Chapter 23
4 Kings
"ah?!"
Xia Mu blinked.
"I'm telling you, please become the pride of Raven City!"
"But I'm not from Raven City!"
"I know you were taken in by Officer Jenny!"
"But isn't Raven City's pride precisely you?"
"So, I don't want to be one anymore. Although it's fun, it's also very tiring..."
According to Xiaoju'er's explanation.
Xia Mu only found out then.
original.
Since Xiaojuer first made her mark in the modeling world and took over the Raven Dojo, her life has mostly been surrounded by spotlights and fans.
Although Xiaoju also likes this kind of life.
But sometimes...
She couldn't help but feel that the title of "Pride of Raven City" was too heavy a burden on her shoulders.
and so.
She hoped that Natsuki could shoot a promotional video about Raven City.
From Xiaoju's perspective.
Xia Mu is bound to achieve great things in the future.
Once this video is released, as Xia Mu becomes more and more famous, the support of the citizens of Raven City for Xia Mu will naturally increase.
At that time.
Your own aura will dim a bit, and life will be much easier.
Xia Mu nodded.
"So, you want me to make a video about Raven City and become famous, right?!"
Xiao Ju nodded.
"right!"
By this time, she had transformed from a foodie into the "shining beauty" that people were familiar with.
and.
Xiaoju also took out her phone from her handbag.
"I have a friend, you might have heard of her, the Ghost-type Elite Four member, Wandra. As a Ghost-type expert, one of her main weapons is Claydol..."
Xiaoju'er tried to seduce Xiamu in this way.
But Xia Mu fell silent.
She herself always aimed to become a major internet celebrity.
and so.
Increasing one's own visibility is one of the goals.
and.
Leveraging its geographical advantages to attract local residents of Raven City was already part of Xia Mu's plan.
and so.
From the current perspective...
Xiao Ju'er came to the Elf Center specifically to find me, then treated me to food, and then introduced me to business opportunities and connections.
"Hiss~"
Xia Mu gasped.
"You like me too!!"
???
Xiao Ju'er was stunned for a moment, and finally realized what Xia Mu had said.
"Hiss~~"
This time it was her turn to gasp in shock.
For a moment, I didn't know whether to criticize Xia Mu's thought process or be curious about how the word "also" came about.
"No, wait, let me calm down..."
Taking two deep breaths, Xiao Ju'er, now calmer, looked at Xia Mu with a strange expression.
"How did you come to this conclusion?"
But Xia Mu's expression was even stranger.
"Isn't it obvious? You came to the Pokémon Center to find me and bought me something to eat..."
As Xia Mu spoke, Xiao Ju'er became more and more shocked.
My goodness, King Eel!
This behavior either indicates a close relationship or a desire to become close.
If Xiaoju'er hadn't known her own thoughts, these would have been all just outward expressions.
It's like an old tree that has been working diligently for many years finally blossoming and passionately pursuing love in its own way.
"I've seen this plot on TV before..."
Xiao Ju'er thought of the second male lead in a TV series that aired during prime time.
That's how he seduced the female lead.
Now let's put ourselves in that situation properly...
Actually, things aren't what you think!
Xiaoju tried to explain.
And Xia Mu.
"Yes, I know!"
You know nothing!
I can tell from your expression that you don't know!
Little Chrysanthemum was very distressed.
She considered abandoning the proposal.
Actually, it wouldn't be bad to continue being the only source of pride for Raven City.
but.
After seeing Xia Mu's expression, Xiao Ju'er knew.
Once you give up.
The man in front of him would then be even more convinced of his own speculation.
She must have been hit where it hurt, and she panicked!
Thinking about how the story would unfold, Xiaoju felt like she was trapped in a dead end.
At this time.
Xia Mu, however, spoke up to help him out of the predicament.
"But thinking about it carefully, it seems like you, Little Chrysanthemum, didn't even realize this at all~"
"Yeah, that's it! My usual fighting style is swift and direct. This kind of roundabout hinting is totally not my style, hahaha!"
Little Chrysanthemum laughed heartily.
He found Xia Mu increasingly pleasing to the eye.
only.
From the perspective of the electric flying squirrel standing to the side.
You have no idea how you got into this predicament, do you?!
The mouse shook its head, expressing concern about the trainer's mind.
but.
In Xiaoju's opinion
I have already explained that I have no intention of being in a relationship.
Xia Mu also admitted that he had misunderstood him.
His request was also perfectly fulfilled.
Despite some hiccups, today was still a perfect day.
In Xia Mu's view...
I got to eat a free dessert.
I received a new commission.
There has also been progress on the matter of the clay giant.
He even teased Xiaoju'er a bit, and saw her furious expression.
It was another perfect day.
"I'll send you Wanlong's contact information later, you can contact her directly!"
"Thanks!"
Xia Mu's gratitude came from the bottom of her heart.
after all.
Xiao Ju'er did indeed help him.
"Bye-Bye!"
"bye!"
......
After Xiaoju'er left, Xia Mu did not immediately add the dragon.
After all, Wanlong is one of the Four Heavenly Kings, and he also has a side job of writing.
Although he might do his best for the clay giant because of his love for elves.
but.
Xia Mu felt that even though Wanlong had already agreed to Xiaoju'er's request...
When asking someone for a favor, you should at least know how to be polite.
and so.
Considering Wanlong's love of writing novels, Xia Mu decided to give him a gift that suited his taste.
......
In a luxury hotel.
Ding!
Upon seeing the friend request in the chat software, Wanlong immediately thought of the favor her best friend had asked her to do.
"I remember... it seems like we subdued a clay giant that had been sleeping in the ruins for many years?!"
He pushed up his round-framed glasses, and crossed his legs, which were covered in pantyhose.
"They even specifically asked me to go out of my way to take care of them, how interesting!"
A glint of light flashed in his eyes, and the idea for a romance novel had already crossed Wanlong's mind.
"Xia Xiaomu!"
Looking at the friend applicant, Wanlong felt like he had heard the name before.
but.
Without much thought, Wanlong immediately accepted the friend request.
Then.
With black nail polish, her fair and delicate fingers, as white as scallions, quickly tapped on the screen.
"Hello, I am Wanlong. Could you elaborate on your clay giant?"
but.
Before the edited message could be sent, the document sent by the other party immediately caught Wanlong's attention.
"The Domineering Bamboo Orchid Falls in Love with Me!"
As Cynthia's best friend, Wanlong knows that in the past, Cynthia's nickname was Cynthia Bamboo.
but.
This kind of thing was basically only known to those who were very close to Cynthia later on.
"interesting!"
Because I also have a hobby of drawing inspiration from people in the neighborhood.
and so.
Without hesitation, Wanlong clicked on it.
