Chapter 175 Poverty (6)
6
The Beijing University special bus goes directly from the high-speed railway station to Beijing University.
The several hours' journey did not dampen An Yu's interest. He sat in the window seat, holding his schoolbag, looking at the scenery outside the window with a lively look, not blinking, for fear of missing any scene.
There are towering skyscrapers, a constant stream of cars and people, and the grand and majestic main entrance of the university.
Everything seemed so novel to him.
Half an hour later, the bus stopped at the north gate of Peking University, and students from various majors were already waiting inside the gate.
An Yu put on his schoolbag and moved his luggage down. He was so busy looking out the window that he almost hit his foot.
Although he was almost injured, he still grinned and smiled foolishly.
Zhu Qingchen didn't rush him and waited for him to come slowly.
An Yu stood on tiptoe and found the history department emblem that he had seen countless times: "Teacher, it's over here!"
"Oh, over here." Zhu Qingchen pretended that he had just seen it and accompanied him over.
An Yu dragged his luggage and walked forward quickly: "Hello, I'm a freshman in the history department."
"Welcome, welcome. Wait here for a moment. When we have five students together, we will go and register together." The students saw Zhu Qingchen and shouted again, "Teacher Zhu, why are you here too?"
Zhu Qingchen smiled and patted An Yu on the shoulder: "I took a lot of effort to get this student from Tsinghua University. I came here with him specially because I was afraid that he would change his mind at the last minute and be kidnapped to the next door again."
Zhu Qingchen deliberately did not mention An Yu's family situation, but only said that he had good grades and was very popular to save his face.
The students didn't think much about it, but looked at An Yu with a little more surprise and admiration: "Too strong, I wish the teacher would go and pick him up in person."
An Yu smiled shyly: "No, compared with other students, I am still far behind."
Although An Yu is introverted, the other students are very enthusiastic and they quickly become friends.
Before long, five new students were gathered.
The freshmen dragged their luggage and followed the welcoming seniors obediently. An Yu squeezed in the middle, answering greetings from classmates and parents. The group of people looked like a group of little ducks.
Zhu Qingchen escorted An Yu all the way, ensuring that he registered smoothly, got his campus card, and then took him to the dormitory.
An Yu was a little embarrassed: "Teacher, we are already at school, I can do it myself."
"How can that be possible?" Zhu Qingchen said seriously, "Everyone has a parent accompanying them, and you have to have one too. The teacher will accompany you back to the dormitory and put your luggage away. Then we will go to the school supermarket to buy some daily necessities, and then we will go to the cafeteria to eat."
"I can do it myself..."
As soon as he arrived downstairs of the dormitory building, Zhu Qingchen saw an extremely familiar figure.
After not seeing each other for two months, Yu Bai greeted the teacher with tears in his eyes as soon as he saw him: "Teacher!"
Zhu Qingchen nodded to him and said, "The dormitory of the Finance Department is across the street. What are you doing here?"
Yu Bai smiled sheepishly: "My eldest brother asked me to come. He said that Teacher Zhu has a new student and needs my help, so I came here."
Oh boy, another villain.
However, Zhu Qingchen changed his mind and felt that Yu Bai and An Yu were indeed a good match.
One funded the scumbag, and the other was funded by the scumbag, so why not kick out both scumbags and let them pair up?
Zhu Qingchen thought so and introduced them to each other.
"This is Yu Bai, a junior student in the Department of Finance, who once sponsored an ungrateful person."
"This is An Yu, a freshman in the history department. She was once sponsored by...someone who is hard to explain."
Yu Bai extended his hand to An Yu, and An Yu extended his hand and shook hands with him gently.
"Hello, I'm Yu Bai. You can come to me if you have any problems in the future. What Mr. Zhu meant just now is that I am more...helpful."
"Hello, I'm An Yu."
Zhu Qingchen simply asked Yu Bai to take An Yu upstairs to put the luggage. After all, he was a teacher, and An Yu always had to get to know his classmates and expand his social circle. If he always followed her, An Yu might not feel comfortable.
Yu Bai responded, took An Yu's suitcase and helped him carry it upstairs.
