At the thought of this, Su Yang started to take more notice of Boss Guo.
He smiled and said, “Because it’s really such a coincidence. Guo Xiaoying is my junior. I’m also a student of Shanghai’s University’s Liberal Arts Faculty, I’m in my second year.”
Boss Guo’s mouth gaped open in shock.
‘During this collaboration with Su Yang, I’ve gained a certain understanding of him. Although I did not delve too deeply into it, I knew that Su Yang is the CEO of a corporation.
‘How big is this CEO? He has a piece of land in Shanghai!
‘In Shanghai! He has a piece of land in Shanghai, the center of our country’s economics…
‘Just thinking about it is scary enough already.
‘Although I’ve interacted with Su Yang before, I thought that he wasn’t actually too old. Instead, I merely thought that he looks like this because he managed to take good care of his complexion using his wealth. However, I really did not think that he’s actually only 18 or 19 years old.
‘Furthermore, he’s now just told me that he’s in his second year of university? He’s only one year older than my own daughter?’
At that moment, Boss Guo felt like the view he had of the world had been shattered.
He thought of his own daughter before he looked at the son of another family.
‘They two of them can’t even be compared against each other!’
In fact, Boss Guo had suspected that Su Yang was lying to him. However, Su Yang had called out Guo Xiaoying’s name on his own accord. Also, it was obvious that Su Yang had no reason to lie to him.
Therefore, he smiled and said, “That means the both of you know each other well. In that case, I’ll treat both you and my daughter for lunch.”
Su Yang’s mind was constantly thinking about the big project that the family before him had, so he agreed.
After they made their decision, Boss Guo called Guo Xiaoying. “Xiaoying, do you have a senior named Su Yang?”
He intended to use Su Yang as a topic of conversation. After Guo Xiaoying replied with a “yes”, he told her that he was collaborating with Su Yang and that they were going to Shanghai for a meal.
On the other end of the phone, Guo Xiaoying said, “Su Yang? Who is he? I don’t know him.”
Boss Guo was speechless.
Su Yang was even more speechless.
‘This is awkward.’
Looking at Boss Guo’s strange expression, Su Yang smiled awkwardly. Then, he took the phone and scolded Guo Xiaoying, “Guo Xiaoying! Are you itching for a beating after we haven’t met in just a few days? Don’t you even know who your senior is anymore? Have you gone bold these days? Have I not roasted you enough yet?!”
Hearing Su Yang’s voice, Guo Xiaoying fell silent. Perhaps, she didn’t expect Su Yang to be with her father.
It was not known if it was because of Su Yang’s [Verbal Cannon] or because Guo Xiaoying felt guilty about being caught red-handed. However, in the end, she still obediently greeted Su Yang and said, “Hello, senior.”
What happened next was much simpler, the three of them had a meal together. At the dining table, Boss Guo kept putting food into his daughter’s bowl while secretly observing the relationship between Su Yang and his daughter.
‘This feels weird.
‘The both of them are definitely very close, but there’s definitely something wrong.
‘Otherwise, Xiaoying wouldn’t have denied knowing who Su Yang is initially and then end up calling him senior obediently later on.
‘I know her personality very well because I’m her father. She’s the kind of person who would never accept having to make a loss. Even if she did, she would definitely try and have her revenge in secret. That’s why no one dares to mess with her.
‘But now… She’s just been completely defeated by President Su?
‘Something’s wrong, something’s very wrong…’
What he found even more suspicious was that during the meal, Su Yang kept asking him about his family’s situation. For example, did he have any other job aside from selling trees? Did he have any relatives?
It may have seemed like Su Yang was chatting casually, but Boss Guo kept feeling that he was trying to probe about something.
What was even more amazing was that even though those were supposed to be private and sensitive topics, when they came out of the young man’s mouth, Boss Guo just could not bring it upon himself to hate Su Yang.
Boss Guo felt that there was a big problem…
‘This young man is too good at talking, I hope he doesn’t deceive my daughter!’
Therefore, after Su Yang left after finishing his meal, Boss Guo secretly pulled his daughter to the side. He wanted to find out more about the relationship between the two of them and remind her that Su Yang was not a good match.
But who was Guo Xiaoying? She was the demoness.
After sensing her father’s desire for gossip, she rolled her eyes at her father and said, “I’ll be having a vacation over the winter for the next two days before I go home.” Then, she left as she wagged her butt.
Boss Guo stomped his feet and sighed at how extroverted girls were!
Actually, Guo Xiaoying didn’t think much of Su Yang, plus she was not a curious person. After Su Yang scolded her a few times and yet she did not get angry for some strange reason, she felt that there was something strange with Su Yang and she had to stay away from him.
Su Yang, on the other hand, had completely zero interest in Guo Xiaoying. He was just curious about what kind of business opportunity her family had that was worth 1.3 billion yuan!
In the end, after asking around, it seemed like there was no one in her family that could attract any attention. There was an older brother who owned a fish pond, a younger sister who worked in a textile factory, a cousin who worked in handicrafts and a cousin who worked in a comic studio…
‘The southerners have always been good at business, so it’s only normal for this family to have small bosses.
