Chapter 206 Young and energetic
"I... of course I don't mind."

Li Xuerou's face was full of seriousness, showing no sign of forcing a smile: "Isn't that normal behavior? After all, I was so close at the time, and we are best friends... We even drank from the same cup of water."

"I thought……"

Upon hearing this, Tang Yao couldn't help but chuckle.

I finally understand what Kaoru meant when she said, "As long as your orientation is normal, who cares?"

Knew it.

She lowered her eyelids to hide the slight sadness in her eyes, then raised her head again and smiled brightly, "You really scared me. I thought you were avoiding me these past few days because of what I did back then..."

"What are you thinking?"

Li Xue secretly breathed a sigh of relief, while rolling her eyes at Tang Yao.

"I was thinking... wait, if you don't mind, then why are you avoiding me?"

Tang Yao wanted to explain.

But she quickly realized something was wrong and looked at Li Xue with some suspicion.

"I thought you minded..."

Li Xue subconsciously looked down at Tang Yao's pert, round buttocks touching the chair surface, and whispered, "When I picked you up, I lifted you up..."

"...I do mind that a little."

Tang Yao noticed her gaze, moved back slightly, blushed slightly, and glared at her, but then changed the subject: "But I've done this before, haven't I? You don't mind, so why do you think I mind? I hugged you, you're not an outsider."

"I thought you would mind... but not anymore."

Upon hearing this, Li Xue was completely relieved and smiled gently.

Fortunately.

Not found.

And... she doesn't mind.

"..."

the other side.

Tang Yao also breathed a sigh of relief.

Well.

Fortunately, nothing serious happened. Li Xue didn't mind her actions; on the contrary, she was worried about causing herself trouble.

This means that all you need to do now is hide your orientation.

Then nothing will happen.

Fortunately.

Forget it.

Anyway, I came into this world with a gender that doesn't match up, and I'm destined to be single. Having a dignified and beautiful older sister friend wouldn't be bad.

Looking at the dignified Li Xue, Tang Yao completely suppressed the unrealistic fantasies deep in her heart and smiled, "So we both felt that the other minded, and then deliberately avoided each other during this time?"

Li Xue instinctively retorted, "I didn't dodge."

"You didn't hide? Then why do I never see you?"

Tang Yao moved her office chair closer to her, cupped her face in her small, fair hands, and tilted her head.

This familiar action...

Li Xue was slightly taken aback, then laughed, letting Tang Yao cup her face, and joked, "I'm afraid you'll kiss me again."

Tang Yao said with amusement, "Didn't you say you didn't mind?"

Upon hearing this, Li Xue reached out and cupped Tang Yao's face: "You said you didn't mind... but you just moved back a little."

"You dare talk back? I'll kiss you!"

"Let's get intimate, it's not certain who'll come out worse off."

Upon hearing this, Li Xue immediately brought her beautiful face close to the glass and closed her eyes.

Tang Yao did give him a kiss, but it was just a light peck.

This time, however, she didn't think about it that much.

Li Xue didn't mind at all; it was just normal playful banter between best friends.

Normally, it would be stranger for someone to stand there with their face flushed.

She's decided to abandon those unrealistic fantasies, so it's better to be 'normal'.

really.

Li Xue didn't mind, but opened her beautiful eyes and glanced at Tang Yao with a faint look: "You really kissed me."

You said you didn't mind.

Tang Yao puffed out her full, proud breasts, speaking with righteous indignation.

Its subtle trembling, its stunning size, and its upright posture are nothing short of a physiological miracle.

"..."

Li Xue looked at Tang Yao, who was as self-righteous as ever, and seemed to laugh in anger.

She released Tang Yao's face, and as she withdrew her hand, she couldn't help but pinch her soft skin in a fit of anger.

Although it was a fleeting moment.

Tang Yao was stunned, seemingly not expecting Li Xue to do anything. She slowly looked down and then her fair face quickly flushed red.

Her face flushed red as she said, "Li Xue!"

Li Xue suddenly stood up, a mischievous glint in her eyes, and ran off: "I'm going to get back at work. This is revenge. You can get back at me next time. By the way, you said you didn't mind."

"Where did I say I didn't mind! You stop right there!"

"..."

Li Xue ran even faster.

