It's already 2026, how can we still talk about having many children and having many blessings?

After hanging up the phone, since it was still early, Zhao Siman suggested taking a walk on the Ningbo University campus.

"I have something to do today, so I'll take you there. You can have fun on your own."

Chen Mo escorted them to the gate of Ningda University and watched them walk into the school before turning around and leaving.

He had to find a seventh son.

The reward this offspring brought him was incredible.

God-level culinary skills and the ability to become invisible.

He prayed silently: Please don't let it be someone I know, please don't let it come from a troublesome family.

He opened the offspring map and was surprised by the location of the flashing red dot.

North of Yunling.

That's another area in Ningcheng with very high housing prices, a relatively young and affluent neighborhood.

If Cuihu Road is the affluent area of ​​family circles, then Yunling North is where tech upstarts and well-known celebrities from the entertainment industry gather.

Moreover, it's close to Ningcheng Oxygen Bar and Yunqingshan, a 5A-level scenic area.

An hour later, Chen Mo arrived at Yunling North.

There were noticeably more trees on both sides of the road than in the city center, and the air felt much fresher.

The distant Yunqing Mountains stretch endlessly, their peaks shrouded in a thin mist—it's beautiful.

He turned onto a tree-lined road, and the navigation showed that his destination was just ahead.

The residential complex is called Yinshan Shangfu.

The entrance is a black wrought iron gate, with neatly trimmed ornamental trees planted on both sides.

The security guard, dressed in uniform and standing ramrod straight, stepped forward and gestured for him to stop his car as he approached.

"Sir, which building are you going to? Do you have an appointment?"

"I came to see the house without an appointment."

The security guard looked him up and down, his gaze lingering on his BYD Han for a moment. Although his tone was polite and not sarcastic, there was a clear sense of distance between them.

"Sir, this is a private residential area. Without a homeowner's guidance or an appointment, outside vehicles are not allowed to enter. You can go to the sales office for more information."

Chen Mo parked his car in the visitor parking space next to the property and walked to the sales office.

The sales office is located to the right of the main gate of the residential complex. It is a glass building that looks very modern.

As soon as I entered, a woman wearing a beige suit dress and light makeup greeted me.

"Hello sir, welcome to Yinshan Shangfu. I am Su Ran, your sales consultant."

"I want to look at houses, large single-level apartments."

"Okay, this way please."

Su Ran handed him a bottle of water and led him inside, explaining things as they went…

Chen Mo didn't care to listen; he was there to find his child.

"Just take me to see it."

Su Ran said she would take him to see the model apartment, but he immediately said he would look at the community environment first.

Actually, we were heading in the direction of the offspring map, and soon we arrived at Building 8.

[Ding dong. 】

[Child's biological mother: Chi Fanghua, 36 years old, overall score 96...]

[Offspring's gender: Female.]

[Date of birth: February 4th.]

Holy crap?

36 years old, rating 96?

Taller than Jiang Xue?

Moreover, IQ accounts for the highest percentage of the overall score.

Good guy.

A highly intelligent and beautiful woman went to the hospital to use his seed?

He couldn't believe it no matter how he thought about it.

Could it be the power of the system at work?

He looked at the floors of Building 8, then at Su Ran.

Which floors in Building 8 are still unsold?

Su Ran checked her phone. "1801 is still available, 360 square meters, total price is about 1600 million."

I went up and took a look, and it's really nice. The apartment layout is good, the view is good, and the location is good. It's definitely a popular type of property and suitable for investment.

He still has a few hundred million, so he should buy it.

The fact that the child's mother lives here, and that she can be nearby, is itself a valuable resource.

His high-end jade pieces also need this kind of buyer.

"Full payment, let's complete the formalities."

Su Ran looked up at him, her eyes filled with disbelief.

"Sir, aren't you... going to look at other apartment types?"

"This is the one."

Su Ran took a deep breath, a bright smile on her face, and looked at Chen Mo in surprise.

[My God, this person viewed the house for less than twenty minutes and bought it in full? Who is this person? We need to maintain close relationships with people like this...]

She quickly led Chen Mo back to the sales office, where the contract, card swiping, and signing were all completed in one go.

"Mr. Chen, you are the most straightforward customer I have ever met."

Su Ran handed over the room key and room card with both hands.

"Just give me the key, I'll go up and take a look myself."

Chen Mo stayed in 1801 until evening.

He kept an eye on the area downstairs; the red dot indicating the location of the offspring never left.

However, his X-ray vision couldn't see through so many floors to the child's mother.

This building has one apartment per floor, and you have to swipe a card in the elevator to go to the corresponding floor.

Forget it, I'm not waiting anymore.

There will be plenty of opportunities in the future.

He was just really curious: who was the mother of this child? She was a stunningly beautiful woman with a high IQ. How gorgeous must she be?

He went down to the underground parking lot, and at that moment, Gu Qingyao called.

"Chen Mo, can you come out tomorrow? I need your help with something."

"What is it?"

"I'm going to the full moon celebration for a big shot's daughter, and I need a male companion. By the way, could you have your master carve a jade piece for me as a gift?"

Chen Mo felt a pang of unease whenever he heard the words "full moon banquet."

A big shot's full moon celebration?

He glanced upstairs.

Could it be such a coincidence?

"Okay, tell me your requirements for the jade carving."

"The other party is a big shot in investment banking in Shanghai, and his wife is a tech tycoon in Ningcheng with a net worth of billions. What would be a good gift for their daughter's one-month celebration?"

Chen Mo thought for a moment.

"Let's make a peace lock, with a small abacus carved on it, inscribed with 'wise and clever,' which means that the daughter of someone who is good at calculations and is intelligent and quick-witted is suitable for someone who works in the technology industry."

"Okay! This is it. Ask your master to help. I'll cover the materials and labor costs."

"Okay, see you tomorrow."

He glanced upstairs again.

Damn, a tech upstart?

No way?

But how could a bigwig in Shanghai's investment banking industry possibly be associated with him?

After hanging up the phone, Chen Mo drove back to Sunshine City.

I called Zhang Yan, and he said he would arrive around nine o'clock.

He waited at the entrance of the residential area for half an hour before Zhang Yan's car arrived.

Zhang Yan got out of the driver's seat, looking completely drained.

His eyes were bloodshot, his eye bags were dark, his clothes were wrinkled, and the top two buttons of his collar were undone, revealing his tanned neck.

But he seemed a bit overly excited.

"Brother Yan, have you not slept for days?"

"I drove back from Fanggang last night and didn't arrive until 3 a.m. This morning I went to Xiangsi Lake Residence and have been busy until now."

Zhang Yan rubbed his temples. "But it's okay, I'm used to it."

"What would you like to eat?"

"Anything is fine, even a roadside stall."

"No way! Let's go to that late-night snack shop, get a private room, and have something good to eat."

Upon entering the late-night snack shop, Chen Mo requested a small private room and ordered grilled oysters, stir-fried snails, salt and pepper mantis shrimp, and a pot of seafood porridge.

Before the food arrived, Zhang Yan looked at the word "oysters" on the menu, a hint of melancholy flashing in his eyes.

[Sigh, what's the point of eating all this? This is such an unspeakable problem...]

Chen Mo's heart skipped a beat.

His hatred for Hanzhou deepened even further.

Zhang Yan considered him a friend, which is why he shared such private matters with him.

However, the other party turned out to be Zhao Yifei's accomplice.

He looked at Zhang Yan, wondering how to start the conversation without arousing suspicion.
