Chapter 102: Brother, You Look So Heavenly!

After giving them his advice, Mr. Big News seemed to accept it. After all, what Rayen said were considered reasonable.

They were currently participants in a show. The sponsors were investing on them. And so, as participants, they should sell themselves to the consumers which were the audience.

What was their prize for that?

Simple. They get to live again.

If they think that it was for a chance to live again, they should be willing to sell themselves and not be ashamed of what they were doing. It could be a pretty effective mindset.

At least, that was the case for Rayen.

Resuming with the practice, everyone gathered to dance again. Mr. Big News tried hard to do what Xu Jiji advised him while incorporating Rayen’s words.

The result? Somewhat, it was effective. Although Mr. Big News still struggled, at least, he wasn’t as stiff as earlier.

Rayen didn’t notice it right away, but his team skills had actually leveled up by one point after that.

When the afternoon approached, the team members all felt exhausted and slumped on the ground.

Suddenly, two phones buzzed simultaneously together. Rayen looked at the corner where they had placed all of their belongings.

Scrambling toward it, Rayen grabbed his phone and the other one, passing it to Minho.

On their screen, there was a message notification. It was from an old group chat they haven’t opened for a while.

[Binh: Are you guys on break now? Want to eat together?]

’Oh, it’s Binh.’

Rayen didn’t expect Binh to be the one to drop a message first because of the incident back then. Looking at Minho, Rayen silently asked if he would go.

To answer his question, Minho sent a message to the group.

[Minho: Save me a seat, bro.]

Shortly after, Renjiro also sent a message. These trio were together almost everyday whenever they had free time, so there was no need to think about it.

What’s just unusual was Binh’s approach this time. Usually, he would reach out to them via direct message.

Just then, Binh sent another message.

[Binh: I hope the others will come with us too. I want to tell you something over a meal ("Pretty Please" Plotter Sticker)]

Sighing, Rayen typed a response.

[I’ll come.]

Rayen might be somewhat dense, but he wasn’t entirely dumb. He was also the one to tell Binh he should apologize. The guy must have come to his senses and decided to have a talk now.

But it would be hard to get Yeo Haru to agree. Judging by that guy’s action, he would probably bounce right away.

So, to convince him, Rayen employed the same tactic as before. He sent a private message to Liam, pestering him to accept Binh’s invite.

After being overwhelmed by numerous buzzing noise from Rayen’s bombardment, Liam confirmed his presence on the group chat.

If Rayen wasn’t wrong, Yeo Haru would also come.

Even though the production crew hadn’t aired their conflicts before, that didn’t mean they wouldn’t. If Yeo Haru wouldn’t show up, he would be the only one out of the frame. Adding more clips to that issue might become more tempting for Plotter to release it.

[Yeo Haru: I’ll come too.]

And so, Rayen confirmed his thoughts about Yeo Haru. This guy really has experience with these kind of ploys.

’I wonder what kind of life he had before?’

Now that their afternoon meal appointment was set, Rayen and Minho told their current members their plans.

Xu Jiji couldn’t even care as he was napping by the corner. Mr. Big News was busy practicing his facial expressions, and Nana only nodded.

"Then, we’ll just bring you snacks," Minho said.

"Okay, thanks," Mr. Big News replied, pausing his practice briefly to turn to them.

When the two made it to the cafeteria, everyone was already there except for the one who invited them over.

Liam and Renjiro was as usual, staring at the air side by side. Yeo Haru waved at them with a smile, pretending as though this gathering had nothing to do with him.

"Hey, brother! How’s your... team?" Yeo Hau asked, trailing off with his last words.

The other two people beside Yeo Haru turned to him, their gazes strange. Rayen blinked in confusion but then realized.

He didn’t have to lower his head to look as he could already see himself with the Eye of the Beholder. But because he had gotten somewhat used to it, he thought everything was normal.

Yet, it wasn’t.

He was still wearing his stupid Cupid Costume, dazzling everyone with his Visual Charm.

"You... look so good, brother," Yeo Haru said.

"....."

Rayen was speechless at first, but after realizing that Yeo Haru had just given him a compliment, he enthusiastically took the seat before him.

"Tell me more," Rayen said.

"Eh?" Yeo Haru was puzzled by the sudden switch of Rayen’s persona. "What do you mean?"

Rayen’s lips twitched.

Does he have to spell it out directly?

Say, ’Compliment me more! The more detailed, the better.’

But he had no shame to do that! Even with the advise he told Mr. Big News earlier, directly begging for someone to compliment him still left him red as tomato.

Sigh.

"Nevermind." Rayen turned his hot face away from their prying gaze.

However, Liam spoke on his behalf. "I think he wanted you to compliment him more."

’!!!!!’

Rayen glared at Liam, but it was too late. He had told them already.

"Ah, so that’s it..." Yeo Haru exclaimed, giggling before flashing him a double thumbs-up. "Brother, you look so good! So heavenly! What are you wearing? Why do you seem sparkling today?"

With every compliment that left Yeo Haru’s mouth, Rayen’s face turned even redder.

"You’re blushing too much, you look so cute. What did you eat today? You don’t seem tired at all."

"Stop!" Rayen yelled.

"Oh, okay..." Yeo Haru said.

Sigh.

’It was a mistake to be here.’

Fanning his steaming face, Rayen refrained himself from checking if those compliments were counted to his mission.

To answer Yeo Haru’s question, though. He’s wearing Cupid’s Garment so that people would fall in love with him. He was sparkling because he’s overflowing with charm. He didn’t eat yet, but he downed a bottled water worth 1000 MC ’cause he’s currently rich.

Just then, the one who requested them to gather here also appeared.
