"Master Chu, I'm not quite sure what you like exactly, so I gathered a few people here. I took it upon myself to prepare some things — what would you like to do?"

Sidling up to Chu Ge, Liu Weijiang spoke the opening line he had deliberated over for nearly a day, even practicing in front of the mirror several times until he felt it was just right.

Although it was a simple sentence, Liu Weijiang had put a lot of thought into it. He concluded this was the best way to phrase it — polite enough but not overly sycophantic.

After all, from his encounters with Chu Ge, Liu Weijiang felt that Chu Ge wasn't fond of overly direct flattery. But he couldn't avoid flattering him either, so the method mattered.

It must be said, flattery is an art in itself.

Since Liu Weijiang wasn't in a hurry to get to the point, Chu Ge was even more laid back. Sitting down on the sofa, he smiled and said, "Anything goes; I'll go with the host's choice."

Chu Ge's response was within Liu Weijiang's expectations. He quickly said, "Master Chu, why don't I suggest a few activities and you can pick? Since I've invited you here today, there's nothing more important than your enjoyment. If you're not having fun, then it would be my fault."

When it came to fighting, Liu Weijiang would undoubtedly be no match for Chu Ge. But when it came to having fun, he was full of confidence — having spent most of his life figuring out how to play.

Seeing Chu Ge nod, Liu Weijiang immediately began introducing the activities he had painstakingly prepared for him.

As he introduced them, several attractive women, who had been briefed by Liu Weijiang earlier, gathered around Chu Ge. One helped him light a cigarette, one held an ashtray, another presented a glass of red wine, and yet another carried a tray with glasses and snacks.

With these girls providing him with such comprehensive service, the feeling was undeniably great. Moreover, Chu Ge could see that Liu Weijiang had put a considerable amount of thought into these arrangements.

As Liu Weijiang elaborated on the various activities he had arranged, he subtly observed Chu Ge's expressions. After all, he intended to discuss some assistance from Chu Ge today. If Chu Ge wasn't entertained, Liu Weijiang wouldn't have the face to bring it up.

Coincidentally, he also wanted to use this opportunity to gauge Chu Ge's interests.

But what slightly troubled him was that Chu Ge's face maintained an enigmatic smile throughout, leaving Liu Weijiang unable to discern what specifically intrigued him.

Luckily, Chu Ge seemed to be in a fairly good mood, which somewhat eased Liu Weijiang's initial nervousness.

After Liu Weijiang finished speaking, Chu Ge took a puff of his cigar and chuckled, "Haha, Young Master Jiang, you really went to great lengths. Earlier, I heard you mentioned darts. Why don't we play that?"

Hearing Chu Ge address him as "Young Master Jiang" again, Liu Weijiang felt flattered and delighted, thinking that his efforts were not in vain, and the meeting with Chu Ge had gotten off to a good start. He also believed things would develop as he hoped.

He quickly nodded, showing a somewhat ingratiating yet secretly smug smile, "Master Chu, if I may boast a little, darts is actually my favorite activity. Great minds think alike!"

The words weren't entirely just a polite exchange from Liu Weijiang's mouth; he genuinely had a passion for darts from a young age.

After years of practice, his dart skills, while maybe not supernatural, were enough for him to never meet an opponent in his circle.

In his view, he might not be able to outshine Chu Ge in other games, but when it came to darts, he could at least regain a bit of face today.

Of course, despite his absolute confidence, he didn't intend to actually beat Chu Ge. He planned to go easy, just enough to leave a good impression on Chu Ge.

Just picturing how Chu Ge might be impressed later, Liu Weijiang couldn't help but feel a bit excited, and his enthusiasm rose even higher.

After Chu Ge entered, it was the first time his smile was genuinely from the heart, and as he continued to smile, he got a bit distracted.

Seeing Liu Weijiang grinning foolishly, Chu Ge couldn't help but feel speechless. Is playing darts really something to get this excited about?

After waiting for a few seconds and seeing that Liu Weijiang still hadn't said anything, Chu Ge had to remind him.

"Young Master Jiang, where are your darts?"

Hearing Chu Ge's voice, Liu Weijiang suddenly snapped back to reality, realizing his gaffe. He awkwardly scratched his head, casually picked up a silver case from the sofa that looked very premium, and once again showed a rather mischievous smile.

"Master Chu, my darts are right here, hehe, please take a look."

