"Holy crap!" Qin Yi stared at the attribute panel in his eyes, his heart already churning. He couldn't help but curse, muttering to himself, "The effect of this gene strengthening potion is just too good! My six-dimensional attribute values have all become 10? This is the Peak value for an ordinary person! Isn't this a textbook 'hexagonal warrior'?"

As his gaze moved down, when he saw the Realm column, Qin Yi was shocked once again.

"Damn, even my Realm has been upgraded to the Middle Stage of Ming Jin?! If I take a few more bottles, wouldn't I be insanely strong?" Thinking of this, Qin Yi immediately asked the System: "System, can this gene strengthening potion be taken continuously?"

[Ding! Replying to the Host, the gene strengthening potion can be taken multiple times, but there are Rank limits! The Elementary gene strengthening potion is only effective for the Mingjin Stage. Once past the Mingjin Stage, taking more will have no effect!]

"Then, once my Realm reaches the Anjin Stage, does that mean I need to take an Intermediate gene strengthening potion?" Qin Yi asked further.

[Ding! Replying to the Host, that is correct! Elementary potions correspond to the Mingjin Stage, Intermediate potions correspond to the Anjin Stage, Advanced potions correspond to the Huajin Stage, Top-tier potions correspond to the Danjin Stage, and Divine-Grade potions correspond to the Gangjin Stage!]

After hearing this, Qin Yi nodded thoughtfully and continued to ask: "What about breaking through the Void Realm and reaching the Realm of 'Seeing God and Not Breaking'?"

[Ding! Replying to the Host, if the Host can reach this Realm, you will no longer be human! Naturally, you will not need the gene strengthening potion as an aid!]

"I see..." Qin Yi muttered to himself, his expression showing some regret.

Just then, he suddenly remembered that if he broke through to the Anjin Stage in the future and drew an Elementary gene strengthening potion from the lottery, wouldn't it be useless? Such a good item shouldn't be wasted.

Therefore, Qin Yi continued to ask: "System, can this gene strengthening potion be used by others?"

[Ding! Replying to the Host, yes! For the Host to become a supreme powerhouse, relying solely on fighting alone will narrow your path! However, I must remind the Host that the gene strengthening potion is far beyond the current level of technology. If the Host wishes to gift it to others, you must choose an object who trusts the Host completely and is completely loyal to the Host!]

Qin Yi nodded. Indeed, Qin Yi understood the principle that 'innocence is no crime, but holding a treasure is a crime'!

Qin Yi was about to ask something else when a slight rustling sound suddenly came from his ear.

He turned his head to look and saw that Xu Qian had already put on her clothes and was cautiously walking towards the living room.

"Young Master Qin... you, you didn't leave." Xu Qian said in surprise after seeing Qin Yi, a blush appearing on her face, her voice as faint as a mosquito.

Qin Yi stood up from the sofa, looked at Xu Qian's attire, and asked curiously: "Qianqian, you're awake. You... are you leaving?"

Xu Qian saw Qin Yi was bare-chested, with only a bath towel tied around his waist, and it seemed like he was wearing nothing underneath...

A flash of shock appeared in her eyes, and she hurriedly covered her eyes, her face flushing with even deeper shyness, and she exclaimed: "Ah! Why aren't you wearing clothes?"

Qin Yi's eyes flashed with a cunning light. He walked up to Xu Qian and said softly: "I just finished showering, I haven't had time to change yet. As for you, when did you wake up? Why did you put your clothes on so quickly? Shouldn't you have taken a shower first?"

Xu Qian felt the scorching aura radiating from Qin Yi, as well as the faint scent of body wash, which stirred an inexplicable emotion in her heart.

She replied shyly: "I... I... I'm going to be late for work, there's no time to shower..."

Qin Yi took a step closer, and Xu Qian couldn't help but take two steps back until she hit the wall.

Her heart beat like a drum, and she kept her eyes tightly closed, not daring to look into Qin Yi's eyes.

"Work? Today is Saturday." Qin Yi's voice was full of playfulness.

Xu Qian's delicate body trembled: "The car dealership doesn't rest on Saturdays, we only rest on Tuesdays..." Her voice was as soft as a mosquito's hum.

