Nuclear-powered Sword Immortal-Chapter 688 - 642 Transformation_3

A flash of Spirit Light crossed Xie Yusheng’s mind.

Previously, he had always felt that his position in the South Heavenly Gate project team was purely out of luck, having connected with that mysterious Qian Star person.

However, his role as the contact was soon usurped by Zhao Qilin, and he was marginalized within the South Heavenly Gate project team. This made him realize that he was truly just a lucky ordinary person. Anyone with a bit of status could replace him and take his position.

Thus, he did just enough to get by in the South Heavenly Gate project team.

But with the establishment of the True Immortal Research Institute, he regained his position as the contact, and during the process of reconnecting with the Qian Star people, no one came forward to replace him again.

Moreover, given the somewhat unusual attitude of the Qian Star person towards him and the prolonged lack of communication from Immortal Sui Mu, everyone’s attention had to shift back to the Qian Star person...

And him...

"No wonder Qiao Siyu, after being quiet for a while, started contacting me again over the last few months?"

Xie Yusheng suddenly realized.

His position seemed not to be so easily replaceable.

Instead...

Unique!?

Once Immortal Sui Mu’s disappearance was confirmed, the True Immortal Research Institute would have to rely on the "Qian Star people" for information on the Longevity World!?

And he, due to having earned the favor of the "Qian Star person", was the designated contact. His status was bound to rise as the "Qian Star people" gained importance!

With his status as a Level 7 civil servant, once he took another step forward...

He would be like the Nobles as a Sixth-level Civil Servant!

In the entire country, people at this level numbered only a few thousand!

"So, I guess I, and everyone else in the Xie Family, have been naively treating myself as just an ordinary employee of a key department... But only the people of the Qiao Family, who are involved in the True Immortal Research Institute, truly understand the significance of my position as the contact. That’s why they always keep Qiao Siyu watching over me, refusing to leave my side..."

Xie Yusheng suddenly clarified all these connections.

He, Xie Yusheng, was a diamond bachelor with boundless prospects.

"Xiao Sheng, your uncle is talking to you, why aren’t you responding? When did you become so impolite?"

Zhang Zixue said sternly.

Xie Yusheng came back to his senses, looked at Zhang Zixue, then at Xie Dong’an, and suddenly said, "What do you think, if I bring this proposal up with Qiao Siyu, would she pressure you to agree to my request?"

Upon hearing this, Xie Dong’an and Zhang Zixuan’s expressions froze.

After a while, Xie Dong’an said, "Xiao Sheng, if you really want shares, I can discuss it with father and several uncles. We can give you one percent as a wedding gift, but... no more than that."

Xie Yusheng didn’t speak; he simply took out his phone and dialed Qiao Siyu’s video call.

The ringtone sounded three times before her image appeared on the screen.

"Ah Sheng."

Qiao Siyu didn’t seem surprised by Xie Yusheng’s call and spoke unhurriedly, "There’s a top-tier art exhibition in Yunhai City tomorrow afternoon featuring works by Mr. Jia Nan. Would you like to join me?"

"I’m interested in taking control of the Shanhai Group. Does your Qiao Family have a way? If you can do it, our marriage is not out of the question."

Xie Yusheng bluntly stated his demand without beating around the bush.

Qiao Siyu was taken aback on the phone: "Ah Sheng, the share distribution of Shanhai Group is your family matter... I shouldn’t interfere..."

"Shouldn’t interfere? Yet I feel you’ve been very proactive in our family matters..."

Xie Yusheng retorted discontentedly.

Before he could finish, Zhang Zixuan hastily intervened: "Xiao Sheng, how can you talk to Miss Qiao like that?"

After saying that, she quickly turned to Qiao Siyu: "Miss Qiao, Xiao Sheng is not in his best state today. I apologize to you on his behalf..."

Xie Dong’an and Zhang Zixue, having recovered, also hurriedly joined in the apologies: "Yes, Miss Qiao, this kid is talking nonsense, don’t take it to heart..."

Qiao Siyu didn’t respond, but Xie Yusheng watched her coldly, "Isn’t this level of interference enough?"

"Ah Sheng, if you hadn’t ignored my calls, I wouldn’t have troubled your uncle and aunt..."

Qiao Siyu sounded a bit aggrieved.

"Is that so? I should resign from the South Heavenly Gate project team and focus on dating you, being a good husband, right?"

Xie Yusheng said.

Upon hearing this, Xie Dong’an, Zhang Zixue, and others immediately showed delighted expressions.

But Qiao Siyu quickly contradicted her earlier calm, hastily saying, "No..."

After shouting this, she realized something and started to reassess Xie Yusheng anew.

However, Xie Yusheng clearly didn’t intend to drag the conversation out any slower, directly stating, "I have given you the opportunity. I want control of Shanhai Group, consider that your dowry gift. Of course, you and the Qiao Family behind you can also weigh whether it’s worth going through all this trouble for me, someone who has only started to show potential but hasn’t translated it into real power yet."

"Ah Sheng..."

Qiao Siyu called out.

"What, too direct for you to handle?"

Xie Yusheng said.

"It’s not that..."

Qiao Siyu’s voice seemed to soften, "I just think you’re particularly charming today."

"Ha, that’s it. You all can go discuss it. Give me an answer within a day. Don’t keep me waiting."

Xie Yusheng hung up the phone directly.

After the call, Xie Dong’an, Zhang Zixue, and Xie Yurou stared blankly at Xie Yusheng for a long time, unable to snap back to reality.
