Chapter 938: Honor of Kings Selection Tournament Opens, Nationwide Frenzy

Upon hearing Li Yuan’s plans, Xia Qin instantly wrinkled her brow, feeling somewhat reluctant.

“Moving again? Isn’t it nice here?”

“I’m close to Zixia’s school here, and I’m familiar with the neighbors. Moving again would mean getting to know people all over again.”

“Old Li, what do you think? Should we move?”

Li Heng put down his chopsticks, intending to agree, but as his gaze met the expressions of his three daughters-in-law, he changed his tone.

“Changing houses is fine too; it’s indeed a bit cramped here, not enough space.”

His meaning was clear. Although the current house was a four-bedroom luxury in Modu, his son had three girlfriends…

No more room, absolutely not enough space!

Xia Qin was still somewhat unwilling. Over the past half year, she managed to familiarize herself with the neighbors, chatting with peers during her free time. Moving to a new environment was surely undesirable…

Li Yuan had anticipated this and nonchalantly brought out his prepared trump card.

“Mom, don’t you like growing your own vegetables? The new villa I’ve bought has a separate yard. You can plant some vegetables and flowers there.”

“And Mom, don’t you often complain about feeling a bit dizzy standing upstairs and the hassle of taking the elevator? In that villa, you won’t need to take the elevator; you can live on the ground floor, which is very convenient.”

“Besides, it’s not like moving there means you can’t come back here. You can come back whenever you want. The two neighborhoods aren’t far apart, just two or three miles away, separated by a couple of streets…”

Hearing Li Yuan’s words, Xia Qin was tempted, though she was still conflicted.

The prospect of a garden where she could grow vegetables was especially appealing to her.

Coming from a rural background, she used to enjoy planting vegetables like spinach, cucumbers, tomatoes, and peppers on the vacant land around her home back in her village. Although they weren’t worth much, it was fulfilling, convenient, and reassuring to eat…

But in Modu, it’s different. She’s had to give up this decades-old habit.

Seeing his mom still hesitant, Li Yuan unleashed his final ultimate weapon.

“Mom, look at us with this big family. If we want to enjoy some drinks or a gathering at home at night, there’s no room. What if Grandpa, Grandma, and Uncle come in the future? There’s no place for them to stay, we can’t possibly have them stay at a hotel, right?”

After Li Yuan finished speaking, he subtly signaled Li Zixia.

Li Zixia, who had been gnawing on braised ribs to the side, understood immediately when his older brother signaled him. He nodded and secretly gave Li Yuan an OK sign…

“Mom, my brother’s right. That place isn’t far, and having a bigger house is much more convenient.”

“I’ve been to see it; the villa is huge, three floors with 1000 square meters. I’ll have my own study room and can even buy a piano to learn from my sister-in-law…”

“Mom, let’s move over there, okay?”

Li Zixia shook his mother’s arm, using his charm to plead.

Zhong Tingyue also cheerfully chimed in, “Auntie, moving there would be more convenient too. We all live there and can often visit you and Uncle.”

Bai Weixi saw Zhong Tingyue expressing her opinion and wasn’t to be outdone, quickly agreeing.

“Exactly, Auntie, the environment there is better, and living there would be more comfortable. Auntie’s cooking is so delicious; we could often pop by for meals.”

Xia Zhijin just sweetly smiled at everyone without speaking, but her eyes showed anticipation.

For her, anything Li Yuan wanted to do, she would unconditionally support.

Seeing the whole family wanting to move, Xia Qin no longer had a reason to refuse, so she nodded in agreement.

“Alright then, let’s talk about it when we have some time in a couple of days.”

“Enough talk, let’s eat before the food gets cold.”

“Zhijin, Tingyue, Bai, dig in, don’t be shy in our own home.”

“Mm, Auntie’s braised pork is really delicious.”

“Whenever you want to eat, Auntie will cook for you every day.”

“Dad, come, let’s have another drink.”

“It’s the Lantern Festival today; a whole family together celebrating is a must.”

…

After the Lantern Festival, Li Yuan originally planned to fly to Beijing immediately to meet that person he’s been thinking about day and night.

But another matter stopped him, causing him to stay an extra day.

The “Honor of Kings” national selection announcement had been officially released, and the entire Datang Technology Company was busy following this news.

Longyu Building, Datang Technology Company.

This 2000-square-meter office was already crowded, with every spot occupied.

With the ongoing development of “Honor of Kings” and “Zhihu,” the number of people needed by the company is increasing.

By now, they’ve passed the 100 mark, transforming from a small studio to a small company.

And this small company isn’t simple; it’s already carved a large slice of the dessert from the Huaxia online gaming market, with a remarkably staggering profit level. “Honor of Kings,” within one month of its launch, has brought in 1 billion in revenue…

At present, in the domestic market, it’s the most profitable gaming company.

And now, the company is focused on making this dessert bigger, more enticing, more delicious, and well-known, building brand effect so that players develop an attachment to the game…
