Grant You Ten Years of Youth

Bei Jiajia watched Bei Wei's expression with a smile, and then burst into laughter.

"Right... Could it be that you two are spending too little time together each time, lacking consistency...? There's only hope if it's consistent."

"No way!" Bei Wei blushed almost imperceptibly. "You know he's very busy... flying all over the world, but surely he hasn't won even once in all these years?"

"It can't be..." Bei Jiajia fell into deep thought.

Judging from Zhang Yang's overwhelming masculine charm, surely there shouldn't be a problem with his sperm, right? Could it be... that being of noble birth, it's destined that having his offspring is something that can't be forced or sought after?

Is it purely up to fate?

The two were chatting when suddenly, Bei Wei's phone rang.

She picked it up and took a look, and her face immediately lit up with joy.

"Zhang Yang is back!"

"Huh? Hurry up, hurry up!" The two of them immediately started scrambling around.

Zhang Yang now holds a special status and his demeanor has become increasingly grand and noble. Even those close to Zhang Yang find it difficult to treat him with a calm and composed attitude.

A moment later, Bei Jiajia accompanied Bei Wei to wait by the roadside until a Maybach 62S with consecutive yellow license plates quietly stopped in front of them.

"Go ahead, I won't go up," Bei Jiajia said, showing her good judgment.

It was alright in the early years, but now, I still have the necessary insight and awareness. In short, I can no longer be so careless and call him "brother-in-law" without any sense of distance.

"Okay, see you later." Bei Wei nodded, waved goodbye to Bei Jiajia, and got into the car.

Soon, the Maybach 62S left the spot.

Bei Jiajia stood there, staring blankly at the car as it drove away until it disappeared from sight, before she came back to her senses.

She shook her head, smiled gently, and walked towards her car in the distance.

Her career in Magic City naturally benefited a lot from Zhang Yang's influence. In fact, Zhang Yang didn't even need to step forward; she just spent time with Bei Wei and occasionally got to know a group of Shanghai's rich and powerful men and women who called themselves Zhang Yang's younger brothers and sisters.

Then, everything went smoothly.

··

"Was that Bei Jiajia just now?" Zhang Yang asked with a smile, sitting in the back row with his arm around Bei Wei.

He's busy with his career these days and doesn't have much personal time, so he rarely sees Bei Wei. Come to think of it, he hasn't seen Bei Jiajia in a very, very long time.

She now seems to know how to maintain boundaries and keep her distance.

Upon first meeting her, Bei Jiajia sported a neat, short bob, and her overall demeanor and appearance had matured considerably. The innocent and carefree Bei Jiajia from years ago, who used to pester him to call her "brother-in-law," was gone forever.

"She's doing very well in her small business now, and she can't always act like an eighteen-year-old girl; it's time for her to grow up," Bei Wei said with a smile. "Her parents are almost frantic with worry, but they're not in a hurry at all about her personal life."

"Marriage isn't a necessity, and love... you only know it exists when you meet it; you can't rush it." Zhang Yang nodded and said, "Actually, there's no need to rush."

"Love," Bei Wei said, putting her arm around Zhang Yang's neck, "God knows how her standards have gotten so high. I think... you're mainly responsible."

"What does this have to do with me?" Zhang Yang said, amused.

"With you as a reference, even if she lowers her standards for a partner by a hundred or a thousand times, she'll still be hard-pressed to find one in the world... Then she can say that her requirements are already very low," Bei Wei said.

"Are you subtly flattering me with those words?" Zhang Yang chuckled. "You're getting nicer and nicer with your words. Come on, let your husband spoil you."

Bei Wei gave a soft reproachful look and snuggled into Zhang Yang's arms.

Instead of heading towards Lakeville Regency, the car went straight to the Tan Palace.

Tan Palace is very famous and is considered one of the most luxurious mansions in Magic City. Ever since he unlocked this villa in the Tan Palace from the system upgrade gift pack, he has naturally spent a lot of money on renovations and occasionally stays here.

As for the apartment at COFCO, I've been staying there less often lately.

His current status is what it is; living a secluded life and being out of reach of ordinary people is in line with his current persona. If he were still living at COFCO, some newly rich and powerful people would inevitably dare to come and disturb him.

This manor house in the Tan Palace is a magnificent estate, suitable for a large family.

The Maybach slowly drove in, where a butler and a team of housekeepers, gardeners, and chefs from the villa lined up to greet them.

They have the air of a prominent, aristocratic family.

In fact, with Zhang Yang's current level of strength, all those powerful families are nothing but dirt chickens and dogs in his eyes. The so-called powerful families are nothing more than opportunists who take advantage of the times to seize their own interests.

