"Although there was a small mishap during this virtual reality interactive game experience—Ms. Li Peiyu's memory shielding failed, causing the game to deviate from the main storyline—it is precisely because of this that our system's power is further demonstrated. Even under such circumstances, 100 engineers and 3,000 AI systems still successfully and smoothly virtualized a new storyline."
Shen Yizhou's face was tense, his eyes filled with disdain. "You call this a success, smooth as silk?"
Zhou Yanbai said, "It certainly can't compare to the real world in terms of rigor, but I think it's already quite successful."
Shen Yizhou raised an eyebrow. "Making such a big mistake as failing to block memories from the very beginning is a failure, not a success."
Zhou Yanbai was speechless. "What President Shen said is true. Our engineers are already testing the equipment."
Zhou Yanbai continued, "Now, let's have a few participants share their experiences."
Then everyone took turns speaking.
When it was Li Peiyu's turn, she took a deep breath and said, "I entered the game with my memories intact. First of all, I'm very sorry for my misbehavior, which diminished everyone's enjoyment. Secondly, I think this game is indeed successful; it even handled a mistake like mine. Finally, I want to say that after the game ends, after-sales service should be provided to players, such as services for game memory and sensory blurring. Just like a dream, once you wake up, the game experience should gradually fade. We can't let players' reality and the game become indistinguishable."
Zhou Yanbai said, "Yes, we should indeed provide such after-sales service. What does President Shen think?"
Shen Yizhou parted his thin lips slightly, "That's how it should be."
As the discussion continued, Li Peiyu's mood grew increasingly heavy. The one who had captured her heart in the game was Lu Yuzhi, while Shen Yizhou before her was merely a complete stranger.
When the dream ends, it's time to return to reality.
She came to find Zhou Gouzi to invest in her company's projects; if she couldn't attract investment, she would lose her job.
...
Back in reality, Li Peiyu received a termination notice from her company. Her first job after graduation was gone.
Zhou Yanbai extended an olive branch to her, inviting her to work at their company.
Although Zhou Gouzi always mocked and ridiculed her in junior high and high school, he now has some conscience and morality and sincerely apologized to her.
Li Peiyu gladly accepted Zhou Yanbai's apology and the job he offered, after all, it was a great experience to have connections in a company.
That day, Li Peiyu returned home from get off work and sat idly for a while before taking out her phone and silently searching for Shen Yizhou on Baidu.
The sole designated heir of the Shen Group, 28 years old.
Gu Yan is Shen Yizhou's cousin, whose original name was Shen Shuyou.
Just as I was searching on Baidu, there was a knock on the door.
Li Peiyu opened the door and received a package.
Upon opening, you'll find a very exquisite large gift box inside.
A white dress came into view. Li Peiyu picked it up; its design was exactly the same as the dress Lu Yuzhi had given her during the campus art competition in the game.
Li Peiyu's eyes immediately reddened; it was her Lu Yuzhi.
But, is it Shen Yizhou?
Just then, the phone rang.
"Miss Li, I am Shen Yizhou. Would you be willing to accompany me to a banquet tonight? I will be waiting for you downstairs at your house."
Li Peiyu hurriedly climbed to the window and, sure enough, saw Shen Yizhou waiting for her leaning against the Maybach, just like in the game.
"Wait for me."
After hanging up the phone, Li Peiyu put on her formal dress, dressed herself up, and hurriedly went downstairs.
Throughout the entire party, she followed Shen Yizhou nervously. Although Shen Yizhou clearly resembled Lu Yuzhi, there was still a sense of unfamiliarity between them.
Shen Yizhou simply took her along while he chatted and exchanged pleasantries with the others.
After the party, Shen Yizhou drove Li Peiyu home. Shen Yizhou got out of the car and opened the door for Li Peiyu.
After getting out of the car, Li Peiyu said goodbye to Mr. Shen and turned to leave.
But Shen Yizhou pulled her firmly into his arms.
He said, "I miss you so much. I can't tell the difference between the game and reality."
“Then Mr. Shen needs after-sales service for the game, to weaken the game’s sensory experience.” Li Peiyu said this, but her hands involuntarily wrapped around his waist. He was clearly Lu Yuzhi.
"It seems you've weakened? Then I'll help you strengthen yourself."
With that, Shen Yizhou picked up Li Peiyu and strode upstairs.
A familiar kiss, a familiar touch.
A lingering, ambiguous atmosphere, a torn dress
-------
"Have you remembered your husband's new name?"
"Um."
"What's my name?"
"Chen-Yi-Zhou"
Wang Boyang's experience participant was Zhou Yanbai's friend, named Ji Yanxi.
After the experience ended, he went traveling around. He would call Zhou Yanbai from time to time to ask for after-sales service, as he needed to weaken his memory. But Zhou Yanbai always said that it was under development and he should wait a month or two.
Ji Yanxi sat on the mountaintop, looking at the green mountains and white clouds with deep concern.
He had met Shen Shuyou, one of the participants in Gu Yan's experience, a few times in several venues, but they were not familiar with each other and had never spoken.
In the original game setting, he was one of Li Peiyu's suitors, with a small role. But unexpectedly, the whole game was overturned, and he actually got together with Shen Shuyou.
Zhou Yanbai's terrible game ruined him.
He simply can't get out of it.
That's too much pressure.
Who can I reason with?
Just as she was fretting over this, Zhou Yanbai called.
Shen Yizhou said he wanted to organize a gathering, inviting game participants and staff to join, especially the participants, to get to know each other better.
Since President Shen had a lot of influence, Ji Yanxi had no choice but to hurry down the mountain and go back.
By the time he got home, it was already evening.
"Dad, where's Mom?"
"Your mom went to do square dancing."
Ji Yanxi put down her luggage, turned around and went downstairs to find her mother.
Mother, my heart is filled with sorrow.
When Ji Yanxi found his mother in the park across from the residential area, he was so shocked that his eyes almost popped out.
What did he see?
He saw his Gu Yan and Shen Shuyou dancing in the square with his mother.
The way she swayed her waist made Ji Yanxi smile broadly.
Shen Shuyou turned around and saw Ji Yanxi, smiled brightly, and then jumped.
Ji Yanxi stepped forward and grabbed Shen Shuyou's wrist. "Come here for a moment."
The two then slipped into a certain part of the park.
Zhou Yanbai is holding a meeting with the game development team:
Comrades, everyone worked very hard on this game development, perhaps even a little too hard.
General Manager Shen has given instructions that our game must be downgraded to a lower version, reducing its realism. We must also expedite the development of a memory-weakening service.
