Chapter 657: Chapter 658: Artificial Chip, a Small Invention! Stunned!

Min Xin endured King Jingyao’s furious tirade, then left. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺

Wang Yuan greeted him anxiously at the door. "How did it go?" he asked.

Min Xin said in a low voice, "Right now, we’re in quite a fix."

He stared at Wang Yuan, his voice tightening. "No matter what, nothing can happen to Bo Xichen over there."

Wang Yuan nodded, then softly suggested, "You should return to the hospital."

Min Xin glanced at him. "What hospital? There’s work to be done!"

Wang Yuan’s heart ached with worry. "I’m afraid your body can’t take it."

Min Xin was already striding towards his own office. "Can’t you see the situation we’re in?" he said as he walked. "If things go wrong, that man Wang could tear me to shreds."

Once they were inside his private office with the door closed, Wang Yuan whispered, "Should you... consider siding with Mr. King? From what I can see, Dark seems to have lost its mind and is beyond your control. If this continues, we’ll all be doomed."

Min Xin took out a cigarette and lit it. After a long drag, he exhaled slowly. "Let me think about it."

After a moment, he added, "Besides, with those top experts gone now, King Jingyao’s chances of winning are slim. Even if I side with him for temporary safety, won’t I just end up at their mercy in the end?"

Wang Yuan asked quietly, "So, will Bo Qing make his move against the Bo Family next?"

Min Xin looked at him but remained silent.

At that moment, even in his private office, the air was thick with an impending storm.

Back in King Jingyao’s office, once Min Xin had left, King Jingyao tilted his head. "You can come out now."

Gu Anxi stepped out from behind a door. King Jingyao, puffing on a cigar, asked, "What do you think?"

Gu Anxi casually hopped onto his desk and smiled. "He’s telling the truth. That Min fellow no longer trusts Dark. He won’t get involved in any overt operations like this. And his sending Wang Yuan to find those experts must have been an attempt to remain neutral, while still secretly, sneakily siding with Dark. But now those people are gone, and Dark has instead forced him to take a clear stance. Wouldn’t you say he has reason to be furious?"

King Jingyao waved her off. "Get down, get down. A young lady, always sitting on desks, what does that look like?"

Gu Anxi shifted slightly but remained on the desk.

King Jingyao feigned annoyance. "Even if we manage to win Min Xin over now, what damn good would that be? That guy is so obsessed with Zhou Yu now, he’s long past being useful. Besides, can Min Xin even write an interception program?"

As he spoke, Wang Jingchuan, who was standing nearby, chimed in, "Yes, yes, Mr. Min doesn’t seem very useful anymore."

Gu Anxi smirked. "He may be useless, but who said no one could create an interception system?"

King Jingyao slammed his thigh. "You cheeky little devil! Spit it out then!"

Gu Anxi grabbed his laptop, quickly typed a few codes, and a string of symbols appeared on the screen.

King Jingyao glanced at the screen, then looked at Wang Jingchuan, who asked, "Miss Anxi, what is this?"

Gu Anxi looked up and chuckled. "A week ago, I hacked into the computers of those experts and extracted their life’s research. And I’ve recently done a little research myself."

She pulled out several chips from her pocket, each inscribed with a name. She picked one out. "This one’s Academician Zhang’s. Look, as long as we connect this to the system, this chip can do Academician Zhang’s job. It replicates his way of thinking with 100 percent accuracy."

King Jingyao didn’t fully understand, but he grasped that these small gadgets could replace those important individuals.

He looked at them as if they were priceless treasures. "So these represent those doctors?"

Gu Anxi grinned. "This is input-based artificial intelligence."

She shrugged. "Honestly, I wasn’t planning to research this, but I just tinkered with it for fun while I was studying Fengxi."

King Jingyao rubbed his hands in excitement. "This is a huge help!"

Wang Jingchuan was equally thrilled. "This is truly incredible!"

Gu Anxi pulled another small chip from her pocket. "This is Min Xin’s intelligence. Old Brother, you can put it in a cleaning robot and have Min Xin sweep for you every day. If we make it into a humanoid robot later, it can serve tea, do laundry, cook... Pretty good, huh?"

King Jingyao and Wang Jingchuan stared, utterly dumbfounded.

Did Min Xin even know?

Despite their shock, elation quickly took over. Things were finally looking up! King Jingyao shed his earlier fury, personally brought out some fine rewards, and heartily praised his little rascal, Little Wang.

As Gu Anxi was leaving, carrying a large bag of things, Wang Yuan spotted her and immediately called out to Min Xin, "Sir, come quickly! Miss Gu is here, just about to leave."

Min Xin, surprised, went over. Sure enough, it was Gu Anxi, her arms laden with bags.

He frowned. "She didn’t get scolded?"

Wang Yuan looked at his superior with sympathy. "Perhaps Mr. King dotes on her too much to scold her."

Min Xin let out a long breath. "That fellow Wang just has it in for me!"

Just as he said that, Wang Jingchuan approached, holding an invitation. "Mr. Min, this is from Mr. Bo Qing."

Min Xin stared at him for a long moment before taking the invitation and opening it.

It was simply an invitation to dinner to discuss matters. From such a formal method of invitation, he could well imagine Bo Qing’s intention. Min Xin looked at Wang Jingchuan and chuckled. "Mr. King asked you to deliver this, didn’t he?"

Wang Jingchuan shook his head. "I saw him outside and brought it over. It wasn’t Mr. King’s intention."

He paused, then lowered his voice. "Mr. King is quite troubled right now. Mr. Min, you need to think carefully about your choice."

With that, he left.

After Wang Jingchuan departed, Min Xin examined the invitation again and again. After a long pause, he said, "Bo Qing is preparing to strike back."

Wang Yuan looked at Min Xin. "Then you..."

Min Xin walked to the window and looked out. Gu Anxi was gone.

He murmured, "Wang Yuan, can’t you see? Gu Anxi is a weathervane. Seeing how cheerfully she skipped away earlier, she must be very confident."

He held up the invitation. "Take this to Mr. King. Ask him what he thinks."

Wang Yuan’s jaw dropped. "You’re... you’re going to..."

Min Xin suddenly flared up. "Do you think I enjoy licking someone’s boots like a dog?!"