Qin Yi gently lifted Xu Qian's chin, his gaze locked onto her: "I see... Are you very nervous? Why are you closing your eyes? Last night we..."

Xu Qian's delicate body trembled slightly. She didn't want to recall those blush-inducing details: "Don't say it, I beg you, don't say it..."

Qin Yi smiled slightly and stopped speaking. One hand propped against the wall, trapping Xu Qian between himself and the wall.

His other hand gently lifted Xu Qian's chin, then he tilted his head and kissed her lips lightly.

Xu Qian wanted to struggle, but her hands were curled in front of her chest, gently pounding on Qin Yi's bare chest...

Her heart was filled with panic and shyness, but it was also mixed with an indescribable anticipation.

...

Another hour passed quietly, and the two lay back on the bed.

Qin Yi was still naked, leaning against the headboard, while Xu Qian nestled in Qin Yi's arms, a shy blush on her face, as moving as a newly bloomed flower.

"Young Master Qin, aren't you tired? We were just intimate last night, and you're so energetic again today." Xu Qian's tone carried a hint of coquettishness, as if she were complaining, yet also acting like she was flirting.

Qin Yi laughed, looking at Xu Qian's shy and coquettish appearance, his words filled with satisfaction and confidence: "How could I be tired? Believe it or not, I could go another three hundred rounds right now!"

As Qin Yi spoke, a provocative light flashed in his eyes, making Xu Qian blush even more.

Xu Qian raised her pink fist and gently punched Qin Yi. A shy blush appeared on her face again, and she said in a soft, coquettish voice like a thin thread: "You're annoying, stop making such jokes. You're not tired, but I'm so tired my legs are shaking."

Qin Yi looked at Xu Qian's exhausted yet shy appearance, and felt a wave of pity in his heart.

He tightened his embrace, making Xu Qian lean more comfortably against him, then said gently: "Alright, I won't tease you anymore. Don't worry, since you are already my woman, I will naturally be responsible for you."

He gently stroked Xu Qian's hair and continued: "As for the car dealership, if you don't want to work there anymore, then don't. I'll go talk to Brother Kun, and the commissions and bonuses you're owed will definitely not be short a single cent. As for the house you're renting now, let's return it today and you can just move in here. If you don't feel comfortable living with me, you can pick another unit. Anyway, this whole building is mine, just live in whichever one you like."

Hearing this, Xu Qian's panic and shyness intensified.

She lowered her head slightly, not daring to look into Qin Yi's eyes, and said in a faint, trembling voice: "Actually, I still can't believe that we would develop to this point."

Qin Yi looked down at her and asked with some hesitation: "What? You, regret it?"

Xu Qian raised her head, met Qin Yi's eyes, shook her head gently, and said affectionately: "No, I don't regret it. I understand Young Master Qin's feelings for me, it's just that I've been used to working and living alone, used to the days where I had things to do and money to earn. If I were to suddenly have nothing to do, I would feel panicked and insecure..."

Qin Yi tightened his arm, pulling Xu Qian closer, and said slowly: "You have me now, how can you still be insecure?"

Xu Qian smiled sweetly, looked up at Qin Yi, and a complex emotion flashed in her eyes: "I know, Young Master Qin, you are different from those ordinary rich second generations. Young Master Qin has a sense of responsibility and shouldn't be the type to abandon someone after getting what you want. If I asked Young Master Qin to be responsible, Young Master Qin would definitely agree. But, after all, my family background is ordinary. Although I don't know exactly what Young Master Qin's family does, it's definitely not something a girl from a common family like me can climb up to."

"Qianqian..." Qin Yi wanted to explain, but Xu Qian reached out to block Qin Yi's mouth, interrupting what he was about to say. Her eyes were as tender as water as she continued: "Young Master Qin, I admit, I really like you. I like you as a person, and I also like your heart. I also believe that you have genuine feelings for me and aren't just playing around. It's just that I have self-knowledge. With a status like Young Master Qin's, even if we are together, it won't lead to a result."

Qin Yi asked in confusion: "But, Qianqian, if you think this way, why did you give yourself to me last night?"

Xu Qian smiled, her smile carrying a bit of loneliness, and her voice mixed with some regret and unwillingness: "Didn't I say it? I like Young Master Qin. It's just that liking someone doesn't mean we can be together forever. I still have that realization..."

