Ke Xue exorcists demons and starts with immobilization

Although Chu Zhong also suffered quite a bit of setbacks,

Fortunately, the leather shoes were already quite thick, and Xiaolan was relatively light, so it didn't hurt too much when she stepped on them, and she could bear it.

Moreover, if we give up now, the 5000 spirit essence consumed (1000 + 4000) will be wasted!

"Here's what we'll do... drink half a sip of this, and your foot will be better."

Chu Zhong took out a gourd, which still had three mouthfuls of wine left inside. "I'll drink it first, and then I'll feed you half."

The gourd we have now is the basic, ordinary version, and it doesn't contain any famous fine wine, just sake. However, its effect of directly restoring 10% of health is considered a healing elixir even in the modern setting.

I've been busy with dungeons these past few days and haven't been to the crime scene. Every sip of wine in the gourd is one less sip left.

And since he could only drink it sip by sip, not even half a sip, Chu Zhong had to come up with a compromise.

"Ugh..." Ran Mouri looked disgusted.

Chu Zhong was speechless.

This martial arts fanatic Xiao Lan, who clearly has no awareness or vigilance regarding more important matters, is now looking down on this.

"How about this: if you can successfully reach the finish line within an hour, I'll give you an hour to study next time we face off, how about that?"

Chu Zhong recalled what the martial arts fanatic Xiao Lan had just said; perhaps it could help her…

“Okay! It’s a deal!” Xiao Lan, the martial arts fanatic, brightened up and agreed without hesitation.

It really works!

After drinking in Chu,

Xiao Lan, who was obsessed with martial arts, took the initiative to move closer and shared half a sip of her juice.

The chilled wine gradually diminished, replaced by a fragrant warmth, with a subtle, almost imperceptible sweetness.

Chu Zhong was reluctant to let her leave so soon, so he put his arm around Xiao Lan's waist.

"Ok?"

A look of doubt flashed in Xiaolan's eyes, who was obsessed with martial arts.

The alcohol you drank also takes effect at this time.

The swollen toe recovered quickly, and the pain subsided.

The doubt in Xiaolan's eyes turned into surprise, and then she drank the whole bottle of wine in one gulp...

In her crystal seat, Sonoko stared wide-eyed at the screen...

Chapter 24: Is it normal to be beaten up by a rich woman on your first time as a gigolo?

The martial arts fanatic Xiaolan drank almost the entire sip of wine.

However, this also spurred Chu Zhong on with renewed vigor.

Xiao Lan, whose feet didn't hurt, quickly put on her shoes.

The two continued dancing, slowly approaching the finish line.

period,

Chu Zhong's gaze couldn't help but sweep over the cherry lips of the martial arts fanatic Xiao Lan.

It was much better than when I was frozen in place...

Everything is difficult at the beginning.

At the very beginning, with only a meter between them, neither Chu Zhong nor Mao Lilan knew how to dance, so they had to learn by watching, stumbling and stomping their toes.

Now that Xiaolan's foot has been healed, the two are still not very skilled at dancing, but they have developed some tacit understanding.

Ten minutes later, the two had moved forward two meters.

Twenty minutes later, the two advanced another three meters.

thirty minutes……

As time went on, the two stepped on each other's toes less and less.

At first, the two would look down at their own footsteps and avoid each other's approaching footsteps.

As you become more familiar with the dance steps, you no longer need to focus on your feet; instead, you gradually start looking directly at each other at close range.

Their gazes met, as if glued together by unspoken understanding, and occasionally, a faint smile would appear on their lips at the other's mistake.

It also makes those who are in a hurry to reach the finish line, worried about stepping on others, unconsciously slow down.

Sometimes it's Chu Zhong, sometimes it's the martial arts fanatic Xiao Lan...

The rhythm of the dance steps slowed down.

The two of them were moving at an increasingly faster pace.

Until the piano music stopped,

Chu Zhongcai finally came to his senses.

We have reached the finish line—below the stage.

Looking at the countdown again, there were only five minutes left.

No near misses.

"You actually managed to teach Xiaolan to dance, you seem to be quite something."

Sonoko chuckled and said, "Ran, let's go, I'll take you to an even more fun place!"

