Collapse? No, this is just everyday life.

1. TO THE MOON

2. Eientei

3. Alahato α

......'

Go to the Moon still left the second place by a huge margin, with the final data showing a difference of more than ten times. Bronya's Alahato, on the other hand, probably because it belongs to the same Gensokyo company as Go to the Moon, gained some attention and jumped to third place.

"So, have you given up?"

Upon arriving at Bronya's home, Nangong Yu smiled and asked Bronya a question.

However, even though she had already started packing with Seele's help, she still stubbornly replied, "This is just the last bit of hype. After all, your game is story-driven. What if people don't plan to buy tickets after watching it?"

That makes sense. As a game that focuses on the storyline, many people lose interest in playing it a second time after playing it once. Why pay money when you can get it for free?

However, this only happens when the popularity levels are similar. Now that there's such a gap, it can only be said that Bronya is being somewhat unrealistic.

At noon, all the games exhibited were promptly listed on the Titan Games platform. Because the games were not large in scale, Nangong Yu priced each game at only 29 Titan Games Points. The games were cross-platform compatible and could be downloaded and played on both mobile and PC. This was quite generous, as they did not try to take advantage of the hype to raise prices.

And then, without a doubt, it sold out.

After accessing the backstage parameters, Nangong Yu, Seele, and Bronya stood head to head, watching the almost vertically rising sales curve.

Ten thousand, fifty thousand, one hundred thousand, two hundred thousand...

This scene made Nangong Yu nod in satisfaction, Seele's eyes were full of admiration, and Bronya sighed, dispelling her last hope.

Ultimately, 840,000 copies of "To the Moon" were sold within an hour of its release, followed by several weeks of banner promotions. It should only be a matter of time before it surpasses one million, or even two million, sales.

This has far surpassed the achievements of going to the moon in the previous life. It can only be said that the buffs that Ai Li + Eden have given it are too great, and they cannot be buried at all.

"Are you convinced?"

With her arms crossed, Nangong Yu looked at the somewhat withdrawn Bronya with a cheerful smile.

"...It's just riding on the coattails of Eden's popularity..."

"Even without Eden, do you think you could win?"

"..."

Nangong Yu's question silenced Bronya. Having played the game herself, she naturally understood how high the quality of "To the Moon" was, almost reaching the ceiling of similar games. How could she have confidence in that?

Even without Eden, this would still be a game destined to be a hit; it's not something that Alahato can compete with.

Seeing this, Nangong Yu stopped provoking her and started rolling up his sleeves to get to work.

Starting today, Bronya has finally moved back to live with them. After nearly two years of separation, the three inseparable friends are finally reunited.

However, some minor incidents naturally occurred after we moved back.

There weren't enough rooms on the second floor, so the studio naturally needed to be kept, and the remaining bedrooms were also filled.

At this moment, Seele volunteered to raise her hand, indicating that she would give her room to Bronya, and as for herself... hehehe~

This prompted Bronya to glance at her indifferently, then she smiled and said with a hint of pleasure, "Alright then, Seele, let's share a room from now on."

Xier: “?”

She immediately widened her eyes and looked at the smiling Bronya. This...this isn't right, Seele didn't mean that!

Soon, Nangong Yu saw Xi'er's pleading look.

For the sake of that warm, soft, and fragrant little pillow in the future, Nangong Yu naturally chose to step forward and stand between Seele and Bronya.

"Ahem, Seele has already given up her room, so let her stay wherever she wants. Anyway, the rooms are big enough to accommodate one more person."

Seele also stood behind Nangong Yu, hugging his arm and leaning out half of her body, nodding repeatedly as she looked at Bronya.

"Ah."

Bronya snorted dismissively, said nothing more, picked up her things, and began carrying them upstairs to the second floor.

How could she not know what this lustful brat was thinking? Her words just now were merely to tease her.

As the last rays of the setting sun bathed the streets, the three, who had been busy all afternoon, finally sat on the second-floor terrace and enjoyed a moment of rest.

After drinking a sweet beverage, Seele, who couldn't stay still, ran downstairs to cook, saying that Bronya was finally back and she had to prepare a big celebration.

Without Seele's chatter, the second-floor terrace returned to tranquility.

There was no hustle and bustle of the city outside the residential area. Looking at the orange sky, Bronya was slightly stunned.

She thought she would be very sad after losing, but from the moment she stepped into the house that afternoon, she couldn't help but relax.

It seemed like she hadn't felt this relaxed and carefree for almost two years. This feeling made her feel somewhat dazed, and she couldn't help but recall the scene of their argument two years ago.

Looking back now, Nangong Yu was right. Without sufficient resources, how could one have the right to pursue their dreams? The painful memory of losing the first game and barely being able to afford food is still vivid in my mind. Without Nangong Yu's support, she would have lost long ago.

Having traveled to the moon, she now understands that the so-called contract was nothing more than Nangong Yu patiently playing along with a girl throwing a tantrum. She realized that she had been too arrogant back then; those involved are often blinded, while bystanders see things clearly.

With a sigh, Bronya relaxed and leaned back in her chair, glancing sideways at the equally quiet boy beside her.

