Chapter 254 The Superconducting Era

"Mom, can you listen to my explanation?"

"I'll give you one minute."

In the living room, Ye Xian sat on the sofa, holding back her anger.

She had waited at home the entire day just to have a video call with her future daughter-in-law. Seeing that it was almost dark and she still hadn't received her son's call, she decided to call and ask what was going on.

But before she could even ask, her son's first sentence explained everything.

Ye Fan coughed dryly, feeling guilty. "Mom, right now is the most intense period of our exam preparation. Xiao Xi and I have been completely focused on getting ready for the college entrance exam and simply haven't had any time. I know you'll definitely understand since my mom is, after all..."

"Stop, cut it out!"

Ye Xian snorted and said, "Don't try to flatter me. All I know is that you made a promise and didn't keep it. What do you have to say about that?"

"..."

Hearing the questioning voice coming from the phone, Ye Fan looked helpless.

In this matter, he was indeed at fault.

After thinking for a moment, he came up with a solution and said, "The school has announced that from June 1st, senior students will be on break. How about this? On the 1st, I will definitely let you see Xiao Xi."

"Today is the 28th, so there are still three days left. Mom, just wait a little longer, okay?"

"I suppose that's acceptable."

Hearing her son's suggestion, Ye Xian's anger subsided quite a bit. She then added, "However, after the college entrance exam, you must bring Xiao Xi to Linhai for a few days. That's what you promised. If you don't keep your word, hmph!"

The threat was more than obvious.

"Alright, alright, I'll definitely take her to Linhai."

Knowing that his mother was still upset, Ye Fan coaxed and reassured her for nearly half an hour before finally getting through the ordeal.

After hanging up the phone, Ye Fan sighed helplessly. Looking at the dimly lit living room, his expression became somewhat sentimental.

After the college entrance exam, he would have to say goodbye to this apartment. Looking at the two cherry trees, one big and one small, painted on the wall, he felt an inexplicable reluctance. This apartment carried the beginning of this life's story with Ning Xi.

Ye Fan lowered his head in thought and made a decision in his heart.

He would buy this apartment!

That way, it would become his private property. When he grew old, he could bring Ning Xi back here to reminisce—it would be quite romantic.

However, to buy this apartment, he first needed to solve the issue of funds.

The apartment wasn't large, but because of its good location—and the fact that it was in the capital of Xia Country—the price was far from cheap.

With the money he had now, buying this apartment was nothing short of a pipe dream.

But he wasn't in a rush.

Money might be difficult for others to obtain, but for someone with a system like him, it was the easiest thing in the world.

After casually making some food to fill his stomach, Ye Fan took a shower, instantly feeling refreshed.

At 7 PM, he sat down at his computer desk as usual. However, instead of picking up his books to grind experience points, he did something rare—he turned on his computer.

Since he had decided to buy the apartment he was renting, he had to find a way to make some money, and the internet was undoubtedly the best option.

With technology advancing rapidly, there were now countless ways to make money online.

Ye Fan's goal was simple: minimal time investment, high returns.

Cough, cough—

Of course, only he thought this goal was simple.

Hard work pays off.

After nearly an hour of searching, Ye Fan finally found a way to make money that met his criteria.

Academic Q&A!

On an academic exchange website, there was a reward board filled with various difficult problems along with corresponding bounties.

Ye Fan had heard of the academic exchange website.

It was said to be a site established by the Xia National Academy of Sciences, and its registered users were already approaching ten million, the majority of whom were university students.

Some might say, how much reward could academic answers possibly bring?

Heh—

Such a narrow mindset!

The top-ranked task on the bounty board was called The Superconducting Era.

The bounty for this task was so high that even Ye Fan's eyes lit up when he saw the long string of zeros.

Units, tens, hundreds, thousands, ten thousands...

Eighty million Xia currency!!!

That's right, the bounty for The Superconducting Era was eighty million, and the task was issued by the Xia National Academy of Sciences. There was absolutely no need to worry about completing the task and not getting paid.

This is it!

Ye Fan had already made up his mind. He clicked on the task and carefully read through it.

Completely focused, he lost all sense of time passing.

After finishing reading the task requirements for The Superconducting Era, Ye Fan immediately began researching related materials online.

This research lasted an entire night.

It wasn't until the morning sunlight filtered through the window and weakly reflected off the computer screen that Ye Fan slowly snapped back to reality. Looking at the time, he stood up and stretched lazily.

Throughout the night, he had read countless materials on superconductivity and had already developed a certain understanding of the task.

His next step was still research—only after thoroughly understanding superconductivity would he begin conducting experiments.

Ye Fan set a deadline for himself: before school started on September 1st, he had to complete this task.

After washing up, Ye Fan made a phone call to his landlord.

Since the landlord also lived in the same residential complex, they met in person. Ye Fan expressed his intentions and paid rent through the end of August.

A sixty-square-meter apartment, when converted, actually cost twelve million Xia currency. And that was because the layout was poor—otherwise, it would have been even more expensive.

At first, when the landlord heard that Ye Fan wanted to buy the apartment, he wasn't too convinced. But Ye Fan's straightforward attitude when paying rent made him quite pleased.

July and August were the off-season for rentals, especially for school district apartments—students were on vacation, so who would rent them?

Since a "fool with money" had come knocking, the landlord was more than happy to oblige.

Want to buy?

Sure, just pay up!

And so, their discussion went exceptionally smoothly.

After finalizing the deal, Ye Fan, feeling satisfied, hurried to school. However, even though he ran all the way, he still didn't make it before the bell rang.

"Report!"

Dozens of eyes turned toward the classroom door. But when they saw it was Ye Fan, everyone just went back to what they were doing, showing no interest in the spectacle.

After all, they knew the teacher wouldn't say anything.

Because this was Ye Fan!

Sure enough, when Yang Ting saw Ye Fan standing at the door, she smiled and nodded. "Hurry inside."

"Thank you, teacher."

Ye Fan responded and walked into the classroom. As soon as he sat down, he felt a small hand tugging at his shirt. While putting down his backpack, he chuckled and explained, "I went to talk to the landlord about something this morning, so I was delayed for a while."

"Are you planning to move out?"

Hearing this, Ning Xi guessed a possible reason.

After all, the college entrance exam was approaching. Once it was over, he would be living in the university dormitory, so there would be no need to rent an apartment anymore.

"No."