After the two of them put down their luggage and went down the stairs, Yu Bai put his hand on An Yu's shoulder and jumped down the stairs.
An Yu was shorter than him, so he could lend him a hand.
Realizing that he was being a bit rude, Yu Bai quickly withdrew his hand and quietly observed An Yu's reaction.
An Yu looked calm, as if he hadn't noticed anything at all.
Yu Bai breathed a sigh of relief, he was scared to death.
In the past, he sponsored Song Huaishu, but he was so difficult to please. He always complained that his self-esteem was hurt and told him not to play rich people's games with him. This made him feel so helpless that he couldn't do anything.
Fortunately, An Yu is different. An Yu is just a little more introverted and not so stressful.
Seeing that the two of them got along well, Zhu Qingchen felt relieved and asked Yu Bai to take people to the school supermarket to buy some things.
Yu Bai pounded his chest and assured: "No problem, teacher, don't worry, I will definitely make clear arrangements for you, little brother."
This sounded strange, but An Yu nodded: "Well, teacher, don't worry, I can do it myself."
Yu Bai took An Yu's hand and the two of them were like good friends: "Then teacher, we'll leave first."
"Um."
As the people walked away, Zhu Qingchen could still vaguely hear Yu Bai's loud voice: "Do you want to eat first or go shopping? The supermarket is full of people now. Did you get your meal card? What do you want to eat? How did you get here?"
An Yu's voice was lowered, so Zhu Qingchen couldn't hear it.
He looked at the two students' backs as they left with satisfaction. While there were not many people around, he went to the cafeteria to pack up a huge portion of maocai and carried it back to the teachers' apartment.
Zhu Qingchen took the elevator upstairs, opened the fingerprint lock, and returned to the apartment.
As soon as he got home, he saw an extremely resentful man sitting on the sofa in the living room.
Even more resentful than when we met at the high-speed rail station.
Zhu Qingchen raised the maocai in his hand towards him.
The villain stood up and took the box. "Zhu Qingqing, if I hadn't sent Yu Bai to take over that student, you wouldn't have planned to come back, right?"
"What do you mean by taking over? That's not a nice thing to say. He is my close and caring top student." Zhu Qingchen held his arm, stepped on his feet, kicked off his shoes, and put on the slippers that Yu Xingzhou had prepared long ago.
The luggage that Zhu Qingchen brought back from his business trip was placed in the living room.
There were hand towels and warm water on the coffee table, cushions on the floor, and the TV was turned on and tuned to the cartoon channel.
Everything is ready, just waiting for Zhu Qingchen to come back.
Yu Xingzhou knew the password to his house. During the two months that he was away from Jinghua, Yu Xingzhou came to help him clean the house.
They met at the high-speed rail station just now. Zhu Qingchen was too lazy to bring his luggage, so he gave all his things to Yu Xingzhou and asked him to bring them back for him, leaving him empty-handed.
Zhu Qingchen sat down at the coffee table, picked up the water cup in one hand and the remote control in the other, and began to choose a cartoon to watch while eating.
Yu Xingzhou brought out the cooked rice and opened a large pot of maocai.
Zhu Qingchen asked: "Why don't we use our own plates? This way it will be more ceremonial."
Yu Xingzhou said calmly: "I don't want to wash an extra bowl."
That makes sense.
The opening theme of the cartoon sounded, Zhu Qingchen put down the remote control and moved towards Yu Xingzhou.
Yu Xingzhou was eating when he was startled by his sudden approach and almost dropped his bowl.
"Zhu Qingqing, what are you doing?"
"Li, you missed me so much that you urged me to come back every day and even went to the station to pick me up."
Zhu Qingchen seemed to be stating a fact, but his tone was slightly raised and a little boastful.
He repeated again: "Li, you missed me."
Yu Xingzhou turned his head and met Zhu Qingchen's sparkling eyes.
He turned back, cleared his throat, remained calm, and said calmly: "Yes, I miss you."
"It's nothing. I was afraid that you didn't know that I knew you missed me, so wouldn't that be in vain?"
"Stop saying those jingles." Yu Xingzhou stuffed the bowl and chopsticks into his hands, "Eat."
