Chapter 589 - 589 590 Heart-to-Heart (19)_1
?Chapter 589: Chapter 590: Heart-to-Heart (19)_1 Chapter 589: Chapter 590: Heart-to-Heart (19)_1 As she guessed, some feelings were stirring within her, but it wasn’t until Liang Chen confirmed it, that she felt as if something was abruptly swelling inside her chest.
Jing Haohao’s breathing became a bit unsteady, and she gripped her clothes tightly. This feeling was unfamiliar, unlike any sensation anyone else had ever stirred within her.
Jing Haohao stared fixedly at Liang Chen. For some reason, she thought the man before her was entirely different from the one she had known.
Or perhaps, she had never genuinely understood Liang Chen.
About ten minutes later, Jing Haohao felt a sour sensation in her eyes. She blinked lightly, returning to reality, only to find that the man’s gaze was still ardently fixed on her. His eyes held many emotions that made her heartbeat skip a beat.
Jing Haohao instinctively averted her eyes. A woman’s intuition told her that Liang Chen’s gaze was still on her. As a result, her heartbeat quickened, and her body temperature surged.
Jing Haohao blinked lightly. Instead of looking at Liang Chen, her gaze flitted about. Suddenly, as if thinking of something important, she asked, “What was the last card you bet against Mr. Suzuki?”
Only when Liang Chen heard Jing Haohao’s question did he tear his gaze away from her.
Was it because he hadn’t seen her for so long? She was just quietly sitting across from him, making him helplessly want to gawk at her until the end of time.
Liang Chen lifted his wrist to check the time; it was time to board the plane. He called over a server to pay the bill and then answered Jing Haohao’s question, “A two of hearts.”
Though Jing Haohao didn’t gamble, she knew how a straight flush bet worked.
Mr. Suzuki had a pair of kings, so for Liang Chen to win, he must’ve held a spade ace. However, in his hand was a two of hearts, no matter what Mr. Suzuki’s last card was, he could easily beat him.
Liang Chen had bet with the Jiangshan Group even though he knew he would lose… Jing Haohao widened her eyes. As she followed Liang Chen out of the restaurant, she asked, “Knowing that you were going to lose, why did you bet with the Jiangshan Group? If Mr. Suzuki hadn’t folded, you would have lost everything!”
Jing Haohao’s voice became somewhat agitated towards the end. A layer of fear surfaced in her heart. This man… he was so close to losing everything!
“If it’s gone, it’s gone.” In the face of Jing Haohao’s agitation, Liang Chen appeared calm and dismissive. He uttered this phrase carelessly, then smiled at the flight attendant leading them to board the plane and handed over their tickets. He then turned to look at Jing Haohao, whose face was a bit flushed from the excitement. The smile in his eyes deepened. Was she getting nervous for him?
The feeling was so good.
She just didn’t know that in such a situation, he could only move forward; there was no turning back.
The Jiangshan Group was his territory to defend, like a king fighting for supremacy in ancient times. But when it came to her, all the lands and worlds could go; he could give them all up.
