418: Chapter 418 It's a Deal!
Chen Guangke scratched his head and said, "I really don't know where they sell calligraphy and paintings. How about this, I'll help you ask around."
Shen Yan nodded.
"Not the ordinary kind, I want something with collection value."
Chen Guangke said, "Of course I know that. Don't worry, I will definitely help you ask around properly."
Just as Shen Yan was about to say something else, his phone rang. The person calling was Liu Hui.
Because he had been busy these past two days, he hadn't exchanged any messages with Liu Hui.
Seeing her call suddenly, he was quite surprised.
After greeting Chen Guangke, he returned to his office to take the call.
"A Hui, what's wrong?"
When he heard her voice, Liu Hui sounded a bit wronged.
"What? Can't I call you just because I have nothing to do?"
Shen Yan quickly placated her, "No, that's not what I meant."
Liu Hui wasn't actually angry about the matter.
"Alright, I was just joking. What are you doing now?"
Shen Yan pulled out a chair and sat down.
"I'm at the company. Xiao Ya has been mentioning you these past two days, asking when you're coming over to our place."
Liu Hui chuckled.
"I have plenty of time. The only one who doesn't is you."
Shen Yan also smiled.
"It's my fault. I should have told you about this sooner."
As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Hui fell silent for a moment.
Shen Yan keenly sensed that she had something she wanted to say. He said gently, "What's wrong? Did something happen?"
Liu Hui took a deep breath and replied to him, "That... Grandma Liu called me. She keeps asking me... when we're getting married."
Hearing this, Shen Yan was stunned for a moment.
Although he already planned to marry Liu Hui, this was a period of rapid ascent for his career. He didn't intend to spend extra time on getting married, so the marriage would probably have to be postponed for a while.
Thinking this, he said apologetically to Liu Hui, "I'm sorry, I've been too busy recently. It might take a while longer..."
Before he could finish speaking, Liu Hui quickly said, "I'm not trying to rush you. It's just... Grandma keeps mentioning you, and I thought if you had time, I could bring Grandma to see you."
Shen Yan hadn't forgotten that Grandma Liu had helped him during his most difficult time. He said sincerely,
"I want to see Grandma too, but I'm really busy these past two days. How about this: after this busy period is over, I will personally bring gifts to apologize to Grandma at her place."
Liu Hui laughed, "It's fine, it's not a big deal. Grandma also said she knows you're busy and doesn't want to bother you."
"Alright, to put it plainly, I just miss you a little and wanted to call you for a chat."
Hearing this, a wave of warmth flowed through Shen Yan's heart.
"A Hui... After this period is over, I'll take you out to play?"
Liu Hui wasn't very interested in going out to play. She just wanted to stay by Shen Yan's side.
"Forget it. Whenever you have a day off, just staying together like before will be fine."
Immediately after, the two of them were affectionate for a while.
It wasn't until Wu Ya knocked on the door that they hung up the phone.
"Creak..."
Wu Ya walked into the office holding some documents.
"Brother Shen, were you just on the phone?"
Shen Yan replied with a smile, "Yes, talking to my girlfriend."
Wu Ya's expression stiffened.
But quickly, her expression returned to normal.
"Cough... I heard from Chen Guangke that the land issue is settled. I found a few relatively reliable developers for you. Do you want to look at their profiles?"
Shen Yan raised his eyebrows and walked over to glance at the materials Wu Ya brought.
"The information on these developers is quite complete. When did you get this ready?"
Wu Ya smiled and replied to Shen Yan, "Although the land transfer procedures were held up, I believed you would definitely find a way to sort it out, so I had someone check on the more reliable local developers in advance."
Hearing this, Shen Yan sighed inwardly.
Regardless of Wu Ya's personal feelings, in terms of professional ability, Wu Ya was absolutely exceptional and outstanding.
Thinking this, he said to Wu Ya, "Okay, I'll look at the materials. Thank you."
Wu Ya pursed her lips and whispered, "Don't say thank you to me."
Shen Yan didn't hear her clearly.
"What did you say?"
Wu Ya cleared her throat and said, "I said this is all part of what I should do, you don't need to thank me."
"Oh, right, there's one more thing I need to tell you."
Shen Yan lifted his chin, signaling her to continue.
Wu Ya turned around, closed the office door, and said to him, "Didn't you acquire a game company a while ago?"
"The game from that company is indeed done quite well. After we acquired the company, they also modified the gameplay according to our requirements. Now we are just waiting to relaunch the servers."
Shen Yan mused, "Completely changed?"
Wu Ya nodded.
"Their efficiency is very fast, and their capabilities are outstanding. I had the technical staff look at it, and they really did modify it according to our requirements, and they did it very well."
Shen Yan stroked his chin, then made a decision, "Hearing is not as good as seeing, and seeing is not as good as playing. I'll go to their company right now to see how the changes turned out."
"If it's really good, then we'll discuss a promotional plan with the publicity department before the servers go live."
Shen Yan thought Wu Ya was done with what she needed to say, but unexpectedly, Wu Ya was still standing there, not leaving.
"Is there anything else?"
Wu Ya said hesitantly, "That... I heard the company is organizing a team-building event?"
Shen Yan leaned back in his chair and nodded.
"You're talking about that... Yes, I've already announced it. Team building in a week. Of course, if you don't want to go, it's fine; it's not mandatory."
Wu Ya shook her head frantically.
"That's not what I meant. I... are you going?"
Shen Yan replied, "I haven't decided yet. I'll see when the time comes."
Wu Ya pursed her lips, as if making a resolution, and said,
"Since we returned to Company Name, we haven't had any outings with the company Employees. This is a great opportunity to build team morale. I think you should go."
It had to be said that what Wu Ya said made a lot of sense.
Ever since they took back Company Name, they had barely had much contact with the company Employees.
If participating in team building could strengthen everyone's sense of belonging to the company, then he could consider attending.
Thinking this, he said to Wu Ya, "What you said makes sense. I will go."
Wu Ya looked delighted, "Great! Then it's a deal, we'll go together!"
Seeing how happy she was, Shen Yan tilted his head in some confusion.
"You're very happy that I'm attending the team building?"
Hearing the question, Wu Ya gave him a sly smile and said, "Guess?"
After saying that, she hummed a little tune contentedly and turned to leave the office.
