To ascend, I had no choice but to create games

Chapter 434: Chapter 260 Good Days Are Here (First Update)_1

“Yes, Leader, I understand. Send the document to my FeiXin, and I’ll check it out as soon as I get off the train and find an internet cafe. It needs to be done tonight? Okay, got it, I understand,” Wu Wei said.

As soon as he got off the high-speed train, Wu Wei received a call from his supervisor.

The other party began with a flurry of criticism, speaking in a sarcastic tone, expressing that Wu Wei’s recent leave demonstrated a complete disregard for the company as if it were his own family, a typical example of undisciplined and unorganized behavior.

In the end, they still assigned Wu Wei a new task, asking him to create a PPT to illustrate the company’s development direction for the following year.

No data, no reference cases, Wu Wei had to figure out the development direction himself, and the requirements document could not exceed sixty words—asking any further questions only made the other party get angry first.

After hanging up the phone, Wu Wei had just managed to breathe a sigh of relief when he saw a flood of text messages from the other party’s FeiXin, long enough to almost trigger his PTSD.

Text could exert such immense pressure, Wu Wei thought his boss must have been a hydraulic press in a past life; otherwise, why would he take such pleasure in applying pressure?

The content was nothing more than the usual reminders for Wu Wei to take things seriously, saying that although the earlier conversation was a bit harsh, it was fundamentally for his own good. @@novelbin@@

Not bothering to read it all, Wu Wei paused a few minutes before replying, “Understood, Leader. I will definitely take you as a role model and study hard.”

His tone was so sycophantic that it disgusted even him, but the other party quickly responded with a smiley face.

After an exchange of figurative insults in his head, Wu Wei walked out of Rong City Station.

Rong City Station wasn’t too far from the experience center, so Wu Wei didn’t bother hailing a cab. Instead, he scanned a bicycle by the roadside and cycled straight toward his destination.

Unlike the city where he lived, Rong City had a distinctive scent to it.

It was dinner time now, and the hotpot restaurants by the street were already packed with people. Those with a bit of fame had crowds outside, and the boiling scent of hotpot assailed him as he passed, almost making Wu Wei sneeze.

Even though he couldn’t visit the famous pub street, the impression of Rong City being a food paradise was firmly planted in Wu Wei’s mind along with the scent of hotpot.

There was no lack of street food available.

Perfectly grilled lamb skewers, open-air barbecue stalls, dessert shops every few meters—with a dental clinic next to each, the dentists inside smiling at the milk tea buyers as if they saw money trees that could walk.

The streets bustling with cars and pedestrians were a stark contrast to Wu Wei’s long hours at work and made him feel somewhat unaccustomed. The overtime lifestyle had made him forget what a normal city felt like, bringing with it a sensation of strangeness.

As the destination got closer, Wu Wei began to panic more.

Games are a business too, and those who make games aim to make money. What did the experience center want to earn from such a grand prize draw, even covering travel expenses?

He was just an ordinary citizen living paycheck to paycheck, with nothing valuable but his kidneys. Could Fang Cheng Studio possibly be interested in his kidneys?

Or was it possible they planned to ship him off to some distant place for a continuous, destructive harvest?

Thinking of this only increased Wu Wei’s panic.

He composed a text on his phone to send to a friend, instructing them to call the police without hesitation if Wu Wei hadn’t contacted them by midnight.

After taking this precaution, he finally felt a bit safer.

Parking his bike outside, Wu Wei gazed at the experience center from afar.

Located within the city’s first ring, not far from Rong City’s fashionable center, the venue’s chic factor was significantly high.

Even though it was a temporary setup, the experience center’s transparent glass walls offered a full view of the inside, infusing it with an air of artistry.

While Wu Wei didn’t quite understand what artistic genre it represented, he felt that property prices here must be steep.

So, you really don’t lack money, huh? What’s all this effort for?

After much hesitation, Wu Wei finally made up his mind.

In he went!

Clutching his free meal voucher, Wu Wei entered the experience center with trepidation.

He must have been among the first to arrive, as there were no other lucky individuals to be seen, only a few staff members waiting for customers.

As he entered, the receptionist politely requested to see his experience voucher. After verifying it was valid, she pointed inside and said, “Your machine is number fifteen. Please change into a set of pajamas before the experience, which you may take home afterward. The changing room is over there. Our machines are sterilized after each use, so there’s no need to worry about hygiene issues.”

“You’re giving away pajamas?” Wu Wei asked, surprised, “And why do I need to change into pajamas, anyway?”

“Comfortable and snug clothing can increase the success rate of entering deep sleep, which is why we recommend changing into pajamas,” the staff member explained politely. “By the way, have you eaten yet?”

“Not yet.”

“Then I recommend that you eat first. Here is a list of our cooperating businesses. Just give your voucher to a place of your choice. If you don’t want to eat out, you can order takeout to the hotel, and we will reimburse you. The hotel is over there.”

Following the direction pointed out by the staff, Wu Wei saw a hotel that would cost him a week’s salary for just a one-night stay.

Looking at the provided list of partner businesses, Wu Wei found it covered nearly all sorts of cuisines, including Chinese and Western, and each was just as pricey as the others.
