Thinking of this, Zhou Yuan snorted coldly and shouted loudly outside, "What's there to envy! Don't you guys watch the news?"
"The Shen family is about to go bankrupt, and Shen Wuye is about to go bankrupt!"
Once their new game 'Final Battle' is launched, the Chu and Shen families, along with Fengyun's internal personnel, will work together to overwhelm Shen Wuye, even with eight arms.
The buzzing outside stopped for a while, but Zhou Yuan's smile hadn't yet materialized.
"It's not going to close down, it's not! That house is real! It's a big villa in Shengjing Garden. The news said that a house there sold for over 20 million!"
"That's just an ordinary house. Haven't you heard? That boss gave Bai Yan a huge villa, guaranteed to be worth over a hundred million!"
Zhou Yuan's mood, which had just started to improve, plummeted again. He couldn't tell anyone else, but he felt like he was talking to his mother, or perhaps reassuring himself: "Mom, don't worry, as soon as our company's game is released, I'll earn a hundred times more than Bai Yan!"
Aunt Zhou's smile was sour it was like a bitter gourd... Who wouldn't be jealous when a big villa falls from the sky?
...
Bai Yan and her mother waved goodbye and left, leaving behind only the legend of luxury cars and US dollars in the old neighborhood.
The bodyguards helped carry Bai's mother's belongings into the villa. Bai's mother thanked them warmly and invited them to stay for dinner. Unable to resist Bai's mother's hospitality, everyone gathered around the villa's dining table for a hot pot meal.
In her earlier years, Bai's mother had done many odd jobs, including cooking the broth in a hot pot restaurant. The aroma would instantly rise as soon as the hot pot soup was poured on.
Bai's mother wasn't usually a talkative person, but she was so happy today that she couldn't help but open up.
Shen Wuye kept him company, drinking and talking to him, not daring to relax for a moment.
He couldn't handle spicy food very well, yet he kept eating spicy hot pot with Bai's mother. Seeing the layers of sweat rising on Shen Wuye's forehead, Bai Yan finally smiled and shook her head, inviting Shen Wuye to go to the garden to enjoy the scenery.
Shen Wuye breathed a sigh of relief, but did not immediately agree. Instead, he glanced at Bai's mother.
Bai's mother didn't think much of it: "Look, I forgot! Xiao Yan, why don't you show your boss around? This garden is huge!"
He then smiled and said to the bodyguards who were still eating, "You guys eat, I'll go get you some more meat."
Bai Yan and Shen Wuye walked to the garden's long corridor.
The villa's garden promenade is equipped with a temperature-controlled system, keeping it spring-like all year round, and the fallen violets on the promenade emit a charming fragrance.
Bai Yan gently picked a flower, smelled it, and then smiled.
She was beautiful, holding a beautiful and mysterious flower in the night sky and gently smelling it. As Shen Wuye watched her, he felt his heart pounding again.
"Thank you, Mr. Shen." Bai Yan said, "My mother was very happy today, thanks to you coming over, she was able to show off her talents."
Shen Wuye said, "It wasn't me, it was you. Your mother gave birth to a formidable daughter."
Bai Yan smiled and said, "I also have to thank President Chen. I asked you to come and help me out, but I didn't expect you to be so capable... My mother doesn't say it, but you can see that she keeps urging the bodyguards you invited to eat."
"Today's spectacle will keep her happy for a long time."
Shen Wuye gently covered his lips with his hand and coughed twice: "This is also... my first time using this kind of tactic. Hmm, it's alright, what do you think?"
As the heir to the conglomerate, he naturally has bodyguards, but he doesn't usually act this ostentatious.
The idea of having everyone drive the same luxury cars, wear white gloves, and open the doors in front of everyone while carrying cash was all Li's idea.
Bai Yan smiled as she looked at Shen Wuye: "You're very handsome, especially President Shen's outfit today. I really like it. To use the words we gamers use to describe Li Shimin: He's so handsome it's breathtaking."
"Really?" Shen Wuye remained expressionless, only slightly adjusting his tie. So she liked this style of dress…
"President Shen?"
Bai Yan suddenly took two steps forward, her smile vanished, and she looked at him.
Her eyes were slightly upturned at the corners, which should have been a natural charm, but her lips were pressed down, making Shen Wuye feel nervous.
"I heard that you punched Chu Hanchen twice at the bar that day?"
Bai Yan stared intently at Shen Wuye: "For my sake, President Shen, you first beat up your only nephew twice, then publicly declared that you spent tens of millions to bring those who defamed me to court."
Shen Wuye's expression remained unchanged; he merely curled his lips into a smile: "You deserve it. You are the best employee of the Twilight."
"Is it normal for an employee to be able to get the boss to put on an act and have dinner with them with just one phone call?"
Shen Wuye's heart raced. He looked at Bai Yan, as if he realized what she was about to say.
"President Shen, your concern for me goes beyond what you would show to an ordinary employee?" Bai Yan whispered in his ear, "Would you carry an ordinary employee to a hotel, or put your coat on her?"
Shen Wuye's slightly lowered gaze unconsciously drifted to her legs; she had already restrained herself from thinking about what happened at the hotel that day.
But he still couldn't help it; what if what he found after tearing the stockings that day was...
Bai Yan muttered again, "Actually, I memorized your phone number, but I don't know why you were the first person I thought of at that time... It's so strange."
“Sometimes I feel like you like me, but then again I don’t.” Bai Yan seemed a little worried. “Like you said, I am an excellent employee.”
Shen Wuye suddenly looked up at her, his eyes shining brightly: "No, I like you. I fell in love with you at first sight. I..."
She seemed startled by him and took two steps back. "No... Mr. Shen, you are my boss, I..."
"Xiao Yan, come quick, he's drunk and vomited!" Bai's mother's voice came from the room.
Bai Yan seemed relieved and quickly said, "I'm here."
She turned and walked into the house without looking back, leaving Chen Wuye standing there bewildered for a while. But Bai Yan's lips curled up slightly after she turned around... He was so sullen that day, now it was her turn to keep him hanging.
After lifting the drunk bodyguard into the car, Shen Wuye bid farewell to Bai's mother, but he did glance at Bai Yan.
But Bai Yan followed behind her mother with her head down, not looking at him.
Suddenly remembering something, Mrs. Shen hurriedly said, "Mr. Shen, wait, you haven't taken this money yet!"
Shen Wuye frowned and looked at it for a while, then said sincerely, "It's a bit inconvenient for you to carry this cash. How about this, you give me your account number, and I'll transfer it to your account."
Mrs. Shen's eyes widened in disbelief. Wasn't Mr. Shen just playing along with his daughter's act? These really were for her!
Bai Yan also looked up at Shen Wuye: "President Shen, one should not accept undeserved rewards."
"This is what you deserve."
Shen Wuye said, "The 50 million check that I gave you as a reward before, the bank won't cash it even if you lose it. Keep this one safe."
He made a pointed remark. Bai Yan looked up at him, opened her mouth as if to say something, then frowned slightly and sighed softly...
Shen Wuye: Why did she sigh? Was it because he confessed wrong, or was it because of the way he handed her the check?
