The General Manager's Office.
Lin Xuan tossed a thick stack of documents to Lei Hui.
"King of Pesticides?"
"What's this?" Lei Hui asked, puzzled.
"It's the game proposal. You can start hiring people to develop the game."
Lei Hui had previously managed a company that also developed games.
Hearing Lin Xuan's words, he immediately became interested and picked up the game proposal to read.
Anything that came from Lin Xuan was never ordinary.
Lei Hui began flipping through the pages.
Lin Xuan, on the other hand, sat leisurely on the sofa, sipping tea.
After just a few pages, Lei Hui's eyes lit up with immense joy.
He hurriedly started reading the details about the heroes!
His eyes grew even brighter.
The descriptions of the heroes' skills were comprehensive, covering cute types, tough guys, and handsome ones.
Not only would boys enjoy playing it, but it would also attract many girls!
He had a feeling that if they could develop this game according to the proposal, it would definitely become a huge hit!
But...
Lei Hui frowned and asked, "Boss, creating such a large-scale game will require a significant investment. The funds in our company's account might not be enough."
"It's fine. Our animated series is set to air on TV next week, right? By then, we should see some funds flowing back in."
"As for the remaining gap, I'll cover it."
By then, the stocks of Fenghui Group that he had bought from Lin Chang could also be sold.
That would bring in another large sum of money.
Lei Hui: "..."
He had almost forgotten that the man in front of him was not someone short on cash.
"Boss," the secretary hurried in.
"Lin Chang is here. He wants to see you."
Lin Xuan frowned.
The secretary was aware of the issues between Lin Xuan and the Lin family, so he asked, "Should I tell him you're not here?"
"No need."
Lin Xuan thought for a moment and realized that Lin Chang was here because of the animated series.
Lin Chang wanted him to return to the family.
But Lin Chang's plans were destined to fail this time.
"Just tell him I'm busy and that he'll have to wait," Lin Xuan said.
"Yes."
"Oh, and one more thing," Lin Xuan added, "No need to entertain him. Let him sit there by himself."
"Understood, Boss."
The secretary immediately followed Lin Xuan's instructions.
He went downstairs.
"Mr. Lin," the secretary said with a smile, "Our boss is currently busy and can't see you right now. Would you like to wait here or come back later?"
Lin Chang sneered.
So, his rebellious son Lin Xuan was finally willing to see him.
As he had expected, Lin Xuan was feeling the pressure. Only if he stopped targeting Starlight Group would the company have a way out.
Lin Xuan, for the sake of the company, had no choice but to compromise with him.
"I'll wait here," Lin Chang said. "I'll wait until Xuan is done."
The secretary nodded and went back upstairs to attend to his duties.
Lin Chang frowned.
Did Starlight Group have no sense of etiquette?
It was no surprise, given that Lin Xuan, who had no formal background, was running the company. They clearly didn't understand proper manners.
Lin Chang had no choice but to find a seat and sit down.
He kept glancing at his watch.
An hour passed.
Two hours passed.
Lin Chang asked the receptionist countless times, but the answer was always the same: Lin Xuan was busy and he would have to wait.
Lin Chang began to suspect that Lin Xuan was deliberately keeping him waiting.
He wanted to leave, but today was the final deadline Shen Qianqian had given him.
He had to meet with Lin Xuan today!
He couldn't delay any longer!
Meanwhile, Lin Xuan was chatting with Su Hua.
[Ah Xuan]: Hua Bao, I've missed you in the three hours we've been apart.
In the meeting room, Su Hua looked at her phone, a slight smile forming on her lips.
She lowered her head, her slender fingers tapping on the screen as she replied to Lin Xuan.
[Me too.]
The executives in the room felt the cold atmosphere dissipate. When they looked up, they saw Su Hua smiling!
The only person who could put Su Hua in such a good mood was her boyfriend.
The executives' eyes lit up in unison.
Great!
Their savior had arrived!
Su Hua put her phone away, and the icy demeanor she had earlier completely vanished.
"Let's continue," Su Hua said expressionlessly.
The meeting ended.
"Mr. Su's boyfriend is amazing. Just a few messages can make her so happy," the executives commented.
They were extremely grateful to Lin Xuan!
Another three hours passed.
Finally, Lin Xuan arrived in the lobby.
He raised an eyebrow and asked, "Mr. Lin, you came to see me?"
Lin Chang scrutinized Lin Xuan, his frown deepening.
Given the issues with the animated series not being approved, shouldn't Lin Xuan be looking haggard?
Why did he still seem so confident and energetic?
"What were you doing just now?" Lin Chang asked sternly.
"What I was doing is none of your business, Mr. Lin," Lin Xuan replied with a light laugh.