‘There are many small families like this in the south, but their assets could reach tens of millions of yuan at most, so it’s impossible for them to have more than a billion yuan.
‘I have no clues at the moment.
‘However, I feel that I should take things slow. I should slowly enter the other party’s family and get to know them. I’m sure I’ll eventually find an opportunity.
‘Business opportunities will always come to those who are well prepared!’
When the saplings arrived, Su Yang’s plan could finally be carried out.
He looked at the time and chose a Tuesday morning to execute his plans.
Nothing happened for the next two days. On Tuesday night, Su Yang looked at the time to find that It was 1am. Hence, it was almost time for the plan to be set in motion.
He opened the drawer in his room, but there was nothing inside. There was only a Bronze Prize Voucher with the words [Advanced Life Evolution Voucher] on it.
‘I’ve been keeping this in my drawer ever since I obtained it. Now, it’s finally time to use it!’
At that thought, Su Yang picked up the glass phone on the table and left the villa quietly, driving to the seaside of Shanghai.
When he arrived at the seaside of Shanghai, Su Yang looked around. After confirming that there were no people or cameras nearby, he took out his phone and let Janet out.
Janet knew about Su Yang’s plan. Hence, after he came out, he merely bowed to Su Yang. After confirming that there was no third party present, he dived into the sea and disappeared.
Su Yang stood by the shore and looked at the calm sea surface, waiting for Janet to make his move.
Moments later, water vapor started to rise from the surface of the sea. At first, there was only a small area that was “evaporating”, but gradually, the area expanded and more water vapor rose.
Soon, water vapor began to rise from all over the sea, as if it was boiling.
The water vapor slowly gathered in the sky before turning into layers of dark clouds.
In just a few minutes, Su Yang felt his body getting heavier.
Baoshan District was located in the northeast of Shanghai and was close to the seaside, so Janet could perfectly display the ability of [I am the Dragon King].
Very soon, the clouds that were formed by the water vapor started to press down. Gradually, the air in the mountain area became moist and gradually, it started to fog.
Baoshan District was near the sea, so there would be fog occasionally. Furthermore, it was the middle of the night, so no one felt anything unusual.
At that moment, after Su Yang watched Janet using his ability, he drove away from the beach and headed to his own plot of land near Technology Park to start his plan for the day!
When he arrived at his own plot of land, the place was surrounded by a two-meter tall wall.
Su Yang stopped the car and took out his keys. He then opened the only door on the wall and walked in.
After entering, there were 80,000 saplings in front of Su Yang!
What was he going to do now? Move it!
Su Yang began his “moving” plans when the fog became thicker and thicker until it began blocking one’s vision with its low visibility.
He held the glass screen and started to scan the saplings into the virtual space.
Little Deeny and the Little Monster Beans were picking up the saplings in the virtual space. Su Yang had moved the saplings outside the castle while the others slowly began to follow suit.
It was tiring to move the saplings in batches. It took Su Yang almost an hour to move all the saplings into the virtual space.
After transferring all the saplings in the fog, Su Yang was relieved. The second round of the Platinum Mission had been completed, all there was left was Gru’s matter.
And now, Su Yang had to do something more important, enlightening Lady Building!
Su Yang had been looking forward to that for a long time. Therefore, he did not hesitate to walk through the dilapidated buildings on the ground and arrived at a small building that was half built but still had six to seven floors.
After walking two rounds around the building, Su Yang nodded. ‘This building looks slender, like a willow tree. Even though it’s a little rustic, it should look quite nice after painting it.
‘The only problem might be that it’s half built… It’s completely bare on the top.’
Su Yang’s heart skipped a beat. ‘Would Lady Building end up being handicapped after I add a point?
‘However, judging from the missing parts… It’s most likely going to be missing a head, isn’t it?
‘Missing a head… Would that be considered to be a handicapped?’
Su Yang was dumbfounded.
However, Su Yang had been looking forward to it for a long time. So it was impossible for him to give up just because he was suddenly worried.
Therefore, he hesitated for a while and finally decided to add a point onto Lady Building!
‘Who cares! At least she’s a human!
‘However, I just can’t shake the feeling that it’s not going to be that simple for me to add this point…’
With that worry in his heart, Su Yang opened the system. Instantly, a semi-transparent [+] symbol appeared before his eyes. At the same time, a [+] symbol appeared on the unfinished building as well.
Su Yang chose the latter [+] symbol. Instantly, the entire unfinished building was covered with a layer of light, indicating that Su Yang had chosen a whole area instead of a single brick.
After choosing the unfinished building, Su Yang took out the [Advanced Life Evolution Voucher] from his pocket and tore it apart.
As Su Yang tore off the [Advanced Life Evolution Voucher], a notification appeared before him. [Are you sure you want to use the Advanced Life Evolution Voucher on the unfinished building?]
Su Yang clicked [Yes].
