Pursuing Her Best Friend after Confession Failed

In a standalone villa at Xinghe Bay, after they finished breakfast, Zhong Tingyue saw Li Yuan answer a call with a delighted expression. When he hung up, she teased him.

"Senior, what great news did you get? You look so excited."

Li Yuan chuckled. "One of our company’s games has finished development and is ready to enter the internal testing phase, so I can’t help but be excited."

Xia Zhijin, who had been eating her breakfast quietly, immediately thought of the heavily invested game when she heard Li Yuan’s response. She asked in pleasant surprise, "Has ’Honor of Kings’ been successfully developed?"

Li Yuan nodded. "Yes, it’s essentially finished. After the internal testing phase, we’ll fix any potential bugs that crop up. Then we can officially launch it..."

Bai Weixi took a sip of millet porridge and stared curiously at Li Yuan and Xia Zhijin. "Brother, is the game you’re talking about an online game?"

Li Yuan saw the slightly puzzled expressions on Zhong Tingyue and Bai Weixi and explained with a smile, "I told you about this a while ago, and I even took you to see the development, remember? It’s the game our company’s White Jade Capital studio has been working on. Its name is ’Honor of Kings.’ It’s a large-scale multiplayer online battle arena game for PC, aimed at the university student demographic... I’ve invested more time, manpower, money, and energy into this game than any other project. Now, I’m finally about to see the results..."

Li Yuan’s voice was filled with excitement.

He was already imagining ’Honor of Kings’ dominating the market after its launch, raking in a fortune every day... This game was a crucial step for him to achieve financial freedom and complete his own capital leap.

Seeing Li Yuan’s excited expression, Zhong Tingyue asked in surprise, "Senior, is this game really that amazing? This is the first time I’ve ever seen you so excited!"

This groundbreaking game, ’Honor of Kings,’ was the project Li Yuan valued the most. Now that he was on the verge of seeing the light of victory and about to begin internal testing, how could he not be excited?

"Yes, it’s incredibly important. The financial prospects are limitless. I estimate that if this game is a success, it will be worth at least ten billion and will be a truly groundbreaking title. Heh, with this game, the few of us can kick back and enjoy life for the rest of our days..."

Hearing Li Yuan’s answer, Zhong Tingyue and Bai Weixi chuckled, both incredibly curious about what kind of game could warrant such an extravagant description.

"Brother, can we come and see it too?"

Li Yuan smiled. "Of course. This is our family’s business."

When the three girls heard Li Yuan use the phrase "our family," they instinctively glanced at each other, faint smiles appearing on their faces.

Their relationship had grown stronger recently, partly because they were spending so much more time together. But aside from living under the same roof, there was another reason: they all firmly believed the story Li Yuan had told them about their past lives and trusted in his feelings for the three of them.

"Zhijin, Bai, Little Moon, come on, let’s go to the company and check it out."

Li Yuan immediately drove the three girls to Datang Technology Company.

In the spacious conference room, Li Yuan, Xia Zhijin, Zhong Tingyue, Bai Weixi, Hu Zhenqiang, Xie Zheng, Lin Yuwei, Tan Zhonghua, and other core members of the company, along with more than a dozen operators, gathered together, ready to demonstrate the game ’Honor of Kings’.

As the head of the White Jade Capital studio, Hu Zhenqiang was also very excited. Full of confidence and ambition, he approached Li Yuan and the three lady bosses to report.

"Director Li, everyone, the entire framework for ’Honor of Kings’ is complete. Please allow me to present it to you..."

Li Yuan was also very eager. He’d been so busy lately with the ’Milk Tea Girl’ selection event, establishing a film and entertainment company, recording an album, and celebrating Xia Zhijin’s birthday that he really hadn’t seen this version of ’Honor of Kings’ yet.

Li Yuan gestured with a smile. "President Hu, why don’t you give everyone a detailed introduction?"

Hu Zhenqiang clapped his hands and had the operators turn on their computers for a live demonstration.

Upon launching the game, a familiar and stirring voice resounded: "Welcome to Honor of Kings..."

Li Yuan looked at the game’s graphics. While they couldn’t compare to the mobile games from his previous life, they were definitely among the best for this era.

"Director Li, this is our startup animation. It’s adapted from the backstory you wrote and primarily depicts the world of ’Honor of Kings’... In ancient times, the great Primordial World shattered, forming world fragments in different dimensions. Under the influence of a supreme set of rules, races from these various fragments gathered in a special area called ’King’s Canyon.’ There, they began to battle for different titles, propelling their own worlds toward advancement. The ultimate goal is to reunite the different world fragments and complete the unification of the Primordial World..."

Hu Zhenqiang spoke eloquently about the roughly three-minute startup animation, giving a general overview of the backstory for ’Honor of Kings’.

Li Yuan nodded frequently. The backstory of ’Honor of Kings’ in the original timeline was already quite good, especially its background animations, which were very nice. It was jokingly referred to by many players as a company that "makes games with its feet but makes animations with its heart."

As a web novelist in his past life who had read countless online novels, Li Yuan had personally drafted the new backstory, building upon the original ’Honor of Kings’ lore and integrating the setting of the mythological Huaxia Primordial World.
