Chen Xu had been hesitant all along. First, he wondered which of the three girls he liked the most. But what he hesitated about even more was whether the girls liked him back. What if he confessed and the girl said, "Actually, I've always thought of you as a friend (or a brother)"... then they really wouldn't be able to be friends or brothers anymore.
In truth, Chen Xu was probably unsure of Zhan Jing's thoughts. This girl was so detached, almost aloof, that even Chen Xu couldn't fathom her attitude towards him. But Gao Xiaojie and Guan Yi, those two girls, each had their own feelings; Chen Xu wasn't stupid, how could he not know?
However, just as Guan Yi said, Chen Xu was determined to treat everyone equally.
Fish is what I desire, and bear's paw is also what I desire. Unable to have both, how would Chen Xu choose?
Since he couldn't decide, Chen Xu decided to just drag it out, at least they could still be together as they were now. However, Chen Xu now realized how selfish his thinking was.
Is he dragging his feet, and making the girl drag her feet too?
What is this if not selfishness?
What right does he have to make a girl heartbroken because of him? What right does he have to make her wait for him because of his selfishness?
He can't let go, that's right, he really can't let go right now.
He's already clarified his relationship with Gao Xiaojie, but can he really give up Guan Yi... and Zhan Jing too?
That's clearly impossible!
Chen Xu had been hesitant and indecisive, afraid of hurting one of them or causing pain to everyone. But he hadn't considered that the girl already loved him deeply, and she herself didn't mind sharing her love… so why should he care?!
Thinking of this, Chen Xu suddenly felt a sense of relief.
It seems like all the troublesome things from before have been resolved in an instant. A real man likes what he likes, why hide it? Why hesitate and overthink it?
Chen Xu hugged Guan Yi tightly, and at the same time, he could feel Guan Yi hugging him tightly as well. The force was so great that it seemed as if they were trying to squeeze their bodies together.
The close contact, the astonishing sensation of Guan Yi's chest against his skin, filled Chen Xu with even more guilt… A girl like this would be a celestial being wherever she went, adored by crowds like a star. Countless boys at Hexie University had a crush on her, but because she was so close to him, and because he was a celebrity, many boys hesitated… Of course, there were also many who were "unreasonable." But Guan Yi never showed them any interest.
How could I not know her feelings? How could I bear to let her down?
Suddenly, Guan Yi raised his head and kissed Chen Xu's lips deeply...
Chapter 338 The Third Kiss (Part 2)
The kiss was intense; Chen Xu even felt like he couldn't breathe for a short time. But he responded even more fiercely, and he could even feel his own roughness.
But Guan Yi's reaction was also crazy. The two kissed, their tongues almost intertwining wildly.
This was the third time the two had kissed.
The first time, around this time last year, was a light kiss in bed that made their relationship more ambiguous.
The second time, during Miwa's assassination attempt, Chen Xu's fatal kiss before jumping out of the car left Guan Yi unable to extricate himself from it.
This time, the third time.
With that kiss, the two finally confirmed their relationship... Since they liked each other, why not be together?
After a long while, their lips parted, and Guan Yi, her face flushed, looked at Chen Xu: "Did I bite you too hard just now?"
Chen Xu held her in his arms: "It doesn't hurt. It's my fault. I'm sorry. You can eat me, not just bite me."
"Don't talk nonsense, I'm not a praying mantis..." Guan Yi playfully slapped Chen Xu, then sighed, "I finally give in to you. I know you still have feelings for someone else, and I don't want to compete with Gao Xiaojie for anything. Although it makes me feel wronged, I don't want to put you in a difficult position."
Hearing this, Chen Xu felt even more guilty and hugged Guan Yi tightly, saying, "It's my fault for being too fickle. I've really wronged you."
Guan Yi gently shook her head and rested her head on Chen Xu's shoulder, indicating that she did not want to continue this topic.
The girl is just an ordinary person. Although she reluctantly accepted the fact that her man still had another woman in his heart and even contacted her, it was still a kind of pain. Of course, she didn't want to bring it up. In Guan Yi's mind, it was enough to seize this time to spend this wonderful time together with Chen Xu. All other worries... her family, the other two girls... she didn't want to think about them anymore.
Outside, the wind howled and the world was covered in ice and snow, but inside the house, spring was in full bloom.
