Chapter 7: Queenly Aura

If Zheng Qian hadn't booked a booth and ordered the God Dragon set, he probably would have been treated like an ordinary person.

Things are different now.

"I've had a bit too much to drink, and my brain is struggling to keep up. If I ask anything I shouldn't, please don't be angry with me." Zheng Qian feigned ignorance while knowing perfectly well what was going on.

"How could we, Young Master Zheng?"

"I'm going to the restroom." Zheng Qian stood up and left.

"I'll go with you." Qin Xueli offered to accompany him.

"I'm going to relieve myself, why would you follow me? To help me undo my belt?"

"Hahaha, Lili, you must be drunk."

"Exactly, she's had too much, haha."

Zheng Qian arrived at the restroom and deliberately splashed his face with water. Looking at himself in the mirror, his face was flushed red.

Just now, while playing dice, Zheng Qian had lost quite miserably and been made to drink quite a bit. He had almost reached his limit; if he kept drinking, he would probably pass out, which would be too embarrassing.

However, ninety-nine percent of things in this world can be solved with money.

If he couldn't drink or play as well as them, Zheng Qian could just call in reinforcements to help him.

Thus, Zheng Qian waved his hand and called the salesperson over.

"Brother, what do you need?"

"Do you have anyone here who can hold their liquor and is good at playing dice?"

"If you do, bring them to my booth to drink, and I'll order another large God Dragon set."

The salesperson looked at Zheng Qian's flushed face and was a bit confused.

Four girls, and you can't get a single one of them drunk, and you need someone else to help you do the pouring?

That's honestly a bit weak.

But that had nothing to do with him; as long as there was money to be made, it was fine.

"Alright, Brother, I'll arrange it immediately."

After Zheng Qian returned to the booth, the salesperson quickly brought over a tall girl with eyebrows like distant mountains, a face like a new moon, and eyes as clear as autumn water, wearing a cinched-waist sportswear outfit.

Her attire was indeed a bit unconventional here, but it depends on the person; worn by this girl, it gave off a unique aura.

"Brother, this is the team leader of our bar's sales department, Jin Lu."

A sales team leader—in other words, she must be the top star of Red Rose.

Zheng Qian felt a bit of pity.

If she worked in any respectable profession, given her looks, figure, and qualifications, there would definitely be plenty of people willing to throw money at her.

With a girl like this, why not do something else? Why insist on coming to a bar?

Although Zheng Qian hadn't been to bars often, he had heard things about bar sales staff—that they would sacrifice their souls just to get customers to open a few more bottles and boost their performance.

The male salesperson had also said she was a sales team leader. Without some real skill, how could she be a sales team leader in a place like this, filled with glitz and glamour?

It was a pity, truly a pity.

Actually, the male salesperson had another implication: that Jin Lu was the top star of their Red Rose.

"Young Master Zheng, I am Jin Lu. You can just call me Shuangshuang."

"Do you know how to play dice?" Zheng Qian asked.

"I do."

"Are you good at it?"

"I'm decent."

"Then come help me play."

"Bring another large God Dragon set, charge it to my card."

[Spent 88,888 yuan, system cashback of 888,880 yuan has been credited.]

This time, the system's cashback was actually credited.

The music throughout the venue cut off abruptly again, and the haze from the dry ice was even thicker than before. The spotlight hit Zheng Qian's booth and stayed there for a full half-minute.

The salesperson couldn't hide the excitement on his face; this was truly a huge order for tonight!

He even used the microphone to shout to the entire room: "Young Master Zheng at booth 65, another large God Dragon set!"

The face was given in full.

Ai Qingyue, Xinxin, Angela, and Chen Feiyu looked at each other in dismay.

Just how rich is Zheng Qian?

In one night, he ordered a large God Dragon set and a small God Dragon set in succession; that was already over a hundred thousand yuan spent.

He couldn't drink anymore, and even ordered another large God Dragon set and called a girl in the bar to drink for him.

Even if you have money, you can't spend it like this, right?

Calling him Young Master Zheng earlier was just being polite.

Now, they really had to call him Young Master Zheng.

Besides a rich second generation, who else could spend money like this?

Qin Xueli was stunned inside by this.

Two large God Dragon sets and one small God Dragon set—that was already over two hundred thousand yuan.

Could Zheng Qian be planning to max out his credit cards and then, instead of paying off the bad debt, just jump off a building?

