Ch 612: Save Some Face For His Dad
Yu Jingmo was still considering whether it was appropriate, and didn’t notice that the sound was a little off; she subconsciously started to speak.
However, she was thinking about this matter, always maintaining a degree of vigilance, and stopped 0.1 seconds before her words came out.
Then she finally realized that the voice just now was low and magnetic, completely different from Lin Qingchuan’s somewhat clear voice.
She abruptly turned her head, and saw Lin Hui standing not far away, tall and straight in a suit.
Seeing her look over, he raised his eyebrows.
Yu Jingmo understood his meaning almost instantly; he was waiting for her reply.
“It’s been a long time… I’m not single.”
She considered her words, saying something that fit the context but wasn’t too “over the top.”
Then she immediately changed the subject: “Why are you back now? Weren’t you supposed to be back tomorrow?”
Lin Hui had been calling constantly during his two-day business trip, and had only said yesterday that he might return tonight or tomorrow.
As a result, not long after lunch, he appeared directly at home.
Lin Hui neither confirmed nor denied Yu Jingmo’s previous answer, and it was impossible to tell if he believed her or not.
He walked over and sat beside Yu Jingmo, looking at the two of them. “What are you talking about? Can I join?”
Yu Jingmo considered the previous matter to be over, so she looked at Lin Qingchuan.
As long as they didn’t bring up that question again, she had nothing to fear!
Lin Qingchuan said calmly, “It’s mainly about monitoring the online situation. I just saw Aifei released the promotion for the new map.”
He didn’t continue the previous topic, firstly because it was still a little difficult to speak about, and secondly to give his father some face.
Although Yu Jingmo seemed to have suddenly changed her tune just now, Lin Qingchuan still felt that she would usually speak her mind…
Lin Hui’s expression didn’t change, he didn’t press further, and casually opened his phone.
Yu Jingmo also glanced at it, somewhat surprised, “《Banlv》’s new map?”
She didn’t even need to search on Weibo; she saw the related topic directly on the hot search.
She thought it would take a while, because Zhang Fei had said during their previous conversation that some things needed to be adjusted.
However, if not much needed to be changed, it wouldn’t take much time.
Just as she finished this guess, a message from Zhang Fei arrived.
『Zhang Fei: Teacher Yu, Banlv’s new map has been officially announced! It will go online after the game update tomorrow. You can interact with it if you have time! 』
『Zhang Fei: I subtly leveraged Teacher Yu’s popularity (shy)』
Yu Jingmo understood; 《Banlv》’s popularity should be even higher than hers, there was no need for her to leverage it.
『Thank you, Boss Zhang, I’ll treat you to a meal next time!』
Zhang Fei was a little embarrassed when he saw this message.
Although he did indeed help divert the netizens’ attention, he had indeed subtly leveraged Yu Jingmo’s popularity.
Although her number of fans is not much compared to Banlv’s official account, her fans are much more active than others’, and because of the identity speculation this time, her popularity is actually not low.
After ending the chat with Zhang Fei, Yu Jingmo reopened Banlv’s newly released Weibo post and liked and reposted it.
In a short while, the data of this Weibo post skyrocketed.
『I don’t usually play Banlv, but the Landlady both draws and models, I have to take a look!』
『Finally here! I hope it won’t disappoint me.』
『Is this the Big Shot who designed the new map!』
『I’ll take a look at the result before deciding whether to praise or scold.』
『I’m waiting for the crash and burn.』
…
The comment section had all sorts of things, praise, satire, neutrality; Yu Jingmo read them with an unchanging expression and even relish.
On the other hand, Lin Hui and Lin Qingchuan across from her gradually showed very similar expressions— icily cold.
Yu Jingmo looked up to see this scene, was silent for two seconds, put down her phone, and asked Lin Hui: “Where are the clothes you bought me?”
The temperature that had just reached the South Pole hastily rushed back.
