Chapter 881: 881 Ugly Person

....

 

Liu Xing had been having a lot of fun these two days. Wherever she went, she would be sought after by others. These people seemed to have especially come to see her. They kept asking for her autograph and taking photos with her.

Liu Xing had agreed to all of her fans ‘requests. If it was her in the past, she would not even spare a glance at these fans. However, it was different now. Liu Xing’s reputation in the country was very bad, so she needed an international reputation even more.

The enthusiasm of the foreign fans made Liu Xing temporarily forget about domestic affairs. She called Ying Xian and Zhu Sheng and asked them to erase Tan Ron’s name from the system as soon as possible, but she couldn’t get through to them.

Liu Xing was not in the mood to make another phone call. She believed that Ying Xian would do as she requested. Now that she could not get through, it must be because Ying Xian was busy dealing with the things that happened in the country.

On the day of the evaluation competition, Liu Xing woke up very early. After putting on exquisite makeup, she chose her most expensive blue dress and put it on. M Nation was in the southern hemisphere, and it was currently hot. Liu Xing could show off her beauty to her heart’s content.

There were a lot of people who came to participate in the certification competition. Since it was a large-scale competition, there would be sponsors. The sponsor of this competition was the royal family of the Country M. This was a country with a constitution, but their royal family also had half of the management rights. The king and the president jointly managed the country. Although it was not harmonious, this system had existed for hundreds of years.

Liu Xing had gotten the photos of the sponsors in advance. As soon as she entered the venue, she began to look for members of the royal family. She heard that their second prince, Carl, was a person who liked beautiful women, so Liu Xing wanted to conquer Carl with her beauty.

Carl, who had blonde hair and blue eyes, was looking for a beautiful woman with a glass of wine in his hand. Suddenly, a woman in a blue dress appeared beside him and took the initiative to talk to her.

Carl didn’t like women who were too proactive, because these women must have some ulterior motive for looking for her.

“Good afternoon, Your Highness!” Liu Xing gave Carl what she thought was the most beautiful smile.

Carl couldn’t find a beautiful woman who could make his eyes light up, so he might as well talk to this ordinary-looking woman. Otherwise, he would be bored to death.

“Beautiful lady, what’s the matter?” Carl still praised her as a beautiful lady, but his expression was very cold.

Liu Xing smiled. “I’ve long heard of His Highness Carl’s name. 1 just wanted to take this opportunity to meet you. You’re much more handsome than on TV.” Carl liked to hear others praise him. Although the woman in front of him was not beautiful, she had a good mouth, so Carl talked to her a little more.

“Is this lady here to participate in the evaluation competition?” Carl asked.

Liu Xing felt that this was a good opportunity to promote herself, so he said to Carl, “Yes, the association sent an invitation to invite me over. 1 didn’t plan to come, but when I heard that I could see I might be able to meet you here, I hurriedly packed my things and came.”

“Haha.” Carl sneered.

Suddenly, Carl saw someone familiar, so he immediately left Liu Xing and went to look for that person.

“Oh, long time no see!” Carl smiled and greeted Zhuang Liu.

When Zhuang Liu saw Carl, his expression turned ugly for a moment, but then he smiled again. “Long time no see, Carl.”

Carl’s eyes lit up when he saw the girl beside Zhuang Liu. “Oh my god, is this your friend? She’s so beautiful!”

Zhuang Liu brought Tan Rou to his side and said, “This is my girlfriend.”

Carl’s eyes were fixed on Tan Rou. “She’s so beautiful! Can 1 spend some time alone with your girlfriend?”

Tan Rou was very surprised. What was wrong with this foreign man? Why would he make such an unreasonable request?

Zhuang Liu said angrily, “No, this is my girlfriend. She’s not someone you can play with. The men in your country are afraid of your status, but I’m not afraid of you.”

Carl’s expression changed. Then, he smiled. “I was just joking. Don’t take it seriously.” He looked at Tan Rou.

