Chapter 558: Chapter 558 An Early Birthday Gift

Jiang Xu came to Jiang Xiaoyan’s company.

Inside her office, Jiang Xu casually sat on the couch, “What cool thing do you have for me?”

“Come here,” Jiang Xiaoyan beckoned to Jiang Xu with a crooked finger.

With a touch of curiosity, Jiang Xu walked up to Jiang Xiaoyan’s computer desk. The screen was displaying a game.

“Isn’t this the Legendary-like game you asked me to help with last time?” “Yep,” Jiang Xiaoyan nodded, “It’s finished, and we’ve done all sorts of testing Give it a try.”

After she said this, she got up to let Jiang Xu sit down.

The chair was warm from Jiang Xiaoyan’s prolonged use.

Jiang Xu’s attention quickly fell on the game.

He tried it out.

And made a surprising discovery.

Whether it was character modeling, handling, animation transitions, or plot mechanics, everything was top-notch.

To put it a bit arrogantly, it was no worse than World of Warcraft!

Jiang Xiaoyan said with a grin, “How about it, shocking isn’t it? This is using the latest engine.”

“Indeed,” Jiang Xu nodded, “Once this game is released, as long as there aren’t any major operational issues, a net profit of several hundred million a year is definitely in the bag.”

Jiang Xiaoyan said, “I’ve decided to change the name of this game, you help me pick one.”

“Hmm…” Jiang Xu pondered for a moment, “How about ‘Glorious Legend’?”

“Not bad, pretty good,” Jiang Xiaoyan nodded again.

“Huh?” Jiang Xu looked at her curiously, “What’s with that expression on your face?”

Today’s Jiang Xiaoyan seemed to be forcing a smile.

“I…” Jiang Xiaoyan managed a weak smile, “I’m leaving for Bear Country tomorrow, and probably won’t be back until the New Year.

‘Glorious Legend’ was originally meant to be a birthday present for you.

But now, I can only give it to you in advance.”

Jiang Xu was astonished, “Why all of a sudden are you going there?”

“It’S my dad’s request,” Jiang Xiaoyan said in a low voice, “This is the last trial he’s given me.

If I make a success of it in Bear Country, he will give me all his assets.

We won’t be able to see each other for at least half a year.”

“So that’s how it is,” Jiang Xu was moved.

This silly girl, she’d been preparing his birthday gift way in advance.

And when it was her birthday, what he gave her was quite ordinary.

“Looking at your expression, you don’t seem too bothered,” Jiang Xiaoyan said with a hint of reproach, “I guess you can’t be like when Nuonuo went abroad, flying over once a week.”

“That’s a different situation,” Jiang Xu shrugged, “Come to my house tonight, I’ll call some other good friends over, we’ll throw you a farewell party.” Jiang Xiaoyan waved her hand in irritation, “Let’s talk about it later, you can go now, scurry off.”       ⁶

Jiang Xu scratched his head.

We were just talking nicely, why the sudden outburst?

Jiang Xu was pushed out of the office by Jiang Xiaoyan.

Then she sat back down at her desk, opened a certain foreign website with a fierce expression, “Damn it, I’m in a bad mood, I’ll take it out on you guys!” A website created by some hacker overseas collapsed without warning, resulting in widespread paralysis.

Taking out her pain on others had always been Jiang Xiaoyan’s way of doing things.

After leaving Jiang Xiaoyan’s company, Jiang Xu sent messages to An Nuonuo, Zhou Qingyue, and Bai Xiaoya.

He asked them to come to his place that evening to hold a farewell party for Jiang Xiaoyan.

They would have a barbecue.

The phone vibrated, Jiang Xiaoyan had sent the entire ‘Glorious Legend’ software package to her own private email.

Her private email was self-created and could accommodate very large data.

He went to the company and downloaded the software package. Then he found the gaming department manager, “I’ve developed a new game, let’s use all our resources on this game, and also…”

He made a lot of demands.

To ensure that the game could continue to run healthily.

Otherwise, he would be letting down Jiang Xiaoyan’s hard work over this period.

The manager of the game department was internally startled.

What kind of game was this that the boss personally made, and he was actually allocating the majority of resources to it?

Not daring to ask more, what the boss said was final.

Afterward, Jiang Xu went out alone to prepare a gift for Jiang Xiaoyan.

Time quickly reached evening.

Several girls arrived as promised.

Knowing Jiang Xiaoyan would be abroad for a long time, they all prepared gifts.

An Nuonuo gave a safety amulet.

Zhou Qingyue gave a necklace.

Bai Xiaoya gave a bracelet.

Thank you, guys,” Jiang Xiaoyan said with a smile on her face, feeling somewhat touched in her heart.

She had thought she would not have any good friends.

But unexpectedly, thanks to Jiang Xu, she also had several good friends who treated her sincerely.

“Where’S your gift?” Jiang Xiaoyan looked at Jiang Xu with a feigned ferocity, “If you don’t have one, this lady is going to skin you.”

“Of course I’ve prepared it, but didn’t bring it here,” Jiang Xu shrugged his shoulders, dodging Jiang Xiaoyan’s playful punches, “I’ve arranged for two female bodyguards for you.

They will follow you when you go over there.”

The corners of Jiang Xiaoyan’s mouth curved upward, “That’s more like it.”

Out of all the gifts, the one from Jiang Xu was her favorite.

“Alright, alright.” Jiang Xu clapped his hands, “Let’s get the barbecue going.”

In the backyard of his home, the barbecue grill was already set up.

A few people got busy.

To eat barbecue, it’s definitely more delicious when it’s charcoal-grilled.

Jiang Xu acted like an idle shopkeeper.

Sipping a drink on the side, watching them busy themselves, he felt quite comfortable.

His cellphone rang.

He answered.

He didn’t speak, just listened quietly.

“I got it.”

A few minutes later, Jiang Xu hung up the phone.

It was his subordinate reporting on the investigation involving Su Cheng. This woman didn’t have any problems, her background was very clean. Both domestically and abroad, she hadn’t done anything illegal or disorderly. Since this was the case, she could start her job.

He sent a message to Su Cheng, telling her she could come in tomorrow.

“Jiang Xu, what are you spacing out for, come and eat,” Bai Xiaoya called out to Jiang Xu.

Jiang Xu smiled, “Here I come.”

On the eve of departure, there was definitely going to be drinking.

An Nuonuo also got quite drunk by them.

In the end, it was just like always.

Except for Jiang Xu, all the girls ended up drunk.

Jiang Xu shook his head.

He carried each of them back to their rooms.

Jiang Xu woke up at just past six the next day.

After washing up, he headed to the kitchen.

He took out flour, eggs, and the like, and began making cookies to finish before

Jiang Xiaoyan boarded the plane, to take with her to eat.

In Jiang Xu’s heart, Jiang Xiaoyan had the same importance as Fu Yanjie; both were very important friends.

Even though Jiang Xiaoyan always entertained the idea of ‘devouring’ him as a friend.

“What are you doing?”

Just as he was halfway through, a lazy voice came from behind.