"Oh." Zhu Qingchen scooped up a piece of luncheon meat, put it on the rice, took a bite, and asked, "By the way, Song Huaishu and Bo Minghan..."
"Let's talk about it after dinner. Can you still eat when you talk about them?"
"That's right." Zhu Qingchen agreed and nodded.
Two people sat at the coffee table, eating and chatting.
"The people in Yunyan are quite simple. By the way, do you know Li?"
"Know what?"
"There's actually a Taifu Temple over there. I heard that there's a parade of gods during the winter solstice." Zhu Qingchen sighed, put down his chopsticks, and said sadly, "Why don't I have a temple? I'm the Taifu of the Crown Prince."
Yu Xingzhou paused and said, "If it is a temple for sacrifice, you can't say you don't have it."
Zhu Qingchen turned his head and opened his eyes wide in disbelief: "Li, what do you mean?"
"It's nothing."
"In addition to setting up a longevity tablet for me, you also built a temple for me?"
Yu Xingzhou didn't comment and continued eating seriously.
Zhu Qingchen shook him: "Speak up! Li, are you really going to build a temple for me? I know you are listening, speak up!"
Yu Xingzhou stood still: "Zhu Qingqing, eat quickly, this is not something you should ask."
Zhu Qingchen looked at him suspiciously, raised his chopsticks, and almost poked his cheek with them.
Wouldn’t Li really build a temple for him?
That shouldn’t be the case, right?
*
Finish lunch.
Zhu Qingchen curled up on the sofa, sorting out the specialties he brought back from Yunyan.
Yu Xingzhou simply cleared the dishes and sat down next to him.
Zhu Qingchen burped slightly: "Can we talk about Song Huaishu and Bo Minghan now?"
Yu Xingzhou asked: "Have you digested it?"
"Not yet, but I don't think I'll be sick enough to throw up."
"Yeah." Yu Xingzhou said calmly, "Song Huaishu has been interning at the Bo Group for the entire summer vacation, taking full charge of the project he sold. Song's father is still receiving treatment in a private hospital, and Bo Minghan even hired a very famous old doctor to take charge of his treatment."
Zhu Qingchen was shocked: "Why is Bo Minghan so nice to him? There can't be something between them..."
Zhu Qingchen suddenly thought of some bad things and felt like vomiting.
I just finished speaking and now I feel like vomiting.
Yu Xingzhou patted his back and said, "It shouldn't be the case. They have never met in any other place except the group and the hospital."
"Then why is Bo Minghan so good to him? If it's not true love, then Song Huaishu is useful to him?" Zhu Qingchen pondered for a moment, "Is it related to the algorithm that Song Huaishu sold him before? What kind of algorithm is that? Have you found out?"
"I found it. It's a common data screening algorithm."
"Anything special?"
"No." Yu Xingzhou said, "How powerful can a junior student make an algorithm? It's similar to the user screening and big data recommendations on the market now, similar to dating apps."
"So, any computer science student can come up with such an algorithm?"
"right."
"Then why did Bo Minghan insist on buying it from Song Huaishu?" Zhu Qingchen couldn't figure it out. "Do you know any other news?"
Yu Xingzhou said calmly, "This project has not been announced to the public and has always been top secret. This is all I can find out. What is certain at the moment is that this project is not a new product of the Bo Group. Bo Minghan may want to use it on a small scale."
Zhu Qingchen pondered, "The algorithm model is not special, so what is the real special thing? What makes Bo Minghan choose Song Huaishu?"
Suddenly, Zhu Qingchen had an idea: "I know!"
"What's special is Song Huaishu! What's special is the purpose of the algorithm! What's special is what Bo Minghan is going to do with this thing!"
"Bo Minghan wants to use this algorithm to do something that cannot be known by outsiders. If others find out, he might get into big trouble."
"It just so happens that Song Huaishu is a student who received a scholarship from the Bo Group. Bo Minghan asked him to take over this project and help him take care of his parents and treat his father's illness. This is also to better control him and let him do things for him."
"So what is it for?"
Zhu Qingchen raised his head, looked at the ceiling, and fell into deep thought again.
Suddenly, a bold and strange idea flashed through his mind at some point.
He was stunned for a moment, and whispered: "Could it be...he wants to use this algorithm on those poor students funded by the Bo Group?"
