CHAPTER 851: CHAPTER 761: DISLOCATED LIVES 49

The inside story came out when Shuangshuang left, and the young celeb was so anxious that they spilled it in public; now Zhi Jin’s reputation is utterly ruined, making it impossible for anyone to want to interact with her.

Unless Wen Zhijin could possess Shuangshuang’s skills, she could ignore these rumors. Unfortunately, Zhi Jin is far from being Shuangshuang.

However, Shuangshuang is currently too busy to be concerned about Wen Zhijin, as she is handling the upgrade issues for the "Ascension to God" game. This time, her upgrade to the game is significant, so she’s been immersed in her company with the tech team working on the upgrade.

Although Shuangshuang also wants to deal with Wen Zhijin immediately, Wen Zhijin is still the biological daughter of Jianyun and Yun, even if they dislike or are disgusted by her. If Shuangshuang makes things too bad for her, she would inevitably upset Jianyun and Yun, possibly causing them to intervene.

This is called "striking the rat, but fearing to break the vase." Shuangshuang considers Jianyun and Yun, and has to use some indirect ways to teach Zhi Jin a lesson. For instance, Jianyun and Yun, although not fond of Wen Zhijin’s malice, still consider her and have sent her to a boarding school in another city.

In this way, the things Wen Zhijin did wouldn’t be known, allowing her to live a normal life, as Jianyun and Yun’s protection for Wen Zhijin. No matter how angry Shuangshuang gets, as long as she cares about Jianyun and Yun, she shouldn’t take action herself.

However, Shuangshuang not taking personal action doesn’t mean there aren’t ways to deal with the opponent. There’s currently an unknown number of people currying favor with Shuangshuang, hoping to partner with her company on game software development or at least some software collaboration.

There is an executive particularly good at this; shortly after Wen Zhijin transferred schools, he sent Shuangshuang a stack of photos. In the photos, a group of girls in school uniforms surrounds and bullies one girl. That bullied girl is Wen Zhijin.

Shuangshuang frowned. Although she wants revenge on Wen Zhijin, she doesn’t like such school bullying matters. However, such things are societal norms, and she’s not a saint who can’t handle it, let alone use sympathy on Wen Zhijin.

Nevertheless, this executive is a shrewd one, using this method to show goodwill with room to maneuver. He can fully rely on Shuangshuang’s response to make choices. Whether Shuangshuang reacts or doesn’t, it’s a very safe way to test the waters.

Shuangshuang thought it over and created a high-level firewall software on her computer, sending it to the executive. His name is Yu Lei, and he runs a design company. For such a company, two important things are design talents and the level of confidentiality.

Design talents can bring more customers to the company, and robust confidentiality measures can prevent rival companies from hiring hackers to attack company computers and steal design drawings.

Talents are easier to manage, as Yu Lei is generous with salaries, bonuses, and benefits, retaining talents who won’t be easily poached. However, confidentiality is the issue. Previously, a rival company hired hackers and stole their designs, causing some losses.

Although it wasn’t detrimental, it angered Yu Lei. His careful attempts at pleasing Shuangshuang are focused on her achievements with computers, thinking if he can make her happy, perhaps she could help with the company’s firewalls.

Many people think Shuangshuang let Wen Zhijin off lightly at the banquet and openly stated not to compete for wealth with her. Someone so magnanimous and above-ground wouldn’t play the game of behind-the-scenes revenge, likely just leaving Wen Zhijin to live out pathetically.

But Yu Lei doesn’t think so. Though he didn’t consider Shuangshuang a vengeful person, he deduced she harbors anger, and the reason Shuangshuang hasn’t acted might only be out of respect for Jianyun and Yun, not because she truly forgave completely.

Yu Lei figured if he acts and helps Shuangshuang deal with Wen Zhijin, whether this pleases Shuangshuang or not. If it does, his requests become easier; if not, it wouldn’t matter. He’d think of other ways to please her.

As for dealing with Wen Zhijin, Shuangshuang has hesitations and can’t act, while Yu Lei finds it simple. Originally, if Wen Zhijin still had Zhu Shihao, a formidable boyfriend, Yu Lei wouldn’t dare touch her to please Shuangshuang.

Unfortunately, Wen Zhijin overreached, appearing perfect at first, but now her image is entirely shattered. This left Zhu Shihao unable to accept the celestial fairy in his heart falling instantly to a demon, leading to their immediate breakup with Wen Zhijin.

With her mighty backer gone, her capable parents no longer regard her highly, and thus Wen Zhijin ceased being a threat. Yu Lei casually intervened, and Wen Zhijin’s reputation was tarnished at the new school, bullied by a group of girls.

After sending the photos to Shuangshuang, Yu Lei waited for her response. Although it didn’t directly arrive, a new firewall software appeared on his computer with a manual, evidently crafted by Shuangshuang.

Yu Lei quickly gathered his tech team to study and confirm that this firewall is undoubtedly the most powerful known, capable of both defense and counterattacks against hackers.

This firewall is so excellent that even buying it with money would require a fortune, yet Shuangshuang nonchalantly gifted it to him.

Yu Lei touched his chin, unable to hide his satisfaction. It seems Shuangshuang is very pleased with his flatteries, offering such a valuable return. Yu Lei considered that since Shuangshuang isn’t short on money, paying her back monetarily would be laughable.

It’s fortunate that Yu Lei grasped Shuangshuang’s pulse accurately, deciding to continue how he previously pleased her. To repay Shuangshuang for her generous return, he will maintain his good habit of troubling Wen Zhijin.

This time Yu Lei made a bold move, hiring several delinquents with poor academic performance and no interest in schooling—not inherently evil, but far from good.

Yu Lei gave these delinquents a large sum of money each with a single task—to enroll at Wen Zhijin’s school as students. No need to study hard, just their mission to warm up to the ostracized Wen Zhijin, taking her out for fun.

All sorts of games, sports, climbing mountains, diving into the sea, traveling—except for high-end luxury places, regardless of the location, all expenses are reimbursed. The aim is to deter any serious learning from Wen Zhijin, fully eroding her ambition. In short, Yu Lei wants to help Shuangshuang ruin Wen Zhijin.