The afterglow of the setting sun cast a golden veil over him. He closed his eyes, leaned back in his chair, and breathed evenly, as if he were asleep.

Two years had shed the boy's former immaturity, making him appear more mature. His peaceful sleeping face touched the softest part of Bronya's heart.

Unable to resist, Bronya took out her phone, pointed it at Nangong Yu, and snapped a picture, capturing the moment. After adjusting it slightly and setting it as her phone's background, she nodded in satisfaction.

A gentle breeze stirred, lifting a strand of her hair. Bronya suddenly stood up and quietly walked to Nangong Yu's side.

Bronya, who had intended to play a small prank, suddenly stopped when she lowered her head.

As she watched that face draw closer, a torrent of emotions from the past two years suddenly erupted within her: anger, resentment, but above all, longing for the boy who had once been by her side every day and opened her heart.

Feeling that he was still breathing evenly, Bronya used her fingers to tuck a strand of hair behind her ear, took a deep breath, and slowly leaned down.

Her heart suddenly started racing, and a deep blush spread across her face. Her slightly dizzy mind couldn't tell whether her actions were impulsive or premeditated. The pent-up emotions of the past two years erupted, causing her to temporarily abandon any further thought.

"Consider this your reward for winning."

She managed to find a good excuse for herself, and the scene she had imagined countless times became a reality at this moment.

The setting sun cast long shadows that stretched along the stairs all the way to the kitchen, and at that moment, two long shadows slowly overlapped.

I'm sorry, Seele.

Bronya said slowly to herself.

Chapter Thirty-Two: Is this something that can be said?

"Cheers to the successful release of Bronya and Ayu's game!!!"

In the courtyard of Mei's villa, a lively celebration banquet was being held.

On the spacious grass, several girls and a boy sat together, with a charcoal stove burning continuously between them. A shelf on one side was also full of marinated meat and vegetables, which they placed on the charcoal stove to roast little by little according to their preferences.

Kiana originally suggested drinking beer, but Mei suppressed her suggestion by saying they were underage. So, the group had to drink juice instead of alcohol, but they still enjoyed it quite a bit.

"I never expected you to be so amazing, Yu!"

Kiana downed a glass of juice in one gulp, took a breath, and then moved closer to Nangong Yu, smiling as she patted his shoulder.

"More than two million copies sold in three days, wow, apart from those big titles, I haven't seen such an outrageous result in a long time."

Xilin, standing to the side, also sighed, clearly quite surprised by the result.

Nangong Yu put down her cup, smiled and waved to them: "The one who's amazing isn't me, it's Eden."

"Hey, hey, don't say that! We've all played your game, and Sirin even cried on stream for a long time!"

"You're still bringing it up?!"

Ignoring Nangong Yu, Xilin turned around and started fighting with Kiana.

"Be gentle, or you might get hurt!"

Seeing this, Mei only mentioned it briefly and then didn't bother with it anymore. She couldn't help it; she was used to it.

She used tongs to pick up the meat and vegetables that were almost cooked on the charcoal stove and placed some on Nangong Yu, Bronya, and Seele's plates.

"The seasonings are right next to me. I hope they will suit your taste."

"Thank you."

"You're welcome. I'm happy that we can all get together."

With a gentle smile on her face, Mei's voice was also quite mild.

Kiana doesn't come to visit every day, so the villa is quite deserted on weekdays. Mei really cherishes the opportunity to get together with her friends.

Seele picked up a piece of still-hot meat with her chopsticks, blew on it gently, dipped it in some dry seasoning, and put it in her mouth. A happy expression immediately appeared on her face.

The rich meat juices brought out a wonderful aroma, and Seele couldn't help but exclaim, "Mei's cooking is still so delicious!"

"It's nothing, I just do it a lot usually."

"But Seele cooks every day too, and it tastes nowhere near as good as Mei's."

Hearing Seele's somewhat dejected voice, Mei immediately said, "I'll teach you how to make these sauces when I have time."

"Really? Thank you, Mei~"

"Seele, you don't need to be so polite with me."

Kiana and Sirin were still chasing and playing around, while Seele and Mei were chatting about cooking. Bored, Nangong Yu moved closer to where Bronya was sitting.

But to his surprise, as soon as he got close, he saw Bronya lean against him and press her body tightly against his.

"What's wrong?"

Bronya swept her hair up to the side and tilted her head gently towards him. Her intoxicating smile and the way she leaned on him, along with the delicate fragrance that wafted over him, made Nangong Yu feel a tickle in his heart.

He felt that Bronya had been a little too nice to him these past few days. She liked to stick close to him all the time, which made Seele a little unhappy.

Sure enough, while she was chatting with Mei, she couldn't help but glance back when she saw the two of them huddled together.

"No, it's nothing serious, I just wanted to ask how your Alahatto is doing."

Speaking of her work, Bronya smiled happily: "Thanks to you, although it can't compare to your 'Go to the Moon,' it has already sold over 200,000 copies."

Two hundred thousand copies sold in three days is definitely a blockbuster product.

She rested her head on Nangong Yu's shoulder, her warm breath whispering in his ear, "Thanks to your help with the promotion the other day, this has far exceeded my expectations."
