The right way to pretend to be inscrutable

Fortunately, because she was mentally prepared, Mama Li quickly adjusted and brought breakfast to the table with a smile.

And Chu Yao and Bai Duan didn't entangle for long. After hearing the noise, they both turned their heads to look at Li Ma, said good morning, and then sat in their seats as usual.

After a warm breakfast, Chu Yao's cell phone rang, and he turned to answer the phone, while Bai Duan nestled on the sofa, opened the game with his tablet in his arms, and started to do his daily tasks.

Soon, Chu Yao came back after making the phone call, sat down beside Bai Duan, and stretched out his hand to pull him into his arms. Bai Duan also adjusted his posture quite skillfully to make himself lean more comfortably. But he didn't pause at all, and didn't even lift his head.

Seeing this scene from a distance, Mama Li always felt that the interaction between Bai Duan and her young master was a bit too much... It was a bit natural, it seemed that she jumped from the shy and sprouting love period to the old couple getting along mode, harmonious and harmonious And harmony.

After helping Bai Duan to straighten her hair, Chu Yao glanced at the game interface on the tablet, and chuckled lightly: "Like playing games?"

"En." Bai Duan nodded and responded casually.

""Xianni" is about to release a game. Just now, Zhaohua Game Company, which bought the copyright of the game from me, called me, hoping that I can contact you for help and let you shoot an advertisement for the online game "Xianni". Chu Yao's tone was flat, "The Qionghua Shangxian played by you has received a sensational response. If you shoot an advertisement, you should be able to attract many players."

It is quite normal in modern society for game companies to purchase Dahong's novels to make games.It's just that most of these games are a one-shot deal, and the lifespan of a wave of fans of novel readers is not long. The game mode is also similar, and there is no innovation. A group of players couldn't tell which novel was which.

However, for the game adapted from his own novel, Chu Yao naturally couldn't allow it to faze everyone.In order to have sufficient control over the game, the rich and self-willed Chu Yao, on the one hand, conquered the game program team of Zhaohua Company with his excellent programming techniques, and became their trusted and respected consultant; With a strong background, he abruptly used money to open the door of Zhaohua Company, and the company he invested in became one of the shareholders and had the real right to speak.

In this regard, the upper management of Zarva Corporation was probably quite caught off guard. They originally wanted to find a popular IP to create a game circle to make a lot of money, but they did not expect to attract a wolf that is not easy to mess with. Really please God It is easy to send God off.

Fortunately, with the participation of the young master of the Chu family, the status of Zhaohua, a third-rate game company, has also risen.And in order to make Chu Yao and Jin Thighs satisfied, so that he would not stir up trouble in the company, Chaohua Company naturally did its best in the game development of "Xianni", and never dared to be perfunctory.

Long before the filming of the TV series "Xianni" started, the game of "Xianni" was already in full swing. Zhaohua Company received a large amount of investment from Chu Yao, and the scale of the company has also been continuously expanded. The team has been a medium-sized company with thousands of people, and has invested a lot of manpower and material resources. Whether it is the operation method, game balance, art screen or plot restoration, it is meticulously crafted. I hope to try my best to create a truly excellent comprehension class. Online games to fill the vacancy in the online game market caused by the popularity of martial arts and historical online games.

After more than a year of meticulous production by a team of thousands of people, the online game "Xianni" has finally completed its closed beta just in time for the popular TV series after it aired. The game that everyone in the company worked hard for became an instant hit, and the upper management of Zhaohua Company naturally also set their eyes on Qionghua Shangxian, who shined in the TV series "Immortal Rebellion", hoping to use this to promote a wave.

Zhaohua Company knew that Chu Yao had a very good personal relationship with the actor who played Qionghua Shangxian, so they called specifically and begged grandpa to tell grandma, and Chu Yao promised well, but when he turned his head, he saw Bai With a perplexed look on his face, he immediately threw the game, the company, and everything else out of the blue, and took care of all the worries and problems of his new lover: "Don't you want to shoot commercials? If you don't want to shoot, don't shoot."

"Can you?" Bai Duan blinked.

"Of course." Chu Yao smiled and gave Bai Duan a reassurance.

"That's great! I really don't want to shoot commercials!" Bai Duan heaved a sigh of relief and nodded repeatedly.When he was surfing the Internet, he had seen a lot of advertisements for online games made by celebrities, such as "Hello everyone, I am XXX, come and play XXX with me!", it felt... so stupid.