“But 1 was telling the truth about one, compared to this beautiful lady, all the women here are ugly..”

 

Chapter 882: 882 Don’t Be Smug

....

 

Liu Xing had followed Carl over. When she arrived, she happened to hear Carl’s last sentence. This made Liu Xing very angry. What did he mean by ‘Compared to Tan Rou, all the women here are ugly?’

Damn it, Carl had just praised her as a beautiful lady, and now he called her an ugly monster. Tan Rou must have said something bad about her just now.

“Xiao Rou, you know Prince Carl too?” Liu Xing stood elegantly beside Carl in her high heels. “What a coincidence.”

“Rou, is that your name?” Carl was overjoyed. “I’ve studied your language carefully. 1 heard that the meaning of this word is very beautiful, just like you.”

Carl did not take Liu Xing seriously at all. His eyes were always on Tan Rou. Even though Tan Rou did not say a word, he still felt that she was very beautiful.

Zhuang Liu frowned. “Carl, since you know Miss Liu Xing, then you can chat slowly. We’ll leave first.”

“Who’s Liu Xing?” Carl asked with confusion.

Liu Xing’s face darkened. She didn’t expect that after talking for so long, this golden-haired prince didn’t even know her name. It was detestable.

Tan Rou could not help but laugh. She held Zhuang Liu’s hand and said coldly, “The competition is about to start. Let’s go.”

Carl stopped them. “Elder, tell your girlfriend that I’m treating you both to dinner tonight. You guys can go together.”

When he heard Tan Rou speak Chinese, he thought that she didn’t know how to speak their language. In this case, everything that he said earlier was useless.

After saying that, he felt that this method was not very appropriate, so he said in broken Chinese, “Beautiful lady, may I invite you to have dinner together? Tonight.”

Tan Rou found it funny. This prince had just said that he had studied their language seriously, but he was so bad at it. If Tan Rou had not heard what he said in the M language, she would not have understood what Carl had said.

Liu Xing’s mouth twitched. Tan Rou, this b*tch, was good at pretending. She knew the language of Country M, but she still pretended not to know it. Did she want to win Carl’s favor?

This man, Carl, was also an idiot. Tan Rou already had a boyfriend, so why was he still chasing after her?

“Prince Carl, it’s not that Xiao Rou doesn’t understand your language. She’s just not replying to you on purpose.” Liu Xing said proudly, “She speaks fluently in your language. If you don’t believe me, you can scold her.”

Carl hated ugly women, especially those who were ugly and annoying. “You’re friends with her, right? Then help me pass on the message.”

Liu Xing’s eyes widened. “I’m not a messenger,” she replied angrily. “Why would I help you?”

This Carl was too lecherous. He would go up to a beautiful woman like a dog the moment he saw her. It was disgusting. However, Tan Rou was even more despicable. She just wanted men to revolve around her. Was one Zhuang Liu not enough? How many more men did she want?

Liu Xing glared fiercely at Tan Rou, wishing she could pierce Tan Rou with her glare.

Tan Rou smiled. “What’s the use of glaring at me? He doesn’t want to talk to you. Can 1 force him?”

Liu Xing gritted his teeth and said, “Don’t be so smug. I’ll make you lose in a while!”

“Then 1’11 wait and see,” Tan Rou said with a smile.

Liu Xing was a little worried. Tan Ron’s ability was very strong. Although the two of them had never really competed, it could be seen from her works that Tan Rou was better than her.

However, Tan Rou had left the laboratory for so many years. After she left, she had never come into contact with the things in the laboratory again. The things that Liu Xing used now were all invented by Tan Rou in the past. It did not mean that Tan Rou could still invent things that were similar to those works.

“I admit that you were very smart in the past, but I’m different now. You, on the other hand,” Liu Xing said with a smile. “You haven’t come into contact with anything related to scientific research for so many years. Can you still operate the machine well now?”

