Pursuing Her Best Friend after Confession Failed-Chapter 239 - 128: Selling Game Rights, Negotiating with Little Moon (Two-in-One, Subscription Request)_5
Zhong Tingyue retorted, "And what if I guess wrong?"
Li Yuan responded as if it were a given, "If you guess wrong, of course there’s a punishment."
Zhong Tingyue blinked. "What kind of punishment?"
Li Yuan cleared his throat, a playful smile on his face as his eyes roamed over Zhong Tingyue’s stunning figure. "Ahem. For example, the punishment from that night was very nice."
Zhong Tingyue’s face instantly turned bright red. She raised a delicate fist and playfully thumped him.
"You’re so naughty, Senior! You’re always taking advantage of me."
Feeling wronged, Li Yuan held up his hands in protest. "Little Moon, it’s just a guessing game! If you win, you can make demands of me, too."
Zhong Tingyue glared at him and huffed, "This is hardly the same level of difficulty."
Li Yuan thought about it and conceded with a chuckle, "Heh, you’re right. I can give you a hint and a few more chances."
Zhong Tingyue smiled. "That’s more like it. Let’s give it a try. Give me a hint first."
Li Yuan thought for a moment and said with a smile, "It’s related to the book I wrote."
Hearing this, Zhong Tingyue’s gaze shifted, and she seemed to be pondering matters related to his book.
"Senior, is it about the work’s copyright?" 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢
Li Yuan was startled. She guessed it just like that? That can’t be right. How would a girl who just started college know about this? Even if she’s a top student from a prestigious university, she should have guessed wrong a few times first.
Seeing Li Yuan’s surprised expression, Zhong Tingyue bit her red lip, her smile brightening. "Senior, looks like I guessed right? So, it’s about selling the copyright for ’Battle Starry Sky’?"
Li Yuan asked curiously, "How did you guess?"
Zhong Tingyue smiled sweetly and hummed softly. "Senior, what’s so hard to guess about that? Isn’t copyright the most important thing for a literary work?"
"I almost forgot to tell you," she added with a little giggle. "In my sophomore year of high school, I wrote some modern poetry and submitted it to ’Youth Digest.’ They had information about copyright sales."
Li Yuan finally understood, and he shook his head with a wry smile. For a talented girl like Zhong Tingyue, this really wasn’t that hard to guess. The women around me aren’t just top students from prestigious universities; they’re also incredibly intelligent. Thinking about it, my days ahead won’t be easy. Wanting to be a deeply affectionate playboy like those who came before me seems exceptionally difficult. That’s because these women pursue much more than just money. With their looks and intellect, there will be no shortage of wealthy heirs chasing them. If the standards for education, height, and looks were lowered, potential suitors would be a dime a dozen. Modu has plenty of rich people, but highly-educated, highly-intelligent, top-tier beauties are a truly scarce resource.
"Well, Little Moon, congratulations. You were right," Li Yuan admitted generously. "A gaming company wants to buy the game rights for ’Battle Starry Sky’ and has scheduled a meeting for this afternoon."
"Come with me later," he added with a chuckle. "You can give me some moral support."
Zhong Tingyue grinned at Li Yuan, her eyes curving into happy crescents. "Of course! I’d love nothing more. I’m studying business administration, so getting a chance to experience some ’business warfare’ firsthand is a rare opportunity."
Li Yuan gave a self-deprecating laugh. "Little Moon, stop teasing me. It’s just a minor copyright negotiation."
"Speaking of which, since you’re studying business administration, you’ll be able to manage a company right after you graduate."
Zhong Tingyue shook her head, explaining with a smile, "Big Writer Li, this isn’t as simple as a minor copyright transaction. I’ve been looking into copyright deals recently. For something like the game adaptation rights to ’Battle Starry Sky,’ the deal would be in the millions, or even tens of millions."
"Besides, with a business administration major... well, unless you have a family business, it’s impossible to manage a company right after graduation. You have to familiarize yourself with the company’s operations and procedures first. Only after continuously gaining experience is it possible to shoulder the responsibility of managing a company alone."
Li Yuan looked at Zhong Tingyue, astonished. My perception of her has deepened yet again. She’s only just started college, and she already knows so much about this...
"Little Moon, I’m a complete business Bai. I’ll be counting on you during the negotiations."
Zhong Tingyue rolled her eyes at Li Yuan and huffed. "Senior, you still owe me a reward. Don’t you forget it."
Li Yuan suddenly leaned close to Zhong Tingyue, inhaling her enchanting scent, a small smile playing on his lips.
"So, Little Moon, what kind of reward do you want?"
