost dislocated the man’s shoulder.

The man’s face was white with pain. He broke out in cold sweat and couldn’t help but yelp in pain.

Xia Yingluo let go of him and said with a hint of arrogance, “I don’t drink with rubbish.”

Her voice was clear and calm, and many nearby heard it. Those gamblers who had wanted to advance on her couldn’t help but dispel the thought. A rose, while beautiful, was prickly. If they couldn’t take her and yet ended up in a sad state, it would truly throw their face.

Xia Yingluo saw their interest. She sneered softly and passed through the crowd elegantly like a swimming fish.

She was almost at the exit when she was stopped. She looked up and saw her enemies—Zhao Yixuan and Pei Yan.

“Good dogs don’t stand in the way,” she said coldly. She had lived for more than ten years in her life, and besides the frightful Wei Lingnan, she hated the pair of dogs in front of her now. If it hadn’t been for them, how could she have somehow lost to Wei Lingnan and suffered so much humiliation? This feud was simply irreconcilable, and one day, she would pay it back double.

Pei Yan held Zhao Yixuan with one hand, the two looking very intimate. Her eyes could not help but linger on Xia Yingluo and she sneered haughtily. “It seems that Miss Xia had a good time last night? Your whole body is full of bruises… tsk tsk.”

Thanks to Xia Yingluo, she and Zhao Yixuan had lost all their chips last night. How could they forget it?

She couldn’t help but ridicule her at the sight of Xia Yingluo’s fragility.

Xia Yingluo was furious, but she didn’t want to satisfy Pei Yan, so she sneered back and said sarcastically, “Miss Pei, why don’t you take care of your own business first? You lost all your money yesterday night, so why are you still hogging in the casino? Are you waiting for the casino to give you leftovers or you’ve lost too much and you can’t wait to regain it back? What a pity, don’t you know the phrase ten bets nine losses? Furthermore, you’ve offended me. The people who have offended me are always unlucky.” She wasn’t deceiving them, those who offended the Phoenix bloodline were always doomed to bad luck.

But these two people just didn’t know what was good for them. They had to immediately gamble their luck after offending her.

Pei Yan and Zhao Yixuan’s expression turned sour.

She was right.

Last night, the amount that Zhao Yixuan had lost was almost all the property that he had saved up for all these years. He was not reconciled and borrowed money from Pei Yan, wanting to earn it all back. And, although Pei Yan had not bet as much as Zhao Yixuan, she still lost a lot of money that couldn’t be ignored. Thus, she simply transferred a large amount of money from her account and bought lots of chips, wanting to make a comeback. They gambled for the whole night and continued losing, and all their remaining chips had been lost.

Zhao Yixuan wanted to cry but had no tears. At this time, he was not only bankrupt but was in lots of debt as well. He had never been so annoyed in his whole life.

And all this was Xia Yingluo’s fault!

Zhao Yixuan felt anger rising in him as he thought of this, so he purposely mocked Xia Yingluo too. “I didn’t expect you to be such a woman, so shameless and fickle. It seems any man can sleep with you, are you shameless?”

Xia Yingluo did not expect such words to come out from his mouth and felt pain in her heart.

Shouldn’t he know more than anyone else that she had run all the way here alone for him?

He was the one who had broken up with her and flung her into the fire pit of selling her body, but in the end, he still dared to put on a dignified face and criticize her for being fickle?

She simply wanted to laugh, the sadness and absurdity in her heart were mixed together, and she couldn’t tell what feeling it was. The only clear thing was that she would never feel anything for this man anymore. This man made her sick.

“Get away,” she said. “Trash is not worth talking to me.”

“Who are you scolding!” Zhao Yixuan was furious.

“I’m saying you’re rubbish.” Xia Yingluo didn’t back down and glared directly into his eye.

“You! You… you are good.” Zhao Yixuan was scolded in front of so many people, and his voice trembled with anger. “Xia Yingluo, look at your current state, what are you! What’s the difference between you and a wild prostitute? Anyone can sleep with you casually as long as they have money, as easily as going to a public toilet! Who are you to put on airs!”

His anger was real and distressful.

She looked so beautiful as if she had changed from a pure and tender little girl into a woman with a scent of roses overnight. He was jealous of the man who had won her last night. At the thought of her willingness and joy underneath the man, he was so resentful it felt as if a fire was burning in his heart—how could she let other men touch her, how dare she?!