Chen Xu greedily buried his head in Guan Yi's chest, feeling the amazing elasticity and size, marveling at the allure of her body.
This is a product of the creation of heaven and earth, a perfect body.
The two embraced, kissed, and breathed heavily... kissing every inch of each other's bodies. At this moment, Chen Xu didn't think about anything else, only loving the exquisite beauty beneath him.
Guan Yi's thoughts differed from Gao Xiaojie's. Although Gao Xiaojie was also willing to give her body to Chen Xu, she had other considerations. She felt that if she were to be prejudiced against Guan Yi and Zhan Jing, it would be unfair. However, Guan Yi had no such concerns. Since she loved Chen Xu, she would love him completely. Moreover, this woman had her own plans. Even if she couldn't be with Chen Xu in the future, at least she could give her first time to the person she loved now, and that was enough.
"Chen Xu, be gentle..."
After the storm subsided, Chen Xu lay on the bed with Guan Yi in his arms... He had finally become a man, and the feeling was indeed very comfortable, but also very tiring!
This is the first time for all of us!
While having sex is one of humanity's innate instincts, the problem is that if it's the first time for both people, it can be quite tricky and troublesome.
Fortunately, this is still in modern times. In any case, sex is a mysterious thing for young people like Chen Xu, but they are not completely ignorant about it... They didn't watch so many pornographic films for nothing, right? And it's not just men who watch them; many female college students also have these things on their computers.
In ancient times, well, the groom and bride probably had never even met before their wedding, and they were completely unaware of each other's backgrounds. So it is said that in ancient times, there would be a book of erotic pictures by the bedside during the wedding night, so that they could study them on the spot.
However, just looking at things is one thing, but not experiencing them firsthand is another.
Especially since it was their first time, they made quite a few funny mistakes.
Men's first time is usually very fast; often, in the heat of the moment, they ejaculate within seconds... That's exactly what happened to Chen Xu just now, and now he's so embarrassed... How shameful! Even premature ejaculation doesn't happen that quickly!
This even made Guan Yi, that vixen, giggle with alluring eyes: "I heard that virgins usually lose their virginity very quickly the first time. It seems my man is still a virgin, so I have no regrets." ...What kind of person is she?!
In fact, Chen Xu should be a virgin, but Guan Yi's keen intuition tells her that Chen Xu's relationship with Gao Xiaojie is not ordinary... Perhaps they have already crossed that line.
But unexpectedly, this was really Chen Xu's first time.
Unlike women, men don't have a hymen as a very obvious marker. In fact, men are easier to identify than women, since a hymen can be repaired for a few hundred dollars these days. But the way to identify a man's virginity is to see how quickly he had his first time.
A virgin's first ejaculation is quick, but his subsequent erection is also fast... unlike many older men who become impotent after ejaculation.
Of course, this method of identification can only be used once. After that, even if he was a virgin before, he is no longer one.
But the embarrassing moments were yet to come.
Um... Chen Xu can't get in.
Chen Xu was inexperienced, it was his first time... and the girl was also a first-timer, cough cough, let's not go into details, or it would probably get censored.
Anyway, their first time together was a mix of passion and laughter. Afterwards, they were both covered in sweat and leaned against each other sweetly.
Chen Xu has finally said goodbye to his virginity, but he feels very calm now.
Like a wave, after the peak comes the trough. Chen Xu held Guan Yi's perfect body and looked at this enchanting woman curled up in his arms like a kitten. Chen Xu had already made up his mind.
The girl gave me her most precious things, so I absolutely cannot let her down.
As for Gao Xiaojie, she was almost the same; she couldn't give her up either.
With two girls like these by my side, why should I still be fickle?
Chen Xu mentally slapped himself hard... Zhan Jing, this gentle and graceful girl, he couldn't be so greedy anymore. He was always wanting more than he had, always wanting more than he had. Wasn't that a perfect description of himself?
He already has such wonderful girls like Guan Yi and Gao Xiaojie, and neither of them cares. How can he still be thinking about other people?
That's it, a decision has been made.
Fortunately, there had never been any ambiguity between him and Zhan Jing; they were just good friends, so he decided to remain good friends... Thinking of this, Chen Xu smiled bitterly. Was he being too greedy? Was he falling for every pretty girl he saw? His relationship with Zhan Jing had always been just that of slightly closer friends, so why did he keep having such filthy thoughts?
