Miao Ru was also defeated by Lin Jiaxue’s ’submissive’ attitude. Looking at Lin Jiaxue’s gentle face, Miao Ru truly felt what the feelings of childhood sweethearts and innocent love were like, or perhaps it was all down to their personalities.
The two were familiar with each other, inseparable, and undividable. Everything else wasn’t important, truly not important.
"Jiaxue, I envy you so much," Miao Ru said, resting her head on her hands and looking at Lin Jiaxue.
"You’ve said that three tis already. It wouldn’t be good if my brother-in-law hears this," Lin Jiaxue replied with a slight smile.
Miao Ru chuckled, "He won’t know. My husband and I are still very much in love."
Lin Jiaxue didn’t respond.
The two quietly watched a historical drama on the TV.
After a while, Tang Qing ca out dressed in a large vest after taking a shower. When he appeared, Lin Jiaxue rushed to get his laundry. Miao Ru glared at Tang Qing and said, "Why don’t you help?"
"Uh, got it," Tang Qing responded with a sly smile and turned to walk to his room.
"Hey, that’s not what I ant," Miao Ru quickly clarified. She thought Tang Qing was going to bully Lin Jiaxue.
Unfortunately, Tang Qing already disappeared at the doorway of the second bedroom.
Of course, Tang Qing wasn’t going to stir trouble.
He was just going to help.
At night.
Tang Qing was alone in the room.
Good.
He would go to the training area to practice his skills and then catch a few dumb crabs to steam and eat. Ahh, and there were also "ho-raised" hares. Thanks to the animals in the training area not mutating too much, their size and taste were very touching, making the experience especially satisfying.
Moreover, the reproductive rate of other animals in the training area was constantly increasing. Animals like cows, horses, and sheep were almost always in mating season and constantly reproducing. In just two to three months, the population had more than doubled.
Especially the rabbits. They could reproduce fast, no wonder they were called the destroyers of grasslands. Their population had almost increased tenfold. Fortunately, the soldiers had controlled their numbers so the fences of the training area weren’t entirely filled with rabbits.
The largest rabbit was as big as an adult dog, with red eyes that were sowhat creepy. They even had a certain level of attack power. An ordinary human would have to pay a price to catch one. But these rabbits were only faced with robots, so they were no different from docile ho-raised rabbits. A slap would teach them how to behave as a proper rabbit.
Tang Qing was practicing his skills.
Two soldiers were in charge of the steaming and grilling.
...
On the other side.
Chai Ren rushed ho and quickly arrived at his father’s study.
"What’s going on?" Chai Guoqiang asked, lifting his head. Generally, Chai Ren wouldn’t disturb him without reason.
Chai Ren hurriedly sat down and said, "Father, Tang Qing said today that he wants to set up a film company. I invested one billion, and I persuaded Zheng Lin to invest another billion. Tang Qing invested four billion. The company will be established next week."
Regarding matters about Tang Qing, Chai Guoqiang had instructed him to report promptly.
Chai Guoqiang asked in confusion, "A film company? Or an entertainnt company?" The two were quite different.
"It’s a film company, primarily investing in and producing science fiction films. His goal is..." Chai Ren relayed Tang Qing’s goals and Chai Guoqiang’s eyes filled with admiration. He understood the dostic level; in two words, in its infancy.
Especially when he heard about the special effects company and the almost divine special effects technology.
The slightest hint of shock flitted through Chai Guoqiang’s eyes.
Special effects?
Computers?
Internet?
Tying these three together, Chai Guoqiang connected them with a mysterious force he had recently encountered – the controller of the family search network and the mysterious hacker team cooperating with the country.
"Tell more about what he said about special effects and his friend," Chai Guoqiang asked earnestly. As it’s a weighty matter, if it’s true, their family might’ve stumbled upon a massive benefit.
Although Chai Ren was surprised, he didn’t think much of it. He said, "Tang Qing said his friend will establish a special effects company in the future, and the special effects team will move in. But he didn’t say when, just when the ti is right. Oh yes, when discussing the ’Little Angels’ Charity Foundation with Zheng Lin earlier, we both decided to donate so money. According to him, his friend will donate one billion RMB to ’Little Angels’ next month. I’m not sure if it’s true, but that’s all there is."
"What, he’s donating one billion RMB to the Little Angels Foundation?" Chai Guoqiang stood up in shock. The one billion RMB was not what concerned him. Normally, several billion would be more like it. It was because he had rembered sothing.
If he connected all the recent ’anomalies’.
Chai Guoqiang couldn’t even dare to imagine.
If all these things were linked together, many things would now have a proper explanation. Chai Ren’s rescue in the United States, Ye Hong’s return to the country, the layout in Africa, etc. But, wasn’t this fish too big? Africa, the United States, Asia, Myanmar, Tongtian; if they were all controlled by a single force behind them.
Then the issue had beco outrageously big.
The look of shock wasn’t fading from Chai Guoqiang’s face. Chai Ren was puzzled. What was happening to his father? This was just one billion RMB and they weren’t even donating it to their family. Was there a need for such a dramatic reaction?
Chai Guoqiang was no dullard. Although he lacked concrete evidence, the more he thought about it, the more plausible it seed. He didn’t prefer guilty until proven innocent. After so logical reasoning, Chai Guoqiang was 70% sure that Tang Qing’s friend had so dealings with the force behind the family search network.
He didn’t know if it was the sa force, but there was undoubtedly a close relationship.
This thought remained stuck in his head.