He, however, was the one destined to shape the course of history.

Good afternoon, Mr. Zhang and Mrs. Zhang.

The impeccably polite English butler bowed and opened the door with the utmost gentlemanly grace.

Zhang Yang took Bei Wei's hand and they got out of the car together, standing in the manor that covered several thousand square meters.

"When I'm not in Magic City, you can come and stay anytime. Just treat this place as your home," Zhang Yang said casually.

The mansion only held special significance for him in his early years.

As for now... it's just a residential property now, there's no need to go into detail about how big it is, how many rooms it has, what kind of swimming pool it has, how luxurious and impressive it is... all of this is meaningful to ordinary wealthy people, but for him, a business tycoon with wealth comparable to a country, a trendsetter of the times, it's simply laughable.

In terms of extravagance, he even bought a private island, covering an area of one square kilometer, where everything is extremely luxurious, leaving so-called mansions far behind.

"I'm still more used to living there," Bei Wei said. "This place is too big, and it feels really lonely without you here... It's more suitable for a large family to live here."

"A large family?" Zhang Yang put his arm around Bei Wei's waist and laughed, "There will be."

I don't know where we got to, but Bei Wei blinked and suddenly fell silent.

Zhang Yang glanced at Bei Wei but didn't say anything more.

In the evening, the two had dinner together.

Even if you're rich, you don't have to eat delicacies every meal. Eating delicacies at every meal is just for the emperor. Dinner is nothing more than seasonal fresh vegetables, stir-fries, and a pot of fish maw and free-range chicken soup.

"It feels like just yesterday I was turning thirty," Bei Wei remarked casually, stirring her soup spoon gently.

"Anxious about your age?" Zhang Yang smiled. "Saying you're eighteen wouldn't be a problem, would it?"

"No way... Twenty-eight is twenty-eight. How could I possibly call myself an eighteen-year-old girl?" Bei Wei said. "Actually, I'm not anxious about my age."

Bei Wei actually looks quite youthful.

Her fair skin already made her look younger, and besides, she was only twenty-eight. She looked like a young girl full of collagen, so she was far from being at the age where she needed to worry about her age.

"If you're not anxious about your age, then what are you lamenting about here?" Zhang Yang asked knowingly. "What... do you want children?"

"I knew I couldn't hide it from you." Bei Wei lowered her eyes, too embarrassed to look up. "But... why hasn't it happened yet?"

She sighed softly.

Zhang Yang simply blinked.

Of course not... As long as he doesn't loosen the restrictions, she can't possibly get pregnant.

It's just that no one knows this secret.

Even if you go to a reproductive medicine center for testing, they still can't detect any problems.

"Don't worry, it just means the time isn't right yet. Everything will be alright when it is," Zhang Yang comforted him. "It's not that it won't come, it's just that the time hasn't come yet."

"I hope I can get pregnant before I turn thirty," Bei Wei said softly.

Zhang Yang didn't say anything.

No woman is indifferent to her age. Bei Wei keeps saying she doesn't have age anxiety, but every woman is quite sensitive to the word "thirty".

Unlike boys.

For men, thirty is the beginning of true maturity.

As night fell, the two, reunited after a long separation, naturally engaged in a passionate and intimate exchange, pouring out their hearts to each other.

In the middle of the night, Bei Wei nestled sweetly in Zhang Yang's arms, sleeping soundly.

"Although the child will have to wait, I can truly give you another ten years of youth." Zhang Yang smiled as he looked at Bei Wei in his arms, gently pulled his arm out of her black hair, and then got up and walked to the water glass next to him.

A moment later, an anti-aging serum was poured in.

The pale blue liquid quickly mixed with water upon contact, becoming transparent.

This tiny vial of medicine can turn back ten years of one's life. Such value cannot be measured in money.

Zhang Yang had no intention of using it to make a profit.

Everything is for my own use.

He currently has a lifespan of two hundred years, and will live for hundreds more in the future. Although he doesn't know how long the people around him will stay with him, the longer the better.

This was an obsession, and also his wish.

"Here, have some water." Zhang Yang gently lifted Bei Wei's head and brought the water glass to her lips.

"Hmm..." Bei Wei murmured softly, subconsciously drinking the water. "Mmm... it's a little sweet."

She hummed unconsciously, her cheeks flushing slightly, and she slept even more soundly. A change, beginning from this moment, would slowly take place, directly bringing her physical condition back to that of ten years ago.

Zhang Yang smiled and let Bei Wei continue sleeping. Then, he went to the terrace by himself.

A cool night breeze blew, and the manor's fountains and gardens, bathed in the tranquil night sky, exuded a peaceful and beautiful atmosphere.

