Chapter 55: Past Events
There is only one way for Mizhizhi, she must choose a husband from the candidates designated by the elders as soon as possible.
She carefully analyzed all the candidates and mustered up the courage to meet these strangers in private.
But the result was not satisfactory.
Among the three, only Tang Licheng was willing to accept her conditions, enjoy the rights and obligations of the Mi family's son-in-law, but leave her the freedom to create.
The moment the contract was signed, Mizhizhi thought that she could finally live an independent and self-reliant life.
But she didn't know that this was just the beginning of her life tragedy.
Tang Licheng is an ambitious man with a sweet exterior but a bitter heart. He is extreme and stubborn. Although he is talented, he is unwilling to work hard and always likes to compare himself with others.
The people Tang Licheng compared himself with were his two best classmates:
Tang Jia's foreign colleague Ming En, and the current commander of the Seventh Legion, Evan Clarkson.
He always felt that his talent was not inferior to the other two, but his family background was not prominent and his financial resources were not enough to support his designs, so he failed to become famous.
All his misfortunes were due to the prejudice of others and his own lack of recognition of his talents.
Tang Licheng urgently needs an opportunity to prove himself, and marrying Mi Zhizhi is his chance.
As long as he does not interfere with or affect Mi Zhizhi's work, and gives birth to and raises two children together, he will be able to obtain control over half of all the investment dividends of the Mi family.
These funds are enough to support him to complete the design and production of one or two mechas every year.
Tang Licheng was moved!
He signed the contract without hesitation and quickly fulfilled his obligations. He and Mizhizhi had two children and actively devoted himself to the design and casting of mechas.
The child grew up healthily under Mizhizhi's care, and Tang Licheng didn't have to spend any effort.
He devoted all his time and energy to mecha design and casting. His inspiration burst out like a blowout and reached the peak of his creation.
But Tang Licheng's journey in the mecha industry was not smooth.
His mental strength is not strong, and he is not qualified to pilot a mecha. He only has the permission and experience to pilot a mecha virtually.
This resulted in many of Tang Licheng's mecha designs being castles in the air, but not practical when viewed from a distance.
Half of the mechas designed by Tang Licheng had no interest in them, and although the other half were put into production, the sales figures were dismal.
As if things weren't bad enough, when Tang Licheng was failing in his career, he heard that his "old classmate" Evan Clarkson was promoted and given a raise, reaching the peak of his life.
At the same time, Simingen's second daughter Sun Wei also showed her talent and was able to extract plant extracts at the age of five.
The two pieces of news caught Tang Licheng off guard.
Tang Licheng regretted it!
Looking at the two children who were standing next to Mi Zhizhi but were not close to him at all, Tang Licheng had a change of heart.
He suggested to Mizhizhi that he change the child's name.
Mi Zhizhi did not agree at first, but after Tang Licheng visited the elders of the Mi family one by one, the attitude of the elders suddenly became ambiguous.
One day, Tang Licheng took Tang Chengjia and Tang Hongjia out for a trip, and the attitude of the elders of the Mi family suddenly changed. They actually nodded and agreed to this outrageous request.
Michelle was very confused!
Finally, at the suggestion of a senior artist, he found the two children to find out what was going on.
You don’t know until you ask, and you’ll be shocked when you ask.
It turned out that when Tang Licheng took the two children out that day, they did not go to the amusement park he mentioned, but to the Mi Family Ancestral Hall.
The two children did not get to play on the amusement facilities that Tang Licheng had promised them, but instead took an entire day of artistic talent tests.
The reason why the elders readily agreed to Tang Licheng's request was not only because of the generous gift Tang Licheng promised, but also because the two brothers did not have the artistic talent that the elders of the Mi family expected.
At this moment, Mizhizhi's world suddenly collapsed.
She didn't know whether she should feel sorry that her child had no artistic talent and could not enjoy the rich resources of the Mi family; or should she be glad that her child had no artistic talent and would not have to repeat her sad life.
She was overwhelmed with sorrow and joy, and was speechless for a long time.
In the end, it was the young Tang Chengjia who stood up, comforted her, and made the decision.
Five-year-old Tang Chengjia said firmly: "No matter what my brother and I's surnames or names are, we are your children, aren't we?"
Mizhizhi finally woke up from her dream and suddenly realized that the ones who were hurt the most in this incident were not herself, but the two young children who were judged to have no artistic talent.
Mi Zhizhi agreed to Tang Licheng's request to change the two children's names, but also put forward two additional conditions:
First, Tang Licheng must respect the choices of the two children. Second, in order to ensure the children's mental health, he will not have any more children until these two children reach adulthood.
Tang Licheng readily agreed and changed the names of his two children to Tang Chengjia and Tang Hongjia.
He thought that after the disapproval of the elders of the Mi family and his long-term ideological indoctrination, the children would definitely inherit his legacy as he wished and defeat the two "old rivals" in the old business of mecha design and casting.
Who knew that things would not develop as he expected.
The eldest son Tang Chengjia not only did not inherit his mantle and insisted on learning weapon design, but also "surrendered to the enemy" and became Simingen's son-in-law.
The second son, Tang Hongjia, studied in the mecha design department for twelve years, but eventually chose to stay in school to teach, and even chose to cross majors to become a mecha driving instructor.
Tang Licheng is crazy!
Thinking about the agreement he made with Mi Zhizhi, Tang Licheng firmly believed that the two children's rebellion must be related to Mi Zhizhi.
He can't do anything to Tang Chengjia and Tang Hongjia, but he can control Mi Zhizhi!
Didn’t they say that Tang Chengjia and Tang Hongjia would not have any more children before they reached adulthood?
Now, the time is ripe, they can have a baby!
This is a reasonable and legal request!
Mizhizhi said weakly: "They said that we only need to take a cell and cultivate it artificially!"
Tang Hongjia rubbed his temples and felt that he couldn't communicate with Mi Zhizhi. He raised his hand and made a video call to Tang Chengjia, urging him to hurry up.
Tang Chengjia listened quietly, and only said one sentence from beginning to end, "Lock the door and wait for me to pick someone up!"
Tang Hongjia shook his laptop and said to Mi Zhizhi, "That's my opinion, too!"
Mi Zhizhi stared blankly at Tang Hongjia locking the door, then looked at Tang Chengjia's skilled starship driving on the projection screen, and silently shut her mouth.
No matter how strict the main planet's entry and exit management is, it cannot stop weapon designers with special passes.
It only took Tang Chengjia one hour to get from Bartram to the main planet through a special channel.
As soon as Tang Chengjia entered the door, he ordered Tang Hongjia and him to clean out the entire Tang family and pack up all the things belonging to Mi Zhizhi. He left a message saying "Come to the Weapons Research Institute to find me if you have any problems" and took Mi Zhizhi back to Qingcheng Star.
When Tang Licheng and the elders of the Mi family received the letter, they saw only an empty house with the door wide open.
Tang Licheng was furious and immediately went to the Union University to ask Tang Hongjia for the person.
