Highlighted loudly asked his close allies beside him. Before his allies could answer, over a hundred men responded in unison: "Boss, we didn't hear you." Nangong Yan was furious—what on earth was Highlight up to? Several reporters had already been driving her crazy, and now he was deliberately making things worse. She repeated her message. But she forgot one fact: her efforts to communicate that she and Highlight had no connection had caused the potential buyers to call one after another, expressing their intention to drop out. Her voice had been strained from explaining all along, and after finally securing agreements with ten major clients, they all suddenly withdrew. Nangong Hai naturally felt most distressed. He quickly tapped Nangong Yan's forehead, saying, "You! You really let me down. All the promising prospects we were about to secure have now vanished—how unwise! Can you really help Dad with something big?" "Dad! I really don't want this to happen!"
Nan Gong Yan was so anxious that she nearly cried, having not slept a single soundful night for the past few days due to the sales plan for Tang Cheng Yipin. "Hurry up! Say it right here in front of everyone!" Nan Gong Hai's eyes shone with determination, because for every property unit sold at this moment, he would secure a million-dollar income. Nan Gong Yan hesitated, unsure of what to say. With the overseas client's game negotiation nearly concluded, she turned to everyone and said, "Thank you to the people of the world for your unwavering support, and thank you to each of you present for your kind attendance. For this Chinese game, we will do our very best to develop the most vibrant and dynamic experience—please stay tuned and keep watching!" Clapping and cheering erupted around her, and Gao Liang shone brilliantly. Then, turning to his team, Gao Liang said, "Team, today's game is over. Let's go!"
With Highlight's departure, the gaming enthusiasts grew even more enthusiastic, murmuring the two English words: "LiXiaolong! MythGames!" As Highlight left, people stepped aside to make room. In contrast, Nan Gong Hai's forehead glistened with large beads of sweat—because the apartment that the sales representative had originally booked had been canceled. Nan Gong Hai never expected Highlight's influence to be so profound. Now, he truly regarded Highlight with new respect. "Highlight, please don't go—we need you at the company! If you're willing, I can offer you a top-tier salary!" Nan Gong Hai understood Highlight's commercial value. Yet Highlight, no longer enthusiastic about money, seemed indifferent—his wealth was so abundant it felt overwhelming, and he had so many beautiful women in his life. Were there truly no truly beautiful women? Highlight felt a subtle pang of longing, silently calling out, "Dai Mengna—where are you? You are the only woman in my life."
How is Meiji doing? She's my little wife! Is she doing well at Stanford University in California? If given the chance, Lao Zi would go to the U.S. again to see the most important people in his life. Just as he was thinking this, he heard Nan Gong Yan calling out behind him in a clear, sweet voice: "Gao Liang, don't go! Help me, okay?" She looked at Gao Liang with eyes as clear and transparent as a lake. At that moment, Gao Liang had grown cold and distant—his heart was solely occupied by two women: Dai Mengna and Meiji. After all, the happy days they spent in the U.S. would never fade. Meanwhile, reporters were heavily covering the latest gossip about Nan Gong Yan and Gao Liang, painting their once-faint relationship as deeply passionate. They even claimed that Nan Gong Yan was Gao Liang's secret lover. Nan Gong Yan gritted her teeth, watching her brother, Nan Gong Hai, crying out to Tang Cheng Yipin model: "It's over! It's completely over!"
"Nan Gong Yan performed an action that left everyone astonished. This woman was no ordinary one—she either didn't act at all, or if she did, she acted decisively and resolutely, even surpassing ordinary expectations."
"High-light, you want to leave? Never! Everyone knows our relationship. Do you expect to walk away without responsibility? Hmph! Forget it!" Nan Gong Yan stepped forward, blocking the exit.
Lin Guojun and Wang Zhiqiang halted their efforts under High-Light's silent gaze. They too felt that this was likely the boss's woman, and with such a beautiful one sharing the boss's life, they could surely enjoy the view for themselves—what a pleasure! They just didn't know which of the lady's titles she held.
