Just Really Confusing

Qiang Wei spoke at length this time, which was quite out of character for the cold beauty.

But the matter was of great importance, and there were some things she had to make clear. Besides, although she was somewhat aloof, she was still more than willing to communicate with friends she acknowledged.

Qi Lin was also a woman, and she could hear Yun Zhao's thoughts at the same time, which brought them even closer.

"I'll give it serious consideration. Thank you, Qiang Wei."

"There's no need to thank me. This is what I—"

"There's no need to say that. That was only the original future, and it hasn't happened, has it?"

Qi Lin cut Qiang Wei off. After chatting a little longer, she hung up.

She immediately began considering what Qiang Wei had said. It did make a certain amount of sense.

The next day, Yun Zhao got up as usual and went to the kitchen to make breakfast.

Just after finishing breakfast with Leng and Ling Xi, the long-silent System Bro finally made a sound.

Ding! The system has issued a Check-in Mission. Host, please proceed to the starting point of the plot and witness Galaxy Strength and Nuo Star God of War awaken their Super Genes.

"Oh? Another Check-in Mission? Excellent."

A Check-in Mission meant a substantial amount of Shop Points, along with a Mysterious Treasure Chest that could yield a valuable treasure.

But it was still early. According to the original story, nightfall was required, so there was no need to hurry.

Speaking of these two guys, Ge Xiaolun doesn't need mentioning. I've already said plenty about him, and thinking about him just makes me angry.
Today, let's talk about Liu Chuang. He's an old thug—he doesn't commit major crimes, but he's constantly causing minor trouble. Yet because he carries the Super Gene of Nuo Star God of War, he's also Old Dou's precious darling.
He's watched and monitored practically around the clock, and every time he caused trouble, Old Dou had pulled strings behind the scenes to get him out.
Liu Chuang hadn't originally been this arrogant. But after getting away with one offense after another for no apparent reason, his nerve had naturally grown bolder and bolder.
I don't understand what Old Dou was thinking. He treasured these Super Gene carriers so much that he was willing to spend all day monitoring and observing them, so why not personally guide them in a positive direction?
Ge Xiaolun was a university student, so there's no need to discuss him. Liu Chuang was a loafer, and Dextar Spear Zhao Xin was one too.
Nuo Star Sharp Knife Rui Mengmeng was young, but she worked as a waitress in a restaurant. Can you believe that?
She worked herself to the bone for a few hundred yuan a month, and sometimes, because she was too naive, her unscrupulous boss even docked her wages.
Why was she working so hard to earn money? Wasn't it so she could study properly?
These people were so special. I wasn't asking anyone to abuse their authority to give them special treatment or favors, but providing them with basic security and a positive arrangement shouldn't have been difficult, right?
Our great Hua Xia didn't treat special talents badly, did it? How much could a stable life and education for a few people possibly cost? It couldn't have been unaffordable, could it?

The goddesses all nodded inwardly. They truly couldn't understand Old Dou's approach. Since he was treating them like precious treasures and monitoring them all day, why not make proper arrangements for them? It wouldn't have taken much effort, would it?

There is a conspiracy theory claiming that Old Dou did this to keep them at rock bottom, then provide them with a good standard of living after recruiting them into the Super Soldier Company, thereby controlling them more effectively.
I have no concrete evidence for this, so I remain skeptical.
But it must be said that this is rather ridiculous.
That is why some of Old Dou's actions are genuinely confusing.
The thing I understand least is Heart of Earth Cheng Yaowen. He was the Dextar Prince. In an ancient feudal society, he would have been the sovereign, while Old Dou would have been his subject.
Yet this prince was brought to Earth by Old Dou and handed over to a farmer to raise. Every day, he worked in the fields.
Tell me, is that not confusing?

Confusing! Extremely confusing. No one could understand what the hell Old Dou had been thinking.

The ten goddesses all agreed that this was indeed extremely confusing, leaving them utterly bewildered.

Even Qiang Wei wanted to pry open her own Old Dou's head and see what sort of structure was inside. How could he do something so bewilderingly foolish?

"No wonder his impression of Old Dou is so poor. With actions like these, it really is impossible to feel any goodwill toward him."

Qi Lin had learned a great many things this time, and her opinion of Old Dou had fallen even further.

At the same time, she couldn't help thinking more deeply about the conspiracy theories Yun Zhao had mentioned earlier.

It had to be said that many things did indeed reek of something fishy.

Qi Lin couldn't accept the future of Earth being placed in the hands of someone like this. She also wondered what the higher-ups were like. Was there really not a single person who could see through all these twists and turns? Or had the higher-ups already been infiltrated by the Deno Remnants over the past thousand years? Or perhaps they had some unavoidable difficulties that forced them to compromise?

"I never imagined that the world I'd lived in for so long had so many hidden twists and turns behind the scenes."
