Jing Yang had already lived in the world of the super game era, therefore creating good games in this current world when the game industry has not existed for a long time is not difficult for him. Furthermore, the team He Lang prepared for him were excellent, and the effects he wanted were essentially completed, with the exception of a few minor errors that could be swiftly fixed under his supervision.
There are far too many companies producing Xianxia online games. Jing Yang thinks that also making one was pointless. It's time to provide gamers new experiences they've never had before, therefore he created games set in the interstellar era.
Jing Yang, who always hates working overtime, began doing so for a few hours each day in order to complete the game as quickly as possible.
Every time Jing Yang and his team worked overtime, He Lang would show up with food. Everyone on that floor who also worked overtime received a portion.
Even the tiredness vanished every time they ate a lavish dinner. They consider working overtime to be a blessing. Furthermore, their salaries were improved once they worked on this floor under Jing Yang. Other colleagues had previously assumed they had been exiled, and they were relieved that they had not been chosen. Now, they were all envious when they know how they're treated.
Jing Yang was staring at the computer, with one hand on the mouse and the other on his chin. He Lang and his assistant arrived with lunch boxes in Jing Yang's office.
The assistant walked away after placing the lunch box on the table. He Lang removed the plates from the two lunch boxes and placed them one by one on the table. He walked over to Jing Yang's side, holding the desk and keeping an eye on him, "Eat first, then continue after."
Jing Yang nodded, but his gaze remained fixed on the computer screen. He persisted on finishing the last point before standing and twisting his neck.
He Lang raised his hand to help him massage his shoulders and neck. After he recovered, he was puzzled as to why he, who had never done anything like this before, had done it so effortlessly. But did not stop and continued to massage Jing Yang.
"That one, to the left, yes, there, stronger," Jing Yang did not care when He Lang touched him, and he didn't think it was weird for He Lang to do so. He was used to it anyway, and he was an expert at directing He Lang to massage him until he was satisfied.
Jing Yang took a seat at the table, glanced up at the piled-high plates, and looked blankly at He Lang, saying, "I've recently put on a lot of weight. I don't think I need this much. Can you bring simple meals next time?"
He Lang gave Jing Yang a careful look and replied, "I think your weight is just fine. Working with your brain consumes a lot of energy. It's been quite difficult for you recently. It's better to make amends."
"I'd like to express my gratitude to Mr. He for the people you arranged for me. They are not only capable, but they also communicate well and follow my instructions." Jing Yang said.
"It's because you're more capable than they are, and they're eager to follow your instructions. They also told me that they learned a lot from you." He Lang had warned them not to make it difficult for Jing Yang. Although they had listened, they remained skeptical in their hearts. However, after learning about Jing Yang's abilities, they were convinced and eagerly followed Jing Yang's instructions.
"In short, Mr. He saved me a lot of trouble." Jing Yang picked up his chopsticks.
"Xi Sheng has made some significant moves recently. They're hiring high-profile people and offering them extremely good terms, and they're looking for people all over the place. Even the recruiter has came here. Are you aware of this?" He Lang said.
"I've been so preoccupied with work lately that I didn't notice their moves." It came as no surprise to Jing Yang because he had already predicted that they would do so. So what if they did hire a fantastic employee? In this current world, it's impossible for someone to be a better game developer than himself.
"You never really put them in your eyes, so you don't care what they do, since you know they're not your opponents, right?" He Lang looked at Jing Yang with an adoring smile on his face.
"Don't look like you know me," Jing Yang remarked, looking at him blankly. "We're not that familiar with each other yet, aren't we?"
"I believe familiarity does not comes with time, but rather with the feeling of getting along with one another." He Lang said seriously, "I have the impression that I have known you for a long time. It doesn't matter if you don't feel it like me, even if it's a shame. After a while, it'll become familiar."
Jing Yang was engrossed in his meal and did not respond to him.
"Speaking of it," He Lang said abruptly, as if recalling something, "I seem to recall having dreamed of you before, and it was a really special dream."
"Don't tell me you're dreaming about me in spring dreams," Jing Yang glared at him.
Jing Yang was only reborn in this world recently; He Lang claimed to have dreamed of him; therefore, it must not be him now, but the original Xi Le.
"No, that's not the case, although it is similar." He Lang could still recall the scene from his dream.
"How is it similar?" Jing Yang asked, putting down his chopsticks and folding his arms.
"It began a long time ago, and I had the same dream on a regular basis. I hugged, kissed, and touched someone in my dream, and he leaned in my arms and acted like a baby. Despite the fact that he always wears clothes from different eras, occasionally even a fish tail, and I can't see his face properly, I have the impression that he is always the same person."
Jing Yang was taken aback and asked, "How can you be sure that the person is me if you can't see his face clearly?"
"For some reasons, the face of that person has gradually become visible, although it is not very clear. However, the outline allows me to visualize him."
