Mini World Game Console-Chapter 753 - 754 Watching the Same Movie Four Times in One Day!

Gone, gone!

A single lunch, and they were eating amid pervasive crisis.

Qiao Muyi exuded proud confidence. Even her act of picking up vegetables emitted a provocatively cute nasal sound. If she had a tail, it would surely be swaying back and forth.

Ren Xingmei, while eating, kept stepping on Ren Suo's foot under the table.

Gu Yueyan's gaze was luminous, her eyes as if they emitted actual light—moonlight, to be exact. Every time Ren Suo met her eyes, he felt as though a gentle light caressed his retina. It was comfortable, but deadly.

Dong Chengling was naturally serene, quietly eating, except that the Spirit Energy Coordinate Necklace Ren Suo wore heated up from time to time.

Lin Xianyu seemed to sense something was amiss, eating rapidly and heartily, as if she feared all the dishes on the table would be sent flying soon.

The Black Cat, having a small appetite, had finished early. She jumped to the living room side and burrowed into the tub of ice cream. Ever since Bai Ji realized the Black Cat's intense craving for ice cream, he had been transporting tub after tub of ice cream to Dong Chengling's home, letting the Black Cat provide feedback on the taste. This constantly enhanced the efficiency of ice cream flavor improvement and innovation.

Ren Suo had noticed that something was off. He knew something was happening that he wasn't aware of, but given the current atmosphere, it was impossible for him to ask outright. All four girls were like gunpowder kegs with lit fuses; if he pushed further, they might explode instantly.

He had to get away quickly.

As soon as lunch was over, Ren Suo put on his mask, stood up, and said, "Ah, I just remembered I have some urgent matter to attend to, Cheng Ling, just leave the dishes in the sink. I'll come over and wash them tonight. Bye!"

At that moment, Lin Xianyu also burped loudly, suddenly showing an anxious expression. Grabbing Gu Yueyan's and Ren Xingmei's hands, she said, "Class rep, Little Star, I just remembered I haven't done my calculus homework yet, and it's due this afternoon. Could you go back and show me how to do it?"

Ren Xingmei was alright, but Gu Yueyan was irresistibly moved by Lin Xianyu's sudden earnest request to study—like a miracle—and immediately agreed wholeheartedly, "Sure, I'll teach you when we get back. Actually, the partial derivatives we learned a few days ago are quite easy..."

Since Gu Yueyan and Lin Xianyu had left, Ren Xingmei felt it was inappropriate to stay by herself and left with them.

Ren Suo watched this unfold and couldn't help but look at Lin Xianyu with appreciation. Lin Xianyu pursed her lips and hurriedly walked away with Gu Yueyan. I only did this so I could come over and freeload dinner tonight; it's not like I wanted to help you out!

Sensing everyone was about to leave, leaving just Qiao Muyi and Dong Chengling behind, Ren Suo suddenly asked right before he left, "Young Master Mu, are you still working this afternoon?"

Understanding the unspoken meaning immediately, Qiao Muyi, having emerged completely victorious today, decided to rest on her laurels. Her eyes, fox-like, brimmed with an enchantingly mischievous smile as she nodded, "Yes, the Tactical Bureau is quite busy. I'm heading back now."

Qiao Muyi put on her Tactical Vest, walked behind Dong Chengling, lightly bent over, wrapped her hands around Dong Chengling's neck, and gently blew on her earlobe, softly giggling, "Cheng Ling, I'm ready. Take me back."

Even the usually unflappable Dong Chengling, provoked by Qiao Muyi's taunting, felt a frigid killing intent flashing in her eyes!

"Within Reach, Worlds Apart - Blink" ready! "Finger Lock" ready! "Miracle Full Moon" ready!

Only Teleport could counter Teleport!

But if a real fight broke out, Ren Suo truly wasn't sure whether he could intervene in their fierce battle. After all, Qiao Muyi's style was earth-shattering, map-blasting techniques, whereas Dong Chengling's was the traceless, fleeting art of Teleport. Both were peak warriors in their respective skills.

So Ren Suo immediately pinched his Spirit Energy Coordinate Necklace and pumped Spiritual Energy into it.

Sensing the rhythm of the Spirit Energy Coordinates, like someone asking for a hug, Dong Chengling's emerging rage instantly evaporated, replaced by a faint sense of pity instead.

It was like knowing you were the top scorer on an exam beforehand, then watching the other students who were trying hard to catch up suddenly come over and show off their answers. After her initial anger, Dong Chengling naturally found it both amusing and pitiable.

The only bride is me. I forgive your bridesmaid's impudence.

Thus, Dong Chengling calmed her emotions, casually sending Qiao Muyi on her way. Qiao Muyi, realizing that her flirtation hadn't angered Dong Chengling, also felt quite pleased.

