The Urban Dao Child.

Yang Dao came to the principal's office leisurely and climbed the stairs. The moment he came outside the office, he saw a girl standing at the door waiting for her turn to go inside. She was talking to the principal's peon with great familiarity. 

The two people were not aware of Yang Dao coming over, partly because they were immersed in their conversation and partly because the boy made no noise as he walked to them. Only when he stood close enough did, the conversation stopped. 

The girl was none other than Genie Jasper. She was wearing a low key stylish outfit. A one-piece cotton dress reaching her knees. The base of the dress was white, but it was printed with flowery prints. Yang Dao smiled at her and she did the same as she said, "Long time no see, Young Master Feng." 

Yang Dao replied, "Long time indeed, Miss Jasper. How have you been?" 

Genie smiled and asked, "Here to meet my mother?" 

Yang Dao almost blurted out, 'Is that not obvious? Why else I would be here?' controlling his impulse he said, "Yes, as the principal. It would be nice to have her attend the launch event of Neo-bot."

Genie nodded, as she replied, "Congratulations on the new product launch. I have seen the press release that day. It is impressive to have such a robot made in the Jewel Nation. Even the crypto nation does not have such an advanced piece of technology." 

Yang Dao heard the sincerity in her compliment and said, "Thank you for the praise. I appreciate it on behalf of my team and staff members." And he gave her a slight bow. 

Before the two people could converse, a light bell interrupted them. The peon said, "Genie, you can go inside." 

Genie nodded, she turned to Yang Dao and said, "You can join me if you want to." 

Yang Dao asked, "Will it not disturb you?" 

Genie smiled and said, "No, it is alright. Come on." 

The boy hesitated and then with a nod, he followed her inside the room. The scenery inside the room was the same as always. Aislinn Jasper was focused on reading some documents placed at her table while the two people came and stood up in front of her. She did not raise her head and asked, "What is it, Genie?" 

Genie took a deep breath and said, "That can you not recommend the start-up plan?" 

Aislinn Jasper sighed and raised her head. She was surprised to see Yang Dao standing behind her daughter, but she did not think too much. She said, "Genie, the college also has its policies. We cannot recommend your start-up to any investment companies. You know that if your venture fails, it will be accounted in the college's name. National College is a public institution and we are an educational institute. We cannot take part in business ventures."

Yang Dao on the side could figure out the head and tail of the conversation. It seems that Genie was seeking a recommendation to get her start-up plan started and highlighted to get herself some funds. Aislinn Jasper has been a reputable teacher and she was also a person earning well enough to live. However, she did not have the capital to support a business venture. 

He cleared his throat to attract the attention of the two ladies. When he realized that he has achieved his goal. He said, "Senior Genie, if you do not mind, you can send a detailed business proposal stating your business idea and estimated future growth in the related market to the Dao Investment group. Then if the proposal passes the screening test, I can invest some capital based on the test result. We can also provide you feedback and tips to alter your plan for better if any loopholes are found.

How does that sound to you?" 

The pair of mother and daughter were surprised by his sudden proposal. They did not expect Yang Dao to stretch out a hand. You know this discussion had put a lot of stress on the two of them. This sunshine boy came and brought them the warmth and relief they have been seeking these past few days. 

Aislinn saw her daughter stuck in a daze and said, "Genie, did you forget your manners?" 

Genie reacted and bowed to Yang Dao, "Thank you very much for the opportunity. You will not regret this moment." 

Yang Dao scratched the back of his head and said, "UMM, you can be at ease, please. I suggest that you deal with what is about to come with peace in your mind to enhance your work quality. The better the input the better the output." 

Aislinn Jasper was about to thank him too when the boy said, "Ma'am, can you please attend the launch event today? I have something that needs you to be present on the stage."

The principal asked, "What do you wish to do?" 

What Yang Dao said next almost made Aislinn Jasper faint from excitement. Although she did not show it on her face, her eyes were honest enough to describe the state of her mind. She never expected happiness to come so suddenly. If not for the sake of her image, she would have yelled that Yang Dao was the incarnation of God of Gifts. 

The boy was also looking forward to the result of his investment in both the college and Genie. He had been told by Icarus that Genie was a finance genius. So if this gamble pays off, it will be very helpful to Yang Dao's plans.

The classes finished for the day and a lot of students were already present in the college stadium. Yang Dao earlier wanted to hold the event in the square of the college but the people gathered were too many to hold, so the venue was changed. At this moment, under the gaze of thousands of students and faculty members, Aislinn Jasper stood on the podium in the center of the ground, surrounded by media people. 

Along with her stood, Mary, Yang Dao, Frieda Foster. A few big shots from the company marketing and publicity department. Yurika spoke in the mic. 

"Ladies and Gentlemen, we are grateful that you took out your precious time to attend the launch even of Neo-bot. Now, without any further delays. I would like to call on the mic, the president of Dao Technologies, Feng Yang Dao." 

The people started to clap their hands as Yang Dao stood up from the chair.