Impossible, no one would be stupid enough to go that far.

Zheng Qian must have really won the lottery.

And it must have been a significant amount, at least a few million, right?

Just now, Xinxin and Angela had already set their sights on Zheng Qian. With him ordering another large God Dragon set, they would definitely have to compete with her head-on.

How had she not realized this sooner?

If Zheng Qian didn't have money, how would he dare to ask her out?

If she had known earlier, she wouldn't have called these three people. Now, it was a mess; the man who was originally hers, she now had to fight for.

"Alright, since Young Master Zheng is supporting me so much, let's change the way we play. Let's do a gauntlet run." Jin Lu said with a look of confidence, proposing a single-player gauntlet.

Her aura was very strong. Facing those at the table, she didn't show a hint of stage fright. No matter which table she went to in the entire bar, she could reverse the roles of host and guest, turning it into her own home turf.

Zheng Qian also paid a little attention; Jin Lu's Favorability towards him was only 10 points, which surprised him greatly.

After all, he had spent so much money, yet in Jin Lu's eyes, he was just a passerby-level customer; it was truly rare.

Girls like Ai Qingyue, Xinxin, Angela, and Qin Xueli would have seen their Favorability increase quite a bit after such extravagant spending.

Perhaps in Jin Lu's eyes, Zheng Qian was just an ordinary customer with a bit more money.

Coming over to drink with Zheng Qian was just her job; she had no other thoughts.

"This young lady can go first." Jin Lu gestured to Qin Xueli on her right.

"I can't drink anymore, I'm not playing." Qin Xueli was actually sulking a bit and refused.

Jin Lu didn't care about Qin Xueli at all: "Fine, then the next person."

Angela looked unconvinced. Bring it on, who's afraid of whom?

Just because she's a bit prettier... while rolling dice has a technical element, many times it comes down to luck.

"Leopard, double it."

"Double sixes and a four, please drink."

"Double fives and a three, I accept your concession."

After two rounds, Jin Lu hadn't lost a single game, which really surprised Zheng Qian. Jin Lu had just said she was "decent" at dice; this is what she calls "decent"? She's incredibly strong, okay?

He couldn't play as well as them, couldn't drink as well as them, so he could only hire someone to be his enforcer.

Winning two rounds right off the bat made Zheng Qian feel very satisfied.

Is this... the power of money?

Looking at the few who had been forcing him to drink earlier, now looking unconvinced, he felt quite good inside.

"Double threes and a two, eight points."

Jin Lu rolled a low number for once.

Everyone thought she was sure to lose this round and would definitely have to drink.

But who knew, Angela rolled an even smaller number than Jin Lu's.

"Double twos and a three, seven points, please drink."

Angela drank a glass of alcohol very reluctantly, but she didn't pass the dice to the next person: "It was just by a little bit, I'm not convinced, let's go again."

"Sorry, let's do the next round."

Jin Lu's entire aura was very strong; she wasn't intimidated by Angela at all.

A loss is a loss. If you're not convinced, roll the dice with me again in the next round.

In the bar, she seemed just like a queen.

Zheng Qian was starting to feel a vague interest in her.

"Not bad, you play really well. How can I support you so it counts towards your performance?" Zheng Qian paused the game.

"Young Master Zheng, just ordering drinks is enough."

"Alright, bring another large God Dragon set."

"Charge it."

[Spent 88,888 yuan, system cashback of 888,880 yuan has been credited.]

This time, Zheng Qian was spending money for Jin Lu, so the system also gave cashback.

"Alright, thank you for your support, Young Master Zheng." Jin Lu smiled sweetly at Zheng Qian, making his heart bloom with joy.

He mainly wanted to observe if there would be any fluctuation in Jin Lu's Favorability towards him.

But apart from a "thank you," Jin Lu's Favorability towards him remained at 10 points; there wasn't even a flicker of change.

This surprised Zheng Qian greatly.

He thought that with a large God Dragon set as support, it should at least increase by a few points.

Who would have thought, not even one point!

This woman is interesting.

Zheng Qian's interest in her grew even stronger.

Is it possible that she is a girl who keeps her virtue?

That sweet smile simply hooked Zheng Qian's heart, yet Jin Lu's Favorability towards him hadn't changed at all.

Now he could be almost certain that Jin Lu was not a woman who could be won over with money.
