Next day Vick wake up after seven, he didn't get proper sleep because of the dream.


After breakfast, Vick asked Anna, John, and Nick to meet at the living room.

Anna:...

Nick: Yes Young Master, let us hear, 'what you want wanted to say?'


Vick: First of all, you are all not allowed to call me as 'Young Master' from today onwards. You all must call me as 'Vick'. Second, Never interfere with things that are happening inside the school. You can follow me outside the school, and you must main some distance from me. 


John: Young Master, how can we call your name? It's against the family employee rule.


Vick: You all are not under my family now. You are separated from home, you should follow my rule.


John: Yes Young Master.


Vick: John and Nick, I will call both of you by name. If someone asks about relation, Nick, you are my brother and John, you are my family relation. Both of you have any problem?


John and Nick: No young Master.


Vick: Anna, you are taking care of me from my birth, you are like a mother to me, so I will call you as 'Mom'.


Anna: Okay Young Master.


Vick: From tomorrow onwards, you must call me as 'Vick'. Anna, you may leave now.


After Anna left the room, Vick started to discuss his daily schedule.


Vick: I will be taking public transport, Bus No: 16 from the nearest bus stop to school bus stop. As for my schedule, working days Monday to Friday, morning 9.0 AM to 4.30PM, after school I may stay at school up to 6.00PM.

Vick: I need to save money from now on. Now, I have no relation with my family, so I won't use family name any family property. And remember, I am staying in this home and allowed you two to follow because of my parent only. City A is safer don't worry.

Vick: Nick you may leave now.


Nick: Okay young Master.


Vick: John, I know my father gave you another work, you can update things happening here to my father. But you are not allowed to accept any order from family. If I find out, you did anything without my knowledge here, then you are fired here. My father may give you a job, but under my command, you will never get a chance to work. Is it clear?



John: Yes Young Master (John clearly understand the threat in Vick's words).


Vick:  You may leave now, and evening I am going to Nila restaurant for dinner.


John: Yes young master. Evening we will be ready.


John bowed and left the room.


Afternoon, Vick search the internet for online jobs related to the computer program and website design. Most of the job requires experience and awards in that field to prove knowledge. With the current profile, Vick can accept simple administration related simple program developing and website designing. 


Vick checked the authenticity of the job and pay assurance before accepting. After checking the product, 100 percent payment, with copyright. The payment for the program developing and website design is not that bad.


For the accepted job all have a duration of one month, if any time delay, there will be a reduction in payment. Vick planned to complete this job in three weeks, three weekends i.e., six days to complete. 


After completing the work plan, Vick came out of study room in the evening six o clock. Vick called John and informed that they are leaving in five minutes.


Vick reached Nila restaurant by 7.00 PM. Vick seated near the counter so that he can see the staff room entrance. John and Nick were not happy with Vick decision, already John booked a private room, later it was canceled. Vick asked John and Nick to join dinner, Nick ordered food for all of them.


During dinner, Vick full concentration was fully in the staff room door. Seeing Vick concentration is not in food, Nick asked Vick, 'Vick any problem? You don't like the food?'


Vick replied 'No, No, food is good, I am just thinking'. Vick didn't see the beauty, so he was disappointed. Initially, Vick wanted to ask 'John to check about the girl', but later Vick decided to wait.


 Vick gave his card to John and asked him to pay the bill, Vick informed John to split the bill into three and pay separately. John and Nick surprised by Vick words later they understand their young master order.


Nick went to the restroom, Vick was alone in his table. Seeing the familiar waitress Vick asked where is another waitress who is working here?. The waitress didn't understand who he is asking.


After checking only Nila is missing, the waitress replied 'She is not coming today, tomorrow her school starting, so she is busy'.


Vick 'Thanked the waitress' and left the restaurant.

After reaching the villa, John called Arjun and informed about the Vick plan and new rules. Arjun okay with the rules and asked John to follow Vick's order.

Before ending the call Arjun warned him to be more careful with the environment.

Normally, the exams for public institutions and civil service were set up in primary schools and middle schools. For example, the exam hall that Dai Li had gone to was set up in the Ninth Middle School in Yuzhou City. And where there were primary and middle schools, where there are training and tutoring institutions, which offered classes for writing, math, and foreign-language. When it came to hobbies, painting classes, calligraphy classes, and all kinds of classes for musical instruments were also available. If a kid hadn't been enrolled in three or five classes at a time, he would feel embarrassed to even say "hi" to his classmates.
The poster that Dai Li had seen was for one of those tutoring institution named "Talent Education".
"'Talent Education. Looking for PE teacher urgently. Excellent pay and benefits.' I wonder if I have a chance. I still have to wait a month to receive my graduation certificate. Well, I have no other choices anyway. Maybe I should just give it a shot. It's also a good chance to see if the coaching system is real or not," Dai Li thought as he approached the gate of Talent Education.
…
"Excuse me, are you looking for a PE teacher?" Dai Li asked as he walked through the gate.
The person who came to welcome Dai Li was a middle-aged man in his forties. He was very pale, with a pair of golden wire-framed glasses. It made him look very knowledgeable.
"You came here to apply for the position? You look very young," said the man.
Dai Li smiled awkwardly and spread his arms. "I just graduated. My major is sports training, and I am here today because I came to take the public institution's recruitment exam. I happened to see your poster, and want to get some more information. Sorry I didn't expect this today, so I don't have my résumé. I do have my student card with me though."
Dai Li took out his student card and handed it over to the man. The man took a glance at it, then gave the student card back to Dai Li. He said, "My name is Jianguo Chen. This Talent Education was opened by me and my friend."
"It's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Chen," said Dai Li immediately.
"Just call me Professor Chen. I was a middle school math teacher," Jianguo Chen continued, "we are looking for a part-time PE teacher. It's mainly about giving sports training to middle school students in preparation for the high school PE entrance exam. You must know about it, right?"
Dai Li nodded. "I had to take the PE exam in my high school examination too. I remember PE made up 30 points of the exams."
"Now it's 60 points! Almost 8% of the entire high school entrance exam," said Jianguo Chen and postured an "eight" with his hand.
PE was always one of the mandatory items in high school entrance exams. The proportion PE took was different depending on the region. It ranged from a minimum of 30 points to a maximum of 80 points. And in the city where Dai Li lived, PE made up 60 points of the exam.
Jianguo Chen continued, "There are only two weeks left before the high school PE entrance exam. Our program opened a special training class for it, mainly targeting junior students in middle school who are going to take the exam. The PE teacher we originally hired is no longer available due to some unexpected emergency. We really need a PE teacher to replace him as soon as possible. Because you were a sports training major, I think it will be no problem for you to train middle school students. Am I right?"
"No problem at all," Dai Li nodded.
"Because all our trainees are full-time students who have to go to school during the day, the training cannot conflict with their normal class time. Usually we go from 17:30 to 19:30 on weekdays. It will be two hours. On Saturdays and Sundays, it will be an entire day of training. Since the exam is around the corner, we only have about two weeks."
Jianguo Chen stopped for a second, then continued, "As for the salary, we can offer you 300 yuan a week during the trial period. On top of that, for every student you coach who completes their training program, you will get 500 yuan as commission. If you are okay with it, I can offer you the trial contract right now."
"Now?" Dai Li had never imagined that the whole thing would have gone so well. The man had only checked his student card and offered him the job.
"Yes. Today is Saturday and tomorrow is Sunday. We are going to begin our class tomorrow. According to the plan, it will be a full day of training. I hope you can be here and start working tomorrow," Jianguo Chen said eagerly.
"I have no problem coming here to start the work tomorrow. It's just…" Dai Li said hesitantly.
"Perfect. I'll go get the trial contract." Jianguo Chen ran into the office behind him.
…
Dai Li walked out of Talent Education, still baffled by what had just happened. Everything had gone so well that he couldn't believe it.
"It said on the internet that job hunting was very hard for college graduates. Why was it so easy for me to get the offer today? He only took a look at my student card and hired me. Was it some kind of trap? I've checked the contract many times and everything including the salary, bonus, and working time are all listed clearly. They didn't even ask for a deposit, nor charge me for the uniform."
Dai Li thought carefully and remembered that he had seen some news on the internet about employment fraud. Most of them would offer a trial period in the beginning and then ask for a deposit for all kinds of reasons, such as the uniform, training fee, and so on.
"Well, I'll bring 20 yuan with me for lunch and leave all my bank cards at home. They'll never get a penny from a poor student like me!" he thought.
Dai Li came to Talent Education the next early morning. Jianguo Chen drove him to the City Youth Activity Center personally.
There was a specialized space for activity in the City Youth Activity Center. The center had athletics tracks, an equipment room, basketball court, football pitch, tennis court, badminton court, and ping-pong hall - everything you could imagine. They even had a swimming pool. All these fields were only open to public when they held competitions. Usually they were lent to the after-class tutoring centers. For example, the eight basketball courts were lent to four tutoring institutions that specialized in basketball training.
Talent Education wanted to do high school PE entrance exam training, so they had rented a field in the Youth Activity Center which included a jumping pit, calisthenics bars, and an athletics track. However, they had to share the athletics track with other tutoring institutions. This field would be the place Dai Li would work for the next two weeks.
…
"The Youth Activity Center is an official government-managed activity center. The training schools that rent space here should be registered in the Bureau of Education. They shouldn't be frauds," Dai Li thought as he followed Jianguo Chen to the place Talent Education was renting.
Jianguo Chen pointed at a row of horizontal bars and said, "Besides this fixed equipment, we will rent a box of equipment including dumbbells and stands for push-ups from the Youth Activity Center. They will send it here later. There are numbers attached to that equipment. Be careful not to misplace any of them, otherwise we have to pay for it."
Dai Li nodded to show that he understood. Jianguo Chen looked at his watch and said, "It's almost time. The students are coming. We'd better welcome the parents who are sending their children here!"
…
Twelve students stood in front of Dai Li. All of them were boys, and they all shared the same characteristic—they were all overweighted!
According to the "Physical Health Standard for Students" established by the nation, if a senior middle school boy's height was 165 centimeters and he weighed less than 46 kilograms, he suffered from malnutrition; between 46 kilograms and 56 kilograms, he was considered thin; between 56 kilograms and 58.5 kilograms, he was average; if he weighed more than 58.5 kilograms, he was considered overweight; and if more than 66 kilograms, he was obese.
The 12 people in front of him were obviously in the obese category. One was bigger than the other! After examining all of them, Li determined that the "skinniest" one was still obese. One or two of them might have even been more than 90 kilograms.
"A bunch of fat potatoes!" Dai Li thought to himself as he sighed. Though after considering it, Dai Li realized they wouldn't be here in the high school PE entrance exam training class if they did not have weight issues.
"I should check their sports abilities! Alright! 24, 27, 22, 25…is no one over 30? What the hell is 19? He might be even weaker than the dog of that old lady yesterday!" Dai Li thought, quite upsetly.
"Don't look down upon the old lady from yesterday who was walking the dog," said the system. "Nowadays, old ladies practice square dancing one to two hours every day. They are much stronger than these chubbies!"
"You are right. But there is nothing I can do about it. I have to take it easy. According to the contract, I can get 500 yuan commission per student. Which means I can get 6,000 yuan if I can manage to train them until the end! 6,000 yuan in two weeks! How lucky I am!"
The more Dai Li thought about it, the more he found it unbelievable. His morale was high thinking about that 6,000 yuan. He took the list of names and went in front of them. He cleared his throat and said, "Hello students. We will now begin roll call! Xiaoming Huang."
"Present!"
"Congcong Wu."
"Present!"


