Chapter 932 I Don't Want to Hear
This was a difficult decision for Shen Boyan, and also a test for Tao Yang and Sun Miao.
If this project succeeds, they will be able to work independently even if he is not in the company in the future.
Although Shen Boyan did not ask Tao Yang about the game, he had been paying close attention to the game's progress since the afternoon.
Tao Yang and his team created an account on Weibo to notify players of various game updates and events.
Although there aren't many beta testers, the game is very popular. On Weibo, players are discussing the game's art style, storyline, and character design the most.
These are the points that players are most concerned about in otome games.
Shen Boyan read many related posts and, in general, there were no major problems. Apart from the initial reports of page lag and delays, everything else went smoothly.
Although there were a few posts complaining, they were not serious.
Nothing can be perfect. Even the most popular games today are still subject to constant criticism from players.
Moreover, being criticized isn't all bad; it helps identify areas for improvement in the game and keeps it popular.
Shen Boyan looked at it for a while longer, then closed the computer.
The moon was bright and the stars were few outside. He pressed his temples, got up, walked out of the room, and went downstairs.
He went to the kitchen to pour a glass of water, and just as he turned around, he saw Shen Zhongting coming downstairs.
"Boyan, you're still awake?"
Shen Boyan said, "I can't sleep."
Shen Zhongting was wearing pajamas, his face showing undisguised fatigue. "You've worked hard these past two days, taking care of Dad. I'll finish up the company business as soon as possible, then you can get some rest."
Shen Zhongting was considerate of Shen Boyan, but he forgot about himself. These past few days, he had not only been busy dealing with the Shen family's affairs, but also taking care of his own company overseas. He was overwhelmed and far more tired than Shen Boyan.
Shen Boyan saw his hard work. In fact, Shen Zhongting and Shen Congyan would prefer him to manage the company, and Shen Congyao's affairs should be left to Shen Zhongting.
However, Shen Boyan refused.
Shen Zhong understood that even if Shen Boyan returned, he still had a knot in his heart, and he found it difficult to accept everything about the Shen family.
Therefore, Shen Zhongting did not force Shen Boyan. Although Shen Boyan would not accept it now, he had already made a change by coming back, and perhaps he would gradually accept it in the future.
Shen Boyan hesitated for a moment, put down his cup, turned around and went to the kitchen to pour Shen Zhongting another cup of water.
Shen Zhongting was stunned for a moment before taking the water from his hand.
"How's your company in Chongqing doing?"
Shen Boyan shook his head. "I don't know."
Shen Zhong frowned suspiciously, but then, as if he understood something, he sighed, "I'm sorry to have troubled you."
Shen Boyan remained calm; he knew what Shen Zhongting was sighing about.
He felt sorry for Shen Boyan for giving up the company in Chongqing, after all, he knew very well how important that company was to Shen Boyan.
"I'm going to sleep now, you should get some rest too." Shen Boyan turned and went upstairs.
Shen Zhongting watched his retreating figure, a complex emotion welling up in his eyes.
It's not true that he can't stay in China for too long; if Shen Congyao's condition stabilizes, he will have to fly back to China immediately.
But his departure meant that everything in the Shen family would fall on Shen Boyan's shoulders.
Shen Zhongting wondered if Shen Boyan would still be willing to stay in the Shen family by then.
...
After being scolded by Qin Liang, Qin Ji did not return. Wang Yu called him several times, but he did not answer.
Finally, after much difficulty, the call was answered. Qin Ji's tone on the phone was very unpleasant, "Why are you still calling me! My dad has already disowned me as his son!"
Wang Yu frowned and said, "How old are you? Can't you be a little more mature when things happen? How can you expect others to respect you if you join the Qin family like this?"
"Qin's! Qin's! I've tried everything to get into Qin's, but those old men at the company look down on me. Now even my dad is looking down on me and is practically saying he doesn't recognize me as his son anymore. Mom, do you think I'm still qualified to get into Qin's?"
Wang Yu pressed her temples to calm herself down. "I've told you before, be more careful with your words and actions, don't be so impulsive. It's one thing for your sister to be willful because she's young, but are you young too?"
Wang Yu talked to Qin Ji on the phone for a while, and in order to trick him into coming back, she deliberately said that Qin Liang was not at home, and that she had already thought of a way to get Qin Liang to forgive him.
Qin Ji returned the next day as expected, but his face was still very pale. He had been scolded badly by Qin Liang that day, and the servants in the house had all heard it, which made Qin Ji feel extremely ashamed.
Fortunately, Qiao Xing and Qin Ce took Grandpa Qin to the hospital today, and apart from Wang Yu, there was no one else at home.
Wang Yu called him into the bedroom, and seeing his lifeless expression, she felt angry.
"I told you beforehand to plan carefully before doing anything, and not to act rashly. I finally managed to smooth things over with your dad last time, and look at what you've done in just two days."
Qin Ji's expression furrowed, her face full of impatience. "Mom, if you called me back just to say this, then don't say anything more. I don't want to hear it!"
Wang Yu was so angry that she wanted to grab Qin Ji's ear.
She has always groomed Qin Ji to be the heir, and has played the role of a "virtuous wife and loving mother" in the Qin family for so many years, just to make others think that the child she raised would not be bad.
However, Qin Ji was a disappointment. He was not tactful enough in dealing with people or in handling affairs, and he couldn't keep anything to himself.
“I know you’re afraid of the rumors going around, but I’ve already told you that they’re just things people are spreading and I told you not to take them to heart, but you just won’t listen.”
"How can I not be afraid? You yourself said that my dad's attitude towards Qin Ce is different now, and Qiao Xing's child is about to be born. What if my dad really has the idea of letting her child inherit the estate? What am I going to do?"
Qin Ji wasn't worried about this issue before, but with the increasing rumors circulating these past few days, he can't help but feel concerned.
But Wang Yu said, "We don't even know if she'll have a son or a daughter, so don't worry unnecessarily. Besides, even if your father had that idea, I would never agree to it."
"But even if you can convince my dad, what about the old man? Don't forget, he treats Qiao Xing like his own daughter. Not to mention the Qin family, he might even give the entire Qin family to his great-grandson. At that time, not only you, but even my dad won't be able to make the old man's decision."
Wang Yu said solemnly, "I know that. The old man returned to the capital this time not only for medical treatment, but also to take this opportunity to ease the relationship between your father and Qin Ce. Moreover, if you want to join Qin's Group later, the old man may not agree."
