Chapter 89: Chapter 89: Must Never Fall in Love with HimIndeed, ruthless and indifferent.

    This time, her understanding of Rong Shaoze deepened further.

    The second round began, and Rong Shaoze signaled for the other party to reveal their cards first—it was a very large straight flush. He curled his lips into a smile, picked up his own cards, and, with his back to Lin Xinlan, spread out three cards.

    From Lin Xinlan’s angle, she could see his cards. Rong Shaoze’s were larger—he had won again.

    Only she saw his cards. He closed them up and then revealed them. The three cards suddenly changed their appearance.

    The situation had reversed. The cards that were supposed to win suddenly turned into a loss!

    Lin Xinlan’s eyes widened in shock. She couldn’t understand when he had switched the cards.

    She looked at him incredulously, even more puzzled as to why he would switch the cards.

    As if sensing her gaze, he turned his head slightly and spoke indifferently, "I said, your fate is not in your hands, but in mine."

    So that was it.

    He had deliberately let her see the cards, and then he intentionally lost.

    He wanted to make it clear to her that if he wanted her alive, she would live, and if he wanted her dead, she would die!

    Lin Xinlan didn’t know what to feel—her emotions were complex and uncomfortable. However, a clear thought flashed through her mind: she must never fall in love with this kind of person, never, even in death!

    "Shaoze, haha, thank you for letting me win," said the man who won, laughing happily, as he also picked up a dart, targeting Lin Xinlan.

    The turntable began to spin, making Lin Xinlan feel dizzy and disoriented.

    When she had seen others treated this way before, she felt only sympathy, unable to empathize.

    Now that she experienced it herself, just the rapid spinning alone was enough to be overwhelming, let alone the tremendous psychological pressure she had to endure.

    Everything in front of her was a blur. Lin Xinlan closed her eyes, feeling extremely tense.

    She could no longer hear any sounds; every nerve in her body was taut as she helplessly awaited the approaching dart.

    She didn’t know if she had been hit. As the turntable slowly stopped, she heard people clapping. Her nerves suddenly relaxed, and she hung limply on the turntable.

    Bowing her head, she opened her eyes and saw the dart at her waist. It had barely missed her.

    Without looking up or glancing at Rong Shaoze’s expression...

    She clenched her fists, a cold indifference spreading in her eyes. Her entire body was distant and on guard.

    This game, which was merely amusing in the eyes of Rong Shaoze, was pushing Lin Xinlan’s heart further and further away, to an unreachable place.

    Perhaps the time spent together had caused her to hold a bit of anticipation for him. But now, there was nothing left. At this moment, her heart was filled with more hatred for him than five years ago, an even stronger desire to escape him...

    "Shaoze, let’s play a few more rounds. It’s so thrilling; I want to play at least seventeen or eighteen rounds today," suggested the man, still not having enough, with a smile.

    Rong Shaoze glanced at Lin Xinlan, a trace of darkness flashing in his eyes. S~ea??h the ηovelFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

    "I don’t find this the least bit fun. How about we play something more thrilling?"

    The man immediately became interested. "Oh, tell me, what kind of game?"

    "We are both dart experts; playing like this surely lacks challenge. I think it would be more thrilling if we were blindfolded," Rong Shaoze said languidly.

    In his eyes, a human life was merely an item for his entertainment.

    He was like an emperor looking down from on high, condescendingly surveying everything. In his eyes, everything else was as insignificant as ants.
