Chapter 287: What if Xie Zhaoyuan died?
"Brother Pei, the positive review rate of our Love Law internal beta has risen to 98.97%. Many potential players are urging us to release the public beta version as soon as possible. Do you want to tell everyone and work overtime to catch up with the progress during this period?"
The signal on Wuling Mountain was not very good, and the sound in the mobile phone receiver was always stuck, but it could not hide the excitement in Ye Ci's tone.
Pei Xingzhi squatted on the side of the road to catch his breath, wiping his glasses on his clothes while answering, "Don't worry. The law of love is our weapon to fight back. We must not just focus on speed and ignore quality because of the players' urging. This game determines whether we can stand up again. Every detail must be polished to perfection, and we strive to make sure that players cannot find any hard errors after the public beta."
"Besides, the demand for the Law of Love is too high right now. If we rush to release the public beta version, any problems that arise at that time may become a weapon that kills us. Since we have so many expectations on our shoulders, we must not let them down."
“Don’t put too much pressure on the studio staff, just let them follow the normal progress. But the daily progress details still need to be sent to me for review.”
"Hmm..." Ye Ci was convinced by Pei Xingzhi's words, and his voice was full of admiration, "Brother Pei is really thoughtful. Unlike me, I will be so proud once I get a taste of the sweetness!"
"No wonder my mom always says I won't achieve anything great in my life."
"Hmph..." Pei Xingzhi laughed softly, "You are still young, and you can slowly develop your experience and mentality. There is no need to rush. By the way, how are you doing with Yu Xingwang's matter?"
When Yu Xingwang was mentioned, Ye Ci's tone instantly became serious: "We have captured him and are preparing to interrogate him. We expect to know the exact address of the villa in a few hours."
Pei Xingzhi: "Yes. You should pay attention to the time. Uncle Chen is probably going to look for him soon."
Ye Ci: "Don't worry, Brother Pei, we have a firm grasp on Yu Xingwang. As long as those things are revealed, he won't dare not confess, let alone reveal a single word to the task force!"
"Okay." Pei Xingzhi put his glasses back on and stood up, propping himself up on his knees. "That's it. Call me if there's anything else."
Ye Ci: "Okay, goodbye, Brother Pei."
Pei Xingzhi: "Goodbye."
"Are you done fighting?" Shen Yanhui handed him a bottle of water.
He put his cell phone into the pocket of his jacket, zipped it up, and then took the water from Shen Yan's hand.
"Thank you." He said politely.
Shen Yanhui shook his head, unscrewed the bottle cap and drank a sip of ice-cold mineral water: "Is everything okay with Yu Xingwang?"
Pei Xingzhi: "No problem. If nothing unexpected happens, we will know Ayuan's exact location in a few hours."
Shen Yanhui finished drinking the water and slowly screwed the cap back on: "Qin Wushuang was called to Jingcheng by the task force. If we can find Zhao Yuan before he comes back, things will be much easier."
The fog on the mountain was a bit heavy. Pei Xingzhi's glasses had just been wiped clean for less than two minutes when they were immediately covered with a hazy thin layer of frost.
He narrowed his eyes slightly under the cover of frost and whispered: "I've been thinking about this too. If we can find Ayuan's location before Qin Wushuang comes back, everything will be much simpler."
"But I'm afraid it won't be such a coincidence."
"Eh..." Shen Yanhui sighed, he was so tired that he didn't know what to say.
"How long will it take for Lin Jiahe to come back?" She looked around with her head tilted back. "Didn't you say you were going to use the toilet? You still haven't found it yet?"
"Almost there." Pei Xingzhi put the bottle of mineral water into his pocket, picked up the hiking stick at his feet and continued to walk up. "He just sent me a message saying he would be back in five minutes. Let's go first, he will follow in a while."
Shen Yan replied with an "eh" and lazily followed Pei Xingzhi, dragging his sore legs.
"We have almost walked through the entire hilltop, but we haven't found anything. Oh... I hope Ye Ci can move faster. It's a waste of time and effort to keep searching like looking for a needle in a haystack."
Pei Xingzhi: "In fact, our trip this time is not entirely to explore the location of the villa, but more to familiarize ourselves with the terrain and route. Once the location of the villa is exposed, Uncle Chen will naturally bring people to rescue Ayuan. As for Qin Wushuang, it will be left to me."
Upon hearing this, Shen Yanhui raised his eyebrows in surprise: "Pei Xingzhi, you want to..."
[Hehe, five minutes left.] 】
The system's voice suddenly rang in his mind, interrupting Shen Yanhui's words before he could finish them.
Shen Yanhui frowned and was about to ask the system what was going on when her eyes suddenly felt dizzy! Then, he lost consciousness.
"What do I want?" Pei Xingzhi asked with a smile.
“…”
Shen Yanhui did not answer.
She opened her eyes woodenly and quickened her pace to walk to Pei Xingzhi's side.
"Pei Xingzhi, I want to ask you a question." She said in a weak voice.
Pei Xingzhi glanced at her sideways, but didn't notice anything wrong: "What's the problem?"
Shen Yan replied: "If, I mean if, if Zhao Yuan doesn't come back or something unexpected happens, what will you do?"
"...What?" Pei Xingzhi frowned, a little annoyed by Shen Yanhui's question.
Shen Yanhui grinned and smiled stiffly: "Let me ask you, if Zhao Yuan can't come back, or if something unexpected happens on the way, what will you do then?"
She seemed not to notice Pei Xingzhi's expression at all. She was still smiling when she repeated the question, looking like she really wanted a beating.
Pei Xingzhi's face darkened, and he stared at her unhappily: "...Why do you suddenly ask this?"
Shen Yan looked forward with a dull look in his eyes: "No reason, I just asked casually, out of curiosity."
Pei Xingzhi: "Don't be curious, this question will never come up."
"...Oh." Shen Yan pouted, a little disappointed with Pei Xingzhi's reaction.
"Pei Xingzhi, if Zhao Yuan can't come back, or doesn't want to come back, do you plan to find another mother for Xiang Xiang who loves him?"
As if unwilling to give up, Shen Yanhui asked the question again from a different angle.
Pei Xingzhi's face turned completely black, and his tone was filled with a deep chill.
"Shen Yanhui, you've gone too far!" he warned sternly.
"How is that too much?" Shen Yanhui was still looking ahead, his expression and eyes revealing obvious weirdness.
"Isn't it a normal question I asked? You are still so young. You must make plans early."
