The old poker players tried to persuade Chen Yan's father, "Oh. Old Chen, the child is old and has his own ideas. Don't always impose your own beliefs on him."

"Yeah. Watching after them as they chase their own dreams is the responsibility of us as parents."

Chen Yan’s father was also annoyed by their words as he waved his hand, "Persuade, persuade, persuade! What is there to persuade!?. He is obviously being rebellious."

"When he faces the difficulties of climbing the social ladder, then he will know just exactly how feeble dreams as a goal are!.”

"Come on now. Let's not talk about him. Haha, look I have a full house!.”

The other uncles who had cards in hand remarked, "Old Chen, you are so lucky. You have all the good cards."

......

Saturday, Kotoshima University, classroom 201.

The first employee representative meeting of the Shenyu Company was officially held.

Participants are:

Chen Yan, the company’s chairman, general manager, and game planner.

The company’s game design assistant Yu Qiaoqiao,

And also...

Zhao Ying, who was following Yu Qiaoqiao to join in the fun...

"Alright then. This is the first game our company decided to make. You can take a look first."

Chen Yan handed the files of the design for "The Hidden Guardian" to Yu Qiaoqiao. 

After Yu Qiaoqiao grabbed it, Chen Yan asked Zhao Ying, "Why did you follow her?.”

Zhao Ying answered mischievously, "Just because.”

Chen Yan: “...”

Sister Ying, don’t tell me you came to satisfy your curiosity!?

As the atmosphere near Yu Qiaoqiao growed silent, she looked at the files written by Chen Yan a little bit.

“The Hidden Guardian” is a spy war game taking place in the Anti-Japanese War.

It is based on Japan’s capital during the Anti-Japanese Period. The main objective is to control the tide and lead the soldiers to a good ending.

The role played by the player is a patriotic youth who has studied in Japan.

He would lurk in the Japanese military intelligence agencies, carrying out a series of activities such as assassinations and theft of intelligence.

The player would follow the life of the youth step by step, and ultimately make a positive story with the result of China conquering the lands.

The story is very clever, and the designs of several enemies are also creative.

So far there are three main lines, and more than forty endings. Seeing such a huge story made Yu Qiaoqiao a little suspicious. 

Is this really written by one person?

This person is too talented, right?

Soon after, It took Yu Qiaoqiao more than 2 hours to read through every main plot and branch endings, thus she sat blankly for five minutes before breaking away from the war-torn era.

After recovering, Yu Qiaoqiao raised her head to look at Chen Yan.

Chen Yan was sitting opposite her, holding a small notebook and writing and planning there. Under the lighting, Chen Yan's original handsome face seemed to become more attractive…

Looking at him, Yu Qiaoqiao’s heartbeat seemed to miss two beats: What kind of boy is he to be able to write such a good story?

Thinking like that, a touch of pink quietly climbed up her white neck…

As if perceiving Yu Qiaoqiao's gaze, Chen Yan raised his head from the notebook.

The two of them looked at each other.

The atmosphere seemed to become a little bit ambiguous.

Shortly after, Chen Yan asked, "Did you finish?.”

Yu Qiaoqiao's face turned redder at once, and she let out a mosquito hum, then replied obediently, "It's finished."

Seeing her red face, Chen Yan was puzzled.

What's wrong with this girl?

Why is she acting weird?

Zhao Ying, who had witnessed everything on the side, had already shown a triumphant aunt's smile. She waited all this time, and it was worth seeing the spark between the two! 

“Crack!”

Secretly photographing this precious moment, Zhao Ying smiled like a thief who stole a great treasure.

Chen Yan glanced at her strangely, but because Zhao Ying's camera "flash" was fast enough, nothing was unusual.

Then he looked back at Yu Qiaoqiao, and said,

"Our company is now in its infancy stage."

"Although you are only a design assistant, you are also a worker of the company."

"So, you might have to do some work outside your position."

Yu Qiaoqiao asked weakly, "For example?.”

Chen Yan answered confidently, "For example...recruit people with me and take a look at the office space together."

"When the company is off the infancy stage, you can be liberated from this responsibility.”

Hearing the two simple tasks, Yu Qiaoqiao nodded obediently, "Okay. Boss."

Listening to Yu Qiaoqiao obediently calling him boss, Chen Yan felt inexplicably refreshed.

He continued speaking happily, taking out a file from the folder, and handing it to Yu Qiaoqiao, and said,

"Our company does not need too many people at the beginning."

"Just now, I have shown you the first final draft of "The Hidden Guardian", and our first batch of employees will also be recruited around them.”

"The Hidden Guardian is a picture puzzle game with little technical content."

"So we only need to hire one or two programmers and one artist."

"In addition to them, we also need to hire a part-time photographer and editor."

"With that, the game production team is near set up."

Yu Qiaoqiao took the file curiously, looked at it, and said, "Then...how long does it take to recruit so many people?.”

Chen Yan frowned slightly, "Depends. If we are fast enough, it will take a week or two. If we are slow, then it would be around three or four months..."

Hearing this, Yu Qiaoqiao, who has gradually blended in her assigned role, also frowned slightly, "That is a long time..."

Chen Yan added, "What’s more, we may not be able to recruit satisfactory candidates yet."

And just as the two were having a headache regarding recruitment, Zhao Ying, who was at the corner because of Chen Yan’s orders, suddenly raised her right hand.

With her hands raised high, she seemed like a student who likes to answer the most questions in the class, and for fear that Chen Yan will not be able to see her.

Looking her way, Chen Yan and Yu Qiaoqiao asked suspiciously, "What's wrong with you?.”

Zhao Ying stood up and said boldly, "If you are not good at recruiting people, I can help you!.”

Chen Yan retorted confusedly, "You?.”

Zhao Ying patted her chest, "Yes! If you believe in me, then give me your request. I'll do it for you in a few days!.”

Chen Yan looked at Yu Qiaoqiao, and asked, “Is she that reliable….?.”

Yu Qiaoqiao replied weakly, "I... don't know."

He pondered for a while, anyway, it would be worth trying.

Thinking like this, Chen Yan handed her the file in his hand and said, "Thank you, then."

After handing the file, he paused and then continued, "I don't ask much of these people, mainly because the technology programs are good. Also, don’t hesitate to recruit those who want a higher salary but they must prove themselves worthy!.”

Chen Yan, who has a huge sum of money in his hand and a "Qiaoqiao" ATM has the confidence to do such things.

Zhao Ying put her hand on her forehead and smiled, "Don't worry. I promise to complete the task!."

After she finished speaking, Zhao Ying supported the table with her hands, and jumped out from behind the table with one step, and then she waved her hand and said, "Then, you guys can finish the other task. I'll hire the necessary people." Then she ran away…

Looking at Zhao Ying's back, Chen Yan felt a glimpse of an inexplicable feeling of entrusting such a task to a reliable person…

Withdrawing his gaze, Chen Yan lowered his head to look at Yu Qiaoqiao, "Okay. The recruitment will be handed over to Zhao Ying."

"Let's go see the office location next."

"I will show you how a person who is wealthy chooses a house!.”

Yu Qiaoqiao tilted her head and looked confused: “?”.
