Huh? Isn't This A Galgame?-Chapter 76 - 73: Don’t You Want to Touch It?
Chapter 76: Chapter 73: Don’t You Want to Touch It?
[Marla! Double kill!]
[No, which guy just said the streamer is a legend? I actually believed it! Is this becoming famous for being bad? The terrible kind of legend?]
[Actually, you can’t blame the streamer entirely. He’s dealing with six conquest targets at the same time, all high-level characters with soul dolls. It’s strange if nothing goes wrong.]
[Yeah, this is the highest level beginner instance. For a player who just passed the trial map, starting like this is pretty normal.]
[By the way, these players just finished the trial. Why were they matched with such a difficult LV.5 map? That’s really unlucky.]
[It’s not about luck. The difficulty of the game’s matching map correlates with the player’s overall strength. Look at the streamer’s level.]
[Whoa! Bronze?!]
[Only passed one trial map and went straight to bronze?! How did he do it? Is he really that awesome?]
[Can a pro manage to score two negative points at the start?]
[Maybe the pro is practicing how to make a comeback in extreme situations?]
[Stop covering for him, really. Dude, is it so hard to admit you got it wrong? This is just a newbie, doesn’t know anything, took on six soul dolls as soon as he started, and now can’t handle it, right? As soon as this first main quest ends, he’ll reward himself with six soul wires, directly triggering the reverse heavenly plot, exhilarating!]

CEO’s office.
Listening to Wen Nan’s explanation, the female CEO’s face remained indifferent, "No need to explain to me."
Is there really no need to explain?
Then why don’t you raise this -15% conquest level?
Wen Nan stood by the desk, looking at the woman in the swivel chair with that stunning face.
As expected of a ten-star conquest target, besides the genuinely snowy-white chest, her looks are unmatched. She probably didn’t wear makeup because of her busy schedule, but even with such a natural face, she was the most beautiful character Wen Nan had seen in this game world, apart from the stunning moment when Yu Shujun removed her glasses.
As a CEO, her aura is even more outstanding, sitting there straight like a cold pine on a snowy mountain.
[Name: Guan Ailin (Erin)]
[Identity: Extremeyiceheart but soft inside CEO]
[Background: The young and accomplished Guan Ailin, relying on her keen market instincts, outstanding operational management skills, and prodigious work ethic, founded the Erin Group at just 28 years old from scratch.
Her precocity, hard work, and relentless dedication have made her life of more than twenty years all about her career. Her aloof personality left her with almost no close friends, she values kinship very lightly, and her love life is a blank slate.
"The higher you stand, the lonelier you become; the farther you see, the more out of sync you are with the present. If I’m destined to walk this path, I don’t care what others think..."
These words are constantly on Guan Ailin’s mind, and because of such beliefs, she’s always been alone but fulfilled and content.
It wasn’t until recently that an unexpected incident started changing the mindset of this determined workaholic.

[Conquest Difficulty: ★★★★★★★★★★]
The background introduction of this female CEO isn’t too long, but Wen Nan was stunned in place, eyes unfocused, looking for a long time.
The higher you stand, the lonelier you become...
The sentence in between made Wen Nan unable to come back to his senses for a long while.
Guan Ailin coldly said something, received no response, frowned, waved a hand in front of Wen Nan, "What are you daydreaming about?"
Wen Nan’s distracted eyes regained focus, landing on Guan Ailin’s face, and suddenly asked, "If I wanted to take you with me, would you be willing to come with me to the ends of the world?"
His tone was serious, catching Guan Ailin off guard, "What are you talking about? Haven’t woken up?"
After a pause, Wen Nan chuckled, shook his head, and quickly returned to normal asking, "Boss, what did you just ask me?"
Guan Ailin sighed, pointed to the projector on her desk, "I asked you to turn on the projector; let’s go through last night’s PowerPoint."
At this, Wen Nan’s heart tightened, but he quickly turned the projector on.
A black-and-white cover appeared with the simple and blunt words —
[The Joy of Two Sticks, You Deserve It!]
[Reported by: Zhang Beibei, Ye Jiu]
Uh, this report title was giving Wen Nan a phantom pain from an old ailment.
Guan Ailin’s voice, cold enough to freeze, spoke up: "I asked you, was this PPT made by you?"
Wen Nan carried the blame tightly on his shoulders, "Yes."
Guan Ailin’s voice became even colder, "You even managed to misspell your own name?"
Wen Nan gritted his teeth and acknowledged again, "This, I take ninety percent of the blame, one percent goes to the input method."
Guan Ailin continued asking, "Our company’s marketing department has produced so many sets of report templates with branded themes, why couldn’t you pick one of those? Why did you make a black-and-white one yourself? Do you think this funeral-style PPT is suitable for a sales team training session?"
Wen Nan shook his head, "Not suitable, not suitable, change it, change it right away!"
9527: [Attention, target ’Extremeyiceheart but soft inside CEO,’ current conquest level lowered to: -25%.]
Wen Nan: ?
He was completely agreeing with the other person admitting faults, so how is it that after discussing just one cover, it dropped another ten points? If they go through all twenty pages, won’t the conquest level drop to minus two hundred?
Agreeing with the other’s words doesn’t work, should he argue with the boss?
That doesn’t seem quite appropriate either...
[Mind Reading Technique] was still on cooldown, so Wen Nan simply turned on the automatic activation option for the skill in the system.
Meanwhile, Guan Ailin’s cool voice continued —
"Here, ’Our product lasts the longest on earth,’ this sentence violates advertising law, who taught you to write it like that?"
"And this map, how many times have I said to avoid using any maps as much as possible, it’s easy to make zz errors, did you take it to heart?"
"And then this Venn diagram, the proportion of results inside is obviously off at a glance, did you adjust it?"
...
Wen Nan suspected that if the scolding continued like this, he might be directly fired on the spot.
Fortunately, the conquest level stayed steady, maintaining at the initial -25%, without budging.
Wen Nan breathed a sigh of relief, his body relaxed, leaning back into the chair, his elbow unconsciously nudging a soft, elastic spot, immediately conjuring up a snowy white image in his mind.
"Sorry."
Wen Nan promptly withdrew his hand and sat up straighter.
In his mind, a soft female voice, spoke quietly:
’Earlier in the pantry, when your junior sister kissed you, why didn’t you dodge?’
’Now touching my chest, and you’re eager to pull away?’
Wen Nan: ?
