Rejecting Qinghua Baoyan, I became a military officer

Chapter 761: Spending 100,000 Liver Scrolls!
After finishing everything, it was already past 2 a.m., but Xu Ye wasn't sleepy at all.

Moreover, the traditional way of staying up all night on New Year's Eve is actually to stay up all night until dawn.

However, nowadays most people go to sleep after watching the Spring Festival Gala.

Of course, fewer people in the South watch the Spring Festival Gala, but they have many ways of celebrating.

For Xu Ye, the way he chose to celebrate was to spend money—no, spend liver rolls!
With a thought, the familiar system panel appeared in his sight. Looking at the more than 530,000 Liver Scrolls, Xu Ye couldn't help but smile slightly.

Thank you, Shadak!

After all, strictly speaking, most of the people involved have direct or indirect ties to Saddam Hussein.

Otherwise, let alone more than 500,000, even 50,000 would be quite good.

No wonder some people like to profit from war; it just goes to show how fast money can be made from war.

After a moment of reflection, Xu Ye focused his attention on: Computer Technology Master (1168/100000).

Xu Ye had thought before that unless he used his "liver scroll value" (a skill's reward points), it would be almost impossible to reach the master level in a skill.

After all, Xu Ye couldn't possibly specialize in just one skill.

Unless it's a skill like fighter piloting that grants high-value experience—after shooting down so many planes, Xu Ye's skill is almost at the master level.

However, skills like computer technology can only be accumulated slowly over time. Since I upgraded to Master level by adding points last time, so much time has passed and I've only gained a little over a thousand experience points.

Even so, this was done intentionally by Xu Ye.

too slow!
If it's not very useful, then forget it. Xu Ye isn't in a hurry. For many skills that have been successfully transformed, Xu Ye's attitude is to let nature take its course.

However, if Xu Ye needs it now, there's no rush.

You can't spend all your time online, can you?

Even so, it's not very useful. Xu Ye hasn't yet discovered a way to quickly earn Liver Scrolls in this skill.

Xu Ye had tried some hacking techniques and gained a lot, but his liver scroll value did not increase accordingly.

Xu Ye also had some speculations about this.

"upgrade!"

After a moment of reflection, Xu Ye no longer hesitated and directly chose to upgrade his computer skills.

As his skills improved, Xu Ye gained a considerable amount of new knowledge.

Fortunately, the system was very user-friendly. It didn't cram everything into Xu Ye's brain at once, but instead gradually introduced information according to Xu Ye's level of understanding.

It's also thanks to Xu Ye's improved intelligence that he can learn much faster now.

"Go to sleep first!"

Feeling a bit dizzy, Xu Ye didn't try to tough it out and got up to go to sleep.

It's very simple; you receive relevant knowledge fastest while you're asleep.

According to Xu Ye's estimate, the reception should be completed by tomorrow morning.

This upgrade is indeed worth 100,000, and it takes much longer than upgrading to Master level before.

"Ziqing".

"Well, wake up."

"Okay, I'll be there in half an hour."

"Okay, that's all for now, see you later."

After hanging up the phone, Xu Ye opened his eyes and let out a long sigh of relief.

At this moment, Xu Ye's mind was very clear, and as soon as a thought came to mind, knowledge related to computer hardware and software came to mind.

"If nothing unexpected happens, I will become the King of Computers!"

With a somersault, Xu Ye sprang out of bed, raised his head slightly, and exuded an air of dominance.

Xu Ye was already very skilled in computer technology before, but looking back now, he could beat a hundred of his former selves.

When it comes to absolute quality, quantity is no match.

This is real combat power, not an illusion caused by a surge in technology, Xu Ye was very certain of.

These nearly 100,000 liver scrolls are, well, great value for money.

Suppressing the urge to allocate points to other skills, Xu Ye indulged in self-admiration for a while before quickly calming himself down.

There was no way around it; the feeling of such a surge in strength was just too exhilarating, so much so that Xu Ye wanted to upgrade another skill to experience it firsthand.

Unfortunately, less than 440,000 Liver Points, while seemingly a lot, are actually not much at all!

Especially with Xu Ye planning to give out another batch of New Year's gift packages, it's even more important to cut back on spending.

Well, after being generous once, Xu Ye started being meticulous about liver roll values ​​again.

