My mobile game wife came knocking.

"Klee? Nana?"

The girl glanced at Ye Ming and feigned surprise, saying, "I didn't expect you to be a lolicon, at least three years old."

Ye Ming smiled and said, "There aren't that many lolicon in the world. Most people just treat little girls like daughters and want to dress them up to be pretty and cute. Isn't that a normal thing?"

"Huh? Is this your reason for cosplaying Laffey as a bride? Do you treat Laffey like a daughter too?"

"Don't talk nonsense. I've always treated Raffi like a cute little girl. She has nothing to do with my daughter."

Ye Ming retorted seriously. Laffey was his marriage ship. It would be strange to treat her like a daughter, even if it was just talk. But if he treated her as a junior, it wouldn't be strange if she really grew up and he treated her as a real marriage ship.

"I understand, I understand!" The girl nodded, looking like she understood everything and didn't need to say anything more, and laughed, "No one is a lolicon, it's just that the person they like happens to be a loli."

Ye Ming smiled and didn't refute. The girl was just joking; he wouldn't take such a joke seriously.

Strangely enough, despite it being only their second meeting, there was surprisingly little awkwardness or distance between them. They chatted quite relaxed and naturally, partly due to shared interests, but mostly because of the girl.

Well, Ye Ming felt that the girl beside him was not only beautiful, but also had a special kind of temperament. If he had to describe it, Ye Ming felt at first glance that the girl came from an extraordinary background, somewhat like a well-bred young lady from a noble family in a novel. However, when chatting, the girl was very cheerful and straightforward, which made people feel relaxed and happy without realizing it.

In summary, young girls are particularly easy to like.

Especially yesterday on the subway, the girl accidentally pressed the speakerphone button on her phone, and immediately turned it off in embarrassment. When Ye Ming looked over, she sincerely apologized. This small incident shows that she is a girl with excellent manners and character.

"By the way, I haven't asked your name yet?"

Ye Ming took the initiative to ask the girl's name.

Upon hearing this, the girl glanced at Ye Ming and smiled, "You might not believe it, but my name is Ke Qing."

"what?"

Upon hearing the girl's answer, the first thing that came to Ye Ming's mind was the girl he had met that morning who called herself Yae Sakura. Both girls were very beautiful, and both had hair and contact lenses of the same color as the original characters. To be honest, for a moment, Ye Ming even suspected that Keqing and Yae Sakura were girls from the mobile game he had played, and now they had come to the real world like Laffey.

But Ye Ming immediately shook his head and dismissed the absurd idea.

When Laffey came into this world, his Azur Lane account disappeared completely. However, last night when he downloaded Azur Lane at the supermarket, he also downloaded Honkai Impact 3. As it turns out, his Honkai Impact 3 account is still there and did not mysteriously disappear like Azur Lane.

But are there really that many character fans in this world who would change their names? Although I'm not sure what conditions are required to change one's name, generally speaking, changing it to the name of a character in a game must not be a simple matter, right?

Perhaps the girl simply doesn't want to reveal her real name.

"Hello Ke Qing, my name is Ye Ming."

Ye Ming gave a formal greeting without asking any further questions.

Although the girl's cheerful and straightforward demeanor seemed contradictory to her act of hiding her name, everyone has their own little secrets. After all, the two were strangers who had only met twice, so Ye Ming didn't think there was anything wrong with the girl's behavior, nor would he bother to pry into it.

"My name is indeed Ke Qing."

The girl seemed to understand Ye Ming's thoughts. After thinking for a moment, she took out a card from her bag and handed it to Ye Ming.

Ye Ming took it and saw that it was actually the girl's business card.

Above, the company section reads Liyue International, the position section reads Project Manager, and the name section actually reads Keqing.

Ye Ming was shocked. Of course, he wasn't surprised that the young girl had taken on the high position of project manager at such a young age. Unlike the state-owned enterprise where Ye Ming had initially worked, in today's society, everyone knows how much of a title can be exaggerated. Some companies can have any intern with a manager title, just like Ye Ming's job name says sales manager, but in reality, he doesn't have anyone under him; it's just for show.