Zhu Qingchen's voice became smaller and smaller.
They all knew what this conjecture meant.
Bo Minghan sponsored poor students and gave out scholarships everywhere, even to small counties like Yunyan. It was also possible that he deliberately chose remote and backward counties because the students there were easier to control.
An Yu may not be the first one to be targeted, nor may he be the last.
Could it be that Bo Minghan has already set his sights on other poor students?
Bo Minghan has a unique hobby. Does he have a small circle of fans? Is this algorithm for those people?
Integrating the data of all poor students is like organizing a harem roster.
As long as this project is completed, Bo Minghan can manage those poor students like he manages his harem, and can even share this kind of thing with other people who have the same fetish as him as a tool for black trade.
Once this idea came up, it was unstoppable.
Zhu Qingchen was so scared by himself that he couldn't help but shiver and felt a chill on his back.
He turned to look at Yu Xingzhou: "What do you think? Is it possible?"
Yu Xingzhou looked at him quietly and nodded slightly: "I think so too."
"Then..." Zhu Qingchen was stunned, "What should we do now? Do you have a way to get the files of that top-secret project? We need more evidence."
"It's difficult to take action against Bo Minghan. I have arranged for someone to approach Song Huaishu."
“Is it effective?”
"Song Huaishu was very cautious. He never brought the project to his own computer. He always worked in the office of Bo's Group. The beauty trap didn't work. He sent several beauties, both men and women."
"..." Zhu Qingchen paused, "Why not just arrest him and beat him up? Torture him severely. I don't believe he won't confess." "Zhu Qingqing, this is a society ruled by law."
"The big villains are usually lawless criminals." Zhu Qingchen looked determined.
Yu Xingzhou smiled and said, "However, Song Huaishu is a very greedy person. Maybe the incident with Yu Bai left a big psychological shadow on him, and he will never complain about having too much money."
"Plus, Bo Minghan doesn't allow him to be too ostentatious, let alone show off outside, so he still dresses like a poor student. He feels very unbalanced."
Zhu Qingchen asked: "So..."
"So, I sent someone to ask him if he wanted to take private work, and he agreed."
Yu Xingzhou said: "At the beginning, it was just a few very ordinary program code outsourcing. He completed it very quickly, and we paid him very quickly. The cooperation was very pleasant."
"A few days ago, I sent someone to tell him that there was a big job that might be more complicated, but the money would be higher, and asked him if he wanted to take it. If he wanted to take it, we would send him the semi-finished product via a USB drive."
"I asked the technicians to install anti-virus software in the USB drive. Once it is plugged into a computer, it will automatically read and copy all the files. As long as he takes this job and plugs the USB drive into the computer of the Bo Group, we can get the evidence."
Zhu Qingchen asked hurriedly: "Did he answer it?"
"Not yet." Yu Xingzhou shook his head. "In order to make it seem real, outsourcing is real. It is indeed a bit difficult for Song Huaishu. We can't chase him to ask if he will take it, for fear that he will get suspicious."
"Yeah." Zhu Qingchen nodded.
This kind of thing really cannot be rushed. Yu Xingzhou spent a whole summer preparing for it and just gained Song Huaishu's trust. The more it is now, the more he needs to remain patient and take things slowly.
Now all they can do is wait.
However, when Zhu Qingchen thought that Bo Minghan might have already attacked other students, he couldn't help but tremble slightly.
He didn't even know who these students were, what their names were, or where they were now. He had no way to rescue these students like he rescued An Yu. He could only pray that Bo Minghan didn't have time to take action.
Yu Xingzhou held his hand and gently loosened his fist to reassure him.
Zhu Qingchen raised his head: "I hope we guessed wrong."
Just at this moment, Yu Xingzhou's cell phone rang.
He picked up the phone and stared, "Song Huaishu agreed."
"Let me see." Zhu Qingchen leaned over.
Yu Xingzhou deliberately used a small account to contact Song Huaishu. Three days ago, he asked Song Huaishu if he would take the job. Today, Song Huaishu replied -
[Boss, I'll take this job]
Yu Xingzhou: [OK, deposit 10,000, I will send you the USB drive, finish it within one month, 30,000, overdue compensation, compensation for leaks]
He deliberately made his words sound scary, as if this outsourced work was very important, in order to cover up the real intention behind it.
