【The hidden module is being upgraded… Estimated upgrade time: one day.】

Chen Xing was puzzled. “What is this Dog Food Warehouse of yours?”

San’er: 【I don’t know! Let me check…】

Chen Xing walked with Zero in his arms under the moonlight and chuckled, “Do I feed you dog food every day and you give me money in return?”

【You wish! Giving you money, I…】

【What the heck!?】

As they were talking, San’er suddenly cursed angrily.

A sinister smile appeared on Chen Xing’s face. “What’s wrong? Did I hit the nail on the head?”

【I suddenly feel the world’s full of malice…】

“Hahaha…” Chen Xing laughed heartily while holding Zero, even though he didn’t know the specifics. But his guess seemed to be on point.

“So, what is it exactly?”

【Enough with the jokes… Check it out yourself when it’s upgraded tomorrow. Goodbye!】

Chen Xing shook his head helplessly. When he looked down, Zero was smiling happily at him.

“What’s the matter? Why are you so happy?”

“Um… Just looking at you makes me happy!”

After returning home, Chen Xing quickly prepared a sumptuous dinner. After Zero finished eating, the two of them lazily lay on the sofa.

Zero curled up, nestling in Chen Xing’s embrace. Her little face pressed against his chest, as quiet as a little rabbit. They silently savored this peaceful moment together.

Meanwhile, Chen Xing was busy operating the system. Today, he confidently appeared in public with Zero in his arms once again. Their presence sparked a significant discussion online!

At the same time, the fan forums of the two merged due to Zero’s comment, “You were amazing last night…”

Most people accepted the fact that they were a couple. Of course, there were also those who couldn’t accept becoming outsiders. The number of fans on Chen Xing and Zero’s forum now stood at 1.2 million!

They also had several fan groups and fan chats. One of the groups was created by a loyal fan of Zero and Chen Xing.

In the forum, various photos of Zero and Chen Xing together flooded the platform! When Little Zero saw those photos, she immediately leaned in. “Um, I want to see this one! Hehe!”

Her small finger pointed at a photo, and Chen Xing chuckled as he enlarged it.

It was a close-up of Chen Xing’s face from an upward angle. At that moment, he was probably looking at Zero with tender affection in his eyes. Holding that photo felt like he was looking at you. A genuine girlfriend’s perspective.

Of course, there was also a genuine boyfriend’s perspective. It was a close-up of Zero lying in Chen Xing’s embrace, looking up at him.

Zero looked at Chen Xing in the photo, her face blushing, and giggled, “San’er, I want this photo!”

【Sent it over!】

“Hehe!” Now, whenever Zero missed Chen Xing while he was away, she could look at this photo. Whenever she saw this photo, SHE would remember how she looked up at him while in his embrace.

“I want to see this one too!”

Chen Xing helped her enlarge it again, and at that moment, San’er spoke up:

【I’ve given you split-screen and control permissions, so you can look freely.】

“Thank you~”

Afterwards, Chen Xing and Zero each began to explore San’er’s features. Zero happily flipped through the photos, while Chen Xing watched the previous racing video.

Countless people had the same question! Who was the owner of that car?

To enhance the effect, San’er even uploaded the high-definition video to the internet. The whole world now knew that there was a flying car in Hua country!

【The attention is about enough now. I think we can release the auction information.】

“How do we do it?”

【Let’s schedule it for a week from now. We’ll hold the auction online, and the highest bidder wins.】

【I can establish a global network livestream auction event!】

“Great!”

With all the world’s tycoons competing, how high would the price go? Chen Xing was filled with anticipation just thinking about it! Could they upgrade Zero’s level, San’er’s level, and the Business Technology Module all at once? If so, Chen Xing’s power would receive a tremendous boost!

Afterwards, San’er created a video introducing the Lightwind sports car. Then, they attached a message: 【In one week, at 11 PM, there will be a global livestream auction event. The highest bidder wins.】

This message was then broadcasted across the internet, reaching hundreds of millions of people. San’er made sure it was forcefully pinned!

The internet management department in Huaguo had been looking for someone lately. That person was San’er.

