"President Gu?" Lin Rusong was stunned when he heard this, and then said, "He and the art team are in meeting room [-], and they seem to be confirming the character image of the NPC."

Si Chen said in a deep voice, "What about his friends?"

Even the word "friend" is emphasized.

Lin Rusong saw his boss's stern face, and finally realized: "Oh, I asked Mr. Cao to go to the rest room next door."

——I feel like President Si is jealous?

Although Mr. Gu, a friend, may participate in the work of the art team, but before the contract is signed, he must not allow people to join the discussion, otherwise there is a risk of leaking secrets.

As soon as Lin Rusong finished speaking, President Si asked him, "Are there any other documents?"

"Gone."

"Then you hand over the things to the finance department." After Si Chen finished speaking, he got up and called Pine, put him on a leash, and walked towards the rest room next door, one person and one dog.

Lin Rusong felt that Si Chen's aura had changed, and he was even more intimidating than when he was talking about proposals in the conference room.

He shook his head and tidied up the documents: "Let's work hard, Xiaolin!"

……

Cao Ze was flipping through the project proposal in his hand. He had just finished reading the overview of the entire worldview, and he was a little puzzled when he heard someone push the door open.

"Little Gu, you're here..." He turned his head and found that the person who came in was not Gu Xinghuai, so he stopped talking, "Are you?"

Si Chen asked Paine to take him to Cao Ze's seat, and the man was opposite him. The man introduced himself, "I am the current person in charge of Xinghai Studio, and also Gu Xinghuai's old company."

"Oh!" Cao Ze also stood up, and stretched out his hand to him, "I have known you for a long time, I am Cao Ze, a friend of Xiao Gu, and I am a classmate of the exchange course with him now."

The man didn't shake it back, he just touched the chair and sat down.

Cao Ze didn't think too much about it. He is blind after all, so it's normal not to notice it.

"How did Mr. Cao know about our project?" Si Chen asked first.

Cao Ze replied: "Just after class this week, Xiao Gu told me that he wanted to invite me to a project. I heard him talk about the type of games. It's a field I haven't touched before, and the salary is good, and the construction period is short. Hurry up, I just thought I could come and find out.”

Si Chen has heard of Cao Ze, an artist who used to draw original paintings for combat-type mobile games and online games. He was selected into the list because he has a certain ability to "bring goods" and solid basic skills, but other than that Besides, the other painters are not bad either.

But Gu Xinghuai chose to contact Cao Ze, as if he had already decided to let this person participate in his project.

Si Chen felt a little upset, his project was not to pave the way for anyone.

Si Chen turned the leash in his hand and continued: "Then Mr. Cao and Xing Huai have known each other for a long time? I've heard that Mr. Cao is picky. I'm afraid our project alone won't impress you?"

"No, your project is very good." Cao Ze waved his hand, and then said, "I met Xiao Gu when I was studying here in college. It's been two or three years or three or four years. I can't remember."

Hearing this, Si Chen slightly lowered his eyelids.

——Did you really meet him before?

"Then why haven't I heard Xing Huai mention you before?"

"Because..." Cao Ze hesitated before continuing, "Something happened, and we didn't get in touch with each other later. We met again after going to Linchuan Academy of Fine Arts."

Although Cao Ze didn't say it, Si Chen still heard the hidden content from his heart.

——Gu Xinghuai flirted in a bar to no avail, and then tried to drug him?

well.

This is like the Gu Xinghuai he knew. That person secretly drugged him when he came home drunk one night when he was just blind. robbery.

When both of them were lost in thought, Gu Xinghuai took a break, and he planned to come over to see how Cao Ze was thinking.

As soon as he entered the door, he also saw the back of his head, and Pine was sitting by his feet: "Hey, Si Chen, are you there?"

"Well, let me see how your friend is getting to know you." Si Chen said and got up, "Since you're here, let me introduce you. After all, you have been friends for so many years, so I won't bother you."

Gu Xinghuai nodded: "Okay, then go get busy."

As Gu Xinghuai said, how did Xindao Sichen know that he and Cao Ze had known each other for many years?

The young man was puzzled, unaware that the pressure of President Si passing by him had become even lower.

Si Chen let Pine take him back to the office, usually when Pine returned to the office, he would untie the dog hook.

Anyway, no one would enter his office except Lin Rusong, Xiao Lin was not afraid of dogs, and Pine would not jump at people or sneak out, and he didn't have to be working all the time.

But this time, after Pine came back, he didn't wait for Lai Sichen to help him take off the rope. Gougou watched his master leaning on the chair and meditating without disturbing him, adjusted his posture and lay down on the ground.

