Tech Dominator Starts with Raising Kids-Chapter 377: Liu Hailong

The next second, Mo Jingchun lost interest in finding out why.

Little Grey used his innate ability, shaking his fur and splashing rainwater all over Mo Jingchun’s face.

For a moment, Mo Jingchun had the urge to properly educate Little Grey.

Unfortunately, given Little Grey’s small size, one slap might turn him into hot pot for the evening.

Sitting on the ground, Bun licked his paw and occasionally glanced at Little Grey hiding under the desk.

Hmph, silly dog, peeing on Master Cat’s territory, didn’t even know to run in the rain.

The rain came quickly, poured heavily, and left as fast as it came.

In just about half an hour, the rain stopped.

The dark clouds in the sky quickly dispersed, and sunlight shone through the gaps, illuminating the earth.

"Brother, I’m back."

Throwing her backpack aside, Candy called out to her brother and ran into the bedroom with a pout.

Trailing behind the little one, Little Grey and Bun scrambled to follow, looking just like two personal bodyguards.

Feeling a bit uneasy, Mo Jingchun soon followed them into the bedroom.

Inside, Candy, who had stuffed her mouth with several grapes, blinked at her brother as he entered.

"Didn’t the kindergarten serve an afternoon snack today?"

After swallowing the grapes and spitting out a few seeds, Candy scratched her head, her cheeks flushed.

"They did, but it didn’t seem to fill me up."

As she spoke, the little one started to look a bit aggrieved.

How great the old days were, and why didn’t she cherish them?

Coming home and drinking milk right after school, but now those days are long gone.

She eyed a carton of milk on the table and swallowed hard.

It seemed like it could be quite tasty...

Under Mo Jingchun’s gaze, the little one inserted a straw and took two big gulps.

"Let’s go, time for dinner at home."

Look at the poor hungry little one; perhaps it’s best to keep some snacks ready at the kindergarten.

If a child is hungry, they can just ask the teacher.

Spending a bit of money on the kids is something Mo Jingchun is very willing to do.

The bacon hotpot that night had the little one eat more than half a bowl of rice.

The little one also realized that without milk at night, she needed to eat her fill, or she’d go hungry.

"Woof woof woof~"

"Meow~"

Looking at the two pairs of yearning eyes, Candy couldn’t bear it and struggled to pick up two slices of bacon with her chopsticks.

One slice for Little Grey, one for Bun.

The moment the slices hit the ground, Bun grabbed his portion and backed away three meters, cautiously guarding against Little Grey.

When it was Little Grey’s turn, he sniffed at it, sat back down, wagged his tail, and continued to gaze at Candy.

In the next second, Bun strutted over in a leisurely manner and snatched the remaining bacon slice, while Little Grey didn’t even bother to look.

"Oh no, Little Grey, you’re killing me here; Bun ate all the bacon."

The more Candy talked, the more she felt Little Grey was letting her down.

"Little Grey, if you don’t eat meat, how will you grow big and strong like Big Black? How will you hold your ground in the future?"

Sitting across from them, Mo Jingchun glanced at the small Little Grey that couldn’t grow much bigger than a palm and twitched his lips.

Could Little Grey grow up to be like a dagger? Impossible.

In terms of size, no amount of good food would make him grow to the size of a dagger.

Besides, Dagger had a very rich diet and underwent long-term formal training.

"Hurry up and eat."

"Okay~"

——————

In the laboratory, Liu Hailong adjusted the glasses on his nose and stood quietly beside the machine.

Behind Liu Hailong, a group of researchers in white lab coats stood silently, waiting for the results.

Liu Hailong looked back at them and smiled, "Don’t be so nervous. This time it will definitely succeed. I’m 99% sure."

"Boss, but there’s still a 1% chance of failure, isn’t there?"

As soon as the words were spoken, the speaker yelped, looking at the mentor with a grievance.

"Watch what you say; this time, only success is allowed, no failure."

Liu Hailong nodded in agreement, "Indeed, if we fail again, I won’t have the face to see Mr. Mo."

Hearing this, everyone felt a flush of embarrassment.

Since joining, they had been drawing high salaries but hadn’t produced any valuable results.

Even the graphene battery project was guided by the boss throughout, or else it wouldn’t have progressed so quickly.

However, the further along they got, the less frequently the boss checked in on them.

Everyone feared that if they didn’t produce results soon, they’d be out of a job.

In the dust-free lab, the only sound was a crisp beep from the machine, and the green light turned on.

Under the intense anticipation of everyone, Liu Hailong skillfully retrieved the graphene battery from the machine.

"Xiaohu, take this for charging and discharging tests, as well as battery safety testing."

"Got it, boss."

In the dust-free lab, Liu Hailong was the first to walk out.

"Disperse, everyone. The experimental data, at the earliest, won’t be available until this afternoon."

"Let’s keep pushing in our research. Even if our graphene battery succeeds, we can’t rest on our laurels, can we?"

After Liu Hailong left, the others fell into thought.

"Let’s keep researching."

The boss made a good point; putting aside other things, achieving mass production of graphene batteries alone, and improving the yield rate, is tough.

The higher the yield, the lower the production cost, which means the quicker the R&D costs can be recovered, ultimately benefiting the company.

Until the final results were out, everyone tacitly agreed not to report to the boss.

If things went south, their energy research lab wouldn’t be able to lift its head for quite some time.

In kindergarten, Candy had regained her usual self, though she occasionally daydreamed about how disappointing Little Grey was.

A dog afraid of a cat.

After nap time, the kindergarten played cheerful music.

In the dormitory, Candy yawned and rubbed her eyes.

Seeing the teacher doing other kids’ hair, Candy leaned against the wall and fiddled with her smart watch.

With nothing better to do, Candy climbed onto Xiang’Er’s bed.

"Xiang’Er."

"Hmm?" Xiang’Er, still a bit groggy, tilted her head to look at Candy, a hint of confusion in her eyes.

"Xiang’Er, are you hungry?"

Xiang’Er touched her belly; after a nap, she was indeed a bit hungry.

But they would only get extra snacks after another class.

"I’m okay."

Candy frowned, feeling her empty, rumbling belly.

"I’m already hungry."

"Later, let’s ask the teacher for some snacks."

"My brother told me last night that if we’re hungry, we can ask the teacher."

After sitting for a while, Xiang’Er was already a bit more awake.

"Can we really?"

"Of course, I’m not lying to you."

PS: These days my update schedule might be a bit irregular as I’m busy with engagement matters.

Thank you for understanding, everyone.
