"Naoki, come on, you'll be very happy as long as it's a gift from someone you like."
Mayari felt a little jealous. She didn't know when she would be able to fall in love. It was too torturous to eat dog food every day.
Chapter 94: Duel with the ghost god Shinxuan, saving Meiari.
In the blink of an eye, it was afternoon break time. As usual, Mayari went to run the casino with Hanatemari and the others, while Naoki went to find Sakura with the gifts he had prepared.
By now, Naoki is considered a famous figure in the academy, although he became famous because of his scandal with Sakura and his dispute with Mibu Tatsuki.
In addition, she seemed to have a vague connection with other student union cadres. When she walked across the campus to the student union building, many people recognized her and glanced at her a few more times.
The feeling of being famous and being watched can make people feel nervous, but since they are all students, Naoki didn't feel too much pressure.
Because he wanted to give a gift, Naoki called in advance to confirm that there was no one working or other people in Sakura's office before going to her office.
"Sakira."
Naoki first stood on tiptoe and gave the other person a hug.
Sakura responded to her, and the two of them stayed in silent contact for five seconds before letting go.
"Sakura, I have a gift for you."
Naoki took out the gift box he prepared for Sakura and urged her to open it on the spot.
"Are you in such a hurry? Is it food or something? But ordinary snacks wouldn't be packaged like this, right?"
Sakura smiled helplessly and opened the gift.
The selected perfume was revealed, and Naoki was quite satisfied with the smell of this perfume.
"Why did you think of giving me perfume?"
"Well, because this perfume has a couple's edition, which is rare."
"Thank you Naoki."
Sakura expressed her gratitude gently and politely.
The atmosphere in the room was quite harmonious and peaceful.
but……
Naoki:……
Why not increase favorability?
Could it be that their relationship is so good that giving gifts is as common as having dinner together, and has no important meaning, so it won’t increase their affection?
Actually, it is understandable. After all, it is just a gift picked randomly. I can only hope that Sakura doesn't dislike it. If I insist on saying that it is very attractive and she likes it very much, it is impossible to give it with an ordinary gift.
Anyway, Naoki didn't expect to win over Sakura by giving her a few gifts.
It becomes harder to increase favorability as time goes by.
Nowadays, giving gifts and having meals together are just to maintain goodwill between lovers.
Although the favorability level is 68 now, it may drop if you don’t spend time together all the time and occasionally go on dates like lovers and give gifts.
So, this afternoon, Naoki took the initiative to stay next to Sakura, watching her work and touching her with his little hands from time to time.
……
On the other side, the Culture and Arts Department Casino.
Those working today are Meiari Saotome, Katsuragi Hanatemari, and Naoki's new employee, Oori Shimotsuki.
"Your drink."
Xiayue Meioli had a world-weary look on his face and placed a drink in front of a new customer.
Everyone who participates in the gambling can get free drinks, and coupled with beautiful attire, this was the initial strategy of the Arts and Culture Department Casino to attract customers.
However, there is a reason why people in the service industry are required to be extroverted and friendly.
It has to be said that Xiayue Maioli's aloof and world-weary expression is extremely lethal to ordinary students.
"Uh... this... thank you..."
The customer felt inexplicably displeased as if he was being looked down upon. Could it be that he was not dressed properly today?
Some introverted students who were watching the gambling game were even more uncomfortable with the aura of Xiayue Maioli, who kept strangers away. Those who originally wanted to join in the game also felt uncomfortable and left.
It didn't take long for Meiari to discover this major problem.
As an employee recruited by Naoki, Shimotsuki Meiori certainly has his own talents.
But, it seems that he is not suitable for entertaining at all!
If this continued, all the customers would flee. The casino would not make any money, and the 25 million he owed Naoki would be nowhere in sight.
Meiari immediately stepped forward and invited Shimotsuki Aori to come down. "Shimotsuki Aori, why do you need to do this kind of work? Someone as smart as you is more suitable to be a dealer."
"Ge Long, come here for a moment."
Mayari swapped the two people's jobs, and everything instantly felt harmonious.
The sullen dealer wasn't a big deal; her smooth dealing proved her professionalism. Her indifference proved she wasn't colluding with anyone.
Shimotsuki Meiori herself doesn't care about her job. Anyway, it was because of the bet with Naoki that she was both convinced and dissatisfied with Naoki's opening bet of four with both hands.
As a gambler, she had the magnanimity to accept defeat. However, this lucky streak made her feel that the difference between them wasn't skill, but luck.
"Oh well."
With a gentle and amiable smile, Ge Long served drinks to the guests at the gambling table. He would even ask the students who were just watching if they wanted something to drink and would offer them a glass of orange juice or cola.
Some students were too embarrassed to just take the drinks and leave, so they would go on stage and gamble ten or twenty thousand yuan.
Meiari watched the casino running in an orderly manner and nodded. It turned out that Ge Long was the one who was suitable for this job.
Ge Long's natural temperament is gentle and without any lethality, so no one feels threatened and it is very comfortable to be around her.
The door to the Arts Department was pushed open again, and several tall students walked in. Hanatemari Katsura immediately stepped forward to greet them: "Welcome, guests!"
But the next moment, the expression on her face froze, and she instinctively felt that the visitor was not friendly.
