Chapter 316 You Are So Shameless
The core of the Huo Group is now far less glamorous than its exterior, and is already in ruins.
If you want a better salary or a better future... you will probably give priority to other companies.
Yan Xing seemed to hit it off with Huo Juncheng and really enjoyed his question! The eyes hidden behind his black-framed glasses suddenly sparked with interest. "Because I like challenges! I'd be bored to death if I just went to work and lived a monotonous life. Mr. Huo, if my guess is correct, you need me now, and you'll need me even more in the future. Once I've perfectly solved this matter for you, you'll understand why I chose the Huo Group."
He obviously had something else to say, and Huo Juncheng felt even more itchy after hearing it.
"Oh? It turns out that it wasn't our Huo Group that chose you, but you who chose us." Huo Juncheng smiled: "Interesting." He was indeed the first applicant who dared to say that.
"Yes." Yan Xing pushed his glasses and didn't intend to hide it. "To be honest! I came here under the guidance of a mysterious person. He said that if I want to compete with the number one Taohua J, the Huo Group is my best choice."
"Peach Blossom J?"
"Yes, the Internet hacker champion who's been there for ten consecutive years! He's known as a god in our hacker world! Usually, after someone wins the championship in their first year, they almost never compete again to keep the title, but this Peach Blossom J! He's been there for ten years straight, and he's easily won the championship every time. I don't know who Peach Blossom J is, or if he's a man or a woman, but I just want to get to know him."
Huo Juncheng naturally didn't understand what was going on in the hacker world, so he just listened to him quietly.
The more Yan Xing mentioned Peach Blossom J, the more excited the light in his eyes became. This was the joy of treating someone as a rival.
It is also the duel that those at the top want most, to use Peach Blossom J to prove themselves.
Lin Yilan lay on the sofa with her eyes closed. In fact, she was not asleep at all. When she heard Yan Xing mention Taohua J, she couldn't help but open her eyes and look at Yan Xing. If Yan Xing knew that Taohua J was his third senior brother, would he be even more excited than he is now?
But what Lin Yilan cared about was not this at all, but the mysterious person he was talking about.
Obviously, Huo Juncheng is the same.
He politely listened to Yan Xing's account of his past years of love and hate with Taohua J, then spoke frankly, "That mysterious person guided you in this way?"
"A short message."
"Text message?" Another text message!
Huo Juncheng's eyes lit up and he asked, "Can I take a look?"
"Sure." Yan Xing opened the phone and handed it to Huo Juncheng, explaining, "This text message couldn't be closed after it was opened. The wrong garbled text kept repeating. It took me a full five minutes to close it. But the person on the other end must have been prepared. They used software to hide the phone number, but I cracked it. I traced the IP address, which should be in an Internet cafe abroad. But..."
"But what?"
"IP addresses are almost useless and can be switched at will. So this message is also broken."
Huo Juncheng said "Oh" and did not tell Yan Xing that he had also received news from a mysterious person! Yan Xing's appearance made Huo Juncheng more certain that all of this was not just his random suspicion, but that there seemed to be a mysterious force that was bringing them together.
What exactly does this "mysterious man" want to do?
So the attack on his own group was also done by this mysterious person, with the purpose of making him take in Yan Xing?
Huo Juncheng gave Yan Xing special privileges: he didn't have to clock in at the company, he could leave whenever he wanted and work whenever he wanted. He even assigned him a relatively closed office. The assistant did as he was told and left Huo Juncheng's office.
Lin Yilan pretended not to hear, closed her eyes and continued to sleep.
…
The next morning, warm sunlight lazily broke into the room through the glass, making every corner and every object in the room seem to be covered with a layer of gold.
"Hmm~" Lin Yilan stretched and woke up from her sleep.
As soon as he opened his sleepy eyes, Huo Juncheng was still sitting in the black leather chair where he was last night, without moving at all, still moving the mouse, not knowing what he was doing.
"Didn't sleep all night?"
Lin Yilan stood up from the sofa and walked over to Huo Juncheng. Huo Juncheng stared at his notebook without blinking, and said softly, his voice full of fatigue: "Go wash up first. I'll ask my assistant to buy you breakfast."
She continued to ask, "Answer my question."
"I slept for a while but couldn't fall asleep, so I woke up again."
Lin Yilan looked at Huo Juncheng with a bit of heartache: "What do you want to eat? I'll go home and make it for you. Staying up late like this is really bad for your health. You can't do without some nourishing food. If you think it's too much trouble for me, then let Sister Xiu make it and bring it over."
Huo Juncheng felt warm in his heart, and he fixed his gaze on her with a smile: "Are you concerned about me?"
"Who cares about you! Are you pretty?"
"He's as handsome as ever. How can you use the word 'good-looking' to describe a man? That's such a bummer! He's obviously handsome!"
"What a shame," Lin Yilan muttered. The first thing she did was call Sister Xiu. She asked her to make some more nourishing foods and send them over. Only after she had given her instructions did she go to wash up.
…
In order to make things look good, Chu Siran and Qin Chaotian set aside an hour every day to go on a date. Chu's mother was very happy to see her daughter and Qin Chaotian going on a date every day, and asked her every day how she felt about Qin Chaotian.
Chu Siran and Qin Chaotian were just going through the motions with each other, so what?
"Mom... what can we do? It's just something men and women do on a date." Chu Siran kept silent about Qin Chaotian. Every time she got home from a date, Qin Chaotian would call her warmly to ask if she had arrived home yet.
Chu Siran was speechless every time, but because her mother was around, she could only pretend to be gentle and ladylike.
Qin Chaotian invited Chu Siran to his house on Saturday. He said he had rebuilt a swimming pool and his parents were going abroad for a few days, so he planned to host a party and invited Chu Siran to come. Chu Siran didn't want to go, but Qin Chaotian said, "Think carefully. We're not going on a secret date like this, so why not have a public one?"
This really stimulated Chu Siran: "Go! Send me the location of your home and the time of the party!"
"You can bring friends."
"Of course!" Even if Qin Chaotian didn't say it, she would bring her friends.
The first thing Chu Siran thought of after hanging up the phone was Lin Yilan: "Is Yilan going to Qin Chaotian?"
Lin Yilan answered directly without waiting for any specific questions: "Go!" She has wanted to go for a long time, and now there is an opportunity, she might as well take the opportunity to investigate!
