Evening.
The big training room.
"Bang!"
"Again!"
"Hiss!"
"..."
On New Year’s Eve, Qin Shiqi refused to rest and was looking for a fight. As for watching the Spring Festival Gala, she wasn’t interested; she’s been feeling uncomfortable these days.
Not fighting makes her uncomfortable.
She heard Tang Qing say that her body reached the limits of this level and needs a breakthrough.
So.
She shouted to give it a try tonight.
"Painful!"
"Ouch!"
"..."
"Stop!"
After fighting for a while, Tang Qing shouted to stop, instructing her to start physical training. Qin Shiqi had no objections and went onto professional equipnt to crazily exhaust her strength.
Tang Qing watched from the side.
Soon.
Beep!
Beep!
Beep!
The numbers on Qin Shiqi’s wrist device reached the requirent.
"Whoosh!"
A sci-fi-looking lying pod next to Tang Qing opened, looking like a bathtub. It was half-filled with blue liquid, and without saying much, Qin Shiqi stepped inside.
Lying down.
The liquid imrsed her body.
Next.
The pod door closed.
This ti Tang Qing did not personally assist her breakthrough but developed this equipnt specifically for breaking through the Gene Lock. The liquid contains a large amount of Origin Energy.
It can provide what’s needed for the breakthrough.
However.
It’s also painful.
"Ah!"
A scream.
"Bang!"
A huge force hit the pod, leaving it undamaged.
"Hiss!"
Tang Qing didn’t relieve her of this pain, treating it as a way to strengthen her willpower. Power obtained too easily can make one lose themselves.
Thus.
During the training, Tang Qing didn’t assist at all.
Otherwise.
Qin Shiqi would have reached Level Five or Six by now, instead of being at Level Two after working hard for a year following a breakthrough of the first Gene Lock.
Inside the pod.
After a while, it finally cald down, and the blue liquid darkened a bit.
"Whoosh!"
"Huh!"
"It hurts so much, brother, if you have kids in the future, would you make them endure this too?" Qin Shiqi said with a bitter face, her soul quivering in pain.
Looking quite disheveled.
"Of course."
Tang Qing smiled.
This matter.
Treats everyone the sa, perhaps even stricter. Pampering is not of his interest, considering the large sphere of influence he controls.
If not properly taught.
What if they harm others? Kill them?
Obviously not. Jail them, letting the law punish them? Can the family bring themselves to do it? Eventually, he’d still have to use his influence to silence the victims.
Or.
Disappear?
Although he isn’t a just person, he can’t be too rebellious either.
So.
Rather than letting them grow crooked and harm others, it’s better to educate them well from a young age, letting them endure so hardships. But this matter is premature; having children to continue the legacy?
Why?
Isn’t his lifespan fake? Why the rush to pass on the inheritance?
"..."
"Huh!"
"Bang!"
Qin Shiqi punched the sandbag with wind, directly sending it flying. If it were a regular sandbag, it would not be sent flying but rather punctured directly.
"Haha, I’m stronger again."
Running.
Jumping.
...
After testing her new strength, Qin Shiqi was extrely pleased, while Tang Nian’er and Qin Shiyu watched with spirited eyes. Though it seed scary earlier.
They’ve been through it.
Understanding its inevitability.
Moreover.
Benefits are manifold.
Firstly.
Strength has increased.
Secondly.
Body has improved, like the blue liquid darkening, Tang Qing said it was body impurities. rely hearing about remaining impurities made both girls shudder.
Unacceptable.
A little pain is trivial but feeling dirty is intolerable.
Though.
Their physique lags slightly behind Qin Shiqi, "Work hard, aim to reach peak condition in about a week, ready to use the breakthrough pod."
"Alright."
"Mm."
The two nodded.
Then.
Along with Qin Shiqi, they began exhausting their strength.
"..."
Day Two of the Chinese New Year.
Morning.
Guests gathered at the manor, nurous business partners of Tang Qing ca to pay respects. As in previous years, several provincial leaders were present.
All year round.
Tang Qing.
They can’t see him; he’s been in Shanghai Stock Market the entire ti. Only during occasional visits to Qingyan City may they see Tang Kai. Only on the second day of the New Year are they entertained.
That’s when they can et both.
It’s not easy.
Quickly.
Everyone also noticed the couplets in the banquet hall were carved this year.
"Carved by Tangtang."
Tang Kai said proudly.
"No wonder, so extraordinary."
"Indeed!"
"Even using genuine gold as paint," Liu Qian added.
"..."
Everyone slightly clicked their tongues; using real gold as paint is indeed extravagant. But what everyone focused on was the carving by Tang Qing.
Everyone knows.
Tang Qing is highly talented.
Painting.
Carving.
Music.
Calligraphy.
...
He’s almost proficient in everything. Many things in the whole manor are crafted by Tang Qing. So works of Tang Qing released early on have seen crazy price increases.
Nonetheless.
Few sell them, those who receive items from Tang Qing aren’t lacking money. If it’s found out they sold them for money, how would they et again?
Thus.
They’re hard to co by.
"Next year, if you replace them with new ones, send them to ," Liu Qian joked.
"Sure."
Tang Kai didn’t mind.
Generally, Tang Qing’s works aren’t gifted unless personally given by him. But couplets are different; they’re replaced yearly and certainly thrown away.
Unlike typical works.
"Haha."
"Thanks."
Liu Qian laughed cheerfully.
Profited!
It’s not about the money, it’s about genuinely liking them. Reflecting on these years, his life couldn’t have been better.
Several billion net worth.
Rapidly rising!
Now.
Nearly forty billion, almost a hundredfold increase since eting Tang Qing. Others close to Tang Kai also obtained a set.
This ti.
Nurous couplets in the manor are carved.
So.
A considerable stock.
"..."
Manor.
On the huge lawn, laughter filled the air.
The facilities initially for the Tang family’s enjoynt were used yesterday, and not dismantled. They decided to invite so peers and children of the visitors.
For them to play.
"Today, I must get the highest score."
"Wishful thinking, am I nonexistent?"
"There’s too."
"This way of giving New Year’s money is truly novel."
"..."
Indeed.
Awarding money based on scores, this way of giving New Year’s money, refreshed them. Each liked it imnsely, devoting themselves to the ga.
Of course.
It’s mainly about the fun, money is secondary.
Being here.
None lacked money in Qingyan City; the amusent park is overcrowded, having a less congested place to play these gas is a bragging point.
"..."
Lively.
Day Two.
Thus passed. anwhile, the Davos Annual eting began; though he didn’t attend, the organizers still invited Tang Qing for a remote speech.
Rambling nonsense.
One round of bluffing.
Finished!
After ending the communication, Tang Qing’s figure vanished from the study, appearing on a planet, Pluto, which was excluded from the nine major planets in 2006.
A barren wasteland.
The only purpose.
Perhaps for skating fun, but it’s easy to drift due to low gravity. However, one advantage is having a place to land. Starting from Jupiter.
Consecutive four gas planets can only be viewed from afar. Pluto not only provides footing but contains ample resources to mine, offering a bit of worth.
