"He spent another two hours with me that night."
"But you seem to be full of energy."
Xia Yu blinked.
His tone was somewhat smug.
"Perhaps I have a special talent."
Alicia patted his arm in an annoyed tone and said.
"Okay, okay, you win, alright?"
But inwardly, he was secretly alarmed.
As expected, her earlier idea of bringing Seele into the picture was correct.
How could she possibly satisfy Xia Yu on her own?
Fortunately, Eden has now come along to help her share the burden.
Alicia yawned.
She did a lot of things today, and didn't sleep well on the plane.
At this moment, a sense of drowsiness naturally arose.
She asked weakly, barely managing to stay conscious.
"But Xia Yu, what are you and Eden planning to do?"
Xia Yu remained silent for a while.
She said she didn't want you to be sad because of the two of us.
"So I hope you can keep what happened this afternoon a secret and not tell anyone."
"She'll act like nothing happened."
Alicia continued to ask.
Do you think she'll be happy?
Xia Yu shook his head with a wry smile.
"I'm not Eden, how would I know?"
"If someone doesn't want to talk to me, I can't just force myself on them and pester them."
"Won't that just make people more annoyed?"
Alicia immediately retorted.
"No way, although I wouldn't dare say that Eden has romantic feelings for you."
"But she definitely doesn't hate you."
"After all, he whispers sweet nothings in her ear every night when he's with her as she sleeps."
"If she doesn't consider you a friend."
"I wouldn't send a lawyer's letter to warn them if their game was sabotaged by Tencent and Origin."
A look of surprise flashed across Xia Yu's face.
"I thought you were the one who did that."
Alicia pouted her rosy lips.
"They know Bronya can handle this problem."
"I plan to save the Golden Garden as a trump card until Xia Yu's husband can't solve it before going to Eden."
"Who knew she would step in and help out directly."
"But this is also good, at least there will be much less resistance for miHoYo's development later on."
Xia Yu nodded.
I have mixed feelings about this matter.
Many game companies know that miHoYo is backed by the behemoth that is Golden Garden, so they dare not cause them any trouble.
This allowed miHoYo to easily overcome the most difficult period of its early development.
Just for this point.
Next time, he can properly thank Eden.
Alicia continued.
"Sigh, Xia Yu, you don't know."
"Actually, Eden's childhood was quite miserable too."
"Although she was born into a wealthy and prestigious family that everyone envied."
"But in reality, the family's internal management is very strict. It is said that the number of days she can freely go out and play is very limited throughout the year."
"We are forced to undergo various etiquette training almost every day."
"I heard that she was never truly happy for a single day when she was a child."
"Even her uncle almost used Eden as a sacrifice for a marriage alliance with another family for business purposes."
"Later, Eden simply couldn't stand this kind of life anymore."
"I want to leave my family."
Fortunately... Eden's parents supported her decision.
"And so she came to live alone in this foreign land of China."
"Don't be fooled by her seemingly indifferent attitude towards everything."
"But actually she cherishes her friends very much."
"I won't tell you what kind of shady relationship you two have."
"Just consider the help she gave you through the Golden Garden earlier."
"You can't let her suffer any injustice."
These were indeed the first things Xia Yu had ever heard of.
However, the fact that the Golden Garden still receives aid from the Golden Clan suggests that...
At least Eden has a good relationship with her parents.
Otherwise, she wouldn't be able to hold concerts in various places abroad.
"Speak of it."
"Wasn't it you who instigated Eden's decision to live in China?"
Xia Yu also recalled something Alicia had mentioned before.
"What is meant by bewitching?"
"I was just giving her advice as a friend."
"It's as if I'm a bad guy who tricked people into coming here from other countries."
Alicia hummed twice in dissatisfaction.
"But!"
"Alice, I can understand that you said you wouldn't let Eden suffer any injustices on the premise that Eden likes me, right?"
"What if she doesn't like me?"
"What if she dislikes me if I go up to her?"
Hear the words.
Alicia was slightly taken aback.
She hadn't considered this possibility.
After all, based on her understanding of Eden.
There's a 95% chance that Eden definitely likes Xia Yu.
"Have it!"
“I have a way to prove that Eden likes you.”
"However, this matter can be handled gradually."
"I'll spend the next couple of days helping you two build a relationship."
"I'll have to trouble my husband Xia Yu to put on a show for me then."
A sly smile suddenly appeared on Alicia's face.
Even if Eden is shy at that time.
The three of them were also able to speak frankly and openly.
