Chapter 119: Chang Yue's Love Story

At the Xuanyun Residence, in a room on the sixth floor.

Yun Xuan appeared clad in powered armor, the door firmly locked behind him. He glanced at the time—less than five hours had passed.

After stowing away the armor, Yun Xuan rubbed his temples, then took out his phone and called the production team of "Magical Girl Madoka," deciding to begin selecting voice actors tomorrow.

There was also the script for the Northern Grand Film, which he sent to An Rumo.

Additionally, the original manuscript for the comic "Northern-chan’s Daily Life" needed to be handed over to Chang Yue.

Having dealt with these tasks, Yun Xuan checked his public account, answered some questions to maintain activity, and glanced at the earnings from his responses. After deducting half, 1.53 million remained.

“Looks like it’s time to assemble a team to support impoverished areas,” Yun Xuan mused. His true identity would inevitably be exposed sooner or later.

After some thought, he called Ding Dang to notify him.

“Doesn’t this mean that Teacher Bei Fang’s identity will be made public?” Ding Dang exclaimed in surprise.

“Yeah, more or less. I’ll disguise myself. As for participants, there should be ten people. Will you arrange personnel to join?” Yun Xuan nodded, recalling the bionic mask he had. With that, a perfect disguise was possible.

“I’ll have to ask my superior, but I think I’ll go. Please save a spot for me,” Ding Dang hesitated.

“No problem. We’ll set the date for August 25. As for the location…” Yun Xuan and Ding Dang discussed for a while before ending the call.

...

At night, Yun Xuan went downstairs and saw Chang Yue, handing her the manuscript to complete the backgrounds. She was to fax it to Koukou Company.

“Um, boss, may I trouble you with something?” Chang Yue blushed.

“Go ahead, as long as I can help,” Yun Xuan smiled.

“Well...” Chang Yue’s face reddened as she revealed her matter.

“I see. No problem. Just have him come over—I promise to set up a candlelit dinner for you,” Yun Xuan said, surprised that a girl like Chang Yue would plan such a thing. Seeing her happy, he decided to assist her.

“Thank you, boss!” Chang Yue beamed and ran off to make a call.

...

Within half an hour, a handsome young man arrived at the Xuanyun Residence.

“Chang Yue... is there something urgent?” Guo Wenruo wiped sweat from his brow, panting slightly.

“Here, wipe your sweat,” Chang Yue stood and carefully dabbed his face with a handkerchief.

Guo Wenruo’s face flushed red, feeling embarrassed.

“Your order has arrived,” Yun Xuan entered pushing a serving cart, placing a cake on the table, along with other exquisite dishes and a bottle of red wine.

“Wenruo, have a seat. Today is your 19th birthday. Happy birthday,” Chang Yue said, pulling the stunned Guo Wenruo down.

“Enjoy your meal,” Yun Xuan smiled and left with Suwuyue Bai No.7 and No.8.

“Chang Yue... all this is for me?” Guo Wenruo stammered, cheeks burning.

“We’ve grown up together since childhood. From middle school, you began to distance yourself from me. Wenruo, don’t you understand my feelings?” Chang Yue’s voice was soft.

“But...” Guo Wenruo lowered his head. He had always liked Chang Yue, their childhood friendship blossomed into something deeper.

In middle school, Chang Yue excelled and later passed the Star-Moon Cup preliminaries, making him feel unworthy.

He often watched her quietly from afar, content just to admire her unseen.

Seeing Yun Xuan made Guo Wenruo feel that here was someone truly worthy of Chang Yue; he silently blessed her.

Just after receiving Chang Yue’s call, he didn’t hesitate to ride his bike over, even falling along the way.

“There’s no 'but.' Don’t you remember? When we were kids, you said you’d marry me—we pinky swore,” Chang Yue pouted, feigning anger.

“I... I’m not worthy of you,” Guo Wenruo whispered.

“Idiot! Don’t you plan to work hard? Don’t you know why I rejected everyone else?” Chang Yue’s eyes reddened as tears welled.

“Sorry, Chang... Yue’er,” Guo Wenruo’s nose twitched, calling her by the childhood nickname.

...

Yun Xuan watched from the window, raising a thumb in approval.

Indeed, Chang Yue was celebrating Guo Wenruo’s birthday and confessing her feelings.

The plan was a complete success. Observing Guo Wenruo, Yun Xuan had an idea: since he studied piano, the position at the Xuanyun Restaurant reserved for a pianist would suit him well.

The candlelight dinner continued until ten o’clock at night. By then, returning to the dormitory was impossible. Yun Xuan entered, informing that a room had been arranged.

“Also, I have a job for you. Would you be interested? Do you know Xuanyun Restaurant?” Yun Xuan took the opportunity to offer Guo Wenruo the pianist position.

“Can I... really?” Guo Wenruo looked worried.

“You can try out tomorrow with Chang Yue,” Yun Xuan smiled.

“Thank you, Boss Yun,” Guo Wenruo sighed in relief, grateful to Yun Xuan, the last trace of doubt vanishing.

Yun Xuan watched the two head upstairs. If it were him, they’d share a room tonight, but these two were too shy and requested separate rooms.

After closing the restaurant, Yun Xuan and the two Suwuyue Bai androids went up to the sixth floor. Of course, that meant two rooms as well; he wasn’t desperate enough to turn to androids for company just yet.

Back in his room, Yun Xuan immediately began selecting nine volunteers from his public account. Many had applied, but he ultimately chose nine familiar faces.

...

At dawn, Yun Xuan woke under the watchful eyes of Bai Xue and Bing Xue.

His eyes were bloodshot; evidently, he hadn’t slept well and had nightmares.

“It seems I still need a talisman or cultivation method from the fantasy world to calm my mind; otherwise, sleeping will remain a problem,” Yun Xuan muttered as he got up and dressed.

After breakfast at Qiuyi Tower, Yun Xuan greeted Yun Xuner and boarded a plane alone to Shangrao City.

The matter of Guo Wenruo was entrusted to Suwuyue Bai No.7, and Yun Xuan informed Yun Xuner.

On the plane, Yun Xuan read the "Magical Girl Madoka" comic, knowing that choosing voice actors and anime directors were entirely different tasks.

At ten in the morning, the plane landed at Shangrao City Airport.

Yun Xuan took a car to Purple Moon Animation Production Company, the largest animation studio in Shangrao City, responsible for the entire Magical Girl series.

“Teacher Yun Xuan, hello, I’m editor Yezi from team three, real name Xia Chengxin,” a pink-haired girl intercepted Yun Xuan.

“Ding dong, discovered a beauty with an overall rating of eight points.”

“Hello, I’m Yun Xuan,” he shook hands with the pink-haired cutie, awakening his inner lolicon.

“Please follow me. The voice actors have arrived, and we can start today,” Xia Chengxin said admiringly.

First place in the Star-Moon Cup, he must be the youngest, right?
