Chapter 730 (2/2)
Tang Xiu sighed and said quietly, “Professor Mo, the research is your responsibility, and I do hope you can achieve great results from it. But, we don’t have the ability to suppress all human beings, so we can only secretly use the results on our own people. Whether they would have their lifespan increased and can live for a few more years, it will all depend on you.”
Our own people? Including myself?
Mo Yi’s eyes lit up. He nodded solemnly and said, “Rest assured, Boss. I’ll do my best.”
Tang Xiu patted his shoulder. He then looked at Shanjenna and said with a faint smile, “Stay here for some more time and work with Professor Mo well. I’ll gift you something great whenever he achieves a new result. Even though you cannot achieve the Prince rank, achieving the rank of Count or Marquis is not bad, no?”
“I’ll definitely cooperate with you,” said Shanjenna excitedly.
Tang Xiu nodded in satisfaction. He suddenly looked at Han Jintong and said, “As a matter of fact, you will probably obtain another cultivation technique from your granddaughter in the future given her ability even if I don’t give you one now. However, considering your current age as well as the cultivation condition on Earth, it would be difficult for you to have any great achievements even if you spend a lot of time and energy during your short remaining years. I actually feel that you should just let it go of your mind and enjoy your old age.”
There was a bitter expression on Han Jintong’s face as he replied, “Even if I can’t have good achievements, it’s still better than staying idly all the time! Besides, my lifespan will still increase if I can only progress by one level. To live longer is always a good thing.”
“I understand.” Tang Xiu nodded.
Following that, he left the building to say goodbye to Lulu. Just after he left Paradise Manor for a while, there was a call from Han Qingwu asking him to wait outside for a few minutes. Han Qingwu then came with her car to catch up.
“Is there something?” Sitting on the driver seat, Tang Xiu opened the passenger’s window and asked.
Han Qingwu did not get off the car and hesitated, and then asked, “Will you go to the campus and attend classes tomorrow?”
“I should be there if nothing unexpected happens,” answered Tang Xiu. “But why didn’t you spend more time in Changxi?”
“Yu Hong has to work,” said Han Qingwu with a smile. “Alright, I just wanna ask you about that and there’s nothing else. Anyways, I’m going first.”
“Alright!”
Tang Xiu closed the window and could not help but shake his head. A woman’s heart is indeed like a deep ocean—unpredictable. If she just wants to ask me whether I’m going to the campus tomorrow, she just needs to ask by phone, right? Why bother waiting for a few minutes and waste time?
The next two days passed by without any big events.
Tang Xiu did not bother thinking about the issue with Xie Zhiqiang and the SOE over the past two days, nor did he ask Mo Yi about his research. Instead, he just attended classes, hung around in the cafeteria, visited the library, and then returned to Bluestar Villa.
Early in the morning.
The first wisp of sunlight shone through the curtains and illuminated the bedroom. Tang Xiu was awakened by the pleasant ringtone of his mobile phone. After connecting it and chatting with Kang Xia for a while, he learned that she would personally come to Shanghai three days later to host the construction project’s tender bidding. The tender was imminent, while the various procedures for purchasing the plot had also been completed along with the approved documents. They would only need to finalize the construction company who would carry out the project to start it.
For the blueprint design, it was Tang Xiu who had personally drawn it, but he only made the outline and sketch of the overall framework, while he left out the details on the distribution of the construction, the specific usage, the segmentation of the buildings, and the type of housing and its specification. Finding the construction company to carry out the project would naturally require them to make adjustments and changes according to the blueprint he drew.
Tang Xiu himself was a master painter and architect, and he had memorized countless buildings in the Immortal World as references. However, he had yet to grasp the essence of modern architectural design in regards to constructing the HQ and industrial park of the Magnificent Tang Corporation.
Knock, knock…
His door was knocked and Zhang Xinlan’s voice was heard from the outside, “Mr. Tang, there’s a guest waiting for you in the living room downstairs.”
Tang Xiu opened the door. As he looked at Zhang Xinlan, he asked, “Who is looking for me?”
“Your big sister, Miss Chen,” said Zhang Xinlan with a smile.
Chen Xiaowan?
Tang Xiu’s expression moved and immediately came out of the room.
