Although both are modern worlds, the technology of the first person to travel to this world was more advanced than that of this world. Chu Nian had a lot of similar high-tech knowledge, so even though she quit the original owner's job, she wasn't worried about not having money to spend at all.
Chu Nian suddenly discovered that she had a rather impressive neighbor—Tian Jun.
When she drove back from the supermarket and used the remote control to unlock the gate of her villa, she saw Tian Jun remotely unlocking the lock next door, and she felt that something was amiss.
"Oh, Miss Chen, what a coincidence!" Tian Jun said with a faint smile.
Don't tell her it's a coincidence, she doesn't believe it. Chu Nian stared at him, a cold smile tugging at her stiff face. She felt that the male lead's character was a bit off. It seemed that the male lead in the plot was not only high-class but also cold and arrogant, but in her opinion, while the high-class aspect was still there, she genuinely didn't sense the coldness or arrogance.
“I never expected to become neighbors with Miss Chen. What a coincidence! How about we have a drink together?” Tian Jun got out of his car and approached Chu Nian’s car to strike up a conversation. “I know there’s a nice coffee shop in our neighborhood.”
Chu Nian raised an eyebrow, leaned out of the car window, and said, "Just state your purpose. Don't beat around the bush."
Tian Jun leaned against her car door, still smiling faintly, and said with a hint of teasing, "Since Miss Chen doesn't want to go to the coffee shop with me, how about inviting me to your house? After all, we're neighbors..."
Before he could finish speaking, he noticed Chu Nian staring at him with a probing gaze, so he quickly changed his words and asked, "Why are you looking at me like that? Do you think I'm weird?"
"Yeah, I think you're a time traveler too, how come you're completely different from the storyline?" Chu Nian thought to herself, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.
Tian Jun said, "Aren't you going to invite me in for a chat?"
Chu Nian remained silent.
Tian Jun continued, "Could it be that you're afraid I'll find a bunch of computers in your house after I go in, which, combined with your superb IT skills, will allow you to monitor the city at all times?"
"How did you know?" Chu Nianwei asked, slightly surprised.
Tian Jun: "I live next door to you, and I can see into your room through the window."
Chu Nian: "That's nonsense!"
This is a villa area. Even though they are neighbors, each villa is quite far apart, with tall trees planted in the green belt between them, successfully separating the two houses from each other. Tian Jun's house is completely out of sight of her room.
But Chu Nianwei understood after a moment's thought, and chuckled helplessly, "Pengyuan Company is yours?"
The high-tech knowledge she previously sold was to Pengyuan Company. In this world, only this technology could breach the firewall she currently uses.
She wasn't careful enough. She should have upgraded her firewall immediately after the deal with Pengyuan Company. Unfortunately, she was busy moving at the time and didn't expect Pengyuan Company to use this technology to counterattack her.
Chu Nian said in a cool voice, "Don't worry, I won't give you any more chances in the future."
Tian Jun's lips twitched slightly, and he said seriously, "Ms. Chen, I'm here to discuss our upcoming collaborative project. I'm not interested in your personal life."
"Oh?" Chu Nian raised an eyebrow and pointed to Tian Jun's villa. "Then what's going on here? Do you need to move here to discuss projects?"
Tian Jun smiled somewhat helplessly, "I developed this entire residential area. I only kept two buildings that I thought were in good locations for myself."
So what? You want to tell me this is just a coincidence? Chu Nian stared at him suspiciously.
Tian Jun was even more helpless and said, "I'm telling the truth."
Chu Nian took a deep breath and said lazily, "Let's schedule a time to discuss the follow-up cooperation projects. I'm busy today." I need to go back and fix the firewall first, hmph!
After saying that, she started the car and drove into her villa.
Tian Jun watched her car drive into the villa's courtyard, his face and eyes beaming with smiles.
This male lead is really messed up! Chu Nian thought to herself. After parking the car, she went inside and added several firewalls to all the computers, mobile phones, and all electronic devices.
Because Tian Jun had made her so angry, she hacked into Pengyuan Technology's computers and added a program to all their office computers so that if anyone tried to hack her phone or computer, the computer would immediately crash.
Therefore, on the second and third day, Tian Jun's phone crashed twice in a row. He thought there was something wrong with the phone, so he got a new one, but it still crashed! He got another one, and it still crashed! Later, he even changed his phone number, but it still crashed!
Tian Jun: ...
Tian Jun was invited to the Lu family patriarch's birthday banquet. Upon receiving the invitation, he called Chu Nian and was relieved to find that his phone hadn't crashed.
The call was answered quickly, and a crisp, efficient voice came through the receiver: "Want to discuss cooperation?"
Tian Jun: "Yes. I'm going to the Lu family patriarch's birthday banquet. How about you be my date?"
Chu Nian was surprised. Why did they need to talk to her about this? She frankly admitted, "It's not a good thing." She didn't want to be "punished" by the Lu family before the original owner of the body, since the entire Lu family was looking forward to a marriage alliance with the Tian family!
Tian Jun: "Oh, if you don't agree, then when I get to the Lu family, I might reveal some things that you know and I know, but many people don't."
Chu Nian: "What do you mean?"
Tian Jun: "Uh, for example, the Lu family's surveillance equipment was hacked a long time ago; and for another example, Mrs. Lu's cell phone..."
"Alright, I agree to be your date," Chu Nian interrupted him helplessly. She was only a couple of days late in upgrading her firewall, and Tian Jun managed to exploit the loophole. It really is an era that values speed.
A few clear laughs came through the receiver from Tian Jun, followed by his words: "My phone has been having problems lately, is it your doing?"
Chu Nianze said, "Before you accuse others of scheming, shouldn't you reflect on your own actions first?"
Tian Jun sighed helplessly, somewhat speechless. Ultimately, it was his fault. Even if they were monitoring the Lu family and keeping an eye on Tang Zhi, it was mostly because Tang Zhi was her boyfriend—oh, now her ex-boyfriend—and Lin Xinwan had once been involved in the Yuan Gang, interfering in their relationship.
But what's with him staring at people? What's his reason?
He then said, "I will personally pick you up on the day of the banquet. I will arrange your dress, makeup artist, and everything else in advance at your villa."
Chu Nian thought that Tian Jun was really a worrier.
However, since he was willing to take care of things, she was also willing to be a puppet and let the people sent by Tian Jun do whatever they wanted to her—it was worry-free!
On the day of the banquet, Tian Jun arrived to pick up Chu Nian as promised. Before the car had even stopped, he saw the girl standing at the villa entrance waiting for him. His eyes lit up and his heart skipped a beat.
