Chapter 187 Disdain
"..."

Li Xue thought Tang Yao's words made sense.

but.

She was still a little confused and asked curiously, "They should... know the quality of their game, right? Why are they so confident?"

"Because mobile games are still a blue ocean market, players haven't been badly beaten yet, and at the same time, the other party has a deep understanding of the other side of gacha mobile games."

Tang Yao explained, "Experience from the PC game era tells us that as long as you can lure players in, someone will always make money, even if the game quality is poor."

you do not say.

When mobile games first became popular in my previous life, countless mobile game companies that only wanted to make a quick buck sprang up like mushrooms after rain.

Moreover, the recharge systems of online games, especially mobile games, often carry a gambling element to some extent.

Isn't that what gacha pricing is all about?
"..."

Upon hearing this, Li Xue frowned slightly: "So this is really just a game?"

"Perhaps they think they are."

Tang Yao gently shook her head, not continuing the topic: "Do you want a drink?"

Li Xue was a little confused: "Huh?"

"water."

Tang Yao tilted her head: "Why are you touching the rim of the cup? Is my lipstick on it? No, I didn't put on any lipstick."

"..."

Li Xue glanced down at it, then handed the cup back with a slightly embarrassed look: "I won't drink it."

Tang Yao reached out and took the cup, just as she raised it to drink.

"and many more."

But when Li Xue saw her actions, she seemed to have thought of something. She stood up halfway, reached out and pulled a piece of paper from the table, and then carefully wiped the rim of the cup.

"?"

Seeing this, Tang Yao slowly typed a question mark, then looked at the blushing Li Xue: "What are you doing?"

Li Xue explained, "Didn't you say I was just touching the rim of the cup?"

"..."

Tang Yao slowly put down her cup: "You didn't go to the bathroom just now, did you?"

"No, and besides, don't I wash my hands?!"

Li Xue was taken aback by his words, then said with a wry smile, "What are you thinking?"

Tang Yao countered, "Then what are you wiping?"

Looking at the beautiful and charming girl in front of her, Li Xue remained silent for a moment before whispering, "I was just afraid you'd dislike me..."

"..."

Tang Yao was taken aback, then suddenly asked, "Where are the cookies on your table?"

"biscuit?"

Li Xue was a little confused, but she still turned around and took it.

"I don't want it, you have one."

Tang Yao gestured for her to eat.

Li Xue found it a little strange, but she still picked up a piece and ate it.

"stop."

Tang Yao suddenly raised her hand to stop Li Xue from continuing to eat, and then said, "Give it to me."

"...?"

Li Xue was even more puzzled, but she still subconsciously handed over the half-eaten cookie.

Tang Yao opened her mouth to take it, then puffed out her cheeks slightly and mumbled, "So why didn't you wipe the cookie?"

"..."

Li Xue was stunned for a moment, then looked at Tang Yao, whose cheeks were bulging like a squirrel's, and understood what she meant. She smiled with her glossy red lips pursed.

It was exceptionally bright and beautiful.

"I'm just asking a question. How could I possibly complain? It's because I'm lazy. We've been sharing the same cup for so long."

Tang Yao took a sip of tea and continued, "To put it bluntly, we've been indirectly kissing for over two months now... Well, I guess that's what you call best friends?"

"Ah."

Looking at Tang Yao, who was smiling gently and didn't seem to mind at all, and who spoke her mind frankly, Li Xue responded softly, feeling inexplicably happy.

"but."

at this time.

Tang Yao suddenly changed the subject, put down her cup, looked at the rim, and teased, "Miss Li, I think you should change your lipstick. Every time I see the faint lipstick marks you leave when I drink water, I feel like a lecher..."

"..."

Li Xue froze, as if some of her secret thoughts had been exposed, and said with a blush, "Really? No, I don't think so?"

"How not."

