Su Yang stopped in his tracks when he saw the Ferrari. He was puzzled. ‘Tang Jing is back? Isn’t she a little early?’
Just as that thought crossed his mind, the door opened and Tang Jing alighted from the car in her business attire.
Su Yang looked at the time. ‘It’s only 8:30pm. She’s really early.’
Tang Jing looked exhausted. Obviously, working for an entire day was not easy for her. However, her eyes lit up when she saw Su Yang. She walked over and gave him a gentle hug.
Su Yang froze on the spot, perhaps he was not mentally prepared for such an intimate behaviour.
Probably sensing Su Yang’s stiffness, Tang Jing’s gentle voice sounded from his chest. “I’m a little tired… Let me hug you for a while. Also… I don’t know why, but I suddenly missed you just now and really wanted to see you.”
Su Yang’s face softened when he heard the woman’s gentle words. He hesitated for a moment before he placed his hand on Tang Jing’s back and patted her gently. However, he could not help but wonder if he had touched Little Hus just now.
Tang Jing leaned against Su Yang’s broad chest and closed her eyes comfortably. She felt extremely secure at that moment…
After hugging him for about a minute, Tang Jing left Su Yang’s embrace and wrapped her arm over his naturally. Then, she smiled and said, “Thank you, Little Yang…”
‘Little… Yang?
‘Why does that nickname sound weird?
‘Should I be bleating now?
‘Bah, bah?’
Su Yang’s face turned red when he heard the shameful words and felt the huge softness on his arm.
Tang Jing acted as though she did not notice anything and pulled Su Yang into the villa.
In the villa, Tang Xiaomi was still playing with Gru and Dagger Girl. However, the child was quick-witted. When she heard the footsteps, she quickly asked both monsters to act as dolls.
The 2 monsters seemed to have mysteriously gained the talent to stop moving the instant they were told to. Their eyes lost focus and they really looked like dolls.
Tang Jing walked over and let go of Su Yang’s arm. Then, she squatted down in front of her daughter and asked gently, “Xiaomi, have you been good today?”
Tang Xiaomi giggled and threw herself into Tang Jing’s arms. She said coquettishly, “Mommy, of course I’ve been good.”
Tang Jing’s eyes were filled with smiles as if she had washed away a lot of her fatigue. She gently took Xiaomi into her arms and slowly stood up.
Xiaomi wasn’t exactly very light at the time, so Su Yang was afraid that Tang Jing would sprain her hips. Therefore, he hurried over to hold her hand while his other hand was on her waist.
Sensing Su Yang’s concern, Tang Jing turned around and smiled gently.
Su Yang felt his heart skip a beat.
That night, Su Yang collected the 2 Quickgold Monsters and fed them 300 kilograms of scrap metal. Both the Quickgold Monsters were beginning to have some doubts…
Initially, both Quickgold Monsters were grubbing over the water pipes that Su Yang handed over. In fact, they almost fought each other over their food.
However, when they realized that there was ample food for them, pipe after pipe… Their consumption speed gradually slowed down.
In the end, Su Yang, who was squatting on the ground, took out a water pipe and held it in front of the two of them. As he smiled and said, “Go on, eat it. Hurry up.” The 2 Quickgold Beasts’ eyes were filled with despair…
After finishing the 300 kilograms of scrap metal, the room was filled with round liquid metals.
Su Yang counted and felt that there were at least 600 eggs of them.
‘In that case, it would take about half a kilogram for the Quickgold Monsters to lay 1 egg of liquid metal.
‘If that’s true, then its efficiency isn’t very high…’
Su Yang took a closer look at the 2 Quickgold Monsters. While Su Yang wasn’t paying attention, the 2 Quickgold Monsters had already secretly pulled some of the liquid metals to their side and hid it under their bodies.
Unfortunately, they were too small to cover everything.
The 2 monsters were not dumb. They knew they could not hide it under their bodies, so they found a small nest to hide the liquid metal inside.
Su Yang secretly counted. ‘Out of both Quickgold Monsters, 1 of them hid 14 eggs while the other hid 17., bringing it to an approximate total of 30 eggs.
‘Looks like the chances of it becoming “hatchable eggs” for new little Quickgold Monsters is about 1 out of 20.
‘Looks like I know how to hatch new Quickgold Monsters in the future now.’
Su Yang ignored the two little Quickgold Monsters and called Little Deeny over.
Seeing the liquid metal on the floor, Little Deeny’s eyes lit up. She quickly took out her avatar from her pocket and tossed it into the room.
Under Little Deeny’s control, the thumb-sized Little Deeny ran toward the liquid metal.
All the liquid metal that was absorbed into her body had fused with her as if it were part of her body.
Through her naked eyes, she saw her avatar growing from the size of a thumb to the size of a cup, then to the size of a wine bottle, and finally the same size as Tang Xiaomi.
After absorbing all 500 pieces of the liquid metal eggs, Little Deeny’s avatar finally transformed to her normal size.
The only difference was that her avatar was covered in silver and her body was glowing. Her hair, eyes and every part of her body was made of silver liquid metal, making her look like a robot from the future.