Tan Rou smiled and shook her head. “Don’t argue with me here. We’ll know who will win and who will lose soon. I hope you can always be so confident.”

“Of course I’m confident,” Liu Xing said. “Don’t cry when I pass the certification!”

“Thank you for your reminder. I won’t cry,” Tan Rou said..

 

Chapter 883: 883 Bought It With Money

....

 

Liu Xing caught a glimpse of a red-haired foreign man from the corner of her eye. She suddenly became confident. Why was she arguing with Tan Rou that she could pass the certification? In any case, there was only one person who could pass the certification today, and that was her.

There were a total of two assessment procedures. One was to assess the strength of the candidate, and the other was to assess the candidate’s work to see if the candidate could pass the certification.

The exam was too easy for Tan Rou. She had already read all the books on evaluation. Even if she didn’t read them, she could still pass the exam. She believed that Liu Xing could pass as well.

The results of the examination would not be announced. It was to inform the candidates who had passed the examination that they could enter the internal venue.

Tan Ron’s seat was arranged in the third row, behind which were the audience and the family members of the candidates.

To please Tan Rou, Prince Carl deliberately placed Zhuang Liu on the seat behind Tan Rou. He wanted to show his magnanimity. Even if Tan Rou had a partner, he wouldn’t mind.

“Elder, your girlfriend is too outstanding.” Carl couldn’t help but praise Tan Rou. “When we were in school, you were the best student. 1 didn’t expect your girlfriend to be even better than you. I’m so envious of you.”

Zhuang Liu went to school in M University. Aide was his name when he was studying abroad. Carl was his classmate back then. It was said that when he was in middle school, Carl had already had sex with girls. Sometimes, there was more than one beautiful girl in his bed.

“Thank you for your praise, but the selection is about to begin. Please be quiet.” Although Zhuang Liu didn’t like Carl very much, this was Carl’s territory after all. He couldn’t give Carl a hard time.

Although this competition was said to be ‘global’, it was held by the M Nation to select talents for themselves. Every year, the scientists who passed the certification were allowed to travel across the globe to work, but in the end, they would be poached by the M Nation at a high price.

The emcee on the stage was also very much in line with Carl’s aesthetic standards. It was probably arranged by him himself. However, Carl was not in the mood to look at the beautiful emcee at the moment. His attention was attracted by Tan Rou.

The emcee on stage smiled and opened the big screen, intending to play the works of the contestants. However, her mouse suddenly lost control, and the computer screen went black.

“What happened?” Carl was the first to stand up. He was the one who had planned today’s event. If there was a mistake, it would affect his future election.

The host clicked her mouse frantically in a panic, but there was no response. Just as she was about to smash the mouse, the big screen suddenly lit up again. The screen was not playing the works of the participants, but rather a slow-scrolling screenshot of the chat history.

When Liu Xing saw the screenshots, his blood turned cold. Why would this chat appear here? Could it be that there was a spy in the association?

“Oh my god, is this a list of people bribing the officials? Why are there so many people?”

“When did you bribe the officials? It’s the officials who are taking the initiative to make money. If I were a candidate, I would be tempted as well.”

“This Liu Xing has been popular recently. 1 heard that all of her works were plagiarized. I didn’t expect that her candidacy was also bribed.”

“Hahaha, it’s precisely because her work is plagiarized that she has to bribe the authorities. Otherwise, how could she have passed the certification?”

Liu Xing almost broke her nails. She thought that she was the only one who received the messages. She did not expect that there would be so many of them. Those damned fellows had cheated her of so much money. She had to settle the score with them.

With Liu Xing’s strength, she would not be able to pass the certification because all her useful inventions were plagiarized by others. However, the people from the Global Association of Sciences found her and said that they could help her pass the certification, but they had to pay for it.

At that time, Liu Xing did not lack money, so she agreed to their request and spent a lot of money. That was why Liu Xing was so confident that he would pass the certification.

