MTL - After Playing the Fool and Marrying the Blind Villain [Transmigration]-Chapter 35

Because they ate a lot in the tea restaurant, Bo Yueming and Pei Yi simply skipped the step of dinner after returning home.

Pei Yi returned to the room under the pretext of being "sleepy", quickly locked the door, and took out her mobile phone.

There was an extra unread message in the SMS box, which was sent by Xiang Nansheng half an hour ago: "Sorry, I have been delayed by something, this invitation came too suddenly, and I have doubts about your identity , sorry I can’t agree.”

"..."

Looking at this expected answer, Pei Yi simply dialed the phone number of the other party, got up and walked into the bathroom with better sound insulation.

beep-beep-beep-

After a few simple waits, the phone finally came through, "Hello, I'm Xiang Nansheng."

Pei Yi suppressed her voice and greeted politely, "Director Xiang, hello, I'm Will from "The Last Mist"."

There was a brief pause on the other end of the phone, and Xiang Nansheng let out a breath, "I think I should have rejected it in the text message."

"I know, but I still want to invite again by phone. I understand the concerns of the director. After all, it is really hard for people to believe that I, a person who did not show up today, made the invitation. This is my mistake."

Pei Yi paused, relaxed, "If Director Xiang is willing to accept this invitation, I will ask Mr. Li Yu'an to negotiate with you in person."

Xiang Nansheng didn't hang up the phone directly, his calm tone concealed his exhaustion, "Mr. Will, I don't know if you know that Youming Studio was founded by Ke Ming and me."

"The fundamental reason for the failure of the bidding in the afternoon is that we You Ming, but this does not mean that we will fall here and never get back up."

Replace the image of the alien beast with plagiarism problems, let the art team re-original design, and their modeling technology is still there, as long as the funds are in place, it can still be made.

Their studio has not yet closed down. As long as the funds are in circulation, they will still have the opportunity to find other investors and continue to expand and develop in the future.

Pei Yi admitted bluntly, "Yes, I never doubted Director Xiang's ability."

In the real world, he started from the studio with his friends. A group of people worked hard for eight years, from being unknown to being famous in China.

No one is willing to abandon the friendship that has been fought like this.

If people's hearts don't change, then everything will naturally remain the same, but what if someone changes in the middle?

Pei Yi thought of everything he had secretly observed in G.M today, and asked implicitly, "But Director Xiang, are you sure the You Ming you see now is the one you created?"

"The partner Ke Ming who is staying by your side now, is his idea, goal and even the moral bottom line consistent with yours?"

The two are not so much partners as bosses and employees.

"..."

Xiang Nansheng on the other end of the phone suddenly fell silent.

Is it consistent?

He couldn't answer the question.

After the bidding ended in the afternoon, the two of them had the biggest argument ever—

Annoyed and furious, Ke Ming believed that Xiang Nansheng should not have apologized to Lou Yang before leaving the venue. This move was equivalent to admitting that You Ming had plagiarized, and it was simply a slap in the face of him, the studio boss, in public!

As long as the killing timeline is earlier than Lou Yang, even if the bidding is unsuccessful, it may not necessarily bear the infamy of "plagiarism".

But Xiang Nansheng disagreed.

He proposed to redesign the game settings related to "Alien Beast", but Ke Ming, who had already insisted on investing the cost in the early stage, was unwilling.

The two argued until the end, and the word "disbanded" came out.

If it really came to that kind of trouble, who would be the one to quit? The results speak for themselves.

Xiang Nansheng only understands technology, and only wants to work hard at the technical level, so he doesn't understand Ke Ming's arrogance and arrogance of wanting to soar into the sky, and his heart gradually infected by money and interests.

Their original intention was to make a local game popular in China by themselves, rather than imitating foreign game settings, or borrowing or copying other people's ideas.

Right now, it's clearly wrong.

"Director Xiang, your silence has already explained everything."

"I want to make a local game that belongs to Huaguo. The basic settings of "The Last Mist" include character images, and they will all be Huaguo people in the future."

Pei Yi spoke bluntly and continued to throw olive branches, "I believe that You Ming's development before today must be inseparable from your technical level. If you are willing to come to "The Last Mist", you should get more treatment. .”

