Fallen Chronicles-Chapter 398 : Interested in a Small Commercial Performance?

Lena had thought of many ways to strike up a conversation.

For example, after entering the convenience store, she would first pretend to want to buy something, then feign confusion about the product, and thus start talking to the young man.

Another example would be to come and reprimand those Alliance employees who were joining in the excitement, then express apologies to the young man as a victim of the scandal, and use this as an excuse to invite him out for a meal to apologize.

However, in reality, when Lena entered the store and saw the young man who had taken a photo with her yesterday actually appearing here, that feeling of joy from finding what was lost had already turned all her plans into bubbles.

The chubby guy, after being stunned, was about to go forward to greet the pink-haired woman, but unfortunately, the pink-haired woman didn't spare him a glance and walked straight past him.

"What a coincidence." Lena, now in front of Renji, stared straight at the young man.

In fact, Renji's feelings towards Lena were quite complicated now.

On one hand, seeing her actually come to find him and appear in front of him again, that feeling of joy as if they were lovers still rushed straight to his heart. But on the other hand, because of what happened with Miyuki last night, Renji's conscience faced condemnation and he felt very conflicted about Lena.

But the pink-haired woman obviously didn't care about that. She first glanced at the employee name tag on the young man's chest, firmly remembering the name "Renji", then quickly asked:

"Renji... right? Since we've met again by such a coincidence, are you interested in taking on a small commercial performance?"

"Small commercial performance?"

"Yes, a small commercial performance. Don't worry, the process isn't complicated. You just need to follow along with the event, and at the end, you just need to say 'I do'. In the end, you can even obtain a national-level certificate." Lena casually flipped her pink short hair.

Renji had never taken on any commercial performances, but for some reason, he found it very hard to refuse the words of the pink-haired woman in front of him. It seemed that no matter what she said, he was willing to cooperate.

Is this what they call "love"?

Love is love, but there was still unfinished work at hand.

"Is this commercial performance urgent?"

"Urgent, very urgent, because in a little while, the staff over there might be off work." Lena glanced at her watch.

"Understood, then I'll go ask for leave."

If the dumbfounded chubby guy beside them thought that everything happening in front of his eyes was too magical, then Lena's subsequent actions further demonstrated to him what magic was.

Seeing that Renji still had to "ask for leave" after hearing her words, Lena frowned slightly. It wasn't because she was dissatisfied that Renji didn't directly come with her, but because she was dissatisfied that the young man still had to ask someone else for leave.

"Wait a moment."

After letting Renji wait for a bit, Lena finally turned around and put her attention on the chubby guy who had been treated as air the whole time.

"Come here."

"Director Lena, what is it?" When Shota naively thought that good fortune had also descended upon him, Lena's next words left him puzzled.

"You should have your store manager's contact information, right?"

"Yes, yes, Director Lena, you..."

"Please give it to me."

The slightly dazed chubby guy gave the store manager's number to Lena. Lena walked out of the convenience store and made a phone call. In less than three minutes or so, Lena walked back in again.

"Alright, this store is closed for the afternoon. Chubby guy, I'll trouble you to tidy up the store later."

Chubby... chubby guy...

Shota twitched the corner of his mouth. There was clearly an employee tag with his name written on it on his chest too.

But what was even more strange to Shota was that this store was closed for the afternoon. How could it be such a coincidence? He didn't receive any notification from the store manager.

Could it be that Director Lena asked for the store manager's contact information just now to let the store manager close for the day today, in order to free up time for Renji?

That's too much!

The chubby guy was still frantically complaining in his heart, but what he didn't expect was that he still underestimated Lena.

"Now, I'm the store manager of this store."

Seeing the chubby guy still standing there in a daze, Lena added a sentence.

"Director Lena, you... you bought it?"

"Mm, it wasn't expensive. I spent less than 4,000,000 yen and the store manager handed it over to me. It's about a month's salary or so."

Shota: "..."

Watching Lena and Renji's figures gradually disappear into the distance, the chubby guy, left alone to tidy up the convenience store and prepare to close, shed tears of envy.

He was angry that even though Renji had such talent in "Fallen Chronicles II" and could have started a business with him, why did he have to be a kept man!

He was even more angry about why he couldn't be a kept man like that!

Huh?

Wait!

Shota suddenly remembered that Renji had previously come to him for relationship advice with some outrageous questions. The girl in the questions who wanted to practice being a couple with Renji was denounced by him as a Sneaky Sweetheart.

But now it seems that Director Lena is just going on a date with Renji. Could it be that Director Lena is that, that... Sneaky Sweetheart!?

Nooooo!!

If there's anything more upsetting than having your goddess pursued by someone else, it's that the goddess is the one actively pursuing.

Shota felt that his faith had been shaken.

In order to cut his losses in time and make himself feel better, the chubby guy urgently needed to shift his attention and find a new goddess to believe in.

Fortunately.

There was a new goddess.

After all, the Alliance wasn't initially famous for Director Lena, but for the legendary founder of the Alliance, President Miyuki! Affectionately called the Elf Mommy by players!

Although President Miyuki gradually faded out of the spotlight later on, she could still be the untouchable dream in his heart.

Phew...

After unfollowing Lena and re-following Miyuki's social media account, Shota's grief-stricken heart finally gained a bit of tranquility.

Originally, they did say they were going to a small commercial performance, but later Lena found out that Renji didn't have an ID card at the moment, so she had no choice but to give up.

Taking this opportunity, Lena also calmed down a bit and wasn't so impulsive anymore.

Since the small commercial performance couldn't be done, the two of them couldn't just wander around outside aimlessly. Lena quickly changed the location and brought Renji to a mobile phone store.

Lena always remembered that Renji said he didn't have a mobile phone. This was also Lena's heart disease, and she had to cure it now.

But actively giving the young man a phone was the method of a low-level rich woman. High-level rich women, like the previous "small commercial performance", all emphasized culture.

Lena buying the convenience store wasn't just to let Renji take time off. More importantly, she could use the identity of "store manager" to do many things.

Just like now.

"Mr. Renji, which one do you like?"

"No, Director Lena, I..."

"First of all, you should call me store manager now, but I'm very close to my employees. You can just call me Lena. Secondly, don't refuse. A mobile phone is a necessity for the studio. As the store manager, I need to be able to maintain communication with my employees. If anything happens, it's easy to explain. So this phone is considered to be provided by the comp... the convenience store for work purposes."

Lena's words were indeed flawless, leaving Renji unable to find any point to refute.

However, Renji still refused in the end. Lena wanted to buy him the latest model costing over 200,000 yen, but he chose a model costing a few thousands, the cheapest one that could make and receive calls, and told Lena that this would be deducted from his salary later.

Seeing such a stubborn young man, Lena didn't say much. Instead, this stubborn attitude and that slightly immature pride made her like him even more. Being able to see Renji in this immature period made her very satisfied.

Hmm...?

Why did I think of that?

Had I seen Renji in any other period?

Lena felt a bit strange in her heart, but quickly threw it to the back of her mind, because just as they were about to check out, something unexpected happened.

"Miss, sir, congratulations! Our store is currently holding an anniversary celebration event, and you are our store's 721st consumer! You've won our store's special lucky prize. Now you can upgrade your model to the latest luxury version for free! Please wait a moment, we'll replace it for you right now!"

After the enthusiastic store clerk at the front desk congratulated the two, before they could react, the phone that cost a few hundred earlier was taken away by the store clerk. Soon after, the store clerk brought out another new phone of considerable value from the back and presented it to the two.