“Liu Xing is really interesting. The matter of her and Zhu Sheng harming people has been brewing in the country for so many days, but she hasn’t dealt with it. She is in the mood to participate in the competition. She’s thick-skinned!”

“Maybe she likes to become famous in such a manner..”

 

Chapter 884: 884 Paying for the Room

....

 

Liu Xing’s pupils contracted. Did she hear Zhu Sheng’s name? Could it be that the matter of her asking Ying Xian to call Zhu Sheng was exposed? But Tan Rou wasn’t affected at all?

She knew that it must be because Zhu Sheng had been discovered when he was making his move that Tan Rou was able to enter the competition arena safely.

If that was the case, then there was no need to worry. As long as she did not admit it, nothing would happen.

Liu Xing hurriedly contacted Ying Xian. As soon as she turned on her phone, countless messages and missed calls flooded into her phone, causing her phone to freeze. The screen was lit up, but she could not swipe her phone. “Hurry up and move!” Liu Xing slapped her phone hard. She had just bought this phone not long ago, and its performance should still be good. If it wasn’t for the fact that there were too many messages, it wouldn’t have jammed.

In the seven to eight minutes that her phone was stuck, the Al Nation police rushed into the venue and took the red-haired foreign man away.

When Liu Xing saw this scene, she was very afraid. She hurriedly took her things and hid in the toilet. If she was caught in a foreign country, she would not even have a chance to turn things around.

After a while, Liu Xing’s phone finally responded. After clearing the messages and missed calls, she immediately called Ying Xian.

“What?” Ying Xian picked it up instantly and asked Liu Xing in exasperation, “Where the f*ck did you go?”

Liu Xing was also very angry.” You dare to scold me?”

“Not only do I want to scold you, but I also want to f*cking kill you right now!” Ying Xian said angrily.

“Why are you so angry?” Liu Xing said unhappily.

“Was it me who exposed the fact that 1 told Zhu Sheng about Tan Ron’s quota? Why are you so angry?”

“Why am I so angry?” Ying Xian was about to be angered to death by Liu Xing. “Look at what you’ve done!”

Ying Xian hung up the phone angrily and sent Liu Xing four to five links and a court summons.

Liu Xing fell onto the toilet bowl. It was all over. She would die.

No, she had to leave Country M as soon as possible. As long as she could return to the country, she would be protected by the country. She had done so much for the country, and the country would protect her.

Thinking of this, Liu Xing sneaked out of the venue and returned to her hotel. As soon as she entered, she was stopped by the receptionist. Then, a black-haired man with black eyes walked out. He was holding a few pieces of paper that looked like contracts.

“Miss Liu Xing, are you here to check out? This is your expense record,” the man said with a smile. “Please check out after you pay the fee.”

Liu Xing was confused. “What payment? Didn’t you say that everything was free? Why do you have to pay?”

The man said with a smile, “Miss Liu Xing, our receptionist told you when you checked in. This presidential suite is prepared for people who have passed the certification. Now, not only have you not passed the certification, but you have also embarrassed yourself overseas. Our boss said that he doesn’t have a fellow countryman like you, and he won’t give you any more discounts. Therefore, you have to pay off your expenses for the next few days before you can leave.” “You lied to me!” Liu Xing was unwilling to pay. Staying here for a day cost 60,000. Moreover, she had spent a lot of high-end packages in the hotel these days. It would cost more than 500,000. She could not afford that much money now.

“We’re not lying to you. This is the contract. If you think there’s anything unclear, you can take a look again. You signed this contract yourself, didn’t you?” the man asked.

When she checked in, Liu Xing did not go through the check-in procedures. This check-in procedure was done later. Liu Xing only thought of it as a simple check-in contract and did not look at it much. She did not expect them to set such a big trap on this contract.

“Miss Liu Xing, it’s written on the contract. As long as you don’t pass the certification, you have to pay the bill in full amount. Would you like to use cash or bank transfer?” The man asked politely.

