CHAPTER 114: CHAPTER 108: HIDE YOUR SMALL IDENTITY (TWO CHAPTERS COMBINED INTO ONE)_3
It wasn’t until they left that Qiao Yuxian said to Gu Yanjing, "Liu Zhou Tea House has moved over."
Gu Yanjing glanced at her, then looked at those potted plants, and then turned to Shang Chen and said, "Remember to return the gift."
Shang Chen lowered his head and said, "Yes."
Back at the villa, Qiao Yuxian went straight to the side hall to continue setting up a sleeping area for Zhaocai.
Gu Yanjing stood in the living room watching her for a moment, noticing that she wasn’t paying attention to him, so he went to the study.
Then...
Ten minutes later, Gu Yanjing went downstairs to pour a glass of water. Passing by the side hall, he saw her grooming Zhaocai.
No one paid attention to him, so he finished pouring the water and returned to the study.
Twenty minutes later, he came down to take a newspaper from the small cabinet in the living room. Passing by the side hall again, Qiao Yuxian was sorting Zhaocai’s snacks, dog food, and such.
No one noticed him, so he took the newspaper and went upstairs.
Thirty minutes later, Gu Yanjing came down again to get a pen from the drawer under the coffee table. Passing by the side hall, Qiao Yuxian was sitting on the carpet playing a small game with Zhaocai.
No one noticed him again, so he took the pen and returned to the study.
Fifty minutes later, he came down again for a stroll. Passing by the side hall, he saw Qiao Yuxian changing clothes for Zhaocai.
Still, no one paid attention to him, so he finished his circle and returned to the study.
An hour and a half later, he came down again, heading straight to the side hall.
"Qiao Yuxian."
With her back to the door, Qiao Yuxian shivered at the sound of his voice.
Zhaocai looked at him and immediately let out an angry sound.
Gu Yanjing glanced at it, ignored it, treating it like air.
Qiao Yuxian patted its neck and said, "It’s okay, it’s okay. Good boy, lie down."
Gu Yanjing looked at her holding the dog, petting it. He expressionlessly asked, "Are you going to do questions tonight?"
"Huh?" Qiao Yuxian, sitting on the carpet holding Zhaocai, thought for a moment and said, "Yes. Wait for me a moment, I’ll be right there."
"Okay." Gu Yanjing didn’t go to the study but waited for her in the living room.
"You don’t have to wait for me here." Qiao Yuxian was originally planning to play a little longer with Zhaocai, but seeing him waiting, she quickly tidied up.
Gu Yanjing said nothing and didn’t leave.
Qiao Yuxian could only speed up, settling Zhaocai before washing her hands in the bathroom. Coming out, she said, "Okay. Let’s go."
"Go up first," Gu Yanjing got up and went to the kitchen.
He had just asked Aunt Mei to prepare some fruit.
"Okay."
Gu Yanjing carried the fruit platter upstairs, just as Qiao Yuxian was coming out of the bedroom with some test papers. They both entered the study together.
After sitting down, Qiao Yuxian put the test papers aside and started eating the fruit first.
"Gu Yanjing," Qiao Yuxian called him.
Gu Yanjing looked at her.
She smiled at him first and then said, "Are you really planning to go after Feng Chuanbai?"
"Yes," Gu Yanjing responded.
Qiao Yuxian bit half a grape and said, "It will be very troublesome."
Gu Yanjing looked at her.
Qiao Yuxian also looked at him, paused, and said, "You’re investigating his powers, you should know how difficult he is. Moreover... Gu Zhengyu might take this opportunity to act against you. Of course, you should understand, not just Gu Zhengyu, but others as well."
Gu Yanjing’s eyes showed some evaluative meaning.
Qiao Yuxian raised her hand to cover his eyes, "Don’t look. I know a lot, I’m a hacker, you know that, you’ve seen it, I can investigate."
Outside, people say his father was killed by him. Few know that Gu Zhengyu is alive and wants to deal with him.
Searching online? The Gu Family had covered these things up so tightly back then, without a trace, it’s impossible to find anything. Unless she found something else, knowing Gu Zhengyu intends to act against him.
Gu Yanjing pulled her hand down, holding it while looking at her, "Have you heard of the Hacker Alliance?"
"Yes," Qiao Yuxian responded, "Anyone who knows a bit about hacking should know it. It has the world’s best hackers and holds all data and information that’s left a trace on the internet. The Hacker Alliance’s status in the hacker world... can make the entire hacker world tremble with just a stomp."
Gu Yanjing agreed with her statement and continued, "I heard the Hacker Alliance was attacked recently."
Qiao Yuxian raised an eyebrow, looked at him, and said nothing.
"Someone attacked the Hacker Alliance and withdrew without leaving a trace," Gu Yanjing said calmly, "After that... the Gu Family received some targeted job information from the Hacker Alliance against the Gu Family."
Among these job orders was one placed by Gu Zhengyu.
Qiao Yuxian still didn’t speak, her expression remained calm, without surprise or disturbance. It was as if she was hearing him describe a very ordinary story.
The two looked at each other, their expressions light and gentle, their gaze slowly intersecting. After a while, Gu Yanjing looked away, touched her face and said, "Hide your little identity well."
Qiao Yuxian still said nothing.
Gu Yanjing placed her hand on the table, conveniently put a cherry at her lips.
Once she opened her mouth to eat it, he turned back to continue working.
Qiao Yuxian slowly chewed the cherry, after a while, she got up, leaning halfway on the table, blocking the computer while looking at Gu Yanjing.
Gu Yanjing looked at her too.
Qiao Yuxian furrowed her brows and said, "Weren’t we talking about Feng Chuanbai?"
Gu Yanjing looked at her furrowed brows, paused, and then said, "We were just talking about the exam schedule you arranged, the one question set a night can’t be finished."
Qiao Yuxian looked at the time on the computer, immediately sat back down, opened her test papers, and while looking for a pen, said, "Oh no, oh no, oh no, I still owe a set from last night."
