In response to mom’s nagging and complaints, Lin Yi could only shake his head with a wry smile, feeling helpless because he just wanted to take it easy, right?

And since dad is not comfortable handing the business over to outsiders, he has to tire himself out.

He really didn’t expect that wanting to give his dad a peaceful and happy retirement would instead become a burden, something he didn’t want to see.

At the same time, he thought to himself that when dad returns, he must talk to him about not overworking himself, as these things can be entrusted to others.

Just managing a little bit would be fine.

He should thoroughly change dad’s mindset, so he can enjoy his retirement early.

A. At his age, hasn’t he already started enjoying the retired life?

Of course, though he said this, Lin Yi also felt a bit bitter inside.

Even though he had handed over the group’s matters here, in that ancient society, many tasks still awaited him.

And there were challenges no one in this world had ever encountered that he had to handle.

Integrating the world’s resources—such a task was not easy.

After chatting with mom for a bit, Lin Yi went to play with his daughter. After all, he was only away for a few days, and media reports covered his entire trip. They could see him through video, so they didn’t feel much.

It was only because of Lin Yi’s previous fainting incident that they felt so anxious.

Now, upon seeing no harm had come to their son, they were not so emotional, except for the little one, who really missed him and clung to him, refusing to let go.

This brought Lin Yi a sense of warmth. This little one was indeed worth all the doting, and his little girl was reliable.

He played wildly with his daughter in the living room, causing her to giggle continuously.

If his mom saw Lin Yi lifting the child above his head while running back and forth, she’d immediately scold him, fearing he’d drop the little one,

but Lin Yi didn’t take it to heart at all. His physical condition was second to none, and he was confident in ensuring their safety.

The little one was so light; how could he possibly drop her?

Even if he fell, he wouldn’t let her get hurt.

Watching the two of them run around, Empress Dowager Ye couldn’t help but laugh in the end.

Especially seeing her son, she couldn’t help but recall when he was little.

Her husband used to carry her like that around the room, though back then, they were quite poor, unlike the life they had now, all of which their son had created by himself, proving just how outstanding he was.

A sense of pride welled up in Empress Dowager Ye’s heart as she felt truly proud of her son.

Finally, as evening came, Xiao Zihan woke from her sleep and immediately went to the living room to find Lin Yi,

Seeing Lin Yi playing with their beloved daughter, she couldn’t help but smile happily.

It wasn’t until past eight in the evening that dad, urged repeatedly by Empress Dowager Ye, finally returned. Even knowing his son had woken and receiving countless phone calls, dad was too busy to leave.

Seeing his father looking worn out, Lin Yi went over with some heartache and helplessness, calling him "dad."

Lao Lin merely nodded and then looked his son up and down, finally patting his son’s shoulder heavily with great relief, saying:

"Not bad, you didn’t embarrass your father. You’ve completed the construction of the lunar base, well done. You’ve advanced our entire Huaxia history by a huge step."

Hearing these words from his dad, Lin Yi was taken aback, not expecting such words to come from his mouth.

It seemed Comrade Lin had indeed made significant progress during this time, and he spoke so eloquently now, even using official tone with his son, enough to make Lin Yi find it amusing.

The hot pot, which had been prepared in advance, was brought out, and the whole family sat together for a lively meal.

After dinner, Lin Yi’s family sat on the sofa and turned on the TV.

Sure enough, at that moment, the TV news was broadcasting Lin Yi’s latest move,

Although the spacecraft only flashed briefly on the screen, it shocked the entire nation.

Of course, the reason for revealing the spacecraft was that foreign reconnaissance satellites had already detected it,

So instead of letting them release the images first, they decided to reveal it themselves to instill confidence in their citizens.

Sure enough, that night, countless households exploded with shock,

Everyone was astonished; no one expected their country’s technology to be so advanced, surpassing expectations.

People, who always thought Western countries had the highest technological standards, were surprised to find out this wasn’t the case.

It filled everyone with pride, prompting many to praise Lin Yi and secretly give him a thumbs-up!

Listening to the news broadcast and watching the footage Lin Yi sent back that could be publicly shared, Lin Father and Lin Mother couldn’t help but give a thumbs-up as well.

And when they looked at their son, their eyes were filled with pride, seeing him as the mischievous child who had grown up to achieve so much.

Lin Yi couldn’t help but feel a mix of amusement and embarrassment, as he didn’t expect things to blow up to this extent.

Initially, in his plans, he hadn’t intended to make the existence of the spacecraft public so soon.

However, due to his sudden return and excitement, he momentarily forgot to hide it, leading to the current situation, though he had no regrets as it was something he was glad to see happen.