The silver-haired male student at the front didn't even look at her. After glancing at all the gamblers, dealers and others in the venue, he pushed her aside and walked inside.
Behind him were two male students with the same domineering temperament and a boy who came with them but seemed to have been brought here by force, with a cowering face and body and a livestock tag hanging on his body.
Meiari, who was in the backstage, immediately noticed the movement at the door. Seeing the appearance of this group of people, she guessed that these people were here to cause trouble.
Seeing the cage being knocked open, Mayari frowned, suppressed her anger and strode forward.
Before she could speak, the silver-haired man in the lead looked her over and sneered, "You must be Saotome Meiari."
"Yes. I don't think I know you, but this is the Arts Department's casino, and only guests are welcome. If you're just trying to cause trouble, I'll contact the Student Union immediately."
"Huh, the student union?"
The silver-haired man seemed irritated by this, a bit disdainful, and then sat on the chair brought by the two men, "I'm here to gamble. What's the matter? The casino owner is afraid to open for business?"
If it comes to gambling, Saotome Meiari is certainly not afraid.
"Since you want to gamble, then queue up."
The students present saw that the silver-haired man and his group seemed to be hostile and wanted to cause trouble, so most of them did not want to get involved. They quickly ended the game and left their seats.
Shimotsuki Uori, the dealer, collected the cards from the table and glanced at the man out of the corner of his eye.
She didn't know this man, which meant that he was either an unknown student in the academy, or he was a new transfer student.
He asked for Saotome Meiari as soon as he opened his mouth. It seemed that there was a grudge between them. But no matter how he looked at Saotome, he had no impression of her at all.
"Where's your boss, Utsugi Naoki? Let her come out and gamble with me."
Meiari Saotome's heart skipped a beat; it turned out to be Naoki's rival. However, as the owner of the casino, she certainly wasn't so weak as to go after Naoki the moment something went wrong.
"She's not here. If you want to play, I can accompany you. If you can't afford to play, leave quickly and don't prevent other students from coming in."
The silver-haired man's lips curled slightly. "It's not bad to deal with you first. Saotome Meiari, do you dare to make a bet with me? I'll decide the rules, and the stakes are 10 million."
The huge bet of 10 million made Mayari's heart beat wildly, but money is not so easy to earn.
This man must have come prepared.
Most people might be afraid of high risks and the unknown and choose to retreat, but Mayari is someone who will move forward even against the wind and waves.
"You tell me the rules first."
"Nothing, just a simple dice game."
……
Just when Naoki and Sakura were happily being affectionate, there was a sudden knock on the office door.
Judging from the rhythm of the tapping, it must be something urgent.
So Naoki tidied himself up a bit and took the initiative to open the door.
Outside the door was a beautification committee member. She was slightly startled when she saw Naoki and said, "Naoki-san, someone is looking for you."
The one who appeared from behind was Hanatemari Kazuro, who was so anxious that she was about to cry.
"Naoki."
"What's wrong? Ge Long, don't be anxious, speak slowly."
Naoki patted her back to calm her down.
"Meari, she gambled with someone and lost, and she became a livestock."
"Eh?!"
Naoki raised an eyebrow in surprise. Anyone who could take down Meiari must be a master in the academy, but didn't Meiari run a casino? How could she suddenly accept such a high-stakes gamble that could turn her into a domestic animal?
Is he anxious because he can't pay back his debts?
Naoki continued to ask: "What's going on?"
"By the way, Sakura, I have something to do, so I'll leave first."
After hastily saying goodbye to Sakura, Naoki followed Hanatemari Katsura back, asking about the whole story on the way.
"A man came to the casino and asked to gamble with you, Naoki. Since you weren't there, Mayari accepted the challenge and bet 10 million."
"Oh? Looking for me?"
Naoki thought to herself that this time, Meiari was probably implicated by her.
"What's the bet? What's the man's name?"
Ge Long said, "Roll the dice. We don't know that person. We heard he's a new student who just transferred in. His name is Shi Guishen Zhenxuan."
Naoki:……
Well, she knew how Mayari lost.
Naoki sighed.
"The rules of the dice game are to compare the big and the small, but that person didn't play. Instead, he asked one of his livestock to compete with Ya Yali. He also said that if the livestock lost, he would be thrown from the building."
"Meari...could have won."
Having said that, Katsura was moved by Meiari's kindness, but his face was filled with indignation towards the enemy's insidiousness and despicableness.
The whole story is very clear. This man named Shiguishen Zhenxuan never thought about competing with gambling skills. In order to win Mayari, he used livestock and Mayari's conscience as a human being to make her admit defeat.
Yes, the enemy's methods are despicable, but even if you know this, can you bear to watch strangers get seriously injured or even die?
If winning this game really costs one's life for the rest of his life, then a kind person like Mayari will be tortured all the time.
After all, Mayari's own talent is that her abilities are halved in gambling games where she maliciously seeks profit against her conscience. This is enough to prove that she is a kind girl with a clear bottom line.
……
However, if ghosts and gods are so mysterious, why would they come to me?
Who asked him to come?
Naoki already had a guess in his mind, after all, that person hadn't made any move for a long time.
Sure enough, what is coming will come sooner or later.