Shaking his head to clear these chaotic thoughts from his mind, Xu Ye began to make the bed, get dressed, and wash up.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the traffic in Kunming was incredibly smooth. Twenty-six minutes after hanging up with Han Ziqing, Xu Ye appeared at the gate of the Han family's house.

"Xu Ye, Happy New Year!"

Han Ziqing, who was already waiting at the door, skipped and hopped over to Xu Ye, offering her blessings with a beaming smile.

"Ziqing, Happy New Year!" Xu Ye also sent his blessings.

"Come on, Mom and Dad are already waiting for you!" Han Ziqing pulled Xu Ye's hand and walked inside.

Goodness, you met the parents yesterday, and you're already this bold today?

Xu Ye saw that Han's parents weren't putting on airs at all; they were already waiting at the door.

"Happy Chinese New Year, Uncle and Aunt!"

Under their gazes, Han Ziqing stuck out her tongue before letting go of Xu Ye's hand. Xu Ye, without any embarrassment, smiled and wished them a Happy New Year.

"Happy New Year to you, Xiao Xu!" Secretary Han replied with a smile.

"Happy New Year, Happy New Year, Xiao Xu, hurry up, it's cold outside, let's come inside and chat," Han's mother greeted warmly.

Xu Ye keenly noticed that Secretary Han's cheek twitched inexplicably.

Well, it seems my father-in-law is a little jealous!
Indeed, compared to a mother-in-law finding her son-in-law more and more pleasing to the eye, a father-in-law tends to be somewhat dissatisfied with his son-in-law.

After all, anyone would feel the same way if their carefully nurtured flower for over twenty years was about to be taken away, pot and all.

Especially since he only has this one precious daughter, even if he is Secretary Han, he cannot avoid this kind of emotion.

Of course, precisely because he is Secretary Han, he wouldn't show any obvious emotions.

However, with a family of three, the daughter always sides with outsiders, and the wife treating Xu Ye like her own son, it's understandable that Secretary Han was a little wary.

It was only because Xu Ye had sharp eyes that he was able to catch that fleeting change in expression; most people wouldn't have that ability.

After all, at Secretary Han's level, not showing one's emotions is the most basic requirement.

After exchanging pleasantries, Xu Ye sat down next to Han's father.

Han Ziqing had really grown bold. She completely ignored her father's frequent glances at her and sat down right next to Xu Ye.

However, Han's mother never lost her "auntie smile".

Next, the "family" chatted while eating sunflower seeds and watching the Spring Festival Gala being rebroadcast.

It was really just casual chatting!

There's no way around it; neither Secretary Han's work nor Xu Ye's work can be casually discussed in this kind of setting.

In this situation, the conversation naturally turned to their future.

"Uncle, Aunt, you know about my family situation. As for our marriage, it's entirely up to you two to decide."

Xu Ye didn't mince words and stated his position directly.

In this way, Xu Ye has taken a step back to move forward, and he believes that Han's parents will not make any excessive demands.

Otherwise, if word got out, it would be considered bullying. Although there was a significant difference in their family backgrounds, and Xu Ye was an orphan, it was easy for him to be a "son-in-law" in name only.

But Xu Ye's situation is different!

If someone dares to treat him like that, they really think Xu Ye has no one else in his "family"!

Army, Air Force...

Therefore, Xu Ye was not worried at all.

Of course, this is also Xu Ye's way of showing respect to his parents.

"Xiao Xu, you two are both adults, you can handle it yourselves."

"The decision about marriage is between the two of you!"

After glancing at Xu Ye, Han's father slowly spoke.

Bringing in a wife?

He does.

But it's just a thought.

However, Han's father was very open-minded. He only had one daughter, Han Ziqing, and he just hoped that she would live a good life.

Although Xu Ye's family background was somewhat lacking.

But Xu Ye's abilities are simply too incredible!
Besides, Han's father never considered "arranged marriages," so he naturally didn't care about family background.

In short, as long as the person has good character and is reasonably capable, let your daughter do what she wants.

Based on everything he knew about Xu Ye, Xu Ye's character was undoubtedly impeccable; in fact, even he had never seen anything like it before.

As for ability?

Based on what he knew, if he didn't know that it couldn't be faked, he would really believe it was fake!
How can a person be so awesome?

And this is only what he knows.

What he doesn't know?

A lieutenant colonel who is not even twenty years old—let alone in China, he would seem abnormal in any normal country in the world.