Previously, when Little Deeny was about the size of a thumb, some parts of her body could not be seen clearly. However, now that she had grown bigger, every part of her body could be clearly seen because she did not have any clothes on, thus stunning Su Yang.
Little Deeny seemed to have noticed Su Yang’s gaze and she snorted softly. Her body trembled for a moment and her back suddenly opened. Then, a pile of liquid metal gushed out and covered her entire body. A moment later, a silver dress appeared on her body.
‘But… isn’t this still part of her body? It’s no different from being naked.
‘I don’t understand what Little Deeny is thinking.
‘However, no matter what, Little Deeny can finally work in the artificial intelligence laboratory, now that her avatar’s bigger.’
The next day, Su Yang placed her in a suitcase and had Janet carry her to the artificial intelligence laboratory.
As for why Su Yang did not carry it herself… it was because he could not carry it!
Little Deeny’s liquid metal did not look like much, but it was not light at all, weighing a whopping 100 kilograms. Su Yang only had [Close Combat Ability], not [Hercules Ability]. Therefore, of course he could not lift it…
Su Yang placed Little Deeny’s liquid avatar into the artificial intelligence laboratory. After a while, the pool of liquid metal formed Little Deeny. Su Yang then took out the server that he had taken into the virtual space yesterday and left the rest to Little Deeny.
After the artificial intelligence research lab came to an end, Su Yang continued to deal with the other investments.
He first gave Lin Jiali’s company 5 million yuan to ease the financial pressure on Tan Mei’s side, also reminding her to continue her discussion with Han Yi about her return to work.
Soon after, he returned to Qidian E-Commerce and got Wang Dong to report to him about his work. Now that Qidian E-Commerce had officially started to expand, the leader was Su Yang’s right-hand man, Li Zijun. Su Yang was still very assured about Li Zijun’s 3-star talent.
His reassurance was plausible as well. Su Yang looked through a pile of reports and documents and realized that everything was in order, there was nothing else for him to do.
As Li Zijun’s assistant, although Wang Dong’s pioneering spirit was lacking, he was very mature. If he cooperated with Li Zijun to prevent her from being radical, he would be a very suitable candidate as well.
After the 3 projects were settled, Su Yang went to Sanque’s health supplements factory. He wanted to inspect and see if there was anything he could help with. However, he was chased out by Sanque, who said that Su Yang was pretending to be knowledgeable and that he was causing trouble.
After 2 days of Su Yang’s guidance and brainwashing, the film company’s special effects studio was already on the right track.
At that moment, Su Yang realized that all his projects seemed to have been settled.
‘But… I’m not done spending my money yet!’
He opened the system.
[Silver Mission: Investment Diversification]
Mission Objective: Invest 50 million yuan on 5 projects.
Mission Completion: [Project (5 / 5)], [Investment Amount: 25681235 / 500000]
‘I’ve already completed the amount of investments required, artificial intelligence, Sanque’s health supplements, film and television special effects studio, Lin Jiali’s management company and Qidian E-Commerce. Exactly 5 projects.
‘But there’s still quite a sum of money left…’
Su Yang hesitated. ‘What should I do now?
‘Spend all the money?
‘Is there a safer way to spend the money?
Su Yang could not help but think of Little Hus’s [Potential Sniffing] in terms of financial. ‘Should I go back to investing in stocks again?
‘If he can double the amount like last time, then I would have more cash on hand. In fact, I might even be able to earn more from the special effects of “Wolf Warriors”.
‘But… Little Hus only has 5 chances a day to use its [Potential Sniffing], and the stock market is ever-changing. It would be too late for it to sniff one stock after another, so what am I supposed to do?’
For a moment, Su Yang was in a dilemma. He felt that he had reached an impasse for his Silver Mission.
After thinking about it for a whole day, Su Yang still could not think of a solution. In the end, he decided to put aside the Silver Mission temporarily and think about it again the next day.
That was because he had another important thing to do next, dating Chu Xia.
At 4pm, Su Yang ran home and drove his Mercedes to school.
Perhaps it was because they had seen the spectacular sight of ten sports cars, or perhaps it was because they had seen Su Yang drive that car too many times, the students from the liberal arts academy did not pay much attention to it.
When Su Yang arrived at the entrance of the female dormitory, he gave Chu Xia a call. Soon, Chu Xia and Wang Bei walked hand in hand to the car. Su Yang got out of the car and opened the back door for the two girls to sit in before closing it.
After that, Su Yang got into the car and asked for the destination before starting the car.
The Mercedes-Benz made a U-turn in the female dormitory and then the 3 of them left the liberal arts faculty.
What Su Yang did not notice was that when he opened the door for Chu Xia and Wang Bei, Guo Xiaoying and Xue Ya were walking towards the female dormitory.
Xue Ya held Guo Xiaoying’s hand and pointed at Su Yang.
Guo Xiaoying looked in the direction of her finger and said in surprise, “Isn’t that the passerby senior?”
[Affinity -2]
Just as Su Yang was driving, a notification popped up before his eyes, startling him.
His face was filled with question marks. He had no idea what was going on, but he was driving, so he could not figure out the reason.
Soon, the car arrived at the gathering place, a… Teahouse.
Fatty Lu was waiting with a smile.
