I am a businessman from all over the world, not a profiteer!

Chapter 23 Xingyun: Is there something wrong with the way I played this game?

"really weird..."

Xingyun put the company's troubles aside for the time being. Anyway, the company's bad debts of Yalilo would not be discovered so quickly. Instead, he carefully studied the chat records with March 7.

But he searched through the chat history and couldn't find any confession to March 7th?

Those involved are often confused, while bystanders can see things more clearly. How about asking someone else for help?

"Lala, Bronya, can you help me check the chat history? Is there anything that seems like I confessed my love to her?"

The two of them came to Xingyun and watched curiously as he flipped through the chat history with San Yueqi.

However, just as Xingyun had scrolled a few pages, Bronya called a pause and pointed to a sentence in the chat log and asked Xingyun:

"Xingyun, isn't this line, 'Fate hasn't abandoned me after all, it's so great to have met you!' a bit too ambiguous?"

Xingyun shook his head in confusion: "But I'm just stating the facts?"

He didn't think there was anything wrong with this sentence, because following the train crew was definitely better than wandering outside!

He remembered that when he sent this message, he had just finished a fight with the Antimatter Legion and picked up Tingyun by the way!

Tingyun's situation at the time was almost like that of a dead person, and Xingyun did not see any other people's spaceships nearby. If he had not happened to be able to save Tingyun, Tingyun would have turned into Laoyun and gone down to fight Lao in a resurrection match.

When Xingyun thought that even a plot character like Tingyun almost failed to win the resurrection match, he couldn't help but sigh.

He was able to find Sanyueqi among countless netizens across the galaxy and even got a ticket to join the train team. Isn't this the blessing of fate!

"Ugh..."

Seeing Xingyun's complete lack of self-awareness, Bronya sighed and held her forehead with her hands, feeling a little headache.

Come to think of it, he seemed to have the same feeling when he talked to me before?

Could it be... Well, it must just be her illusion!

Xingyun had even invited her to join his harem! Those words had to be a confession! Not just some wishful thinking on her part!

However, in order to avoid any misunderstandings in the future, Bronya decided to correct Xingyun!

Xingyun must be made aware that the way he speaks can easily be misunderstood!

Bronya pointed at Sanyueqi's reply when she asked him what kind of makeup he liked, and continued to ask:

"What about this one? 'You don't need makeup to enhance your beauty. In my eyes, you're the most beautiful girl.' Isn't that a confession?!"

"The only female friend I knew at the time was Sanyueqi, and she was so naturally beautiful that I honestly didn't think she needed makeup."

Xingyun looked at Bronya in confusion. How could his words be considered a confession?

Is he just simply praising March Seventh for her good looks?

Besides, San Yue Qi is good-looking and is a recognized beauty in the universe. There is nothing wrong with what he said, right?

"Isn't this a confession?!"

"Does this... count? But I didn't say I liked her?"

The two looked at each other, and soon Bronya blushed in defeat. She lowered her head and flipped through her phone, trying to find more evidence to convince Xingyun!

But Bronya didn't expect that the more she read the chat records, the more shocked she became!

Although Xingyun did not mention the words "like" or "love" in the entire article, there are countless ambiguous remarks like "As expected, time passes very slowly without you..." and "We can understand each other's thoughts with just one symbol. We are really in tune with each other!"

On the other hand, San Yue Qi did not directly point out the relationship between the two lovers, and also expressed her love for him in a subtle way...

Watching the conversation between the two, Bronya got goosebumps!

No matter how you look at it, this looks like a stupid couple who are always together!

Soon, Bronya found the key point where San Yueqi's attitude towards Xingyun changed significantly!

That was a birthday greeting video!

"Happy birthday, March! Have the cake and dress arrived yet? Even though I can't blow out the candles with you, I found this meteor shower for you!"

In the video, Xingyun points his phone camera at the fireworks displaying the words "Happy Birthday, March 7th" blooming in the sky, set against a romantic backdrop of a meteor shower and accompanied by a song Xingyun sings in the background...

"According to legend in my hometown, wishes made to shooting stars come true! There are still many shooting stars, so you can make all the birthday wishes you missed in the past!"

Such a carefully prepared birthday greeting, not only March 7th, the person involved, but even Bronya was moved!

No wonder the other party fell...

"Xingyun, you even specially found a meteor shower for her, and you still say you don't like her?"

"Um... I was actually just imitating someone else's method, and that wasn't actually a meteor. I created it artificially by breaking up a meteorite belt."

Xingyun explained somewhat embarrassedly that he had actually seen a rich man celebrating his daughter's birthday in this way while watching short videos, and he thought it was good so he imitated it.

But the effect is really good. I was so moved that I cried on March 7th!

I heard from Ji Zi and the others that San Yueqi also liked the dress he gave her and wore it almost every day during that period, but unfortunately she rarely wore it afterwards.

"Lala, what do you think?"

Bronya asked Lala beside her with mixed feelings.

All the evidence shows that he likes March 7th, but he himself denies it!

Is he worried that she and Lala will be jealous?

Lala didn't answer Bronya directly, but looked at Xingyun and asked, "Xingyun, do you like her?"

Xingyun shook his head: "Although I have some feelings for her, I only treat her as a good friend..."

To be precise, he regarded San Yue Qi as his sister. He thought that after joining the train crew, everyone would be his family!

"Then I'm on Bronya's side! Talking like that can easily lead girls to misunderstand you!"

"Eh?"

Oh no, is there really something wrong with my playing style?!

"What do Xi'er and Clara think?!"

Xingyun turned his head to look at the two people who had been unable to get a word in since just now.

"...Don't you just like her?"

"That... Clara also feels that Brother Xingyun is confessing his love."

