Chapter 763

Three days later, Chen Yang was in his office looking at the financial report of the Modu branch of Old Hundreds Agricultural Products Trading Company when Wang Qingyun stormed in with a dark face.

Chen Yang, you arranged for Shangguan Yan to be placed at Three Stone Technology Company—are you doing this just to disgust me on purpose?

Chen Yang feigned surprise and looked at him, saying, "Uncle Qing Shu, you already left, didn't you? Why are you suddenly concerned about Shangguan Yan again?"

Wang Qing Shu was stunned. He hadn't mentioned his whereabouts to anyone; it was only yesterday, while playing the Extreme Speed Racing game, that he discovered an annoying bug, which prompted him to go to Three Stone Technology Company on the spur of the moment. He didn't expect to be recognized by Shangguan Yan as soon as he showed up.

You let Shangguan Yan go to Three Stone Technology Company as a supervisor—are you not deliberately trying to watch over me?

Uncle Qing Shu, you're wronging me." Chen Yang feigned helplessness and said, "Shangguan Yan has no relatives in Modu; my wife felt sorry for her, so I arranged a job for her.

I originally wanted her to handle the demolition work in the staff community, but my wife's uncle disagreed, saying the demolition work is complicated; if anything went wrong, he couldn't explain it to the elders of the Wang family. After all, she's the future daughter-in-law your father appointed for you! So I thought it over and decided the only place to put her was the game company. After all, besides the two old lechers Tang Qingquan and Wu Jingzhong, nobody there would dare provoke her.

Upon hearing this, Wang Qing Shu's face instantly tightened. "Chen Yang, most of the employees at the game company are male, and there are two lecherous major shareholders—how could you let her go there? Isn't that throwing a lamb into a tiger's den?"

I also told Shangguan Yan about this, and she didn't object!" Chen Yang paused, then gently soothed Wang Qing Shu: "Don't worry—everyone in the company knows she's mine, so they'd never cause trouble. As for Tang Qingquan and Wu Jingzhong, they have other businesses and rarely come by more than once a month.

Hearing this, Wang Qing Shu let out a slight sigh of relief. But he soon frowned again. "No way—if she keeps staying at Three Stone Technology, what am I supposed to do?"

Chen Yang feigned surprise and asked him, "You want to go back to Three Stone Technology?"

Wang Qing Shu nodded, his tone dissatisfied as he complained: "I've only been gone a few days, and those good-for-nothings in the technical department have churned out a bunch of bugs again—really unsettling. If we keep dragging this out, when will we ever be able to do a public test?"

Chen Yang echoed his sentiment: "The technical department's recent work efficiency really isn't satisfactory. I was just about to greet General Manager Wang and have him go to the talent market to hire more elites…

Upon hearing this, Wang Qing Shu immediately waved his hand: "No need to waste money—I'll handle it myself. However…

He gave Chen Yang a solemn look and said, "Can't you transfer Shangguan Yan elsewhere? Seeing her every day makes my heart feel uneasy."

Chen Yang laughed: "You don't even fancy her, and you'll never end up together—what's there to be afraid of?"

Wang Qing Shu scratched his head embarrassedly. Although he also found it unbelievable, the Shangguan Yan of twenty years ago had indeed made his heart pound for a long time. Thinking of how he had fled to Beautiful Country to become a monk for several years to avoid such a beauty, while reflecting in the inn he had harshly whipped himself several times.

Chen Yang, you also know that someone like me, a scion of an aristocratic family, sometimes finds it hard to defy parental orders and matchmaker's words.

Chen Yang struggled to suppress his urge to laugh, then seized the moment: "Since you're willing to accept fate's arrangement, keeping Shangguan Yan at Three Stone Technology is me creating the best opportunity for you to get to know her. You should seize it properly!"

No way!" Wang Qing Shu's head immediately shook like a rattle drum, and he said with some difficulty: "I haven't yet explained the past misunderstanding to her, nor have I gained her forgiveness. If I do something else that causes her to misunderstand again, it's all over.

Chen Yang hadn't expected Wang Qing Shu to still believe in love at first sight; he laughed and encouraged him: "What's there to fear? Shangguan Yan is now isolated and helpless, with only the Wang family as her backing. As long as you have no objections, there's an eighty percent chance she'll choose to marry you."

Upon hearing this, Wang Qing Shu's face showed a hint of joy, but he still hesitated a bit.

Only eighty percent? That means there's still a twenty percent chance she'll refuse!

Chen Yang, is there any way to make her agree a hundred percent?

Chen Yang was a bit surprised by Wang Qing Shu's reaction. He also didn't know what had happened during his encounter with Shangguan Yan, or how things could suddenly do a complete 180-degree turn.

However, this turned out to be a good thing for him.

Uncle Qing Shu, if you want Shangguan Yan to willingly marry you, the most important thing is to give her a sense of security. If you keep being like you are now—obsessed with games all day and doing nothing—it'll probably be hard to win her over.

Upon hearing this, Wang Qing Shu paced anxiously back and forth in Chen Yang's office. After a while, still unable to think of a solution, he could only look at Chen Yang with a pleading gaze: "Great niece's husband, aside from tinkering with computer programs, I have no other talents. What can you do to make her interested in me?"

Seeing that he had taken the bait, Chen Yang calmly said: "If you want Shangguan Yan to appreciate you, you must do something that shocks the nation, even the world. Coincidentally, I have a great plan here—I don't know if you're interested in taking on the challenge."

Wang Qing Shu couldn't wait to ask: "What plan? Hurry up and tell me!"

Chen Yang said seriously: "I plan to move the Old Hundreds E-commerce Platform and the Extreme Speed Racing game onto mobile phones in the next few years, letting people worldwide shop and play games on their phones. I don't know if you're interested in forming a team to develop the related mobile APP."

Wang Qing Shu stared at Chen Yang, utterly bewildered, even thinking he'd misheard: "Great niece's husband, mobile phone screens are so tiny—who would use them to play games? As a seasoned gamer, I advise you not to waste time and money!"

Chen Yang responded calmly: "Current phone screens being small doesn't mean they'll stay that way in a few years. As far as I know, several foreign tech companies are already researching multi‑touch capacitive‑screen phones and smoother mobile ecosystems. Once successful, the mobile industry will face a huge upheaval."

Wang Qing Shu looked at Chen Yang, a bit surprised: "Great niece's husband, I have a close classmate doing tech R&D at Fruit Company; they're currently developing multi‑touch capacitive‑screen phones. But you've never been to Beautiful Country—how do you know this?"

Chen Yang laughed: "I'm a major shareholder of Fruit Company—is it really that hard to know some internal news?"

Wang Qing Shu heard this and felt it also made sense. He already knew about Chen Yang's investment in Fruit Company when he was studying abroad in Beautiful Country. At that time, he never imagined that one day he would become related to Chen Yang.

However, he was still somewhat reluctant to join this plan. "Even if touchscreen phones are successfully developed, they would take a long time to be accepted by the public. By that time, many people will already have developed related apps; how could I possibly make myself remembered by everyone in the world?"

Chen Yang earnestly said to him: "Rest assured, as long as you can develop an APP that satisfies the public, I will take care of making your name known throughout the world!"
