Chapter 284: 184 Satisfaction (Part 1)_1
Players are now chasing after the remnants of the Sect online, discussing the relationship between Gods and the secular world, and then piloting their spaceships to fight against Shadows.
Lin Nan began to create some mini-games using the existing game mechanics, such as farming and terrain editing, to make the game more interesting.
No one was pressuring her during this process; even Huang Ping said that the workload wasn’t much—just come in whenever—and that made Lin Nan feel this was simply the best place to work.
And when the bonus payment was calculated at the end of the month, she was so surprised at her seven-figure bonus that she couldn’t close her mouth. When she saw that other people’s bonuses could reach eight figures, she was so shocked that she started hiccupping, which didn’t stop until after work.
Veteran employees participated in more projects, and every new game release boosted the sales of older games, so such achievements were quite normal.
The income, the environment, and the self-motivation made Lin Nan’s blood boil with excitement, wishing a new game project would appear immediately so she could show off her knowledge and skills.
Although tomorrow is Saturday, next Wednesday is Labor Day, and the studio will probably arrange a day off in lieu; there will be two days to get more familiar with the previous games.
Just as she was gearing up to dive into work, she heard Fang Cheng say, “Let’s all take a good rest this weekend. I’ve noticed that recently a few comrades tend to work overtime on weekends, though it’s not obvious. Still, I hope everyone can pay attention to this.”
Lin Nan sheepishly lowered her head, then realized that others were doing the same.
Uh…
I guess I do fit in after all.
But then, she noticed that Fang Cheng seemed to place particular emphasis on the weekend.
Just when she wondered whether to ask about it, she heard Huang Ping ask, “Boss, aren’t we adjusting workdays for tomorrow?”
“I don’t find adjusting workdays particularly friendly, so I don’t accept it.”
“So, are we working as usual next Monday and Tuesday?”
“Others are resting while we’re working, which I also don’t think is friendly. So let’s take these two days off as well. After the five days off, everyone can come back.”
Looking at Fang Cheng’s peaceful demeanor, Lin Nan felt sure he was settling some private scores as a warning not to work overtime.
The boss is really petty, huh.
Once all the work was wrapped up, Fang Cheng realized it was already time to leave.
He rubbed Sanmiao’s head, the little creature sleepily getting up and rubbing against Fang Cheng before elegantly jumping down to the floor and heading over to play with Lin Nan’s power switch.
Xu Qingling, having packed up her files and waited until almost everyone had left, approached Fang Cheng and handed over two amusement park tickets.
It was no longer working hours, so she changed her form of address and asked directly, “Fang Cheng, Rong Cheng Happy Valley has some new attractions open. Do you want to go have a look tomorrow? I have extra tickets, and Tian Xuan can join too.”
Tian Xuan was still playing with Sanmiao but looked up at Xu Qingling, then at Fang Cheng, and shook her head vigorously, indicating she would not go.
Fang Cheng picked up the tickets and pondered.
The amusement park was worth a visit; the inspiration for “Botanic Garden” had come after a previous visit, and “The Supreme One” had elements of a theme park too, proving that going out for fun indeed broadened one’s horizons and sparked inspiration.
It was a pity that Tian Xuan wouldn’t go; it would’ve been good for her too.
And lately, Tian Xuan had been staying out all night, preferring to hang out with Little Heavenly Way at Heavenly Tao Internet, and he hoped she wouldn’t pick up any bad habits from those young Little Heavenly Ways.
After he had thought it through, Fang Cheng put down the tickets and said to Xu Qingling, “Alright, then let’s meet at the entrance of the Happy Valley at nine o’clock tomorrow morning, okay?”
Xu Qingling touched her chest and let out a sigh of relief; her hanging heart finally settled, and a bright smile appeared on her face, “Sure, see you tomorrow.”
At 8:30 in the morning, a long line had already formed in front of the gates of Rong Cheng Happy Valley.
In the waiting area next to the entrance, Xu Qingling sat in the shade, sipping sparkling water while waiting for Fang Cheng to arrive.
She was wearing the earrings that Fang Cheng had given her, her delicate earlobes looking smooth as jade highlighted by the earrings.
Her upper body was clad in a long beige knit sweater, and below she wore jeans with sneakers; her simple makeup made her look proper and graceful—an existence that could attract countless glances just by sitting still.
Recognizing that she still had time to spare, she took out the visitor’s guide again to double-check the route, only to hear a familiar voice say, “Sorry for the long wait.”
“Fang Cheng, why did you also come so early?” Xu Qingling asked in surprise.
“I had a feeling you would come early, so I prepared to come a bit earlier as well.”
Xu Qingling looked at Fang Cheng, feeling that her boss was becoming increasingly considerate.
Queueing up for the entrance, Xu Qingling pulled Fang Cheng onto the tour bus.
Knowing that Fang Cheng wouldn’t know what to do, Xu Qingling had already planned out their route, and confidently said, “Leave it to me; you just need to bring your brain.”
Seeing Xu Qingling so confident, Fang Cheng started to feel a bit of anticipation and then asked, “What’s the new attraction?”
“A haunted house. It’s designed by experts and is the super-scary type. Although I haven’t tried it myself, I’ve heard good feedback—it scared so many people that they swore they’d never come back.”
“That’s high praise, but such feedback doesn’t seem good for the amusement park’s reputation.”
“Don’t worry about it; the haunted house is just a tool for attraction, similar to a gimmick in a game. After getting scared in the haunted house, visitors can wander around the adjacent theme park. The contrast in emotions enhances the fun.”
