n“Cough, cough!” A group of ladies sat at a table, one of them on a blind date with a man who couldn’t seem to keep his eyes on her. Instead, his gaze wandered toward the corner. She followed his line of sight and though she could only see a side profile, the air of elegance and tranquility about the woman there made her, who considered herself good-looking, feel a pang of self-doubt. She cleared her throat to get the man’s attention.

n“Sorry, I…,”

n“Is she pretty?” the lady asked with a smile.

nThe man hesitated for a moment, his expression somewhat awkward, but his gaze didn’t waver. Finally, he nodded and spoke the truth, “Yes, she is.”

n“Then, between the both of us, who looks better?”

nThis question was a minefield. .𝒎

nThe man contemplated for a moment, “Both of you are different.”

n“What’s the difference?”

n“You are very beautiful, but she has a great temperament.”

nSatisfaction flashed in the lady’s eyes. She liked the straightforwardness and honesty, “I think we can exchange WeChat contacts to make it easier for our next meeting.”

nThe man smiled. “It would be an honor.”

nMeanwhile, Shen Wan, sitting in the corner, was completely unaware that her inadvertent presence had actually facilitated a connection between two destined souls.

nShe came here to wait for someone.

nSuddenly, a shadow loomed over her, “Have you been waiting long? Sorry, sorry…”

nZhou Chi dropped his suitcase, pulled out a chair, and sat down directly, feeling like he had come back to life.

n“What’s with the weather in Ning City? It’s already August, and it’s still so hot.”

nShen Wan signaled for a waiter. “Get him a glass of soda.”

nZhou Chi added, “Make it with ice!”

nThe waiter nodded and walked away with a smile.

nShen Wan kicked the suitcase at her feet, “Are you planning to stay here for a while?”

n“I’d love to! But unfortunately, I have to fly to Jingping this afternoon.”

n“For what?” 𝘪.𝑐ℴ𝘮

n“There’s a mobile game development conference over there, and Qihang received an invitation. I’m going to check it out.”

nAlthough he said it casually, the fact that Zhou Chi was willing to leave his current work to attend the conference in person indicated its significance.

n“Has Qihang grown to the point where it receives invitations like this?”

nOut of the many game studios, only the top ones received invitations to such events. Qihang had just started, so it was a reasonable question from Shen Wan.

nZhou Chi received the soda the waiter brought and said, “A while ago, we submitted a small game for a competition, and Xunya showed interest in buying it. After that, we had several other companies approaching us. We’ve gained some recognition now.” He had a look of “I’m quite troubled by this” on his face, but there was a hidden smile at the corner of his lips.

nShen Wan also smiled. “And the paperwork?”

n“I almost forgot!” He pulled out a document from his bag and pushed it over. “I signed the acquisition contract before, and now the transfer contract is ready. If you could just sign it, I’ll take it back to Mr. Yi, and his legal team will help with the corporate changes and equity transfer.”

nIn the matter of acquiring Mingya, Zhou Chi played only the role of a bridge, facilitating communication between Yi Hong and Shen Wan.

nOnce the ownership of Mingya was finally confirmed, he could consider his mission accomplished.

nShen Wan signed her name, and with that, Mingya had come full circle and was now in her hands.

n“After you return, please thank Mr. Yi for me. If there’s a chance, invite him for a meal in Beihai.”

nZhou Chi placed the document safely, “OK, I’ll convey your message word for word. I’m in a hurry to catch my flight, so I’ll leave now…”

nShen Wan said, “I’ll go with you.”

nAfter leaving the cafe, Zhou Chi took a taxi to the airport, while Shen Wan prepared to head back. Suddenly, her phone rang.

nShe glanced at the caller ID and raised an eyebrow.

nQuan Hanting?