"Miss Nan Gong, I'm rather busy today and simply don't have the time to chat with you!" High-Light had no intention of wasting words.
At this moment, all he could think about were the games and the two beautiful women from before.
To his surprise, he had actually declined the offer that had been made—so unexpected! Could it be that she wasn't beautiful enough?
Doesn't have a single bit of charm? The more so, the bolder South Gong Yan became. She grabbed Gao Liang's wrist firmly and made a cozy gesture, announcing to everyone present, "I won't deny the rumors you've all been spreading—I'm Gao Liang's girlfriend, and Gao Liang is my boyfriend!" At that very moment, reporters from the global television news were live-broadcasting from the scene, and within a moment, people all over the world learned about the relationship between South Gong Yan and Gao Liang. "Uh! Don't be so self-centered—you're not exactly a supermodel, and I've never really felt anything for you..." Gao Liang said with a teasing smile, which once again sparked a flame of passion in South Gong Yan. "Ah!" Before Gao Liang could finish speaking, he felt a sharp pain in his arm—South Gong Yan had bit him hard right there in front of everyone. "I didn't expect you to have such a move!" Gao Liang exclaimed, surprised. South Gong Yan watched as Gao Liang clutched his arm, then gave a little sniff. "I'm going to make sure you remember me!"
"This vivid scene was being live-broadcast on global television news channels. A reporter approached and said, 'Ladies and gentlemen, everyone has just seen it! Miss Nangong is now the closest loved one of Gao Liang—she's been loved, kissed, wounded, and has found happiness...' Nangong Hai, no doubt a business expert, stood behind his daughter and Gao Liang, holding a large sign, and said, 'Just now, Miss Nangong said, "I want you to remember me." Have any of you thought about remembering the Tangcheng Yipin villa in the coastal city of Tangcheng, China!' 'Wow! Tangcheng Yipin!' The audience around the world reacted with excitement. 'Exactly! Tangcheng Yipin was a key setting in my game, "Mythical Games." When you watched me play, you must have gained some familiarity with this villa. Miss Nangong has already explained it so thoroughly. I don't need to add much more. If you enjoy 'Mythical Games,' you absolutely must support Tangcheng Yipin!"
The compelling words carried tremendous appeal. Immediately, the large clients who had previously canceled their orders suddenly resumed their subscriptions. Highlight said with effortless grace, "Online signing! With my signature!" Before he finished speaking, a clear voice interjected, "And also my signature!" "Wow! Both handsome men and beautiful women signing! Absolutely worth it! Absolutely worth it!" The game enthusiasts were thrilled. A significant portion of Highlight's fans were company presidents or chairmen, so as soon as Highlight made a suggestion, they followed suit. In the United States, he had already gained widespread recognition, and he had sparked a global gaming wave. Nangong Hai, looking at all the houses that had sold out so swiftly, was delighted and warmly held Highlight's hand, saying, "Highlight, you're truly amazing—having created an incredible housing-selling phenomenon with *The Mythic Game*. I simply don't know how to thank you enough!"
"Highlight hadn't replied when Nan Gong Yan already looked at him with admiration. In this beautiful manager's eyes, few people could be truly praised by her father—only Highlight stood out. Indeed, Highlight was the most outstanding man she had ever met. Nan Gong Yan felt it was no longer appropriate to remain reserved. Such a remarkable man—if she didn't seize the moment, she would regret it for life. So, blushing deeply, she gathered her courage and took Highlight's arm, saying, 'You're absolutely amazing! Your game, "Mythical Game," is truly wonderful! You must teach me!'
'Uh! Don't be so clingy! I've already said you're not a super-beautiful woman, and I really—' Before he could finish, Highlight cried out in pain—his left ear had been pulled so hard by Nan Gong Yan. Nan Gong Yan smiled playfully, giggling, 'Highlight, you're a fool, a real pig-head! How dare you say I'm not beautiful? Well, then!'
You're completely out of your depth—then I'll show you what I'm made of!
