133: Chapter 133 A Man of Moral Character

"Alright, I'll allocate them to you! Do you need a driver?"

"No need!"

"Alright!"

After hanging up, Gao Yuan breathed a sigh of relief. His preparations were almost complete. Now he just needed to go to the Future World to bring back the robot production line and set it up in the park's workshop. Once the raw materials Qin Tiejun promised arrived, they could start producing robots.

After a busy day...

That night, Gao Yuan lay in the middle of the backyard. Ever since he had summoned the Space-Time Gate elsewhere, the box in the backyard had disappeared.

In the mountains, the stars in the sky were very bright.

But every point of light was a celestial body that humanity could never reach.

Gao Yuan had asked before; since technology in the Future World was so advanced, they should be able to leave the Solar System and visit other star systems.

But in the archive room, Gao Yuan had actually seen some information.

The discussion in the middle was long, but the conclusion was very short...

The conclusion was that humanity would never be able to leave the Solar System.

The dyson sphere imagined in many science fiction novels would always be an extravagant hope. If they couldn't leave the Solar System, then even if they smelted all the planets, asteroids, and moons in the Solar System, there wouldn't be enough material to build a dyson sphere.

Because the Sun's mass accounts for 99.8% of the Solar System, while all other celestial bodies make up only 0.2%! Of that 0.2%, Jupiter accounts for 90%!

To build a dyson sphere, one would need to at least completely refine Jupiter. Jupiter is the Solar System's 'scavenger'; its presence keeps the Asteroid Belt stable in its orbit. Once Jupiter is refined, the Solar System's gravitational field would fall into chaos. Perhaps before the dyson sphere was even finished, Earth and other planets would have already been destroyed by scattered asteroids.

So as long as humanity remains confined to the Solar System, a dyson sphere will always be an extravagant hope.

Just as he was thinking, there was a knock at the door.

Who could it be so late at night?

Before Gao Yuan could ask, An Jiu, the Security Robot beside him, answered.

"Bai Moyu is outside!"

Gao Yuan was stunned; he hadn't seen her in a long time.

Why was she here at this hour?

Could there be some emergency?

"An Jiu, open the door!"

Soon, Bai Moyu came in.

"Gao Yuan?"

"It's so late, why are you here?"

Bai Moyu sat down directly beside Gao Yuan, and he smelled alcohol on her.

"Have you been drinking?"

Under the night sky, Bai Moyu's eyes were very bright.

"I resigned!"

Huh?

Gao Yuan was a bit confused. He had heard before that Bai Moyu had been promoted. In her twenties, she had already reached the rank of a Deputy Section Chief with real power. With a few more years of experience, a full Section Chief position was within reach!

In a small place, being a Section Chief was considered quite respectable!

"What happened?"

"Sigh, it's nothing much! Thanks to you, I became the Deputy Director of our office..."

"Isn't a promotion a good thing?"

"It is, but... most of the people in the office have more seniority than me. Suddenly climbing over their heads... forget it. After resigning, I feel a weight has been lifted!"

In fact, the details didn't need to be explained.

It would be strange for a girl with no background, promoted solely because of an old classmate, to have a comfortable life within the system.

Those old-timers might smile on the surface, but behind the scenes, they have plenty of ways to make you miserable without you being able to complain.

The Investment Promotion Bureau was originally a low-stakes department, but after Gao Yuan arrived, it became the town's golden goose. Many people with connections wanted to get a piece of the pie, and Bai Moyu was standing in their way.

However, because of Bai Moyu's relationship with Gao Yuan as a classmate, they couldn't touch her, so it was only natural for them to make things unpleasant for her.

"What do you plan to do from now on?"

Gao Yuan asked.

"Just work, I guess. Gao Yuan, can you take me in?"

Bai Moyu looked at Gao Yuan.

Gao Yuan's heart fluttered under her gaze.

There are many things in life one can't let go of, and the hardest to let go of is the girl one liked when first falling in love.

Even when dying in bed in the future, one might still remember the smile of that girl under the sunlight from their youth.

Now, Bai Moyu was right in front of him...

Gao Yuan blurted out, "I'll support you!"

Bai Moyu fell silent for a few seconds, then suddenly burst out laughing.

"Gao Yuan, you... you're still the same, haha, saying a joke so seriously..."

While laughing...

Bai Moyu suddenly stopped.

"Really?"

Gao Yuan nodded...

The next moment, he felt two warm lips pressed against his own.

With a hint of youthful sweetness mixed with the scent of cosmetics, Bai Moyu's warm breath continuously brushed against him...

Gao Yuan was now a regular at clubs.

But only now did he realize that a loved one and... a young model were truly different.

That electric-like numbness kept hitting his brain. He stuck out... his tongue!

...

"No, no, Gao Yuan..."

"Little Fish..."

"No!"

Bai Moyu suddenly pushed Gao Yuan away.

Both were panting.

"Gao Yuan, sorry, I was impulsive. I've been drinking, I... actually, I just came to see you!"

Gao Yuan's eyes stared straight at Bai Moyu.

"Not here, let's go inside!"

Bai Moyu wanted to refuse, but Gao Yuan picked her up and carried her inside.

...

That night, spring arrived once again in this old house.

When Gao Yuan woke up in the morning, he turned his head and pressed down on a strand of smooth long hair. At that moment, Gao Yuan realized that it was all real.

"Little Fish..."

The beauty with her back to Gao Yuan only showed her fair neck and did not respond.

Gao Yuan called out again. He originally thought Bai Moyu was still asleep, but he suddenly noticed her neck turning red.

"Stop pretending, I know you're awake! If you don't turn around, I'm going to reach over!"

Bai Moyu flipped over and looked at Gao Yuan with her large eyes.

"Last night..."

"The moon was so beautiful last night, wasn't it?"

"Mm..."

"Stay! I remember you studied business management in college, right? It just so happens I'm short of a... well, CEO!"

"But I don't have any experience managing a company!"

"It's a monopoly, it doesn't matter!"

Gao Yuan suddenly had a woman; this was his first woman in the Real World.

He visited clubs in the Future World, so he was still a man who kept himself clean here.

"Little Fish, from now on, you are the CEO of Jellyfish!"

"What Jellyfish? Are you making fun of me?"

Bai Moyu asked.

"Don't overthink it. Black Fish Technology has five subsidiaries, and Jellyfish Biotechnology is one of them. There hasn't been any business before, but now Jellyfish Biotechnology's products are ready to be promoted, and you arrived just in time..."

Gao Yuan then explained the properties of the Life-Sustaining Base Fluid to Bai Moyu.

Bai Moyu looked shocked. "If this is true, it's a great thing for the country and the people!"

"Of course, that's why I want to promote it... but once it's widely promoted, most people in the Medical Industry will lose their jobs. What will happen to them in the future?"

"You're overthinking. Your Constant Temperature Clothing also impacted the Garment Industry, especially down jackets and cotton-padded clothes... The Garment Industry is labor-intensive, and even more people lost their jobs! Your wrist machine left many contract factories without orders!"

Gao Yuan was stunned for a moment...

So many people were unemployed because of him.
