Chapter 212
At the sight of Logan and Hank arguing, Carlisle could not help but shake his head with a smile.
After a few sips of his soup, he suddenly asked, “Hank, aren’t you drinking?”
“Not until I’ve completed the system.”
“Then, do you have any inspiration?”
“You really believe that I need to drink to become inspired?”
“I definitely do!”
“That was just an excuse to drink!”
Carlisle was speechless.
After finishing their meal, Carlisle returned to the game studio. Before taking his afternoon nap, he chatted with Wanda for a while.
Wanda happily boasted about successfully taking the first step in her entrepreneurial journey. She even asked Carlisle if he was lacking money. If he was, she offered to lend some to him interest–free.
Naturally, Carlisle was not lacking money. But even if he did, a few million dollars would not be enough.
The two of them chatted for half an hour until Wanda also decided to take a nap. After ending the conversation, Carlisle closed his eyes and fell into a deep slumber. He had been exhausted after running many errands lately.
Carlisle woke up in the evening and checked his phone. It was already 7:00 pm. Noticing a notification on his phone, he opened it and saw a message from Daniel.
“Carlisle, I’ve found a decent hair salon. Do you want to go for a wash?”
“You’re barely legal. Yet, you’re already looking for a woman?”
“I’m only going there for a hair wash. Who cares if you’re not coming along?”
“Daniel, I’ve got something to ask you. Is your dad in the semiconductor business?”
“Damn. How’d you know?”
Carlisle answered when Daniel immediately called him.
He heard Daniel helplessly sigh.
“I only wanted to hang out with you as an ordinary person. I never expected my identity would still be exposed. Well, then. I won’t pretend anymore. I am indeed a second–generation rich kid!”
Carlisle could not help but laugh.

“But not anymore, right? Isn’t your dad’s semiconductor company struggling?”
Daniel said nothing, feeling a little upset. If Terrence did not steal Ryan’s research papers, Daniel would not need to keep a low profile.
Carlisle beamed and asked, “Shall we go for dinner?”
Daniel said unenthusiastically, “Let’s go to A1 Seafood Restaurant. It’ll be my treat.”
Carlisle got up and washed his face. Then, he asked Francis to drive him to the restaurant.
By then, Daniel had managed to stop feeling so miserable. Still, he was no longer as cheerful as he was earlier. It would probably take him some time to feel better.
Carlisle shut his eyes as he roughly estimated his assets. He had about 267 million in assets.
He had invested a hundred million in the fisheries, 75 million in the three suppliers, 15 million to support Heath, and had given Gorden a hundred thousand dollars. He also had over a million in goods payments.
He would have about 75 million dollars left. That sum would be enough to purchase Daniel’s family’s
semiconductor company.
While it may be challenging to develop high–end chips, they could begin with producing low-end chips first. After all, the first step in chip development was to own a semiconductor company.
From his conversation with Terrence the day before, he learned that Terrence was clearly not on good terms with Daniel’s family. As the Wind Corporation continued to expand rapidly, it would undoubtedly suppress Daniel’s family’s semiconductor company.
This was also why Carlisle had guessed that Daniel’s status as a second–generation rich kid was no longer valid.

had even invited Shane along.
Carlisle smiled as he said, “You’ve ordered so many dishes. Daniel, you’re too generous!”
Daniel rolled his eyes.
“Since you already know my identity, stop making fun of me. If I weren’t short of money, I wouldn’t have invited Shane only!”
