Chapter Ninety-Six: Trump Card (2/2)
After a short while, Yan Jin replied with a sentence that made Xiao Yu feel both depressed and frustrated.
[Grey-white SS]: You’re looking at the gaming industry? Planning to open you own company?
[Fishy]: No! This is the game I’ve been playing recently. Do you even pay attention to me?!
[Grey-white SS]: I already told you to spend less time on those games. A hamster’s eyesight is poor to begin with.
Xiao Yu suppressed his urge to cross over the internet and punch Yan Jin in the face. He grit his teeth and continued plotting.
[Fishy]: That’s not the point. The point is, they are releasing merchandise. Merchandise! Do you know what merchandise is? Do you need to wiki it?
[Grey-white SS]: Buy it.
[Fishy]: But the official just informed us that due to the changes in the collaboration company, there will be delays in the release. They can’t be sure when the delay will be extended to.
[Grey-white SS]: Can’t you wait?
[Fishy]: I want it immediately.

Grey-white SS stopped replying.
Xiao Yu counted in his head. One, two, three, four, five…
Just as expected, when he counted to ten, there was a message from his other QQ.
Xiao Yu snided coldly as he tabbed his Fish and Hamster – You Can’t Have Both account.
[Grey-white SS]: Regarding the contract, I just discussed with my secretary. Indeed, there’s a possibility of growth and prospects.
[Fish and Hamster – You Can’t Have Both]: That’s good.
[Fish and Hamster – You Can’t Have Both]: smile.jpg
The meaning of that smile was no doubt full of sarcasm.
[Grey-white SS]: How confident are you in taking down that deal?
[Fish and Hamster – You Can’t Have Both]: A hundred percent.
……
Even since Nan Wei returned from the Four Seasons Manor, he quickly continued with the task that Fish and Hamster – You Can’t Have Both had given him.
His childhood sweetheart was leisurely sitting on the couch, looking at his mobile as he occasionally stole side glances. Every single time, he could see Nan Wei working cautiously, conscientious and hardworking. He felt that it was kind of incredible.
Ever since they were young, Nan Wei had never persevered on anything he had done. Most of the things he tried had all been given up halfway. The xxxbao store could probably be considered the only thing that he had completed thus far. But if he scrutinized, it was still a half-assed job. After all, the most difficult parts were managing it when it first started and funding issues, which were all settled by Yan Jin. When the business was finally in Nan Wei’s hands, it was basically a half-finished product. In addition, Nan Wei had a super hacker like him watching over him long term. If the business didn’t work out, it would waste halos above the two shining gifted talents that only appear every hundred years.
That was why, in the eyes of a childhood sweetheart, it was truly rare for Nan Wei to be so devoted to doing something.
At first, he thought that Nan Wei would keep it up for a month at best before he lost motivation. He never expected that Nan Wei would still have the ambition to enter the professional industry.
“It’s almost one. Shall we head out for a meal?” The childhood sweetheart slid his cell phone in his pocket.
“You can go. Get me braised chicken rice and add fried tofu. No coriander, no spring onion, more chili.” Nan Wei said without even turning.
“Not unless we go together.”
“Then no thanks. I’ll eat cup noodles later. Boil water for me on your way out.”
The childhood sweetheart walked over and stood behind him depressed. He saw piles of drafts in front of Nan Wei and he asked: “Did your Guru give you a new mission again?”
If it was just a product in Nan Wei’s xxxbao store, he would never spend so much effort on it, waking up seven in the morning and completely wrapped up in his drawing until now.
“It’s the merchandise from the collaboration with XX gaming company. There’s quite a lot of concept products and I haven’t play some of those games before, so I have to do it carefully. Have you played any of these? Give me some ideas, quick.”
The childhood sweetheart rubbed his eyes: “I remembered the first time I played those games was to get a rare item for you.”
“Why are you talking about the same boring old gossip? Are you bored?”
“…… No, what I mean is that I don’t play games.”
“Then why are you not leaving? Go boil some water for me, I’m starving to death.”
“…… Speaking of this company, it gave me a certain impression. They didn’t mention that they were going to work with YL.” The childhood sweetheart took out his cell phone, searching for some evidence to prove to Nan Wei: “It’s the climax stage between YL and SI’s competition. If there were new collaborating merchants, they would have informed me to have a look to see if there are any problems.”
Nan Wei still did not turn around. Other than spending a little more attention to talking, his remaining focus was still on the drawings: “Oh, check thoroughly again then.”
“There’s really none.” He said as he showed his phone to Nan Wei: “Look, the official website didn’t even talk about it. How is it possible that there was no news for such a big matter? Instead, our neighbor SI seems to be saying that they’ll be signing a new contract. See, the news was released yesterday.”
Looking at “hard evidence” such as the official release, Nan Wei felt puzzled too. But he remained firm that his Guru would never be wrong: “The contract hasn’t been signed yet, so nothing can be confirmed. What if Guru made cousin steal the contract back?”
“How could that be? The Yan Jin I know would never do such a self-damaging thing.” The childhood sweetheart refuted without a second guess.
“You see…” Just as he was about to analyze the situation from a professional perspective, he suddenly noticed that Yan Jin had sent him a message.
Without a second thought, he opened the message in front of Nan Wei.
[Yan Jin]: We’re preparing to fight for the deal with SI. I may need your help.
The childhood sweetheart: ……
Nan Wei was pleased as he patted his childhood sweetheart’s shoulder and laughed: “I told you Guru is our future sister-in-law. Why can’t you believe it? If he wants that deal, how could cousin not give it to him?”
Childhood sweetheart: “Fine. I believe it now. What do you want to eat? I’ll buy it for you.”
