Chapter 179: Contract
Chapter 179
The next day when Chi Yan went to work, he brought the sketches he had drawn as well as some settings for the game to the meeting and shared them with everyone. Everyone flipped through them and thought they were quite good.
"So during the battle with the Witch BOSS, we could summon this kind of three-eyed creature, and the player must defeat the three-eyed creature before they can continue to attack the Witch BOSS," someone suggested.
Most people thought it was feasible.
"By the way, Vice President Chi, we need to promote this game soon, and we plan to invite some cosplayers to make promotional videos for each key character. However, there are two characters we haven't been able to find suitable people for - one is the Dwarf Clan Leader, and the other is the Dark Witch character. We have selected several people but didn't feel any of them were quite right." They couldn't really pinpoint what was not suitable, but they just didn't get that feeling.
Chi Yan suddenly remembered how Yang looked yesterday wearing the witch robe, holding a staff and a crystal ball. He had even taken a picture of her.
After some thought, Chi Yan took out the picture. "What about this?"
In the photo, a girl whose face couldn't be seen was wearing a black witch robe, with the hood attached to the robe covering her face completely. Her slender hands were holding a crystal ball, and in the other hand was a staff with strange floral patterns engraved on it, topped with a red gemstone. Only her faintly reddish lips could be seen from under the hood, giving her an aura of mystery.
Everyone was quite surprised.
The person in charge of promotion had shining eyes. "Vice President Chi, who is this? She looks absolutely perfect!"
"That staff looks amazing. I'll check online if there are any similar ones for sale. I really want to buy the same one."
"That crystal ball really exudes a dark aura."
"The whole outfit is great. We could have the procurement department purchase it and sell it as a figurine."
Everyone was chattering excitedly, but Chi Yan poured cold water on their excitement, taking back his phone. "Forget it, it's not for sale! This is one of a kind."
Everyone looked at Chi Yan, who said, "This is my girlfriend."
Everyone: ...Did they just get a mouthful of dog food?
The person in charge of game promotion pondered for a moment. "If it's not too much trouble, Vice President Chi, could you perhaps ask your girlfriend if she would be willing to come and take some promotional photos for us? Of course, we would follow proper procedures."
Chi Yan replied, "I'll have to ask her first. I can't guarantee it." But in truth, Chi Yan really wanted Chu Yang to come, even if she didn't show her face.
"Thank you, Vice President Chi."
That evening, when Chi Yan went home, he told Chu Yang about this matter. At first, Chu Yang wanted to refuse since she wasn't a cosplayer, but then Chi Yan said she could earn several thousand yuan by taking a few photos, and she wouldn't need to show her face. Chu Yang thought about it and immediately agreed - who would pass up money?
The next morning, Chu Yang, wearing a white shirt and a black pleated skirt, went to the company with Chi Yan. Chi Yan was also dressed in black and white, looking like they were wearing a couple outfit. They entered the elevator one after the other, and many people were secretly glancing at them.
After they got off the elevator, the people inside started whispering to each other. "Who was that girl?"
"The young master actually brought a girl here?"
"I wonder if the chairman knows."
"Maybe she's someone from the game department or a new employee."
"Could be. But it's interesting that the young master brought her."
...
In the office, Chi Yan and Chu Yang sat on one side, while the person in charge of game promotion and another employee sat facing them. "Miss Chu, hello, here is the contract."
Chu Yang took the contract and studied it for a while, then handed it to Chi Yan. "Yan, could you please take a look at this for me?"
Chi Yan read it carefully, then told Chu Yang, "It's fine."
Chu Yang nodded. "I trust you."
After signing the contract, Chu Yang asked, "When will we start?"
The promotion person looked at Chi Yan, who asked Chu Yang, "What's wrong?"
Chu Yang said, "Don't classes start again in a few days? If school is in session, I won't have much time."
Chi Yan asked the person in charge, "When was this originally scheduled? Can we do the shooting before classes start?"
The person checked the schedule and nodded. "How about the day before classes start? Would that day work?"
Chu Yang nodded. "That's fine."
"Then let's schedule it for that day."
"Thank you."
After they were done, Chi Yan took Chu Yang downstairs. On the way, they encountered some people who were secretly glancing at Chu Yang, but she paid them no mind. After getting off the elevator, she said to Chi Yan, "I'll head back first."
Chi Yan held her hand. "Why don't you stay for a bit and have lunch with me in an hour?"
Chu Yang checked the time and looked around. There was a mall nearby. "I'll go shopping at that mall first, and I'll come back when it's time for lunch." Chu Yang straightened Chi Yan's collar. "Work hard, I know you can do it."
Chi Yan smiled and patted her head. "Okay."
The two parted ways, with Chu Yang going to the nearby mall while Chi Yan returned to work.
In the office, people were whispering.
"That was Vice President Chi's girlfriend."
"She's so pretty."
"And very gentle. Her smile is so lovely."
"Long, straight legs with no excess flesh."
"No wonder the young master took a liking to her."
"I wonder if they'll end up together in the end."
"It's possible. I saw how gentle the young master was with his girlfriend. Their chemistry is amazing."
"Shh, Vice President Chi is coming back. Don't say anything more."
...
The mall was quite upscale, with all kinds of high-end brand-name stores as soon as you entered. Chu Yang walked into one of the stores, but the staff didn't approach her, probably thinking she couldn't afford their merchandise. They were instead attending to another well-dressed lady.
Chu Yang didn't mind. Such things were quite common.
Besides, she wasn't necessarily there to buy anything, just to browse.
Chu Yang went through several more stores, and finally saw a men's clothing store. Thinking of Chi Yan, she decided to go in and take a look.
There was another lady browsing the clothes inside as well. Chu Yang picked out two shirts and a tie. "Could you please wrap these up for me?"
The other lady had also selected some clothes and said, "Could you please wrap these up for me as well?"
The two glanced at each other, then smiled at each other. Chu Yang noticed that she looked a bit familiar, but she knew she didn't know her.
Chu Yang saw that she had picked out two suits and a tie, and that tie was actually the same as the one she had chosen.
After checking out and leaving the store, Chu Yang was about to leave when she suddenly noticed the black aura on the shoulder of the lady from before, which meant that she was about to have an accident.
Chu Yang thought for a moment and followed her. Although the lady was wearing high heels, she walked very quickly and turned a corner into an elevator. Chu Yang hurried after her.
As the elevator doors closed, Zhao Yun inside was about to take out her phone to call her son when the elevator suddenly shook and stopped! The lights inside the elevator also went out.
Zhao Yun panicked for a moment, but she was at least someone who had experienced major events, so she quickly calmed down and pressed the emergency button, "Is anyone there? Is anyone there?"
On the other side, the security room was empty with no one there.
