Chapter 115 To Talk Things Out
Upon hearing the employees’ compliments, Zheng Xiaoguang felt somewhat awkward. She did this just because she wanted her man to have lunch on time.
Bluegreen-Clad finished his work and took Zheng Xiaoguang and his mother to a restaurant nearby. It was a western restaurant and served food very quickly. After the lunch, when Zheng Xiaoguang thought that Bluegreen-Clad would have to go back to work, he said that he would go home together with her.
“Aren’t you very busy now?” She asked confusedly.
Bluegreen-Clad patted her head and said, “I’ve finished my parts. I can spend some quality time with you this afternoon.”
As such, they went back home together. Bluegreen-Clad’s mother insisted on giving them some time to stay together and left. After her departure, there were only Bluegreen-Clad and Zheng Xiaoguang in the house.
When Zheng Xiaoguang, who had many questions to ask Bluegreen-Clad, was about to speak, Bluegreen-Clad suddenly lifted her up and spun around.
Zheng Xiaoguang was surprised and hugged him tightly. She heard him chuckle and speak beside her ear. “Congratulations, you’ve passed the test, my future Mrs. Lu.”
Zheng Xiaoguang was not sure whether he was talking about his parents’ approval or what she had done in his company. When he finally put her down, she glared at him and said, “You’re the game operator of Shiny Sky. Why didn’t you tell me this before?”
“You never asked me.” Bluegreen-Clad looked at her innocently.
Zheng Xiaoguang was rendered speechless, since she could not deny that. She had never cared much about his career before except knowing that he had a small company. Despite that, she still adopted a very aggressive attitude as she asked, “Did you deliberately set me up during that reality show?”
Bluegreen-Clad raised his eyebrows and said, “Not exactly.”
“What do you mean?” Zheng Xiaoguang frowned and found it hard to follow his train of thought.
“We were preparing some campaign to increase players’ consumption back then.” Bluegreen-Clad said flatly. “I just accelerated the progress for you.”
She pouted her lips and said, “What a shrewd businessman.”
In the meantime, she complained secretly, “He managed to set me up while holding a campaign to reap profits. He’s really good at calculating numbers and avoiding losses.”
Bluegreen-Clad leaned over and put his forehead against hers while saying, “Didn’t I tell that you before, silly girl? I’ve been plotting against you since a long time ago.”
He had told her everything when confessing to her. It was he who asked Blooming Pear Tree to marry her off and agree to ally the Matchless with the League of Strong Families. Blooming Pear Tree had admitted it too.
“What about the couple album and the VIP invitation? You arranged that too, didn’t you?” Zheng Xiaoguang stared at Bluegreen-Clad and continued, “I thought that I was lucky as all the staff I met treated me so kindly and even shoot a couple album for me for free. You asked them to do so, didn’t you?”
Bluegreen-Clad smiled and said, “Yes.”
Zheng Xiaoguang twitched her lips and said, “You’re such a scheming guy. I guess that I can never outwit you when we live together.”
Bluegreen-Clad caressed her long hair and said, “I set you up because I care about you, silly girl.”
Zheng Xiaoguang looked down and lost in thought. “Bluegreen-Clad does care about me. He held a party to give me a chance to meet Su Han again and get over him. He prepared presents for me when I came to visit his parents. He even had fashionable cosplay clothes specially made for me. And he lifted me up so excitedly just now…”
She suddenly realized how much Bluegreen-Clad had done for her.
She looked at his face which was close to hers at the moment and took the initiative to kiss him.
Upon noticing that Zheng Xiaoguang felt touched, he lifted her up and made her sit on his lap to deepen the kiss.
They somewhat felt that everything quieted down in the room except the ticking wall clock.
After a long time, when her cheeks became red because of the kiss, he finally released her and let her rest in his arms.
When Zheng Xiaoguang felt that her heart rate slowed down, she said, “No wonder you could find out the mobile phone numbers that Venus used for registration. You own the company. Did you ask someone to delete that thread on official forums that slandered me?”
“Mmm.” Bluegreen-Clad caressed her long hair and said, “Although I’m not omnipotent, I can assure you that no one can bully you in Shiny Sky.”
Upon hearing that, Zheng Xiaoguang thought, “Well, of course, you can do that. You’re the boss. You can do anything in this game world you create.”
She raised her eyebrows and asked, “What about your PK fight against Dogs? Did you cheat?”
In the meantime, she thought grumpily, “Back then, I even got ready to quit the game together with him. Did he secretly laugh at me at that time?”
Bluegreen-Clad seemed to see through her mind. He blinked at her and said, “Just like the real world, a game world has its own rules. Destroying its rules at will will only accelerate its destruction. As Shiny Sky’s operator, I won’t do such a thing.”
He would not cheat or allow anyone else to cheat in the game. He knew that he had to maintain his integrity to help his game maintain its popularity. As such, he had never told anyone in the game who he really was.
Zheng Xiaoguang still had some doubts. “Have you ever taken advantage of your position in the company to do anything for yourself in the game?”
Bluegreen-Clad frowned and said, “Yes, but only once. When you had a miscarriage and could not sleep at night, I was worried about you and thus asked my IT guys to creat a ‘white phoenix pill’ for you.”
“Huh?” Zheng Xiaoguang was surprised to hear that the pill was created for her.
She was moved but still refused to let him off easily. She asked, “Can you have as many gold ingots as you want in Shiny Sky? Do your employees have any discount?”
She paused for a moment and added discontentedly, “Humph, I really didn’t need to worry that you spent too much money on our wedding. You play your own game. How can you lack gold ingots? You probably held that wedding to advertise your colorful divine bird.”
Bluegreen-Clad touched his forehead and said, “I held that wedding because I wanted to marry you, Xiaoguang. I do require my employees to play this game to get to know more about it. Only when they know more about it, they can make it better. No one has any special discount except for game testers. ”
His company never gave employees discounts to prevent them from making profits from reselling their gold ingots.
“What? You don’t give any discount to your employees. You’re indeed a shrewd businessman.” Zheng Xiaoguang said in surprise. “But you require them to play the game. Are you planning to use gold ingots to offset their salaries?
“Are you paying them by sending some gold ingots to their game accounts?”
Bluegreen-Clad wanted to wipe sweats. “Erm, Xiaoguang…”
Before he gave her an explanation, she indignantly said, “You’re indeed a shrew and wicked businessman! I’ve spent so much money on those gold ingots. Give my money back to me~”
She had spent quite a lot of her salaries on Shiny Sky since starting playing the game.
Bluegreen-Clad hugged her tightly with a smile. “Alright, alright, whatever you say is right. I’m a shrew and wicked businessman, but I can’t return your money now. I can only pay you back with myself in my future life.”
