Why are you all trying to win over me, the male supporting character?

The great deity has finally arrived!

"You're the perfume guru? Come, come, this way, please!"

Lu Chengzhou followed a pretty girl dressed like an elf into the competition area.

The other contestants are already engaged in mutual flattery.

Upon seeing Lu Chengzhou walk in, their mutual flattery paused briefly.

As everyone knows, this person is the swordsman player who got the first kill.

Furthermore, everyone vaguely knows that the organizers will provide five-star hotel accommodations, Ferrari chauffeured services, and bunny girl fruit and snacks, all because of this swordsman player.

It's fair to say he has incredibly powerful backing.

In his presence, any mutual flattery in business seems somewhat ridiculous.

They couldn't keep playing anymore.

The atmosphere inside the room became quite awkward at one point.

Before Lu Chengzhou could even sit down, he met Lin Chen's wide-open eyes, which were wide with shock.

"Holy crap, you're the one..."

Lin Chen was about to reveal Lu Chengzhou's game ID when he choked back.

In that instant, a brilliant idea popped into his head.

He took a deep breath and strode towards Lu Chengzhou.

Under Lu Chengzhou's bewildered gaze, he hooked his arm around Lu Chengzhou's neck and led him to the small, dark room backstage.

170. Keep it simple, keep your way of speaking simple.

The moment Lu Chengzhou entered the small dark room, he was on full alert.

He was worried that the male protagonist would suddenly have a brain fart, pull out a weapon, and kill him.

but,

After the male protagonist turned on the light, made him tea, and invited him to sit down, his guard gradually lowered.

It seems that saving the male lead's life and gaining him a lot of goodwill was quite effective.

The male lead, Lin Chen, showed considerable respect to the male supporting character.

"If I had known you were perfume, I wouldn't have spent 100,000 yuan to hire you."

Lin Chen immediately launched into a tirade of complaints.

"No wonder you haven't gone to the audience section! You made me waste a VIP ticket."

After making a couple of complaints, he reverted to his somewhat ingratiating tone.

"I said, can we try to negotiate some more?"

Lu Chengzhou took a sip of tea and put down the cup.

He glanced at Lin Chen, his eyes holding a thoughtful look.

Lin Chen continued, "I know you've always been low-key and don't like being famous."

"But I'm different from you. What I lack is reputation. I need to make all those lackeys at school respect me from the bottom of their hearts, and I also need to gain the approval of the person I love!"

"It's just a pity that my reputation and my wealth have never reached a level that can match it..."

This male lead truly lives up to his name; his way of speaking is unlike anyone else's.

It's convoluted, but also very insightful.

Unfortunately, Lu Chengzhou didn't buy into his argument.

Lu Chengzhou dislikes roundabout ways of speaking; he prefers direct communication.

Keep it simple~

Keep your way of speaking simple~

"Brother Lin, are you planning to ask me to play for you?"

……

This creates an awkward atmosphere.

In Lin Chen's plan, this sentence would not appear until at least five minutes later.

It's somewhat shameful to have someone else play for you.

However, he desperately needed to make a splash in this high-profile event.

If it weren't for the fact that Lu Chengzhou preferred woody fragrances, he would have already given up this chance to steal the spotlight.

After all, his gaming skills were far from being able to defeat the 24 gaming experts present.

Trying to bribe them into cooperating with the act would only ruin Comet Entertainment's reputation.

This is an open tournament that will be broadcast live across the entire internet!

If these players openly throw the game, and Lin Chen plays his usual game, the audience will only shout for RMN to refund the money!

Once your reputation is ruined, it will be difficult to organize such exploitative activities again.

So, are you going to help me?

Lin Chen hooked his arm around Lu Chengzhou's shoulder once again.

However, he was squatting, while Lu Chengzhou was sitting.

This pose looks really awkward...

Lu Chengzhou pondered that if he hadn't stepped in to help pull the male lead out of the water, the male lead probably wouldn't be using this questioning tone right now, but rather giving a command.

The responses to the male protagonist's requests and orders are completely different.

If it's an order, he'll most likely have no choice but to obey silently to avoid angering the male lead.

But now it's a request...

Lu Chengzhou decided to try and get some more benefits.

Taking advantage of a girl would make Lu Chengzhou feel guilty.

However, when it comes to taking advantage of men, the more the merrier.

"It's not that I don't want to help you, Brother Lin, it's just..."

"I understand, you need money."

Lin Chen was indeed very knowledgeable; he immediately took out a bank card and slapped it in front of Lu Chengzhou.

There is 50,000 yuan inside.

"Oh, Brother Lin, it's not about the money, it's that I really love the first prize souvenir from this competition."

As he spoke, Lu Chengzhou made a gesture of rubbing his fingers together to ask for money.

The implication is quite obvious.

Lin Chen took a deep breath and clenched his fists.

"Add another 50,000, and by the way, all the prizes for the first prize are yours."

This was once again Lin Chen's limit.

If Lu Chengzhou still doesn't agree, he'll have no choice but to write this grudge down in his little notebook!

However, it is clear that Lu Chengzhou is a person who knows how to behave appropriately.

He had already reached the other person's limit.

Lu Chengzhou smiled slightly: "Thank you, Brother Lin."

Why wouldn't I agree to a competition that offers a prize of 250,000 yuan and a bunch of valuable souvenirs in just two days?

Lu Chengzhou isn't a chuunibyou (a person with delusions of grandeur), and he doesn't really care much about game honors.

Money is the most important thing.

Although he has always adhered to the principle of keeping a low profile, it doesn't mean he won't take any opportunities that are offered to him.

He would never let go of a money-making opportunity that came his way.

……

After reaching an agreement, Lin Chen instructed the host to secretly carry out the plan.

"We regret to inform all warriors of some unfortunate news..."

"Due to some unforeseen circumstances, the player who prefers woody fragrances has withdrawn from the competition!"

"To express our apologies, we will provide a game gift pack and a private car service for the perfume fans who are here today."

This news caused a huge uproar as soon as it was broadcast.

The two Meng sisters were the most shocked.

Especially Sister Meng.

She came here, waited for so long, and invested over ten million in sponsorship, not just to see Lu Chengzhou withdraw from the competition!

There must be something wrong here.

She understood Ms. Lu's personality.

That's not someone who gives up easily.

unless……

They were coerced!

"I'll go backstage to check things out and see what the organizers are up to."

Just as Sister Meng was about to leave, her younger sister called her back.

Meng Wanyu made a shushing gesture.
