Chapter 87 - Why Are You Here Too?
Chapter 87 - Why Are You Here Too?
Jiang Linyue was a bit worried now.
With the end of the award ceremony, she returned to Kaiyang City.
She threw herself onto the soft, large bed, and the two jelly-like slimes swayed.
She stared at the luxurious ceiling with some anxiety about personal gains and losses.
With Ye Mo's growing fame, plus the advertisement for the SSS-Rank Class Card he had Ye Xiaoxiao make before…
Undoubtedly, a large number of players would come to him with high offers.
They all say that men's hearts change when they get rich.
That guy…
Would he not let her touch him later on?
The transaction between them was only verbal. No agreement was signed.
At that time, if he didn't cooperate with her mission, then she would be really done for.
As the Saintess of the Six Saint Sanctuaries, and in a society governed by law…
Using force was naturally possible, but it would be troublesome if she were sued.
Moreover, Jiang Linyue still understood the principle of one full meal versus a meal every day.
"If I had known earlier, then I would have signed a deed of sale with him."
She twisted her delicate body and lay on the bed while taking out her phone.
The peaks in front of her were squeezed into a bottomless abyss.
"I should just make it clear to him."
Thinking of this, she began to edit a text.
Jiang Linyue: Want to watch a movie together tonight?
After typing, she thought for a moment and continued to edit.
Jiang Linyue: 10000 (Transfer).
On the other side.
Mo Xiao Office.
After sending Liu Muxiao away, many more people came to the office for interviews.
But the conditions they gave didn’t meet Ye Mo's psychological expectations at all.
During this period, some other children of aristocratic families had also sought him out, but they all had high-and-mighty attitudes.
And the prices they offered were far below Liu Muxiao's.
Ye Mo, who had seen big fish and meat, resolutely refused.
"Ding-dong! 10000 Yuan received in Q-Chat."
Hmm?
'Jiang Linyue sent me money again?'
He happily clicked open his phone and opened Q-Chat.
Now, whenever Ye Mo heard the sound of a large amount of money being transferred, the first person he thought of was Jiang Linyue.
Soon, he saw the messages sent to him by the latter and Ye Xiaoxiao.
Ye Xiaoxiao: Want to watch a movie tonight? I'm happy today, so consider it my treat.
Jiang Linyue: Want to watch a movie together tonight?
Looking at the two messages on his phone, Ye Mo suddenly remembered something.
Meng Li seemed to want to watch a movie too.
Since they all wanted to watch one, they should all just go together.
Anyway, they were all in the same dormitory. It could promote friendship.
So, he replied to the two girls.
Ye Mo: My treat, let's go tonight!
After replying, he created a group chat and pulled all three girls in.
The group name was: United and Loving Little Family.
On the other side.
Ye Xiaoxiao, still in Skyforge City, soon received Ye Mo's message.
After winning the championship, it wasn't just about that trophy.
She also had to deal with interviews from various media and the formalities.
As for the prize for winning the competition, it was a main material for crafting a Legend-grade piece of equipment.
It would be automatically sent to the academy within seven days, then transferred to her by her homeroom teacher, Zhou Minjun.
"Old Mo agreed? But… what's with this group he created?"
Returning to the hotel, Ye Xiaoxiao glanced at the message sent by Ye Mo.
"Forget it, who cares?"
She thought so, then turned off her phone.
She didn't know why, but Meng Li's words on the competition field suddenly echoed in her mind.
"I don't want to lose… Especially in front of him, I don't want to lose to you…"
Thinking of this, Ye Xiaoxiao inexplicably felt a sense of urgency.
"I can't just do nothing like this anymore."
She gritted her teeth, and a bold idea suddenly popped into her head, her pretty face flushing red.
After hesitating for a moment, she opened her phone again and checked the nearby cinemas in Skyforge City.
She still had an interview to attend tomorrow, so she had to stay here for another night.
As for the movie, it would naturally be watched here.
She scrolled through the map and soon locked onto a relatively remote cinema.