Ye Ming was surprised that the girl's name was actually Keqing, and even more surprised by the name of the company, Liyue International. Keqing and Liyue made it hard for anyone who had played Genshin Impact not to think of Liyue Harbor in the game.

"You, Liyue International..."

"It's a joint venture between several families, with most of the capital overseas, so it's considered a foreign-invested company. We're currently preparing to develop the domestic market, so I voluntarily transferred myself here. There will be new projects soon."

Ke Qing seemed to be a talkative girl, and her cheerful smile never stopped when she was talking to Ye Ming.

"You're really amazing."

Ye Ming sincerely praised it.

"It's alright, I just take my work seriously, and I like it..."

She paused mid-sentence, then fell silent.

"What do you like?" Ye Ming asked casually.

"No, it's nothing."

Ke Qing said vaguely.

She originally wanted to say that she liked 997, but before she could say it, she realized that saying it might affect Ye Ming's opinion of her and reduce the goodwill she had worked so hard to cultivate, so she simply kept quiet.

"We've arrived at the bridal shop."

Ke Qing changed the subject, pointing to a wedding dress shop not far ahead.

"Hmm~"

Raffi, who had been playing on her phone with her head down, perked up instantly when she heard the word "bridal shop." She stopped playing on her phone, grabbed Ye Ming's hand, and looked at the various wedding dresses behind the transparent glass of the shop with anticipation and excitement in her eyes.

Ye Ming appeared calm on the surface, but he was also quite looking forward to it.

He had seen and even touched Lafite in a wedding dress in the game, but he never had the chance in real life.

How adorable would little Lafite be in a wedding dress?

Incidentally, although a little embarrassed, Ye Ming was also quite interested in seeing Master Ke's wedding dress.

Chapter Twenty-Seven: Wedding Photos, the Corporation, and Liyue

"welcome!"

Amidst the welcoming greetings of the sales assistant, Ye Ming, Lafite, and Ke Qing entered the bridal shop. After looking around, they found that there were indeed no wedding dresses for little girls; they would have to have them custom-made.

"Do you offer custom wedding dress services here?"

Having anticipated this situation, Ye Ming didn't hesitate and asked the sales assistant directly.

The sales assistant smiled and said, "Yes, we support you. We are a professional wedding dress shop with a wide variety of wedding dresses. The quality is excellent and the prices are affordable. We have cooperated with many professional wedding dress designers. As long as you have any needs, we can generally satisfy you."

"That……"

Ye Ming hesitated for a moment, then pulled Lafite in front of him, "Can you customize wedding dresses for little girls here?"

Although Ye Ming had tried to lower his voice, it was still quite noticeable in the quiet wedding dress shop. As soon as Ye Ming finished speaking, several shop assistants looked at Ye Ming and Lafite, and the saleswoman's smile froze on her face.

The atmosphere instantly became extremely awkward.

Lafite, one of the parties involved, looked around at the various gazes of the shop assistants, and then at the stiff expression on the saleswoman's face. Her big eyes were filled with confusion.

After all, when Laffey was in the port, it was quite normal for a little girl to receive a ring from the commander and become a wedding ship. As for wedding dresses, the wedding shops in the port not only support custom-made dresses, but also have many ready-made wedding dresses that fit the little girl's body shape.

Therefore, Raffi couldn't understand the staff's reaction and the fact that the bridal shop was full of wedding dresses for adults.

Ye Ming, the other party involved, faced an awkward and somewhat heavy atmosphere. Although he was a little nervous, his expression remained unusually calm.

He had anticipated this situation, so he naturally continued, "We need professional wedding dress cosplay costumes because we're not comfortable ordering them online. We'd like to come to a physical store to check them out. Can you customize wedding dresses that fit a little girl's body?"

As he spoke, Ye Ming turned to Ke Qing and asked, "And you? Did you buy a ready-made wedding dress or have it custom-made?"

"I'll make it to order; none of the ready-made ones meet my requirements," Ke Qing replied with a smile.

After listening to the two, the saleswoman breathed a sigh of relief, and her stiff expression gradually relaxed: "So you want to order cosplay costumes? No problem, we have professional designers here. Whether it's anime-style wedding dresses or little girls' wedding gowns, we can customize them."

