My Real-life Dating Sim Game - Chapter 73

TING! [Otome game assistance activated.]

A grey hologram panel appeared in front of Lai Jiayi with two options.

Accept his invite and have fun

Refuse his invite and run away

10. 9. 8.

Lai Jiayi didn’t know whether to be grateful for this assistance or not.

‘Obviously, there are only those two options, ah! Accept or reject! What do you expect me to do? Suddenly kissing this guy?’

Lai Jiayi rolled her eyes and didn’t hesitate to choose A.

‘If I refuse, I don’t know what will happen with the barometer. Let’s just play it safe. One of the options might lower the barometer instead.’

TING! [You choose A. Accept his invite and have fun. Please do so in 10 seconds.]

The hologram panel disappeared, and now a huge timer replaced it.

10. 9. 8.

Lai Jiayi squeezed her eyes and nodded. “I-if boss wants to t-then, let’s go?”

[Yaya, as you said before. Change of plan. We will stick to Zhao Yang like glue and keep an eye on Tan Xinya. No need to hold back!]

[Okay, quack, ] Yaya answered the same time as Zhao Yang. The man nodded his head and turned around.

“Let’s go inside.”

Lai Jiayi didn’t waste time and immediately trotted behind the man. The girl silently giggled as she tried to catch up to the guy.

‘Actually, I am lucky. Now, I can interact with Zhao Yang outside of my job. Ha, Mr. CEO, I don’t know why you take the initiative tonight. But thanks anyway!’

Just like that, the two of them walked side-by-side to the bar. Since the bar was quite crowded, Lai Jiayi had to stay close to Zhao Yang.

Strangely, the girl didn’t feel any discomfort. It was as if she was so used to this guy that her phobia didn’t act up.

‘Maybe because this guy is the only man I often interact with. Plus, he is kind, and I know he will never harm me? Hmmm…’

Lai Jiayi was wondering in her heart and didn’t pay attention to the bar interior. The girl just blindly followed Zhao Yang until they arrived at the circle bar Zhao Yang used to visit.

The guy sat down on his usual seat as he spoke to Lai Jiayi,

“Here. Sit here.” The man crooked his finger, urging the girl to sit next to him. He looked like he didn’t mind sitting next to Lai Jiayi.

Lai Jiayi didn’t waste her chance. She nodded and slowly sat down on the floating metal chair without a backrest. She had to keep her back straight this way.

“T-thank you…” the girl put her arm on the small counter in front of her as she thanked Zhao Yang. She was thanking the man, but her eyes were on the huge pillar behind the counter.

The pillar contained all kinds of alcohol, and one could see so many bartenders walking around inside the circle place.

‘So this is where Tan Xinya works.. ‘

Lai Jiayi’s eyes were sparkling, not noticing that her seat was so close to Zhao Yang’s seat that her left arm touched the man’s shoulder.

Zhao Yang flinched. The guy peeked at the girl beside her, and upon seeing the girl’s sparkling eyes, he couldn’t bear to say anything.

The man just shook his head and smiled bitterly.

‘She is so like Biyu. If Biyu is still alive, she will have the same reaction with this girl here.’

Zhao Yang was thinking in silence when a woman figure suddenly approached him inside the circle place meant for the bartenders.

The woman came from Zhao Yang’s direction. Thus she didn’t see Lai Jiayi for the time being.

“Mr. Zhao, ” the woman spoke, and her flirtatious voice sent a chill down Lai Jiayi’s spine. She instantly looked to the left to see a tall black-haired woman in a golden crop top cheongsam dress.

The dress had a short sleeve and a short skirt as well, plus the pattern on the clothes was a leopard pattern.

The woman was oozing with a sexual appeal from head to toe, and as usual, she tied her hair into a low ponytail, revealing her smooth, white neck. A pity that a green king cobra AI covered the woman’s neck.

Upon seeing the woman, Lai Jiayi instantly stiffened.

‘Tan Xinya! And that snake is also here.’

Lai Jiayi bit her lips as she heard Zhao Yang responding with a short reply.

“Mm.”

The guy didn’t say anything else, looking as cold as usual. Facing this response, Tan Xinya just put a fake smile on her face. She was about to ask again when she noticed a small girl sitting right next to the man.

The woman raised her left eyebrow.

‘Who is that? A customer? But, usually, no one sits around Zhao Yang.’

Tan Xinya stepped forward again, heading towards Lai Jiayi’s place to see the girl’s face. Once she was close enough, she could finally see the girl’s face.

! Isn’t that…Lai Jiayi??

The smile on Tan Xinya’s face slowly disappeared. Her face turned grim.

‘What is that brat doing here?! I want to execute my plan to make Zhao Yang cry. If that girl is here…how could I do that??’

Tan Xinya stared dagger at Lai Jiayi, and Zhao Yang noticed it. He subconsciously frowned.

‘Why is this woman looking at Lai Jiayi as if she’s a mortal enemy?’

The man straightened his back and coughed. “Is there something wrong?” His flat tone sent a chill down Tan Xinya’s spine. The woman instantly turned around to look at Zhao Yang with a smile on her face.

“I’m sorry, but if you don’t mind…who is that lovely girl?”
