Therefore, on the second day, when An Ruyou was resting at noon, she drove all the way from Andersen Group to Ho Group in order to deliver this extremely good news to Zhang Minzhi and Kong Xiaomi personally. It was also to bid them farewell and tell them that their studio was going to be disbanded soon.
In the vicinity of Ho Group, there were many high-grade restaurants such as western restaurants and daily necessities. But An Ruyou and Kong Xiaomi had a lively lunch together today, so they specifically booked a private room on the seabed a bit further away. According to what An Ruyou knew, Kong Xiaomi and Zhang Minzhi seemed to like eating hotpot very much, and it had been a long time since An Ruyou had eaten hotpot herself.
He Chengyu also knew that An Ruyou would be inviting Zhang Minzhi and Kong Xiaomi for lunch this afternoon, and He Chengyu also wanted to have lunch with him until the end, so he humbly suggested to An Ruyou that if he could have lunch with them, he should treat himself.
But He Chengyu was rejected mercilessly by An Ruyou, the reason was sufficient: "This is the last meal of the few of us celebrating the success of the project, you are a dignified CEO of the Ho Group, if you were to eat this meal with us, I feel that it would be fine, it doesn't matter, but I'm afraid that Kong Xiaomi and Zhang Minzhi will not let it go, is that not going to be interesting?"
No matter what He Chengyu said, An Ruyou just did not agree, "My CEO He, you should just properly eat at the company. We don't need to eat lunch together, do we?" Seeing that there was no way to persuade her, He Chengyu had no choice but to compromise.
After arriving at the Ho Group, An Ruyou did not go upstairs. She was afraid that once she talked with He Chengyu, there might be no end, so she made an appointment with Kong Xiaomi and Zhang Minzhi to wait for the two of them downstairs. Then, she would drive the car to take them out for dinner.
Zhang Minzhi and Kong Xiaomi were not late. When it was time for lunch break, the two of them hurried to the agreed place with An Ruyou. In fact, the two of them had already guessed what was going to happen next.
"Ru You!" The moment Kong Xiaomi walked out of the revolving door on the first floor, she saw An Ruyou's car parked in front of the side door.
An Ruyou intentionally stood outside the carriage door, waiting for Zhang Minzhi and Kong Xiaomi. Although it was already late autumn, the weather was good today.
Kong Xiaomi was in a rush, adding on to the fact that she was wearing too much, the inertia was too big, so she did not stop the car, and rushed into An Ruyou's embrace.
Fortunately, An Ruyou had long understood Kong Xiaomi's reckless personality. Although there were many swaps in the places where Kong Xiaomi was present, there were also times where accidents would occur. Because An Ruyou was already prepared for Kong Xiaomi to rush over, he was not too shocked.
Upon seeing Kong Xiaomi, An Ruyou laughed, "Xiao Mi, why are you still so cute? Not even looking at the road? What would you do if you were to fall into someone else's arms? " An Ruyou said to Kong Xiaomi with a smile.
"It can't be anyone else's. I just saw it right, it's you, Elder Sister Ru Lu, I just came running over here because I want to see you. It's been a long time since we last met, hahaha …" The moment Kong Xiaomi saw An Ruyou, he could not stop talking, especially after not seeing An Ruyou for such a long time, she became even more serious.
After Kong Xiaomi finished speaking, coincidentally, Zhang Minzhi also leisurely walked over. She and An Ruyou both simply nodded his head in greeting.
"Alright, everyone's here. Let's go eat hotpot!"
After arriving at the hotpot restaurant, the steaming hot atmosphere in the restaurant was immediately banished. The desolate and cold feeling brought about by the late autumn was replaced with a fiery and excited feeling. An Ruyou had booked a private room in advance. It could be considered quiet in the middle of the night, as she could feel the lively atmosphere in the restaurant, and the fact that she could not be disturbed by others, she had her own space.
An Ruyou gave all the rights to ordering dishes to both Kong Xiaomi and Zhang Minzhi. Zhang Minzhi was not very interested in all of this, nor was he as knowledgeable as Kong Xiaomi, so in the end, it was Kong Xiaomi who was responsible for ordering dishes. However, Kong Xiaomi really liked ordering dishes and seemed to be very knowledgeable about it, it was a combination of meat and vegetables, and it was enough for three people to eat, so it wasn't too wasteful.
While waiting for the dishes to be served, An Ruyou officially informed Zhang Minzhi and Kong Xiaomi: "Mu Zhi, Xiao Mi, inviting the two of you out for dinner today is actually a very important matter, moreover, it should be considered a great matter. I have to tell you two, that's why I chose this place on purpose, because I don't want to say it in the heavy atmosphere of the office …"
Looking at the expressions in Kong Xiaomi's and her eyes, An Ruyou still said the following words: "Moreover, this is our farewell meal. Because, our studio, from today onwards, can be considered to have officially disbanded."