You still know how to be a decent person. I'll send you an invitation to the wedding later.

Meanwhile, Ren Xingmei and Gu Yueyan, brought by Lin Xianyu to tutor her in calculus, quickly set aside their subtle grievances and focused on tutoring Lin Xianyu. After all, Lin Xianyu's foundations were truly poor; she had probably copied her previous homework. It took both of their efforts to get her to grasp the concepts.

On the other hand, they had figured out the crux of the matter. Occasionally looking at each other, their eyes revealed an inexplicable confidence and sympathetic pity.

As the victors, it was only right to forgive the vanquished's arrogance. After all, they were classmates and couldn't avoid seeing each other frequently. Let her enjoy the last remnants of twilight before the night, while my countless days and nights ahead will be filled with victories!

...

After Ren Suo returned home, he spent half an hour gathering all the clues and thinking things through, finally managing to piece things together and understand what was going on.

He switched his WeChat to "Xiao Ren" and tried probing Gu Yueyan, Ren Xingmei, and Dong Chengling.

Although the three of them did not say anything explicit to Xiao Ren, the confidence and happiness in their words were unmistakably evident, essentially confirming Ren Suo's guess.

There had been no issues in recent days, but today, an incident occurred, which surely had something to do with Cha Xian'er, who for some reason was very interested in him.

Considering Ren Xingmei received a message on her phone before the change occurred, it must have been Cha Xian'er who had said something to them through their phones.

Or rather, Cha Xian'er spoke to them in his name, saying something that made them happy, which was why their attitudes toward him had suddenly become so warmly enthusiastic.

If there was still time on "Rippling Spring Sounds," Ren Suo could have Virtual Sovereign Ilina help him find out what had happened.

Ren Suo could, of course, ask them directly, but since they had not openly said anything, there must definitely be reasons they could not say.

Everyone acting as if nothing had happened indicates that this was a big minefield.

In fact, Ren Suo's judgment was very correct. Cha Xian'er's ploy was mixed with schemes. If Ren Suo dared to ask them outright, and then they each pulled out their respective recordings, he would hear his recorded sweet nothings to each of them…

If Cha Xian'er used these recordings to snitch on them, they might be angry for a while but get over it. However, their mood had first been elevated by the 'true love recordings limited edition', and once they discovered the 'true love recordings' were a freebie for everyone, the psychological gap this created would definitely leave Ren Suo unable to escape unscathed.

Although there was no concrete evidence, Ren Suo, seeing their reactions and recalling Cha Xian'er's malicious stance, could guess her likely approach—

Sugarcoated assassination.

Regardless, his girlfriends were now emotionally charged and full of enthusiasm, and he had to respond and not let any of them down. Otherwise, it was not a fear of lacking but a fear of unevenness that would lead to a chain reaction that would crash all his emotional value stocks.

Cha Xian'er, Cha Xian'er, I remember you now.

Although Ren Suo wasn't angry or furious, nor did he entertain the silly idea of "revenge"—firstly, he lacked the ability to retaliate against the Great Wall's measuring ruler, and secondly, there were no benefits.

But based on rational deductions, Ren Suo felt that a green tea bitch like Cha Xian'er, who was skilled at sowing discord in others' relationships, must have had a rough love life, probably because the person she liked didn't like her.

Because she couldn't find happiness herself, she felt anger and annoyance at other people's happiness. Just like the lemon mood of a single dog when eating dog food.

However, what Cha Xian'er did wasn't all bad.

As long as Ren Suo didn't step on any mines and kept his girlfriends well-cared for, their emotional value stocks wouldn't drop. Instead, they would continue to skyrocket at a terrifying rate!

If it were just Ren Suo's own effort, he probably couldn't achieve this effect of universal stock rise. It had to be an external force completely unrelated to him, confirming from an outsider's perspective the sincerity of his feelings toward them, that could make them happy and trusting.

It was both a risk and an opportunity. A rational player ought to turn all risks into great opportunities.

Ren Suo switched WeChat back to his own account when Qiao Muyi suddenly messaged him:

Young Master Mu: "Hey hey hey, Xiao Suo, there's a super popular superhero movie that's going to be released soon. It's a worldwide simultaneous premiere. Let's go watch the premiere; then no one can spoil it for me!"

Ren Suo: "Okay! When?"

Young Master Mu: "Midnight showing on the 8th! It's a date then!"

Watch a movie? Though it seemed somewhat a waste of time, since Qiao Muyi wanted to go…

At that moment, Gu Yueyan also sent a message—

Gu Yan: "Mr. Suo, I've corrected your paper. There were a lot of small errors. Can't you be more serious?"

Ren Suo: "I'm sorry, I'll make the corrections. Thank goodness for you."

Gu Yan: "Is there a reward?"

