102: The next stage goal is to become the richest man in the world, and short selling is prohibited.
Hehe!
This virtual projection ability is quite good!
I like it.
Although Lu Xingye's brain became more rational after taking NZT-48, he still harbored fantasies about love.
The female lead in reality?
The female lead in a fantasy world?
Sigh!
It's so hard to choose!
No, that's not right.
Only children make choices; adults want it all.
Lu Xingye wasn't a philanderer; love was something that depended on fate.
It couldn't be forced... Even though Lu Xingye knew that if he could bring a fantasy character into the real world, it would help him far more than items from movies.
This was an entire unit of living power!
…For example:
The female lead of 'Lucy', after her brain was over-developed, gained incredible abilities.
She was basically non-human.
If he could bring her to reality, she would definitely be of great help to him. With the Lucy female lead by his side, he wouldn't need to fear anyone.
However.
Lu Xingye wouldn't choose the female lead from Lucy.
She wasn't his type.
Lu Xingye still liked cute, innocent, adorable, and pure young ladies.
Full of the taste of first love.
This kind of lively and cute girl could, to a certain extent, fill Lu Xingye's emotional void.
Moreover, she couldn't just be a pretty face.
She had to possess the strength to stand at the world's peak with him.
Love couldn't be forced; it mainly depended on fate.
Lu Xingye pondered for a moment, then dismissed the thoughts in his mind.
He could only take things as they came... A moment later.
Lu Xingye took out his phone, opened the browser, and typed "world's richest man" into Baidu.
The webpage immediately displayed information about the world's richest man.
The world's richest man was Boss Ma of the Tesla Group, with assets of 290 billion US dollars.
Converted into RMB, that was nearly 2.03 trillion dragon coin.
This amount was terrifying!
One should know that the richest man in Jiuzhou had a total asset of only 240 billion, while the world's richest man had over 2 trillion, basically ten times that of Jiuzhou's richest man.
Any person, seeing this string of numbers, would feel their scalp tingle.
Over 2 trillion?
Even a printing press couldn't print that much.
However.
Lu Xingye didn't feel disheartened when he saw the information on the webpage. To others, earning 2 trillion was basically impossible.
But to him, earning 2 trillion was only a bit difficult.
It wasn't an impossible task.
Lu Xingye slid his right finger, opening more information about the world's richest man.
world's richest man: Boss Ma of the Small T Group.
Total Assets: 2.03 trillion dragon coin.
Main industries involved: aerospace, new energy vehicles, energy, finance... and also the arms industry...
Boss Ma, oh Boss Ma!
You are truly rich.
It's really not easy for me to become the world's richest man.
Fortunately, Lu Xingye held the core technology of the Nano Battery, completely dominating the Small T Group; otherwise, there would be trouble... Now that the Golden Finger research was complete.
Then, it was time to watch movies. Lu Xingye's goal was to watch all the sci-fi movies made in this world, familiarizing himself with their plots.
Then.
He would list all the items, props, and characters from all the movies, compare them.
And pick out his favorite items from them.
This way, he wouldn't waste his chances of breaking the second dimensional barrier... Bang!
Lu Xingye gently opened the door and tiptoed out. He saw Long Yubing sitting quietly on the sofa, engrossed in a variety show, seemingly unaware of him.
He slowly walked towards Long Yubing, intending to pull her along to watch a movie.
What was the point of secretly watching movies alone in a room?
Of course, watching it together with someone else made it less boring.
As the saying goes, boys and girls working together don't get tired... However.
Lu Xingye's plan to sneak over and surprise Long Yubing failed.
Long Yubing seemed to have eyes in the back of her head.
Before Lu Xingye even reached her, she discovered him.
"So fast, are you done again?"
"So short!"
Long Yubing turned to look at Lu Xingye, her face flushed. She was a soldier by profession and had undergone special training later on; even with slight movements, she could distinguish them.
What the heck!
Hearing Long Yubing's voice, Lu Xingye's footsteps halted, and he frowned deeply.
If I remember correctly, you said something similar last time, didn't you?
What do you mean "so short"?
Can you please explain yourself clearly?
Even if Lu Xingye was big-hearted, after Long Yubing said "so short" twice in a row, he realized something was amiss.
You... are you thinking something else?
I'm not that kind of person.
Lu Xingye opened his mouth, wanting to explain, but he didn't know how.
"Don't say 'so short' anymore," he said, his face stern.
"Why?" Long Yubing unconsciously stuck out her tongue, seeming less aloof than before.
Perhaps.
Long Yubing wasn't that aloof at all.
The indifference she displayed before was just her protective coloration, making others think she was very strong.
After getting to know Long Yubing better, Lu Xingye found that she wasn't so unapproachable.
If she wasn't someone sent by Jiuzhou.
Perhaps Lu Xingye would share some of his secrets with her.
Perhaps... perhaps some more-than-friendly relationship might even develop.
"Don't ask."
"If you ask, it's because I'm your boss." Lu Xingye chuckled lightly, directly deciding the matter, forbidding any further discussion of "so short."
Others might not mind.
But being told by a woman that a man is "so short" was truly an insult. No man could endure it.
"Well... okay!"
"You're the boss..."
Long Yubing nodded lightly, deliberately drawing out the words "the boss" with a hint of teasing.
Immediately after, she resumed her original cold demeanor.
She coldly turned her head, her gaze wandering, pretending to watch the variety show.
"Yubing."
"Don't you get tired of watching variety shows every day?"
Lu Xingye walked to the front of the coffee table and sat shoulder to shoulder with Long Yubing, casually picking up the TV remote control from the coffee table.
On the other side.
Long Yubing watched Lu Xingye approach, and her fair, smooth legs on the coffee table suddenly retracted. Perhaps fearing that Lu Xingye would take advantage, she covered her small feet tightly with her skirt.
Looking like she was guarding against a wolf.
"What's it to you?"
"And why are you out in the living room?"
"You're disturbing my variety show."
"I'm a little unaccustomed to you being here."
Listening to Long Yubing's words, Lu Xingye suddenly laughed, a somewhat brilliant laugh.
"Before you said that, didn't you even think about who the owner of this villa is?"
"I'm the owner of this house, alright?"
"I can stay wherever I want."
"What's it to you?"
Lu Xingye perfectly returned the phrase "What's it to you?"
"You..."
