His disheveled yet blissful appearance finally brought the surrounding silent crowd back to their senses, and they burst into laughter.
"Others are worried about not being able to win money, but you're worried about not having enough to hold! It's infuriating!" Someone laughed so hard they almost fell over.
"This bag is probably going to burst from all the coins!"
"Why not just hug him?"
Draco couldn't help but find it amusing to see Diana both distressed by the dropped coin and worried about her bag being torn.
He walked over, gently scooped up the coins that were about to overflow, and calmly said, "If you can't fit them all in, then don't try."
"But we won them all..." Diana frowned as she looked at the coins scattered on the floor; she couldn't bear to put them down.
"Don't force it on them, trade them for chips."
As soon as he finished speaking, the crowd erupted in a frenzy, with everyone scrambling forward, afraid of missing out on the chance to redeem their tokens.
"Exchange! I'll exchange with you!"
"I want to share in the good luck! Maybe I'll win too!" A woman next to her eagerly pushed forward.
"Let me have just a little bit! Just a little bit!"
"Don't push! I was here first!"
In no time, with the help of several enthusiastic gamblers, more than 1,700 coins were exchanged for three lightweight, high-value chips, which were then handed to Diana.
One for 1000, one for 500, and one for 200.
"... So many coins, and they've turned into just three tiny ones?" Diana asked incredulously.
"Or are you planning to carry around a bunch of coins?" Diana's bewildered look made Draco burst out laughing.
"Take it, we can win a bunch more later!"
"Yes!" Diana nodded emphatically, her bright eyes looking at Draco. "Then... shall we continue playing?"
The onlookers, who had been waiting impatiently, laughed and egged them on to hurry up and move on to the next machine.
"Let's go, next one," Draco said calmly.
Upon hearing Draco's words, the onlookers instantly surged forward like a tidal wave, as if they had heard a bugle call to charge!
They followed closely behind Draco and Diana, a huge, impressive crowd, even more spectacular than a celebrity entrance.
The others in the casino were startled by the commotion and turned to look, some even thinking something major had happened.
Some people bet with great confidence:
"Definitely right! These two are practically gods of wealth descended to earth!"
"I bet a hundred, the next round will still be BAR!"
"Why even gamble? We could win with our eyes closed, I'm sticking with them!"
Most people firmly believe they can continue.
A few people who had lost money were quietly disagreeing in the background:
"You can't keep having a winning streak; you'll definitely lose the next game!"
"Luck always runs out, I'm betting this one will fail!"
"If this happens again, it'll be truly outrageous! I refuse to believe it!"
The moment the words left his mouth, a group of people around him who believed in the God of Wealth immediately retorted, "If you don't believe in us, then don't follow us!"
"Exactly, you can't stand seeing others do well, can you!"
"One machine can win about 1,800. If we move 27 more machines, we can earn 50,000." Diana walked at the front of the crowd, silently calculating in her mind.
You trust me that much?
Draco looked at her with a smile in his eyes.
"Of course I believe you!" Diana said without hesitation, "You said you'd keep winning, and you definitely will!"
Just then, a grinning man interjected, "Miss, if you had made a bet with your boss just now, your lips would probably be swollen from kissing so much by now!"
Upon hearing this, the surroundings fell silent for a moment, then erupted into even louder laughter. Many of those who followed later, unaware of the previous kissing scene, exchanged even more suggestive glances upon hearing it.
"No, don't talk nonsense! He's not my husband, he's my boss! I... I have a husband!"
Diana blushed and waved her hand in denial.
Those around were taken aback at first, then burst into even louder laughter:
"The boss's assistant? I thought you were a young couple!"
"It's a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding! But they look so well-matched!"
"Having a husband and still doing this with her boss... it's so exciting!"
"Really, it's not..." Diana became even more embarrassed, shrinking closer to Draco, and then added in a low voice.
The man then joked, "So what happened when you pounced on your boss and asked for a kiss?"
"That's just too much joy, it's not what you think..." Diana's voice trembled with anxiety.
Draco, who had been silent until now, suddenly stopped. His face was expressionless, and his cold gaze fell on the man who had asked for a kiss. "You dare to bully my assistant? Believe me, one word from her and you'll be in for a whole day of trouble?"
The man's smile froze as he recalled the terrifying scene of Diana's words becoming law, and he broke out in a cold sweat.
He didn't want to be cursed, so he quickly smiled apologetically, "Just kidding... Boss, don't take it seriously, don't take it seriously..."
As he spoke, he shrank back and disappeared into the crowd.
The surrounding laughter and chatter stopped abruptly, and the atmosphere instantly became much quieter; no one dared to say anything more.
Diana, hiding behind Draco, peeked out half her face, a proud little smile playing on her lips.
The two had just stood in front of the new slot machine. Diana hadn't recovered from her earlier shyness; a faint blush lingered on her cheeks, but her eyes were full of eager anticipation.
After suppressing a little bit of nervousness, I skillfully inserted the chips into the coin slot and then pulled down the lever forcefully.
Then, the slot machine screen lit up with a blinding light.
Six bars in total! They neatly filled the entire screen; I've never seen such an outrageous scoring lineup before!
Immediately afterwards, a deafening sound effect of a winning score exploded throughout the entire area, louder than the previous winning sound.
The coins poured out wildly, hitting the storage box with astonishing speed, instantly creating a small hill.
Diana was completely stunned. She instinctively lunged forward, wrapping her arms tightly around Draco's neck, and her legs gently wrapped around his waist, clinging to him like a small pendant.
"We won again! Collard, we won again! And it's six bars! We're rich!"
"Hold on, there are people all around..." Draco reminded her, then supported her thighs to prevent her from slipping.
His reminder snapped Diana back to her senses.
She had been so excited that she only now realized she was clinging to him in an extremely intimate and indecent position, while the people around them were watching them with maternal smiles.
The blush that had just faded instantly returned to her cheeks. Diana hurriedly let go of his hand, slid off him, and took a small step back as soon as her feet touched the ground.
Intertwined index fingers,
"I'm sorry... I couldn't help myself again..."
