However, this industry is too professional, with high barriers to entry and huge investment. Moreover, he studied maintenance and principles. He knew the principles and how to repair, but he could only figure out how to make it himself.

Similarly, he is not from that industry, and all his knowledge is acquired from a learning machine. He may have advanced insights, but his foundation is weak. Once he talks with professionals in the industry, he will be exposed as a half-novice.

Even if you create an excellent product, it will probably be difficult to break into the market.

He had thought of all these unfavorable factors and was mentally prepared.

He knew very well that it would not be difficult to get rich by relying on the current noodle chain company, but it was completely impossible to become a business tycoon.

Therefore, no matter how difficult it is, he has to go.

At this time, he received compensation for the dream virtual device, gained the authority of a formal player, and enabled the playback function. Thus, he had a better choice.

In the second dream, in the shelter, he spent most of his time learning various knowledge, and didn't remember much. Now with the playback function, this is no longer a problem.

Compared with the fourth dream world, the second dream may have a slightly weaker technological level, but it also has high-tech in batteries, artificial intelligence, mechanical manufacturing, etc., which are far beyond the earth.

What he needs to do now is to find a project with broad prospects, relatively low initial investment and easy to promote.

This was not an easy job. Most of what he read at the time was theoretical knowledge, not practical knowledge. It was difficult for him to transform this theoretical knowledge into products alone.

He fast-forwarded to the corresponding position, pausing from time to time to think about how to monetize this part of knowledge. He read for several hours, but it was only one day's content.

He didn't leave until he was too sleepy, and he quickly fell asleep.

…………

A few days later, Chen Xu's narcolepsy finally improved. He discussed with his parents and decided to be discharged from the hospital.

The day after he was discharged from the hospital, his father, Chen Xinwen, went home first. He did not quit his job, but asked for leave from his boss to come here, leaving Zeng Wenli to take care of her son.

After returning home, Zeng Wenli went into the kitchen to cook. Chen Xu sat on the sofa in the living room with the TV on, but he was a little absent-minded, thinking about something.

Beside him, Chen Ziqi was staring at him.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Chen Xu asked, his thoughts disturbed by her.

Chen Ziqi crossed his arms over his chest and said, "You've been acting strange these past few days."

"What's wrong?" Chen Xu asked with a frown.

Chen Ziqi whispered, "Did you have a fight with your sister-in-law?"

Chen Xu was startled. He didn't know how she saw that. He subconsciously looked towards the kitchen and saw that his mother didn't pay attention to this side. He said, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

"Still trying to hide it from me?" Chen Ziqi snorted coldly, "I haven't seen you make a single phone call or send a single WeChat message in all these days. Every day you're either in a daze or writing something in a notebook. Also, when you were discharged from the hospital today, your sister-in-law didn't come to pick you up. If you say there's nothing wrong with you two, I won't believe it even if you kill me."

"Keep your voice down." Chen Xu glanced at the kitchen again. Since she had already seen it, there was no need to deny it. He said helplessly, "I think you are just idle, thinking about these things all day long."

"I'm concerned about you. If it were someone else, I wouldn't bother to care." Chen Ziqi rolled his eyes, sat closer, controlled his voice, and said, "Tell me what the problem is, and I'll help you with some advice."

Chen Xu said, "Don't ask around. I'll take care of it. Also, don't let your second aunt know about this. Do you hear me?"

"Tsk, even if you don't tell me, I can guess it." Chen Ziqi pouted and said, "Did she know about your relationship with Bai Jinxuan?"

This time, Chen Xu was really shocked, and almost blurted out "How did you know?"

Chen Xu knew that she was right. Given Luo Xiyun's personality, she had previously stated that as long as he broke off all ties with Yang Jinxia and Bai Jinxuan, she would not pursue the previous matters. This was already the limit of what she could do.

"Ziqi, Xiaoxu, it's time to eat. Go wash your hands." At this time, Zeng Wenli came out of the kitchen carrying dishes and shouted. The two stopped talking about this matter.

After dinner, Chen Ziqi took Chen Xu and said that they wanted to go downstairs for a walk to help digestion.

After they got downstairs, Chen Ziqi said, "From the looks of it, you're planning to give up on her."

Chen Xu ignored her and walked straight forward. Having stayed in the hospital for such a long time, he was very concerned about the noodle shop business. It was a good opportunity for him to go and check out the first branch.

Chen Ziqi said angrily, "Chen Xu, I'm asking you a question."

Chen Xu turned his head and looked at her. Seeing that she was disrespectful, he wanted to teach her a lesson. However, thinking that she was also concerned about him, he let it go. He sighed and said, "What can I do?"

"Is there anything you can't do?" Chen Ziqi said unconvinced.

Chen Xu patted her shoulder and said, "You are still young, there are some things you don't understand, let's go."

"Aren't you just afraid of being criticized by others?" Chen Ziqi pushed his hand away and said angrily, "Isn't it just finding two girlfriends? What's the matter? Have you violated any law? Even if others find out, so what? Who will laugh at you? Can't you bear it if others say a few words about you out of jealousy?"

Chen Xu was a little surprised. He didn't expect her reaction to be so intense. This series of questions left him speechless.

After Chen Ziqi finished speaking, she had almost vented her anger and her tone softened. "You are always worried about this and that. You are worried about how others see you and about Sister Xiyun's situation. But what about you?"

As she spoke, she pointed at Chen Xu's heart and said, "Don't you feel bad at all about parting with Sister Xiyun?"

Chen Xu looked dazed. No one had ever said these words to him.

"Chen Xu, have you ever thought about what is most important to you? Is other people's evaluation of you more important than Sister Xiyun?"

"Let's go."

Chen Xu was silent for a while, then turned and left.

Seeing him like this, Chen Ziqi stomped his feet and followed him from behind.

…………

That night, Chen Xu tossed and turned and couldn't sleep. Chen Ziqi's words just now were like a hammer hitting his head. It was still buzzing in his mind, making him think a lot.

Even though he was unwilling to admit Chen Ziqi's evaluation of him, one thing touched him. He didn't want to lose any of Luo Xiyun, Yang Jinxia and Bai Jinxuan. So, for them, to what extent could he do?

In this world, there is no one who can take all the benefits.

If you want something, you are destined to lose something else.

It is too naive to think that everyone will accept it when playing with three women at the same time. It is foreseeable that, in addition to the resistance from the people around him, with Bai Jinxuan's identity, one day their affairs may be exposed to the public, and then he will have to face the criticism of the whole society.

Do I have the courage to face such a situation?

He thought a lot that night and faced his inner self for the first time, wanting to confirm what he wanted.