Gu Xinghuai's sentence [How did he know that Cao Ze and I have known each other for many years? ], let Si Chen affirm one thing, Gu Xinghuai is still the same person, otherwise, even if he admits it verbally, he would not think so in his heart.

Gu Xinghuai said before that the system would require him to complete the task, since there must be a reward for the task, then his talent for painting may be the benefit of the so-called system.

Lin Rusong said that Cao Ze looked like him, and the first thing he heard about the marriage from the Si family was that Gu Xinghuai took the initiative because he took a fancy to his skin.

In other words, this person could not be loved, and after losing contact with Cao Ze, he saw that he was very similar to Cao Ze, so he moved his mind.

Was he taken as Cao Ze's stand-in?

That's why Gu Xinghuai said in the car that the two of them had no feelings for each other. The reason for the free world outside was actually because he met Cao Ze again and wanted to get rid of it. As for wanting to be friends with him, it was just to have a spare tire.

Si Chen thought, why didn't he think this person was so good at acting before?

Now Gu Xinghuai is still grandiosely bringing his sweetheart to him, using his hard work to provide Cao Ze with resources?

Si Chen let out a low laugh from his chest.

It's ridiculous that he would still make excuses for Gu Xinghuai.

……

In the room on the other side, after the man with a strong sense of oppression was gone, Cao Ze's flipping movements also became faster.

After reading the background introduction, only the introduction of the main NPCs and protagonists is left, because the character image has not been confirmed yet, and the pictures put up are only the pictures of the characters that still need to be discussed.

After Cao Ze spent 5 minutes reading it, he closed the proposal with a serious face.

After seeing his reaction, Gu Xinghuai was a little confused about Cao Ze's meaning: "What? Not satisfied?"

"No, I'm just curious, is this proposal really made by you?"

"Of course, Si Chen and his colleagues in the studio have been busy for half a month."

Cao Ze's face turned cold: "If I said that before this, I saw a plan that was almost exactly the same, how would you explain it?"

"Exactly the same?" Gu Xinghuai asked puzzled.

"Originally, I was a little confused after looking at the background settings, but the purpose settings of Otome Love Games are mostly the same, so I didn't think much about it. I didn't expect that you would even copy the NPC settings, character designs and even famous lines?"

"Wait, let me smooth it out." Gu Xinghuai frowned and said, "Maybe I can ask you when you received another proposal? Who is it?"

"I don't remember the exact time, but it should have been at the beginning of the exchange course. That person belonged to the Si family..." Cao Ze gasped suddenly as he spoke, "Could it be your old company? took his brother's things?"

"No." Gu Xinghuai said firmly.

He knew very well that Si Chen was not such a person, and if he wanted to talk about copying, it should be something that Si Chengjin could do.

Gu Xinghuai had a guess in his mind, maybe it was because of Si Chengjin's abnormal point?

If it wasn't exactly the same, Gu Xinghuai could still think that it was just a collision of ideas, but after Cao Ze had read the documents of both parties, he could come to the conclusion that it could only be that Si Chen's project was plagiarized.

Si Chen has not been in contact with Si Chengjin recently, and it is impossible for the studio to leak his project. The only possibility is that Si Chengjin knew about Si Chen's project before then.

And last time at the auction, Si Chengjin actually chose to help Bai Zian enter the venue, as if he had the ability to predict the future like him?

Gu Xinghuai calmed down, he asked Lin Rusong to call a meeting, and at the same time tapped the system in his head: "System, do you think it is possible that Si Chengjin is also a book runner, or also has a system."

The system quickly overturned this conclusion: "That's not true. If you think that one book-traveling soul like you is likely to be noticed by the world consciousness, if there are a few more, it will definitely kill the master brain. As for the system, there should be no , unless that person's system is more advanced than mine, I might not be able to detect it."

Gu Xinghuai pursed his lips: "Could it be that he snooped on the plot...or maybe it's because he just relived it!"

So he only targeted Si Chen and nothing else.

For some reason, the system suddenly stopped echoing. After a while, it raised the volume a bit: "Host! You guessed it right! The mastermind wrote back to me. Si Chengjin's soul energy has increased sharply compared to before. There should be some Excessive past life memories!"

Gu Xinghuai did not expect that he just wanted to "redeem", but unexpectedly discovered such a big secret, Si Chengjin was reborn, and his mission was changed because of this.

The system said viciously: "It's because he caused me to be censored, host, you must work hard to bring the plot back on track, and don't let him spoil the hero's awakening."