At the sa ti, he was caught in a struggle. Should he report this? His duty demanded it, but once reported, it might not be good for Tang Qing. It might also anger the other party. After careful consideration, Chai Guoqiang chose not to report and decided to wait and watch first.
The other side probably has a plan, it’s best to not disturb their plan, considering their attitude seems rather ambiguous from the interactions so far.
Having made the decision, Chai Guoqiang told Chai Ren, "Alright, just do as we planned before, take the ti to properly investigate the source of that special effects team."
Chai Ren looked puzzled, but still said, "Yes, Father."
With that said,
Chai Ren left as there seed to be nothing else to address. Chai Guoqiang did not have the heart to look at the materials anymore. After so thoughts, he made a secret call: "Send soone to investigate a rising power in Myanmar, who is also the jade and jewel supplier for Thailand’s richest Chinese, Tang Kai. Report back to within a week."
...
The next few days.
Chai Ren was still entertaining Tang Qing and his crew around Beijing; they lavishly ate, drank and had a great ti. However, unfortunately, Lin Jiaxue was always ’occupied’ by Miao Ru, so he didn’t have the chance to take advantage of anything.
anwhile, the real estate company has been established. It’s busy forming departnts. The manager is soone whom Chai Ren found. Once the preparatory work is complete and everything is in place, the company will start to build properties.
On the 15th of July.
Friday.
Inside the ’Transient’ box of ’Autumn Palace.’
It’s filled with people.
Because Tang Qing was leaving the next day, all the new friends ca to see him off. The atmosphere was extrely warm and lively. Unfortunately, Shen Yi returned to Shanghai the morning before to begin the resignation process.
"Brother Tang, you must stay with next ti, okay? Free accommodation," Zheng Lin said with his arm around Tang Qing’s shoulder. Zheng Lin stayed up all night writing several movie script outlines, hoping that he would be able to produce them and thus, relying on Tang Qing’s special effects.
"Alright, no problem. I’ll stay with you next ti, Brother Zheng," Tang Qing agreed. Staying anywhere is the sa. Naturally, if it’s free, it’s even better. With the potential high return rate on Zheng Lin’s shares, Tang Qing was at ease.
"Haha, great."
"..."
Next day.
Early morning.
After packing up, Chai Ren drove Tang Qing and his crew to the airport.
"Brother Tang, sister-in-law, and you guys, you can’t miss the wedding feast on the 17th of September," said Chai Ren.
"Don’t worry, Young Mister Chai, we won’t miss it. Otherwise, Sister Zhan would bla to death," Tang Qing laughed. Over these days, the relation between Zhan Xi and Lin Jiaxue has beco extrely close. If they don’t go, Zhan Xi’s endless chatter would bury him.
"Haha, good, have a safe trip."
"Take care."
After that, Tang Qing and the three others entered the airport. As they had previously sent back the gifts for Tang Qing’s cousin, Qin Shiqi, who was slightly upset knowing that they’d been living comfortably in Beijing.
Two hours later.
At the provincial capital’s airport.
Tang Qing and the other three walked out. They had been playing for almost a month and were ntally and physically tired, except for Tang Qing.
"Let’s go. The car is waiting outside. I’ll drive," Tang Qing said, holding Lin Jiaxue’s hand and walked towards the exit. Feng Sen and Tang Kai hurriedly followed.
The car had been kept at his second uncle’s company after it was driven there previously. It was brought over by his company staff this morning. After his second uncle’s company was reorganized and divided up, the provincial capital’s branch beca an office.
Tang Qing was driving a shiny rcedes-Benz.
Heading towards Qingyan City.
It was drizzling outside the window, which was very refreshing.
"Jiaxue, let’s go back to the village at the end of the month. You also haven’t seen Grandpa and the others for a long ti," Tang Qing said. After the National College Entrance Examination, Lin Jiaxue’s grandma had a birthday. But this ti, Tang Kai, her second uncle, ca back and thus, they didn’t go back.
Now, they still had so ti before school started. Of course, they should go back and visit before leaving. He hopes to stay for ten days to half a month. Otherwise, how could he have a world of two of them? It was not right to run to Lin Jiaxue’s house every day.
"Okay, I miss them too," Lin Jiaxue softly said.
"Kai Zi, how about you? What are your plans for this ti?" Tang Qing asked.
"I’ve no any particular places to go. I’m planning to go and help out at my father’s shop, do so odd jobs," Li Kai said.
Hearing this, Tang Qing was shocked and confused, "When did you beco so sensible that you’re going to help out at the shop and stop fooling around in the internet cafe?"
Hearing this,
Li Kai gave a bitter smile and said, "What’s the point of ssing around? These days, I’ve t Chairen, Shenyi, and Zheng Lini and other big brothers. I’m a bit enlightened now. They are already so amazing with such deep backgrounds. They could actually enjoy a great life by just lying down, but they are still working and running around. I’m just an ordinary person, why should I slack?
The things he saw and heard these days totally refreshed his worldview. The life of the second generation he saw and heard was totally different from what he had perceived. There was no debauchery, no frivolity, no ignorance, but more intelligence, ntality, vision, knowledge, and ambition.
If he doesn’t make a little more effort, in the future if he ets them, he wouldn’t have anything to talk about. Not to ntion anything else, take Tang Qing, for example, he could often chat with them. But what about him? He was struggling to think about what to say.
This feeling of incompetence.
Is sothing he can’t accept.
It’s sothing he can’t put up with. Self-inflicted, life can’t be lived. He suddenly had a sense of ’initial insight’ into the aning of this phrase. He wants to make progress, he wants a future, especially he wants to be respected, rather than being treated as Pedestrian A.