Thinking of this, Chen Xu felt relieved, but also felt a little regretful. He could never forget the scene when he first entered the "Dream Paradise" software. At that time, the first person he thought of was Zhan Jing.
Ah, life can never be perfect. Chen Xu comforted himself with this thought. Being favored by these two girls was already a blessing he had earned over several lifetimes. To ask for more would be greedy.
Chen Xu thought to himself, but little did he know that once something had started, it was no longer under human control. Chen Xu wanted to let go, but was it too late?
That's a story for another time, so let's leave it at that.
Having established this relationship with Guan Yi, the two no longer needed to feel as awkward as before. Moreover, young men and women, having tasted the sweetness of love, and being quite curious about the opposite sex's body and sex, naturally, in the days that followed, spring arrived early, and there was no need to worry about day or night... whenever the mood struck, they would do it.
Chen Xu couldn't help but admire Guan Yi; indeed, this woman was truly a stunning beauty.
Not to mention that her figure alone is top-notch, she always does her best to satisfy Chen Xu during intimate moments. This woman is naturally alluring; in ancient times, she would surely be the kind of femme fatale who would cause "the spring night is too short and the sun rises too high, and from then on, the emperor will not hold court in the morning."
Whether Chen Xu attends court early or not doesn't matter much now, because all he cares about right now is waiting for the online game "Conquer the World" to be launched and make money.
This game was also distributed by Company S, and Yi Shuihan received a 30% stake in the distribution.
Because online games are different from software like "The Translator," which only requires distribution channels and personnel and printing CDs, online games require a lot of funds and personnel for server setup, preparation, maintenance, and so on.
Especially now, Chen Xu is preparing to launch a global online gaming campaign.
Actually, making this game "Smash Bros." a hit is really easy, because "SMMH's products are always top-notch" has long been a global consensus... If there were any people who didn't know SMMH before, then with the release of Translator, who in the world wouldn't know about this incredibly powerful online god?
For many journalists, it had been a long time since they had received any news about SMMH, so they were immediately excited when they heard the news.
SMMH developed an online game?!
The entire internet was abuzz with excitement; everyone wanted to see what kind of game SMMH was developing.
Yi Shuihan did not disappoint these reporters, because he was now going to have them create momentum for him.
Some in-game information was released, instantly silencing all the doubts online. What followed was a frenzy of activity, with all players asking when the game would be released.
Conquering these players isn't actually that difficult; the most effective way to make a first impression is through the game's graphics.
How important are the graphics of a game, especially a large-scale 3D game?
This directly impacts players' first impression!
As for the game graphics of "Conquer the World", they come from futuristic, cutting-edge technology, coupled with a program written in a spiral chain structure... need I say more?
Chapter 339 Public Beta (Part 1)
Company S's world-class online game, "Conquer the World," is destined to become a milestone in gaming history. What people talk about is not the game's later popularity, but also its early promotional efforts.
Such a great game naturally needs a lot of promotion; these days, even the best wine needs advertising! But the problem is that most online games are usually accompanied by game promotional animations to attract players with gorgeous visuals, and many people know that the level of detail in these CG animations is often several levels higher than that of the game itself.
But now Company S is facing a big problem... they don't have the promotional CG for this online game!
How can you promote an online game without CG?
What frustrates the people at Company S is that... they originally started as an internet company, and after receiving a large amount of funding from the globally popular software "Translator," Yi Shuihan naturally wouldn't stick to "Translator." Therefore, Company S is gradually diversifying, although its current focus remains on computers.
Therefore, Company S also has considerable capabilities to create exquisite 3D animations... but the problem is, what they make themselves is not as dazzling and realistic as a video shot directly from the game!
It's important to understand that modern large-scale online games, due to various limitations, cannot have overly high-end graphics. High-end graphics would inevitably overwhelm many users' computers. Furthermore, the sheer number of maps and 3D models in a large-scale online game, each meticulously detailed, would be incredibly impressive! However, the production of a few minutes of CG animation doesn't consider this. Companies pull out all the stops, striving to make the CG visuals dazzling, but overall, CG and game graphics are far from being on the same level.
But now Company S is facing the exact opposite situation... It's really embarrassing to admit. In the end, the company's strategists unanimously decided that they would not do the CG themselves, but would instead shoot and edit from the game... And this is also a big gimmick.
Sure enough, the idea had an almost insane effect.
