The news of Lin Xuan leading students from Shangqing University to research microchips had made its way to the international internet.
Expressions of disdain appeared on the faces of those abroad.
"This Shangqing University is supposed to be the top academic institution in Xia Country, yet they dare to be so arrogant. Never mind high-end chips and lithography machines; they wouldn't even be able to figure out the low-end chips and machines we've already phased out."
"Hahahaha, people of Xia, are you trying to kill me with laughter?"
"Shangqing University, people of Xia... I'd really like to see what kind of garbage you manage to churn out."
Not a single person abroad believed that Lin Xuan could succeed in his research.
They all viewed it merely as a joke.
They didn't even pay much attention to it.
In their eyes, it was impossible for Lin Xuan to succeed.
Previously, many large corporations in the Great Xia Country had attempted to develop lithography machines and chips, and without exception, they had all failed.
If these massive companies had failed, what chance did a team of university students have?
It was an impossible task. If they were to spend their precious time following this research, it would simply be a waste of time.
The President of Shangqing University saw these comments while browsing the international web.
He curled his lips and let out a cold sneer.
They actually dared to look down on the team led by student Lin Xuan.
Just they wait.
Lin Xuan would definitely make their jaws drop in the future.
Lin Xuan was still resting in his dormitory at the university when he received a call from Butler Wang.
"Butler Wang, is something the matter?" Lin Xuan asked.
"Young Master Lin, right now there are many people cursing you for leading the Shangqing University students in chip research," Butler Wang said indignantly.
Those people actually dared to insult the Young Master like that, and even thought it was impossible for him to succeed.
Truly laughable!
Young Master Lin never did anything he wasn't confident in.
Since he decided to lead a team to research the chip project, he would certainly succeed.
Lin Xuan frowned deeply.
The fact that he was researching chips had been exposed so quickly.
He casually opened Weibo and saw that the matter of his chip research had appeared at the number one spot on the trending list. behind it were quite a few related topics. Just looking at the trending search terms, it was clear these people were attacking him.
Lin Xuan narrowed his eyes.
If it had simply been leaked, it wouldn't have hit the trending list this hard.
Someone must be fanning the flames from behind the scenes.
But this was actually perfect.
He could use this opportunity to properly hype up the popularity. Once the chips and lithography machine were developed, it would bring great benefits to the Tianmu Group, the Su Group, and Shangqing University.
"Young Master Lin," Butler Wang continued over the phone, "many people are scolding you. A bunch of people who can't recognize a pearl when they see one; their words are truly ugly. Young Master Lin, you really need to look at the comment section."
"You absolutely, absolutely must remember to check the comments."
He remembered that last time, someone had attacked the Young Master and said that if the Young Master actually accomplished something, they would do a handstand and live stream themselves eating shit.
The Young Master had actually made them eat it.
That scene had been too amusing.
Now that someone else was delivering themselves on a silver platter to the Young Master, how could he not let the Young Master pay close attention?
Lin Xuan happened to click on the hottest post regarding his topic on Weibo. The very first comment below it stated that if he could research the chip and lithography machine project, the commenter would live stream themselves doing a handstand and eating shit.
This comment had been posted quite late, but a crowd of drama-loving netizens had upvoted it one by one.
They all wanted Lin Xuan to see this comment.
That way, if Lin Xuan really did research the chips and lithography machine, they would have a good show to watch.
Lin Xuan frowned and asked, "Butler Wang, you're talking about the comment regarding the handstand and eating shit?"
"That's right."
Butler Wang nodded.
"These people's mouths are truly too foul. Young Master Lin, you cannot let them off."
"Don't worry, I won't let him off," Lin Xuan said with a nod.
Live streaming a handstand while eating shit—it was a bit disgusting, but the drama would be undeniable.
Lin Xuan operated his phone and took a screenshot of the comment to make it easier to settle the score with the other party once the chips and lithography machine were developed.
Aside from screenshotting that comment, Lin Xuan also found several other comments to screenshot. For instance, one said that if he could research it, they would slap themselves one hundred times.
There was also one about cross-dressing and pole dancing.
"Young Master Lin, um..." Butler Wang rubbed his hands together and asked with a beaming smile, "When you make them fulfill their promises, could you call me along?"
Following the Young Master to watch the drama was one of his most important forms of entertainment.
With such a great opportunity to watch the show, he didn't want to miss it.
"Sure, I'll bring you along when the time comes," Lin Xuan agreed readily.
"Thank you, Young Master Lin," Butler Wang said, his face full of joy. "Also, aside from this, if there are any other fun opportunities to watch drama, Young Master Lin, please remember you absolutely, absolutely must call me."
"Okay," Lin Xuan nodded.
"Also, Young Master Lin, didn't I mention before that I arranged for a maid to come work at the Night Garden? She was in poor health before, so I didn't have her come over, but now her health has completely recovered. She will come to work this evening," Butler Wang said respectfully.
He felt he needed to inform the Young Master about this.
Lin Xuan sharply sensed something was off.
Butler Wang seemed to place a lot of importance on this maid.
A wave of gossip rose in his heart.
"Butler Wang, is this maid a man or a woman?"
"A woman," Butler Wang replied. "Young Master Lin, is there a problem with that?"
A look of slight confusion appeared on Butler Wang's face.
"Butler Wang, is this your sweetheart?" Lin Xuan asked with a raised brow, his eyes holding a hint of amusement.
A blush appeared on Butler Wang's face.
"Yes," he nodded, speaking somewhat shyly. "Once before, I accidentally fainted from low blood sugar, and she was the one who saved me. It was love at first sight for me."
Lin Xuan asked, "Is she reliable?"
"She is reliable," Butler Wang nodded with certainty.
"That's good then."
Lin Xuan nodded.
With her coming to work as a maid at the Night Garden, he could also help Butler Wang properly observe her character.
Also, relying on his intuition, he felt that this person would be a suitable match for Butler Wang.
After Lin Xuan hung up the phone, he went for a stroll through Weibo.
He discovered many unsightly comments insulting him.
Lin Xuan didn't pay them much mind.
No matter how these people scolded him online, he was indifferent; it wasn't as if he would lose a layer of skin.
However... some people had already made promises, like the live stream of the handstand eating shit. Since that gluttonous kid liked to eat so much, he would have to make sure he ate his fill in the future.
Lin Xuan took screenshots of quite a few more comments.
He was just waiting to settle the score with them after the chips and lithography machine were developed.
A cold light glinted in Lin Xuan's eyes.
If people do not offend me, I will not offend them. If people offend me, I will pay them back twofold.
These people better just wait.

transmigrates into the world as the sect master of the Heavenly Yan Sect, which is on the verge of being wiped out. He binds a system that grants him cultivation power based on the number of disciples he has: for each disciple, he automatically gains a year's worth of cultivation every single day!
