Erina Nakiri's palms were sweaty with nervousness, secretly paying attention to Satou's hints while repeatedly hesitating between Yuki Yoshino's cards.
"Alright, Satou! You're secretly helping your girlfriend!"
Ryoko Sakaki discovered Satou's actions and couldn't help but expose him.
"I was just casually looking."
Satou quickly said.
"That's right!"
Erina Nakiri also quickly explained, momentarily forgetting to refute Ryoko's claim that she was Satou's girlfriend.
"Miss Erina, hurry up."
Yuki Yoshino urged, and then Satou saw a cold smile appear at the corner of her mouth as she secretly moved the Joker closer to Erina Nakiri's hand.
Satou was instantly speechless. This was too cunning. If it were someone simple-minded, they would definitely subconsciously draw that card.
Sure enough, Erina Nakiri didn't hesitate at all and directly drew the Joker.
"Great!"
Yuki Yoshino laughed mischievously.
"Eh? Miss Erina actually fell for such a simple trick?"
Ryoko Sakaki said amusingly. When Yuki Yoshino played with them, it never worked.
"Hehehe, come on, Miss Erina, I'll help you put on the sticker."
Yuki Yoshino giggled as she stuck a paper strip with a little turtle drawn on it onto Erina Nakiri's fair cheek.
Erina Nakiri bit her silver teeth, her forehead full of black lines.
Suddenly, she threw the cards directly onto the floor and roared, "This frivolous game is not fun at all! I'll never play it again!"
Twenty minutes later.
"Miss Erina, this time you must draw well."
Yuki Yoshino said with a giggle.
"I... I know!"
Erina Nakiri said irritably.
At this moment, her face was already covered with paper strips, looking incredibly funny.
Yuki Yoshino, Tadokoro Megumi, and the others had no paper strips on their faces, because they were all stuck on Erina Nakiri's face.
"Darn it, this time I definitely can't draw the Joker!"
Erina Nakiri clenched her teeth tightly, her palms sweaty with nervousness.
At this moment, Satou saw a cold smile appear at the corner of Yuki Yoshino's mouth, and she secretly moved the Joker closer to Erina Nakiri's hand again.
Then, Erina Nakiri once again drew that card into her hand.
Satou: "..."
"She fell for it again!"
Even Ryoko Sakaki and the others exclaimed in surprise.
Every time Yuki Yoshino just moved the Joker into Erina Nakiri's hand, Erina Nakiri would definitely draw that card, always without fail.
"Hee hee, I won again!"
Yuki Yoshino happily made a victory sign, then stuck a paper strip on Erina Nakiri's face.
"What's so fun about this game anyway!"
Erina Nakiri threw the poker cards onto the floor and roared.
...
An hour later.
"Then we'll be going."
Satou carried the sleeping Erina Nakiri on his back and bid farewell to everyone.
"Hmm, goodbye."
Yukihira Soma whispered, as most of the people in the room were asleep.
After all, everyone had been tired all day, and even Erina Nakiri, though her daytime training was completed easily, was still a girl and easily fatigued.
Satou carried Tsundere back to their room.
"Damn it, I'll definitely win this time!"
Erina Nakiri murmured sleepily on his shoulder.
Satou shook his head. Although Tsundere was very enthusiastic about playing poker, her card skills were really too poor. She was always fooled by Yuki Yoshino's simple tricks and lost all night.
After returning to the room, Satou placed Erina Nakiri on the bed, helped her take off her shoes, and covered her with the quilt.
After some thought, he kissed her on the face.
"This is the price for carrying you back."
Satou nodded with satisfaction.
Then he also quickly washed up and went back to his own bed to sleep.
Although they were now in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship, taking advantage of the other person while they were asleep would be taking advantage of someone in a vulnerable state.
Satou was not that kind of person.
The next day, after waking up, the two of them, as usual, squeezed in front of one washstand to brush their teeth.
"Damn it! Move over a bit! Don't squeeze me!"
Erina Nakiri's golden hair was a mess, and her forehead was full of black lines.
She had originally thought she could finally have a few days of peace, but she didn't expect to have to share the same bathroom with this guy again. It was truly infuriating!
The two of them finished washing up amidst bickering, and then Satou made two portions of scrambled eggs and two portions of cabbage salad, which he and Erina Nakiri ate for breakfast, each drinking a glass of milk...
"I'm going to class now."
Erina Nakiri said, changing into her school uniform.
"Shouldn't you give your boyfriend a hug before you leave?"
Satou smiled slightly and opened his arms.
Erina Nakiri's face flushed slightly. Remembering that she had agreed to be his girlfriend, she hesitated for a moment, then walked over and quickly hugged Satou, before running out with a flushed face.
Satou shook his head, then also left the hotel, met Tadokoro Megumi, and the two of them boarded the bus together, heading to today's training location.
...
A French restaurant under Far Moon Resort.
"Hello everyone, I am your guest Instructor, Donato Gotoda."
Donato Gotoda greeted everyone, "My class is very simple: in pairs, complete the dishes on the menu and satisfy me."
Subsequently, he distributed the menus to all the students.
Each group's menu was different, but all had six dishes: appetizer, soup, side dish, main course, vegetable dish, and dessert.
It was exactly the complete sequence of a Western meal.
"Then everyone can start. You have two hours, so be quick! If a dish exceeds the time limit, it will be treated as expulsion."
Donato Gotoda said with a smile.
At his words, everyone immediately began to busy themselves.
"Satou, let's start quickly too!"
Tadokoro Megumi also immediately said.
"Okay."
Satou nodded. He was studying the recipes on the menu when he suddenly paused slightly and said, "The recipes given by the Instructor seem to have some problems."
"Huh? Problems?"
Tadokoro Megumi couldn't help but be surprised. These were recipes personally given by the Instructor, could there be a mistake?
Ps: I'm hesitating whether to write Kojiro Shinomiya's storyline.
If I write it, there are too many in other fanfics, so there's not much new to write.
But if I don't write it, since we're already at the Accommodation Training, it doesn't make sense.
Please give me some advice...
