They don't actually think I like them, do they?

"Is it done?"

The girl ran to Lin Han's side, snuggled against his arm, and said in a slightly coquettish tone,

"Actually, it's not that I want it; I'm asking for someone else."

Lin Han's eyes widened even more.

"who???"

.......

"Orange, I got your WeChat account back!"

As soon as Mangzi stepped into the room, he proudly raised his phone.

Orange, who was putting on makeup, immediately lit up and pounced on him.

"Give it to me quickly!"

"Call me Dad!!"

"Father, Father!!"

After some back and forth, Orange finally managed to get WeChat from Mangzi and then nervously sent a friend request.

Peach, who was sprawled on the sofa, revealed a gossipy expression and chuckled.

"Hey~ Why did Sister Orange add Xu Hui on WeChat? Could it be that she's interested in him?"

Pingzi, engrossed in her game, didn't even look up, her little mouth still full of a lollipop, as she echoed.

"I bet it was love at first sight when we filmed the music video last time."

"I...I didn't!" Orange shouted.

"I just think he's quite interesting..." Then, her voice trailed off.

Suddenly, Chengzi recalled that time.

Suddenly losing his mind, Xu Hui roared and charged toward himself under the streetlight.

Just as the lamppost was about to hit him, Xu Hui punched it instead, then knelt down in front of it and burst into tears.

At that time, Orange was filled with curiosity about this gloomy, seemingly dull and silly boy.

"Tsk tsk tsk, Orange, such a single-minded, love-idiot, actually wants to chat with someone? I can't even imagine it!" Pingzi said.

AWM lives in two separate apartments: Mangzi and Taozi share one room, while Pingzi and Chengzi share another.

As the person who knows Orange best, all Pingzi can do is make sarcastic remarks!

"I just want to get to know him!" Orange said seriously.

"Ding-dong-"

Just then, Orange's phone rang.

"ah."

Orange murmured,

"Passed."

Upon hearing this, the girls who were doing their own things, such as putting on makeup and playing games, all suddenly appeared behind Orange.

Soon, Xu Hui sent a message:

"you are?"

The girls immediately became excited.

"Quickly, tell him your full name!"

"No! I think we can be a little mysterious. You can say, 'The Orange you met that day'~"

"Why not just say 'the cutest girl in the world'? That will make him think you're funny and adorable! It'll instantly close the distance between you."

Orange's face darkened, and she glared at her sisters.

They were just making sarcastic remarks, and now they're all acting as strategists!

However, Orange isn't very good at chatting with others. And it's not just Orange; many idols are like that.

Perhaps because of the glamorous image of idols, many people assume that idols have a strong social circle. However, in reality, idols have an extremely limited social circle, and their companies don't allow them to meet random people.

I usually only have contact with people from work and fans. Interacting with these people is quite easy for me.

But if the goal is to make friends with someone you don't know well, Orange really doesn't know how to start a conversation.

After thinking for a long time, Orange decided to follow Mangzi's advice. After all, Mangzi had many friends, and trusting her was probably the right thing to do.

Orange carefully typed in each character one by one, and then sent it:

"The world's cutest girl."　

After sending it, the other party replied after a while:

"Bullshit! The world's cutest girl is Yan Yuli! What kind of bastard are you?!"

035. Is he crazy?!

Upon seeing this message, Orange's expression froze instantly.

The girls understood perfectly what this meant and immediately dispersed. In the blink of an eye, everyone was back in their seats, some playing games, others putting on makeup, as if what had just happened had nothing to do with them...

These cunning strategists are all incredibly enthusiastic when they're offering advice, and they're all eager to see more drama unfold.

When something happens, they'll run faster than anyone else!

"Come back here, all of you!!" Orange shouted angrily.

All the girls immediately and sensibly returned to their places.

"Calm down, Orange Sister!" Peach, covered in sweat, fanned Orange from the side.

“That’s right, don’t bother with this guy.” Pingzi chimed in from behind.

The reason everyone was so nervous was because they all knew how serious the consequences could be when Orange got angry!

In AWM, Orange has the worst temper and is the least tolerant of others.

She would confront someone who secretly photographed her on the street and complain for half an hour, or argue with a restaurant owner until he knelt down and kowtowed in apology because she found hair in her food!

"It's all over, Xu Hui is doomed!" Taozi exclaimed in despair.