How could a poor graduate student without any background or connections become successful? With a coaching system? An upgrade? This is not a computer game, but real life we’re talking about!
 
This will be a fantasy based on reality. Dai Li will fight back against all those who would mock and humiliate him with his astonishing and awe-inspiring training skills. From a nobody he’ll try to become the most illustrious coach in the sports world, so join him in proving to everyone who’s the real master here!

After snowing for nearly a day, the weather finally cleared up.
"Brother Store Manager! Brother Store Manager!"
With her unique voice and voice mutations, Little Celery excitedly ran into the store. She looked back and noticed the mat outside the door, went back outside to rub the mud off her soles, and ran into the shop again.
Mud was everywhere on the streets, and every passing vehicle was covered with mud spots. Probably the happiest people on this snowy day were the car wash shop owners. The situation on the sidewalk was not much better, with the young girls walking very slowly, frowning to avoid the running Little Celery, for fear of the mud from her shoes splashing on their clothes.
"What's wrong, Little Celery?" Zhang Zian asked unhurriedly.
"Well..." She noticed that Zhang Zian was strenuously lifting a strange statue. "Wow, what is this?"
"This is a statue of the Cat Goddess." Zhang Zian took a few steps back and bent down to push the statue, made of bronze, cautiously to the doorway into his recently refurbished shop, and was relieved. "It’s really heavy."
Since Snowy had given him the statue of the Cat Goddess, Zhang Zian had thrown it around the corners of the store for months and didn’t remember its very existence until the store was tidied up this morning.
No matter what, it was an exquisite piece of art. Most importantly, this was a gift bought by Snowy, and he couldn’t just throw it away. Considering that selling it may not bring him much money, he decided to utilize it properly. 
After much contemplation, he thought it was more appropriate to put it in front of the store, facing outside like a gatekeeper.
At the entrances to other people's stores, a bronze bull was placed there so as to bring booming business, but strangely enough, Zhang Zian decided to place a bronze cat there instead. However, in the eyes of experts who were knowledgeable about the cat goddess, the origin of the cat statue was way more impressive than any ordinary bronze bull. 
Besides, it made more sense to place a bronze cat rather than a bronze bull in front of a pet shop, didn’t it?
Little Celery crouched down, curiously looking at this vivid statue, and then raised her face and asked Zhang Zian, "Brother Store Manager, where is the Cat Goddess from?"
"It is an Egyptian cat goddess. Have you heard of it?"
"No," she shook her head. Her two pigtails were pointing in the directions of 10 and 3 o'clock, indicating that it was Tuesday today.
"Anyway, you just need to know that it is very powerful, and as domineering as me!" Zhang Zian did not intend to explain this to her in detail — after all, things like faith and worship were too difficult for her to understand at this age. 
"What?" Little Celery said with a look of admiration, "Brother Store Manager, you are amazing! You can even bring an Egyptian cat goddess to your shop!"
"No, it’s just a statue!" Zhang Zian felt awkward. "Little Celery, why didn’t you come over yesterday? Because it’s difficult to walk on a snowy day?"
"Uh-huh!" she nodded. "Yesterday morning, our teacher said in the group chat that school was closed, so we didn’t need to go, and she asked us to inform each other."
"Tut, children nowadays are so lucky. When I was in school, even when the sky was raining knives, we still needed to go to school..." Zhang Zian angrily said. "Gosh, I’m so old now!"
"Brother Store Manager is still very young!" Little Celery said very seriously. "Younger than my mother!"
"Haha, of course! Your Brother Store Manager will be 18 years old forever!" Zhang Zian laughed, "Little Celery, why are you here today?"
"Ah! I almost forgot! Brother Store Manager, I’m here to tell you some good news!" said Little Celery. "The teacher has agreed that my program will represent our class in the performance in front of the whole school!"
"Oh? Nice!" Although he had expected this was the good news, Zhang Zian pretended to be surprised and smiled happily, "Is this the show about the fairy tale pet shop?"
"Yes, but the show name has changed to ‘Magical Pet Shop’ because our teacher said this name is more attractive," Little Celery made lively gestures while she spoke. "Yi Le acted very strange. He suddenly approached me before the vote, and said that he wouldn’t fight against me anymore, and with several other boys, they raised their hands to support me in the voting... Brother Store Manager, do you know what happened?"
"No." Zhang Zian shook his head, "Presumably, he probably felt that your program was more interesting. Let me tell you, boys this age change very quickly. They might like one thing today, and change their minds tomorrow..."
"Is that so?" she winked.
"That's right! Little Celery, don’t mind them, just rehearse your show."
Little Celery nodded, "Well, I will work hard!"
"But do not let the rehearsals affect your learning," Zhang Zian reminded her. "Learning should always be your priority."
For children this age, maybe playing was the most important thing, but taking into account the national conditions of China, Little Celery couldn’t be left behind at the starting line.
"I know! Brother Store Manager, I’m going to play with Xiao Ling and Er Duo!" Little Celery ran a few steps, stopped, and asked him, "Brother Store Manager... are you usually very busy?"
Zhang Zian shrugged and asked, "Look at me, do you think I look like a busy person?"
"No, you look like you have much spare time," Little Celery responded honestly.
Although this was the truth, Zhang Zian was still very sad!
"Why do you ask?" he said.
"Well..." Little Celery was a bit shy, "The school-founding celebration, would you like to come and see it?"
"Celebration..." Zhang Zian thought for a moment, "I would love to see Little Celery perform, but… is it true that only parents are allowed in the school?"
"You can go in on the celebration day!" She looked at him expectantly.
"Well, no problem then! I will not miss your show," Zhang Zian laughed.
With Lu Yiyun helping him, he could leave the shop for half a day. 
Just at that moment, Lu Yiyun arrived.
"Good morning, Mr. Store Manager." Lu Yiyun greeted him, and noticed the statue of the Cat Goddess squatting proudly near the cashier’s desk, "Um? What is this..."
"A statue of the Cat Goddess." Zhang Zian felt a bit of a headache. What if everyone that came in the shop asks the same question? Should I write a note next to it?
"Oh." Lu Yiyun stopped asking. She intended to search about it online later.
She dropped her drawing board from her shoulders and connected it to the computer as she did yesterday.
"Mr. Store Manager, about updating the WeChat public account..."
"What about it?"
When it came to the public account, Zhang Zian's headache worsened. Although he had opened a public account, he really didn’t know what to publish on it. Yesterday he had intended to discuss it with Lu Yiyun, but was interrupted by Adams's sudden visit.
She said swiftly, "How about I draw a few Abyssinian cats?"
"Ah?" Zhang Zian was startled, "Go on."
Encouraged by him, she said bravely, "After going home last night, I thought that since few people in China know about the Abyssinian cat, I intend to draw the cats and tell everyone that this shop will introduce this rare cat breed in a few days. What do you think?"
"Well... this is a good idea!" Zhang Zian thought for a moment when she touched her chin.
The eight Abyssinian cats were purebred and in excellent condition. Any one of them was good enough to serve as a breeding cat, except that they were all the chocolate color unrecognized by the CFA. 
He did not intend to sell them, but it was always good to promote them, and Cathy would have liked to make her cats known to more people.
"Just do it," he decided.
"But I do not know what they are like..." Lu Yiyun spoke haltingly.
Yesterday after Adams left, Lu Yiyun asked Zhang Zian about his trip to America curiously, and he told her everything that had happened at the CFA competition without reservation. After she went back to her rental house that night, she tossed and turned restlessly in bed. She was impressed and touched by Adams's professionalism, Cathy's persistence, and Zhang Zian's sadness, and she suddenly had a very strong desire to share what she had heard with others in the form of pictures.
In the middle of the night, she walked out of bed, turned on the computer, picked up the digitizer tablet, and tried to draw the things in her heart.
However, she soon encountered obstacles that prevented her from drawing. She didn’t know what the cat named Wendy looked like. 
Lu Yiyun knew the appearances of Zhang Zian and Fina, and through the photo in the photo frame also got to know Cathy’s look, but she hadn’t encountered Wendy, who was playing such an important role.
However, due to her shyness, she did not intend to tell Zhang Zian about her thoughts at the time being. Instead, she wanted to draw the pictures privately. Therefore, she asked about Wendy’s look obscurely, with the pretense of updating the WeChat public account. 
"Oh, right, wait here." Zhang Zian made a trip upstairs and fetched the photos of the eight cats Adams left behind for her.
"Which is Wendy?" she asked.
"The most beautiful one," Zhang Zian pointed at it.
"Ah... it is really beautiful, like an elegant fairy!" Lu Yiyun stared intently at Wendy's photo, her fingers gently sliding along the curves of its body.
She looked up to see the statue of the Cat Goddess. It seemed that Wendy resembled this statue a lot, but Fina looked almost identical to the statue. 
"I will draw it as soon as possible and return the photos to you." She took over the pictures carefully.
Seeing that she liked the photos so much, Zhang Zian generously said, "You can keep them if you’d like — the cats will arrive in a few days anyway."
"Brother Store Manager..." Little Celery ran out and saw Lu Yiyun sitting behind the cashier desk. She asked in surprise, "Big Sister, who are you?"
Lu Yiyun was not afraid of children. She smiled and waved her hands, "Hello, I am the new cashier here, and my name is Lu Yiyun."
"Hello, Sister Yiyun!" said Little Celery. "Brother Store Manager, Sister Yiyun, I have to go to school now, bye!"
"Bye! Don’t run too fast on the road, and watch out for cars," Zhang Zian reminded her.
When Little Celery left, he thought of a serious problem. He forgot to ask on which day the celebration of her school was!

