137 Little Miss, You Have Been Exposed

Rong Yue watched as the family of five was led out by the guards without saying anything. With them leaving, the crowd that had gathered around also left.

“This Young Miss and Mister, sorry about what just happened, people like that would occasionally show up,” he apologized while his left hand was at the back of his head as he tried to think of the way he could compensate them.

They already had the premium card and the next best card after that, it showed that these were people that didn’t lack money. And so, a mere gift of telling them they didn’t have to pay for their coins would not be worth anything.

“It’s okay, it’s has nothing to do with your management. You have also handled the matter perfectly,” Rong Yue said, getting into her role as a big boss for a moment.

While the manager was slow in catching on, Qin Yichen’s eyes already narrowed at her words.

On the surface, her words sounded completely normal as she was just being kind enough to let the matter go.

But for Qin Yichen that had his suspicions the moment he saw the card, this statement was a bit too much for a customer! It totally sounded like she was giving him an assessment on how he performed!

The manger nodded repeatedly, glad that she hadn’t taken offense and then looked at Qin Yichen.

“Anything Yue’er says goes,” Qin Yichen said with a shrug and then used his hands to rub Rong Yue’s hair a little.

…..

The manager’s mouth twitched slightly as he tried to make an explanation in his mind on why a brother would be this doting. Especially with that intense look of adoration in the man’s eyes as he rubbed the young girl’s head.

Rong Yue shook her head free from his grasp before raising her white and large eyes to glare at him.

Qin Yichen chuckled, feeling like she looked extremely adorable like that and then rubbed her head one more time.

The manager thus made the move to leave them, however, as he turned, he remembered a certain important matter!

How did the master card that he had sent to his boss suddenly appear with this girl? Was she their young miss?

“This Miss, please do you mind telling me where you got that card from? It is our special card and there’s only one of it,”

Rong Yue looked at manager Bai whose eyes were shining with eagerness to know what the truth of the matter was and smiled. Since she had already guessed that he might ask about the card later on, she had already prepared an explanation at the back of her mind.

In fact, she had been a little surprised to see him turning to go without asking, after all, who wanted a dumb teammate.

Now that he asked, she sighed in relief and replied casually.

“My uncle gave this card to me when I informed him I was coming here. Is there any matter?”

Her answer was flawless, coupled with the fact that Manager Bai would never have imagined in his wildest dreams that this little girl would be the person that had reached out to him in less than four months ago, he didn’t suspect anything and nodded hurriedly.

But now that he knew that it was indeed from their family, his attitude got even more respectful towards them. “Please do let your uncle know that this place has been running well!” He added before turning to go.

Rong Yue nodded obediently and then led Qin Heng away.

“Little darling, let’s go over to that side, I’m sure there would be better games that aren’t jinxed over there.” Without any warning, she bent down and lifted the boy up.

Qin Yichen followed them as they went to the other side of the arcade room. However, this time around, Qin Yichen carefully checked everything out. To think that his little girl had gone ahead to have something like this?

Although he was sure she owned it, he still had some blank spaces as he remembered that when he had met her about five months ago, she had no money and was just thinking of painting some art to sell off.

The arcade center had opened six months ago. So he wondered if it was that she had used up all of her money to build this up or if something else had happened along the way. After all, as he remembered the living condition of the mother daughter pair back then, the more he crossed that out of the line.

The most important person to Rong Yue was her mother and the little girl would do anything to have the woman not worry about her. So if she had the means back then, it was impossible to not have done anything to make their lives better.

He also knew that the moment she got her salary from the flower shop, she had bought a phone for the both of them and then resigned as soon as she sold her painting.

All of this made it easy to see that her priority was clearly taking care of her mother and their living conditions.

But if that was the case, how did she set up a place like this in just a mere six months.

The arcade center was the biggest in the capital yet and the only reason why the ticket and playing fee wasn’t too high was because they wanted all kids to get equal chance to explore all of the high technology games regardless of their parent’s financial capacity.

But he had started to hear whispers of their plan to branch out and many other companies were intending to partner with them. A part of him had suspected before today that the arcade games place would have different types all over the country and their entry fees would start to differ based on the location also.

When he had that suspicion previously, he had thought in his mind that the person that owned this was someone that was very thoughtful and patient with their planning.

He just had not expected that his Yue’er would have something to do with it.

After setting up Qin Heng on a virtual game console, Rong Yue stepped back. She had no idea that Qin Yichen had been directly behind her thus allowing her to hit his chest and Qin Yichen hurriedly wrapped his hands around her to pull her into his chest.

Rong Yue tried to struggle quickly, feeling uncomfortable about allowing him to just embrace her like that.

“What uncle is that gave you this card, Yue’er?” Qin Yichen leaned in to ask, allowing his musky and masculine scent to flood Rong Yue’s nostrils while his voice blew past her hair, allowing her heart to thump wildly from all of that proximity.

She turned her head to look at him and her eyes met with his curious and suspicious ones. In truth, she was not surprised that he asked, after all, he knew that there was no such uncle.

But Rong Yue had just one plan, to glide over it completely!

One had to give it to Qin Yichen’s brain that it was well developed. After all, Rong Yue had indeed only taken over the arcade center three months ago which was exactly three months after they had opened.

While trying to buy some new parts, she had seen a large number of game equipment on sale and were still very new. More importantly the person had claimed that it was right here in China which made her curious.

Later on, their country would become one of the biggest manufacturing bases for a lot of company and would even advance beyond what the world imagined. But at this time of her rebirth, if there was such gadgets in the country built through cheaper labor, everything would be sent out.

As someone interested in the gaming industry, she had made further inquiries from the company and realized that it was a brand that wasn’t even in China which meant it had been shipped in.

When she asked to see the goods, the man had given her the location of this arcade center!

She hadn’t paid a visit and eventually used only video calls and the trusted intermediary which was manager Bai to buy the whole place from the man.

After then, she had carefully drafted a marketing plan and also tweaked the running codes that were set up for most of the games consoles.

In truth, this had been her own first time of coming too and had always used it as a last minute decision. However, she was surprised by how well he had handled it and how good the business was going.

But all of these, she definitely couldn’t tell Qin Yichen because in this life, she felt that some matters would only be kept in her own heart. Never to be told to anyone.

And if she did decide to tell someone, she would only share some parts and not everything!

After gazing into her eyes for a full one minute and seeing her determination and evasion, Qin Yichen sighed and gave up.

“It’s okay, you don’t have to say anything.”

He turned away, breaking the eye contact, after all, even if he had sounded like it was totally okay, deep down, he knew that he really wanted her to share up and tell him things.

It was like constantly being around someone but regularly realizing that there was so many things and part of the person life that one still didn’t know.