Zhang Yang looked up at the sky, his gaze seemingly piercing through the heavens and looking towards the boundless universe.

"I wonder what the future holds."

··

The next morning, when Bei Wei got up, she felt lightheaded all over.

"I hope I don't catch a cold," she muttered to herself, then, thinking about how she hadn't worn any clothes last night and had been in such a daze, her face flushed slightly.

However, if it were an illness, there would be no feeling of weakness or sluggishness, but rather a lightness as if one were a swallow. A simple jump in place would feel like flying.

"Honey." She saw Zhang Yang's back as he stood by the window, and smiled as she hugged him. "Awake so early?"

"I woke up early." Zhang Yang smiled and turned around to look at Bei Wei in front of him.

Yes, fair skin with a rosy glow, radiating youthful energy, truly a dreamlike return to eighteen.

So this is what it's like to be this sweet at eighteen?

Hiss!

He immediately felt a long-lost sense of novelty.

It's not that he's fickle; it's just that it's a man's nature. Even he can't help but be attracted by the youthful energy of an eighteen-year-old.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Bei Wei was secretly delighted.

"You seem to have become younger overnight; the ancients were right," Zhang Yang said with a smile. "My efforts last night were worthwhile..."

"What's with all this embarrassing talk so early in the morning?" Bei Wei gently covered Zhang Yang's mouth, assuming he was just saying something intimate between a boyfriend and girlfriend.

"You don't believe me?" Zhang Yang asked.

"Oh, believe it or not, my husband's... it has miraculous effects, it can make me young again, okay?" Bei Wei said coquettishly, "But, I do feel like something's different."

From twenty-eight to eighteen.

Naturally, it's different everywhere.

Zhang Yang smiled and pushed Bei Wei to the mirror, then gestured for her to look in the mirror.

"Come, take a look."

Bei Wei was puzzled and looked in the mirror.

The next second, she instantly covered her mouth.

"Is this me?"

Where did this fairy come from in the mirror?

This skin, these lips and teeth, so much collagen, this overwhelming youthful energy!

"Do you believe me now?" Zhang Yang said. "Go change into your school uniform and say you're eighteen. Who wouldn't believe you?"

Bei Wei pursed her lips, staring blankly at herself in the mirror.

She didn't know how much time had passed when she suddenly cheered, turned around, wrapped her legs around Zhang Yang's waist, and kissed him.

"Honey, I believe you now."

"What do you believe me for? Say it..."

"Do I really have to say it?" Bei Wei asked shyly, her cheeks flushed.

"Speak."

"Mmm... Honey, please, really feel what I was like at eighteen."

The fact that Bei Wei was in the physical condition of an eighteen-year-old naturally gave Zhang Yang a fresh feeling of a budding flower and tender new shoots.

So much so that this time, he and Bei Wei stayed in the Tan Palace for several days without leaving the premises.

Bei Wei wondered if this change in her body was a blessing from heaven, or a premonition—a premonition that she... might really be experiencing something like this.

Look into the sweet little girl's hopeful eyes.

Several times, Zhang Yang hesitated, thinking about whether to loosen the restrictions or give it a try.

But ultimately, they are the ones who achieve great things.

His softening of heart lasted only a moment; soon, he hardened his heart again.

No rush...

Keep up the good work.

Cloud Sea Technology is currently experiencing a very positive situation, and its business is booming.

It may seem like they are lying low now, but this is the eve of accumulating strength, the very eve of a true explosion. Once that groundbreaking product is launched, it will surely cause a sensation.

Becoming the world's number one in market capitalization is just around the corner.

On that day, with the advanced gene serum in hand, he felt like he owned the world. Just like he said, it was time to take a good rest and return to his own life.

A few days later, Zhang Yang embarked on his journey once again.

The next major event, naturally, is just one more thing: Cloud Sea Technology's next-generation groundbreaking product, a key work that marks the true entry into the virtual reality era.

For quite some time now, there has been an overwhelming amount of skepticism and doubt. One thing is certain: once the new product is released, all the criticism will be completely silenced, leaving only a collective sense of awe and surprise.

A dimensional reduction attack is no joke.

Inside the Cloud Sea Technology R&D Center.

Surrounded by a large entourage, Zhang Yang, accompanied by senior executives, inspected the research and development progress of the R&D center and arrived at the most core area.

Cloud World Project Center.

Cloud World is the name for the next generation of virtual reality products.

This project center brought together almost all of Cloud Sea Technology's elite R&D personnel, working day and night in shifts to prepare for the product's release.

Now, mass-produced machines are available.