With three parts nervousness and seven parts anticipation, Liu Weijiang opened the case with a "click," revealing several rows of specially crafted darts neatly lined up in slots.

Seeing these "darts," Chu Ge chuckled, not knowing where Liu Weijiang had gotten these things. It both surprised and amused him.

Not only did Chu Ge find it amusing, but when Liu Weijiang opened the case, the whole room of "princesses" burst into giggles — they had never seen such peculiar darts before.

Although they had the shape of darts, these were much larger than normal, and their appearance was far from the traditional dart design.

The dart was long and heavy, more like a "flying pillar" than a dart.

Seeing the amused smile on Chu Ge's face, Liu Weijiang finally felt relieved. All his previous anxiety was replaced by immense joy. He felt like he had made the right gamble and was over the moon about it.

Originally, he had been somewhat worried that Chu Ge might not be interested in these uniquely designed darts. If it backfired, it would be a disaster.

But now, it seemed his worries were unnecessary. Chu Ge wasn't the old-fashioned type and was quite interested in new things.

Just based on Chu Ge's smile, he felt that taking out these treasures, which he usually didn't let others touch and kept at home like art pieces, was worth it.

"Chu, what do you think of this dart?"

Chu Ge curled his lips, "It's interesting."

With Chu Ge's positive response, Liu Weijiang felt even more delighted.

"Chu, the marvel of these darts isn't just in their appearance. Once we start playing, you'll see the real magic of these darts. I guarantee you'll find it even more intriguing."

"Oh? Then I look forward to it."

Liu Weijiang picked up a specially made dart and continued to laugh, "Chu, how about we have a little competition? Add a bit of a wager?"

When Liu Weijiang said this, Chu Ge immediately got the hint. This guy was trying to take the opportunity to offer him some benefits.

However, Chu Ge wasn't planning on being polite to Liu Weijiang. After all, this guy's money wasn't exactly earned cleanly. Since he wanted to give, Chu Ge was ready to take it without any psychological burden.

"Let's hear it."

Liu Weijiang had been waiting for this from Chu Ge, so he immediately explained with great enthusiasm.

"Chu, there are a total of thirty darts. We each get fifteen. The target is the ladies in the room. Hit the heart area, it's 5 points; hit the abdomen, it's 10 points. Other areas are judged based on their distance from the heart or abdomen. Once all the darts are thrown, whoever scores the most points wins. What do you think?"

Chu Ge chuckled, "From what you're saying, these darts won't fall off when they hit the target?"

"Chu, you're really brilliant! Your intelligence is leagues ahead of mine! When I first got these things, I never even thought of that point!"

Liu Weijiang's eyes lit up. He slapped his thigh and hurriedly half-fawned, half-seriously flattered.

Hearing Liu Weijiang say this, Chu Ge couldn't help but laugh. Although it was a compliment, he found Liu Weijiang's comparison with him oddly awkward.

Chu Ge rubbed his forehead speechlessly and asked, "And the wager?"

"Haha, why not bet on the hotel room expenses here?"

Chu Ge nodded, just as he thought, Liu Weijiang was trying to give him a couple of thousand bucks.

After a little consideration, Liu Weijiang tentatively suggested, "If you don't mind, Chu, let's add another condition: whoever wins gets to pick a girl to give them a massage while the loser can only watch jealously from the side?"

In Liu Weijiang's view, if Chu Ge could agree to this condition, it would certainly help bring them closer together.

Under Liu Weijiang's somewhat anxious gaze, Chu Ge laughed heartily and nodded readily, "No problem."

Seeing Chu Ge nod again, Liu Weijiang was once more taken aback with surprise, unaware that Chu Ge had spent years living on the edge, having traveled to many countries for missions or relaxation, trying various games with no holds barred.

In summary, Chu Ge was never a goody-goody and had no qualms about playing any kind of game.

Just as Liu Weijiang was about to call the ladies over to play, Chu Ge suddenly said, "Wait," leaving him stunned.

Frozen for two seconds, Liu Weijiang quickly asked, "Chu, what's wrong?"

Chu Ge thought for a moment and smiled, "Let's change the targets. Playing with them isn't that interesting."

Hearing this, Liu Weijiang couldn't help but feel quite frustrated. Good heavens, this Chu's taste is a bit too high, isn't it? These ladies were handpicked by him, and yet Chu didn't even fancy them?