Song Huaishu also replied: [Okay, thank you boss, we have cooperated so many times, please rest assured of my ability]
【Address: Jinghua University……】
Yu Xingzhou then sent a message to his assistant, asking him to send the USB flash drive from another place, also using virtual names and numbers.
After doing these things, Yu Xingzhou and Zhu Qingchen looked at each other.
Just wait.

On the other hand, An Yu, accompanied by Yu Bai, got a basic understanding of the school.
The two of them can be considered friends.
In the first week of school, An Yu, as a freshman, participated in military training on the playground. He seemed to have gotten a little tanned and looked more energetic.
Although he refused Bo Minghan's financial support, after school started, Bo Minghan still sent him messages from time to time.
The content of the messages was very serious, just asking him whether school had started and whether he was tired from military training. Bo Minghan never left any evidence.
An Yu remained polite and answered his questions simply.
Sometimes I simply didn’t answer, and would reply a few days later, saying that I was too busy with military training and accidentally forgot.
The trick of cold treatment was taught to him by Teacher Zhu.
After the military training, Bo Minghan wanted to invite him out for dinner. An Yu asked Teacher Zhu and politely declined.
After this, Bo Minghan seemed to retreat and did not contact him for a long time.
Until this day——
An Yu’s birthday.
Early in the morning, he received a message from Yu Bai: [Happy birthday, Xiao An! ]
He replied with a "thank you" and climbed down from his bed in the dormitory. His roommates also wished him a happy birthday.
An Yu smiled shyly and thanked them one by one.
When his roommates asked him how he planned to spend the day, he was a little hesitant.
He has never celebrated his birthday seriously since he was born.
An Yu thought for a moment and said, "I'll treat everyone to dinner tonight and buy a cake."
He saw others celebrating their birthdays like this.
The next second, he received another message from Yu Bai: [Teacher Zhu specially asked me to arrange a birthday party for you. I have booked a private room in the restaurant. You can call your classmates and go directly to the north gate of the school in the evening. I will send a car to pick you up.]
An Yu was stunned and flattered.
He just didn't know how to get through it, and someone arranged it for him.
An Yu thanked him quickly and asked how much the restaurant reservation cost.
Yu Bai didn't reply to him.
An Yu sent a message to Teacher Zhu to thank him.
Zhu Qingchen also quickly replied: [Happy birthday, you can play with Yu Bai tonight, the teacher will not join in the fun, so as not to make you feel restrained]
[Be careful when playing outside. Call your teacher if anything happens. If you are underage, don’t drink alcohol or go to dangerous places.]
[Got it, thank you teacher]
An Yu is very well behaved, so Zhu Qingchen is not worried that he will go out and play.
I just remembered that in the original book, there was a plot on his birthday, so I gave him a few more words of advice.
Yu Xingzhou and Zhu Qingchen were huddled together. Seeing that he was worried, Yu Xingzhou said, "If you're worried, can I book another private room next to theirs? Can we also go to the restaurant to eat tonight?"
Zhu Qingchen's eyes lit up and he nodded vigorously: "Okay."
At night, An Yu put on a clean white shirt and went to the north gate of the school with his three roommates.
Yu Bai was sitting in a stretched luxury car and waved at them: "Get in!"
The three roommates couldn't help but sigh: "An Yu, you are too rich, aren't you?"
An Yu whispered, "This is the first time I know this, too."
Yu Bai smiled and said, "Teacher Zhu asked me to arrange An Yu's birthday in a grand and proper way. What do you think? An Yu, isn't this good?"
The group got on the car and went to the restaurant they had booked early in the morning.
As soon as he got off the car, An Yu felt a familiar gaze cast upon him.
An Yu turned his head, his expression changed slightly, and Yu Bai's expression also turned cold.
Song Huaishu and other employees surrounded Bo Minghan and said, "Boss Bo, please come this way."
Yu Bai turned his head away and cursed inwardly: "I should have chosen this restaurant earlier. How could it be such a coincidence?"!