After he finished speaking, the room went silent for a few seconds. An Ruyou was waiting for Zhang Minzhi and Kong Xiaomi's reactions, but both Kong Xiaomi and Zhang Minzhi didn't know how to react.
Originally, the two of them thought that maybe An Ruyou had told them that the company had not received any new projects or quests and continued to follow up on the game. However, she actually told them so suddenly that the studio was dissolved, and didn't even have the chance to refute him.
Kong Xiaomi's eyes immediately turned red, the happy and excited look on her face disappeared without a trace. The first thought in Kong Xiaomi's mind was not about the future livelihood or anything similar. She was thinking that she really liked her current job, if this workshop was dissolved just like that, then she might not be able to see An Ruyou again in the future. She might not be able to work in a big business like Ho Group.
This time, Zhang Minzhi was not indifferent either. He still maintained his inherent silence, but this was the first time An Ruyou had ever seen Zhang Minzhi take out a pack of cigarettes and a lighter from her pockets. In the past, for the sake of developing a game, no matter how much harder he had to endure during the night, An Ruyou had never seen Zhang Minzhi smoking before, nor did she see any cigarette butts in the trash can.
However, when Zhang Minzhi thought about how he was in a public place, he put away his lighter, but did not light up his cigarette in the end.
As a middle-aged man who was close to thirty years old, the problems that Zhang Minzhi could think of were actually a lot more realistic than the naive and romantic little girls of Kong Xiaomi's age. Amongst all the work that Zhang Minzhi had done, the game development project that he had been working with the Ho Group on had the best treatment for him.
Zhang Minzhi now had a wife and children, so he still valued the salary of a job. A few days ago, when he had successfully logged on to the game and received a large amount of bonuses, Zhang Minzhi had even gone home to tell his wife that he wouldn't have to worry about him anymore. He already had the power and the opportunity to let her and his child live a better life, but it had only been a few days, and in the blink of an eye, he was about to lose his job again.
However, Zhang Minzhi and Kong Xiaomi's series of thoughts were only for a few seconds. Because he just happened to get in time with the waiter last time, An Ruyou's words were cut off.
After the waiter left, An Ruyou realized that something was wrong with the expressions of Kong Xiaomi and the others. An Ruyou slightly reacted, recalling that what she had just said was suddenly interrupted by the dishes being served. It was very likely that Kong Xiaomi and Zhang Minzhi had misunderstood her meaning, and had caused a huge ruckus.
Sure enough, just as the waiter left the private room, Kong Xiaomi said with a sobbing tone of voice, as if she was wronged, "Sister Ru You, why did you dissolve our studio? Was it something we did that dissatisfied you? "You can even bring it up, we're willing to correct it. It's so sudden to have so many of you …"
Even though Zhang Minzhi didn't say anything, his eyes looked at An Ruyou with a heavy gaze, as if he was responding to Kong Xiaomi's words.
At this moment, An Ruyou felt a huge pressure on him. How did a normal thing turn into this? An Ruyou quickly took a few tissue and handed it over to Kong Xiaomi, allowing him to wipe her own tears.
Then, he casually took the case that Zhang Minzhi had placed in front of him, and said: "I should say that the two of you want to order something, right? "Seriously, can you listen to what I have to say? I still have some good news to tell you two. Hurry up and smile for me. Otherwise, I won't tell you anymore!"
"Huh?" Only then did Kong Xiaomi and Zhang Minzhi realize that they were indeed a little emotional. After tidying up their emotions, they continued to listen to An Ruyou.
"The game project that we developed together before has already achieved its initial success and is now operational. There shouldn't be too much problems following that, after all, it is what we watch form day and night." Kong Xiaomi and Zhang Minzhi both nodded silently.
"I have also considered many things, but our little studio is still too small, and won't be able to create a climate, so I have discussed it with He Chengyu. The Ho Group will officially purchase it, and we can continue with the game project."
"You two, hey, what were you two so blindly worried about just now? Although our studio has been dissolved, do you think I will ignore the two of you? Am I not good enough for the two of you? What are you thinking of me? " An Ruyou said jokingly, but it made both Kong Xiaomi and Zhang Minzhi's faces turn hot, and they didn't know what to say.
Alright, I'm not going to beat around the bush with you two. I've already asked your questions for you guys regarding your next step of work. Of course, the final choice is still up to you. After that, An Ruyou told the two of them about what she had discussed with He Chengyu the night before.
After Zhang Minzhi finished listening, gratitude filled his words. He was not good with words, so he did not say anything, just picked up the beer on the table and poured himself a full cup, "Thank you, Anzhong! I don't know how to say anything, this toast is to you! "Thank you!" After he finished speaking, he finished the wine in his cup in one gulp.
Kong Xiaomi was not willing to fall behind, so she poured a cup of wine and took a big gulp, and was stopped.
