Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Hearing what Mu Tie said, Ling Xiaoyi finally understood that luck did not affect success. action

When others looked at Hong Dali, they only saw Hong Dali’s squandering ways and found his doings shameful. Their impression was that he was a prodigal son who depended on his parents, who gave him everything.

But Hong Dali’s father Hong Weiguo, and Old Elder Hong Tu, had greater insight.

They might not be able to guess the meaning behind Hong Dali’s every action, but they could see the results of all the things that he had done. Regardless of how others commented on Hong Dali’s squandering, they fully supported Hong Dali. Even if Hong Dali made a passing remark on how the land from the outer area of Tianjing Mountain to West Fourth Loop was good, they were willing to invest 2 billion and find all ways to buy that piece of land.

Liu Yihui, the President of Turkey Network, knew Hong Dali’s luck was invincible and decided to cooperate with the Hong Family. Liu Zhongyuan’s father being sick might have been a determining factor, but the real reason was because of Hong Dali.

And now, Mu Tie came along.

Mu Tie was very decisive. Perhaps he couldn’t see how Hong Dali made money doing the things he did. But that didn’t affect his decision to invest in Hong Dali. His thinking was rather simple—Hong Dali might have been able to make money from squandering once or twice, but it was definitely more than luck if he did it eight or ten times. Regardless of whether it was due to Hong Dali’s luck or ability, Mu Tie cared more about the results.

The results which showed the more he squandered, the more he earned.

That was sufficient.

Ling Xiaoyi thought about it and slowly said, “Mr. Mu, I will pass your message. Perhaps I should discuss further with Master and Old Elder.”

Mu Tie laughed. “All right. Miss Xiaoyi is indeed a straightforward person. For the next few days, I will go around the area to look at Dali’s estate, as well as visit Big Turtle the Black Tortoise. Speaking of which, I heard that Dali seem to get along easily with animals? The animals get close to him very easily, is that true?”

It was not surprising that Mu Tie knew so much about Hong Dali. Ling Xiaoyi smiled and said, “At the moment, only Young Master can tame Big Turtle. When Young Master is not around, no one else can get close to Big Turtle.”

Mu Tie nodded his head. “Haha, that’s good. Animals are usually more sensitive toward humans. I can easily trust people that are well-liked by animals. That’s that, then. I will go around and take a look with Zixiao. I will await good news from you, then, Miss Xiaoyi.”

“Yes. Mr. Mu, please!”

...

At the same time, Chenhui Building, first floor. Inside the Forest Leprechaun Bar.

Mu Zixiao didn’t find Hong Dali when he searched Chenhui Building. Hong Dali was sitting at the bar with Li Nianwei. They weren’t having a date there, either. Because a middle-aged man in his mid-forties was sitting in front of them.

The man was good looking. He was well presented with a suit and leather shoes on. With a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, he looked especially refined and approachable just sitting there.

Hong Dali watched as the middle-aged man sipped his coffee. He asked carefully, “Er... Uncle Lin, are you looking for me?”

The man’s surname is Lin!

“Uncle Lin” put down the coffee cup, sizing up Hong Dali. He nodded slightly and smiled as he said, “Dali, come to think of it, it’s the first time we met. En. Let me introduce myself formally. I’m Lin Jiayun, Lin Chuyin’s father.”

This refined middle-aged man was Lin Chuyin’s father!

Hearing that, Li Nianwei covered her mouth in shock.

Lin Chuyin’s father came to look for Hong Dali. That’s scary!

Hong Dali behaved cheekily even when he met Uncle Bureau Chief. But facing Lin Chuyin’s father Lin Jiayun, Hong Dali didn’t know what to say. “Er... That...” He pondered over it, and asked cautiously, “Uncle Lin, you’re here because of... Chuyin?”

Lin Jiayun nodded. “That’s right. I’m here today because of Chuyin.”

Hong Dali anxiously said, “Uncle Lin, wait a minute. Let me catch my breath! This information is too sudden. I don’t think I’ve gotten into any trouble so far when hanging out with Chuyin? We are just friends! Really! I swear to the light!”

Lin Jiayun smiled as he scolded. “Rascal. If you’re really a couple with my Chuyin, I would need to thank you!”

With the sudden information, Hong Dali could not react in time. “You mean...”

Lin Jiayun thought for a while and slowly said, “En, since I’m already here, let me lay everything on the table. There wouldn’t be any benefits if you don’t understand what I’m saying.”

