Chapter 25: 023 My child is really awesome

Editor: Henyee Translations

On the hacked screen, a line of blood-red, creepy characters appeared, and the computer emitted ghostly wails and howls.

[Little friend, who are you to him?]

Ying Zijin’s expression showed no fluctuation, just a slight raise of her eyebrows.

Even watching a drama, she seemed to have really picked up someone’s knack for attracting trouble.

She lowered her gaze, raised her hand, and began typing in the dialogue box.

[And who might you be?]

On the other side of the ocean, in some basement, a person eating instant noodles glanced at the message.

Is this girl stupid?

How could he possibly tell her that?

[I am a hacker.]

“Hacker?” Ying Zijin appeared to remember something, “Then wait a moment, one hour.”

[?]

A large question mark dominated the screen.

Ying Zijin fished out a book she had bought earlier from her backpack and started reading it, unconcerned about the still-darkened computer screen.

She read quickly, flipping through more than a dozen pages a minute as if merely browsing.

[What are you reading?]

There was no reply, and the curiosity on the other end was killing him.

After infiltrating this computer, he naturally had control over the camera and all other devices.

So he zoomed the camera in and saw the title, ‘Basics of Computer Science for College Students’.

“…”

[You’re a college student? You don’t think that by finishing this book, you could break my intrusion, do you?]

What a joke, did he not know what ‘Basics of Computer Science for College Students’ contained?

Nothing but basic operations for software like Word and PPT, plus a detailed explanation of computer chips.

The girl continued to read her book silently, as if deaf to the world.

The camera caught the image of her long lashes, which resembled the delicate wings of a butterfly, fluttering lightly.

Her skin was extremely white, as fine and soft as coagulated cream, with a translucent quality.

Her black hair spread out shimmering in the sunlight.

She was stunningly beautiful, almost breathtakingly so, making it nearly impossible to look away.

Suddenly, an impractical thought emerged on the other end—

Could it be that he had taken a liking to this young girl?

But as soon as this thought arose, it was dismissed.

Impossible.

Tsk, he wanted to see what would happen after an hour.

The basement was piled high with instant noodle boxes when Ying Zijin finally made her move, as he started to eat his third bowl of instant noodles.

She put down the book and looked up.

Her slender fingers rested on the old-fashioned keyboard, tapping quickly, and in less than half a minute—

All of a sudden, everything went dark in that basement halfway around the world.

“Beep Beep Beep!”

An urgent and frantic beeping began.

“Shit!”

He spat out his noodles in shock, staring at the ten-plus computers that were out of control.

But he quickly snapped to action and began counterattacking, trying to restore the computers to normal.

What was haunting, though, was that no matter what code he entered, there was no response.

“That’s impossible…”

Cold sweat broke out, and the instant noodles no longer appealed.

He couldn’t force these computers to shut down; several tasks were in progress and couldn’t be interrupted—he could only—

[Boss, I was wrong, please spare me.]

[Sister, sister, I still need to make a living.]

[I’m on my knees, really, I am. Sister, you’re the real hacker, I’m nothing but a fart in front of you.]

Seeing this line, Ying Zijin yawned and replied.

“`

“[You’re overthinking it, I’m not a hacker.]”

She hadn’t been exposed to computers, this new technology, but thanks to her ‘Divine Calculation’ ability, after understanding computers from books, she could parse their internal structures, which was why she always learned things quickly.

She directly attacked the source, which wasn’t something that could be resolved with code, completely different from what hackers do.

At this moment, two more sentences appeared on the screen, accompanied by an emoticon.

[Big shot, please, I was just curious about you, I really didn’t mean anything by it.]”

[Sister, sister, look at me acting all cute, can you let me off the hook?]”

Ying Zijin slightly raised her eyebrows.

She knew the hacker who had invaded her computer had ties with Fu Yunshen, and in a way, had helped her.

But he disturbed her drama watching, and she was not pleased, nor did she want him to be happy.

However, it had been enough fun for a while.

Ying Zijin’s eyes narrowed as she typed at a leisurely pace.

[‘Little friend’ is not a term you can use.]”

[There won’t be a next time.]”

After replying, she released control over the other computer.

She then leaned back in her chair, sipping milk tea, and continued watching her drama, lazy and content.

Little did she know that on the other end, she had caused an explosion, with the person’s mentality crumbling into a landslide, infuriated enough to hack into another computer.

[What the hell kind of freak did you get me involved with?]”

[Is she poisonous or what?]”

[Do you know what she did?]”

When Fu Yunshen received these three messages, he was brewing tea.

The mist from the tea blurred the deep-set features of the man, like a vast cloud veiling the sky’s rosy light.

It couldn’t hide his handsome looks, which seemed even more distinguished.

Fu Yunshen glanced at the computer; in just that second’s time, three more lines appeared.

[She finished ‘Introduction to Computers for College Students’ in an hour and then counter-hacked my computer!!!]”

[Damn, what kind of humiliation is this???]”

[I’m someone who has hacked into Lorentz Bank and Norton University!!!]”

The triple punctuation marks showed just how angry he was.

Fu Yunshen raised his brows, quite surprised.

After drying his hands, he finally replied.

[My little one is really talented.]”

A single sentence made the other side explode even more.

[Get lost!!!]”

[I’ve only been played by you two freaks; why do you troublemakers come out to harm others?]”

[I’ve decided, I’m going to sell all your information to people on the hit list and let them take you out.]”

Fu Yunshen curled his lips into a lazy smile.

[Go ahead, sweetheart.]”

Jiang Corporation.

On the 27th floor, inside the office.

Jiang Moyuan loosened his tie and sat down, staring at the green scenery below, he said tiredly, “Report on the recent matters.”

“Yes, Third Master,” the secretary flipped open the folder, “The Jiang family’s investment in ‘Youth 101’ has concluded, making dozens of times profit, although there’s a lot of criticism online.”

‘Youth 101’ was Hua Country’s first hundred-person talent show. Several wealthy families involved in the entertainment industry from the Imperial Capital had invested, and with movie stars and divas boosting it, it was very popular, bringing the Jiang family along for the ride.

Jiang Moyuan hummed indifferently, clearly uninterested.

The secretary, understanding, flipped to another file: “Old Master Fu’s health is deteriorating, everything is normal with the Zhong Family, and there’s interaction between the Ying Family and the Imperial Capital’s Mu Family…”

As he heard about the shifts in Shanghai City’s landscape, Jiang Moyuan clasped his hands together, his expression waxing and waning unclearly.

“Third Master, there’s one more thing,” the secretary hesitated, recalling the Weibo post from the other day, “About Second Miss Ying…”

Before the secretary could finish, he was interrupted.

Jiang Moyuan raised his hand, his voice cold, “I don’t want to hear about her matters.”

He recalled Ying Zijin’s attitude towards him that day, and his heart grew colder.
