The warm afternoon sunlight streamed through the large floor-to-ceiling windows, casting into the room.
Everything before her eyes was bright and gentle.
Yet, Xing Chen, emitting a cold aura and a forbidding demeanor, stood in stark contrast to it all.
He was aloof and solitary, exuding an air that seemed to overlook everything beneath the heavens!
Ran Xiangsi sat in the distance, silently observing him...
They say a woman’s heart is as inscrutable as a needle at the bottom of the sea, but right now, she felt that a man’s heart was the true enigma, okay?
She totally couldn’t figure out what he was up to!
As she was puzzling over it, the office door opened once more.
In walked Xie Jiaqi, carrying a laptop, looking quite disheveled.
Xie Jiaqi glanced at Ran Xiangsi, then walked straight to Xing Chen, and apologized profusely.
"I’m sorry, President Xing, we... can’t crack the virus planted on your computer."
Although he was very reluctant to admit such a defeat, Xie Jiaqi and his entire team had already exhausted their efforts.
This virus wasn’t even seen on the market; how could they possibly crack it in such a short time?
Xing Chen seemed to have anticipated this result long ago. Without lifting his head, he simply said, "Give it to her."
That "her" was obviously referring to Ran Xiangsi.
In this vast office, aside from Xing Chen and Xie Jiaqi, only Ran Xiangsi was present.
Xie Jiaqi turned to look at Ran Xiangsi, then respectfully said to Xing Chen, "Yes, President Xing."
After speaking, he carried the laptop over to Ran Xiangsi.
After all, Xie Jiaqi didn’t know that the virus on Xing Chen’s computer was actually planted by Ran Xiangsi, so he very considerately explained it to her.
"Consultant Ran, this virus is very peculiar. My colleagues and I have been investigating it for a long time but couldn’t find its source, so..."
Ran Xiangsi had been petrified for a minute...
Of course! Her virus was directly written into the motherboard’s program; how could ordinary people find it?
As a genius in The Matrix, she excelled at taking people by surprise, okay!
If Xie Jiaqi could crack it so easily, would there be any point in her continuing?
Oh, wait... Ran Xiangsi suddenly slapped her forehead and quickly regained her thoughts!
Now was not the time to be proud...
Ran Xiangsi weakly raised her eyes to look at the still calm and composed Xing Chen, her heart almost bleeding.
She seemed to understand why Xing Chen was acting this way. Nᴇw ɴovel chaptᴇrs are published on ɴovᴇl(F)ɪre.ɴet
"Um, Mr. Xie, could you tell me how you discovered this virus?" Ran Xiangsi paused and decided to get to the bottom of things!
"Well..." Xie Jiaqi hesitated for a moment but, out of admiration for Ran Xiangsi’s computer skills, lowered his voice and recounted the earlier incident where Xing Chen had an embarrassing moment during a video conference.
After hearing this, Ran Xiangsi wished she could slap herself twice!
Yesterday, when she planted the virus on Xing Chen’s computer, she was just doing it for fun...
That virus was a minor issue for her, just meant to tease Xing Chen.
Who knew he had such an important meeting today?
She seemed to have caused a huge problem...
No wonder Ping Le had urgently called for her, and then not said a word, resorting to cold treatment?
"Consultant Ran? Are you... okay?" Xie Jiaqi noticed that Ran Xiangsi was staring blankly in the direction of President Xing, her face suddenly turning pale, so he asked with concern.