"Of course, except for the title of 'partner'."

Pei Yi told the truth, apart from the financial support from G.M's shareholding, he hopes that he and Li Yu'an will still control the voice of "The Last Mist" in the future.

Xiang Nansheng seldom let out a low laugh, "Mr. Will is direct enough."

Pei Yi replied, "Frankness is the only way to talk about cooperation."

"Yes, but I'm sorry, I have to refuse now." Xiang Nansheng did not hide it, "You Ming Studio is my work, and no one will suddenly give up their work."

"understand."

Pei Yi responded readily, and while understanding, he did not forget to attach the deadline, "But at most one month, if a more suitable programmer is found, then the position of the leader cannot be the director Xiang."

Xiang Nansheng sighed again, and kept the sincere wishes of the gamers, "Mr. Will, the game you built is very interesting, and I hope that one day it will become popular in the game circle in Huaguo."

"Also, please apologize to Director Lou Yang for me again."

Ke Ming knew that Xiang Nansheng was serious, so he deliberately kept this matter a secret. By the time he found out, the studio had already put a lot of effort into it.

He was an indirect accomplice, and he didn't dare to say that he was right, but at least he should express his apology without missing a word.

Pei Yi clenched her lips, "Yes, if you have any changes in Director Xiang's mind within this month, you can directly contact Mr. Li."

"good."

The phone hangs up.

Pei Yi went back to the room again, sat on the bed and opened the Youtu interface, and there were three or four more unread messages in the three-group chat where he, Li Yu'an, and Lou Yang were.

"Will, the bidding was successful! As you guessed, that **** Ke Ming borrowed and copied Sister Yang's design in terms of modeling design!"

"You didn't see, Sister Yang frightened him for a while today."

Lou Yang added a few sentences, "Thanks to Will's analysis and judgment, I set up a language trap according to the pre-arrangement, and the other party's arrogant personality really jumped to the point."

"@Will, where's the man? Where are you going?"

How could Pei Yi, who had already witnessed the bidding scene, not know how exciting the afternoon was? He quickly circled the two of them and replied: "Congratulations, you've worked hard, especially Sister Yang, who came all the way here, are you tired?"

Replies to messages in the group came quickly.

"After the afternoon, I went back to the hotel and took a nap. I feel good now. There is still some time before the official investment of G.M's funds. I will try to design the graphic images of six characters first."

Lou Yang is an absolute strong woman in her career, she never drags her feet in the face of work.

Perhaps it was destined that Pei Yi just happened to meet the time when she wanted to return to China for development, so all the invitations progressed so logically.

The phone vibrated slightly again, and it was a group message from Li Yuan, "I'm already dealing with fund-related matters, and I'm trying to get the contract signed with G.M within half a month. As for the specific work location, it's still scheduled for Liming Games? "

Having a ready-made office environment and staff can save a lot of energy consumption.

Pei Yi agreed, "Yes, but the hardware that needs to be upgraded cannot be saved, and the increase and decrease of personnel must be more thoughtful."

"clear."

"If Yu An needs help, he can ask me for help at any time. I have been in the industry for so many years. Among other things, the management review is still worthwhile."

Pei Yi looked at the two people in the group who were discussing Zhengsheng, and took the time to briefly tell about the "invitation to Nansheng in the afternoon and just now"—

When Li Yu'an learned about this, he agreed, "I have dealt with Xiang Nansheng before, and he is indeed capable. It would be a good thing if he is willing to come to the "End Mist" project team."

He paused for two seconds, and added, "Sister Yang, what do you think?"

"I have no problem with your arrangement. Strictly speaking, as long as Xiang Nansheng doesn't mess up like Ke Ming, I'm willing to accept a capable work partner."

Lou Yang's work experience is far superior to the two youngsters, and his thinking and overall outlook are also very mature.

Suddenly, she added another sentence, "However, I'm a little curious."

Pei Yi asked back, "What are you curious about?"

"Will, you didn't come to the bidding site this afternoon, and Yu An and I didn't explain it to you in the first place. How could you count on the right time to invite Xiang Nansheng? What if he is involved in the 'plagiarism' matter? Woolen cloth?"

"..."

