Luca finally let out a sigh of relief.
He took a big gulp, feeling the cold liquid slide down his throat into his chest, temporarily dispelling that craving for excitement that drags countless people into the abyss.
"Luca? Why are you sitting here alone, where's Sava?"
Before he could even warm the chair, a familiar voice suddenly came from the noisy crowd nearby.
He looked in the direction the voice came from.
He saw Xia Nan and Vier walking towards him.
He quickly stood up, a slightly awkward grin appearing on his face, scratching his head as he replied:
"Uh... I got a bit bored, came out for a break."
"Sava is still playing over there, she seems to be on a roll, so I didn't want to disturb her."
Following Xia Nan's gaze, his eyes swept over the chips on the Dragon Descendant poker table, then glanced at Luca's somewhat shriveled pouch and the glass of wine on the table before him.
