NOVEL NEXT Chapter 77: Gifts
[You stole the limelight that should have belonged to the Dragon King, making Long Haotian's inner thoughts very uncomfortable, wishing he could take his place on the spot, reducing the opponent's IQ -1-1-1-1-1... luck -500, congratulations, you have received the reward [Cultivation Years +12 years]!]
"For the first time, Lin Zichan felt surrounded by high and mighty bigwigs flattering her, as if she were in a dream. She knew that all of this did not belong to her, but to you beside her; all of this was brought by you!"
[Suddenly, she began to enjoy this feeling a bit, emotional fluctuation +20, congratulations, you have received the reward [Proficiency +5000]!]
...
Mu An glanced at Lin Zichan.
Since she was interested in this superficial commercial flattery, he was happy to let her be the tool to block these guys.
It just so happened that she was also planning to establish a new game company recently.
Perhaps there could be cooperation with these people.
And then, of course... it would be a good way for him to make money (explode gold coins)!
As the saying goes, "Utilize people to their fullest potential!"
The female lead as a tool should have the awareness of being a tool!
"My fiancée is currently planning to establish a brand new game company, and I have also invested."
"If you are interested, you can talk to her about related cooperation!"
As soon as these words came out, Lin Zichan couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
Smart as she was, she quickly understood.
He was helping her, no, to be precise, he was using this to let her help him make more money?
And those business tycoons, who were already sharp as a tack, had their eyes light up.
They hadn't heard of Young Master Mu investing in any company before, but that didn't matter now.
With the Mu family's protective nature, they certainly wouldn't let their precious son and daughter-in-law's new company run into problems.
Not only would there be no problems, but they might also provide strong support!
Even if the game turned out to be terrible, the Mu family could use countless funds to prop it up!
So, this was a huge business opportunity laid out before them!
"President Lin, I have a top-notch art team; I wonder if I can participate?"
"Operations! My company has the best game operation experience in the country! If you can entrust us with this aspect, we guarantee you won't be disappointed! We are even willing to pay to participate!"
"What does that matter? No matter how good the game is, if there's no promotion, who will know? So, please let me cooperate with you! Our company's promotional capabilities are the best in the industry! We can also pay to participate!"
Lin Zichan was also taken aback by this sudden 'bustle.'
In the past, the scene where industry bigwigs lowered their stance to 'self-promote' to her might have only been a dream!
But now, all of this was really happening right in front of her!
This greatly satisfied her vanity!
However, she quickly displayed the strong demeanor of a strong woman, neither humble nor pushy, engaging seriously with everyone.
Originally, her purpose for attending the charity gala was to leverage her identity as Young Master Mu's fiancée to facilitate more cooperation!
She just didn't expect that Mu An's one sentence was more effective than her trying to talk to others with her identity alone!
[Your desire to use her as a money-making tool was seen through by Lin Zichan. She couldn't resist, but she also enjoyed it, going to earn more and more money, emotional fluctuation +15, congratulations, you have received the reward [Money +7 million]!]
[Surrounded by stars, facing the flattery of many bigwigs, Lin Zichan felt elated and exceptionally satisfied, grateful to be your fiancée, increasing her favorability towards you +1+1+1+1... emotional fluctuation +20, congratulations, you have received the reward [Plot Fragment *1]!]
...
"What a baffling woman!"
Mu An couldn't help but mutter.
One moment she didn't want to be his fiancée, and the next she was glad to be his fiancée?
However, seeing her working hard to explode gold coins for him, he chose to ignore her strange thoughts.
Feeling relaxed, Mu An smiled at a certain person who had been staring over here and casually used his identification eye.
This made Long Haotian furious.
That useless rich second generation actually dared to mock him?
How dare he laugh at him!?
Damn! This is really damn it!
His face darkened, and he instinctively gripped the armrest of the wooden chair tightly.
He even left deep handprints!
This left Lin Tu astonished.
His eyes gradually became heated.
It seems that the brother he recognized really has some skills!
Only the attendant beside them hesitated to speak.
Casually damaging their items would cost money!
——————
Name: Long Haotian
Identity: Dragon King Protagonist
Fortune: 80,000
Cultivation Level: Peak Inner Strength
Skills: [Charming Smile], [Dragon King Eight Styles Fist], [Dragon King Techniques] ...
——————
Peak Inner Strength cultivation level?
Mu An raised an eyebrow.
He thought the other party's strength would be impressive.
Turns out, they are just a small fry!
The other party can't even defeat him, a newcomer who has been practicing for less than two and a half months!
In fact, what Mu An didn't know was that having a peak Inner Strength cultivation level at Long Haotian's age was already quite impressive.
Others, without great opportunities or suitable techniques, might spend decades without advancing even a small level!
And those who have reached the Transformation level are already considered trump cards in some prominent families!
They are all respected figures!
...
Time passed slowly.
The auction was about to officially begin!
Mu An sampled the dishes provided here.
The taste was indeed decent, but not much.
His evaluation was that it was not as good as the imported grapes his little maid fed him!
"Ladies and gentlemen, hello!"
"I'm glad everyone could attend this charity auction!"
"All proceeds from today's auction will be donated to relevant charitable organizations!"
"Now we will start the auction for the first item..."
An old man with white hair was explaining one auction item after another.
Mu An remained uninterested, feeling rather bored.
Perhaps it was because the person introducing the auction items was not a beautiful young lady?
Meanwhile, Lin Zichan had returned and was sitting beside him, seemingly not interested in participating in the auction either.
"You came to the charity auction but aren't participating?"
To earn extra emotional rewards, Mu An was playfully toying with her little hand, enjoying himself.
Still the same saying.
'Everything for emotional rewards! This little 'sacrifice' is worth it!'
"I'm not very interested in these things!"
Lin Zichan shook her head.
Her main purpose for coming here was to see if she could take the opportunity to collaborate with these business tycoons!
As for the rest, she really didn't care much!
Regarding the unusual situation with her hand... she just shot Mu An a glance and didn't want to struggle anymore.
Let's just consider it a 'gift' from him for helping her today!
Mainly because she knew that even if she struggled, it wouldn't be of any use!
As long as he didn't use that weird popping candy to mess with her on the spot, she would be eternally grateful!
"Next, we will auction an item called the Dragon and Phoenix Harmony Hairpin!"
The old man with white hair said loudly.
At this, Mu An paused his movements.
On the other side, Long Haotian's eyes suddenly widened.
Because he reacted!
To be precise, his technique suddenly reacted!
It was like a hungry baby, constantly telling him.
It desperately needed this item!
Just like a fish needs water!
The more, the better!
