On the other side, a private club near the competition venue.
Ji Yanchen specially arranged a private room and even placed a computer with an LCD screen on the table, displaying the screen showing the room where Shi Miao was competing.
Because the room is equipped with 360-degree high-definition cameras, the computer screens of each contestant can be clearly seen.
Xie Sizhou also invited Qin Xiao to come and watch the game together.
At this moment, the match on the screen has just begun.
"Holy crap, a virus?" Xie Sizhou tensed up when he saw the competition theme.
He didn't know how strong Shi Miao's computer skills were, and he was afraid that Shi Miao would be eliminated from the very beginning.
Qin Xiao crossed his legs, casually resting his hands on his wrists, and took a sip of his drink. "Don't worry, Shi Xiaomiao will definitely be fine."
Xie Sizhou nudged him with his elbow, his gaze on him questioningly. "How do you know that Sister Shi is definitely capable?"
Qin Xiao raised an eyebrow and said in a pretentious tone, "I just know."
Xie Sizhou delivered another elbow strike, laughing and cursing, "Get lost."
He looked up at Ye Chuan, who was pouring tea, and said with some confusion, "No, why aren't you worried?"
Ye Chuan handed the teacup to Ji Yanchen and said calmly, "What's there to worry about? Trust Shi Miao, okay?"
Xie Sizhou, still not believing in such things, turned his head to look at the calm and composed man on the other side, scratched his head in frustration, so he was the only one who was worried the most?
Damn, is there something he doesn't know about again?
Seeing that everyone was watching the game intently, he suppressed his doubts and kept his eyes fixed on the computer screen.
An hour later, someone had already created a virus.
The first person to create the software immediately launched an attack on other people's computers.
Upon seeing this, Xie Sizhou held his breath and stared at the screen nervously, fearing that someone else would be the first to shut down Shi Miao's computer.
Those who can participate in the competition must be top talents in this field. As soon as the first virus came out, four computers went black in less than a minute.
Soon, the second virus was also completed, and within minutes, it hacked six more computers.
Including the four people who were eliminated at the beginning, ten people have been eliminated in the blink of an eye.
Only half of the computer screens in the competition room were still lit.
Xie Sizhou felt that this software competition was too simple and brutal, it was simply not a competition for humans to watch, it was too damn tense and exciting!
He then looked at Shi Miao, only to see the girl still slowly inputting C code using an encoder. He couldn't help but feel worried for her, and turned his head to ask, "Brother Chen, when will your wife be done? Isn't it a bit too slow?"
Ji Yanchen rested his forehead on his hand, a casual smile playing on his lips. His dark eyes gleamed with unrestrained arrogance as he glanced at him, his tone languid and aloof: "Right away."
Xie Sizhou: "???"
Suddenly Qin Xiao's voice came, "It's done!"
Xie Sizhou quickly turned his head, staring nervously at the screen.
The next second, before he could even see what was happening, all nine computers that had been fiercely competing on the screen suddenly went black.
Only Shi Miao's computer was still brightly lit.
Xie Sizhou was terrified, his heart pounding in his chest. His eyes widened in disbelief, and all he could think of was, "Holy crap!"
......
Meanwhile, Shen Yan, who was watching from the sidelines, also witnessed Shi Miao's outrageous move, and was so shocked that his jaw almost dropped.
It wasn't until Shi Miao came down from the second floor, walked to his side, and called out "Professor Shen" that he finally came to his senses.
Shen Yan couldn't hide his excitement and exhilaration. "Beautiful, Shi Miao! Absolutely stunning!"
Shi Miao's delicate and striking face showed little emotion; she replied rather casually, "It's alright."
Shen Yan handed Shi Miao the phone he had kept before the competition to her, suppressing the excitement in his voice, "The final is on the 23rd, which is six days from now. However, you need to submit a final piece before the 20th. In short, there is still plenty of time. Prepare well."
He paused for a moment and then said, "One of the other four finalists is a previous champion. I'll send you their information later."
Shi Miao took the phone, her deep eyes both dark and clear. "Okay."
She opened her phone, went into WeChat, and glanced at the message from Ji Yanchen: "Professor Shen, I'll be going now."
Shen Yan asked with concern, "Where are you going? Do you want me to take you?"
Shi Miao put away her phone. "No need, someone's coming to pick me up."
"Okay, I'll contact you later." Shen Yan nodded. He also needed to hurry back to school. This was the first time China had reached the finals, and there were still many things to do afterward.
Shi Miao put his hands in his pockets and responded softly, "Mm."
...
As I stepped out of the building, I immediately spotted that familiar yet understated SUV parked quietly by the roadside.
Shi Miao walked over, opened the car door with practiced ease, sat in the passenger seat, and fastened her seatbelt.
Ji Yanchen casually rested one hand on the steering wheel, a faint smile playing in his deep eyes. "Congratulations, Miao Shen."
Shi Miao turned to look at him, her clear, bright eyes strikingly beautiful. "You know the result so quickly?"
Ji Yanchen started the car, a smirk playing on one side of his lips. "Hmm, I'll watch the whole thing."
Shi Miao slowly withdrew her gaze, casually resting her arm on the car window. She glanced at the scenery rushing past and asked lazily, "Where to?"
"Let's go eat first. We made a reservation at Shuiyunxuan."
Shi Miao hummed in agreement, took out her phone from her pocket, and tapped the screen with her fair fingers, continuing to reply to the unanswered messages on WeChat.
Twenty minutes later, the two arrived at the restaurant.
Ji Yanchen led Shi Miao by the hand to the private room that had been reserved in advance.
I pushed open the door, and there were already people sitting inside.
Shi Miao raised her delicate eyebrows slightly upon seeing this, somewhat surprised. She hadn't expected Xie Sizhou and the others to be there; she had thought it was just her and Ji Yanchen.
Hearing the door open, Xie Sizhou looked up, his eyes lighting up, and exclaimed excitedly, "Shi-mei, you're here! You're so awesome! That final black screen was so cool, damn!"
They clearly haven't recovered from the previous match.
Shi Miao pulled out a chair and sat down. She was always relaxed in familiar surroundings. She leaned back casually against the chair back, her dark eyes shimmering. "Not bad, basic operation."
Xie Sizhou looked at her, his expression quite serious, and said, "Sister Shi, do you still take on apprentices? Although I know nothing about programming code or anything like that, I have a thirst for knowledge! There's a saying, 'It's never too late to learn!'"
Shi Miao's lips twitched almost imperceptibly, and she said succinctly, "No, I'm too old."
Xie Sizhou: "..."