"Lin Xuan, what kind of attitude is this?" Lin Chang began to adopt the tone of a patriarch again.
"Mr. Lin, just tell me why you're here," Lin Xuan said.
He sat down on a chair, crossing his legs and leaning back in a relaxed posture.
Lin Chang spoke in a serious tone, "If you return to the Lin family and agree to marry Shen Qianqian, I will stop targeting your company."
"Are you talking about the approval of the animated series?" Lin Xuan raised an eyebrow.
"Lin Xuan, those two animated series were just a warning. If you continue to refuse to marry Shen Qianqian, I will launch a full-scale attack on your company."
Lin Chang's expression was cold as he continued, "The TV dramas and films you're currently shooting will not be approved, and I will also blacklist all the artists under your name."
"As long as I don't give the green light, your company will not survive in the entertainment industry!"
Lin Xuan chuckled.
"Mr. Lin, are you so confident that you can destroy my company?" Lin Xuan's eyes were filled with mockery.
"Lin Xuan, your Starlight Group has only been around for a few months. You've just entered the entertainment industry. Starlight Group has deep roots. If I want to crush your company, it would be as easy as stepping on an ant," Lin Chang said with full confidence.
He had never taken Starlight Group seriously.
"Oh? Is that so?"
Lin Xuan raised an eyebrow, "But my animated series has already been approved, and it's set to air on the children's channel next week."
"So, Mr. Lin, your first move against Starlight Group has already failed."
Lin Chang's frown deepened.
Approved?
How was that possible?
He had already made arrangements, and the other party had promised to block Starlight Group's animated series!
Lin Chang said coldly, "Lin Xuan, you've become quite the liar, haven't you?"
"It seems Mr. Lin doesn't believe me. Why don't you check the children's channel's official Weibo account?"
Lin Chang, seeing Lin Xuan's confident expression, felt a sinking feeling in his heart.
Could he be telling the truth?
Lin Chang took out his phone, logged into Weibo, and searched for the children's channel's official account.
Sure enough, he saw "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf" and "Detective Conan" listed in their programming schedule for next week.

] This is a dark fantasy-themed dating simulation game. The main gameplay involves containing various monster girls and investigating the truth of a world shrouded in mist alongside your companions. However, due to his love for the dark and bizarre atmosphere, Luo Wei ended up turning a dating game into a detective mystery game. Women? Women only slow down his quickdraw! To Luo Wei, the female leads in the game are more like tools to perfectly clear levels and squeeze out rewards. For Luo Wei, flirting with every girl he meets and then discarding them is standard procedure. Worried about characters losing affection points? No need. With his maxed-out charm stat, Luo Wei is practically a "human incubus." A little psychological manipulation and those points come right back. It's a bit scummy, but the paper cutout heroines in the game won't actually come at him with real cleavers. However... Luo Wei has transmigrated. He's accidentally entered the second playthrough of this game. His past actions have caused all the girls to transform into terrifying yanderes. Due to the game's setting, most of the heroines he once contained are "troubled girls." Obsessive, twisted, mentally unstable, all aggressive yanderes... The type who will kill you if they can't have you... Luo Wei wants to cry but has no tears left. "I really just want to survive..." In short, this is a story of battling wits and engaging in a love-hate relationship with yanderes.
esick Sect? Well, at least it's considered a respectable orthodox sect. Wait a minute— What kind of vibe are you all giving off? Shouldn’t this be a love-struck, romance-obsessed sect? Why does everyone here sound more like demonic cultivators? "Master, today he’s getting married. This disciple wishes to descend the mountain and crash the wedding, then toy with him to death right in front of his wife..." "Elder, I only got into your sect through connections, so why won’t you teach me anything?" "Because I also became an elder through connections." Thankfully, Su Ji was just an outer sect labor disciple. Surely, nothing too crazy would— "Junior Brother, you’ve broken through to Qi Refining. Once you sever your useless spiritual root, you can officially become an outer sect disciple." "The Great Dao is merciless. Don’t let a worthless spiritual root waste your essence and spirit, hindering your cultivation." Is this really the Lovesick Sect? ... Three years later, Su Ji sat in the seat of the Lovesick Sect’s sect master, sighing with emotion. His rise to this position all started when his junior sister adamantly insisted on preserving his "spiritual root." "Mmm... Senior Brother, what’s our relationship now?" "Stop talking. Keep going." "By the way, that newly promoted top-tier sect—didn’t they come to buy our Love Beans?" "One top-grade spirit stone per Love Bean—is that really so expensive?" "I suspect they’ve eaten too many Love Beans." "Now they’re lovesick." Well, this really is the Lovesick Sect after all.
