Chapter 219 : Bei Yaoyue's Shape
Chapter 219 : Bei Yaoyue's Shape
"Are you serious?" Bei Yaoyue's brow couldn't help but slowly furrow. "You want Bai He to be the story writer?"
She had also heard about Bai He writing novels. After all, she and Bai He were classmates in the same class, so she would inevitably hear some rumors.
But what Bei Yaoyue was looking for was a story writer, not a web novel author. Although these two seemed quite similar, the focus and required abilities still had quite a few differences. To use a simple example for comparison, it was probably the difference between voice actors and singers.
An excellent voice actor might not be able to sing well, and an excellent singer might not be able to voice act well, because these two required completely different abilities.
"Haven't you still not found anyone until now?" Xifeng crossed her legs, her bare jade feet swaying back and forth in the air. "I think her yuri novels are quite well written. I just talked to her about it, and she said she could try."
Bei Yaoyue pinched the bridge of her nose: "That Ye Jiancheng from before was one thing—she at least has some work experience and her skills are indeed acceptable. But Bai He... not even talking about her abilities, she's still in high school now. Besides her career, she also has to balance her studies. I don't think she has enough energy to do the story writing job well."
Since Bei Yaoyue herself dealt with work and studies every day, she clearly knew just how difficult and exhausting it was to balance these two aspects of life.
Scratching her cheek, Xifeng also understood that Bei Yaoyue's reasoning was sound. But she had already explained this matter to Bai He, and if she changed her mind and refused now, it would be somewhat difficult to bring up. So she could only try to persist a bit more: "I think, why don't you go look at the novel she wrote before making a decision? Maybe after reading her novel, you'll change your opinion of her."
Before reading it, Xifeng also didn't believe that a girl still in high school could write such excellent work. Some people were indeed born with talent in this area—maybe Bai He was a genius yuri girl?
"Fine." Bei Yaoyue agreed for now. Spending a few hours reading a book wasn't an unacceptable request.
"What's the current situation?"
"I haven't fully figured out the company side yet, and don't have too much energy to manage it, so I've temporarily left everything to Dad to handle. I'll transfer it to myself when there's an opportunity later. Currently we just need to manage a game studio under the company." Bei Yaoyue spun the stylus in her hand, her slender and nimble fingers constantly fluttering, unconsciously drawing Xifeng's gaze.
Bei Yaoyue's fingers were really beautiful.
Xifeng thought this way, then some less harmonious images appeared in her mind. Her cheeks also took on a layer of pink accordingly. She quickly lowered her head, looking at the gaps between the floor tiles, and asked: "Have you thought of a name for the studio?"
"Romantic Moonlit Thoughts Studio." Bei Yaoyue turned her swivel chair around to face her. "If you have other ideas, you can bring them up."
This was an idiom that Bei Yaoyue really liked, so when deciding on the studio's name, she had made this decision almost without much thought. The meaning contained in this idiom was self-evident.
"I think this is quite good." Xifeng nodded. She still remembered that when Bei Yaoyue played FF14 with her before, her character ID was exactly this.
Xifeng still remembered it was a delicious lalafell that could make people drool just from one look, and she had also spent money to buy level boosts for all classes. However, Bei Yaoyue hadn't played for a long time. Her decision to play was probably just a momentary whim, which couldn't help but make Xifeng sigh—rich people really were willful when playing games.
Create character, spend money, quit—all in one smooth motion.
"The office building has already been rented. It's only four kilometers from our home. Once we've recruited everyone, we can pretty much start getting things going."
Xifeng nodded, just feeling somewhat uncomfortable inside. Without realizing it, Bei Yaoyue had already arranged almost everything, and what about her? Besides finding two second-rate or even third-rate people to join the team, she hadn't done anything.
If this was Xifeng duo-queuing with Bei Yaoyue, then she was that bronze noob who got carried all the way to master rank by Bei Yaoyue, who was in the top 500.
It wasn't that Xifeng didn't want to help, but every time she expressed wanting to share Bei Yaoyue's burdens, Bei Yaoyue would smile and tell her, "I'll handle these things, you just need to wait." That tone couldn't be more doting.
Regarding this, Xifeng was completely helpless.

The next morning.
Due to doing too much intense exercise last night, both physically and mentally exhausted, when Xifeng woke up it was already 10 AM. She rubbed her sleepy eyes and sat up, but didn't see Bei Yaoyue's figure as usual.
"Eh? Where is she?" Xifeng muttered in confusion. This was Bei Yaoyue's room—generally speaking, as long as Bei Yaoyue was home, she would definitely be staying in this bedroom.
Thinking that Bei Yaoyue might have gone out, Xifeng felt around the bedside for her phone and dialed Bei Yaoyue's number.
"Hello, Bei Yaoyue."
"Morning."
The voice on the phone was somewhat noisy, mixed with the sound of car horns, making it seem like Bei Yaoyue was currently near a road.
Xifeng sat on the edge of the bed, while recovering her consciousness that was still somewhat hazy from just waking up, she asked: "Where did you go?"
"I have some matters to handle outside. I'll be back by tonight at the latest."
Without Xifeng having to ask, she knew it must be studio-related business. Only this matter could make Bei Yaoyue so concerned that she'd go out alone early in the morning. You had to know that Bei Yaoyue really disliked interacting with people.
"Okay, I understand."
"I read Bai He's book." Bei Yaoyue's voice was silent for a while. "I think what she wrote is indeed quite good. It was quite comfortable to read."
Hearing Bei Yaoyue's words, Xifeng couldn't help but purse her lips. That Nan Qinyue was written based on you, wasn't it? Being able to immerse yourself in that character, of course you'd find it comfortable to read.
"Tell her to contact me when she has time today."
"Okay~"
After hanging up, Xifeng rolled out of bed and walked toward the washroom, splashing cold water on her face before finally becoming a bit more awake.
This was the first time Xifeng had spent time alone at home. Looking at the empty room, she always felt somewhat unaccustomed. At noon, sitting alone at the dining table eating spicy blood curd, she even felt a sense of loneliness.
It was then that Xifeng realized she could no longer leave that person, and had already completely become Bei Yaoyue's shape, inside and out.
Whether it was her body or her heart.
