Chen Yuting was thinking this way when Gao Huang came over and said to her, "My lady! Have you been thinking about your husband lately?" Chen Yuting replied, "Yes! I've been thinking about him a lot!" They began to kiss. It had been a long time since Chen Yuting last kissed her husband. This time, they kissed while watching a TV drama. As the on-screen couple passionately kissed, Chen Yuting held her beloved man tightly, not letting go. After the kiss, Gao Huang inspected the various facilities at Mingzhu Hotel and noticed a strange phenomenon—some of the facilities were quite outdated. He then asked Chen Yuting, "What on earth is going on here?" Chen Yuting replied, "These facilities require a lot of money. If we want to improve them, we'll need funds!" Gao Huang said, "I don't care! If there's no money, I'll find it. Above all, we must upgrade the quality of these facilities. After all, high-quality service is what attracts customers. Above all, high-quality service lies in enhancing service facilities! Chen Yuting thought it over and agreed. So she said, "Good! Husband! We should also bring forward more facilities from our Yi Yu Cheng Shen Catering Group!" "Only then can we attract customers to dine with us. We must keep pace with the times!" After hearing this, Chen Yuting, standing by, clapped her hands in approval. Soon, Yi Yu Cheng Shen Catering Group launched a series of reforms—scaling up hardware facilities, implementing competitive hiring for service staff, and providing on-the-job training—thus fundamentally improving the group's image and service quality. Gao Liang and Chen Yuting are jointly dedicatedly managing the Wei Yu Cheng Shen Catering Group, driving its further growth and development. All employees at Wei Yu Cheng Shen are delighted by Gao's arrival and guidance. Gao is approachable—despite his high position, he is down-to-earth. When some employees face family difficulties, Gao has asked Chen to issue consolation allowances, bringing warmth to their families and giving employees greater peace of mind. Since many of the staff are female, special care is essential to enable these women to work with confidence and comfort. Gao has boldly reformed the group, making significant changes to its culinary standards. The chefs hired must master the signature dish, "Huā Hào Yuán Huá Rén Píng An" (The Blossom of Harmony, Bringing Peace and Well-being), a dish Chen Yuting excels at preparing—especially in authenticity. Many customers have come specifically to taste this dish. To ensure customer satisfaction, especially for those who travel from afar or come specifically to experience the cuisine, Gao has implemented quantitative management. That is the panel of culinary experts composed of consumers, internal staff, servers, chefs, and myself together with Chen Yuting, who evaluates each chef's culinary skills. Those who meet the standards are retained, while those who fall short are firmly terminated. This principle of promoting the capable and demoting the mediocre has fostered a vibrant, competitive atmosphere among the internal chefs, greatly stimulating their culinary development. They continuously learn and discuss culinary techniques, naturally elevating their skills. As a result, my Yucheng Shen Group has gained widespread recognition, attracting an increasing number of customers. Previously our main competitor has been gradually squeezed, with no room to counteract. At critical moments, Gao Liang has saved my Yucheng Shen Group. Gao Liang has enabled the further growth and expansion of my Yucheng Shen Group in Kyoto. Our Yujucheng Shen Catering Group has now firmly established itself at the top of Kyoto's five-star hotel rankings, rising from third place to first—a remarkable achievement. Gao Liang has been instrumental in driving the group's rapid growth. An increasing number of visitors from across the country have continuously come to the headquarters, Meng Zhu Grand Hotel of Yujucheng Shen Catering Group, in pursuit of their dreams. Chen Yuting implemented reforms as instructed by Gao Liang, revitalizing the group with a fresh and renewed energy. The group has adopted standardized operations. To further strengthen its brand identity, Gao Liang thought creatively, integrating the name "Yujucheng Shen Meng Zhu Grand Hotel" into the game, and introducing a dining experience specifically crafted by Yujucheng Shen Catering Group. The diverse culinary offerings within the game have captivated countless players. To be