Gu Xinghuai nodded, first of all he had to inform Si Chen that his idea had been plagiarized.

·

The planning case caused everyone in the company to be overwhelmed. Not only did they have to find a way to prove their innocence, but they also had to get Si to stop their project. What's more, everyone's hard work these days was equivalent to zero.

Cao Ze temporarily suspended his cooperation with the Si family, but he didn't say much, he just waited for the truth to come out, otherwise he didn't want to get involved in this turmoil.

While Gu Xinghuai was thinking of ways to help the studio tide over the difficulties, he also noticed that Si Chen's attitude towards him had become very strange, as if the boundary between the two had been invisibly added back by Si Chen, and it was still reinforced. Version.

In the studio, except for the necessary reply, Si Chen would not say a word.

When he was in the villa, Si Chen also left early and returned late, as if there was a jet lag with him, and basically they couldn't see each other.

Si Chen sometimes said more, "Don't you have anyone else to chat with?" This made Gu Xinghuai even more confused.

But Gu Xinghuai is not someone who will be run away by the big refrigerator, not to mention that he still has his own plan in mind, discussing cooperation with Si Chen and telling him that Si Chengjin is likely to be reborn.

Gu Xinghuai thought that Si Chen's attitude towards him changed after that meeting with Cao Ze. Could it be that the other person Si Chen was talking about was Cao Ze?

With the idea of ​​seeking proof, Gu Xinghuai took Cao Ze to a barbecue restaurant near the studio after class this time.

The two ordered a few glasses of beer and a bunch of skewers. Their good looks attracted the attention of many people in the store.

After the dishes were served, Gu Xinghuai said straight to the point: "Cao Ze, what did Si Chen chat with you in the lounge last time?"

……

Xinghai studio.

Lin Rusong saw that President Si's office was still lit, he stretched, and decided to ask a question before he got off work as usual.

After pushing open the door, he saw Si Chen wearing earphones, listening to something very seriously, Paine patted Si Chen's leg with his paw after seeing Lin Rusong, reminding him that someone had come in.

Si Chen took off the earphones: "What's wrong?"

Lin Rusong asked: "Is the director still going to work overtime today?"

"Well, you get off work."

Since getting Paine, Lin Rusong didn't have to wait to pick up Si Chen to the car sooner or later, and felt a little empty, but since President Si had spoken, he slipped away first.

After Lin Rusong left, Si Chen clicked on Gu Xinghuai's WeChat interface again, and asked the screen reader to read the message again.

Today's Gu Xinghuai hasn't sent any messages to harass him since the afternoon, Si Chen can't tell what's on his mind.

She has clearly decided to stay away from Gu Xinghuai, but she still thinks of him inexplicably.

The more he kept the distance, the more he felt unaccustomed to it, and he could only widen the intersection between the two.

Maybe it's just that Gu Xinghuai, who has put on a good disguise, satisfies the little vacancies in his heart, so even if it's fake, he still feels longing.

Si Chen felt that he was probably a little panicked, afraid that Gu Xinghuai would leave one day and transfer to someone else, such as that Cao Ze.

He could understand that Gu Xinghuai had no feelings for him, and was even afraid that it was because of the Laoshi subsystem and the ending that he was good to him, but he couldn't accept that the starting point of all this was because he was used as a substitute.

Suddenly, the phone on the table rang, and the voice assistant said conscientiously: "The call from the contact Xing Huai in the address book, is it connected?"

Si Chen hesitated, but the annoying bell was still ringing, so he had no choice but to connect, and a voice came from the other side: "Hello? Is it Mr. Si?"

Even though the voice on the other end was noisy and the other party's voice was slightly distorted through the microphone, he still recognized that it was Cao Ze's voice.

Si Chen said in a deep voice: "It's me. What's wrong?"

——Is he calling from Gu Xinghuai's phone to demonstrate?

"Gu Xinghuai is next to me now, it seems a bit uncomfortable, I think it's better to let you know."

So Gu Xinghuai didn't look for him all afternoon, was it because he got bored and went back to Cao Ze?

A sour feeling suddenly appeared in Si Chen's heart, which made him unable to control his emotions: "Mr. Cao has such a good relationship with him, do you need to inform me?"

Cao Ze looked at the flushed young man lying on the table, and hurriedly explained: "No, no, of course I have to inform you, because there is something wrong with Xiao Gu's blushing..."

After listening to Cao Ze's description, Si Chen seemed to know what was wrong with Gu Xinghuai.

"Ask the store to check the monitoring. It is probably drugged." He said in surrender, "Where is the address? I will go there now."
