Chapter 396 396: Scandal (Part 1)
The next day.
At the convenience store.
“Shota, do you think it’s normal for a woman to be willing to help you pursue another one?”
“It’s quite normal. Like when I was pursuing Ranran before, I did it by buying off Ranran’s close friends and having them pass on information to me.” The chubby guy nodded, not thinking much of it.
“Then did any of your girl-friend’s close friends say they wanted to help you level up?”
Renji followed up.
The chubby guy: “?..?”
“What the heck? Level up? Level up what?”
“Like if you’ve never held a girl’s hand before, she’ll let you hold her hand, and if you have no dating experience, she’ll practice dating with you.”
“Pfft! Then if you have no kissing experience later on, will she practice kissing with you too?” Hearing this, the chubby guy couldn’t help but retort.
Then he found that the young man across from him actually fell silent.
“Wait, wait! Bro, you can’t be serious…”
“It’s not me, it’s a friend of mine.”
“Well anyway, from my experience, that girl is definitely not some easy target. She’s most likely a Sneaky Sweetheart!”
How could Yuki be a Sneaky Sweetheart without being an easy target?
She’s indeed helped me a lot…
Last night’s “guidance” experience flashed through his mind. Renji shook his head inwardly. Now there was really no way to return to a normal relationship with Yuki. Since that was the case, he shouldn’t think about Lena anymore. He had no face to say he still liked her.
In the future, he should just settle down and live his life with Yuki?
But… The more Renji thought this way, the more the image of that pink-haired woman kept involuntarily appearing in his mind, lingering and not going away. It even gave birth to the evil thought of “I want both” in his heart, making him really troubled.
On the other hand, seeing that Renji seemed to be in low spirits, Shota took the initiative to change the subject.
“Alright bro, let’s not talk about women anymore.Women are like clothes, and men should focus on their careers… Let’s talk about something serious. Come, take a look at this!”
Shota excitedly handed his phone to Renji to look at. On it was a game video on C-site with nearly a million views. It was the recording of him clearing the Miasma Contract yesterday, edited by the chubby guy.
“I told you bro, with your skills and techniques, you’ll definitely blow up! Look, it’s only been one day and there are already over a million views. It directly shot up to the hot list last night.”
“I originally thought this was already amazing enough, but guess what? There was even a bigger surprise!”
Speaking of the latter part, the chubby guy even started to dance with excitement. He took back his phone, did some simple operations, and showed Renji an interface of “private messages”.
In the private messages, Renji saw a user with the ID “Fallen Chronicles II” leaving several messages for the chubby guy.
The gist was that they were very interested in him and hoped to invite him to visit the company inside the Alliance building. They also hinted in their wording that if the subsequent talks went well, they might have a big business deal to give him.
“Could this be a scammer?” Renji was a bit suspicious. A video with just a million views shouldn’t be enough to make the official side pay so much attention, let alone invite him, right?
“At first glance, I also thought it was a scammer, but bro, do you see the five-pointed star next to this ID? It’s official verification. Clicking into it also leads to the dynamic page of ‘Fallen Chronicles II’. This is definitely the official account. The official side really contacted us directly!”
“What do you say bro? We definitely have to go, right?”
Although the chubby guy was very impatient and couldn’t wait to agree directly, Renji was the main person involved after all. He had to ask for Renji’s opinion first before replying.
As for Renji…
“Mm, let’s go and see.”
The young man nodded. After more and more exercise with Yuki, Renji felt that his amnesia seemed to be gradually healing, whether it was his own psychological effect or something else. More and more images from the depths of his mind began to slowly emerge.
It was precisely because of this that Renji became more certain that he still had some important matters waiting for him, and this matter was related to “Fallen Chronicles”.
“Alright!”
Seeing Renji nod, the chubby guy beamed with joy. Although his fingers were quite thick, his current speed of tapping on the phone was lightning fast. In less than half a minute, he had finished replying to the official account’s private message. First, he expressed very politely that they were very honored, and then he told the official side that they were near the Alliance building and could go over at any time.
“It’s done bro. Tsk tsk, fate is really amazing. Yesterday, we were racking our brains, sneaking into the Alliance like thieves, but today, just one night later, hey! We’ve truly become honored guests invited by the Alliance!”
“You know what bro? I’m especially looking forward to encountering that nasty woman who stopped us yesterday again. I want to know what expression she’ll have on her face when she sees us entering the Alliance so openly and grandly. I bet it’ll definitely be quite a sight! Haha, just imagining that scene already makes me feel great!”
“Of course, if we could meet Director Lena again, that would be simply too blissful! Sigh, bro, do you think the person inviting us could be Director Lena? Ah! My heavens! This plot, even novels wouldn’t dare write it like this! Isn’t it too much like a wish-fulfillment story?”
Customers coming into the convenience store one after another interrupted Shota’s wild imaginations.
Who knows what was going on today, the customer flow seemed unexpectedly high. Even the chubby guy couldn’t slack off and had to get busy at the counter.
If it was simply just more customers, it would be fine, but Shota and Renji quickly noticed some abnormalities.
Some customers would always intentionally or unintentionally glance in Renji’s direction. A small portion even stared straight at Renji when checking out.
This had actually happened before. After all, Renji was indeed considered young and handsome man, attracting some young girls. This was also why the convenience store owner was willing to hire Renji.
But today was clearly different from before. There were quite a few more people wearing employee uniforms, and they all seemed to come in groups of three or five, as if they had specifically come to take a look at Renji, accompanied by whispers.
“Quick, look, it should be him, right?”
“He is indeed quite handsome…”
“Handsome is handsome, but a convenience store clerk, it feels a bit…”
“What if he’s here to experience life at the bottom?”
“If I had money, I’d also find someone like this!”
Renji didn’t pay much attention to these and still worked diligently, but the chubby guy’s personality was very curious. He finally couldn’t hold back and found a girl from the building who came alone, bribing her with a bottle of milk tea.
And Shota was shocked by what he learned.
“Huh? You don’t know yet? Your young and handsome colleague is dating our Director Lena!”
Shota: “…”
“Who?” The chubby guy suspected he had heard wrong.
“Director Lena, have you played Fallen Chronicles II? The chief designer of the Alliance, Lena.”
