Chapter 196 Wuwu: What, you won't let me hug you?
"Does Wuwu know that her second brother might be dead?"
Jiang Jibai remained silent for a long time, then made a difficult sound from his dry throat.
"I haven't told her yet."
Shang Shiyan's face was pale. Considering the girl's feelings, he said, "The hacker alliance is still investigating and making a final determination."
"I'm just telling you this in advance so you can be mentally prepared."
"Um."
Jiang Jibai responded sullenly, his voice low and hoarse: "Don't tell Wuwu for now, it will affect her exam."
The girl is usually aloof and carefree, as if she doesn't care about anything.
Through this period of time together.
I discovered that she was very fragile inside, and especially sentimental.
"I know."
After hanging up the phone, Shang Shiyan called the hacker alliance again: "Continue the investigation, I need accurate results."
"Master Shang, what about the Heavenly Secrets Group..." The subordinate hesitated, looking troubled.
Let me put it this way.
The hacker alliance is the Tianji Group's primary assassination target; they will be killed the moment they show their faces.
The news of his "death" was given in a particularly cryptic manner.
They tried to break through the Tianji Group's satellite blockade, and as a result, they destroyed several firewalls.
Damn it.
A firewall costs at least tens of millions of dollars.
Fifteen minutes last night.
They found something, but also lost hundreds of millions.
"Regardless of the losses, continue the investigation."
Shang Shiyan clenched his fists, his voice as cold as ice in a deep valley, chilling to the bone.
"If the Heavenly Secrets Group continues to act so arrogantly, we'll send people to blow up their entire eastern base."
"..."
The subordinate dared not utter another sound; his heart was pounding.
Bomb the base?
What's the difference between this and shitting on the head of that old pervert from the Heavenly Secrets Group?
Southern Emperor and Northern Emperor...
If these two were to fight...
I dare not think about it.
——
In the bedroom.
Pei Jinwu had just finished showering when her phone rang.
The Celestial Secrets Group?
"Hello?"
Pei Jinwu didn't bother to change into her pajamas and casually tossed her headscarf aside.
"Boss."
On the other end of the phone, the subordinate sounded very frustrated. "There are two things I need to report to you."
"explain."
Pei Jinwu stood by the window, feeling as if her heart was being gripped tightly by a strong hand, and a vague unease crept in.
"The first thing is that the hacker alliance suddenly went crazy last night. In the middle of the night, they attacked our firewall."
"..."
Hearing about the hacker alliance made Pei Jinwu feel uneasy.
Just wait and see.
She'll have to take it all down sooner or later.
"It's breached?"
Pei Jinwu breathed calmly and asked in return, unhurriedly.
"No." The subordinate was frightened by his boss's calmness and said in a trembling voice, "We were so scared that we woke up from our dead end and fought until we doubted our existence. We broke through several firewalls of the hacker alliance and lost hundreds of millions."
The hacker alliance is probably hiding right now, cursing their fathers.
hey-hey.
Dad is happy.
"Anything else?"
Pei Jinwu found his loud and boisterous manner annoying, so she went straight to asking about this one thing.
"Boss, we've found the person you asked us to investigate."
"?"
Pei Jinwu was just picking up her water glass when her hand suddenly tightened. "Speak."
"Based on the specific time you provided, we have indeed found through multiple channels that a boy washed ashore in Nanzhou."
"Then what?"
"But..." The subordinate's tone became cautious as he mentioned this, "the other party died on the same day they were rescued."
"Bang--"
Pei Jinwu's heart skipped a beat, and the cup in her hand slipped and fell heavily to the ground.
It shattered into pieces, with a deafening sound.
"Boss?"
Hearing the commotion, his subordinate was quite frightened and hurriedly asked, "Are you alright?"
"Are you sure?" Pei Jinwu opened her mouth with difficulty, her voice as if veiled by a layer of mist, so soft that it was almost inaudible.
“It’s confirmed now,” the subordinate continued to report. “Because he was a homeless orphan and no one claimed him, a well-known local welfare organization arranged a dignified funeral for him.”
Give me a clear answer.
Pei Jinwu supported herself on the table with one hand, feeling her back covered in fine sweat.
That concludes the explanation.
Pei Jinwu hung up the phone and squatted down to pick up the glass when the door suddenly opened.
"What's wrong?"
Wearing his pajamas, Shang Shiyan rushed forward, grabbed her hand, and said anxiously, "Don't touch it."
"..."
Pei Jinwu was still in a daze, her mind filled with the news that her second brother might have passed away.
"..."
Shang Shiyan helped the person sit on the bed, picked up a tissue, and carefully threw the broken glass into the trash can.
Are you injured anywhere?
After finishing, he returned to Pei Jinwu's side and carefully examined her hands.
"..."
Pei Jinwu raised her head, her gaze falling on Shang Shiyan's concerned face.
A few seconds later.
She reached out and gently wrapped her arms around the man's waist, pressing her cheek against his chest, her emotions at their lowest point.
"Fog..."
The sudden closeness disrupted Shang Shiyan's senses. The words stuck in his throat, and he could only stiffly hug her shoulders back, but dared not be too forceful or too intimate.
"What's wrong?" Shang Shiyan asked cautiously, wondering if she knew the truth.
But he had just finished a phone call with Jiang Jibai, so logically she shouldn't know.
"without."
Pei Jinwu shook her head, keeping the matter to herself, and muttered, "What, you won't let me hug you?"
Before it's truly confirmed.
She didn't want others to be sad.
"Let me have you." Shang Shiyan smiled, breathed a sigh of relief, and said in a slightly stiff voice, "You can hug me for as long as you want, but you haven't dried your hair yet, you'll catch a cold."
"besides……"
Shang Shiyan lowered his eyes, his gaze falling directly on the girl's slightly open bathrobe.
The neckline was slightly open, revealing a long, beautiful, slender neck, and below that...
Cough cough.
Shang Shiyan felt his eyes burning and quickly looked away, his voice hoarse: "How about I change your clothes first, then blow-dry your hair, and then hug you?"
"oh."
Pei Jinwu stood up in a daze, grabbed her pajamas from the bed, and went to the bathroom.
After she left.
Shang Shiyan sat on the bed, his breathing disordered, and his heart pounding terribly.
Oh.
The girl hadn't done anything, yet he was here, hot and panting...
besides.
Shang Shiyan stood up, adjusted his pajamas to make the hem looser, thus concealing his restless thoughts.
soon.
Pei Jinwu came out and obediently handed him the hair dryer.
Shang Shiyan smiled gently and carefully dried the little girl's hair.
During the process.
Pei Jinwu leaned against him again, lazily like a little dolphin.
The two were standing too close, plus the hairdryer was too hot...
Shang Shiyan felt his body temperature rising higher and higher...
"Fog."
After drying his hair, Shang Shiyan put down the hairdryer, gently pushed the girl in his arms away, and said in a hoarse voice, "Sit down for a while, I'm going out for a bit."
"Um?"
Before Pei Jinwu could react, Shang Shiyan strode out, opened the door, and left.
"Mr. Shang, are you going to take a shower?"
Wang Ma's voice rang out at just the right moment.
Taking a shower?
Pei Jinwu leaned against the headboard, looking puzzled and innocent.
Didn't he just take a shower?

There will be more updates.
