Interstellar Energy Tycoon

A few years later.

March 2078.

The 38th year of the New Era—that is, the 38th year since mankind officially entered space on a large scale.

In the solar system, the eighth orbital area between the orbits of Venus and Azure Star, in space city No. 387 - 'Golden City No. 7'.

Li Lefan, an 18-year-old boy, is a senior high school student who is doing fairly well in studies. He has an above-average appearance and a pair of impressive deep eyes. Although he is usually low-key and feels very ordinary, he always Unconsciously, he exudes a unique temperament. In addition, he loves sports. He often goes to play ball and play games with his classmates and friends, so he has the feeling of a sunny boy.

In addition, he has a gentle personality, good temper, and is more willing to help others.

In the class, he was quite popular, with many friends, and several female classmates who had a crush on him. Even Ran Mengxi, the beauty of the class, would occasionally cast curious glances at the corner of the window where he was.

It's just that so far, Li Lefan has no experience in dating. He is like a blank sheet of paper. It's not that the school and elders don't allow it, and some girls have taken the initiative to send signals to him. However, in the end, Li Lefan said that his family conditions were ordinary and his financial situation was not good. For good reasons, he rejects those girls who have a crush on him, or he only wants to make ordinary friends, or even get along as brother and sister.

After all, everyone is still a student and should focus on their studies and not do irrelevant things.

Secondly, Li Lefan personally has a little low self-esteem and worries. He is worried that he cannot bring happiness to the girl who likes him and does not want to hurt her.

That's right.

Li Lefan is an illegitimate child who was raised by his mother since he was a child and grew up in a single-parent family.

As for the biological father, he has met him several times. He has a very great background and a very noble status. He is actually Li Haoyun, the sixth son of the 'King of the Sun' Li Xingyang, a proper 'Prince of the Sun'. From this perspective, Li Lefan is the grandson of the 'King of the Sun' Li Xingyang, and he also has a very noble bloodline.

However, Li Lefan is only Li Haoyun's illegitimate son, and one of the fifteen illegitimate sons. He has no formal status and cannot even qualify as a peripheral member of the Sun Family - unless he can make great contributions to the 'Sun Family', he can Be recognized as a member of the family.

Li Lefan's mother was a pretty ordinary woman. She was one of the ten mistresses Li Haoyun kept. After she got tired of being played with, she seldom continued to care about her. She couldn't visit her twice a year, and she only provided a relatively small amount of living expenses. He is generous and has a relatively cold attitude towards his illegitimate son. He can't be said to be good or bad, and it is impossible to have deep feelings. After all, illegitimate children are the product of temporary desires and will only bring trouble and embarrassment. If it weren't for the Sun Family 'They attach great importance to fertility. As long as they can add new people to the family, illegitimate children will be recognized. Therefore, Li Lefan has not suffered much since he was a child, but he has received slightly less care.

And because he was raised hard by his mother since he was a child, Li Lefan is more mature mentally and considers more issues. He always appears to be much more sensible than his peers and has higher emotional intelligence. He occasionally shows his independent side. He doesn't mess up when things happen, and his teachers speak highly of him and think he will definitely achieve something in the future.

But Li Lefan also has his worries and worries.

Besides, high school is almost over.

Life is about to reach a new fork.

Li Lefan has been thinking about what he should do better in the past few days. Is it better to continue studying in college and improve his academic qualifications, or to go out and do some business and work hard for his future? Due to the great development of artificial intelligence, For large-scale applications, the cost-effectiveness of studying in college is very low now, but tuition fees are often rising. If students do not have a degree from a prestigious university, they will be unemployed once they graduate. The cost-effectiveness is too low. It is better to go out to work directly after graduating from high school and learn a subject. Relatively reliable craftsmanship and accumulating work experience in advance will be very good for future development.

Although his academic performance is acceptable, Li Lefan knows that he is not a genius, his intelligence level is only average, and there are many people better than him as grains of sand, so continuing to study is not suitable for him.

It would be better for him to enter the society earlier and experience some severe beatings earlier. This should be more suitable for him. Not only can he make money as soon as possible and achieve financial independence, but he can also see more wonderful things and get rid of the shackles of his mother.

