Chapter 526 - 526 Don’t Guess a Woman’s Thoughts
Jiang Xu stared at it for over ten minutes before Jiang Xiaoyan finally stopped and rubbed her shoulders.
Only then did she notice Jiang Xu.
She sprang up, “When did you get here…ah… wait a bit, I’m going to take a shower, brush my teeth…”
Jiang Xiaoyan let out a yelp of surprise.
Her face turned red instantly, utterly embarrassed.
It was a disaster to appear so unkempt in front of the person she liked.
Her office had its own bathroom and bedroom.
Jiang Xu shook his head, not minding at all.
He sat down to see what game Jiang Xiaoyan was actually working on.
“Working on Legendary…” Jiang Xu found it strange, “Hasn’t the source code for this kind of game been leaked already… oh… it’s different.”
After taking a closer look, Jiang Xu realized.
This was unlike any version of Legendary on the market.
Firstly, the content was a hundred times more than that of Legendary.
Then there were the framework, classes, and the setting; everything was many times richer than in Legendary.
“Why would this girl want to get into game development all of a sudden?” Jiang Xu couldn’t understand.
After all, it wasn’t the main business of Jiang Xiaoyan’s company; she was somewhat of an amateur.
Getting into it would require extra efforts, time, and cost.
It seemed rather counterproductive.
Half an hour later, Jiang Xiaoyan came out of the shower.
Wearing a pink mini skirt and pure white stockings over her jade legs.
Her skin glowed jelly-like, fresh from the bath.
“Brother, do I look good like this?” Jiang Xiaoyan called out crisply.
She sent electrifying glances at Jiang Xu and then spun around before him.
The hem of her skirt fluttered.
Jiang Xu quickly averted his gaze.
Damn woman.
She actually…
Seeing Jiang Xu’s ‘bashful’ reaction, Jiang Xiaoyan was very pleased with herself.
She happily pulled up a chair and sat beside him, “We haven’t seen each other for such a long time, did you miss me?”
She had a milky scent about her.
Jiang Xu once heard a saying.
If a girl likes you, you could smell a milky fragrance from her.
He wasn’t sure if it was true or false.
But An Nuonuo had this scent as well.
Especially on certain occasions, the fragrance would become much stronger.
Jiang Xu couldn’t continue on this subject, so he quickly changed it, “Let’s talk about why you want to do this game instead?”
Jiang Xiaoyan’s eyes flickered slightly before she said with a beaming smile, “I just think the gaming industry is very profitable.
Like your League of Legends, it’s making a net profit of over a billion a month, it’s literally making money while lying down.
So, I also want to produce a few games, to reach the small goal of having assets over a hundred billion early.”
Jiang Xu felt that this girl wasn’t telling the whole truth.
But then again, if she wanted to tell, she would eventually.
So, he asked where she was stuck.
Jiang Xiaoyan mentioned, “One is the power system, the other is the storyline…”
These were not difficult for Jiang Xu.
He spent several hours and helped her with them.
“Ah, ah, ah, that’s great, you really live up to your reputation.” Jiang Xiaoyan stood up, hopping and skipping, “The rest is easy, we can start testing in at most a month, just in time…”
Her bosom bounced continuously as she moved.
Jiang Xu had reason to suspect this woman was doing it on purpose.
Even though he had no proof.
He asked, “In time for what?”
“Nothing.” Jiang Xiaoyan quickly shook her head, deflecting, “I’m hungry, come eat with me, I want to eat grilled fish.”
Jiang Xu checked the time; it was almost six in the evening.
“Sure, you pick the place, I’ll call Nuonuo to join us.”
Jiang Xiaoyan was displeased.
Her mouth was upturned in a pout, “It’s not like that, why do you have to invite her? Can’t we just have a meal alone?
I’m not going to do anything to you, I really hate this, huh.”
Jiang Xu just shrugged his shoulders.
This kind of question was best left unanswered.
Because no matter how he responded, Jiang Xiaoyan wouldn’t be satisfied.
After a small fit, Jiang Xiaoyan let it go.
They chose a large-scale grilled fish restaurant nearby.
They booked a private room.
While waiting, Jiang Xu checked the video that he posted a few hours ago, showing him dining with several business magnates.
Boy oh boy.
Jiang Xu estimated that the video wouldn’t lack in views and comments, yet it still surpassed his imagination.
In just a few hours, the view count had broken a hundred million.
The number of comments had also reached over two hundred thousand.
“My god, is Mr. Jiang so awesome now, dining with all these tycoons?”
“Do you guys need a watchdog at home? I can ask my friend to apply for the job.”
“Ah ah ah, did you see the floor there? It’s all golden, could it be made of gold?” “Damn it, why are there so many rich people in the world, why can’t there be one more—me?”
For most ordinary people, the daily life of high society is very attractive.
Especially when so many tycoons are gathered.
Suddenly, it eclipsed the heat generated by Lifuzhen’s released video of the unsavory acts of sixteen female artists.
He had arranged an exclusive release on Daily Headlines.
Jiang Xu had already arranged for a professional team, forbidding other platforms from republishing it.
As soon as they did, they would be reported and taken down.
Some obstinate platforms didn’t want to take it down in the face of huge traffic.
That’s when they would receive a legal notice.
The video’s popularity was expected to last two or three days, bringing a lot of traffic and users to the platform.
Jiang Xu thought to himself that Lifuzhen was probably exploding with anger by now.
In Lifuzhen’s office.
She wasn’t as angry as Jiang Xu had guessed.
She was just drinking sullenly while looking at her computer.
The last time she was defeated by Jiang Xu was still reasonable.
But this time, the defeat was so complete that it was almost powerless to fight back.
It had nearly shattered Lifuzhen’s confidence.
She couldn’t help to wonder if she was even capable of doing business.
At this moment, her brother Li Zairong called.
He started off with a brutal scolding, “You waste, how could you assure me of success before?
How much money has been lost after so much time?
And you just handed over the sixteen female artists that were trained, for nothing.
You might as well break away from the Li Family; there has never been a more useless one in our lineage.”
Lifuzhen listened quietly, without rebuttal.
Although Li Zairong’s words were unkind, they were factually true.
However, Lifuzhen’s silence resulted in an even more scathing tirade from Li Zairong.
Eventually, his words even turned into personal attacks.
Anger flickered in Lifuzhen’s eyes.
She hung up the phone abruptly.
Her chest heaved violently.
Being cursed at like that by her own brother was more than anyone could bear.
Her hands clenched tightly, her expression shifting uncertainly.
In a certain moment, she made a decision….
