Chapter 571: Innocent Boy and Girl

“Spokesperson?”

“Yup,” Xu Xin quickly said. “It’s for a sports brand, but it’s not with your real body. Instead, they just want the naming rights for one of your weapons.”

“Weapon?”

Happy was even more puzzled.

“For example, a sword. They intend to promote a new item, and as long as you can bring out a few more battle replays so that this weapon can appear more...”

“What nonsense is that? I’m ignoring it.”

Happy might have been shocked by someone asking him to be a spokesperson, but his savings account saw a deposit in the hundred million every month, so he had long since become immune to the words “a hundred million”. They soon lost their novelty.

“But aren’t you going to consider it a little more, since this is a brand promoted by the official developers?” Xu Xin asked tentatively.

“The official developers?”

It was only when Xu Xin reminded Happy of that fact that he remembered that the official developers had indeed used the influence of World of Martial Arts to expand their influence in other industries. They had also obtained quite a decent success with it. One of them was a sports shirt, and the results from it were pretty good.

A thought bloomed in Happy’s head, and he said, “If it’s from the official developers, I’m okay with it. I’ll agree to it, but they have to think of the name themselves. They should know me very well.”

“That’s great. I’ll contact them when I get back.”

It was because Xu Xin understood just how beneficial it would be for Happy if he worked together with the official developers that she had reminded him of the fact, or else, if it were a normal brand, she would not have paid much attention to it. When Happy agreed to it, she was instantly overjoyed, and the only thing missing was her immediately making a phone call.

“Girl, were you snickering just now because of this?”

“Of course not.”

“Then why were you snickering?”

“I wasn’t.” Xu Xin blushed and focused on cutting vegetables.

Happy thought about it and made a general guess. “Alright, judging by how you’re reacting, I’m guessing that those girls from your dorm have been talking about something with you again, weren’t they? It’s actually fine. We’re not strangers.

“Don’t they like Weibo a lot and want to come here for a visit? Sure. Tomorrow, ask them over for lunch. I’ve been occupying you for a long time, and I can’t make you isolated from the world.”

“Really?”

Xu Xin might have told her sisters that they were not allowed to visit, but there was no woman who did not want others to see how happy she was. Soon though, she realized something, crossed her arms over her chest, and glared at Happy in a charming manner.

“Wait, what do you mean by you’ve been occupying me for a long time? Don’t spew nonsense when they come. They’re all loudmouths.”

Happy decided to use his trump card. “Then are you going to call them over or not?”

Xu Xin looked at the ceiling and thought about it in an adorable manner for a while before she nodded after giving up.

“But don’t make them misunderstand. Just let them know that I’m working for you and it’ll be enough.”

“Working for me?” This time, it was Happy who glared at Xu Xin, and she lowered her head and ate her food in a guilty manner.

“I was just worried that their imagination would run wild.”

Happy smiled, and he suddenly had an urge to tease Xu Xin. He smiled wickedly and said, “Run wild in what manner?”

“I’m just worried that they’ll announce that we’re cohabiting...”

Midway through her words, Xu Xin’s face turned completely red. Unable to look Happy in the eye, she mumbled, “Ah, fine. I’m not going to ask them over.”

She decided to back out.

At that moment, she heard Happy say something that could stir up the deaf. “Tell them to come over. If they say we’re cohabiting, then we’re cohabiting. Why are you worried? You’ve been taking care of me for so long, are you still thinking about marrying someone else?”

“You...” Xu Xin stared at Happy in shock and embarrassment.

Happy looked back at her without backing down. “I’ve told you that before. Don’t tell me that you haven’t prepared yourself mentally even after so much time has passed?”

Xu Xin said nothing. Since she had to face the shamelessness of someone who had lived two lives, she instantly lost.

She felt that Happy’s confession had come in an incredibly abrupt manner, and she was caught off guard. She screamed in her heart that it was not how movies went, and that Happy had been quiet for so long, so why did he suddenly say such words out of the blue?!

When Happy saw that Xu Xin was at a loss and that her face had turned completely red, including her ears, he suddenly remembered the pain from his previous life and chuckled.

“Alright, I was joking with you. Look at you, you’re so scared. Eat up.”

“Okay.”

Xu Xin could keenly notice the change in Happy’s emotions, but it only lasted for a second before all his actions turned natural and calm again. Yet there was a wicked smile on his lips, causing her to be unable to tell whether what he had said earlier was real or not, and whether the sorrow that vanished in a second was real or just a figment of her imagination.

She felt that her heart became empty though...

It was as if the distance between them had widened from the infinitesimally close one that they had shared a moment earlier. It was a distance that she could practically touch but could not sense, even though the warmth from her ears had not vanished completely.

She dug at her food in boredom until Happy cleaned up and finished resting.

Even though the amount they spoke to each other never diminished, there was something dreary about them.

When Xu Xin cleaned up the kitchen, she walked past the living room in a dejected manner and saw Happy sitting on the couch while staring out the window. He looked very absent-minded, and she could not help but stop.

“Happy.”

There was a moment of silence.

Happy turned his head around, and clarity returned to his eyes. “What?”

“You promised me. I’ll bring them over for lunch tomorrow, but you’re not allowed to put on airs and pretend to be a boss. Also, I’m bringing another friend over.”

“Boy or girl?” Happy asked reflexively.

Happy immediately regretted it once he asked that question. When he saw that Xu Xin was in high spirits, and her eyes instantly much livelier, he felt relieved as well. He noticed that he had been overthinking things.

“Alright, do as you please. Who is that person though?”

Even though he did not want to interfere with the matter, since the person could enter the place, it meant that their relationship with Xu Xin was pretty good, but he did not seem to have heard about it before, which was why he was a little curious.

“Xu Yao.”

When Happy heard Xu Xin say the name, a violent layer of ripples appeared in his originally calm heart.

“Her?” Happy scowled, and a hint of wariness flashed in his heart.

“What’s wrong?” Xu Xin was a little curious about Happy’s reaction, so she explained herself. “Big Sis Xu Yao is currently helping Thunderous Battle in managing Mu Clan, and since Big Brother Thunder mentioned that he’s working for you, Big Sis Xu Yao is naturally working for you as well. There is no boss in the world who will put on that sort of expression when he hears that his employee is coming over, you know?”

“That’s not what I mean.” Happy quickly noticed that his reaction was a little too abnormal, and he calmed himself. “You know that Xu Yao is a little neurotic. She kept bothering me about interviewing me in the past, so why did you suddenly think about bringing her here?”

“It’s because of you, you know? She’s currently working for you, so don’t you think that you should resolve the misunderstanding between you two?” Xu Xin sounded very reasonable.

“Alright.”

Happy knew that if he rejected her again, he would be acting in a very abnormal manner. He sighed and agreed to Xu Xin’s request. But he did not forget to give her a reminder. “When you come over tomorrow at noon, just put the dishes into the microwave. I have to do a quest, so I won’t be able to eat on time.”

“Got it.”

Xu Xin was very used to that, so she nodded and left while shutting the door in a pleased manner.
