Shen Wuye glanced at Chu Hanchen with a cold smile: "Maybe what she said is true, maybe she really has the ability to make up for your so-called 'bankruptcy' deficit?"
Shen Wuye knew Bai Yan's abilities all too well.
Chu Hanchen sneered, "Uncle, don't joke like that."
He lay on the hospital bed, looking like he was in complete control: "Let me play a little longer."
"I thought I'd expose her materialistic nature at the last minute and let her know my true identity." After all, he wasn't some rich young master with millions in assets.
Chu Hanchen had dealt with these gold-digging women before, and every time he saw the regretful and annoyed expressions on their faces, he felt incredibly satisfied.
Out of consideration for his nephew, Shen Wuye still reminded him, "Girls who work in bars aren't necessarily bad girls."
"But to say it's simple is not necessarily true."
Chu Hanchen was quite annoyed. "Uncle, I'm not stupid. I know what kind of person Yu Rou is. You don't need to tell me these things."
He was most annoyed by Shen Wuye's controlling manner, and he also hated it when people compared him to this uncle who was nine years older than him—Shen Wuye was better than him in every way, except that he was born into the Shen family and was naturally a step above him.
If given the right platform, he might not be inferior to Shen Wuye!
Seeing his impatient expression, Shen Wuye gently curled his lips and said, "Okay."
That's the extent of his conscience as the uncle.
Shen Wuye left the hospital and had just gotten into his car.
Assistant Li, sitting in the driver's seat, glanced at him hesitantly, clearly wanting to say something but holding back.
"What do you want to say?" Shen Wuye asked.
"Boss, everyone has witnessed Bai Yan's abilities this month." To put it bluntly, Bai Yan could easily become the backbone of a game company, no matter where she went. "If we let Young Master Chu deceive her like this, and Bai Yan finds out in the end, I'm afraid..."
Shen Wuye frowned, and for a moment he couldn't help but curse Chu Hanchen, that little beast... It would be fine if it were an outsider, but it was his own nephew!
What if I tell her the truth, and she really loves Chu Hanchen so much that she turns her love into hatred and doesn't even want to see him anymore?
"I know, let me think about it some more."
Shen Wuye thought about it all night, tossing and turning all night but still couldn't figure it out.
...
The next day, Bai Yan upgraded her equipment and dressed elegantly as she arrived at her workstation.
Thanks to Liu Guosheng for taking away a large number of incompetent people, most of those who remain in the Rimu Technical Department are hard-working and don't know how to cheat, so they weren't valued by Liu Guosheng and Manager Wang before.
"Bai Gong looks really good today..."
"How come she's so good at programming, yet still has so much hair?" A bald programmer touched the top of his head.
"Hey, Bai Gong is skilled, but she's young. Lao Liu, how old are you? Comparing yourself to a young girl."
Old Liu looked up, feeling incredibly wronged, and said, "I'm a post-2000s kid!"
The game is scheduled to launch tomorrow. The rest of the technical department can handle it. Bai Yan and Chen Wuye need to discuss and finalize the launch process, including which mobile platform it will be on and how the game will be operated and charged. All of these will be finalized today.
Shen Wuye had been sitting in his office waiting for her for quite a while, and Assistant Li had also placed several game operators he had selected in front of her.
His gaze fell on Bai Yan's straight legs as she walked, then he looked up at her dress, which had a slightly open bodice that gave it a touch of allure. As Assistant Li spoke, her long, curly hair would occasionally fall down...
Shen Wuye lowered his eyes, and after not looking at her again, he instantly returned to his work mode.
Assistant Li said, "These are currently the top ten game operators in China, and only these three are willing to put our game on their homepage."
"However, the cost is not low."
It's no longer the era where good wine needs no bush. Even the best products need exposure, otherwise players won't even know about them, and how will they play the game?
Bai Yan thought for a moment and said, "Actually, besides operators, we can also do game promotion in other ways. Our game is aimed at young people, so we can try places like BL sites."
The meeting lasted about two hours.
Bai Yan, her mouth dry, turned to go out to get herself a cup of coffee, only to see Shen Wuye yawning while covering his mouth.
"President Shen, did you not sleep well last night?" Bai Yan asked.
He didn't just not sleep well, he practically didn't sleep at all. Luckily, his features are naturally deep-set, so he didn't look tired or worn out after staying up all night.
"I'm going to get coffee, can I get you a cup too?" Bai Yan looked at him.
Shen Wuye hesitated for a moment, then stood up from his chair: "I'll go with you."
Bai Yan gently smiled and said, "Okay."
Shen Wuye likes to wear dark black suits, exquisite ties, shiny leather shoes, and a perpetually cold and stern face when he is not speaking. He is indeed handsome, but because of this aura that keeps strangers at bay, he cannot be the kind of approachable CEO.
"Why is President Shen in the staff coffee room?" some employees whispered among themselves.
"President Shen is so handsome. I wish he smiled more often. I don't even dare to look at him..."
The two approached the coffee shop, and the employees dispersed.
"Mr. Shen, would you like some sugar?" Bai Yan turned to ask Shen Wuye, who shook his head.
Bai Yan took the coffee for herself and handed another cup to Shen Wuye. "President Shen, let's go outside. If you stay here, they probably won't dare to come in."
Shen Wuye glanced at the crowd far away from him while holding his coffee, and said calmly, "Okay."
"Didn't you sleep well last night, Mr. Shen? Were you worried about the game's release not going smoothly?" Bai Yan asked.
Of course not.
Before Shen Wuye could speak, Bai Yan had already moved closer to him. She was wearing high heels and was almost a head shorter than him. At such close range, Shen Wuye could smell the faint scent of her perfume and see her delicate and beautiful features.
He felt something was off; his tie seemed a little tight today.
“President Shen, when we first met, I was taking a gamble,” Bai Yan said. “There probably isn’t anyone in the world like President Shen who would dare to put someone like me, a recent graduate with no achievements, in charge of the project.”
"You are my mentor, and even if I win, I won't let you lose," Bai Yan said with a smile. "Do you believe me?"
Shen Wuye looked at her and said, "I believe you."
Bai Yan looked at him and smiled. Shen Wuye felt his steady heart beating faster and faster, as if... he really liked her, and after falling in love at first sight, he liked her more and more.
He opened his mouth, about to say something, but Bai Yan suddenly said, "President Chen, if I may ask, now that the game has been successfully launched, will my bonus be paid out as soon as possible?"
She seemed somewhat reluctant to speak.
Shen Wuye's rapidly beating heart turned cold: "You're short of money?"
Bai Yan said, "My boyfriend's family went bankrupt, and he's under a lot of pressure. I want to help him pay off his debts as soon as possible."
Shen Wuye remained silent. Bai Yan waited for a while and then asked, "President Shen?"
"Oh, according to the procedure, it will be distributed within one quarter of the game's release," Shen Wuye said expressionlessly.