Yiming Consulting's meeting room.

Zhuge Wenbo handed a document to Zhang Guan, and then said, "The advertising contract of Daben Automobile is about to expire. I have contacted some car brands, but the prices given by the top big groups are not very satisfactory. The endorsement price issued by the KIA Automobile is quite good, 20 million a year, the advertising fee is not included. But KIA is not the top European and American car brand, and your last car advertisement is Mercedes-Benz. It's a bit big, so I have to ask about your idea."

"Why does KIA Automobile want to sign me? Isn't it Liu Feiren who has been getting these all the time?" Zhang Guan asked.

"KIA Auto's contract with Liu Feiren is almost expiring. It is said that a brand from GM in the United States is in contact with the field management center. Moreover, it seems that the signing of Liu Feiren by KIA Auto had already tasted the sweetness." Zhuge Wenbo said.

When the company entered the Chinese market, its sales were actually very poor. The people did not recognize the Korean brand. Later, the company spent money to sign Liu Feiren and let Liu Feiren endorse the model that Qianya just launched in China at the time. Maxiamium's sales in 2005 have increased substantially, reaching almost one-third of Shenji Jetta, and KIA Auto has gradually gained a foothold in the domestic market.

Zhang Guan remembered that KIA Automobile sponsored a commercial car for Liu Feiren. Zhang Guan sat in that car, and so far, Liu Feiren has not been willing to spend money to buy a new one.

"What is the specific model this time? Will it be a small car again?" Zhang Guan asked.

"The information is that the two cars that were newly launched last year, Cerato and Lion Run. These two cars are not yet listed in the country, but KIA revealed that if you agree to the endorsement, you will discuss with them and introduce these two cars into the country." Zhuge Wenbo went on to say, "In addition, I also proposed to KIA Auto a global advertising strategy, if possible, it is best to enter advertising into European and American countries."

"Lion running is okay, domestic SUVs are just emerging, but SUV models in the United States are still quite popular." Zhang Guan suddenly remembered one thing, "Do I have to get a driver's license?"

"This is easy. If you want to take the test, I will arrange it for you." Zhuge Wenbo said.

"Okay, okay, don't talk about it first." He Yiming interrupted the conversation between the two and then said, "Zhang Guan, but you made a lot of money this year, except for the personal income tax, the Shanghai Association and after deducting necessary expenses, there are more than 30 million remainings. Think about what to do next? "

"Surely continue to invest!" Zhang Guan said without hesitation.

"Oh, what are you investing in? The fund has been quite hot recently and is suitable for long-term investment. I have recently bought some and can introduce you to a few reliable fund managers." He Yiming continued.

"It's real estate!" Zhang Guan said.

"Real estate? That thing can be quite complicated. It is not easy to get everything approved for building a house for sale. Don't blame me for being honest. When 30 million is invested in real estate, there is a splash." He Yiming continued.

"He Ge, you misunderstood, I want to build a house, let alone I don't have that strength to do that. I wanted to buy the current house directly, it can be regarded as speculation!" Zhang Guan replied.

"Real estate? I wouldn't say that this is really profitable, at least it seems higher than the bank interest." Yiming said this but found Zhang Guan stared at him and immediately guessed Zhang Guan's meaning. So he went on to say, "Are you going to ask me to help you find a house again? Let's say, what kind of thing would you like, I'll contact someone to help you buy a house."

"The first-tier cities school district houses and they will not face the risk of demolition within ten years." Zhang Guan said directly.

"School district! Now the price is two or three times more expensive than ordinary houses, and it is also a first-tier city. You really can't buy a few sets with this money." He Yiming reminded me.

"It's okay, you can buy as much as you can!" Zhang Guan replied. As a person from the future, he knew how crazy the school district would be in the future. Especially after enrollment, the school district in the second experimental capital of Beijing the 30 square meters house was sold for ten thousand, the price of buying a house is enough for immigrants to go abroad to enjoy foreign school education.

