Anime Crossover: About How I Spoiled an Angel

Page 158

Perhaps sensing Yukino's expectant gaze, Su Qing finally spoke.

Upon hearing this, Yukino and the others nodded in agreement, then looked at Su Qing with expectant and curious eyes.

The other party must have a better idea to say that!

Several people thought the same thing without prior agreement.

"Since everyone agrees... let's simulate a game of Truth or Dare."

To everyone's surprise, Su Qing didn't offer any other suggestions; instead, she suggested that the group play a game.

"simulation?"

Yukino was visibly stunned for a moment.

"Practice is the only criterion for testing truth."

Su Qing offered a profound and insightful statement.

"This sounds really interesting! It seems like we haven't played any games together before. How about we play?"

Yui looked delighted, her big, bright eyes blinking as she looked at Yukino with pleading eyes.

The former didn't even utter a word, yet that familiar tone and voice had already appeared in the latter's mind.

Specifically, it means—

"Little Snow, Little Snow, let's play together~!"

"what about you?"

Yukino nodded indulgently, then asked for Hachiman and Saika's advice.

"I want to play too. Hachiman, you come along too."

After accepting the invitation, Ayaka turned to Hikigaya and gave him a bright smile.

At that moment, Hachiman felt that Saika's eyes were shining!

"Oh...okay. I haven't played it before, so I'd like to give it a try."

Hikigaya, seemingly unintentionally, uttered a sad truth in an ordinary tone.

Fortunately, everyone has gotten used to it.

"Shall we play rock-paper-scissors?"

Yukino asked hesitantly.

Although she had a general understanding of the rules of the game, it was her first time playing, so she seemed a little lost.

"No, no need." Yui waved her hand, then raised her chin and quickly pulled a deck of cards from her bag.

"Ding ding ding~ We'll each draw a playing card and compare their values."

Why is this in my backpack?

Just as Yui was praising herself for her cleverness, Su Qing suddenly asked a question.

At this moment, Yui clearly did not realize the seriousness of the matter, and instead let out a cheerful humming sound, "Of course I put it in my schoolbag a long time ago."

"How early?"

"Aido... let me think... it was when I first came to the Service Club." Yui asked curiously with a blank expression, "What's wrong, Kiyoshi?"

"It's nothing, I just wanted to know if the reason you couldn't finish the questions I gave you at first was because of playing cards."

Su Qing said with a smile.

"No, no, that's not true. Who would get addicted to playing cards? Besides, I've been completing my work on time every day lately."

Yui puffed out her chest and said with a hint of pride.

Whether it was a misperception or not, Su Qing seemed to see Yui's breasts sway.

"You're framing me! If I win, I'll definitely give you a good dressing down!"

Yui tried her best to use the fiercest tone she had ever used, but as soon as she saw Su Qing, she deflated like a punctured balloon.

Even the fierceness that was originally brewing up turned into a cute and fierce one.

[Yui seems...too cute...]

Watching Su Qing and Yui playfully bickering, Yukino's thoughts seemed to drift away again.

For some reason, she suddenly had the urge to hug Yui tightly.

It was just this impulse.

Is it because Yui is too cute, or because she is unhappy about being ignored by the two of them?

She herself probably doesn't even know it.

……

The playing cards that Yui brought were so new that the outer plastic film hadn't even been removed.

Then, considering that the other party had just said that this deck of cards was brought with them when they joined the Ministry of Service.

It's hard not to think that she wanted to play cards with Yukino and Su Qing from the very beginning—basically, a three-person version of Dou Dizhu (a popular Chinese card game).

"Wait a minute, let me shuffle the cards first..."

Yui first struggled to tear off the plastic film, then opened the package and began her clumsy shuffling journey.

"Ah...it's over..."

Before Yui could even shuffle the cards a few times, they were scattered all over the table like sand, with a few even falling to the floor.

"Let me do it."

The playing cards that had fallen to the ground were right at Su Qing's feet. He bent down to pick them up and then took over the task of shuffling the cards.

"Then I'll leave it to you, Xiao Qing."