After checking the few remaining hotels nearby, she made a consultation call.
"Hello? Is this the xx Hotel? I might need to book a room tonight. Yes, a large bedroom. When the time comes, just say that's the only one left."
Saying that, Ye Xiaoxiao reported her and Ye Mo's ID numbers as well as their names.
The young lady at the front desk who answered the phone didn't seem like it was her first time encountering this kind of thing, and instantly understood.
With a ‘swish swish swish’, she noted down the names of the two.
Shoo shoo shoo~ Shoo shoo~
Time slowly passed.
Soon, it was evening.
United Mall.
This was a mall invested in by the United Merchant Guild.
It was also a national chain in Great Xia.
It was similar to Wanda* in Ye Mo's previous life.
But the United Merchant Guild wasn’t a single consortium.
It was an organization jointly founded by many aristocratic families.
In the primitive era…
At that time, the system hadn’t yet descended.
When this world hadn't yet seen the Six Saint Sanctuaries and the numerous evil god believers…
It was this United Merchant Guild that held absolute power.
Their tentacles even penetrated the governments of various countries, controlling the financial lifelines of many nations.
But ever since the system descended and various large and small gods’ beliefs appeared…
The whole world's pattern changed.
In the struggle among many beliefs, the power and influence of six specific gods became undoubtedly the most widespread and the most powerful.
This was how the Six Saint Sanctuaries of today came to be.
As such, the relationship between the United Merchant Guild and the Six Saint Sanctuaries was very subtle.
It was similar to the succession of old and new orders.
If one were to talk about the biggest influence now, it would naturally be the Six Saint Sanctuaries.
But the power of the United Merchant Guild was also not to be underestimated.
After many years of struggle and conflict, the two had now become partners.
"Isn't that guy Old Mo here yet?"
Ye Xiaoxiao looked at the time on her phone.
Her outfit today was very pure and refined.
It was a slim-fit waist-clinging dress that extended to the root of her thighs, outlining her graceful and slender figure.
Her long, fair, tender, and beautiful legs were exposed in the air, paired with a pair of small leather boots.
She appeared quiet and cold…
Like a white lotus blooming in a crowd, very eye-catching and dazzling.
She attracted the gazes of many guys around her.
"We're just watching a movie. Why run to such a remote mall? Isn't the nearby one more convenient?"
Ye Mo got out of the taxi and glanced at Ye Xiaoxiao with some complaint.
Kaiyang City wasn’t very far from Skyforge City. It only took about half an hour by car.
But the place Ye Xiaoxiao chose was relatively remote, which was why he was a little late.
'Yo~'
'My sister’s dressed quite decently today.'
'Sure enough, after becoming a celebrity, this girl also started to pay attention to her clothes.'
He naturally noticed that Ye Xiaoxiao's outfit today was very different from usual.
"Didn't I just win the championship? It's easy to be recognized if it's nearby."
She had long prepared an excuse.
"Let's go, let's pick the tickets quickly. If we're any later, there won't be any good seats left."
Ye Xiaoxiao took the opportunity to hold Ye Mo's arm and pull him towards the mall.
"Wait a minute, not everyone is here yet."
Ye Mo paused in place and suddenly said this.
?
Ye Xiaoxiao was dumbfounded.
A big question mark popped up above her head.
What did he mean that not everyone was here?
"Mr. Agent... Over here, over here!"
Soon, a soft and sweet voice came from not far away.
A petite figure wearing a cat-eared hoodie squeezed out from the crowd and happily trotted towards their side.
As the distance closed, Meng Li also saw Ye Xiaoxiao on the side.
The brilliant smile on her small face instantly froze.
“"Y-y-why are you here too?!"”
The two girls spoke in unison, baring their teeth and glaring at each other.

T/N - The MC willing created a bloody battlefield this time. Jiang Linyue isn’t even there yet too. I really can’t understand how someone can be so dense.
E/N: Same. I wonder how can someone be this dense. I mean, one of these girls he did unspeakable things to.