Zhang Guan thought about it for a while, and then said, "In addition, I want to use some of the money for charity."

"Donating to charity? This is a good choice. Public figures should take on more social responsibilities and have a good reputation, which is also beneficial to your future development." Yiming continued and said, "I will help you contact the Red Club?"

Zhang Guan shook his head immediately. If he donates to the Red Cross, he might not know where his money would go. He continued, "I want to set up a charity fund to help some people who need help."

"Well, this running procedure will be a bit troublesome. There are many departments and many chapters. However, with your reputation and identity, there is no problem getting approval. If you want to do it, I support you. How much do you plan to invest first? To do public welfare in that respect?" He Yiming said.

"I have a preliminary plan. I want to start a free lunch plan. The main group is school-age children in poor areas." Zhang Guan then explained, "Although compulsory education has been implemented for so many years, there are many primary and secondary schools in poor areas. So lunch has also started to be free, but there are still many poor families who cannot afford to go to school. Many children start working outside when they are 12 or 13 years old to reduce the burden on poor families, and secondly, this is to encourage children from poor families to go to school."

"This idea is very good and necessary. I must support you." He Yiming said righteously.

Zhang Guan said, "I think the first step is to start from 20 schools in poverty-stricken areas and provide free lunches to students. For lunch, there should be dishes and soup, and it is best to have an egg or meat dish. I guess for a student in a school year, 500 yuan is enough. According to a school of 100,000 yuan, it is enough to take out 2 million in the early stage, and then gradually increase the investment. However, I may not have time to specifically implement this thing."

"You can recruit some volunteers in this regard, or directly spend some money to hire some local people." He Yiming wrote a few notes on the notebook and then said, "You don't have to worry about this matter, I specifically find a planner to get a detailed plan. After the Spring Festival, I will personally follow up on this matter, just wait for my good news."

...

Not long after the Spring Festival, He Yiming sent someone to send the relevant legal documents of the Charity Fund and the planning book of the free lunch plan.

The State has promulgated the "Regulations for the Management of Foundations", which requires that the original funds of non-publicly-funded foundations be no less than 2 million yuan, and must be the actual amount of funds received, and must have a standardized name, articles of association, organizational structure and full-time staff, also to have a fixed location and be able to independently bear civil liability, of course, you must also apply to the registration authority.

The application, draft articles of association, capital verification certificate, and location certificate are not difficult for He Yiming. The foundation is also named Champion Fund. The chairman is Zhang Guan and the deputy chairman is He Yiming. After the relevant legal texts and application documents are prepared, they are reported to the relevant departments. After waiting for the approval of the competent department, the champion foundation was established.

It takes a long time for the approval of a foundation. The average person would have to go through a lot of reviews, but Zhang Guan's use of his own money to set up a charity fund is a bit of a media trend, and many media immediately reported it. As soon as the offensive of public opinion came out, the foundation's approval work was quicker, and the relevant approvals came down within a few days.

On March 1, Zhang Guan held a press conference to announce the establishment of the Champions Foundation, and also announced the first plan of the Champions Fund, "Free Lunch". The dozens of sponsors behind Zhang Guan were not idle, and more or less put some blood on the spot, donated a sum of money to the champion fund, which is regarded as support for Zhang Guan.

However, those behind Zhang Guan are big companies. I don't know how much advertising publicity funds are spent every year. They spend some money to buy a good reputation. Large companies can count on this account and are willing to pay out the money.

The "free lunch" program is easy to say, but it is more complicated to implement. First, you need to select a sponsored school and communicate with the school and the local education department. The school itself is still very easy to communicate, but the local education department is going to be a lot of trouble. The so-called goose plucks hair. This fat meat can be taken out of the oil after a round of hands. This kind of purely charitable activity is organized by private equity organizations, but there is no penny for them, so not everyone is willing to do it.

...

A poor country.

In the new Education Bureau building, Pan Xiaoxian, the head of the Champion Fund's "Free Lunch" program, sat patiently waiting in the office, while the Director of Education in front of him was reading page by page of the "Free Lunch" plan.

The Secretary took it very seriously, at least on the surface. He put down the plan a few minutes later and said, "Mr. Pan, this plan is very detailed. You selected the four institutes in my county. Primary school and a middle school are located in five different townships. I have personally researched these five schools, and there are indeed many students from poor families who are studying. They can provide free lunches for poor students and solve certain difficulties for them, so that they can study with peace of mind, and become the pillars of society in the future, and reimburse the country. This is definitely a good thing, our education department is very supportive of this."

The next moment, the director's voice changed and then said, "However, our country's poor schools are not just these five, we are poor countries, and there are many schools that need help and need funding. If only these five schools, what should other schools do if they promote free lunch? Teachers and students in other schools will have ideas."

Pan Xiaoxian sounded a little bit wrong, and asked, "Director, what do you mean?"

"I think, your foundation can donate a sum of money to the education fund of our county, and then we will allocate according to the actual situation of each school to supplement the lack of education funds of each school so that teachers and students of other schools will also receive help, you can also carry out this free lunch plan." After the director finished, he lifted a box and took out a Chinese cigarette to light up for himself, waiting for Pan Xiaoxian's reply.

This is not my original work, I just wanted to continue this novel so I’m translating it on my own free time. Please Enjoy

Currently, I'm stressing more than before.

I have discovered where they have gone during break-time. It turned out that they're indeed hanging out upstairs, where the six-graders was located.

While stalking them secretly from behind, I found out that they're not merely hanging out at that place.

It turned out that they found someone to replace me.

I was too late. There's no chance for me to redeem myself. 

What's worst is that he's a senior, there's no way I could win against a senior. In terms of looks and personality, he's way higher than me too.

In the end, I decided to give up on them and tried to find other girls, this time I'll treat them properly.

The next day, I gathered enough courage to speak with other girls.

Unlike what I expected, they were avoiding me. Did I have a bad reputation among the girls?

I'm sure I'm not that bad. I mean, I did a proper act to not show my bad side to others.

Each girl that I approached averted their eyes and shows hesitation when they speak with me.

"Is there something wrong?"

"N-nothing is wrong. Sure, if you want you can eat with us."

Andy who's seeing Kervin trying to get comfy with another girl, meekly laughed.

Of course, they'll avoid you. It's doesn't matter how popular you are, most girls don't like to be approached by boys in the first place.

Young girls at this age prefer to spend time with, obviously, girls too. If suddenly a boy approached them, worse, a stranger, tried to ask you out, you would've felt uncomfortable too.

As I said before all of them except for Helna, they're Kervin's childhood friends, since kindergarten.

Friendship was built over the years, of course, the girls won't feel uncomfortable anymore. They knew you and talked to you before.

In this case, you suspiciously approached them and awkwardly ask to eat together. It was a fortune that they didn't look at you in disgust.

Now that he's trying hard to find victims again, I'll move to the next phase of breaking him down.

This time, I'll prevent him from talking to girls. I won't let a girl fall for his trick again.

Again, bribing will be involved in this phase. Why bribing? I have a lot of money to spare, why not?

Compared to coercing someone to do a job for me, it's much better to pay them.

This time, instead of finding seniors for help, it's much better to ask my fellow classmates. Of course, not the one from the elite class.

Not now though, with Yulia pestering me to read her notes for her, I can't excuse myself yet.

I'll let Kervin struggle on his own first. It'll take time for a girl to trust him.

Right now, it's better to relax and focus on studying.

With Yulia's studying speed, I'm starting to run out of things to teach her anymore.

I might have to start studying the subjects that I'm unfamiliar with. Civics, Literature, and Social Studies, they pose a problem to me as they're all theory-based.

"Again, you're thinking of something weren't you?"

Eh? Is it that obvious?

I was still reading the book for her, so Yulia shouldn't have known that my mind goes elsewhere.

"What are you thinking of?"

"N-nothing important."

...

...

...

The school ended quickly with nothing special happened other than me lounging at the class, reading books for Yulia every break-time.

If there's one that needs to be mention, I'm starting to notice that Sheila is staring at me a lot.

During break-time, she even stayed back to eat her food in class.

Vina, Sheila's best friend was always with her, which was the main reason why I noticed Sheila as she's the one that notifies me by waving her hand to me.

What's wrong with her?

Is she mad that I didn't help her clean last Monday?

