184: Chapter 184: The Naming Rights to the Rocket 184: Chapter 184: The Naming Rights to the Rocket New Year’s Day.
As the saying goes, “New year, new beginnings,” Xiao Fei made a point of getting up extra early.
Getting dressed, brushing his teeth.
After glancing at his still-sleeping wife and three children, Xiao Fei went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast for the entire family.
Back in Chuanyu, the amount of breakfast he had to prepare was larger than usual.
Besides his wife and kids, he also had to prepare breakfast for both sets of parents.
Opportunities like this were rare—just a handful of tis in an entire year.
Still, Xiao Fei was more than happy to do what he could for his family.
Before breakfast was done, Mrs.
Tang had already gotten up.
Hearing the sounds from the kitchen, she walked over and saw Xiao Fei busy at work.
“Mom, why not sleep a little longer?”
“I’m used to waking up early.
Once the clock hits a certain ti, I can’t stay asleep.”
As she said this, Mrs.
Tang watched the busy Xiao Fei with an increasingly satisfied look.
Mrs.
Tang couldn’t find a single fault with this son-in-law.
He’s more than capable, deeply loving toward her daughter and her grandchildren, and never gets into trouble with other won.
The only thing that worried Mrs.
Tang was perhaps that Xiao Fei was too young.
He’s several years younger than her daughter, Tang Yuxin.
When Xiao Fei turns thirty-five—the peak of a man’s charm—Tang Yuxin will already be forty.
Will Xiao Fei still remain devoted to her daughter at that ti?
Forget it—thinking about such things now is pointless.
Shaking her head, Mrs.
Tang left the kitchen.
anwhile, Xiao Fei, having prepared breakfast, returned to the bedroom just as the little ones began waking up one after the other.
“Papa…”
Seeing Xiao Fei walk in, the babies imdiately called out.
Xiao Fei picked the little ones up from the crib and began dressing them.
During this process, Da Bao gently tugged at Xiao Fei’s hand.
“Papa…”
“Hmm?
What’s wrong, Da Bao?”
Da Bao hesitated a bit.
“I… I need to pee…”
Xiao Fei froze for a mont, then suddenly realized.
This was Da Bao’s first ti actively saying he needed to go to the bathroom!
From the ti the kids were born until now, they had always been wearing diapers.
Because their nervous systems weren’t fully developed, they couldn’t control their bladder or bowel movents, often going in their pants—hence the necessity of diapers.
It had always been like this for the little ones.
But this ti, Da Bao had spoken up.
Xiao Fei quickly removed Da Bao’s diaper and found that he hadn’t peed yet.
“Da Bao is amazing, you can tell when you need to pee now.”
Overjoyed, Xiao Fei carried Da Bao to the bathroom, opened the toilet lid, and held him over the bowl.
Da Bao felt very shy.
It was his first ti doing this, and after a long while, he still couldn’t pee, eventually looking a bit frustrated.
Xiao Fei patiently waited without the slightest irritation, continuing to encourage Da Bao.
When children start asking to use the toilet for the first ti, parents will inevitably spend a lot of ti helping them at first.
After all, little ones need ti to get used to it.
Finally, Da Bao began to pee.
Once he finished, Xiao Fei cleaned Da Bao up, dressed him, and put him back.
He patted Da Bao’s head and said to Er Bao and Sanbao, “Er Bao, Sanbao, look at Da Bao—now he tells us when he needs to pee or poop.
You should do the sa, okay?”
The little ones nodded their tiny heads in determined agreent!
[Congratulations, host, for achieving the ‘First Ti Helping Your Child Pee’ milestone!]
[Reward: 22% equity in Spacey Group!]
[Note: Since Da Bao has a dream of flying to the heavens, how can a father who wants to help him achieve it not have a stake in the world’s largest private aerospace firm?]
Xiao Fei: “…Huh?”
So Da Bao’s dream of flying is officially confird by the system now?
Also… Spacey, while technically a private group, has deep collaborations with Lighthouse Country’s governnt.
Such an important entity—why would their officials allow a foreigner like him to gain shares?!
Are you kidding ?
But thinking about it more closely, since even Morgan Stanley—a critical Wall Street institution tied to the lifeblood of Lighthouse Country—had been infiltrated by his system, stretching a hand into Spacey doesn’t seem all that impossible?
As Xiao Fei mulled over these thoughts, his phone suddenly rang.
Xiao Fei pulled it out and saw an unfamiliar number.
The caller was from across the shore.
Narrowing his eyes, Xiao Fei stepped out of the bedroom and answered the call.
“Hello?”
[Oh!
Xiao!
My best friend!
I’ve received your investnt!
Thank you for helping realize my dream of emigrating to Mars and dying there!]
As soon as the call connected, an exceptionally over-the-top voice ca from the other end.
Xiao Fei raised an eyebrow.
Emigrating to Mars and dying there?
Ha… Musk.
He imdiately replied in fluent English, “No need to thank .
I got what I wanted out of it too.”
[Hahaha… Spacey will definitely exceed your expectations, my friend.
Now that you’re the second-largest shareholder after , I’ve decided to celebrate by launching a rocket nad after you.
How does that sound?]
Xiao Fei’s interest was piqued.
But naming it after him?
“That’s a good idea, but how about naming it after my son instead?”
[Your baby?
Xiao, if I rember correctly, your baby just turned one, right?
I haven’t had the chance to send a gift yet… In that case, how about naming the rocket as my gift to him?]
No wonder Musk was soone who could convince not just Wall Street but the entire world to pour their money into his ventures.
Not a single thing was given away in that conversation.
Xiao Fei didn’t mind.
After all, every bit of this had been a freebie courtesy of the system.
“That’s a great idea, Mr.
Musk…”
[Just call Musk, Xiao.
We’ve known each other for years, haven’t we?
There’s no need to be so formal.]
What kind of mories had the system implanted in Musk’s head?
How did they suddenly know each other for years?
[Xiao, the rocket launch is happening in half a month.
I hope you’ll bring your family to attend in person!]
“Of course, I’ll be there.”
Xiao Fei was intrigued by the event.
Besides, bringing Tang Yuxin and the kids abroad for a little vacation didn’t sound bad—especially with a rocket launch thrown in for good asure.
Xiao Fei’s gaze fell back on Da Bao in the bedroom.
Little one, your dream of flying to the heavens—Daddy will make sure it cos true.
Though, you probably don’t even fully understand what your dream is yet.
As if sensing his father’s thoughts, Da Bao raised his head as Xiao Fei looked over.
“Papa…!”
The little one offered Xiao Fei a big, cheerful smile.
