Chapter 123: Didn’t Forget Work on a Date

Chen Lu’s attempt to kiss her in public was decisively rejected, leaving him with no choice but to give up.

He thought to himself, “I’ll hold you down and kiss you unconscious one day.”

After a long while.

Liang Zhirou’s fishing plan proved successful. After receiving the photo, they quickly found Lin Miaomiao, who was standing in front of a booth, laughing hysterically.

In front of her were two chairs, one guy cosplaying Eren and the other cosplaying Reiner, sitting opposite each other. They even brought a speaker.

Chen Lu couldn’t help but laugh.

Liang Zhirou put her index finger to her lips, signaling him to be quiet. Then she quietly walked over and poked Lin Miaomiao’s waist with her finger.

Lin Miaomiao was startled and turned her head, her mouth opening wider.

She rubbed her eyes several times before she could believe she wasn’t mistaken. “How did you two get here?”

“We came to see you,” Liang Zhirou whispered.

While the two were chatting, Chen Lu continued to scan the surrounding passersby. He suddenly realized that he could recognize many of the characters.

Lin Miaomiao looked at them with suspicion. “You two aren’t here to feed me dog food, are you?”

It was too much. She was forced to eat dog food all the time, and now she’s come all this way and still has to be chased and fed?

It was just… it was just… forget it, she wouldn’t complain.

“It’s summer, you’re dressed so warmly,” Chen Lu said suddenly.

“I’m here to play, not for others to look at.”

Although Chen Lu’s words didn’t mean anything, Lin Miaomiao, as an experienced driver, subconsciously misinterpreted them.

Lin Miaomiao leaned closer and whispered to the two, “Those who dress revealingly don’t necessarily really like anime. They just like the feeling of being chased and watched. They might not even know which anime their cosplay character is from…”

“So you’re doing it for the love?”

“Yeah, it’s pretty accurate, right?” Lin Miaomiao handed the knife in her hand to Liang Zhirou and spun around happily.

“Not bad.” Chen Lu nodded. “I approve of your level of dedication.”

He looked around again and continued to ask, “Where’s Chen Mo?”

“She came to take a look around and then went back to sleep,” Lin Miaomiao yawned widely, looking somewhat tired.

Liang Zhirou stepped forward and looked closely at her dark circles, her face filled with worry.

“Didn’t you sleep well last night?”

“Don’t even mention it. I promised Chen Mo that we’d sleep after winning once last night, and then everything went wrong after I said that,” Lin Miaomiao held up four fingers. “We ended up playing until four in the morning before winning the first game.”

Liang Zhirou tilted her head, suddenly feeling that her worry was a bit unnecessary.

“Zhirou, look, I told you before and you didn’t believe me, coming out to hang out is so much fun,” Lin Miaomiao said with a smile.

Someone finally pulled this silly girl out of her self-imposed isolation. It has to be said that Chen Lu was indeed better at it than her.

Maybe this is the change that love brings to people. There are some things that friendship can’t do.

After Lin Miaomiao went back to catch up on her sleep, Chen Lu and Liang Zhirou continued to wander around the convention for a long time. This silly girl kept looking around, full of endless curiosity.

Chen Lu looked at the various food stalls set up by people in cosplay costumes for fun. Seeing the crowded scene, he suddenly got an idea and said to the girl, “I’ll make a call.”

The prompt tone only rang twice before it was answered.

“Hey, Peng Leyun, what are you doing?”

“Working overtime.” Peng Leyun said listlessly, the art team had even finished their work and were slacking off, while their programming team was still busy with various bugs.

He now felt like jumping off a building whenever he saw an error message.

“What kind of boss is so heartless.” Chen Lu reprimanded sternly.

“Hehe.”

Chen Lu didn’t continue joking, “Bring those two extra phones from the studio here, I want to set up a trial event.”

There were a lot of anime fans here, those holding cameras might be big or small up-lords, but they were all free publicity.

It was a shame not to take advantage of the heat.

Just past noon, Peng Leyun took a taxi to the location, not only bringing several phones, but also brought a banner according to Chen Lu’s request.

“Brother Lu, I’m here.” Peng Leyun said, panting.

Then he noticed Liang Zhirou standing beside Chen Lu, and then shouted loudly in public, “Sister-in-law!”

The voice was so loud that everyone around looked over involuntarily.

Liang Zhirou first nodded blankly, and two seconds later she reacted, her face, already flushed with heat, instantly turned crimson, “Don’t call me that!”

“Brother Lu, can we do this here?” Peng Leyun casually wiped the sweat off his face and asked curiously.

Chen Lu nodded slightly, “I just asked the person in charge, it’s okay. It’s just that we didn’t apply in advance, so there’s no specific venue for us.”

Peng Leyun waved his hand indifferently, “I don’t think we need that.”

He then directly stuck the banner to the wall in front of him, which read: “The game that will change the domestic game market! The rising star of the game industry! Domestic card roguelike free trial!”

Chen Lu’s eyebrows jumped when he saw it, he just told Peng Leyun to get a promotional banner, but he didn’t expect him to do this.

He and Liang Zhirou were both embarrassed to stand there.

But the herd effect was significant, at first only a few interested people came, but later there was already a long queue.

These were not Chen Lu’s goals, when he saw many people filming videos also coming over, he secretly curled up the corners of his mouth.

This is your material, you are my free advertising, win-win.

Evening.

After the two sent Peng Leyun off in a taxi, Liang Zhirou wiped the sweat off Chen Lu’s cheek with a tissue and asked softly, “Did we succeed a little bit today?”

“Did you have fun?”

“Fun.” Liang Zhirou replied seriously, whether it was walking around with Chen Lu in the morning, or watching Chen Lu cheat and promote the game in the afternoon, she had a great time.

Chen Lu smiled at her, “Then that’s it, next time we’ll go to another place, there’s still a long time to come.”

The girl nodded lightly and leaned closer to Chen Lu.

“Touched?” he asked again.

“You want to kiss me.” Liang Zhirou hummed with a smile, revealing a knowing look. She also felt that she had become a little smarter after being tricked too many times.

Going on like this, wouldn’t it be only a matter of time before she could control Chen Lu? She also wanted to bully Chen Lu properly.

Chen Lu chuckled, “If you have the guts, don’t get in the car later.”

Liang Zhirou was stunned, she only now realized why Chen Lu specifically sent Peng Leyun to the taxi.

Is calling the police useful? Urgent, online waiting.
