After Having Everything Taken Away, She Returns As A God

Chapter 1049: Si Fuqing Was Just Taking the Exam for Fun, Confrontation (1)

Sang Yanqing was taken aback. “What?”

Si Fuqing lazily flicked the papers in her hand. “How much is Above the Cloud offering for this chip design competition?”

“Well…” Sang Yanqing was momentarily confused. “It definitely won’t be less than nine figures.”

Above the Cloud had established an “Excellence Talent Program,” which annually scouted geniuses from the international joint examination for early investment.

Last year, a 12-year-old prodigy was recruited by Above the Cloud, with an annual salary exceeding tens of millions.

Above the Cloud had never been stingy when it came to nurturing talent and advancing technology.

“Not bad.” Si Fuqing stroked her chin thoughtfully. “In that case, I’ll take the design seriously.”

Sang Yanqing watched as she picked up a blank sheet of paper and a pen, quickly sketching the outline of a chip.

She closed her eyes briefly, and when she opened them again, she added a few more lines to the sketch.

Even though Sang Yanqing didn’t understand chips, she could tell that Si Fuqing knew exactly what she was doing. Her voice suddenly rose. “You… you’re kidding, right?!”

Was there anything she couldn’t do?

Would she even let others live?

Sang Yanqing realized she still hadn’t fully adapted to this. “Did you learn this from a game too?”

Si Fuqing continued drawing seriously. “Oh, no. This isn’t from a game. It’s from my experience disassembling bombs and mechs back in the day.”

Sang Yanqing was left speechless.

Amazing.

A true genius.

Little Bai lazily rolled over, now perched on Snowball’s neck.

Disassembling mechs was nothing; its owner could dismantle an entire research facility single-handedly.

Si Fuqing glanced at it indifferently, and Little Bai immediately sat up straight, looking very well-behaved.

“Alright, I won’t disturb you anymore.” Sang Yanqing rubbed her temples. “But don’t overwork yourself. The exam is coming up soon.”

Si Fuqing made an OK gesture.

After Sang Yanqing left, she thoughtfully went to the front desk and ordered a fruit platter and some refreshments for Si Fuqing.

In previous years, the international joint examination didn’t receive as much attention as the college entrance exam, with its audience mainly being academic institutions.

But this year, with Si Fuqing participating, even the entertainment industry was closely following the international joint examination.

Si Fuqing’s fan page was still running a giveaway, which had been ongoing for seven days now.

[Who would have thought my wife would stand on the international stage because of esports and the international joint examination?]

[A career in film and television isn’t far off! She’s bound to shine in every area! Betting on her making it to the international top ten isn’t an exaggeration, right?]

[I admit that Si Fuqing isn’t a slacker; she’s an untouchable academic god who scored full marks in the college entrance exam. But let’s not forget, the international joint examination has geniuses from other countries. Can she really surpass them?]

[Si Fuqing’s fans shouldn’t be too arrogant. Don’t embarrass yourselves on the international stage.]

[Ever heard of humility? She’s not invincible domestically, so how could she be invincible internationally?]

The fans of Si Fuqing, however, remained unfazed by such comments.

They had a unified response:

[Admit it, you’re just jealous. Our Sister Si is the strongest.]

[Why aren’t you participating in the international joint examination? Is it because you don’t want to?]

Without needing any public relations efforts, Mousses managed to silence the haters.

Called back by her assistant, Sang Yanqing looked at the screen and sighed, unsure whether to feel happy or worried.

At least Si Fuqing’s fans could engage in a few rounds of verbal sparring with the haters. Sang Yanqing, on the other hand, had no opportunity for such battles and found herself a bit bored.

Sang Yanqing opened her laptop, logged into the Oracle game, and began controlling her newly created character to gather herbs in the wild.

The next day, the news of Si Fuqing participating in the international joint examination spread throughout the hotel, and the candidates from other countries also got wind of it.

However, they recognized Si Fuqing primarily because of her identity as NINE the God.

A line had formed outside the small villa where Si Fuqing was staying, with people waiting to get her autograph.

Some even wanted her to carry them through a game dungeon, but knowing that the international joint examination was the next day, the candidates understood not to disturb her too much at such a critical time.

Si Fuqing was always generous to her fans, signing autographs for hours without complaint. Just as she was about to wrap things up, someone else entered.

She signed her name on another photo, then looked up and paused as she extended it.

“Little miss.” In Qiushi supported Old Madam In as they approached, smiling broadly. “Look who’s here.”

Si Fuqing blinked in surprise. “Grandma?”

“Yes,” Old Madam In replied with a wide grin. “Qingqing, you must be hungry after signing autographs for so long. I brought some snacks from home that are beneficial for evolved beings.”

Si Fuqing immediately jumped down from her lounge chair, her fingers subtly forming a few talismans to summon some floating spirits as temporary shikigami to guard the villa.