4:1, the result is obvious!

It's broken, this one really has a problem for me!

"Xingyun, if there was a girl who cared about you meticulously, praised you every day, affirmed everything about you, and went out of her way to learn about your interests just to chat about the same topic with you, what would you think of her?"

"...She wants to be my mother?"

Looking at Bronya's speechless expression, Xingyun scratched his head in confusion. Isn't the only perfect woman who can tolerate all your shortcomings your mother?

Although he had never experienced this as an orphan, the brothers and sisters in the Hedgehog Cat Orphanage were all very kind to him. It’s just that no one could contact him after he was discharged from the hospital. Maybe it was because everyone was starting a new life.

"What if she's a beautiful girl of your age?"

"Oh~ I see. So, in San Yueqi's eyes, I'm the beautiful boy who could become her father?"

Xingyun finally understood what Bronya meant. No wonder he always felt like he was raising a daughter when he gave gifts to Sanyueqi!

"Xingyun, can you first break away from your parents' love? Generally speaking, this is a love between a man and a woman, right?"

Bronya complained to Xingyun helplessly, saying that she always felt that he imagined parental love to be too perfect, to the point that it was even confused with love.

Or are my father-in-law and mother-in-law such perfect people?

Hmm... Considering that we can cultivate a cloud, maybe it is possible?

"Love? Oh, right. Besides parents, love is also involved in selfless devotion."

Xingyun nodded in sudden realization. If one thinks about the problem from the perspective of love, then it is no wonder that March Seventh regards him as a lover.

A beautiful girl of the same age who chats with you every day, plays games with you, and even carefully selects gifts to please you, this will indeed give people the illusion that "she likes me!"

"Instead, I'm curious about how outstanding my father-in-law and mother-in-law are that they make you see parental love and romantic love so closely."

Seeing that Xingyun finally realized the problem, Bronya asked him curiously.

"Perhaps it's because people have too many aspirations for things they don't have?"

"Xing, Xingyun, I'm sorry."

"It's okay. I did care a little when I was a kid, but it didn't matter anymore when I grew up. Now I hope to be that kind of parent like you..."

Seeing Bronya's self-blaming expression, Xingyun stepped forward and gently held her in his arms to comfort her.

But he soon realized a problem. His action of comforting Bronya was completely out of physical instinct, and even his brain didn't react...

Hiss... How could he be so skilled when he was an orphan who didn't socialize much before he traveled through time?

Xingyun opened his personal panel and carefully looked at the talent of the woman with difficult appearance, the curse of pure beauty and reproduction, pure beauty?

Case solved! Don’t pure American believers just love to praise others?

In other words, Chunmei's curse on him is to praise women?

But he had no feelings at all for those beautiful maids in Krippenburg?

Xingyun used the process of elimination to screen a list in his mind, and finally, between the beautiful maid with blond hair Da Lei and Clara, he leaned towards Clara.

It seems that the triggering conditions of his curse are quite picky, and it can't be triggered by just any beautiful woman.

Chapter 24: Store upgrade, chat group crossing unlocked!

"System upgrade chat group."

When he returned to the room at night, Xingyun decisively upgraded the chat group to solve the problem of chat group time travel. Suddenly, he had three more customers!

[The chat group has opened the time travel function! There is currently one upgrade remaining! Currently, you can choose the following modules: 1. Simulator, 2. Sign-in System, 3. Chat Group]

Xingyun looked at the chat group and saw that the upgrade would increase the upper limit of group members, but now there are only 3 group members, and the upper limit of 10 people is nowhere in sight.

The simulator and sign-in system are the same as those introduced before. According to the convention of this system, it is estimated that like the chat group, they need to be upgraded once before they can be used.

"System, can I customize the functions? For example, add a sub-store function to the membership card, and control the prices by myself."

Xingyun felt that face-to-face transactions were too inefficient. Once potato planting became widespread, he wouldn't be able to collect them in batches, right?

What's more, setting up a sub-store means that he can issue his own currency!

At that time, the currency exchange rate and the items in the exchange system mall will all be decided by him!

Once he promotes the sub-stores to the universe, he can earn profits from the price difference every day. Moreover, due to the feature of the system mall that the goods arrive instantly after purchase, he can also save the costs and losses caused by logistics!

[The host's special needs have been detected, and the system's highest authority has been granted. The plan has been approved, and the system editing authority has been opened to the host! ]

"Really cool? It's a beta version, it has so many features! Huh?!"

Xingyun's surprised expression only lasted for a moment, and he felt that his brain was forcibly connected to some higher-dimensional existence.

His cognition is expanding infinitely, his existence is like a drop of cinnabar into the ocean, and his concept of self is merging with the world.

He "saw" the birth and decline of countless worlds, the first cry of a baby, and the closing of the eyes of a dying old man.

He hated death.

The old woman with a decayed breath opened her eyes again, and her body began to become younger. The compassionate pharmacist smiled knowingly and sent down nectar to bless the world.

Destruction adds fuel to the fire of a world that has risen from the dead, but is laughed at by fools who see the new life in the fire.

The balance maintained by the scales tilted again, and the thoughtful wise man cast his gaze. This was a moment he had never calculated.

Until a wisp of mist climbed up to his ankles, reminding him that he was not the world, but an individual named Lucky.

[Ding! The sub-store system has been created! System editing permissions will be terminated in 3 seconds! 3, 2, 1!]

"!!!"

Xingyun was awakened from his sense of omniscience and omnipotence. The Xingyun before the time travel and the luck after the time travel caused a conflict in his self-cognition.

A biting chill came over him, and an ice crystal touched his forehead, correcting the name that had been tampered with by the myth.

[Gained new talent: Memory Blessing.]