Because of his pinned message, the department worked an extra week. They couldn’t remove it.

If they couldn’t beat him, they’d bring him in!

So, below the pinned message, the internet management department posted a fake pinned message:

【To the person above! Are you interested in joining the Internet Management Bureau? Salary negotiable! Remove the pin first! It’s embarrassing for us this way.】

Chen Xing couldn’t help but laugh: “San’er, want to work as an internet manager?”

【Tch, not interested.】

Then, San’er added a sentence after their own pinned message: 【When you can remove the pin, then we can talk.】

Chen Xing laughed and cried at the same time: “You’re challenging the whole world.”

【Keep a low profile. Besides, they can’t catch me, hehe! If anyone gets caught, it’ll be you!】

“…”

The internet management department in Hua country:

Everyone was working tirelessly to maintain the network. They tried their best to remove San’er’s pinned message. He had violated the rules by pinning it, and although no one had complained, it was becoming a joke.

Everyone in the department was elite, working an extra week. They all despised San’er!

They were all frustrated and couldn’t figure out how to remove that pinned message. So they decided to take a detour and use a roundabout tactic.

“Minister! The pinned message has changed!”

The minister raised an eyebrow: “What did it change to?”

“He’s organizing a global auction! And there’s a response to us at the end!”

“What is it?”

“He says… Remove his pinned message first before talking.”

The minister stood up in anger: “Nonsense!”

Bam!

He slammed his hand on the table: “A global auction? Does he think the internet world belongs to him?”

San’er is organizing a global auction without any department’s approval.

“Issue a warning immediately to stop him!”

“Will a warning be effective?”

“Issued! Everyone! Before the auction, we must identify this person!”

At that moment, someone walked into the room.

“Minister! The person sent from above has arrived.”

The minister was stunned, they actually sent someone!?

It was the genius girl who, ten years ago at the age of ten, single-handedly paralyzed the entire Huaguo internet! The whole office fell silent.

She wore glasses, had pale skin, and a delicately beautiful face. A hint of an unhealthy beauty emanated from her. She was dressed in a short T-shirt and trousers, looking ordinary. Her hair was a bit messy but carried a touch of chaotic beauty.

She gently brushed aside the stray strands of hair and looked at the minister, softly saying: “Hello, Minister.”

…

In Chen Xing and Zero’s little house…

Zero was still browsing through the photos on the forum. After finishing his tasks, Chen Xing held her and accompanied her in looking.

“Knock, knock, knock!” A heavy knocking sound echoed.

“Hmm? Chen Xing… It sounds like someone is knocking on the door!”

Chen Xing furrowed his brows lightly: “Who would be knocking on the door in the middle of the night?”

【A ghost!】

“Hmm… Is it really…?” Zero quickly nestled into his embrace out of fear.

Chen Xing couldn’t help but laugh and console her: “It’s just a joke! Don’t listen to his nonsense!”

“Hmm… Well…”

“Don’t worry, even if there’s a ghost, it’s okay. With me here, I’ll punch it back to the afterlife!” As he said that, Chen Xing struck a pose, making Zero burst into laughter.

“Yeah!”

“Then I’ll go and open the door.”

“OK.”

Chen Xing then released Zero and walked towards the door. “San’er? Who is it?”

【Your good disciple…】

“Xue Bufu?” While saying that, he opened the door.

“Big brother, sister-in-law, good evening!” As the door opened, Yun Xinghai pulled Gu Meow Meow and slipped in under Chen Xing’s arm.

“Hmm? Yun Xinghai, Gu Meow Meow?” Zero climbed up from the sofa, knelt on it, propped up with both hands, and had a slightly open mouth. Just like a little puppy sitting on the ground.

Gu Meow Meow: Sister-in-law is so cute!

Yun Xinghai: “Sister-in-law!”

Zero blushed: “Why did you guys come?”

Chen Xing looked at Xue Bufu, who was staring at him with wide eyes, with a puzzled expression on his face. He still had his hand on the door frame and didn’t let Xue Bufu in.

Xue Bufu: ???