She did say it herself that it was fake, so there's no need for me to help her clean.

Whatever... next Monday I'll help her then.

That's the only special happened today.

"Andy! Look at my drawing!"

As soon as I come back, Old Man shows me his drawing.

And guess what he drew...

Monalisa...

He even bought a brush and paint to draw Monalisa.

F*ck, I trained you to design character, not as an artist.

I immediately threw the painting away to the trash can.

"Monalisa will get copyrighted by someone. That character cannot exist in a game."

His drawing skills indeed have been improving for the last few days but sadly being able to draw is not enough.

The next step in improving character designing has nothing to do with being able to draw.

For the past few days, I've been working on StoryEngine and only finish a tenth of it.

Since I knew it'll take time to create the full version of StoryEngine, I only wrote the program for creating character nothing else for now.

"Today, you'll learn how to use a program called StoryEngine. This was made by me, try it yourself first."

Old Man started to occupy himself, fully concentrated on the program I made.

Soon, he made a complaint.

"The computer is a bit laggy..."

Of course, I wrote a program that requires at least 8 GB of RAM and 4 GHz processors.

This old computer only has 1 GB of RAM and a 2 GHz processor. The only reason it can still run was that I modified the program, reducing the CPU and Memory consumed when running the program.

"Bear with it... the computer is outdated so it's natural for it to get laggy."

"I see, do you want me to buy a better computer?"

"Do you know that someone sells a good computer around here?"

Balai is a small place, there are only one or two computer shops on this entire small island.

People here are not economically wealthy, to begin with, so there's no way the computer shops sells expensive computer, not even a laptop.

In the future probably will, but definitely there's none right now. If there is I would already go there and buy one myself.

"Not around here... I've ordered computers from Batam previously for my internet cafe. So, I do have a connection with computer sellers."

"Want me to try to call him?"

Nod.

Yes, please! I'm sick of this computer!

"I'll call him now."

Old Man went to fetch his phone.

Speaking of a phone, I think I should get one for Mervin and Dad. If something happened they could contact me or others for help.

Yes! This way, Father will not get worried if I returned late. He can always call me by using a phone.

The problem is at this time, Apple still hasn't released iPhone yet, meaning I'll be using Nokia, it's basically an old artifact to me.

Should I make one?

After thinking for a while, I dropped the thoughts of making my own modern phone.

It'll attract the attention of others if I used it on the public now as a touch screen phone wasn't introduced to the public yet.

More than that, there are no application stores at all. I don't have the time to create my own apps, I'm already busy as it is.

"He said he has many expensive computers, how expensive do you want?"

"Ask him if he has a computer 8 GHz processor and 16 GB memory."

The answer was obviously, "No", I'm toying with him.

"Are you kidding me? The highest specs I have are 2.4 GHz with 2 GB RAM, it's a laptop so it's convenient to move around with it."

Old Man turned up the volume to the max to let me hear him speak without himself relaying the message.

"Then do you sell computer parts?"

"Yeah, but what do you need it for? Don't tell me you want to build your own? And who is this?"

The man on the other side noticed the difference voice, he got worried thinking that it was a prank call.

"There's no need for you to know what I do with the part, I'll just buy it from you."

"I want the best computer parts you have. More importantly, I want you to include every part, each part I want five of them."

There will be no use if I buy tons of them so I'll just get five, using those I'll modify them at James' house and turned into a better computer on my own.

"So you want hard-disk, sound-card, graphic-card, etc?"

"Yes."

"How about a keyboard and mouse? You need them?"

"No, just the computer parts."

"Oi, Old Man, your friend better not trick me, I'm willing to come to Balai and give you the stuff, but be sure you prepare the money."

"Rest assured, there's no problem with money."

"I hope so. I'll be going now. My boss is calling, bye."

The call ended, Old Man put away the phone before he talked to me.

"Why would you want five of them? At most you'll only need two, for you and me."

"Oh, those parts will be used on other things, in my way. If I use them as it is the computer will still be laggy."

Old Man didn't know what I'm talking about but he didn't ask further, he just nodded and went back, immersing himself with StoryEngine.

While he was studying the options available in StoryEngine I went upstairs to change into my normal clothes and bring textbooks along with so that I could study.

Yulia seriously caught up with me already, I currently have nothing to teach her anymore so I need to start studying or else I'll be ashamed of myself.

I wanted to at least proficient in every subject of primary school.

"Andy, I've tried to figure out on my own but I can't seem to use it."

Old Man asked for help as he struggles, using the program that I made.

"How do you draw?"

I shook my head and show him how it's done, by taking away the mouse on his hand.

"You're not drawing as I said before many times... you're designing a character."

"In three-dimensional!"

I showed him the material to create a three-dimensional sphere.

From that point, I slowly turned the sphere into human's head. 

It was ugly because I'm not used to doing it with a mouse. More than that, I'm rushing it.

"Basically, that's how you design on this platform."

"The same thing as you did with your hand I want you to do it on the computer using a mouse."

While he's learning how to draw with a mouse, I'll find a way to create a drawing tablet as I need it myself too.

Drawing with a mouse is inconvenient. It's fine when I draw the character for Hero as it was pixel graphics, but if I want to draw a 3-D character, I definitely prefer to use a drawing tablet. 

There's barely any customer coming in and out in this store.

More importantly, people in this era don't go and record things, posting them on the internet, hoping that they go viral or something.

In the first place, the current Nokia don't have the capability of recording video.

So it'll be fine if I create a drawing tablet.

The problem is the material, again.

F*ck James still hasn't replied to my letter.

Technology and Science have come a long way. 

Finally, in the year 20XX people successfully created Immersive VR-MMORPG. A technology that takes you to another world, allowing an individual to experience a second-life.

Unfortunately, Andy Lee, who participated in creating the masterpiece technology, didn't get to enjoy it.

Before the technology was perfected, he died of a heart attack.

Being devastated by the fact he didn't get to fulfill his dream, he was given a second chance.

Miraculously, he traveled back to his primary school days.

This time, he won't slack. He will live his life to the fullest unlike before.

His mission in this life was obvious, that is to fast-forward the development of technology and science.

All of the efforts were only to achieve his dream, to play VR-MMORPG in his life.

Andrew was dumfounded. He just couldn't believe what he heard. He even felt  he wasn't worthy of her presence during his concerts, how much more if she would insist to let him accompany her in seeing the child? 

Dr. Jane Lopez was  an epitome of beauty and intelligence. She was one of the world's  few gifted individuals who were accelerated into multiple levels ahead than her actual age. Her presence in every gathering was better described as captivating rather than intimidating. Her smiles shone like a sun in a gloomy day, casting thousand happy spells into weary hearts. And one of those who were secretly mesmerized by her charm was Andrew. Only that she was too unreachable.  She could only live and exist in his dreams as desiring her was like wanting to reach out a shining star in the midst of a beautiful night. 

"Really, doc? " Andrew confirmed as he kept his stares into her beautiful eyes. 

"Yes,  Mr. Andrew. Is it possible? "

"S - sure. Here's Miss Allyza,  Chloe's mom. " He glanced and smiled at Allie as he introduced her to Dr. Jane. 

Allie stood up to acknowledge her presence as she understood that she was someone from a higher society as displayed in her outward attributes. 

"Miss Allyza,  please call me Jane. May I see your lovely daughter, please?"

Allie shivered as she heard her but she was still able to manage a smile. She heard very well when Andrew called her Dr. Lopez and also saw the awkwardness in his reactions as he talked to her.

"Sure,  doc. Where will I bring her so that you may see her? "

"No, no. I and Mr. Andrew will go to your house if it's okay with you. "
She grinned widely as she ran her eyes towards the two of them. 

"Okay,  doc. Just let me know. "She replied nervously as she couldn't imagine her stepping into their doorstep. 

Dr. Jane turned to Andrew. " Mr. Andrew,  can you please pick me up tomorrow at my office at around 5 in the afternoon?  It's in Beautiful Haven. "

"Got it,  doc. "

Beautiful Haven is a learning institution which used the School of Tomorrow curriculum. It was also one of the schools which offered an Individualized Education Program. The whole facility was designed physically, not as a school but as a beautiful home. Once one would be at the entrance,  a vast stretch of a kaliedoscopic garden would meet the eyes and to the eyes of the children, it was an enchanting playground. 

The School of Tomorrow  curriculum is an individual-instruction approach that allows each student to work on his own level of achievement, which may vary from subject to subject. 

