Wang Shuo clicked his tongue, his temple throbbing. "Don't just keep greeting me."
Xiaoyao then seemed to wake up from a dream, scratched her head awkwardly, and turned to Chuanliu and Qianchuan.
He first looked at Qian Chuan, his eyes filled with a hint of awe, and whispered, "Sixth Brother Qian..."
Then he turned back to look at Wang Shuo, seemingly struggling with how to address Chuanliu.
Seeing this, Wang Shuo shook his head slightly and smiled, "Didn't I tell you before? Just like me, you're called Chuanliu Sister."
Xiao Yao's cheeks immediately flushed red. He rarely interacted with women except for work, and he would blush nervously whenever he talked to a girl.
Wang Shuo had tried to help him overcome this problem, but each attempt ended in failure.
Previously, Wang Shuo had specially invited beauties from another industry chain in Red Peach City, hoping to help Xiao Yao overcome this problem by getting in touch with experienced men.
However, Xiao Yao was so frightened that she fainted, and from then on, Wang Shuo gave up on the idea.
Wang Shuo thought that this phenomenon might only be temporary, and that if he saw more people and chatted with them more, things might gradually get better.
At this moment, seeing Xiao Yao unable to utter a word for a long time, Wang Shuo felt extremely helpless about his sworn brother, thinking to himself, "Why has this guy become like this again?"
Seeing this, Chuanliu smiled and said, "Just call me Chuanliu, that's what everyone calls me."
Xiaoyao breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this, nodded hurriedly, and stammered, "Kawa, hello Kawaru, it's nice to see you again!"
His voice was still trembling slightly, but the joy in his eyes was genuine.
Wang Shuo chuckled, put his arm around Xiao Yao's shoulder, and introduced, "Chuanliu is now 'Square 10,' she's the highest-ranking person below the higher-ups, Xiao Yao, you should communicate with her more often and share your experiences."
Wang Shuo continued to lead the group on a tour, with Xiao Yao naturally following behind him.
Whenever they passed the game table, the other dealers would greet Wang Shuo and also signal to Xiao Yao.
They had great respect and appreciation for Xiaoyao, and showed no disrespect for him because of his age.
Some veteran gamblers even showed awe towards Xiaoyao, their eyes filled with fear as if they had been completely defeated by the young man before.
They whispered among themselves, their curiosity evident as they discussed the people behind Wang Shuo.
"Who were the people Brother Shuo brought on the visit?"
"It must be Brother Qian Liu and his lover."
"Brother Qian Liu has a lover? How come I didn't know?"
"Then who else could it be?"
"Can't you have some common sense? Just because she's a woman doesn't mean she's your lover. I heard that Brother Qian Liu was recently spotted in the Wuwang District with his new girlfriend, 'Square 10.'"
"You're saying that little girl is the '10 of Diamonds'? Don't be ridiculous!"
"What about the little boy who followed behind?"
"A little boy? Ah...you mean Haruka?"
"You don't even recognize Haruka Shinshou?"
"Divine Hand Yao?"
"That's right! 'Two of Hearts' 'God-Handed Yao'! His gambling skills are unmatched!"
As this title spread, everyone was in an uproar and turned their attention to Xiao Yao. They then realized that this young man was the legendary "God Hand Yao," the master who had never lost at the gambling table.
"Is it really that amazing?"
Someone couldn't help but ask.
"Let me tell you, I've never seen him lose!"
Someone answered excitedly.
Hearing the surrounding chatter, Wang Shuo's smile widened. He glanced back at Xiao Yao, his eyes filled with pride and satisfaction.
Xiaoyao truly lived up to his expectations; she did not disappoint him.
When the tour was almost over, Wang Shuo stopped and turned to Chuanliu, saying, "So, what do you think? Our Red Peach Casino is pretty good, isn't it?"
Chuanliu nodded and remarked, "Xiaoyao has a lot of prestige at the Red Peach Casino."
When Xiaoyao heard Chuanliu's praise, a blush crept onto her face.
He lowered his head shyly, his bashful demeanor bearing none of the air of the legendary master "Divine Hand Yao".
Seeing this, Wang Shuo immediately patted Xiao Yao on the shoulder and praised him, "Xiao Yao is now the top dealer here, and everyone here respects him."
Then, he suddenly remembered something and said excitedly, "We said we'd have a chance to spar last time we met. This time it's on our turf, so you can't refuse!"
At the mention of sparring, Xiaoyao's eyes lit up immediately. He nodded vigorously, his eyes sparkling with anticipation.
It seemed that Xiaoyao could only overcome her nervousness and shyness when communicating with the opposite sex when talking about his professional field. The young man's eyes immediately became bright and piercing, and his entire demeanor changed significantly.
Qian Chuan was also quite interested. He had witnessed Xiao Yao's skills and Chuan Liu's methods.
It's just unknown who is better between the two.
Seeing this, Chuanliu also became very interested, and she smiled and said, "I'm really looking forward to it."
"Haha, great!"
Wang Shuo rubbed his hands excitedly and immediately led the group upstairs to the VIP room.
This was Chuanliu's second time entering this VIP room.
The last time she came here, she was the one who was kidnapped, and she did her best to protect her "3 of Diamonds".
Now, she has somehow managed to climb up to the high rank of "10 of Diamonds".
Last time, she pretended to be a novice and accidentally scratched the game table. But this time, the game table was brand new, as if it were waiting for a new round of competition.
Xiaoyao and Chuanliu stood on opposite sides of the game table, while Wang Shuo and Qian Chuan sat on the side.
Wang Shuo took the initiative to host the event and excitedly announced, "We're playing dice again today. The rules are simple: each person has five dice in their dice cup, and the person who rolls the highest number wins."
The two men, each holding a dice cup, nodded to each other.
In an instant, Xiaoyao's demeanor changed, and he became calm and confident. His face showed nothing but seriousness.
Perhaps it was Xiaoyao's pure heart that made her do something so innocent.
With Wang Shuo's loud "Start the game!", Xiao Yao and Chuan Liu moved almost simultaneously.
Xiao Yao's hands were like precision tools honed through countless trials. He skillfully picked up the dice cup, flicked it lightly with his fingers, and produced a crisp sound.
His gaze was firm and confident as he stared intently at the dice cup, as if he could see through it and control the movement of each die.
Chuanliu's movements were as fluid as flowing water. She quickly picked up the dice cup, her fingers lightly gliding across the rim, as if soothing the restless dice.
Every movement she made appeared natural and fluid, as if these movements had become an integral part of her being, an instinct.