honest, after becoming the CEO of Electronic Arts, with the authority to make decisive decisions, Huang Guang immediately instructed Dian Mengna to integrate our Mengzhu Hotel, part of the Yu Wushi Shen Catering Group, into Electronic Arts' popular "Need for Speed" game series. This move would allow game enthusiasts around the world to experience and develop a deep appreciation for Chinese cuisine. Huang Guang's vision has been remarkably far-sighted, instantly making our Yu Wushi Shen Catering Group a global destination of aspiration. Our Yu Wushi Shen Catering Group is also undergoing sweeping reforms—not only focusing on Chinese cuisine but also expanding into Western dining, blending both traditions, and deeply researching culinary specialties from around the world, thus truly aligning with the diverse needs of global consumers. Huang Guang's strategic leadership has propelled our group to remarkable growth. At the 1018 private dining room on the 10th floor of Mengzhu Hotel, Huang Guang and Chen Yuting raised their glasses in celebration, enjoying the rich banquets laid out before them, both deeply delighted. Because today is Chen Yuting's birthday, Gao Liang asked Chen Yuting to close her eyes and make a wish. Chen Yuting closed her eyes happily, made her wish, and then blew out the candles all at once. Afterwards, she shared the cake. A red rose was passed to her by Gao Liang's hands. Gao Liang presented her with a sparkling diamond ring, which made Chen Yuting very happy and excited. Gao Liang personally fastened the ring on her finger, and Chen Yuting was immersed in happiness. At that moment, a song drifted through the room—Shang Wenjie's "Give You Happiness." "Thousands of times I've asked myself where my life and my love lie, and the answer has always come in the name of passion. I sincerely tell you: love is simply my unwavering devotion. Come, friends, let me sing the song that lives in my heart. Come, friends, give you a clear sky, and let the wings of love soar across this world—give you happiness. When the night is still and quiet, I release my thoughts, my efforts, my dreams—often forgetting myself, my deep affection flowing gently and continuously. In silence, I tell you: love is simply my lifelong giving. Come, friends, let me give you a sun. Come, friends, give you a green field, and let the beauty of this world graze freely—give you happiness. Come, friends, let me give you a sun. Come, friends, give you a green field, and let the beauty of this world graze freely—give you happiness." Chen Yuting felt an overwhelming sense of happiness. Gao Liang embraced Chen Yuting's embroidered waist, tenderly cherishing her. Suddenly, a breeze Moreover, it was extremely gloomy, with a strong sense of foreboding—there was a palpable sense of pressure. High-light burst out the window, soared into the air on his sword, and as he rose, observed the dark, heavy clouds pressing down ever lower. He immediately drew out the Sword of Heaven and shouted toward the dark clouds, "Come on! Come out! Which monster is causing this disturbance!" Unexpectedly, the clouds proved cunning—upon seeing High-light arrive, they retreated. A long stretch of dark clouds surged in from another direction, entering Room 1018 of Mengzhu Grand Hotel, and with a piercing cry, one of the clouds swept away Chen Yuting. This was only discovered by High-light when he reached Room 1018 and found Chen Yuting missing. Good heavens! A monster had snatched the third lady-in-waiting! No, I must save her! I absolutely must! High-light felt a firm determination—he would find the third lady-in-waiting no matter what. So he followed the dark clouds, chasing them from moon to moon. When they reached the West, the dark cloud had vanished. Where had it gone? To find the answer, highlights must act swiftly. Immediately, he rode on the fiery Qilin, soaring through the clouds toward the Heavenly Palace. In the Palace, the Heavenly Emperor was furious, shouting at a palace maid, "You dare have lost my golden ox in the garden! I demand you retrieve it quickly!" The maid wept, pleading, "Emperor! Please spare my life! That ox was truly magnificent—it escaped while I was distracted, and when I awoke, it was no longer by my side!" "Take her out and execute her!" the Emperor said, finally showing mercy. "Wait!" Highlights stepped in to stop the action. As soon as he appeared, the Emperor's anger faded. Turning to Highlights, he said, "God of Martial Might! Lord of Light! You've come! Excellent!"