Whereas,  the Individualized Education Program (IEP) is the basic component of special education programs for children with learning disorders and other types of disabilities.  It entails some scopes  which address a child's individualism and his/her unique ways of learning.

Having seen the contrast of the advanced paces of  gifted children  between  mentally - challenged individuals,  Dr. Jane one day felt a profound desire to help and guide these types of children to achieve a great leap of changes and improvement through a special education program which cater their needs. Thus,  the birth of Beautiful Haven under her directorship and advocacy.

While in the car as Andrew brought her home,  Allie wasn't able to hold her curiousity. 

"She's so beautiful. Is she a public figure? "

Andrew glanced at her as she was fumbling mindlessly on the petals of the flowers. 

"She is the daughter of Sir Angelo Lopez,  the world's top luxury yacht builder. She is always featured in different magazines due to her beauty and brilliance as the youngest Filipino who acquired her Ph.D at age 18. "

Allie instantly felt so awed by the information. 

" It's an honor indeed that you are well - recognized by her. "

"I don't know either why she's always present at my concert. "

"It could mean that she likes you. "

Flattered about the thought of it,  he became thrilled and sparks of excitement  glowed in his eyes. Yet,  while he got lost in his thoughts for a moment,   his eyes were unintentionally strayed at Allie that he was quickly reverted to his deeper purpose in establishing a relationship with her. 

"You're far more beautiful than her. Her wealth is the only thing which sets her at an advantage. "

"Don't flatter me, Mr. Andrew. " She mimicked Dr. Jane and with this, Andrew burst into laughter. 

All throughout the rest of their trip towards home,  he stole side glances at her and wondered if he would go ahead with this mission or be true to himself. She was not difficult to love at all. She certainly possess unique charms which were incomparable with others. Even with Dr. Jane herself. 

As soon as he pulled to a stop in front of Allie's house, Andrew saw again that perfect sillhoutte of the man he saw at the hospital's entrance few days ago. 

"Allie, someone is waiting for you. "
Andrew sometimes called her by her nickname and at times, he called her just as how Anne did. 

"She's Adrian, my daughter's father. "
She calmly replied,  her face devoid of any expression. 

"If it's not too much to ask, why was he not around at the hospital? And would it be alright for him to see you with me? "

Allie chuckled out loudly. " Certainly not, " but she quickly added, "but there is no reason for him to be angry,  right? "

"There is,  Allyza. " He said while fixing his gaze beyond the stirring wheel. 

"W-what do you mean? " She stammered. 

"I'm...I'm beginning to like you. "

Allie choked for a moment before she gathered her courage to ignore it. 

"Liking is not bad at all. I even like many people...like Dr. Jane,  like 
you..."

" I hope you will understand what  I mean. " 

He alighted himself quickly after this and strode towards her side of the door to open it. 

"Good night, Lyz. Thank you so much for the wonderful night of being with you. " He spoke rather loudly, loud enough to be heard.

"Good night,  Andrew. Thanks again for your thoughtfulness and for all the efforts you have for baby 
Chloe. "

___

Allie walked straight towards the door pretending not to see Ajie who was standing at the dark corner. As she turned on the knob,  Ajie's big hand stopped her. He looked down at her then lingered on the roses. 

"I hope  you won't faint on the day that you will learn that these are just paper roses. "

Allyza lifted up her eyes to Hayri, her fiance who stood beside her on the deck. He looked back at her with those tender eyes, filled with so much love and admiration for her.

Little did he know, that the woman he loved and adored so much for five years was the one he was long haunting down to kill to avenge for his father.

Chapter 37. University (?)

"Are you confident in passing your exams?"

Lu Fei asked his sister while they were eating dinner.

As the high school entrance examinations would begin in some months, he was getting worried about his sister's performance in them. 

"Yes, I'm confident of getting into a good high school. What about you brother?"

Lu Xiaomei asked, lifting up her small face and looking into the confused eyes of her brother. 

"What do you mean?"

"I mean the national college entrance examinations. Aren't you aiming for a good university?"

Lu Fei shook his head when he heard that question. He had no intention to attend a university whatsoever. 

"No, it would just be a waste of time."

For Lu Fei, even high school was a waste of time. If not for his mother's last wish, he would have already dropped out of high school. 

"How will it be a waste of time?"

Lu Fei frowned when he heard that. He looked at his sister and calmly explained. 

"First of all, attending university costs money and time. We can't afford it, and you know how bad my grades are, even if I went to do the college entrance examinations, no universities would accept me."

"I think there would be some who would accept you."

His sister was still acting stubborn. She was even pouting her mouth while looking at Lu Fei. 

"What's with you today?"

"I just want you to go to university. It's hard to find a job with just a high school diploma."

"I will earn money by playing games and doing part-time jobs."

His sister grumbled when she heard that, but she still continued to argue with him.

She was young, but her attitude was getting more and more stubborn. Lu Fei couldn't do anything about it as it was inherited from their parents. 

"You should focus on your high school entrance examinations. You want to enter the First high school, right?"

Lu Fei quickly changed the topic of discussion.

"How do you know that?"

Lu Xiaomei had never told her brother anything about the high school she wanted to enter. 

"I'm your big brother. You can't hide anything from me."

Actually, Lu Fei had accidentally heard her sister's call with her friend.

They were talking about their desired high schools, and that's how he had come to know that his sister wanted to enter the First high school.

"I want to enter it, but I already gave up on it."

"Why? If you studied hard, you could easily pass..."

"It's not that!!"

Lu Xiaomei raised her voice as she interrupted her brother. Then, she lowered her head slightly and let out a small voice. 

"I don't want to burden you more."

"What burden?"

"I'm not a child now. I know how hard it is for you to earn money, and the fees of the First high school are too much for us."

Beijing First high school was the most prominent high school in Beijing. Only geniuses and the children of wealthy people would study there.

It was tough to pass their entrance examinations. 
More than that, the fees of the First high school were not small. Lu Fei himself knew that he couldn't afford that much amount of money. 

But he couldn't say that in front of his sister.

"You don't have to worry about that."

A man shouldn't look weak in front of his family, and Lu Fei knew that well. 

"How can I not worry about it? I don't want to trouble you more. You are already working too much."

"I can work more."

"You obviously can't...!!"

Lu Xiaomei roared that and stood up from her seat. With tears in her eyes, she left the dinner table in the middle of the meal and locked herself in her room.

Sigh!

A sigh leaked out from Lu Fei's mouth.

'She's getting more mature and stubborn every day.'

Lu Fei thought as he looked at the leftover dinner left from his sister. His sister was not a kid anymore, but in Lu Fei's eyes, she would always be one.

He knew that she was just worried about him, but he couldn't let his desires come before her dreams.

"I have to work harder."

Lu Fei muttered that as he finished his dinner silently, but there was a fire burning in his eyes. 

* * * 

After getting back to his room, Lu Fei quickly opened the item transaction site and posted the images of Leverill's mace and other items to sell.

The mace was a rare grade item with a skill. Just that would make it a hot item on the item transaction site.

Lu Fei was estimating that it would sell for at least 10k USD, but that was not the end. He also had various armors and weapons of the Lizardmen he had killed in the hidden dungeon. 

Usually, in any VR game, the prices of lower-level items would decrease with time.

It was because lower-level players would gradually level up. Then, the value of lower-level items would naturally decrease too.

But it was not the case with Ark. 

Every day, hundreds of players would enter Ark. One could see players spawning every day in the starting points of Ark.

That's why the demand for items was always increasing.

It could even be said that both the demand and price were increasing. 

'I will at least receive 15k USD.'

Lu Fei thought in his head. 

Although the item transaction site would take 10% of the money, he would still be left with a considerable amount.

15k USD! 

It was not an amount Lu Fei had imagined to earn just by selling an item in a game.

Although it may look easy at a glance, Lu Fei had fought to the death to get that item, so he would never think that it's easy to earn money.

'Moreover, it's just a drop in the ocean.'

15k USD was a huge amount, but it was just a drop in the enormous amount of debt he had. He would have to work hard to fill the ocean and pay back his debt.

"I should start to save money for Xiaomei's high school."

Lu Fei muttered as he closed the item transaction site. Then, he opened up a community forum.

More specifically, it was the official forum of Ark, Ark life forum, or ALF community for short. One could find various types of information about Ark here. 

