Cao Cheng Is Not Lazy, But Cultivating

"Husband!"

"Hmm?"

"I want to go back to work."

"Are you crazy?"

"..."

Tang Xin gave Cao Cheng an annoyed look. Then she tugged at his sleeve and pleaded coquettishly, "I've been a housewife for over a year. Now Little Decheng is about to be weaned. From now on, Ren's mother can take care of the kids."

Ren's mother was what she meant by "our mom".

The eldest sister definitely didn't have the time. She was busier than anyone else.

In the family, only Ren's mother had the time. On the one hand, she was taking care of the sixth child, and it would be easy for her to take care of Little Cao as well.

Of course,

Cao Cheng could tell that Tang Xin's sudden request was actually triggered by the eldest sister.

Tang Xin was a woman who loved working. Well...

Or rather, she was a woman who loved being a strong career - woman.

In the past, she had been in control of everything.

She even managed Cao Cheng's accounts.

In ancient times, she would have been the chief steward in charge of the family keys, and everyone in the household would have had to follow her orders. She had the ability to do so.

After being pregnant and taking care of Little Cao for a year, she had been really pent - up.

Cao Cheng could understand her, but at the same time, he couldn't.

What was so great about going to work?

A strong career - woman?

A female billionaire?

What was the point?

Wasn't it more enjoyable to fish at home?

Even if you didn't want to fish, lying there watching boring variety shows, wasn't that nice?

Didn't like variety shows? Then lying there reading books, drinking, or going shopping, wasn't that comfortable?

Why did she have to go to work?

Cao Cheng didn't have any strong - handed male chauvinism. He wouldn't insist on the traditional idea of "the man works outside and the woman takes care of the home", nor would he keep women at home just to take care of children and cook.

He was even open to the idea of "the woman works outside and the man takes care of the home", believing in gender equality.

However...

He just couldn't understand the mindset of those who loved going to work. Did they want to prove their abilities?

"Little Cao will miss you," Cao Cheng played the family - affection card.

Tang Xin looked conflicted. She would miss the little guy too. What a smart son he was! He was the apple of her eye.

But...

Tang Xin said, "I'm not going to stay away from home. I'll just handle some work. Most of the tasks will still be done by my subordinates."

"Have you thought it through?"

"Yes. Right now, you need someone on your side. After all these years of planning, I want to personally bring down those international capitals."

Tang Xin was well - aware of many of Cao Cheng's plans.

If it hadn't been for having a baby, she would have been involved in the whole process and become the person steering the ship by Cao Cheng's side.

It wasn't too late now.

She could still be part of the exciting second half.

"Alright, then gradually get back into work. Don't overdo it at once. I'm afraid your body won't be able to take it."

"By the way,"

Cao Cheng suddenly remembered something. "I'll teach you a cultivation method."

"Cultivation method?" Tang Xin was taken aback.

Cao Cheng had wanted to teach her for a long time.

The reason he hadn't taught her at first was that he wanted to practice it himself first to see if there were any side - effects.

He also couldn't let them become more powerful than him.

Otherwise, what if they beat him up?

If the fourth sister became really powerful, she would probably beat him up every day. Humph!

Later, after a deeper understanding of the cultivation method, he found that it was only suitable for men. The "Wolong Leisure Chapter", as its name suggested... It wasn't that women couldn't practice it, but the effects wouldn't be as good as for men.

Moreover, it might cause some different side - effects.

That was why he had postponed teaching it.

Fortunately, this time he had enough emotional points to draw a lottery and open a box, and he got another cultivation method.

This way, the women around him could also enter the path of immortal cultivation.

He couldn't guarantee immortality.

But longevity was certain.

And it could make people look younger and more beautiful.

The path of cultivation emphasized wealth, methods, companions, and environment. If Cao Cheng could achieve immortality in the future, what would be the meaning of immortality if there were no companions by his side?

People always said that there were always 18 - year - old girls.

But in the end, the original partner was the best.

The system was also quite helpful.

Maybe because of his daily self - reflection, the system felt guilty, so it had been giving him good things these days.

It seemed that the system needed to be scolded; otherwise, it wouldn't strive for progress.

...

After that,

Cao Cheng started to tell Tang Xin about this cultivation method, a passive one called the "Phoenix - Nesting Heart - Cleansing Formula".

This cultivation method was also passive.

Through breathing and the skin, one could naturally absorb the yin essence qi from the world.

It would circulate with the qi and blood and automatically start to temper the meridians.

There was no need to sit in meditation. In fact, it was even better than Cao Cheng's method. One didn't need a fixed sleeping time. Just following one's normal sleep pattern, one could purify oneself.

The most important thing was...

These two cultivation methods had a bit of a meaning of dual - cultivation.

The higher their cultivation levels, the better the effects of dual - cultivation would be.

...

A golden light entered Tang Xin's glabella.

Tang Xin exclaimed, "So, there really are cultivators in this world? No wonder you're so lazy all day. So you've been cultivating?"

Tang Xin had always wondered why Cao Cheng was so lazy, like a retired old man.

At first, the second and fourth sisters had also complained about him.

Now, Tang Xin finally understood.

Cao Cheng didn't bother to explain this misunderstanding.

"Rubbish! There are no cultivators,"

Cao Cheng rolled his eyes. "Your husband is the only cultivator in the world. You should count yourself lucky. Right now, only you and I in this world can practice cultivation."

Tang Xin was stunned. "What about Ren Fanxing?"

Cao Cheng naturally knew what she was asking about. He shook his head and said, "You're the first one. Even if the Second Sister starts practicing, it'll definitely be after you."

Rules definitely have to be followed.

After all, she's the first wife.

If he couldn't give her his whole heart, he had to make up for it in other ways.