Then, everyone saw the playing cards come to life, moving freely in Su Qing's hands.

This kind of tactic will be hard to unravel in less than ten years.

"Don't use the shuffling as an excuse to cheat..."

Hachiman suddenly thought of movies like God of Gamblers that he had seen before, and said with a feigned wariness.

However, everyone else, including Hachiman, took it as a joke.

After all, what kind of good college student would cheat while shuffling cards?

However, what they didn't notice was that Su Qing, unusually, remained silent in the face of Hachiman's teasing.

"Alright. Who wants to go first?"

After quickly shuffling the cards, Su Qing divided them into two piles.

One portion was placed on the left by Hikigaya and Saika, and the other was placed on the right by Yukino and Yui.

"Since it was Ayaka who suggested it, let's start with Ayaka, then Hachiman, Kiyoshi, and finally Yuki and me."

Yui suggested.

Since the cards are divided into two piles, the order is not particularly important.

Seeing that no one objected, Caijia simply took a card from the top of their deck.

Soon everyone received their cards.

How old is Xiaoqing?

Yui furtively craned her neck, trying to peek at Su Qing's cards.

"K, it's not like we're playing cards. We're going to reveal our cards sooner or later anyway, what are you peeking at?"

After pressing Yui's head down, Su Qing readily revealed his cards.

"Oh, it's K? Damn it, I'm Q, I almost beat Xiaoqing."

Yui said unwillingly.

“I happen to have a Jack.” Yukino looked at her cards in surprise, coincidentally forming a “small straight” with Su Qing and Yui.

“I have a 5. I should have lost…” Caijia also showed her card and said apologetically.

“I’m A, so it looks like I’m the biggest.”

Hachiman, who had never played this kind of game before, was still immersed in his own dream.

“Um… A is 1, so Hachiman, you lost…”

Caijia thoughtfully reminded her.

Hachiman's expression, which was initially one of relief mixed with joy, instantly turned to stone.

this moment.

His silence was deafening.

……

Chapter 216 The Reason for Not Being Destroyed

Hachiman flipped his cards over in disbelief, then stared intently at the large "A" on the card, his lips twitching.

"Wait... if A is one, then what are the Jokers?"

Clearly, Hikigaya wanted to make one last, futile struggle.

"I've already removed the King and Queen's names. Besides, how can the King and Queen compare sizes?"

Su Qing tossed the empty playing card box to Hachiman, who opened it and found a pair of Jokers inside.

"Keep your original ID card and a photocopy safe. Don't lose them."

Su Qing continued teasingly.

The island autonomous region does not have an ID card, but everyone can roughly understand the meaning from the literal meaning.

"What do you mean 'mine'... I don't acknowledge that."

Hikigaya returned the two cards, along with the box, to Su Qing as if he had touched a pile of dung.

Everyone except Yui burst out laughing.

"Aido... what happened to the King and Queen?"

Yui picked up the card curiously, her eyes practically glued to it, but she still couldn't figure it out.

What does "Joker" mean in Chinese?

Yukino had never heard anyone abstract the Jokers of a deck of cards like this before, and she covered her lips to try not to laugh too loudly.

"Oh, I know! It's the clown, right?"

Yui made a fist with her right hand and struck her left palm, making a crisp sound. Then she suddenly realized what she had done.

"Thank you... for even mentioning it."

Hachiman couldn't help but complain.

"Ah...sorry, I didn't mean that."

Yui gave Hikigaya an awkward smile.

"Well... it's nothing, it's all this guy's fault."

Hachiman waved his hand, but he didn't really care.

After spending this time together, Hikigaya has come to a complete understanding that Yui is unlikely to harbor any ill will towards others, so it's all Su Qing's fault!

"Actually, you don't need to apologize."

Su Qing took the two kings from Yui's hand, and, as if seized by a playful impulse, twirled them on one finger, asking:

"Speaking of which, I won just now, didn't I?"

"Stop rambling... Just give me the punishment you want."

Hachiman put on a look of resignation to his fate.

"Don't be nervous, I won't make things difficult for you."