Lu Fei had entered the forum to search for information about Karios.

He quickly typed the words Karios, but there was nothing. He then began to search with other keywords like 'Healer who conquered death' or 'The entity Karios.'

But in the end, only a sigh could leak from his mouth.

'Maybe, I can ask about it in a post.'

Lu Fei was about to make a post about it, to ask for any information about Karios from the players, but he stopped his hand.

"I should do it anonymously."

It was dangerous to do it from his main account. So, Lu Fei quickly made an anonymous account and began to type the post.

* * *

<Hearing strange voices in Ark>

Today, when I was in a battle, I suddenly started hearing a strange voice in my head.

The voice was of Karios, the healer who conquered death. He told me to look for him and release him, but before I could ask anything more, his voice disappeared.

After that, a quest opened in front of me.

Here's a picture of what the quest is about.

<Picture attachment>

If anyone has information about Karios or any clue about the healer who conquered death, please let me know.

* * *

Lu Fei checked the post two times before posting it. It would take some time for the post to get some hits and become popular. 

'I should go sleep.'

Lu Fei couldn't stare at his old computer for hours. That's why he closed it.

He then looked at the time. It was just 10:23 P.M., but he was already feeling sleepy. It was because of the fight with Leverill. 

Giving your body rest was also an essential thing to keep playing VR games. That's why Lu Fei went to sleep without wasting any time.

He didn't know that his post would come on TV at that time.

-Welcome to GBC's new program, 'Forum talks.' I'm your host Guan Zhou and accompanying me is the face of GBC, Ms. Ling Yan.

-Hello everyone, I'm your favorite host, Ling Yan. 

-Ms. Ling, I thought I was the favorite host.

-You sure know how to joke.

Two broadcasters were talking with each other in the program called Forum talks.

It was a new program that appeared on the GBC public network, which was one of the television stations which focused on VR games or, more specifically, Ark.

In this program, both the broadcasters will talk about interesting posts in the ALF community.

It was a program with a new concept, and it was still in the testing phase, but the viewers' response was good till now.

The show's concept was simple. 

Both the broadcasters would talk about the latest post on the ALF community, which had gotten popular or had some buzz around them.

The main focus of the show was that, but the two broadcasters were the backbone of the show. 

They were reasonably popular broadcasters, especially Ling Yan.

-Just last week, the Silver wolf guild made a post saying that they had conquered the Simon castle located in the Torn kingdom. 

-They are one of the top guilds in the Torn kingdom, and I heard that their guild leader has even received the title of Viscount by the king.

-It's really rare to meet the king of a kingdom.

-Yes, it's really rare to meet the king, but the more extraordinary thing is to meet the emperor.

-By emperor here, you must be talking about the emperor of the Althiem empire. 

-Yes, recently, there's a rumor going around the ALF community that the bow princess, Rachel is in the empire. 

-It's a reasonably new rumor, and it's getting a good amount of popularity, mainly because Rachel is known for not leaving any traces. 

Like that, both the broadcasters talked about some more posts in the ALF community or some rumors going around in the forum. 

After that, they started their new segment called 'Ridiculous posts.'

It was a segment in which they would talk about some ridiculous posts in the ALF community, which made no sense.

These posts are mostly posted by attention seekers, and the audience really loved this part of the whole show. 

-So, let's start with our first ridiculous post, which is called 'Hearing voices in Ark.'

It was Lu Fei's post, which the broadcaster Guan Zhou picked first.

He then proceeded to read out the whole post, and Ling Xiao laughed when he ended.

-It's pretty evident that it's just for attention-seeking. Who's the poster? 

-It's an anonymous post.

-Ohh! Maybe, the poster was scared that he would get roasted by the people.

The male broadcaster Guan Zhou shook his head and laughed while saying. 

-People are already roasting this post.

Guan Zhou then proceeded to read the comments on the post. He didn't read all the comments but only the most hilarious ones.

-The user 'Avatar head' says that the poster would surely be on steroids while writing the post.

-Another user called 'Little loli' says that if the poster can hear voices in his head, then she could change into a spirit. 

-Another user Ronii shows his concern and advised the poster to look for a mental hospital. He even wrote down the address of a psychiatric hospital. 

Both the broadcasters laughed at that and continued to read more comments. 

It was not like that. No one believed his post, but countless people were trying to seek attention in the ALF community.

It was hard to distinguish between an attention seeker and a person who was telling the truth. 

Although Lu Fei had posted the picture as proof, it was just not enough for the majority of the people to believe him. 

Most people would just think that it's a fake photo, and no one had time to clarify it.

-Let's look at the other ridiculous posts now.

Like that, the two broadcasters continued to read out more posts, and the show continued. 

At that point, Lu Fei was still oblivious to all of the situation. Yet, when he would come to know of this, he would inevitably spew out some curses at the broadcasters.

Lu Fei, a debt ridden orphan who struggles through his daily life. His only wish is to provide a good life to his sister.

With the threats of the loan sharks knocking on his door, he sets out to try his luck in the VR game called 'Ark'.

With a dark past as a returner and Ian has his alias, he fights in Ark for a better future for his sister.

Will he be able to reach the top?

What will happen when he suddenly got a mysterious class and he can hear the voices of spirits?