However, Han's father knew that, based on Xu Ye's achievements, if it weren't for the age limit, even a lieutenant colonel wouldn't have been enough.

Therefore, Han's father was quite satisfied with his abilities.

Although Mr. Han didn't care much about his future son-in-law's abilities.

But nobody wants a good-for-nothing son-in-law, right?

Most importantly, her daughter really liked Xu Ye.

He had never seen his daughter care so much about anyone before.

With his daughter and wife both satisfied, and his own qualifications not only fully meeting but far exceeding those requirements, Mr. Han was naturally very pleased with such a son-in-law.

"That's great, thank you, Dad!"

Before Xu Ye could even speak, Han Ziqing, who had been holding his hand tightly, cheered excitedly upon hearing her father's words.

"Ok?"

Han's mother glanced over from the side.

Seeing this, Han Ziqing quickly ran over and hugged her mother's arm, shaking it playfully and saying, "Thank you too, Mom!"

"Uncle, Aunt, don't worry, I will definitely treat Ziqing well and won't let her suffer any injustice."

After Han Ziqing finished cheering, Xu Ye stood up and formally addressed Han's parents.

After today, unless unforeseen circumstances arise, their marriage will be officially finalized.

"Yes, I believe you!" Mr. Han nodded.

Han's father naturally did not believe that Xu Ye's promise was just empty talk.

Han's mother watched the two talking with a smile on her face, looking satisfied and gratified.

"Uncle, Aunt, here's what I'm thinking about our marriage: once I'm old enough, I'll get our marriage certificate first."

"As for when to hold the banquet, we'll have to trouble you, Uncle and Aunt, to figure that out."

Taking advantage of this rare opportunity, Xu Ye decided to finalize everything first.

If two people are in love and their parents don't object, they should hurry up and get married. It will put many people at ease.

Another point is that with the marriage arranged, Xu Ye can save himself a lot of trouble.

When I didn't have a girlfriend, many people who genuinely cared about me kept urging me to find one.

Once they had Han Ziqing as their girlfriend, those same people started talking about when they were going to get married again.

Most importantly, Xu Ye knew that these people were genuinely looking out for his own good, rather than using the guise of doing what was best for him to extract benefits for themselves.

Therefore, Xu Ye also has a lot of happy troubles.

Of course, Xu Ye also knew that even after he got married, things would still not completely calm down.

After all, you still have to have children, right?

However, if you pressure someone to have a baby, that person will likely be much quieter, and it's not something that people who aren't close relatives should bring up.

As for Xu Ye, since his parents are no longer alive, the only person Han's father will likely nag about him is Han's mother, but she will only nag Han Ziqing about him.

Of course, Xu Ye wouldn't object if Han Ziqing wanted to have children early.

To reiterate, even if Xu Ye has a cheat code, he knows that he is not immortal.

If something unexpected happens, leaving a legacy in this world will ensure that my life wasn't lived in vain.

However, that's all for later; let's finalize the marriage arrangements first.

"Okay, we'll do it your way!"

After a moment's thought, Han's father didn't object. "As for the banquet, we'll talk about that later!"

Regardless of Xu Ye's identity or his background, he has the ability to hold a grand event, but it might have some impact.

There's still plenty of time, let's not rush into a decision.

“Okay, I’ll listen to Uncle.” Xu Ye naturally had no objections.

After finishing discussing this important matter, they chatted for a while longer before a secretary came in to remind Mr. Han that it was time to leave.

Xu Ye was not surprised at all by this.

For ordinary people, the first day of the Lunar New Year is naturally a time for eating, drinking, and having fun.

However, for people like Secretary Han, it is still very busy.

"Mom, Xu Ye and I have been gone for a hundred years!"

After Han's father left, Han Ziqing couldn't wait to talk to her mother.

That's what they said, but Han Ziqing really didn't want to see the people who came to their house to wish them a Happy New Year.

"Okay, you go!"

Knowing her daughter's thoughts, Han's mother didn't say anything, but spoke with a touch of indulgence.

In the blink of an eye, her daughter has grown up and is about to get married, which makes her feel somewhat emotional.

"Xiao Xu, come back for lunch!" Han's mother reminded Xu Ye again.

“Okay, Auntie!” Xu Ye didn’t refuse.

Now that the relationship between the two sides is completely established, there's no need to be so polite anymore.
