MY BEAUTIFUL BRIDE, VOLUME 8 - Season 13 Episode 3

The moment he entered, he saw Lin Che hanging onto Gu Jingze like a sloth.

“What the…” Gu Jingyu exclaimed and quickly turned away.

“Oh my, my eyes are getting sore. They hurt.”

Sore eyes? More like crossed eyes.

Lin Che blushed and quickly hopped off.

Why didn’t he knock before entering?

“Hey, is the door closed for nothing? Why didn’t you knock?” Lin Che asked.

Gu Jingyu said, “Sis, this is the study room. How would I know that you’d do that in a study room…”

Lin Che blushed again. “What do you mean by that? We… We were talking about proper stuff. Hmph.”

Just then, Gu Jingze stood up calmly and walked to him. “Has the rent been paid?”

“Yes. Hey, I already said I don’t want a salary!”

“Very good. The first month’s rent is settled. Let’s calculate the second month.”

“…” Gu Jingyu said, “Hey, nobody is as bad as you.”

Gu Jingze asked, “Isn’t it normal to pay three months’ rent in advance?”

“Other people only need to pay a few thousand yuan for their rentals!”

“Well, my rent here is a little more expensive.”

Only a little?!

Lin Che looked up, still unsure about what he was trying to do.

Gu Jingze said, “Lin Che’s game just entered the market. Since you’re already part of their film, why don’t you be the ambassador?”

“…”

Gu Jingyu said, “I always charge eight-digit figures and above for endorsements!”

“Oh. My rental fees have always been nine-digit figures and above.”

“…”

What a bully.

Gu Jingyu still wanted to protest.

Gu Jingze said, “Oh, right. The family recently found a famous rich man’s daughter for you. I heard that she came back from Austria.”

“…” Gu Jingyu quickly said, “Fine, fine. I’ll do it. It’s just an endorsement. It’s no big deal.”

Lin Che heard this and immediately jumped up to him. “Really? You want to be our game’s ambassador? Hehe, that’s great! We’re definitely going to attract all the fangirls.”

“…”

Did he want to be an ambassador?

Lin Che turned around to look at Gu Jingze.

Although he was playing dirty, business was important.

With Gu Jingyu as ambassador, there would definitely be results. Of course, she would not reject this.

Beaming at Gu Jingze, she felt that he was really too good to her.

Meanwhile, Gu Jingyu could only look sullenly at this wicked-heart husband and wife.

“Lin Che, you’ve really been influenced by Second Brother!”

The old Lin Che wasn’t this bad!

The next day, Gu Jingyu went to Kaisheng to sign the endorsement contract.

Everyone was also very surprised when they heard that Gu Jingyu was going to be the ambassador.

Gu Jingyu sighed and sat there, looking as if he just sold his soul.

Lin Che was all smiles as she tried to coddle Gu Jingyu. “You won’t lose out, really. Our game is very popular. Just play it and you’ll know. We’re almost up to a hundred million players now and it hasn’t been long since our public release!”

Gu Jingyu said, “I thought escaping from the Gu family meant escaping from the fire pit. Who would have thought that I’d land in another pit?”

Lin Che still thought that it was funny.

She turned around to look for KG. After what happened the last time, KG was a lot more obedient. Whenever he looked at Lin Che, he seemed rather remorseful.

KG gave her some data.

“These are our data after the public test. Take a look.”

Lin Che said, “Gu Jingyu is going to be our ambassador. You can create an ambassador code, especially for him. I’ll ask him what username he wants. Hehe. Then we’ll give him specially created clothes, make his character dazzle a little more. Oh my, he’ll definitely attract all the fangirls.”

KG said, “Okay.”

Lin Che asked, “What do you think? I don’t really know these things either.”

KG replied, “I know nothing about publicity. You don’t have to ask me.”

Lin Che said, “Although you say that, you guys are the game creators after all. I still have to seek your opinion.”

Lin Che continued, “We agreed from the beginning, didn’t we? You guys joined as a studio and thus, we are partners. We discuss everything. If there is anything we have done badly, you can also tell me directly.”

KG looked at her deeply. “No, I think all is good.”

Crooked Neck laughed and chimed in, “That’s right. Whatever Sister Che does, KG will think it’s all good.”

KG glanced at him.

Crooked Neck quickly changed his tone. “Because Sister Che is truly very good. We all think so.”

Crooked Neck was not lying either. They didn’t have any other wish. To be able to produce this game and see the name of their studio included in it already made them satisfied.

Lin Che already gave them the respect they agreed on, and she even surpassed their expectations. She asked for their opinion in every aspect. This made them feel that they really were important and that their opinions and rights were respected. This was enough.

Crooked Neck said, “Sister Che, people from school have been asked to come practice here recently. Oh my, we started out as just a studio. Now, we’re going to work with such a big company. And of course, everyone is so envious of us.”

They would never forget this. Lin Che gave them this opportunity, which allowed their studio to flourish.

“Other investors are also approaching us. They want to poach us over to make games for them.”

Lin Che’s eyes widened. “Wow! Getting poached so soon? You’re not giving me face at this rate.”

Crooked Neck said, “We’re definitely not going! Who could be better than Sister Che?! We’re not going no matter how much money they offer us. Furthermore, they’re not offering as much as Sister Che did. Our stake in this game is worth so much while they’re only giving a measly salary. Who would want that?”

Lin Che beamed and said, “Good, good. You’re not bad at bootlicking.”

Although these were said in good humor, Crooked Neck was also serious about it.

Both sides of the agreement had shares in copyright and dividends as long as the game was done well. They would get more if the game was successful.

The students have just entered society, but they’ve already found their first pot of gold. They were already ahead of their peers by miles.

But they also knew that this could only happen if they did the game well.

Lin Che looked at the group. In the beginning, they were full of vigor. They were still the same now but with so much gratitude. She was very happy.

She did not lead them astray. Instead, she allowed them to achieve the results that they were satisfied with. This also was a relief to her.

The information about Gu Jingyu’s endorsement for Ray of Light was out. Sure enough, it attracted a huge wave of attention.

In the game, Gu Jingyu gave himself a very domineering name – Dancing Light. The team even created a special ID for him. They also made him wear shiny armor. When he appeared in the game, he would be hard to miss.

At the same time, all the registered players added him as a friend. However, Gu Jingyu naturally would not chat with them. He had a special group only for people he knew. Others would be in another group. Some outsiders would request to join his group, but he would not be notified. But the moment he went online, all the players would be notified: “Your friend, Dancing Light, is online.”
