Chapter 270: Chapter 270: Daily Trivial Matters

Zhou Chuan didn’t say a word about Shen Siyuan not coming to work yesterday, not even a question.

Everyone else acted similarly, after all, when someone was getting ready to resign, nothing they did came as a surprise.

So when Si Yuan came to work, he went straight to the finance department to get a resignation form.

"Resigning? When are you leaving?"

Ding Youguang immediately replied with a message in the "Fishing Man Fishing the World" group, apparently not surprised by his departure.

"If it’s soon, it’ll be this week, or next week if it’s later," Si Yuan said.

As for the one-month handover period, Shen Siyuan didn’t care at all. No one cared about that. As long as the work was handed over, he could leave at any time; it wasn’t an irreplaceable position.

"Alright then, when you have time, let’s get together," said Ding Youguang.

Zhou Zhengdao, who hadn’t spoken until then, finally asked, "What are you planning to do after you resign?"

"Nothing, go home and be a kept man," answered Si Yuan.

Ding Youguang immediately sent an "I’m so clever, I knew it all along" emoji.

"Are you serious? How can you do this? We agreed to do business together, how can you abandon me? Beating my chest and stomping my feet.Jif."

Speaking of which, Zhou Zhengdao was actually the one he had helped pull into this through connections, and now running off himself seemed somewhat dishonorable.

"The fishing game is going online in a couple of days."

Li Qunfang, who had been silent until now, suddenly chimed in.

"Yeah, I wish you all the best. Since I’ve chosen to leave, if the game really makes a profit, I don’t want my share," Si Yuan said directly in the group.

Although he was the planner for this fishing game, he had actually contributed the least effort and had the least impact.

Ding Youguang was in charge of the channels, and frankly speaking, he was the traffic maker. Without him, no matter how good the game was, it wouldn’t generate real money, so his importance was self-evident.

Zhou Zhengdao didn’t even need to be mentioned; he coded the entire game, from the framework to the code, line by line.

And Li Qunfang, as the artist, was an indispensable presence in a game; without her, it would probably only be a text game.

So in conclusion, although Si Yuan was one of the initiators of the project, his role was indeed the smallest.

Neither Zhou Zhengdao nor Li Qunfang spoke up, but Ding Youguang said, "That’s not acceptable. We had an agreement; you won’t miss out on what’s rightfully yours."

He said it magnanimously, but who knew if it was sincere or just for Zhou Zhengdao and Li Qunfang to hear.

However, after Shen Siyuan repeatedly declined, Ding Youguang finally accepted reality, but he didn’t let Si Yuan walk away with nothing. After going online, for the first three months, they would still distribute profits as previously agreed, with everyone getting a share.

After three months, all earnings would be split between the three of them, excluding Si Yuan.

Ding Youguang’s arrangement was thoughtful, not shortchanging Shen Siyuan while also benefiting Zhou Zhengdao and Li Qunfang, making everyone happy.

From this, it was evident that Ding Youguang was someone capable of handling big matters, not blinded by immediate petty gains.

It’s known that the most and most stable profits of a game mostly come from the first three months of its launch. Generally, without new traffic, it tends to decline, with profits plummeting.

Ding Youguang’s arrangement was exceedingly fair to Si Yuan.

And for Zhou Zhengdao and Li Qunfang, getting an extra share of the profits was naturally welcome.

Everyone felt that Ding Youguang was someone you could get along with, generous, and capable of leading the team to make money. If Ding Youguang wanted to develop other games in the future, they would definitely be the first to respond and continue to work with him.

After scheduling a time to have a meal together, this matter would be considered completely resolved.

Then there was his own department; they had worked together for years and got along well, so naturally, he wanted to say a proper farewell to everyone.

"I’ll pick the place when the time comes," Si Yuan said.

"Just pick a decent place." Zhou Chuan said.

Everybody else immediately started to tease.

"Brother Chuan, you can’t say that. If we don’t overcharge now, then when?"

"Yeah, it’s the last meal. We won’t have another chance after this."

"Shen Siyuan, I want a seafood feast..."

"Tsk, what’s so good about seafood? I want Western food..."

"You don’t know anything. Don’t equate your everyday small fish and shrimp with seafood. We want that 808 yuan per person seafood buffet..."

...

The office was suddenly filled with a joyous atmosphere.

At this moment, Shen Siyuan’s phone received a text message from Ruan Hongzhuang.

Opening it, he saw a photo of Jiang Taoshi.

Shen Siyuan was initially puzzled, but then he noticed that in the photo, Jiang Taoshi had a very "wise" look in her eyes.

A wise gaze and a vacant expression made Shen Siyuan think of a dumb Husky with its eyes bulging roundly, looking silly.

"Taozi met my mom, and seeing her become so young, right now she’s doubting if there’s something wrong with her brain."

Shen Siyuan responded with a laughing emoticon, as this issue was indeed not easy to explain.

"Right now, I’m wondering how to explain it to her. Why can’t she just be a real fool? ε=(´ο｀*))) Sigh..."

"It has to be you, truly a best friend. ThumbsUp.JPG." Shen Siyuan was also amused and exasperated.

The two exchanged a few words casually before cutting off contact, with no idea how Ruan Hongzhuang was going to explain to Jiang Taoshi.

After all, it had only been a day since Jiang Yingxue had suddenly become over a decade younger. Such a noticeable change without any reasonable explanation would surely not convince Jiang Taoshi, as she wasn’t actually a fool.

Because he was resigning, Shen Siyuan was slacking off all morning. Well, even if he wasn’t resigning, he would probably be slacking off all the same.

However, to his surprise, Xiao Yue came looking for him.

"Yu Qiaoqing is dead." Xiao Yue said, looking somewhat saddened.

"Who?"

Shen Siyuan was surprised, who is Yu Qiaoqing?

"She’s Sun Yanan’s mother, and also the person who killed Zhao Xuerong..." Xiao Yue explained.

Shen Siyuan had never asked about Zhao Xuerong’s situation, giving her a great degree of freedom, not because he believed she wouldn’t do anything reckless.

Rather, as a Fan Soul, Shen Siyuan trusted she wouldn’t cause trouble for him, as that is the basic quality expected of a Fan Soul.

Shen Siyuan knitted his brows upon hearing this.

"Was she killed by Zhao Xuerong?"

Actually, even if Zhao Xuerong did kill her, Shen Siyuan couldn’t really blame her. After all, there’s a debt to be settled for a grievance, it’s only natural. He wasn’t a law enforcement officer, insisting on due process, fairness, and justice, leaving the judgment of sins to the government.

"No, she committed suicide, but... but..." Xiao Yue seemed conflicted.

Zhao Xuerong still didn’t know about this. Jealous of the relationship between Yu Qiaoqing and her daughter, she wanted to see if Yu Qiaoqing would turn herself in today, and if Sun Yanan would be very upset. She didn’t expect, however, to encounter the soul of Yu Qiaoqing after her death.

"But what?"

"But, I think she was a good person, a good mother..." Xiao Yue said, lowering her head.

Shen Siyuan extended his hand to pat her head and sighed, "Tell me in detail what happened."