The doors and windows to the bedroom were closed tight. The black laced curtains from the French windows were not let down. Only the thin lace curtains meant to block out sunlight was drawn, keeping part of the brightness out of the room.
He Zhichu looked at his phone and downed his red wine.
Setting his wine glass down, he keyed in commands in his phone.
He will not delete the program that invaded his phone. He will only tweak it slightly, letting it send what the person wanted to receive in the first place – only it was fake.
Who said that he had to let the person eavesdropping hear the real things?
They had the guts to eavesdrop, but don't have the brains to differentiate if the information were true or false?
A mocking smile crept up He Zhichu's lips as he edited the program in no time.
He spent some time fighting within himself to not check on the source of the program.
He did not have suitable equipment, so he wasn't sure if the other party would know that he knew that his phone was invaded.
He decided to feign ignorance.
After He Zhichu was done editing, he came up with a set of data and saved them, sending them to the other party in a timely manner, so that they could hear his 'daily happenings'. Of course, those were all fake.
He was already in a bad mood, but it became better after finding this new entertainment.
Checking through the edited program and making sure that it was all good, he kept his phone and headed to the bathroom to wash up.
He looked himself in the mirror as he was brushing his teeth, and saw an utterly emotionless face.
Was it due to her not being by his side, or was it because her heart and body will never belong to him anymore?
He couldn't even tell which option hurt more.
But from the program they sent to his phone, it seemed like they've detected something.
He Zhichu pursed his lips, and cleaned his hands on a white towel. It should be time now, he thought.
What would he do if Gu Nianzhi never remembered what happened that time?
He had to own up himself…
…
"Mr. Huo, professor He's daily activities were normal." Zhao Liangze had been reporting He Zhichu's daily activities to Huo Shaoheng for the past few days. "He's currently in Boston, Harvard University. Seems like the Law faculty had something that needed him to settle, but surprisingly, his assistant Wen Shouyi isn't in Harvard anymore."
Huo Shaoheng tapped his fingers on the desk and asked in a low voice: "Where did she go to, then? Did you manage to find her?"
"Our men are currently searching for her in South America." He hesitated before continuing: "But it's complicated there, the government behaved like puppets, not caring about anything. The people who were governing were the gangsters; they controlled the cities and even the villages."
In those countries in South America, the power and credibility government officials have were not even close to the millionaires or area gangsters. Actually, it was slightly rude to have called them gangsters, as it was not even clear as to who were the good and who were the bad.
If there were no good people in the first place, how could you say that they were gangsters?
"Yes, continue to follow up, never in any situation should you give up." Huo Shaoheng said firmly. "Even if you have to look under South America, find her."
…
After General Ji passed Huo Shaoheng's words to the Army's Supreme Council, they held a special meeting to discuss the suggestion. After an intense discussion, they felt that his suggestion was doable.
Therefore, they came to a consensus quickly and allowed total autonomy to the head of the Special Forces when it comes to decisions within the department. Since Huo Shaoheng is the head of the Special Forces now, he will have total autonomy.
The autonomy will be revoked once he isn't the head of the Special Forces anymore.
And the Army's Supreme Council had the power to appoint the position of the Head of Special Forces.
They wouldn't have to be worried that that the Special Forces would be an independent department that couldn't be controlled by anyone then.
Regarding promoting Huo Shaoheng to the position the Vice Secretary of the Army's Supreme Council had taken effect almost immediately. He was also the head of the Special Forces at the same time, but the Army's Supreme Council decided to remain silent on this.
They did not disagree, nor did they agree.
Let people think what they want. This organization shouldn't be made known to the public anyway, it was just that they added another official position to Huo Shaoheng, and this position allowed him to be able to face the public.
However, he still chose to remain low profile. He rejected appearing on televesion shows, magazines, newspapers and online.
Regarding his appointment, it just took up a tiny space the size of a tofu in the Army's Internal Reference.
…
Deputy Chief of Staff Xu had been feeling moody ever since he was put under house arrest. He liked reading through his newspapers word by word when he had nothing to do, and there were times he even reads his newspapers twice.
This day, he saw that Huo Shaoheng had been promoted. However, no matter how he looked through the papers, there were no news about him related to the Special Forces in any way.
Deputy chief of staff Xu went pale.
This Huo Shaoheng is indeed capable…
The only person Mrs. Xu was worried about while under house arrest was Xu Piaohong.
"Xu, do you think we're able to visit out daughter? We have no idea how she is being locked up in the station. We've treated her like a princess since she was born; now she has to go through with such treatment, I'm worried that she might not be able to take it…" Mrs. Xu began crying, wanting Deputy Chief of staff Xu to think of a way to allow them to pay Xu Piaohong a visit.
Deputy Chief of staff Xu was also worried about his daughter.
A group of soldiers from the Guards department came to their place that day, holding a warrant of arrest signed by the General. With that, they brought Xu Piaohong away with no other explanation.
His wife and himself wanted to give chase, but they were stopped. They were told that they would not be able to go anywhere until the case was resolved.
Deputy Chief of Staff Xu was furious at that time. He raised his voice at the guards, reminding them of his position and workload, and asked if they'll be responsible if he was to miss his datelines.
However, shortly after, they received news that he was to be immobilized.
Both Deputy Chief of Staff Xu and his wife admitted defeat, and did not dare to be rude to the guards again.
Since they've already decided to immobilize him, Deputy Chief of Staff Xu didn't care about how he'd be affected anymore. He raised an appeal to the people who put him under home arrest to allow him a visit to his daughter. He also said that he would bring this matter to the military court if they do not grant him the visit.
There was a time limit for house arrests. Once the limit was over, they'd have to hand the matter over to the military court.
Upon receiving his appeal, they had a discussion and agreed to his request.
It had already been a week since Xu Piaohong was arrested when she saw her parents again.
"Mum! Dad! Save me! I don't want to be jailed!" Xu Piaohong was crying a river, and looked extremely haggard.
There were no expensive beauty and skincare products in the station. Her skin was dry and oily, and looked less beautiful than before.
Mrs. Xu looked at her daughter with empathy, and said chokingly: "Don't be afraid, Piaohong, Mommy will get you the best lawyer. They wouldn't be able to charge you as guilty."
Even though Deputy Chief of Staff Xu's heart also went to his daughter, he knew that she was indeed guilty, and already left a bad mark in her career. It's consequences was still ongoing, and no one knew if there would be any serious repercussions.
It'd be better to go to trial earlier for matters like this.
"Piaohong, wait for abit longer. Your case should be going for trial very soon." Deputy Chief of Staff consoled her. "When the time comes, perhaps after a couple of years in jail, you'd be…"
"What?! I really have to go to jail?! I don't want to! How could I face people if I were to go to jail?!" Xu Piaohong bawled her head off, and insisted that she wouldn't want to continue living if her parents didn't manage to save her from being sentenced to jail.
She was making a scene in the visiting room in the station.
Mrs. Xu cried along with her. Deputy Chief of Staff Xu could not control the both of them. He could only stand helplessly by the side, and allowed both mother and daughter to vent their frustrations.
The officer who was standing guard however, was not having any of this.
Walking in, she warned Xu Piaohong. "Number 26! Be quiet! You'd be violating the rule if you continue to be like that, and have to be subjected to punishments!"
"I don't care! Punishments your ass! I'm going to be sentenced to jail; why would I care about punishments?!" After holding it in for a week, Xu Piaohong honestly could not hold it in any longer. Flailing her arms, she charged at the female officer.
The officer quickly took a taser out from her belt and shouted: "Attacking the police! That's a serious offence! Number 26, think before you act!"
It was too late when Xu Piaohong finally came to her senses. One of her flailing arms went into contact with the taser, and her arm felt numb all over.
The numbness travelled to her body, and within seconds, Xu Piaohong lost her balance and fell to the floor, unable to get up for a long while.
Mrs. Xu wanted to charge over when she saw Xu Piaohong being like that, and was warned by the officer. "Don't come any closer! You'll have to be punished if you do as well!"
Deputy Chief of Staff Xu quickly held on to his wife, and brought her out of the visiting room.
They began looking for lawyers for Xu Piaohong the moment they got home.
Upon knowing the causes of the case, most of the law firms did not wish to take it on. The one who agreed to take the case on finally, was still JD law firm, by a newly graduated lawyer, Jin Wanyi.
They had to wait for a month for the case to be opened in court. Therefore, during this time, Jin Wanyi began visiting the Special Forces department, hoping to have a meet up with Yin Shixiong.
…
Gu Nianzhi did not know that Huo Shaoheng's Special Forces had already locked He Zhichu as one of the key persons to be kept under surveillance. She also did not know that Huo Shaoheng had already begun to listen in on He Zhichu's daily activities through his phone. She only knows that her phone is always open to Huo Shaoheng if he wants to look it through.
Phonecalls that could get through to her were filtered. Not everyone could call her whenever they wanted.
She focused on 'recuperating' in her room for an entire fortnight, and felt like she was turning mouldy.
Thankfully, the moment the second week passed, Chen Lie sent a 'doctor's note' over, indicating that she had already 'fully recovered' and could return to school.
Gu Nianzhi thanked Chen Lie gratefully: "Thank you so much Brother Chen, I was so worried that I would have to be locked up for another fortnight!"
"Remember, never let the cat out of the bag." Chen Lie reminded her softly. "It's another fortnight to Xu Piaohong's hearing. Her representative lawyer is currently trying to look for leads all over the place. She seems rather enthusiastic about this. Don't fall for her tricks."
Gu Nianzhi smiled and nodded: "Got it. I study law as well. If the lawyer ever tries to get something out of me, she'd need to put in a hell lot of effort."
Gu Nianzhi packed her things to return to school on Sunday evening.
Huo Shaoheng hadn't visited her for the past fortnight. He went somewhere on a work trip for a week, before returning to the Army's Supreme Council to do the handover of position of the Vice Secretary. His schedule was beyond packed.
Gu Nianzhi only sent him a text before turning in every day. Huo Shaoheng would only reply when he had the time to.
Gu Nianzhi stared at her phone the entire day. She'd be happy for the whole day whenever Huo Shaoheng sends her a reply.
However, if there were nothing from him that day, she'd be all moody and sad.
Gu Nianzhi felt that she was going mad soon to place all her source of emotions onto one single person.
She wanted to leave this place as soon as possible and return to school. She hoped that she wouldn't be so dependent that way.
It was obvious that he did not like his girlfriend to be overly dependent.
Carrying her bag and a small suitcase, she walked out from the mansion. She was waiting for Yin Shixiong to drive her to school.
But Yin Shixiong was nowhere to be seen.
After waiting for a long while, she Gu Nianzhi had no choice but to give him a call.
Yin Shixiong only picked up after a while of ringing. Yin Shixiong said hastely: "Nianzhi? I'm at tha main gate. Can you come out on your own?"
Gu Nianzhi thought she heard quarelling in the background. Hesitating, she asked: "Brother Xiong, are you okay?"
"Don't worry about it. Someone insisted on entering, so I was trying to stop her." Yin Shixiong turned to the person, Jin Wanyi, who kept pestering him to grant her access to the place and said: "Lawyer Jin, I'm busy. I have to send someone out. I'm going now. Others wouldn't have tempers as good as mine. Don't blame me for not giving you a warning when you get arrested."


Gu Nianzhi had no idea how to get the aloof and handsome Major General to fall in love with her. 

His eyes were dark and serious. "...Seduce me. If you can do it, I’m yours." 

Gu Nianzhi: "!!!"
