Chapter 31 – Hiding from the World, Secretly Researching Domestic 0.1nm Semiconductor Technology!
When Zheng Wanqing said that, Ye Fei silently cursed in his heart: This sister-in-law really has a big mouth!
Because of his mission, Ye Fei definitely couldn’t admit anything.
As long as there was no evidence—just suspicion and speculation—the mission wasn’t considered failed!
At most, it was in a high-risk state.
Whether he could turn danger into safety now depended entirely on his acting skills.
But if he confessed himself?
He’d be out of the game in a heartbeat!
So he absolutely could not admit it—no matter what!
But Ye Fei didn’t want to lie to Zheng Wanqing either.
So he said, “Wife, can you give me a few more days on this question? I promise you, in three to five days, I’ll give you a full explanation. But not right now.”
Zheng Wanqing nodded. “Okay, no problem! Hubby, what I want to tell you is—whether you’re really poor or just pretending, no matter what, it doesn’t change how much I like you!”
“Besides, you’re already the father of our little baby!”
“No matter what, I’ll always stay by your side. I’ll always like you!”
Zheng Wanqing giggled. “Look, it’s that beef noodle stall up ahead! Lucky they’re still open at this hour!”
“Boss lady, two bowls of beef noodles! One large, one small.”
“Alright! Two bowls of beef noodles, coming right up!”
They sat at the stall, slurping noodles around 10 PM.
Maybe this is what married life looks like: not full of drama, but full of sweetness and warmth.
After finishing their late-night snack, Ye Fei took Zheng Wanqing to a hotel.
It was too late—the school gates had already closed, so they had to stay out.
Ye Fei used to cuddle her to sleep.
But now that she was pregnant with his child, she seemed different.
She curled up like a little kitten in his arms, breathing softly in her sleep—gentle, quiet, and beautiful.
Ye Fei kissed her lightly on the cheek.
“Goodnight, Mrs. Ye.”
“Goodnight, little princess who hasn’t been born yet.”
“Goodnight, beautiful world.”
The night passed.
Early the next morning, they went to class.
Their schedules were packed, and with Zheng Wanqing’s graduation exam only four months away, they focused hard on school.
Over the next few days, aside from meals and classes, they just watched movies and went shopping.
Life was plain, but filled with love and tenderness.
A week passed.
Ye Fei let out a deep breath.
System, submit mission.
[Ding! Mission submitted successfully. You have successfully hidden your identity as the boss of Qingteng Bar.]
[Mission complete. Congratulations! Reward unlocked: Domestic 0.1nm semiconductor chip technology.]
Holy crap!
This reward was massive!
Not shares or cash.
But technology!
Semiconductor technology!
Currently, China’s tech firms face huge risks of being choked by foreign circuit companies.
Because domestic semiconductor technology just wasn’t mature enough yet.
Supply disruptions were a regular threat!
Too much reliance on foreign companies had slowed local development.
Even with government policies supporting domestic semiconductors, progress was still slow.
Right now, Chinese companies have achieved 7nm technology.
Still far behind global leaders.
But not anymore!
Ye Fei now possessed 0.1nm domestic semiconductor chip technology.
That’s already the absolute physical limit of chip production!
And not just the limit—the limit of the limit!
Theoretical limit is 0.2nm.
Even the top-tier countries in Europe and America couldn’t reach it.
Taiwan’s TSMC is developing 1nm tech, but even that’s miles from 0.1nm!
Experts estimate real breakthroughs in 0.1nm won’t happen until after 2030.
But Ye Fei already had it.
However, without a matching lithography machine for 0.1nm chips?
Useless.
[Ding! New mission issued: Establish a domestic semiconductor company and recruit over 100 employees.]
[Mission reward: Domestic 0.1nm chip lithography machine technology.]
[Ding! Main Mission 2 activated: Hide the truth from the world and secretly develop and manufacture 0.1nm domestic chips.]
[Hidden period: One year.]
Start a company? Hire over 100 staff?
That would take massive investment!
But that was fine. Besides the 9.6 million in cash still in hand, Ye Fei had Qingteng Bar—a continuous source of income.
Still, it wasn’t enough.
He needed more. A lot more!
If successful, the fortune it could create would be immeasurable!
And once 0.1nm chips hit the market?
The whole world would be shaken!
And best of all—they’d be made in China!
“Hubby?”
Zheng Wanqing’s puzzled voice suddenly came from beside him.