Qin Yi felt a bit bitter. He actually wasn't sure whether his feelings for Xu Qian were genuine, or just gratitude, or perhaps the education he received for so many years told him that he couldn't be a 'proper' rich second generation like Wang Hao for the time being.

Qin Yi didn't know what to say to comfort her for a moment, just thinking to himself, what has this girl been through all these years to be so sensible that it makes one's heart ache...

He could only pull Xu Qian tightly into his arms, lowered his head and kissed her forehead, pondered for a moment, and said gently: "Qianqian, don't worry. Since you've become my woman, I will naturally give you the best of everything. I won't force you on the work issue; just keep working at Brother Kun's for now. When I start a company later, you can come and help me. However, you have to listen to me regarding the house. I'll have Manager Bai show you around later, and you can live in whichever one you like. If you don't like any of them, I'll go buy you another one elsewhere! As for the rest, don't overthink it!"

Xu Qian shook her head and said softly: "Young Master Qin, actually, there's no need to go to such trouble... I can already earn quite a bit from that deal you made at the car dealership yesterday, which is enough for me to move to a better place. You can just treat what happened between us as me repaying Young Master Qin for that deal..."

Qin Yi interrupted her: "What kind of silly talk is that! If you were really that kind of woman, I might not have taken a fancy to you in the first place! Qianqian, I trust my judgment; you are not that kind of woman!"

Hearing Qin Yi say this, Xu Qian's eyes gradually blurred.

She looked up at Qin Yi's sincere gaze, her heart filled with emotion and warmth.

"Young Master Qin..." she said softly, as if all her words had turned into this one call.

Qin Yi reached out and gently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, saying softly: "Alright. You just relax and don't think about nonsense."

"Mm... I'll listen to Young Master Qin..."

...

The two were intimate on the bed for a while longer. Xu Qian got out of bed with a satisfied smile on her face and walked towards the bathroom, preparing to wash up properly.

Qin Yi watched her leave, then quietly leaned against the headboard, his eyes revealing a trace of deep thought.

He reached out and grabbed the phone on the nightstand and pressed it habitually, but the screen was pitch black and didn't respond at all.

He paused for a moment, then remembered that he seemed to have forgotten to charge his phone last night, and it had automatically shut down because the battery was dead.

However, fortunately, he had bought four new phones last night, so he could just swap the SIM card and charge the old phone while he was at it.

Qin Yi got out of bed, took out a phone from the white shopping bag from Huawei, skillfully unpacked it, inserted the SIM card from the old phone, and used the new charger to charge the old phone. After completing a series of initial settings, the new phone finally entered the System.

However, just at this moment, the phone suddenly made a "beep" alert sound. Qin Yi frowned slightly and saw that there were several unread text messages on the screen.

He clicked on the messages and found they were missed call notifications from the carrier.

From last night until now, there were actually over a dozen such messages, one of which called almost every two minutes.

He was too familiar with that number. Even without a name, he knew who it was from at a glance.

He couldn't help but feel a little confused. Why was Su Mo calling him so frequently?

Since Su Mo broke up with him a month ago, she had never taken the initiative to contact him again.

Such intensive contact all of a sudden made Qin Yi feel a bit unusual.

Just as he was lost in thought, the phone 'beeped' again, and a new text message came in.

Qin Yi clicked it open, and the content made his pupils shrink, and his eyebrows furrowed.

This text message was the one Su Mo sent him last night, but the content made him vigilant.

"Damn it, what kind of trick is Wang Hao trying to pull now!" Qin Yi cursed inwardly.

Although Su Mo's words in the text message were sincere and she took the initiative to admit her mistakes, Qin Yi didn't believe a word of it.

In Qin Yi's view, this must be Wang Hao playing tricks behind the scenes again, and the two of them might be plotting some conspiracy to scheme against him.

After all, the few people he beat up last night were, without a doubt, sent by Wang Hao.

Qin Yi took a deep breath, calmed the anger in his heart, and casually added Su Mo's number to the blacklist, out of sight, out of mind.

No matter what conspiracies they had, after he finished dealing with his family matters, he would definitely make Wang Hao pay the price!