After solving the problem of shooting commercials, Chu Yao touched Bai Duan's head, and quickly brought up another matter: "In addition, Zhaohua Company also hopes to buy your portrait rights, and make Joan in the game according to your face." The NPC Hua Shangxian is a gimmick to attract players."

Bai Duan didn't care about such things as "portrait rights". Hearing the words, he nodded indifferently: "That is to say, the Qionghua Shangxian in the game will be very similar to me?"

"If you agree, I will personally make this NPC, and I will definitely not disappoint you." Chu Yao narrowed his eyes slightly - he does not allow the image of his little lover to be ruined by others, he must do it himself to be at ease.

"It sounds very interesting!" Bai Duan's eyes lit up, eager to try, "When will this game be tested?"

"A month later, do you want to play too?" Chu Yao looked sideways at Bai Duan.

Bai Duan's answer is naturally yes.

"Immortal Rebellion" is the first novel Bai Duan read, and it is also the first TV series he participated in. In addition, the world he was born in is a world of comprehension that is quite similar to this, so Bai Duan has a great understanding of "Immortal Rebellion". The feelings are very deep.

If "Xianni" is made into a classic online game, Bai Duan will naturally not miss it, so he must go in and have a good time to make himself happy.

"Okay, I'll play with you when the public beta starts." Chu Yao promised with a smile, "I have participated in the whole process of the development of this game, and I am very familiar with it, even the GM knows it. It’s okay to open a back door, the most important thing is to have fun.”

After receiving a satisfactory answer, Bai Duan nestled back into Chu Yao's arms again, and continued to play the game. Chu Yao held Bai Duan with one arm, and took out his mobile phone with the other. play up.

When Bai Duan was bored, he glanced at the screen of Chu Yao's mobile phone, only to feel that the things displayed on it were very different from other people's mobile phones. A series of strange and inexplicable characters seemed extraordinarily tall and unaware severe.

After a while, Chu Yao let out a "tsk" and raised his eyebrows: "An accident happened to Ichiro Nakano."

"Nakano Ichiro?" Bai Duan thought for a while, then recalled who this person was, and replied in a rather casual tone, "An accident happened so soon? What happened?"

"What happened last night was discovered this morning." Chu Yao's tone was more contemptuous than Bai Duan's, "He's dead."

Mama Li, who was knitting a sweater wearing reading glasses, couldn't help but choked on her saliva and coughed again and again.

Bai Duan slipped out of Chu Yao's arms, walked quickly to Li Mama's side, and pacified her, but said in response: "Oh, if you die, you will die." After a pause, he remembered another The point is, "Where is the ancient sword that he took back?"

"I don't know, it must have been taken away by someone." Chu Yao shrugged.

Bai Duan frowned slightly.He didn't care about Nakano Ichiro's life or death, that person was riddled with evil karma, even if he died, it would be nothing more than death, but he was worried that after the ancient sword killed Nakano Ichiro, it would continue to hurt other innocent people.

After all, Bai Duan also contributed to this incident, "delivering" the ancient sword to Nakano Ichiro, thereby breaking the seal on the ancient sword.If the ancient sword after the seal was lifted continues to harm people, Bai Duan will inevitably suffer some karma—the most important thing is that he will not be able to overcome this hurdle in conscience.

"What? Is that ancient sword important?" Seeing Bai Duan's downcast expression, Chu Yao understood.

"Well, the cause of Nakano Ichiro's death should be related to it." Bai Duan nodded, "I have to deal with it."

Bai Duan's answer was ambiguous, but Chu Yao knew that although his little lover was kind-hearted, he would never let his kindness overflow excessively and cause him trouble.Since Bai Duan said so, it means that there is indeed such a need. As for the more detailed reasons, Chu Yao is too lazy to ask, and there is no need to talk too much.

"Alright, then I'll take you to see the situation." Chu Yao stood up and put his phone in his pocket, "The hotel Ichiro Nakano stayed at is Mandarin Oriental, and the place where he died is also there."

Seeing what Chu Yao said, Bai Duan was naturally unambiguous, and quickly stood up, told Mama Li not to be too tired, and after a good rest, she went upstairs quickly and changed into the clothes she was going out.

Mama Li twitched her lips: "..."

——I always feel that since the arrival of Bai Duan, my young master has become mysterious, and even his personality seems to have collapsed.

——I was happily talking about such a childlike topic of playing games together, but turned around and brought up dead people lightly in the next topic. The gap between before and after this jumps too much, right? !

