“Good morning, Mr. Cen.”
“Mr. Cen, good morning!”
As the passing employees greeted him, Cen Chen responded to each without the previous petulance he displayed with Ye Qiu.
Once he entered the office, the previously listless crowd outside perked up.
“Did you see that car downstairs? It’s the same one that caused a sensation last time!”
“How could you miss such a big car? Mr. Cen is truly a winner in life—successful in his career, handsome, and considerate.”
“It’s different for someone with a boyfriend; you can see how Mr. Cen looks revitalized. We’re not the same.”

Chapter 54: Game Literature PUA Male
Ye Qiu smoothly met Cen Chen’s parents. Cen’s father, initially displeased at his son being taken away by an unknown minor character, rapidly changed his attitude upon seeing Ye Qiu present more than half of the shares of the Illusion Company, along with proof of his overseas assets.
Upon their first meeting, Cen’s father, already simmering with anger, reached his boiling point when he saw Ye Qiu’s “beast in a suit” appearance.
With that charming little face, he looked utterly unreliable… Although he was tall, it’s the essence that matters—he might be just a slacker. The more he looked, the more dissatisfied he became.
If Ye Qiu had been timid and without any sense of responsibility, Cen’s father might have let it go, but this person not only didn’t back down but showed genuine intent in approaching them, leaving him no excuses to unleash his fury.
His son stood there, acting considerate, but all grown up now—no longer under his control.
“What’s going on with you two?” Cen’s father decided to take the initiative, catching them off guard.
Since he learned that his son was gay, he analyzed various potential partners for his son, never expecting it would be an unheard-of nobody!
As someone who could not bring benefits to the family, even if Cen Chen liked him deeply, he would never agree to this. Regardless of how much Cen Chen liked that person, he intended to reject him.
Just wait, soon this little brat will hide behind Cen Chen, and when that happens, I’ll expose his true self with a few ambiguous remarks, Cen’s father thought smugly.
“Sorry, we brought some things and arrived late,” Ye Qiu said.
Cen Chen was unconvinced, “Dad, we clearly agreed to meet at six, and we arrived an hour early.”
Seeing Cen Chen, who was already inching towards a rebellious attitude before marriage, Cen’s father felt he might just have a heart attack from anger, his tone growing more unfriendly. “Is there anything more important than meeting your future father-in-law?”
Ye Qiu respectfully handed over the folder he brought to Cen’s father.
Cen’s father sneered and opened the folder under Cen Chen’s eager gaze. Upon seeing the contents, his hand trembled slightly, nearly dropping it.
If this were another company, he might not care, but this was Illusion, the world’s first holographic company. If it were just a game, he wouldn’t be concerned, but the latest news from the National Administration has successfully brought holography into real life—it’s not merely a game.
This indicated that in the future, there could be simulated training in real life through holography, including new therapies. By utilizing modern technology’s computer wave grouping characteristics to determine the location and distance of organs within the body, the surgical success rate would vastly improve. Furthermore, because the holography connects to the human brain, many patients with active cerebral cortexes could potentially communicate with the outside world in virtual projections—unprecedented.
The founder behind Illusion has always been a mystery in the industry, but now he had suddenly transformed into his son-in-law. Cen’s father couldn’t help but smirk at how shocked his old friends would be upon hearing this news, but he quickly restrained himself and continued reading with a frown.
The seasoned old fox in the business world sniffed the opportunity as soon as Illusion went public, but Illusion only chose a single company, Double Star, for cooperation. He had always worried about unfavorable intentions from the other party, but it seemed that his son had assured him all was well. Perhaps they had already been together back then. Cen’s father was displeased; why hadn’t they mentioned such important matters earlier?
He glared at the two of them. As the saying goes, the father-in-law looks at the son-in-law with constant dissatisfaction; even if he was satisfied, he wouldn’t show it.
The standard for judging a wealthy family was never about how many assets one had but rather the profound background, or whether they held significant political influence in the locale. If it was only a little wealth, it wouldn’t impress him. True affluent families not only possess wealth but also have considerable influence in the political and economic realms of a nation or ethnic group.
According to the information Ye Qiu presented, Illusion was far from the superficial qualities it displayed, as a mere entry had already caused a global sensation, not to mention the treasures hidden beneath the metaphorical iceberg. It seemed they were involved in both biomedical and technological fields, and if any project they operated succeeded, it would bring tremendous changes to the world—all backed by such technological support, the future seemed immeasurable.
What Ye Qiu brought was precisely what the Cen family currently lacked. The era was advancing rapidly; without innovation, they would be swept away by the torrents of history.
Cen’s father placed his hands behind his back, adopting the demeanor of an enlightened father-in-law of the new era. “We live in a new age now; I’m not an old fossil who judges people by their backgrounds. Since Cen Cen likes you, I’ll respect your choices.”
He made no mention of his earlier intimidating demeanor.
As for Cen’s mother, she believed that her marriage with her father-in-law was merely a business alliance, and since her son had grown up, he could make his own choices. Moreover, her efforts to earn money were precisely to enable her children to live unhindered lives, vastly different from her own. The only one she was dissatisfied with was Cen’s grandmother, but no one cared about her opinion.
“Your parents don’t seem to mind that you like men?” Ye Qiu asked, puzzled.
