I Can Infinitely Synthesize Transcendent Genes

“I’m sorry….”

Sun Ruofan bit her lip, speaking somewhat cautiously, “I didn’t know Uncle Qin would do that. At that time, my dad had asked him to consider driving you home, but he took it upon himself to say things he shouldn’t have said…. My dad has fired him, and if anything he said made you feel uncomfortable, I apologize…. Also, about your family situation, my dad said he could offer job opportunities to your uncle and aunt….”

Pei Jinye looked up at her calmly and said, “I appreciate the thought, but there’s no need to worry about my family. I indeed come from a very ordinary family, but I’ve never felt inferior about my status, so there’s no need for you to tiptoe around me as if you might hurt my feelings. Also, if I had saved you for a reward… honestly, it would have been easier to just kidnap you.”

Sun Ruofan was taken aback, then said somewhat embarrassedly, “I’m sorry, I thought too much.”

Pei Jinye shook his head, unconcerned, “You did think too much, but is there anything else? If not, I’ll be off to practice.”

Sun Ruofan quickly asked, “Do you have time this week? I would like to invite you to dinner.”

Pei Jinye looked at her and slowly shook his head, “Sorry, I want to spend more time on my practice lately.”

Sun Ruofan’s hopeful eyes suddenly dimmed.

She forced a smile, “It’s… it’s okay.”

Pei Jinye sighed internally, hesitated for a moment, but still said, “Sun Ruofan,”

“Yes?” Sun Ruofan suddenly looked up again, apparently hopeful.

Pei Jinye seriously said, “You’re a good girl, very pure, and… cute. You’re well-read and sensible, you know your limits, so I believe your future will certainly be bright. You really shouldn’t waste your time on meaningless things.”

Sun Ruofan’s face turned red in an instant.

“Are… are you confessing to me?”

“Huh?”

A question mark slowly appeared on Pei Jinye’s forehead, and he was momentarily stunned.

Girl, did you not hear a single word of what I just said?

Sun Ruofan, looking down with her toes touching each other, shyly said, “My dad doesn’t allow me to date early… Student Pei, you are also very outstanding, really. All the best to you, I won’t disturb you anymore.”

After saying that, like a bashful quail, she hurriedly left the scene.

Pei Jinye, standing amidst the chaos of the wind, couldn’t help pulling at the corner of his mouth.

“She really is someone with no worries about food or clothes.”

Shaking his head, he didn’t dwell on it.

Pei Jinye turned and headed towards the back mountain, immersing himself completely in his training.

Now was not the time to talk about relationships or resources.

They were all just kids, without any power of their own, still dependent on their parents’ whims, what resources could they talk about?

Pei Jinye was straightforward, but he was not foolish.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to stay safe in the Old Gods Association, and even thrive, now having advanced from being an underling of Black Shark to an independent operator.

Not far away.

Several members watched Sun Ruofan leave, whispering to each other in suspicion.

“Since when did Sun Ruofan become so close with Pei Jinye?”

“Does Fang Tianjian know about this? I’ve heard he’s been chasing Sun Ruofan for two months, and she hasn’t agreed to him. Did this guy with the surname Pei win her over just like that?”

“Nonsense, if he really won her over, do you think Pei Jinye would still be able to stay in the clubhouse? Sun Ruofan’s dad is no saint; that’s why even after being rejected, Fang Tianjian didn’t dare to make a scene.”

“Enough, stop talking. If Old Fang hears this, he’ll get moody again, which is a headache.”

At the back mountain.

“You okay?”

Tang Huoyang stopped the act of striking the ironwood post and leaned in curiously.

“What could be wrong?” Pei Jinye walked closer, shaking his head.

Tang Huoyang paused, then whispered softly, “For that girl to come find you alone and talk about this, it shows she’s not a bad person and is quite forthright.”

Pei Jinye gave him a glance and threw a punch at the post.

Tang Huoyang sighed softly.

And punched the post as well.

“This wood is damn hard!”

Pei Jinye’s expression darkened.

Who’s being suggestive now!!!

Entrance of the Bronze Association.

The female driver looked at her young lady with confusion as she saw her reddened face and quick steps as she rushed out and quickly stepped forward to ask, “Miss, are you alright?”

“How many kids? What do you mean, ‘how many kids’?” Sun Ruofan looked around, bewildered.

The female driver was even more confused, asking cautiously, “What ‘how many kids’?”

Sun Ruofan realized what had happened, her face turning even redder. She quickly dove into the car and hugged her legs, covering her face.

Time flew by, and the reddish glow that stretched for tens of miles across the sky disappeared in a blink.

“Let’s go, shall we have dinner? It’s on me,” Tang Huoyang invited.

Pei Jinye wiped his face and nodded, “Let’s have ferocious beast meat.”

Tang Huoyang laughed heartily, “You really don’t let me save any money, do you?”

“Save what? My Brother Yang is destined to be the richest man in the Federation,” Jinye said.

“Hahaha, I insist!”

An hour later, at the entrance of a restaurant.

“How about we go for a foot massage after this?” Tang Huoyang asked, standing in front of the car.

Pei Jinye shook his head, “No, I need to head home.”

He had used up all the cultivation resources in his rented apartment and needed to go back to get more.

“Come on, I’ll drive you.”

“Then I won’t be polite,” Jinye accepted.

“Polite, my ass.”

“Brother Yang, you’re truly crude.”

“Screw it, you’re the one playing the saint, huh!”

The two started to roughhouse for a bit.

At this moment, the cover of nightfall enveloped Da Peng City, bustling with traffic.

The towering building of Sky God International projected dazzling advertisements featuring virtual celebrities.

Inside a nearby hotel.

The doors and windows were tightly closed.

“Old Eighteen personally led the team, and yet they failed to catch three people, now we from the Mask Association are exposed… Mad, I said the mission involving Qi Hengtian’s daughter was fishy!”

A man with a beard fiercely pounded the table.

Around him, over a dozen figures crouched on beds, chairs, and on the floor.

A young man playing with a dagger on a bed, his curly hair tinged with a streak of white, spoke sinisterly, “I heard Old Eighteen got taken down by a high school student?”

“Old Eighteen is not so incompetent as to not handle a high school student, right?” someone exclaimed in disbelief.

“Here, this is the information on that kid.”

The white-haired young man took the documents, flipping through them casually, and looked up, somewhat surprised, “This ordinary?”

The other person shrugged, “That’s why I can’t wrap my head around it. How on earth did Old Eighteen fail?”

The white-haired young man tossed Pei Jinye’s information onto the table, looked up, and locked eyes with an elder across from him. He was the boss of the Mask Association, known by the moniker “Sea Boss.”

“Where are you off to?” Sea Boss asked in a deep voice, “The timing and route planned for this assassination were flawless; we can only say Old Eighteen had bad luck.”

The white-haired young man shook his head, “I’ve got nothing else to do; I might as well get some fresh air.”

Sea Boss watched his departing figure, frowning in silence.

Someone beside him asked, “Sea Boss, what do we do next?”

Sea Boss turned back, his voice grave, “Old Eighteen still doesn’t know we’ve changed locations. Let’s lay low for tonight… We’ll talk about the rest tomorrow.”