Pei Yi looked at this text, her heart trembled suddenly, and somehow she thought of a picture——

As an "undercover" himself, he suddenly leaked his feet, and was caught by Lou Yang's sharp eyes, and pointed his black muzzle at himself.

A woman's innate intuition is really powerful and terrifying.

Pei Yi secretly sighed, and hurried to make up for it, "I have people I know at the scene, and Xiang Nansheng's personal information and works are also available on the studio's official website."

The message was sent within seconds.

Lou Yang: "Oh, so that's the case."

Li Yu'an: "Will, I have an appointment with Sister Yang for supper, and I will celebrate today's victory by the way."

Lou Yang replied with a smile, "I know you can't come with a mysterious vest, so Yu An and I will have a drink later, and I will definitely drink two more glasses for you."

"..."

Pei Yi was stuck, and had no choice but to laugh out loud in front of the computer, "Okay, you guys go, I'll celebrate by myself."

--

after a while.

Pei Yi, who took off her tired body, came out of the bathroom.

Maybe it was caused by Li Yu'an and Lou Yang's addiction to alcohol, or maybe it was caused by the heat in the shower, he just felt that his desire to drink was about to move again.

Pei Yi thought of the wall of wine in the small living room, and always felt that it was time to sneak a taste of it for the reason of "celebration".

After all, Bo Yueming still can't see it now, as long as he gets the wine and drinks secretly behind closed doors, nothing will go wrong.

Pei Yi secretly built something in his heart, planning to open the door to investigate the enemy's situation first.

crunch.

The moment the door opened, he ran into Bo Yueming at the door.

"..."

Pei Yi was taken aback, and quickly restrained her expression.

Bo Yueming, who had no time to knock on the door, quickly lowered his eyes, leaving only a shadow of nothingness cast by his overly slender eyelashes.

The inexplicable silence lasted less than three seconds, and the inspector rushed to their feet, "Meow~meow!"

Bo Yueming finished the adjustment first, "Pei Yi? What are you doing here?"

Pei Yi put on a cute and easy-to-handle look, and pursed her lips, "Milk, I want to drink, milk! Second brother."

Bo Yueming cooperated and passed the warm milk in his hand, "Uncle Kai just brought it, drink it while it's hot."

"oh."

Pei Yi pretended to be happy to accept it, and in front of Bo Yueming—

He obviously only took half a sip, but he did not forget to make an extremely exaggerated swallowing sound. After drinking, he deliberately smiled at the corners of his eyes and brows, "It's delicious~"

"..."

Bo Yueming was almost deceived by this set of "skillful acting skills", and said cooperatively, "It's good if you like it. I'm a little tired today, so I'll go back to my room to rest first."

When Pei Yi heard the second half of the sentence, her eyes lit up uncontrollably.

very good!

God help him too!

Bo Yueming sensed the joy of his sneaking out, but he didn't poke it, "Go to bed early, good night."

After going out for a long time today, his eyes began to become sore and tired, and he really wanted to close his eyes and rest early.

As he said that, he turned around holding his guide stick, but deliberately shifted his footsteps from the direction of the master bedroom.

Pei Yi watched silently for a while, then stepped forward to hold his hand, "Second brother."

"Um?"

"here."

"Have I gone astray?"

"Um."

"Then help me back."

"…Um!"

The two pretended to be stupid, asking and answering.

It wasn't until the master bedroom door clicked shut that both of them took off their masks.

Pei Yi stood silently at the door of the master bedroom for a while, through the crack of the door under his feet, until he confirmed that the light inside had been turned off, he let out a long sigh of relief, and started his long-awaited drinking plan.

Pei Yi walked lightly to the wine wall, her eyes flicked over all kinds of fine wine excitedly.

Choose too expensive? Not good, after all, without Bo Yueming's formal consent.

From the menu? Not good, after all, the quantity is single, if you drink it, Uncle Kai may notice it.

Pei Yi struggled for a while before taking a Lafite of a common vintage from the top right of the wine cabinet wall. Of course, it wasn't cheap either.

— Bang!

"Meow~"

The sound of wine bottles being tapped was accompanied by the inspector's cry.