I don’t understand what you’re saying at all!

Hong Dali was sweating all over. “En... Please continue. Please explain!” He carefully observed Lin Jiayun’s expression. “Is it a good thing, or a bad thing?”

Lin Jiayun shook his head. “A little of both I guess. I need to start from the beginning.”

That’s it. Hong Dali knew this must be a big matter just by hearing that!

Things that needed to be related from the beginning were usually not good. Now, this Uncle Lin said he needed to tell him something from the beginning. Forget it. As respect for the elderly, he could only listen...

Lin Jiayun started his story. “En, that was nineteen years ago...”

Hong Dali whispered, “Uncle Lin, nineteen years ago, Chuyin was not... not... not even formed yet?!”

He tried to hold back. And only managed to blurt out that sentence. Li Nianwei couldn’t bear any longer and laughed out loud.

Lin Jiayun gave Hong Dali a dirty stare. “I suppose so. Rascal, let me finish what I’m saying!”

Hong Dali nodded. “Okay, okay. Please continue.”

Lin Jiayun slowly said, “Nineteen years ago, the Lin Family had some assets. At that time, there was a lot of focus on the education of children and their inborn talent. I was no different. I thought of all the ways to have a smart kid, one with high IQ.”

That was easy to understand. All parents wished for their children to excel.

Lin Jiayun continued slowly. “And then, we started researching painstakingly. En, that would be known as genetic engineering.”

Hong Dali was shocked. “That can’t be?! Genetic engineering nineteen years ago?!”

Lin Jiayun shook his head and helplessly said, “Actually, not really. Another way of putting it was the evolutionary rule, the survival of the fittest.”

Hong Dali curiously said, “That I know. But what has this got to do with Chuyin? Don’t tell me...” Hong Dali’s next sentence made Lin Jiayun spit his coffee out. “Chuyin is not your daughter?”

Lin Jiayun scorned. “What are you thinking, little rascal? Of course, Chuyin is my daughter. Flesh and blood! Why else would I be talking to you here now?!”

Hong Dali was perplexed. “This evolution rule that you spoke about... what about it then?”

What could produce a genius with an IQ of 180? I’ll give it a try next time...

“Because of this, I have been suffering for a lifetime.” Lin Jiayun took a deep breath and said, “This evolution rule is to select the best offspring gene combination of a man and a woman. Thus producing an extraordinary genius baby with that condition.

“You must understand that the reproductive genes produced by men and women are qualitatively different, neither always good, nor always bad.” Lin Jiayun said slowly, “Some people’s firstborn are stupid, secondborn are clever. Some people’s firstborn are very clever, but the secondborn are very stupid. Some scholars believe that this is the difference in nutrition during pregnancy, and more importantly, the congenital quality gap of reproductive genes.

“In order to give birth to an outstanding child,” Lin Jiayun took a breath. “My wife took a three-year sample of eggs and finally chose the most perfect sample. Then I had to maintain my best form every day for the three years, adhering to the best nutrition preparation program, and finally selecting the most active breeding genes. Using vitro fertilization, and placed back in my wife’s womb, to produce Chuyin.”

Damn...

Hong Dali was sweating profusely as he listened—That works too?!

Li Nianwei had her mouth slightly agape. She had never thought that Chunyin was made in this manner!

Hearing what Lin Jiayun said, Hong Dali wondered if Lin Chuyin should be a normal person or a man-made person? If he called her a normal person, she was outrageously strong, but without emotions. If he called her a man-made person, she was a normal human being after all.

Lin Jiayun despondently said, “I regret it now. You can see the results—Chuyin is very intelligent and has a congenital fanatic gene for the machinery. But unfortunately, she’s a blank sheet of paper when it comes to relationships. God gave her the highest IQ but took her feelings.”

Well, this sounded extremely shocking, but thinking about it, it was highly possible. Good or bad, sincerity was not something that could be differentiated as easily as one and two.

Hong Dali curiously asked, “And... by telling me all these, you mean...”

Lin Jiayun looked at Hong Dali and gradually said, “I’m here today for this matter. Chuyin is a very special child and is very defensive against everyone. Except you.”

Then, Lin Jiayun finally revealed his intention for today’s visit.

Lin Jiayun said, “I hope that you can use whatever ways you can think of to make Chuyin fall in love with you. I don’t have any terms. My only request is for you to impregnate Chuyin, so we can have a descendant to carry on the Lin Family’s line.