Moreover, whether others could practice or not would also depend on whether Tang Xin agreed.

Tang Xin was also a smart woman. Hearing the meaning in Cao Cheng's words, there was a mist in her eyes, and she was very happy.

Immediately afterwards, she pounced on Cao Cheng.

Cao Cheng exclaimed in surprise, "It's broad daylight. What kind of behavior is this?"

Tang Xin cackled, "Young master, don't struggle. Just submit to this empress."

"..."

...

After the bustling January ended, February was approaching the Spring Festival.

It was a time for family reunions.

After the Spring Festival, Tang Xin also started to get involved in work.

She worked a few hours a day and spent most of the time at home. Gradually, her workload increased.

When Tang Xin was around, Cao Cheng doted on her exclusively.

When Tang Xin was at work, Cao Cheng would also accompany others.

This included the little Eurasian girl from the pharmaceutical company.

The little Eurasian girl's father, Paul, bought a flat of over 400 square meters in Global One. Even at the internal price, it cost over two hundred million.

This was Paul's wedding gift for the little Eurasian girl.

In other words, it was indirectly given to Cao Cheng, which was a way to support Cao Cheng's Global One project.

Since the in - laws were so reasonable, Cao Cheng naturally treated the little Eurasian girl better and accompanied her for a few days.

Maybe he had a good time.

The value feedback from the Mother - Child Lock increased from the previous 88 to 90.

Although it was still not as high as that of several elder sisters, it was already very good.

You know, Old Cao and Young Master Cao only had a score of 88!

Tsk~~ Old Cao is nothing.

He's not even as good as a Eurasian girl.

If Old Cao knew about this, he'd probably vomit blood. Damn it, a score above 80 means being considered a family member. Can you be considered family with a Eurasian girl?

Don't be fooled by the 90. It's not fixed and can drop at any time.

But regardless of what Old Cao said, at least for now, the Eurasian girl was worth cultivating.

If Cao Cheng showed more sincerity towards her, it was not impossible for her score to reach 95.

...

After the Spring Festival, Xiao Gangpao lost completely.

His movie "Old Cannon" had a good result. It was a bit better than in the dream, but it only just exceeded one billion. Even if the global box - office was added later, it was still difficult to surpass "Let the Bullets Fly", "Goodbye Mr. Loser", and "Detective Chinatown".

But it was okay.

During this Spring Festival season, "Old Cannon" was among the top five, so it wasn't at the bottom. It also restored some face for the old director.

After the Spring Festival, Xiao Gangpao entered a new film crew cursing. He didn't want to stop for a single moment.

The Eternal Life Society gave out some tasks.

Everyone could accept different tasks. For example, these directors.

The tasks they received were related to publicity.

The goal was to boost national self - confidence and pride.

The Eternal Life Society had never hidden its three major purposes. From the very beginning, it had made them clear and confirmed its support for several families in the east of the village.

Naturally, it would show favoritism towards them.

Everyone was aware of this.

They also knew that among the three presidents of the Eternal Life Society or other high - level members, there was someone from the east of the village.

At first, they thought it was Cao Cheng, because Cao Cheng had come up with a lot of new technologies.

Later, after "investigating", they found out that there was someone behind Cao Cheng.

As for who that person was, it wasn't actually difficult to investigate.

Tang Xin's father took the blame for Cao Cheng.

But many people firmly believed it.

They also thought in their hearts that it had to be someone from the Tang family. Otherwise, how could he hold such a high position in the Eternal Life Society?

If they investigated further, they would find that before Cao Cheng became famous, he had already been with Tang Xin, at least as friends.

This further indicated that Cao Cheng was the son - in - law chosen by the Tang family and their external agent.

So, after in - depth investigation, it could be found that during Cao Cheng's growth process, the Tang family had intervened in many things and helped him deal with a lot of troubles.

Cao Cheng was just lucky.

If it weren't for the Tang family, Cao Cheng might have only been moderately wealthy or even just an ordinary person.

Thinking this way, everything made sense.

It all matched up.

Those who were originally interested in Cao Cheng gradually lost interest.

He was just an agent. Even if they got rid of him, it wouldn't do any good. Apart from provoking the anger and revenge of the Tang family, there was nothing to gain.

...

After Tang Xin started working, Cao Cheng also gave the cultivation method to the Second Sister.

Mainly because he had tasted the benefits.

Cultivating the method together brought even better results than ordinary sleep - based cultivation.

Coupled with the heart - to - heart connection brought by the Mother - Child Lock, this effect on joint cultivation was enhanced.

With all these combined effects, Cao Cheng's progress was extremely rapid.

After giving the cultivation method to Ren Fanxing, Cao Cheng also explained his own cultivation method and began to guide the two of them to cultivate together. Ren Fanxing never expected that there would really be a chance for immortal cultivation in the world!

At the same time, she misunderstood Cao Cheng.

Cao Cheng wasn't lazy; he was cultivating!

Ren Fanxing asked curiously, "Can this cultivation method keep one young forever and live a long life?"

"More or less."

Cao Cheng nodded. "Although it's not as exaggerated as you said, it can indeed keep you young for a long time. You'll probably still look young and beautiful in your seventies or eighties, and a long life is inevitable. As long as you advance in your cultivation realm, your lifespan will increase indefinitely."

Ren Fanxing took a deep breath. "Then, can everyone practice it?"

"All women can practice your cultivation method, but they must be family members. You know, if this kind of thing gets leaked, it'll easily cause trouble."

Cao Cheng and she were connected by a mother - child lock, their hearts linked, so he naturally understood the meaning behind her question.

Cao Cheng said, "Don't worry. I'll also find an opportunity to give it to Ren's mother and the others. We're a family, and we must all live long together."
