"What the hell?"
Peng Xue always liked to play jokes on people, and Yue Xinyi, who had been sitting at the same table with her for a long time, was no longer surprised:
"Although Mei Fang is a dog, he wouldn't do such a thing, especially in front of so many people."
"You don't believe me? Just wait and see. I'm telling you, he will give me last year's hard work fee later..."
Yue Xinyi raised her eyebrows slightly: "Aren't you talking about the sponsorship fee for learning bass?"
Peng Xue showed a somewhat surprised expression, "I kept it to myself for so long and didn't tell you, just to scare you today, how did you know?"
"Now you rarely go out to play with others after class, and you're always reading bass-related textbooks. Plus, you've always said you wanted to learn bass but your family doesn't allow it. With Mei Gou's personality, if you just mentioned it to him, how could he not support you for Yuanyuan's sake?"
Yue Xinyi's work as an operations officer at Station C has greatly honed her interpersonal skills. From being proactive and friendly in the beginning to being fair and neutral later, Yue Xinyi's temperament has been honed and the impression she leaves on people has become much more stable.
After hearing this, Peng Xue held Yue Xinyi's arm, her eyes full of gratitude, "I didn't expect... I didn't expect you to care about me so much... I used to think of you as an insignificant opponent, but I didn't expect you to love me so much! Woohoo... Come and stick with me, Xiao Yizi..."
Yue Xinyi looked away with disdain as Peng Xue came close to her, while Liu Xiaoyu smiled and said, "Are you two childhood sweethearts too? You have a really good relationship."
Yue Xinyi pushed away Peng Xue who wanted to get close to her, "What childhood sweethearts? It's just the bad fate of the Yuan Party and the Xi Party!"
"The word 'bad fate' also seems to have a lot of CP feeling, hahaha!"
Everyone was watching the commotion happily. Xia Yuan and Lin Youxi were holding up the microphone and singing. The first song they sang today was "Don't Want to Grow Up" by SHE.
Because Liu Xiaoyu was the only one in today's party who was not a junior high school classmate, Mei Fang was worried at first that she would feel a little lost in the group. Fortunately, Guo Yun, who had a good personality, noticed her embarrassment and would talk to her while eating and singing K.
The two of them had met in Jiangcheng before, so they felt more familiar with each other. They talked and laughed, and got along very well.
After seeing this scene, Mei Fang felt relieved and played with Zhang Ming's hair.
"How long have you not played games?"
“I haven’t played since high school… It’s too difficult.”
"No one wants to play Dota with you?"
"I've seen people play that game before, it's called a MOBA, I think, and it looks quite interesting..."
"Then let's have some fun. Even if we have to compete in study, it doesn't matter that much time. Do you have time during the winter vacation to go play together?"
"Well... it depends."
"Be happy in the science experimental class. It's not just about grades, but also about mentality. But if you feel like you can't keep up or the pressure is too great, don't force yourself..."
While enjoying the singing of Yuanyuan and Youxi, Mei Fang chatted with Zhang Ming and helped her friend Zhang Ming analyze the pros and cons of staying in the science experimental class.
"You can transfer to the science experimental class at the beginning of each semester. If you find it difficult, don't force yourself to stay there. After all, the purpose is to get a higher score in the college entrance examination. It's not something to be ashamed of."
"That's true... By the way, you seem to be very rich recently. Are our gaming achievements good?"
"I'll tell you about this later."
Xia Yuan and Peng Xue were the main microphone masters in the box. Lin Youxi and Liu Xiaoyu would occasionally come in to sing a few songs. This was the first time Liu Xiaoyu sang in front of people other than Mei Fang (in her previous life). Her singing voice was very sweet and moving, and Xia Yuan really enjoyed listening to it.
However, Yue Xinyi, Guo Yun and Zhang Ming were the ones who could not be invited to sing, but no one forced them, after all, some people just liked to act as the atmosphere group.
After all the songs in the KTV were played, Peng Xueliang took out her bass and Xia Yuan took out her guitar. The two of them had agreed beforehand that they wanted to perform together in front of everyone.
"Today I am going to sing Yuanyuan's new song 'Skinny Face' with her. I hope Boss Mei doesn't mind!"
"I don't mind, just don't make it too bad for our relationship."
"Don't underestimate me like that, hahaha!"
Xia Yuan had informed Mei Fang about this matter in advance, and Mei Fang also knew that Peng Xue wanted to show him the results of her hard work so that he would know that his investment was not in vain.
The two of them, one holding a guitar and the other holding a bass, played the previous short melody together. Peng Xue shook her head, closed her eyes and smiled slightly, obviously immersed in her own musical world.
[Another quiet night]
The main melody of the whole song is of course still centered around Xia Yuan's guitar melody. For Mei Fang and Liu Xiaoyu, who are well versed in music theory, the bass part played by Peng Xue is equally impressive.
After the song was finished, everyone applauded together under the leadership of Mei Fang.
"How long have you been practicing... You seem to be in perfect harmony, and you can follow the melody perfectly."
"Hehe..."
Xia Yuan happily hugged Peng Xue and clung to her, "Ah Fang, you don't know! Before we practiced the ensemble, my Xiaoxue watched my videos countless times in private... She is really hardworking, and we will definitely be able to form a band by then!"
"Hey hey hey..."
Peng Xue, who has always been carefree and has no sense of distance, was actually a little embarrassed when Xia Yuan praised her in person this time.
After the performance ended, Mei Fang nodded to Lin Youxi. After receiving the message, the latter turned off the music in the box and turned on the lights. Xia Yuan walked to the front of the stage holding Mei Fang's schoolbag.
"Everyone, please stop for a moment. Ah Fang has something to say to everyone. Ah Fang, come over here..."
Xia Yuan called Mei Fang to the front of the stage.
"Although there is no need to be so formal... But in order to arrange the subsequent work and move forward, I will explain it for the time being. Today is not only a gathering of friends, but also a small annual meeting of our Ximilu Studio. After all, everyone present is the founding member of Ximilu Studio.
"In the past year, we have planned a total of three works, two of which have been launched, namely "Reign" and "Life Restart Simulator."
Mei Fang spoke in a very serious manner. Even the naughty Peng Xue, who liked to joke, sat there and listened to him respectfully.
"The information I can share with you is that the sales of these two games exceeded 30,000 and 50,000 respectively at the end of the year. This concept may not be easy for you to understand, but it means that these two projects have made a total of more than 200,000 yuan so far. I want to share this with you this time."
"More than two hundred thousand?!"
Yue Xinyi asked, "These are just the gross profits, right? How much money do you plan to give us?"
"After deducting some operating expenses, there is about 80,000 yuan left."
Mei Fang said to everyone present, "I plan to use all this money as year-end bonuses and distribute it to everyone present according to their contributions to the project."
"Eighty, eighty thousand... full marks?"
Except for Xia Yuan and Lin Youxi, everyone present felt incredible.
"Is it the Celestial Empire's currency? Don't fool us."
"Why should I fool you..."
As Mei Fang spoke, he and Xia Yuanlin Youxi took out stacks of banknotes from their schoolbags.
"By the way, just the few of you can take this money. Youxi and I will not participate in the dividend distribution."
Xia Yuan sometimes spoke like a lady, which excited Peng Xue who was standing beside her.
I was busy playing around today and didn't have time to write... I can only add one chapter today, I will try harder tomorrow. Sorry everyone...