Pei Yi, who had a guilty conscience, froze in place, and said after a while, "Shh! I'll give you some dried fish later."

The inspector whispered, "Woo~"

Pei Yi had a good idea of ​​his current drinking capacity, and he definitely couldn't stay in the small living room to drink, so as not to startle the snake, he gestured to the beloved pet under his feet with his eyes, "Get out!"

One person and one cat sneaked into the room quickly, closed the door neatly, and did bad things.

…

Pei Yi entered the room only to realize that he was too nervous. He only took the bottle opener and forgot to take the wine glass. He was afraid that opening the door would make too much noise, so he thought about it and planned to blow the bottle directly.

The cork on the wine bottle is easily pulled out, and the unique aroma of red wine permeates in an instant.

In the past, Pei Yi would definitely have to sober up enough to enjoy it leisurely, but now it is different from the past, how could he care so much?

He held up the wine bottle and took two sips, then squinted his eyes contentedly.

Cool!

Finally no one cares!

…

Bo Yueming closed his eyes and lay on the bed to rest, but he kept recalling Pei Yi's flash of excitement in his mind, and always felt that this kitten was hiding some problems behind his back.

The more I think about it, the more I can't sleep.

When the soreness in his eyes dissipated, Bo Yueming couldn't help getting up and turning on the light, and glanced at the time—

Before I knew it, it was half past twelve.

"At this point, you should be asleep, right?"

Bo Yueming muttered vaguely, but his instinct was stronger than rationality, so he opened the door softly.

The corner light in the small living room was still on.

Bo Yueming glanced at the wall of his wine cabinet, feeling that something was wrong, but before he could discern it carefully, the detective's coquettish call sounded from the second bedroom.

At the same time, he also refused, "No, you are not allowed to eat small dried fish anymore, I, I have already given you a lot!"

"..."

Different from the usual simple remarks, the speech is quite complete, but the tone and pause are not normal, like... stuttering after being drunk.

Is this stealing alcohol behind your back?

Bo Yueming reacted suddenly, he didn't know whether to laugh or not for a moment, he narrowed his eyes and approached the second bedroom, and knocked on the door tentatively.

The movement in the room suddenly became louder, and it took a long time for a confused voice to utter, "Who, who?"

Bo Yueming said concisely, "Pei Yi, open the door."

The voice of the transmission stammered, "I'm already asleep, I'm asleep."

Bo Yueming didn't believe it, "Open the door."

There was another brief silence before the door was pried open from the inside.

Pei Yi, who was still accidentally drunk, hid in the crack of the door and squinted her eyes. After confirming that there was someone she knew outside, there was a hint of guilt in her cute smile.

"Hey brother."

"..."

Bo Yueming looked at his brows and eyes already drenched with drunkenness, and caught a glimpse of the half-empty wine bottle in his hand, and asked knowingly, "What are you drinking?"

He remembered what happened to Pei Yi when he was drunk the last time, and when he woke up the next day, he was completely fragmented. Now that he drank half a bottle, he would definitely forget it all!

Pei Yi was carried away by the drunkenness, and said in a high-profile manner, "I drink, drink milk!"

"..."

Bo Yueming shifted his gaze slightly, and snorted.

milk?

Fortunately, this little drunk cat can make up nonsense to perfuse him.

The cup of warm milk that was handed out before going to bed just now was placed on the table almost intact.

Pei Yi thought she had fooled Bo Yueming, and the drunkenness in her body gave birth to enthusiasm.

He licked his lips a little dryly, quietly raised the wine bottle again, took a small sip, and suddenly lightened his hand—

Bo Yueming grabbed the bottle and said seriously, "No more drinking."

Pei Yi frowned unhappily, and stretched out her hand to grab it, but her left foot tripped over her right foot and fell directly into Bo Yueming's arms. The unspoken condemnation suddenly turned into a whimper, which was cute and pitiful.

"careful."

Afraid that Pei Yi would fall again, Bo Yueming stretched out his hand to stabilize the body of the man in his arms, and then casually placed the wine bottle on the cabinet inside the door.

"Well, it's hot."

Pei Yi, who is afraid of the heat, sensed the coolness on Bo Yueming's body, and her thoughts of grabbing the wine changed in the blink of an eye.
