The night was romantic, Hao Ren cooked a meal for Han Lingshi and the two ate it under the light of candles. Apart from the little intimacy they have reached in the past, nothing more happened. When they headed to sleep the two of them cuddled each other.


    Hao Ren woke up in the morning with Han Lingshiying in his embrace. Thedy had a gentle smile on her face, and appeared to be very calm. After a few minutes, she also opened her eyes and found Hao Ren gazing at her. She asked, "What happened?"


    Hao Ren replied calmly, "Nothing, could not help but think about something."


    Han Lingshi asked softly as she closed her eyes again, "What?"


    The young man said, "I read somewhere that time is rtive. Just now I realized that its true."


    Han Lingshi asked, "How so?"


    Hao Ren replied, "I am twenty three years old, but I felt as if it has been an infinity since I have been born. However, it feels as if only yesterday that I met you. The time that I spend with you might be infinite, but it always feels like an instant. I think I am still dizzy, I cannot articte well enough."


    Han Lingshi took a deep breath and looked at him before she said, "Go, brush your teeth."


    Hao Ren smiled and gently got out of the bed. He picked up his phone from the side table and Xiao Mei said, "Boss, mom and dad has boarded the high speed train to the capital two hours ago. They would be reaching the capital in an hour."


    Han Lingshi, who was intending to sleep in, sat up right as if possessed. She looked at Hao Ren and then asked, "What should we do?"


    Hao Ren shrugged and said, "You don''t have to worry, mom is a fan of yours. Dad is cool with us too."


    The young man looked at the screen and asked, "Hey, Xiao Mei, what''s the trending news?"


    Xiao Mei replied, "Your little video of proposing to mistress has been posted online on , also, it has been rechirped on Chirper for about a hundred thousand times already."


    Hao Ren took a deep breath and said, "Lingshi, can you ask Xuexue what is the situation at your vi?"


    Han Lingshi nodded and fiddled around to look for her phone while Hao Ren entered the bathroom. He was not afraid of anything and he said, "Xiao Mei, prepare a spective data of the Thunder technology following the current marketing and sales policies."


    Xiao Mei replied with a question, "Boss, what duration shall I prepare the data for?"


    Hao Ren thought for a bit while sitting on the toilet, and said, "One year."


    Xiao Mei answered, "Give me fifteen minutes."


    Hao Ren ced the phone on the side, and then he cleaned up.


    ...


    After half an hour, when he came out of the shower, he found that Han Lingshi was missing from the house. He called her up, and asked, "Did you flee?"


    Han Lingshi chuckled and said, "Do you take me for a coward, Hao Ren?"


    The young man shook his head and asked, "So, where did you go?"


    Han Lingshi replied, "Dad hase back home. He wanted to see me regarding this matter."


    Hao Ren nodded and said, "It is obvious, if they wish to meet me, I will show up, don''t hide anything from me."


    Han Lingshi assured him and said, "Why are you not leaving to pick up mom and dad?"


    Hao Ren chuckled and said, "I was waiting for yourmand."


    The call was disconnected and Hao Ren dialed the call to his mother, who declined to ept the call. Hao Ren sighed and called his father, who picked it up, and Hao Ren said, "Before you scold me and disconnect the call, I know that you are inside the train. I aming to pick you up. Don''t be troubled with the cabs, they cannot enter themunity."


    Old Man Hao agreed to his words. Hao Ren got down the elevator and took themercial vehicle out of the parking. Xiao Mei said, "Boss, Leonard Hamil is making a move against you."


    Hao Ren asked, "What is he doing?"


    Xiao Mei replied, "He has filed a court petition saying that you are withholding a technology that can allow everyone to grow for your selfish reasons. They are arguing that either you should file a patent for the technology."


    Hao Ren frowned and asked, "Is he a fool?"


    Xiao Mei chuckled humanely and said, "No, he is not, because he is correct. Leonard Hamil holds shares in one of thepetitors of Thunder Technology. They are using you of monopoly and stuff like that."


    Hao Ren sighed and said, "When is the hearing?"


    Xiao Mei replied, "Umm, next week at thetest."


    Hao Ren nodded and replied, "We have all the bad and shady things Hamil''s have been doing for the years, right?"


    Xiao Mei took a deep breath and said, "We do, Boss, the people will take action and seal their property and the Hamilwyers will then take an action to counter us. It would be of no use, they will get away withpensations."


    Hao Ren hummed and thought for a bit before he asked, "What is the solution?"


    Xiao Mei replied, "We file for patent, retain the exclusivity. The case will be dismissed automatically, as we will not be hiding the technology and if they want to use the technology, they will have to pay us the authorization fee. We can reject them."


    Hao Ren replied, "We cannot hold the patent forever."


    Xiao Mei replied, "File for five years, that should be enough to make them stay silent and then erase them. Boss, sometimes, we should watch the opponent and take a step back so that they think we are scared. Fools often forget that when a tiger hunts, they will take half a step back."


    Hao Ren smiled and said, "You have grown up to be wiser, Xiao Mei."


    Xiao Mei replied, "Thank you for yourpliment, Boss."


    ...


    Hao Ren reached the station and came to the arrival gate to find his parents waiting. He approached them and his mother only red at him. She did not say much, but looked at him as if she wanted to eat him raw. Hao Ren shook his head as he was used to the drama element of his mother''s character.


    He looked at the old man beside her. Mister Hao hadnky body, but his face was wrinkled now. Some hair were also missing from his head, but his back was still straight. Hao Ren smiled and said, "Old Boy, you are looking quite dashing today."


    Mister Hao raised his brow and said, "Punk, where do you think your genese from. Carry the luggage and put them in the trunk, my missus has been tired from the travel."


    Hao Ren bowed and Mister Hao turned to look at Mrs. Hao before he said, "Madam, the car is here."


    The young man with the luggage almost coughed up blood. His father just treated him like a chauffer. Hao Ren ced the luggage in the trunk and then sat in the driver''s seat. He started the car, and Mrs. Hao timed her voice perfectly, "You unfilial rascal, why didn''t you tell us about the good thingst night only? Why did I have to hear about it from Madam Wang?"


    Hao Ren was not scared of her and retorted, "Don''t you want to have grandchildren?"


    Mrs. Hao was shocked, and Hao Ren said, "These things need to be done with dedication. I am not as blessed as your husband, and can only do one thing at a time. I had to coax my wife first."


    Mister Hao asked with a snap, "What do you mean your wife? I have not met her yet."


    Hao Ren looked up in the rear view mirror and asked, "So, you and mom are different people? She agreed to Han Lingshi being my wife and even blessed us. Didn''t you, Empress Hao?"


    The olddy ignored the moniker, and said, "Old Hao, are you going to stand against my decision?"


    Mister Hao shook his head like a rattle and said, "How dare I?"


    Mrs. Hao snorted and asked, "Hao Ren, tell me, where is my Daughter-inw?"


    Hao Ren replied, "She is currently dealing with her own family. She will tell me when is a good time, till then you bunch roam around the capital and shop as many things as you want."


    He received another round of scolding for talking so casually with his parents.


    ...


    Han Mansion, Han Lingshi was sitting on the couch, while her grandparents and parents were sitting opposite to her on the big couch. They were gazing at her with great interest.


    Han Lingshi said, "You guys, am I some alien?"


    The first person to reply was her mother, "I suspect, yes. My daughter is a block of ice, and the girlst night in the video was so warm, and gentle. I do suspect that you are an alien."
