After dinner, Yang Dao washed his dishes. Even though Lisa insisted on doing it for him. He just ordered her not to. He said, "I am used to this. You wait, when I am done you can wash your dishes."

The maid was helpless. She even wanted to take back her thought that Young Master was nice but, after some careful contemplation. She found that Yang Dao was nice so the girl just followed his arrangements.

After the task was done, Yang Dao did not go off to bed. He went to his study and using the remote uplink, checked the progress of the project. His fingers punched on a key to scroll up and down the screen. This boy was an 'all-keyboard' person. After some skimming through he started to correct the errors and then his typing speed took off.

His fingers were dancing all over the keyboard. Usually, people dance when they listen to music but, Yang Dao's fingers danced and produced music. The typing produced rhythmic music filling the study to the brim. Lisa who was told to go back to her room and rest could not help but sit in her bed and listen to it.

The time flew by and the night bled with dazzling sunlight. Lisa fell asleep in her room last night listening to rhythmic music. She woke up with a smile. She stood up from the bed, went to the washroom, freshened up, and walked out of the room, ready to face the day with a faint smile on her face.

Just as she walked out to the living room. She was shocked to see a plate of food served and placed on the table beside it was a note. 'Going to college. reheat the food if it is cold.'

Lisa had a blush on her face. She did not expect Yang Dao to go out so early, and even prepared breakfast for her. She was dazed as she glanced at the food.

...

Yang Dao rode his bike 'Silence" to the college and stopped near the Cycling Club. He parked the bike on a stand and walked inside the clubhouse. Today everyone was present. Other than the usual team three girls wearing a sports tracksuit and Coach Gust was also present.

Everyone turned their gaze to Yang Dao, who had just entered. The boy took half a step back and asked with a confused gaze, "Am I late or did I do something?"

Coach Gust spoke, "You got us 4 hours of practice time on the track inside the college. You have done well"

Yang Dao shook his head and said, "It is not a big deal." his eyes fell on Ayaka Gust. He asked, "Why is senior Ayaka here?"

Coach Gust said, "I have to go to freedom nation for some work. Till then Ayaka will take over. She will follow you guys on the rides and she can train you better than me for the inter Uni. Tournament. The reason is that she can still ride the bike and has a better understanding of your young people."

Yang Dao nodded, to him it did not matter who coached. He will just learn everything. He spoke up in an urgent tone, "I need to participate in the debate competition later this week. So I will be calling in for a leave of absence that day. It was the principal herself who nominated me for this."

The coach nodded and approved his LOA. The team warmed up and changed into their spandex gear. They all rode their bikes to the track for practice. Coach Gust introduced Ayaka to the relevant administrators of the mechanical field while the team started to bike.

Yang Dao and Icarus rode in a pair separately from the team. Icarus spoke, "You finished your semester project?"

Yang Dao nodded and asked, "What about you?"

Icarus replied, "I am writing codes for a game." he smiled at the end. Yang Dao raised an eyebrow, "What game?" he asked.

Icarus said, "Poker and blackjack. I call it Card night. If it is successful, it can be used by people to play together, in multiplayer." his voice was getting low because this sort of game was very common and was only counted as passable semester projects.

Yang Dao asked, "How about you help me develop a segment of the program in my next project? You can submit that as a semester project. That way my work will be reduced and the efficiency will increase. What do you think?"

Icarus was surprised, he said without any hesitation, "Well, I am in. Tell me what do you want me to develop. I will try my best."

Yang Dao asked, "I want you to develop a sensor, that can judge and measure the distance between two cars on the road. Can you do that?"

Icarus asked, "Are you trying to write an automobile assistant?"

Yang Dao nodded, confirming his friend's thought. The two people started to discuss as they were riding and the pace of their bikes picked up slowly. Icarus was keeping up with Yang Dao and his cornering also followed the latter. It was almost as of two machines riding together in sync.

Actually, it was Yang Dao, who was slowly leading Icarus to keep pace with him. Gradually changing his stance and postures. On the sidelines, three girls stood watching the two people. The three girls were Kiya, and Sasha, the secretaries of the club, along with Ayaka Gust, the national cyclist, and their temporary coach.

Ayaka said, "I really want to get my bike and listen to what they are talking about. Icarus does not realize how Yang Dao is changing his pace and pattern slowly." her expression was very complicated.

The two boys were unaware of what their coach was thinking at this moment. They kept on riding and discussing their combined project. A couple of hours passed and they only stopped when they saw everyone else standing on the side.

Yang Dao beckoned Ray to his side as soon as he came to a stop. Ray asked, "What happened?" with a confused expression.

Icarus jumped in and told him about Yang Dao's idea. Ray was excited and then nodded. He told Yang Dao that he is in. The three decided to head to his place after the evening practice. After listening to Ayaka's pointers the group dispersed. Yang Dao took a shower in the locker room, changed into a fresh set of clothes, his training gear was disposed of in the washing machine in the club house.

Later the club secretaries will operate the washing machines and then hang the gear in the sun to dry. The boys then went to the classes. Yang Dao spent some time in the library to procure some research and study material regarding his debate competition. The day passed in a blink. After evening practice the three boys bid farewell to everyone. Yang Dao talked to Kiya for a bit, he said, "Why don't you come over to our workspace when you have some free time? You have a job as my secretary now."

Kiya smiled and said, "Ho, I thought I was a shield. Also, who am I to shield you from?"

Yang Dao thought for a bit and said, "Professor Kylie is a potential threat." his voice was serious. Kiya was shocked for a bit but then she started laughing loud.

The boy was surprised at this. Kiya looked really beautiful right now. Her hair was brushed by a gust of wind as she was laughing. It was as if the time slowed down for Yang Dao. He only snapped out of his daze when Kiya waved her hand in front of him. She asked him what happened, he honestly replied that she looked very beautiful and he was dazed.

Who knew that her face would also turn slightly pink and then she would run away? The three boys rode back to the sapphire residency. Yang Dao let the two in where the mainframe computer was set up. He then distributed the task.

Icarus was responsible for the software development. Ray was to test the software with his car. Yang Dao wanted to allocate some funds to Icarus to buy some equipment to manufacture the sensor. Icarus then said, "Oi, this is my investment. I will buy shares in the future."

Yang Dao shot him down and said, "You will only get the dividends. No voting. That too only five percent." Icarus left clenching his chest. Ray, on the other hand, left with an appointment letter in his hand. He was now an employee of Dao Technologies.

The president called Mary and got this letter faxed to his place in five minutes. None of the people had any complaints about this arrangement. The reason was that they all knew their capabilities and at this moment Dao(the human and not THE DAO) was lifting them as he grew more. The boy did all this unknowingly.

The boy sent them off, went upstairs, and found that Lisa was reading a book with a frown on her face. Yang Dao asked her, "What happened?"