Seeing that she wouldn't admit it, Tang Yao subconsciously moved her chair closer to her, and then reached out her finger... and gently pressed her soft, moist red lips.

Li Xue was slightly taken aback, her delicate body tensing as she looked at Tang Yao.

Tang Yao, however, was full of curiosity. She simply wanted to test whether her lipstick really did fade easily; she hadn't thought much more about it. She noticed this.

Li Xue blinked, slowly relaxed, and then stuck out her pink little tongue to gently lick Tang Yao's fingertip.

A cool sensation came through.

Tang Yao's body stiffened abruptly, and she withdrew her hand as if electrocuted, looking at Li Xue with a somewhat bewildered expression: "What are you doing?"

"Didn't you want to see if the color would fade?"

Li Xue blinked her beautiful eyes.

Tang Yao's pretty face flushed slightly, and her eyes darted away. At this moment, she didn't care about whether the color would fade or not.

No.

Can it still be like this?

Seeing Tang Yao like this, Li Xue realized that her actions had been too direct, and her gaze began to wander as well, her ears turning slightly red.

Both of them were speechless with embarrassment.

"...Isn't this a drawing of Chainsaw Man?"

After a while.

Li Xue felt that things couldn't go on like this, so she started looking around for something to change the subject. She quickly noticed the comic on Tang Yao's screen, realized it wasn't about Chainsaw Man, and asked her about it.

"Oh, I'll draw a short story."

Tang Yao turned around, feigning composure, and faced the screen again, replying with a single sentence.

However, under the table, her long, shapely legs remained taut.

"Short story?"

Li Xue leaned closer to her: "After the Chainsaw Man update next week, are you still going to update short stories?"

Tang Yao nodded: "Mm..."

"Aren't you afraid that readers will criticize you for not doing your job properly... No, you're drawing way too fast."

Whether she was genuinely drawn to the comics or simply wanted to change the subject, Li Xue continued, "Why did you suddenly want to draw short stories?"

"It's mainly about changing my mood. As for the readers, Chainsaw Man is still updating this week."

Tang Yao gradually relaxed, looked at Li Xue's beautiful profile, and replied.

"So what's this short story about?"

Li Xue asked curiously.

Tang Yao thought for a moment: "Do you still remember 'The Human Head Balloon'?"

Li Xue suddenly turned to the side: "..."

"It's the same type as the 'shoulders balloon,' but... this time the trajectory will be a little different."

Seeing her older sister's still-frightened expression, Tang Yao couldn't help but chuckle: "Don't worry, it's not horror. You'll see when you watch it later."

"What's the name of that comic?"

Upon hearing this, Li Xue gently patted her full breasts and breathed a sigh of relief.

She thought Tang Yao was going to draw another comic like "Human Head Balloon".

This is Tang Yao's debut work.

That work left a very deep impression on Li Xue... it's just that the impression wasn't very good.

"..."

Tang Yao noticed Li Xue's movements and, looking at her soft, trembling figure, suddenly felt a strong urge to hug her.

But soon.

She snapped out of her reverie, banished the strange thoughts from her mind, and replied, "It's called... a long farewell."

……

The fourteenth of the first lunar month.

The last day of the New Year.

Chainsaw Man episodes 27 and 28 are now available.

Although the FGO collaboration event has been trending on the site recently due to the leak of the FGO collaboration comic, this does not mean that the Chainsaw Man comic is no longer receiving attention.

In fact.

Since the release of the two chapters last week, this comic has been generating a lot of discussion.

Denji was cut in half at the waist, Himeno died, Hayakawa Aki was seriously injured, and Makima was resurrected.

It's full of exciting moments.

Readers are all discussing what exactly happened and are eagerly anticipating this week's update.

and so.

Two episodes were just released this week.

The readers immediately clicked on it.

As for the fact that the third-rate teacher released a short story this week in addition to the regular updates, no one has noticed yet...

Among the many people who clicked on it was Guan Fang, Rumi's mother.
