Chapter 186: Make A Difference
Even if Tsunade wasn't keen on admitting it, the thrill of gambling was an enticing allure. Plus, the privacy of the setting meant she could unwind without fear of public scrutiny.
"Fine," she relented. "But I'm only here for a simple game."
That statement couldn't be further from the truth. This Hokage had a gambling addiction.
The moment she sat down, waitresses appeared, bringing her favourite dishes alongside Shizune's. Her eyes widened in delight at the beautifully plated food.
"How did you know what my favourite food is?" she incredulously asked.
Arthur smiled, leaning back in his chair, and answered, "This is your favourite, too? Haha. Apparently, we have similar tastes. I really ordered this for myself, hoping you two would like it."
"Oh..." Tsunade said, trying to recover some dignity.
He wasn't lying; chicken breast truly was his favourite. In hindsight, he simply knew because he had been monitoring her after she left the Leaf Village.
Since then, she hadn't eaten anything.
Shizune snickered and elbowed Tsunade lightly, who shot her partner an exasperated glare. "Shush."
As the game began, Tsunade couldn't help but ask, "So, Dan, where are you really from? And how did you manage to fund this event?"
