At the start, I tricked the school beauty, and ended up with twins?

"Huaimin, what do you think?"

As the elevator doors slowly closed, Chen Tian finally struck up a conversation with Dong Huaimin beside him.

Dong Huaimin, who had been following Chen Tian in silence, was slightly startled when Chen Tian suddenly addressed him. He then looked toward Fu Jiangxin beside him.

Fu Jiangxin, appearing utterly composed, stared straight ahead, ignoring him.

"Old Chen, you're asking me, but I'm no longer the general manager of Shengda, so my opinion doesn't matter!"

Dong Huaimin said with a wry smile on his face, having already left Shengda Group; the group's actions no longer related to him.

"What about Jiangxin then?" Chen Tian turned the conversation to Fu Jiangxin.

Finding no escape, Fu Jiangxin coughed twice and slowly said, "Cough, cough, the group has gone back to its old ways of making games, which is a good thing! After all, it's our forte. It shouldn't go astray, haha."

Fu Jiangxin finished speaking and chuckled.

Chen Tian discerned a hint of awkwardness in Fu Jiangxin's smile.

And he himself also felt quite embarrassed.

His embarrassment was not because Shengda had returned to its old trade but because Shengda was even collaborating with Tencent in game development!

A company that initially thrived by developing games now had to collaborate with a direct competitor in the industry...

This was somewhat face-losing.

But he had no choice now. He had long since left Shengda, and Chen Qiao recently conducted a major purge of the senior management, leaving almost no old associates who had a say or could take charge.

Now, Shengda was wholly controlled by his son.

"Old Chen, don't worry too much; it might still turn out to be a good thing! Tencent is currently thriving in the domestic gaming industry. Maybe Shengda can hitch a ride and get a share of the pie."

Dong Huaimin, seeing Chen Tian's concern, spoke reassuringly.

"Yeah, maybe it is a good thing?" Fu Jiangxin added optimistically.

Even though the two old friends tried to console him, Chen Tian's brows remained furrowed.

That's Tencent... If Shengda were at its peak, perhaps it could share the stage with Tencent; but now, when Shengda is weakened, not to mention getting a share of the pie, it would be good if Tencent didn't take away Shengda's bowl altogether!

Tencent, clearly capable of developing games on its own, chose to collaborate with Shengda, which likely would hold it back. There definitely was a reason behind this.

And the reason, invariably, was profit.

Shengda needed the massive gaming industry traffic from Tencent, whereas what Tencent eyed in Shengda remained unknown.

"Ding!"

The elevator descended to the first floor, and with a ding, the doors opened.

Two female administrative staff stood at the doorway.

"Hello, Chairman Chen, Mr. Dong, Mr. Fu!" The two female staff hastily greeted the three men upon seeing them.

Chen Tian waved his hand, "I'm not any Chairman Chen; your Chairman Chen is upstairs in a meeting right now."

After speaking, Chen Tian walked out of the elevator with Dong Huaimin and Fu Jiangxin, leaving the Shengda Group building.

Chen Tian stood at the company's entrance, took out his mobile phone, opened Feixin, and browsed through his contact list.

Seeing Gu Yu's Feixin avatar, he instinctively wanted to contact Gu Yu, but then he remembered Gu Yu had gone abroad, so he turned to contact Pu Tongren instead.

[I'll be at your company soon; there are some matters I'd like to discuss with you.]

Chen Tian sent Pu Tongren a voice message.

Pu Tongren responded immediately: [Okay, Mr. Senior, I'll wait for you.]

... Your next chapter is on My Virtual Library Empire

Ideal Paradise.

After Pu Tongren replied to Chen Tian, seeing the eyes of Yu Shutong, Qin Shan, and others fixed on him, he immediately said, "Old Mr. Chen will be coming over later. Let a few people come with me to prepare to greet him."

"Old Mr. Chen?"

Several employees didn't know who the Old Mr. Chen mentioned by others was, so they curiously asked.

"Um, Mr. Chen Tian."

Pu Tongren explained.

"Mr. Chen Tian!! Chairman Chen!?" The expressions of the new employees immediately turned to one of surprise.

A while ago, Chen Qiao had come by here, but now Mr. Chen Tian, the most revered Chairman of Shengda, was also visiting today?

Many who were unaware of the relationship between Chen Tian and Gu Yu were a bit confused.

What was Chen Tian doing coming to Ideal Paradise? Was he coming to acquire it?

"Laosan, and you guys, come with me. Old Mr. Chen is our honored guest and must be treated well."

Yu Shutong ordered Qin Shan, then casually picked a few more spirited employees to follow him.

As they left the development department, the first thing Pu Tongren arranged was for them to clean up the employee recreation room and also to make some freshly ground coffee and afternoon snacks.

"The recreation room?" An employee wearing thick black-framed glasses asked, puzzled.

With a big-shot like Chen Tian coming over, shouldn't he be hosted in the drawing room... Why clean the recreation room?

But since he was just a junior employee and Yu Shutong had given the instructions, he went ahead and followed them.

After assigning tasks to his team, Pu Tongren took Qin Shan for a visit to the sales department and the administration department.

They only did one thing— looking for pretty girls.

They picked the three most beautiful women in the company and then had them change into the maid outfits from the last team-building session...

"President Pu, this isn't really nice... 'I perform arts, not my body'..."

"Ah, President Pu... why suddenly have us dress up like this? Is it for a company promotional video? I want a raise!"

The two women said coquettishly; although they were puzzled, they still changed into the maid outfits.

Because they knew the company surely wouldn't arrange this without reason, and it was unlikely to have any inappropriate intentions towards them.

"Master, please instruct~"

The last beauty walked out of the changing room and directly blinked at Qin Shan.

Pu Tongren and the other two female employees: "..."

This is absurd! The immersion speed is too fast!

Straight into character in a second!

Qin Shan was completely stunned by that.

Blushing, he struggled for a long time, only uttering one word: "Cool."

"Pfft... hahaha!" Everyone burst into laughter.

This was the first time they had seen Qin Shan so reserved, just like a young boy who had never been in love.

"Alright, alright, stop teasing, actually, it's nothing serious. We just have a big shot coming over soon, and we hope you can help host. The big shot doesn't have any special hobbies; he just loves two things in his life: playing games and playing games with beauties."

Pu Tongren glanced outside the company door, a black luxury car was just visible, looking for a parking spot at the company's entrance.

He recognized the car; it was Old Mr. Chen's favorite Audi A4L.

"Ah? So we're meant to be companion players? That's fine, but he won't get handsy with us, right?"

A female employee with short hair finally understood what they were supposed to do but still asked with some concerns.

"Don't worry, the old man just likes to look at beauties. He's not that kind of perv; I wouldn't let you do anything secretive,"

Pu Tongren knew their concerns and thus clarified it openly.

The three nodded their heads, finally feeling relieved

Seeing the car door open and not even waiting for the old gentleman to get out, Pu Tongren, followed by Qin Shan with big smiles, went out to meet him.

"Old Mr. Chen, welcome to our Ideal Paradise! Please come this way!"