After all, Li Lefan doesn't want to be a mama's baby, and he doesn't want to face her mother's gaze every day as she hopes that her son will succeed. She even wants to train him to be good enough. After being recognized by the 'Sun Family', she can also successfully come aboard and become a member of the Sun Family. Peripheral member - this possibility is extremely low, but my mother placed this unrealistic wish on him.

However, Li Lefan himself didn't want to rely on too many external forces. He just wanted to rely on his own efforts to prove his abilities. He also didn't want to have too many interactions with the 'Sun Family'. He really wanted to prove himself and was unwilling to endure certain abnormalities. He doesn't want to rely on others. He has his own hands and feet, so why do he need to rely on relationships to achieve great results? He would rather start from scratch and rise from scratch than to have someone pave the way for him. This is not okay. He does not want this kind of life. He hopes that his life, even if it is not a simple mode, must be an ordinary mode, otherwise it will be meaningless.

It’s just that his mother will definitely object firmly and not allow him to go out and have a career right after graduating from high school. At least he has to go to a better university. If he can’t get into a good university, with the energy of the Sun Family, he can make arrangements at that time. The big deal is just spending some money, and there is no problem or pressure to get into a prestigious school.

Secondly, at school, I learned that Li Lefan’s intention to graduate was not to take the college entrance examination, but to go out and work outside after getting his diploma. This was persuaded by several teachers, who all asked him to go to university and get a university degree certificate and graduation. With the certificate, no matter what job you are looking for in the future, you will be able to find a high-paying job relatively easily and live an even easier life. However, if you only have a high school degree, even if the smart assistant is very easy to use, it will not be able to live your life for you.

these resistances.

Li Lefan has the means and ability to overcome it. After all, no one can change what he has made up his mind to do. Moreover, human lifespan has been greatly extended nowadays. Even if he takes a detour, he will still have the opportunity to correct and change in the future, that is, there will still be regrets and changes. There is no room for correction, and it is not a problem to delay it for three to five years. There will be ways to make up for it later.

Unexpectedly, the biggest resistance he encountered was the class beauty Ran Mengxi. After she left it alone for the day, she sent a few messages in advance, asking him not to leave after school and to wait for her on the rooftop of the teaching building. She was a little worried I want to say something to him.

"What does the class girl want to talk to me about?"

Li Lefan was very surprised. He didn't understand why the class beauty wanted to find him. The relationship between the two was not very deep, so it was better not to go. However, after two beeps, the communicator on his wrist received another message from Ran Mengxi. He had to keep the appointment and couldn't think of slipping away, otherwise the consequences would be serious.

See these warnings.

Li Lefan could only be obedient. After the bell rang, he walked to the roof of the teaching building and waited for the arrival of the class beauty.

Not a moment.

The sound of trampling footsteps came.

Li Lefan, who was waiting, turned around and saw Ran Mengxi, the class beauty, appeared in front of him, wearing a JK suit, very young and beautiful, with top-notch looks, fair and flawless skin, a well-proportioned and graceful figure, and a goddess-like height. Her cold temperament and excellent academic performance have made her a goddess in the hearts of many boys, and there are countless people pursuing her. However, the class beauty has a very high vision. So far, she has not been in a relationship. This is not true in the eyes of many boys. On campus, the phenomenon of pairs seems quite rare and strange.

"Banhua, you called me here. Do you have something to tell me?"

Li Lefan stood up, walked in front of her in two steps, and asked.

"I heard that after graduating from high school, you plan to drop out of school and pursue your career instead of going to college? You are so smart and it is not difficult to get into a prestigious university. Why do you want to enter the society so quickly?" Ran Mengxi, a class beauty, looked at him and asked road.

"It doesn't matter whether you go to college or not. Now is not the time to look at academic qualifications. Instead of wasting a few years going to college, it's better to develop early, accumulate some experience, and earn some income. I think this is a better choice."

Li Lefan shrugged.

"Can you change your mind and go to college with me? We are still very young. We are only eighteen years old. It is the time to enjoy life and youth. Why are you so persistent in going to develop outside? This society is not like It’s as simple as we imagine, but the competition is still fierce. Although there is a lot of room for development and many opportunities, most ordinary people, even if they work very hard, will hardly achieve much. If you start from the bottom, even if I entered the society very early, and after a few years, I may not be able to accumulate a lot of resources, and I may not be able to earn as much as others in a month..."

