"Boss? Did something happen to your wife?"
When Ji Yuzhi walked towards Zheng An and the others, his expression had returned to calm. He looked at all the chat logs, text messages, and phone calls Zhen Tian had sent him over this period and asked, "Where's Wen Jiujiu?"
"Jiu Jiu is in the studio. She's in charge of the technology and she's never on-site."
"...Oh right!"
Ji Yuzhi put away his phone, stood still, and took a deep breath: "Let's go back to the studio."
As soon as they arrived at the studio, Wen Jiujiu came over and asked, "Boss, I heard you were looking for me?"
Zheng An, being a chatterbox, told Wen Jiujiu about the matter in the car.
"Okay, come with me."
The two figures disappeared from the office.
Zhao Anran coughed twice while sitting in her seat, her face flushed an unnatural red. Her gaze, however, followed the two figures to the door of Ji Yuzhi's office.
"How are you? Still burning up?" Feng Li heard the voice and looked at her with concern.
"Yeah, I'm fine." Zhao Anran gave a weak smile.
"Should we go to the hospital to get it checked out?" Zheng An asked.
"No."
Zhao Zeyuan glanced at Zhao Anran and then looked away.
"Boss." Wen Jiujiu closed the door to Ji Yuzhi's office.
"Okay, sit down." Ji Yuzhi leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes, and furrowed his brows.
Wen Jiujiu didn't know what she had done wrong, and seeing Ji Yuzhi's expression, she felt a little uneasy.
"If I give you a link, can you find the source code?" Ji Yuzhi lowered his hand only after feeling a bit of relief in his head.
"Can."
"Is it possible to avoid being tracked?"
"Of course, boss, I'm not bragging. When it comes to counter-tracking, none of the guys in our department can beat me!" Wen Jiujiu spoke with particular confidence about her major, her eyebrows and eyes beaming.
"Hmm, how long will it take?"
"It depends on the opponent's defensive capabilities; it will take at least an afternoon."
"good."
Wen Jiujiu opened the door to Ji Yuzhi's office, and just as she was about to step out, she suddenly turned back and asked cautiously, "Boss, are you feeling unwell? Do you need some medicine?"
"It's alright, go out."
"Oh, okay."
Zhao Anran watched Wen Jiujiu come out and naturally heard Ji Yuzhi's uncomfortable words. She got up to go inside.
Wen Jiujiu rolled her eyes, but out of consideration for her illness, she didn't say a single sarcastic word.
"Yuzhi, are you feeling unwell?" Her gentle voice disappeared behind the door.
Zheng An scratched his head and asked, "Does An Ran like our boss?"
"You just realized that?" Feng Li raised an eyebrow.
"Holy crap, really?" Zheng An jumped up: "So she's trying to steal her sister-in-law's boyfriend!"
Zhao Zeyuan glanced at him: "Idiot!"
"What do we do? Whose side are you on?" Zheng An stroked his chin, pondering. "Although my sister-in-law is cute, An Ran and the boss seem to be a better match. A pair of duo? A perfect couple."
"You talk too much nonsense." Wen Jiujiu happened to hear this and, without any hesitation, smashed the folder over Zheng An's head: "Worthy, worthy my ass. Zhao Anran doesn't deserve the boss. Serves you right for talking nonsense, serves you right for talking nonsense..."
"No, what are you talking about? I was just saying it offhand." Zheng An was so startled by her slap that he ran away with his head in his hands. "If you believe me, ask Feng Li and the others if they also think An Ran is a better match."
"I'm on Zhen Tian's side," Zhao Zeyuan said before leaving.
“Me too…” Feng Li smiled.
"Damn it, you two heartless bastards."
"Let's see if you dare to spout any more nonsense..."
"Wrong, wrong."
When Zheng An returned with a face full of injuries, he said to his two roommates with a mournful expression, "Didn't you guys also admire Senior An Ran's work ability? Why did you stab yourselves in the back at this time?"
"Work ability is work, and has nothing to do with anything else." Feng Li smiled as always: "That's all."
For example, character.
He didn't say it.
In the studio, all that matters is ability; what does anything else have to do with them?
"What Yuzhi likes is the best." Although Zhao Zeyuan was indifferent, he saw things most clearly.
"You all make me seem shallow." Zheng An shut himself up.
Wen Jiujiu overheard their conversation and glanced at Feng Li and Zhao Zeyuan unexpectedly. She began to change her opinion of the two.
That makes sense. People with high IQs like them who don't just study by rote should also have good emotional intelligence. The boss won't have misjudged them.
She smiled.
In the office.
"What's wrong?" Ji Yuzhi didn't answer Zhao Anran's question; instead, he asked in return.
Zhao Anran had no other intentions than to ask if he was feeling unwell. But when he asked, she still mustered her spirits and put on a gentle smile: "I'm fine. How did the event go today? I felt really guilty for not being able to attend because I wasn't feeling well, and I was afraid of causing trouble for everyone."
She spoke very eloquently.
It's as if everyone would be in chaos if she weren't here today.
Ji Yuzhi didn't want to get involved in the girls' scheming and simply gave a faint "hmm".
"You have a headache?" Zhao Anran noticed that Ji Yuzhi was pressing his head. "Let me massage it for you. I used to massage my dad's head all the time at home."
"No need." Ji Yuzhi coldly avoided her outstretched hands.
“Yu Zhi…”
Zhao Anran was quite embarrassed. At this moment, there were only the two of them in the room, and she became a little bolder.
"I just care about you."
"Zhao Anran!" Ji Yuzhi looked up at her, his gaze indifferent: "If you're sick, go home and rest. Going to today's event would only cause trouble. If you have nothing else to do, just leave."
"Yuzhi, I..."
"Don't make me say any more, get out."
He was only willing to give Zhao Anran a second chance because of her abilities, hoping she wouldn't cross his bottom line.
Zhao Anran opened her mouth, feeling embarrassed and sad, and then turned and left.
Ji Yuzhi let out a breath and relaxed his tense body.
Pay back the money first.
Ji Yuzhi transferred a sum of money to Zhen Tian, and the transfer record contained this sentence.
Zhen Tian did as she was told without asking why.
"What? Are they chasing you for payment again?" Ye Qingyan, taking advantage of her distance from the blackboard, turned to the side to speak to Zhen Tian.
"No, they just transferred money to me and told me to pay it back."
Zhen Tian glanced at the teacher, and only when she saw that the teacher wasn't looking in her direction did she boldly start fiddling with her phone.
A few moments later, customer service sent a message.
[Customer Service 1: It's been a pleasure working with you. Please come back if you need anything else!]
"Shameless! They weren't like this when they called and yelled at us." Ye Qingyan said angrily, "They shouldn't have paid us back. I don't believe they would dare to kill or commit arson again."
Zhen Tian breathed a sigh of relief; being threatened felt awful. She would never borrow money from that platform again, not even if she were beaten to death.
"Did your family say what to do?"
"No."
"Alright, Senior Ji is a man of great strategic thinking." Ye Qingyan chuckled dryly, then quickly turned her head away. She didn't want to hear Zhen Tian praising Ji Yuzhi. Her blood sugar was high.
"Yes, Zhizhi is the best..."
Well, I still couldn't dodge it.
