Chapter 175 - 175: The Matter With Night Paris Cannot Be Dragged On Any Longer
Shen Wan logged into her email using Zhou Chi’s computer, downloaded the progress report, printed it out, and began reading it immediately.
Her browsing speed was not slow, but for Shen Wan, it was an exceptionally thorough review.
Compared to Zhou Chi’s initial concept, the basic framework and competitive rules of the game had been extended and expanded, much like originally sketching a bridge and eventually perfecting it into a masterpiece like the “Along the River During the Qingming Festival”.
Both the overall concept and the detailed design were close to perfection, demonstrating the team’s dedication and formidable capabilities.
Shen Wan wasn’t very familiar with game development, so she had been consciously studying during this period. The results seemed promising, as she could now understand most of the professional terminology.
The report spanned a full twenty pages. Shen Wan annotated it in the blank spaces, and when she encountered parts she didn’t fully understand, she conducted searches on academic papers through online databases. Finally, she summarized her feedback and sent it to Zhou Chi.
After completing all these tasks, she realized that four hours had passed unnoticed.
She had a quick meal downstairs and encountered an elderly woman collecting recyclables on her way back. The woman was carrying two large bags of plastic bottles and walking briskly.
Both of them entered the same single-unit building. “Oh? Young lady, do you live here?”
Shen Wan neither confirmed nor denied it.
“But I remember there used to be a young man living here, right? Second floor, Apartment 2-1, that’s correct… But maybe he moved out, and the landlord rented the place to you, right?”

“All, that young man was quite nice, but he got on the wrong side of some people. Moving out might be for the best, I hope he can avoid trouble.” The old lady mumbled.
Shen Wan’s expression changed slightly. “Got on the wrong side of some people?”
“Well, it’s just my guess. Some burly guys came to this place a while ago, in the middle of the night, and they frightened everyone! I peeked through the door crack but didn’t dare to go out…”
Shen Wan pondered for a moment, her gaze growing darker. “Do you remember roughly how long ago this happened?”
“It was at the beginning of this month. Young lady, it’s probably better not to rent this place alone. In case those people come back, it won’t be a joke!”
“Alright, I’ll move out today. Thank you.”
It seemed that she couldn’t delay dealing with the Night Paris matter any longer.
Things calmed down at Mingya for a while after the “tardiness incident”. However, the peace didn’t last long. As days passed, the impact of the “lateness controversy” gradually diminished.
Soon enough, the company atmosphere started to become lax once again.
Although tardiness was no longer an issue, work efficiency remained generally low. For instance—
“If I’m not mistaken, the copywriting task was assigned last week, and it’s now the sixth day. You’re telling me it’s not finished yet?”
The leader of the copywriting team, Chen Xiuwen, kept her head lowered, her long hair falling over her shoulders and almost covering her entire face.
Shen Wan said firmly, “Speak up!”
The woman’s figure trembled. This was the first time she had seen Shen Wan lose her temper, and it filled her with an indescribable fear as if an invisible hand was choking her, making it increasingly difficult to breathe.
Standing nearby, Choi Yun sighed, lowered her tone, and reminded her, “Don’t you have an explanation to give?”
“I do!”
“Then say it, let President Shen know.”
“I… It’s not that 1 don’t want to write. The problem is, that the creative team hasn’t provided the specific framework for the advertisement. I don’t even know the content, so how can I write the copy?”
Choi Yun turned to Shen Wan and asked, “What do you think, President Shen?”
Shen Wan’s gaze remained calm. “Go and bring the leader of the creative team here..”
