By then, Changpu had brought over Butterfree's Poké Ball.
Bai Xiyue had seen Jiang Xiaoyu use a Poké Ball before, so she didn't find it strange.
She eagerly took the Poké Ball, then looked at Qin Feng with expectant eyes. "How do I use it?"
A moment later, Bai Xiyue gazed at the adorable giant butterfly hovering in front of her, her maternal instincts clearly on the verge of overflowing.
Qin Feng went into the back and returned with an armful of Energy Blocks and a Pokédex.
"Since Miss Bai has become my shop's biggest spender, I've decided to give you these Energy Blocks and this Pokédex as a token of thanks."
Jiang Xiaoyu pouted and complained, "Qin Feng, we're classmates, at least! Why didn't you give me that much?"
Qin Feng rolled his eyes. "Spend thirty million yourself, and I'll give you even more. Want to try?"
Egg Yolk chimed in, "Pika-chu!"
❤(｡◕‿◕)ﾉﾟ･
Jiang Xiaoyu snorted. "Heartless. Both the big one and the little one care about nothing but money."
Qin Feng put away his smile. "Come on, let's get back to what we were discussing."
"These Energy Blocks are food for Pokémon, and they're essential for their growth and evolution."
"As trainers, you shouldn't just keep them as pets. You also need to learn how to train them for battle."
At the word "battle," the two beauties exchanged a glance and shook their heads in unison.
"Why would such adorable little babies need to fight? Has watching anime rotted your brain?"
As Bai Xiyue spoke, she stroked Butterfree's little head.
Butterfree lay in her arms with a blissful expression, nuzzling against her.
"Exactly! My Jigglypuff isn't going to fight. We're going to be ladies, aren't we, little Jiggly?"
Jiang Xiaoyu said this as she kissed the Jigglypuff in her arms.
(✾♛‿♛) "Jigglypuff, Jigglypuff."
Qin Feng pressed a hand to his forehead helplessly.
He had actually anticipated this situation.
After all, it was the Pokémon's appearance that had won them over in the first place.
But as creatures, Pokémon had a fighting spirit ingrained in their very bones.
And many Pokémon evolved when their determination was ignited in battle.
Trainers raised Pokémon and pursued the highest honors a trainer could earn.
That was the path they ought to follow.
It was just difficult for the women to understand that right now.
Qin Feng could only spread his hands helplessly. They probably wouldn't accept this until the system launched the Pokémon League.
Still, now that he had Bai Xiyue, a wealthy backer with such long, fair legs, he wouldn't have to worry about rich kids coming to spend money.
Completing the mission was just a matter of time.
What mattered now was filming videos to attract more attention.
"Well, ladies, I have an idea that isn't fully formed yet. I wonder if I should bring it up!" Qin Feng asked, rubbing his hands together.
Bai Xiyue continued playing with Butterfree without looking up.
She replied casually, "Then wait until it's fully formed."
Jiang Xiaoyu burst into laughter, shaking all over.
"Sister Xiyue's right. Tell us once you've thought it through."
Qin Feng's face darkened. He had a feeling that putting these two beauties together was nothing but trouble.
"Well, I'd like to shoot a short promotional video for the Pokémon. Do either of you know New Treasure Island... or Paradise of Ultimate Bliss?"
The moment he finished speaking, the two women exchanged a knowing glance.
Then they both turned to look at Changpu.
Finally, their peculiar gazes settled on Qin Feng.
And you still claim you're not a pervert?
Qin Feng steeled himself and stamped his foot.
His image was already ruined anyway.
Screw it!
He came right out and said:
"So... do you prefer JK uniforms, or..."
Suddenly, Bai Xiyue rapped him on the head with her knuckles.
"In your dreams."
Bai Xiyue didn't return to Magic City. Instead, she stayed on the top floor of the Garden Hotel in Jiangning.
She gazed adoringly at Butterfree in front of her.
She took out an Energy Block, held it in her palm, and said:
"Come on, say 'Mama,' and I'll let you eat it."
Butterfree chirped away, drool escaping despite all efforts to hold it back.
Bai Xiyue smiled dotingly, then placed the Energy Block into Butterfree's little claws.
She took out her phone, filmed a video, and posted it to her Moments.
Less than a minute after the video went up, the comments exploded.
"Yueyue, what's that thing? A kite?"
Bai Xiyue: "You're a kite. Your whole family's made of kites."
"Wow, that looks really nice! Where did you buy that toy?"
Bai Xiyue: "If you can't say anything sensible, shut up."
"Why can it eat? And why is it so cute? That defies science."
Bai Xiyue: "Because it's alive! My little Butterfree is the cutest."
"What? Alive?! Don't joke around. Where did you buy it? Send me the address."
Putting her phone away, Bai Xiyue propped her chin on one hand and smiled as she watched Butterfree gobble down the Energy Block.
"This advertising of mine is worth a fortune. I'll go shake him down for an advertising fee one of these days!"
That evening, in the boys' dorm.
Wang Lin was lying in bed scrolling through his phone when he suddenly shouted:
"Look! Look!"
Deng Jialiang heard the opening notes of Paradise of Ultimate Bliss.
He said dismissively, "The song might be right, but that doesn't mean it deserves my coins. I'm telling you, I can't even be bothered to look at average beauties anymore."
"It's Jiang Xiaoyu!" At Wang Lin's answer, Deng Jialiang lunged over so fast he nearly fell.
Qin Feng was showering at the time. Egg Yolk sprang up from his bed and jumped onto Deng Jialiang's shoulder.
"Pika pika~"
♡(๑◕ܫ￩๑)ﾉ✰
Deng Jialiang snatched the phone, and his eyes instantly went wide as he watched the video.
"It... it really is Jiang Xiaoyu! And that beauty who came to see Qin Feng today, and Pikachu! What's that butterfly? And that moving lump of cotton candy?"
In the video, Bai Xiyue, Jiang Xiaoyu, and the animal-eared Changpu wore JK uniforms as they danced to Paradise of Ultimate Bliss.
Beside them, the adorable Pokémon copied their movements, looking utterly cute.
"Then who filmed it?"
Both men immediately turned their eyes toward the bathroom.
"Has this guy been blessed with good fortune lately?" Wang Lin asked.
"Don't tell me he's been sucking up my luck because we share a dorm?"
As he spoke, Deng Jialiang shouted toward the bathroom, "Qin Feng, you shameless bastard! Give me back my luck!"
The video brought in over six million followers in just three hours.
Its likes shot past five million.
And the numbers were still climbing.
"Those legs... so sweet, so cute! I want one too."
"This is so unfair. Who could withstand that? Ah! I'm dead."
"Well, damn! I'll pay five million for those legs-no... for that yellow mouse."
"Absolutely amazing. Looking to buy the same butterfly, no price limit, cash on delivery. Chinese people don't scam Chinese people!"
"I'm coming clean. No more pretending! I admit it: I'm the one who filmed that video."
"Same rules as always: kidney failure patients up front, diabetics in the back. Piss on him and wake him up!"