"Is he out of his mind? He's definitely out of his mind!" Mangzi exclaimed in horror. "Chengzi, you'd better run! Anyone who thinks that little bitch Yan Yuli is pretty must have something wrong with their head!"

"Mangzi's actions are somewhat driven by personal grudges," Pingzi said, biting off her lollipop.

Everyone was talking at once, and finally, Orange couldn't take it anymore.

"No way, is he crazy?!" Orange cried out in grievance, "If he likes Yan Yuli so much, why doesn't he go and talk to her?!"

Orange racked her brains but couldn't understand how such words could come out of a human's mouth!

The more the girl thought about it, the more wronged she felt.

"Am I really less attractive than Yan Yuli?!"

Upon hearing this, all the girls were terrified once again.

When people hear that, they'll just think Xu Hui is a hopeless idiot.

Why did Orange actually take it so seriously after listening to that?!

She was so angry she lost her mind!

"How could that be! Sister Orange is just as beautiful as Yan Yuli! And she has a better temperament!" Peach exclaimed.

"Never mind, Sister Chengzi, I've met Xu Hui before, and he's had mental issues for a long time," Mangzi comforted her.

"..."

The atmosphere suddenly froze, and an eerie silence descended upon the air.

Orange stared blankly at the chat history, and it took her a long time to calm down.

After thinking about it carefully, I realized that I was the one who jokingly said "the world's most beautiful girl" first.

So, is it possible that the other person was joking?

The probability is very high.

I acted too impulsively in the first place; I should have calmed down and thought things through!

After figuring this out, Orange took a deep breath.

A second message was sent to Xu Hui:

"I'm Orange from AWM, hello."

After successfully sending the message, Orange felt much better. This time, she would give an honest introduction, and there shouldn't be any problems.

at the same time.

Upon receiving the message, Xu Hui's eyes immediately narrowed into slits.

"Huh? Orange? Add me???"

Xu Hui was immediately delighted. The esteemed Orange had added him on WeChat and even greeted him with "Hello."

That's hilarious! These days, scammers really dare to exaggerate!

A while later, Orange's phone rang.

All the girls rushed over, their nerves on edge.

I opened my phone and received a message from Xu Hui:

"Idiot, if you're an orange, then I'm the Qin Emperor."

"????"

Orange couldn't hold back any longer. She picked up her phone, pressed the voice call button, and talked non-stop for three minutes.

Then, a voice message was sent.

[Xu Hui has enabled friend verification. You are not yet his/her friend. Please send a friend request first. You can chat only after the other party accepts the request.]

Orange's eyes lost their shine.

The girl's expression was blank, like a body whose soul had been drained.

The girls all stood up, patted Orange on the shoulder, their expressions serious, and then dispersed. This time, the girls didn't try to persuade her. Orange was left alone, sitting in a chair, lost in thought.

late at night.

The night was still and cloudless, the stars were bright and the moon was shining. All things rested, and the entire city fell into slumber.

In the room, Orange suddenly sat up in bed.

"No way, is he crazy?!"

......

During the time Lin Han was preparing for AK47's debut, he also took on side businesses to earn more money.

First, some good news: there has been a breakthrough in the anime adaptation of "Saekano: How to Raise a Boring Girlfriend".

After being amazed by Lin Han's stunning character design and artwork, the production team learned from their mistakes and re-examined the original work, further resolving to make "Saekano: How to Raise a Boring Girlfriend" the best anime in the world.

Subsequently, at the board meeting, team leader Hanako successfully persuaded the directors to believe that "Saekano: How to Raise a Boring Girlfriend" was a product capable of creating miracles. The uncle, in particular, expressed his willingness to provide strong support.

As a result, the production team of "Passerby" not only received tens of millions of yuan in funding from the company, but also had many animation production teams from other departments assigned to "Passerby".

All for the sake of speeding up, speeding up, and fucking speeding up!

At this rate, it shouldn't be long before Lin Han sees "Saekano: The Rise of a Nobody" officially premiere.

Another piece of good news is that Re:Zero has sold over three million copies!

JC Light Novel Club recently received over a thousand letters urging updates for "Re:Zero," with some even containing razor blades!

Although it wasn't good news for JC Light Novel Club, for Lin Han, the success of Re:Zero was beyond his expectations!

Lin Han's initial intention in creating *Re:Zero* was more to annoy light novel readers and boost their "brokenness index." It might have been a minor hit, but he never expected it to achieve such widespread popularity.