So Tang Yao didn't see... the moment Li Xue turned around, her delicate face also turned bright red. The barriers between the two.

In an instant, it seemed to have vanished completely.

The two even became closer.

Well... it seems the misunderstanding hasn't been cleared up yet.

just.

It doesn't matter anymore.

Regardless of what the two people involved think, some affection will always show.

It all depends on who discovers it first.

……

Avalon's two most important members have reconciled.

However, neither the staff at Avalon nor ANF paid any attention to it.

no way.

Crazy busy!
At Avalon, the "Fight Card" project team received news that they were preparing for the public beta test. As Avalon's second game, the entire company began to work together to support it.

This includes marketing and promotional work, preparation of promotional materials for distribution channels, operational work, and other special preparations.

In short, a whole bunch of things.

Even the name of the game needs to be changed, and it hasn't been decided yet.

In this situation, it's really impossible to pay attention to Tang Yao and Li Xue.

ANF ​​fared even worse.

There's the matter of joint operations, the comics, and daily operations... It's like having to split yourself in two to handle everything.

and.

This day was actually not the peak.

the next day.

Some players who progressed quickly have already experienced the FGOX "Nightfall" collaboration storyline.

As for the reviews... they're fantastic!
Whether it's ANF or external forums, the praise is overwhelming!
"It's done! All I can say is! Avalon is awesome! Absolutely awesome! I never expected them to do it so well!"

"This plot! They actually did it this way! Starting from the last chapter of 'Nightfall,' it leads to an entire side story-like crossover plot! It's amazing!"

"It can only be said that there are differences between games..."

"The official adaptation of 'Dark Night' is a joke compared to the FGO collaboration event! Forget about the art, the story is incomparable. I think the FGO collaboration event deserves the title of 'official adaptation' more than that 'Dark Night', especially when the female protagonist in the manga picked up Gilgamesh's Noble Phantasm at the end! I was so excited!"

"Ahhh, please don't spoil it!"

"..."

These praises caused FGO's popularity to soar once again, attracting even more comic artists!
Not just cartoonists! A whole bunch of publishers are seeking collaborations!

Guan Fang even made three phone calls to Li Xue... wanting to collaborate again.

Li Xue's phone hasn't stopped ringing these past two days! She's almost driven to the brink of a nervous breakdown by all the phone calls.

It can be said that it is painful and happy.

And at the same time.

The big companies that Tang Yao mentioned have finally taken notice of ANF.

"The person in charge of this company... is quite interesting."

Chairman of the second largest internet company in China.

Shen Lun, who is also the president of their company's game and interactive entertainment division, looked up and exclaimed in amazement: "They actually managed to combine comic book collaborations, ANF joint operations, and new game promotions in this way to create a synergistic effect... They really made it happen."

next to.

The middle-aged man in a suit nodded: "Yes."

Shen Lun thought for a moment: "Last time I asked you to investigate the background of this Avalon studio. What did you say? Have they shown any intention of making a move?"

"They have no special background, their funds are clean, they started from scratch... As for the investment, I asked them, but they ignored me."

"Oh? You started from scratch?"

Shen Lun raised an eyebrow: "Where's the founder?"

"Um……"

Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man in a suit looked somewhat strange: "It's a girl, a very young girl."

Shen Lun was somewhat surprised: "A girl? Not the sugar daddy behind her?"

"Correct."

The middle-aged man nodded again: "She's not the financial backer. It's said that she's controlled the company since FGO was released."

“It’s even more interesting.”

Shen Lun nodded, though he was still surprised, he didn't show it.

After all, I'm not a young person in my twenties anymore.

He thought for a moment and then asked, "Did you come here this time because the heads of several of our internal mobile game development teams want to co-operate with ANF?"

"Correct."

The middle-aged man responded, then hesitated and said, "You mean..."

"Let's talk about it, but let's discuss it together with the investment."

Shen Lun released the mouse, tapped the desktop lightly with his finger, and pondered for a moment: "Let's see what their requirements are. As long as the requirements are not excessive and they are willing to accept us, I'm happy to give the young man a chance."

"Of course, that is, if... they can seize this opportunity."

"If they are young and ambitious, and become arrogant and disdainful of everyone after one success, they will be overconfident and think they are above everyone else."

"Then there's no need to discuss it."