"Of course, if you two have your own design drawings, you can give them to us for customization."

"I don't have the design drawings."

Ke Qing spoke first. She had only come up with the idea on a whim when she heard Ye Ming wanted to buy a wedding dress, so of course she didn't have any design sketches. "Let's just use yours. When we're designing, can we talk to the designer and make some requests?"

"of course can."

The sales assistant smiled broadly, "What style and material of wedding dress would you like, ladies? We also have a few designers here..."

Next came the conversation between Ke Qing and the sales assistant. Ye Ming, who knew nothing about wedding dresses, found it overwhelming and simply went to rest on the sofa by the door. Little Lafite, looking completely bewildered, started to doze off out of boredom.

Half an hour later, the discussion about the style, material, and other issues of the wedding dress was finally completed. The sales assistant brought out several samples, and Ye Ming asked Lafite to choose one he liked. After taking his measurements, he confirmed the price, deposit, and delivery time with the sales assistant. After waiting for Ke Qing to make her choice, the purchase of the wedding dress was finally over.

However, just as Ye Ming breathed a sigh of relief, the dedicated saleswoman spoke up again: "Gentlemen, we currently have a promotion in our store. If a couple orders together, we can give you a free set of wedding photos. Although you two bought cosplay outfits and both are wedding dresses, I can still help you arrange a discount for couples ordering together."

As she spoke, the sales assistant glanced at Lafite again: "This little girl can take a picture with us too."

Ye Ming felt a little embarrassed and waved his hand, wanting to refuse.

But just as he raised his hand, Ye Ming suddenly felt someone tugging at the hem of his shirt. Looking down, he discovered it was Lafite.

Little Lafite looked down at her toes, but her little hands gripped the hem of Ye Ming's shirt with a slight force, without making a sound.

Ye Ming, who had originally intended to refuse, suddenly hesitated.

Is it really possible?

Almost the instant the saleswoman finished speaking, Ke Qing interjected, "There's even such a discount! How lucky! This way, we don't even have to pay for a photographer, and we can see the wedding photos in advance. It's really great!"

After Ke Qing finished speaking with great interest, she glanced at Ye Ming, as if she had just thought of him, and asked hesitantly, "Um, can the wedding photos be taken separately?"

The sales assistant's smile remained unchanged: "I'm sorry, that's not possible. However, you can ask this gentleman for help; we can provide a suit for the photoshoot free of charge."

"Oh, this."

Ke Qing paused, a perfectly measured blush and embarrassment appearing on her face. She glanced at Ye Ming somewhat shyly, then hesitated and said bashfully, "Um, I just returned to the country, and I don't have many friends in this city. Could you...could you..."

?

Is it possible to hire someone to help with wedding photos?

Is it really necessary to go to such lengths just for a discount?

Ye Ming was full of questions, but after a moment's thought, he understood.

He brought Raffi to have a real wedding dress made, of course, but in Keqing's eyes, her and Raffi's wedding dresses were just props for cosplay and had nothing to do with real wedding dresses.

Thinking about it this way, it's somewhat understandable.

"of course can."

Ye Ming nodded in agreement. Then, as if he wanted to take advantage of the situation, he looked at the saleswoman and pulled Lafite in front of him: "You just said she could take a set of photos too, right? Since it's free, I might as well take some photos with her too, can I take a set of photos with her later?"

"Of course," the sales assistant smiled and nodded. "Please rest assured, we have professional wedding photographers here with rich experience. The results will definitely be much better than ordinary cosplay photos, and we are sure you will be satisfied."

Lafite looked pleasantly surprised.

Ye Ming smiled. His move not only helped Ke Qing, but also allowed him to take a real wedding photoshoot with Raffi to fulfill the little girl's wish, all without worrying about legal repercussions. It was incredibly clever.

Ke Qing smiled too. She had only used a little trick and gained an unexpectedly huge reward, making her extremely happy.

The saleswoman smiled too. Not only had she sold two wedding dresses, but she had also earned some extra money from the female customer, and might even have helped a couple get married. She had done a good deed and made money at the same time. Was there anything more gratifying in the world?
