The School Beauty's Super Rogue

Shirley lives in a country with a small population, and since she belongs to the nobility, her family owns a vast estate.

She hardly ever sees anything besides servants and a forest in her daily life.

Now that she's finally come to Huaxia, she naturally wants to experience the bustling city life.

One could say this girl is using all her strength just to satisfy her curiosity.

Whether it's a shopping street, plaza, statue, or beach, you can find her footprints wherever there are crowds.

Later, due to all the walking, her ankle started to feel a bit sore—clearly a side effect of too much running around.

During this time, Qin Hao quietly followed behind her, neither catching up nor joking around, but rather maintaining a respectful distance, looking every bit like a competent bodyguard.

This behavior left Shirley very curious and annoyed, but out of dignity, she didn't approach Qin Hao for conversation. She even had lunch alone at a small roadside shop.

In the afternoon, after a day of wandering, Shirley arrived at a street lined with bars.

When she saw young men and women entering a game arcade, she couldn't resist going in as well.

Well-educated as she was, it was her first time setting foot in such a place.

When she saw all kinds of claw machines, dance machines, basketball machines, and other facilities inside, her eyes almost lit up: life in Huaxia is so amusing!

With clumsy Chinese, she bought some game tokens and started trying each machine.

Thanks to her profound dance skills, even though Shirley had never tried K-pop dances, she moved beautifully on the dance machine with pure vitality, instantly attracting a crowd of onlookers.

After finishing a dance, Shirley stepped down and saw many pedestrians staring at her, making her blush with a sense of small pride.

Then, she went to the claw machine area and stopped in front of one filled with Pikachu.

"So cute, it's actually my favorite Pikachu!"

Shirley's big eyes were filled with longing, and she started playing immediately without another word.

But after ten minutes and using up hundreds of coins, she hadn't caught a single toy!

"What's going on? I clearly grabbed it every time, but just before a successful grab, the toy would fall..."

Shirley's eyes were a bit red from not getting her beloved Pikachu, leading to deep disappointment.

"Dear Princess, this claw machine may seem simple, but there really are techniques involved."

At this moment, a familiar voice came, as Qin Hao approached from behind.

"What are you doing!"

Shirley feigned anger and put on a stern face.

Qin Hao chuckled, "Here to help you catch a toy!"

Inside, though, he was quite troubled, thinking, I've been waiting for you to talk to me all day, and yet you're acting so aloof!

Unable to bear the loneliness, Qin Hao finally took the initiative to strike up a conversation.

"I spent over a hundred coins and couldn't get one. You think you can?"

Shirley wanted to shoo Qin Hao away initially, but somehow the words changed on her lips.

Qin Hao smiled confidently, "There's nothing in this world I can't handle."

"Shameless Huaxia man."

Shirley said with pretend disdain.

"If you don't believe me, Princess, how about we make a bet?"

Qin Hao blinked with a mischievous smile.

"Sure!"

Shirley didn't believe he could do it, and said, "I want this Pikachu!"

Fearing a streak of luck might actually help him, she quickly added, "And this one, this one, and this one!"

She pointed out four different Pikachu, all sticking their tongues out adorably.

"No problem!"

Qin Hao patted his chest in assurance, bought some coins, and just before starting, he grinned, "Princess, if I manage to get all four toys for you, you have to call me 'my knight.' How does that sound for the wager?"

Originally, he wanted her to call him husband, but considering her upbringing, he figured that wouldn't be proper.

"My knight..."

Shirley tried saying it to herself and found it very cheesy and embarrassing. But, for the sake of the challenge, she huffed, "Alright, let's bet. Go ahead and try!"

"Alright."

Qin Hao smiled confidently, inserted a coin, and pressed the button.

He casually grabbed the lever, and after a bit of shaking, the claw inside the machine grabbed a Pikachu and dropped it out.

"What!"

Shirley's pretty face showed surprise; she didn't expect Qin Hao to catch one so effortlessly.

Quickly, under her watchful eyes, Qin Hao inserted another coin, repeated the process, and another toy fell out, precisely one of those she had pointed at!

"How is this possible!"

Shirley was both amazed and perplexed. In her fluctuating emotions, Qin Hao inserted two more game coins and successfully caught the chosen Pikachus.

"Princess, here are your toys."

Qin Hao's voice brought Shirley back to her senses, where he stood holding up four toys for her.

"You… how did you do it..."

Shirley's mouth felt sour; although unwilling to admit it, she had to acknowledge her loss.

Her only curiosity now was why Qin Hao could succeed every time, while she had failed dozens of times!

Qin Hao chuckled proudly, "Ah, that's because I have advanced skills."

Inwardly, he thanked the 'Fatty' for giving him the key button.

For any slot or claw machine, pressing the key button could make any machine malfunction.

Hence, he could triumph effortlessly, becoming the claw machine legend.

"Specifically? How do you do it?"

Shirley was very excited; she really wanted to know the secret so she could catch many toys she liked.

Qin Hao just laughed without saying anything.

Shirley's face changed, and she bashfully lowered her head. After some thought, she looked up, her cheeks tinged with blush.

Then, with a slightly trembling voice full of shyness, she said, "My... my... knight..."

"Ah, that sounds truly delightful."

Qin Hao said with a face full of pride, "However, Princess, to learn the secret, you'll need to agree to another condition of mine."

"I already called you knight!"

Shirley was anxious.

Qin Hao shook his hand, "You forgot that you lost the bet and should have called me that anyway. This is a separate matter altogether."

"What do you want then!"

Shirley said in a huff and then immediately regretted it because what if he asked for something inappropriate?

Would she really have to comply?

Thinking about it, Shirley felt her ears getting incredibly warm.

"Ahem, ahem."

Hearing Shirley's impatience, Qin Hao steadied himself and, after regaining his composure, said seriously, "I feel the knight title is too Westernized, so I hope Princess can go with the local custom and call me 'Good Brother' a few times."

"Good Brother" was said in Chinese, and Shirley didn't know what it meant, but from Qin Hao's expression, she could tell it wasn't anything good.