——And, what about the murderous ancient sword?Could it be that the young master and Xiao Duan were involved in some terrible incident?

Bai Duan and Chu Yao didn't know at all that Li's mother felt very tired today. They packed up their appearance and drove to Huawen Dongfang where Nakano Ichiro stayed. As soon as they entered the hotel gate, they saw several people in police uniforms. The detectives were discussing something in a low voice.

Chu Yao signaled Bai Duan to be safe and calm, and walked over by himself, raising his hand to say hello: "Xiang Dong, why are you here? Is there an accident?"

The police detective whose name was called turned to look at Chu Yao, showing a pleasant smile: "Chu Yao? Long time no see!"

"Long time no see." Chu Yao nodded with a smile, and then introduced to Bai Duan, "This is Cheng Xiangdong, my youngest."

Cheng Xiangdong had heard of Bai Duan's name a long time ago, knew that he was a very famous Feng Shui master recently, and also knew that he and Chu Yao had a very close relationship.

Greeting Bai Duan with a smile, Cheng Xiangdong looked at Chu Yao again: "Why are you here?"

"Xiao Duan has been in Shanghai for such a long time, but I haven't entertained him well and played with him. If I have free time today, I will take him out for a stroll." Chu Yao apologized, "Xiao Duan is not interested in anything. , but for food and dim sum, the Yong Yi Ting in this hotel is not bad, so I made a reservation and brought him to have a taste."

"Yong Yi Ting is really good. Although Jiangnan cuisine is only one Michelin star, it's good to come here once in a while for a change of taste." Cheng Xiangdong nodded.

Cheng Xiangdong grew up with Chu Yao, and he is considered to be a peer with whom he has a good relationship.He was born in a judicial family, and has a strong sense of justice since he was a child. When Chu Yao was gloomy and timid, he often acted as his protector.It's a pity that Cheng Xiangdong's temperament is quite careless, and because he is young, he doesn't have the patience to really walk into Chu Yao's dark heart, so to Chu Yao, he is just a familiar person.

Later, when Chu Yao turned around, he had a lot of insider information about big families and companies, and the partner of the government regulatory agency he contacted after breaking the news was also Cheng Xiangdong.Chu Yao and Cheng Xiangdong benefited each other, Chu Yao defeated the person who had no good intentions for him, and Cheng Xiangdong also had achievements in his hands. With his strong family background, he made a career at a young age, and now he has been promoted to the deputy director. s position.

——This time, the sudden death of Ichiro Nakano, a big Japanese chaebol, was handed over to Cheng Xiangdong, hoping that he could find out the truth as soon as possible so as not to affect the diplomatic relations between China and Japan.

It stands to reason that Cheng Xiangdong should not mention this kind of work to outsiders, but Chu Yao's status is not ordinary after all, and Cheng Xiangdong owes Chu Yao a lot of favors for being able to climb to this position, so when Chu Yao When asked about the cause of Nakano Ichiro's death, he hesitated for a moment, and finally said - anyway, it does not involve murder, even if it is leaked, it will not affect the arrest of the prisoner: "According to the confessions and surveillance of the bodyguards and waiters The video taken by the device can basically rule out the suspicion of homicide. There is no fatal trauma on the body. After forensic identification, it should be a sudden death caused by a heart attack."

"If this is the result of your investigation, please forgive me for not agreeing with it!" Cheng Xiangdong was interrupted by a deep voice, and everyone looked around after hearing the reputation, only to see a man in a light gray suit walking slowly into the hotel lobby. Followed by more than ten black-clothed bodyguards, they seemed particularly imposing.

The man took off his sunglasses, revealing a pair of slightly raised, narrow and sharp eyes. He is about 30 to [-] years old, with a regular face and handsome features. There is a shallow vertical line between his eyebrows, which seems to be habitually locked. It just added a bit of majesty to him.Although he is not as strong as the bodyguard next to him, the man is obviously a Lianjiazi. He has a straight body and capable actions. He is not so much the heir of a big chaebol, but more like a soldier—but his body is different. There is no awe-inspiring righteousness of a soldier.

The man's gaze swept across the entire hall, and he was slightly startled when he saw the white satin, as if he was in a daze, but soon he turned his eyes away, walked towards Cheng Xiangdong, stretched out his hand towards him, and spit out the word "but" with a strange pronunciation Correct Chinese: "This is the grandson of the deceased, Nakano Seita."