Actually, He Lang didn't use the face to figure out who was in the dream; instead, he relied on instinct, and that instinct convinced him that the person in the dream was this person in front of him. "Although the face is still not very clear, his eyes are exactly the same as yours," he replied, looking at Jing Yang's eyes.
Jing Yang had no idea what to say to him, so he closed his eyes, took a big breath, and decided to end this conversation.
"Let's eat." Jing Yang picked up his chopsticks and continued to eat.
He Lang took a long look at Jing Yang. He noticed that Jing Yang's mood seemed off, so he didn't continue and ended the topic as Jing Yang desired. The two ate their dinner quietly.
After eating, He Lang left, but when Jing Yang finished his work and was about to leave, he returned and wanted to personally send Jing Yang home.
Jing Yang obediently got into his car and said when he started the car. "Mr. He, you're such a hard worker; being a meal deliveryman and also a driver. Should I be flattered?"
"You don't need to be flattered; you just need to be pampered." He Lang said, looking in the rearview mirror.
"Don't say such things, I'll assume you have other intentions," Jing Yang said, rolling his eyes.
"What if there's another intention?" He Lang asked.
"No!" Jing Yang grumbled, could he still not understand this guy after so many lives? Even if he says no, it will be of no use; he will undoubtedly do what he wants.
He Lang smiled but remained silent. He did not take Jing Yang's words to heart as Jing Yang had predicted. No one could stop him once he made his decision. He's determined to go after Jing Yang and would stop at nothing to get him.
"Thank you for sending me back," Jing Yang said to He Lang before getting out of the car.
"You have worked hard too." He Lang reached out his right hand and extended it towards him.
Jing Yang looked at his hand, puzzled as to why he suddenly wanted to shake hands. Jing Yang's heart was tangled as he worried that if he shook hands with him, He Lang would push forward impulsively.
Even though Jing Yang didn't extend his hand, He Lang's hand continued to reach out, and he didn't mean to take it back.
Jing Yang could only extend his hand and shake it. He Lang, thankfully, gripped his hand and then let it go. Jing Yang was relieved, thinking that if he had jumped and pushed for it, he wouldn't be able to make it today.
It's not that he doesn't want something to happen; it's just that his heart is a little confused when he thinks about what He Lang said, and he needs some time to think calmly.
Jing Yang took a fast shower and then laid on the bed, thinking about He Lang's words.
Cui Yan began to dream about his previous life after seeing his painting, but all he remembered was the time when Jing Yang was a mermaid. However, He Lang had already begun dreaming his previous life even before Jing Yang was here, and according to his description, he dreamed about more than one life.
Jing Yang is unsure if this indicates that anything horrible is about to happen. He has no idea if his lover began recalling memories from previous lives, can his brain, as a normal person, handle so many memories? What if there's a lapse in memory?
With impatience, he scratched his hair. He hated the idea that he has no control over matters, especially those involving his lover.
Jing Yang is restless both lying down or sitting. He simply got out of bed, strolled to the window, and stood there in the dark, looking up at the starry sky, attempting to relax.
Jing Yang closed his eyes and turned on the system. He wanted to see if he could figure out how to fix the problem. Because he didn't know what to look for, he just searched about his lover's data in every life to see if he could find an answer.
After searching for all of He Lang's information in this life, Jing Yang moved on to search for his lover's information in other lives, but he was surprised to discover that he couldn't find it! There is no information about him in other lives except for this life. How is it possible?
Jing Yang became alarmed, wondering why his lover information had vanished. What is going on here? Could it be that the system can only search for information in the current world, but not from other worlds? He attempted to find his own information from previous lives, but was also unable to do so; the system provided no results.
Jing Yang exhaled a sigh of relief, knowing that the system could only search for information about one world, as he had suspected. Jing Yang attempted to find other people in his previous life in order to determine his own thoughts, and then... he found them.
What exactly was going on? Jing Yang couldn't understand why the system couldn't search for information about him and his lover's in previous lives, but could for the others.
Jing Yang was in such a state of anxiety that he threw himself on the bed and covered his head with a pillow, desperately analyzing the situation. Jing Yang abruptly rose up from his bed after a lengthy period of thought.
Every time his life came to an end, his soul was returned to the system, and he was given power, but those powers vanished quickly. The system is unable to look up information about himself and his lover in previous lives. Could it have something to do with the powers that were attained and then vanished? Do such powers reflect himself or his lover? Is it possible that it's both of them?
The system emitted some energy, so Jing Yang's mood gradually improved, and the panic and distress in his head faded away. He's not sure if the power came from the system or from somewhere else. That power not only calmed his heart, but also gave him the sensation of regaining control.
He knew that he is not an ordinary person, that he possesses an extraordinary soul, and that his lover, like himself, can reincarnate multiple times, and that he, too, is not an ordinary person. Therefore, he must have confidence that any challenging situation will not be a problem in front of them.