Banhua Ran Mengxi persuaded him, hoping that he would give up his original plan.

"How I choose is my own business. Why are you persuading me like this? It seems that the relationship between the two of us is not particularly close. There is no reason or necessity for you to come to persuade me."

Li Lefan asked strangely, not understanding why the class beauty would do this.

"Stop being so sentimental!"

Ran Mengxi stomped her feet angrily and said: "I am the monitor of our class. It was the class teacher who asked me to help you with ideological work. Are you overthinking it? Do you think I like you? Haha, this kind of thing How is this possible? Stop your unrealistic fantasies."

"Uh, sorry, that's not what I meant."

Li Lefan awkwardly grabbed his hands and had to say: "I'm overthinking, please don't mind, but I really don't consider going to university. No matter what kind of knowledge, artificial intelligence has more and more knowledge than us." Okay, just know how to apply it. I don’t really like to do meaningless and worthless things. Maybe it’s more suitable for me to work in society instead of being a parasite in the ivory tower of a university.”

"What's wrong with going to college? Why don't you get the hang of it?"

Ran Mengxi said angrily: "You also said you don't want to be a parasite. Do you know how many people want to enter university but can't get in? In some universities now, there are generally more girls than boys. As long as they enter university, they are not afraid of not being able to get in. There may be girls who take the initiative to pursue you, and the school will encourage it, even in the dormitory building where you live. If you accidentally have a little watermelon, the school also encourages you to give birth to a little watermelon. If you get married and start a family, you will get extra credits. Scholarship, there will be no pressure in life, I don’t know how wonderful it is, it is like heaven, don’t you have any expectations and yearnings?”

"Well, there is indeed a little bit, but not much. I don't want to be bound by too many things. I just want to see the outside world and see the stars and the sea. These are far more attractive than college life. So stop trying to persuade me, classmate, I am invincible now. You suggest that I fall in love and have a wonderful college life, but this may bring me weaknesses. If I want to go out and have a career in the future, I may not be able to I can’t get out, I don’t have the conditions anymore.”

Li Lefan shook his head repeatedly to express his refusal.

Seeing that his persuasion was of no use.

Ran Mengxi could only grit her teeth and glare at him: "I will give you another option. As long as you listen to me and are willing to go to college, then I will agree to be your girlfriend and go to the same school as you. In addition, my family is open Company, my dad’s business is doing pretty well. When you graduate from college, I will arrange you to my dad’s company so that you can develop on a better platform. When my dad retires, you may take over the company. , the only condition is to marry into my home, how about it, this option is very good, right? Li Lefan, I am giving you a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Although in this era, there seem to be many development opportunities, they have begun to solidify. , it has become difficult for ordinary people to get ahead, and the unemployment rate is also increasing. Originally, I didn’t consider letting you eat this soft meal of mine, but you are pretty good, and you are relatively stable in your work, so I will give it to you. How about this opportunity? Li Lefan, it’s time to nod your head and agree, I’ve lowered my face to persuade you, don’t be disrespectful.”

"this……"

Li Lefan was stunned for a moment, not expecting that things would turn out like this.

In order to persuade him to go to college, class beauty Ran Mengxi actually went to this extent and paved a path for his future. For most boys, it is a very pleasant path.

As for getting married, many boys don't care about this at all. It's just a matter of surname. There is no throne in the family for anyone to inherit, so the surname doesn't matter. Li Lefan doesn't attach great importance to it.

Look at this class beauty with a cold temperament. In order to persuade him, her face turned red with anger, she looked cuter, and she made a huge effort, which made him feel a little shaken and moved.

"Class beauty, I am really, really excited about your option. I don't think many boys will refuse it, but... I still want to stick to my original plan. I'm really sorry. Maybe many years later, I will definitely be very I regret missing this opportunity, but I really don’t want to go to college, I still want to go out and make a living, I’m very sorry.”

Li Lefan bowed, then turned around and left with a look of struggle and hesitation.