Ren Suo was a bit surprised but immediately replied, "Whatever you want, I'll give it to you."

Gu Yan: "You say that as if you really would give me anything... Accompany me to watch a movie."

Ren Suo frowned slightly.

Could it be...?

Ren Suo: "Hey? Is it that superhero movie that's coming out soon?"

Gu Yan: "Yes, I've heard the special effects are awesome."

Ren Suo: "Do you want to see the midnight premiere?"

Gu Yan: "No, I need to sleep at night. Let's watch the 9 AM show."

Ren Suo: "Okay, should I book the tickets, or will you?"

Gu Yan: "I'll do it. So, it's a date then. Remember to wake up early."

Ren Suo stared at his phone and quietly waited for five minutes. Sure enough, his sister sent a message.

Twinkle Twinkle Bright and Shiny: "Bro!"

Ren Suo: "My unparalleled, adorable sister, what's up?"

Twinkle Twinkle Bright and Shiny: "We haven't been to the movies in a long time!"

Ren Suo: "Location, time!"

Twinkle Twinkle Bright and Shiny: "On the 8th, at 2:30 PM! I've booked the tickets! If you flake on me, I'll tell Mom and Dad!"

Ren Suo: "I'm your brother. How could I flake on you?"

After finishing the chat with his sister, Ren Suo directly messaged Dong Chengling: "Chengling, we haven't dated in a while. How about a movie?"

A minute later, Dong Chengling replied: "Okay."

Ren Suo: "When are you free?"

Dong Chengling: "On the 8th in the evening. I have classes during the day."

I didn't even mention which movie it is. How did you know it's screening on the 8th?

Ren Suo: "Alright, I'll book the tickets. I'll go to the cinema first and wait for you."

Dong Chengling: "Why don't we just Teleport there together from home?"

Because by that time I would have just finished watching the movie with my sister and would still be downtown.

Ren Suo: "Waiting for a girlfriend to arrive is also a romantic part of a date, filled with tense anticipation and joy."

After arranging the dates for four people, Ren Suo sighed deeply.

Ever since he had lost his sentimentality, this was the first time he felt mentally exhausted.

"MEOW."

Ren Suo turned, saw the Black Cat sneaking into his home, and called her over to hold and gently stroke her smooth fur.

Luna is less worrisome.

While petting the cat to relax, Ren Suo thought about the movie invitations that had just happened.

Without a doubt, this was definitely Cha Xian'er's plot and scheme! She suggested the movie to all four, and if Ren Suo rejected any of them, or if two people's movie times overlapped, Ren Suo would be doomed. Luckily, each of their chosen times was different, giving Ren Suo some room to maneuver. The old Ren Suo might not have managed it, but the new Ren Suo was different; he had a bit of confidence that he could smoothly handle the four dates on the 8th.

Thinking this, even though he had lost his sentimentality, Ren Suo still felt somewhat moved.

You think having many girlfriends is a joyful thing? The same movie, I have to watch it four times in a day.

Setting down the Black Cat, Ren Suo wore Pandora's Box and entered the "Door of Truth."

He opened the affection list and looked at the changes in affection value:

Dong Chengling increased by 320 points.

Qiao Muyi increased by 360 points.

Gu Yueyan increased by 290 points.

Ren Xingmei increased by 290 points.

Luna increased by 120 points.

Lin Xianyu decreased by 5 points.

Yu Kuangtu increased by 50 points.

Zhao Huo (Xiao Suo) increased by 70 points.

Newly added: Cha Xian'er's affection, valued at 30 Truth Points.

Ren Suo was puzzled—how had Yu Kuangtu's affection value suddenly increased?

He thought hard and realized the reason: Yu Kuangtu had finally advanced to the fourth transformation and, thinking he could finally communicate with Ren Suo as an equal, his affection had rebounded.

The previous low value of Yu Kuangtu's affection was because he was annoyed and somewhat insecure. Now that his power had caught up, his feelings had also caught up. It was like dealing with a kid's pride.

Ren Suo browsed the redemption list again and suddenly noticed a new spell.

It was Cha Xian'er's awakened spell.

After some thought, Ren Suo realized this spell could help him smoothly pass the third level of the "Door of Truth!"

And although Ren Suo didn't get angry or have any thoughts of revenge, a pretty good idea suddenly occurred to him that could incidentally cause some trouble for Cha Xian'er and also allow him to gain some benefits...

Suddenly, Ren Suo felt something was off, opened the affection list, and sold off Cha Xian'er's affection.

Even though he was absolutely rational, he was still influenced by existing emotions.

Then, Ren Suo continued to ponder the idea that had just occurred to him.

Cha Xian'er is no longer of any concern to me; I won't consider whether it would affect her. So, can I profit from it? Yes. Good, let's go for it.