After saying that, Sonoko jumped off the stage without any grace, grabbed Ran's hand, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

[Hidden Drop Item: Crystal Throne (Unique)]

"Crystal Throne": Weighs 1000 catties, can be sat on, and can be adjusted as desired.

Note: Recyclable, 10,000 yen per kilogram.

"A money-changing item? What kind of hidden drop is that?!"

Chu Zhong couldn't help but complain.

However, 1000 million yen is indeed a lot.

If they hadn't managed to rob Gin of his money, they might have been happy.

For now... it's just gathering dust in my inventory.

Looking at another corner of the rooftop banquet, an elevator suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

After entering the elevator, the button for the 22nd floor lit up automatically.

Ding--!

The elevator came to a complete stop.

As soon as Chu Zhong stepped out of the elevator, a man dressed as a manager approached him: "Your guest is in private room number 3."

"Work hard, that's a very important guest. If we offend her, our shop will go out of business tonight."

Chu Zhong was completely confused.

But they also grasped the key information: male head!

In other words... he's now a gigolo?

He lowered his head, and the tuxedo he was wearing had been replaced by a white shirt and slim-fit ripped jeans.

The collar was unbuttoned low, exposing his V-shaped skin; he was clearly not a respectable man!

The manager led the way, saying, "The VIPs inside are people who don't mind spending money, so we should have set higher sales targets."

"But the most important thing today is to make our VIP guests happy, so just give us 500 million yen as usual."

"It would be even better if you could reach 1000 million yen, but if it's 1500 million yen, I'll promote you to the top candidate!"

The manager's every sentence revolved around customers, and also around money.

This was Chu Zhong's first time being a gigolo, and it was in a dungeon, so he didn't know the pricing.

With a minimum turnover of 500 million yen... I didn't know host clubs made so much money?

More likely, the minimum passing requirement is 500 million yen, the medium requirement is 1000 million yen, and the highest requirement is 1500 million yen.

"What are you all standing there for? Go in, go in!"

"It would be terrible if our distinguished guest got angry!"

The manager urged them on from the side.

Chu Zhong nodded and pushed open the door to enter.

The first level was barely completed in the last five minutes, so the evaluation was definitely not high; it was probably just barely passing.

As a result, the system doesn't even broadcast periodic rewards.

You'll have to work hard in the second stage, or you'll lose a lot of money!

Unsurprisingly, two people were sitting on the spacious sofa in the private room—the martial arts fanatic Xiaolan and Sonoko.

One is on the west side, and the other is on the east side.

Behind the sofa in the garden stood three handsome young men.

Chu Zhong instinctively moved closer.

"Hey! Your guest today is her."

Sonoko raised her hand and pointed to Ran Mouri across from her, "If you take good care of her, I'll get you the highest revenue tier."

Between the sofas on either side is a wide table, on which are placed various fine wines, with prices ranging from high to low.

Turnover refers to the amount of alcohol sold.

I wonder what the gardener is up to.

Chu Zhong had no choice but to comply with the request of this "distinguished guest".

As for immobilization spells and such...

In dungeons where certain conditions must be met to clear a level, it's completely useless.

"..."

After arriving at Ran Mouri's side,

Chu Zhong and she stared at each other, wide-eyed.

Looking at the other side,

The three handsome young men fawned over Sonoko, praising her to the skies, and occasionally throwing out a joke that made Sonoko laugh uncontrollably.

"Hey, get to work!"

Martial arts fanatic Xiaolan urged, "Make me happy!"

"Don't we seem to be on the same side?" Chu Zhong reminded him.

"I don't care," threatened Xiaolan, the martial arts fanatic. "Anyway, if you don't make me happy, I'll tell Sonoko!"

Chu Zhong remained silent.

After all, they spent 4000 spirit essences to hire this outside help.

How could they have been turned in just a few minutes?

"Come on, let's fight!"

Ran Mouri stood up, took two steps back, and waved.

"Does this make any sense?" Chu Zhong reminded him. "Our combat strength is zero right now, and in this situation..."

He came to the host club just to find someone to fight.

All I can say is that Xiao Lan truly lives up to her reputation as a martial arts fanatic.