Liu Xing could only use her bank card to transfer the money. The shop assistant was very considerate. She was afraid that she would not be able to transfer the money, so she specially provided her with a domestic bank card number. Even if she did not want to transfer the money, she had no excuse to not transfer it.

Liu Xing’s account had lost more than 500,000 in an instant, which was a huge blow to her. What was worse was that her account was frozen after the transfer. Liu Xing did not even have the money to buy tickets..

 

Chapter 885: 885 Returning to the Country

....

 

After staying in the airport lobby for a day and a night, Liu Xing finally contacted Ying Xian.

Ying Xian didn’t want to answer Liu Xing’s call at first, but he still had a beneficial relationship with Liu Xing. If something happened to Liu Xing overseas, he wouldn’t be any better.

“Why haven’t you come back yet? This is your fault,” Ying Xian said angrily. “Aren’t you going to come back and settle this?”

Liu Xing gnawed on the dry bread and said aggrievedly, “I wanted to go back as soon as possible, but my account has been frozen. 1 can’t use all my money. I don’t have the money to buy a ticket back.”

The bread she ate was bought with a small amount of cash that she had left.

Ying Xian immediately bought her a plane ticket. “Come back quickly. There are still many things waiting for you to handle.”

Their studio had already received a subpoena from the court, saying that their work had plagiarized and violated copyright. However, this was not the most important thing. The most important thing was Liu Xing’s problem. Liu Xing had been charged, and she had to come back to accept the verdict. Ying Xian did not want to be arrested in her place, so he had to let Liu Xing come back.

Liu Xing boarded the plane back to her country. The plane was full of people discussing this matter. Even foreigners who did not understand Chinese expressed their support for the injured girl’s rights after hearing the translation of their companions.

Liu Xing wore a thick mask and stuffed her ears with earphones, trying her best not to listen to those people. However, those words seemed to have appeared directly in her mind and she could not avoid them at all.

She was a person who liked to show off. Every time she came back from abroad, she would get a huge bunch to pick her up. But this time, even if there were a lot of people to pick her up, she was not happy. Because these people were all here to scold her. Some of them were even holding rotten fruits in their hands. As long as she dared to reveal her identity, those rotten fruits would hit her head.

Liu Xing pulled down her sunglasses and quickly left the airport. She had to find a place to hide now. It would be best if she could avoid this crisis.

However, she was daydreaming. What awaited her was only the punishment of the domestic law. Even if she fled abroad now, it would be too late.

Compared to Liu Xing, who was in a sorry state, Tan Rou was much happier. She and Zhuang Liu had been abroad for a few days before returning to the country. The day before she returned, Tan Rou went to some antique stores and bookstores with Zhuang Liu and picked out a lot of things to bring back.

Zhuang Liu had requested to go to the antique store. He said that he could buy some good materials to bring back to his family. Tan Rou felt that it made sense, so she picked a piece for everyone. She also chose a blue and pink gem as a souvenir to bring back.

Tan Rou had bought a lot of things overseas, especially classical books. Although the people of Country M were weird, the things in their country were very good. Many things that could not be bought in their country could be easily bought in their country, especially books of various versions. Tan Rou even found a book published more than a hundred years ago in an old bookstore, and it was well preserved.

“It’s almost the holidays, right?” Zhuang Liu asked.

Tan Rou turned a page and replied, “There’s still a week before the final exams. After the exams, we’ll be on holiday.”

Zhuang Liu hooked Tan Ron’s pinky. “Can you come to my house for dinner during the holidays?”

Tan Rou thought that Shen Jing was calling her over for dinner again, so she said, “Did Auntie prepare something delicious again? Then I’ll go tomorrow so that the delicious food won’t go bad.”

Zhuang Liu did not mean that. “Rourou, I want to introduce you to my relatives and officially introduce you to my parents. Although they should have guessed our relationship, I will feel bad if I don’t tell them about our relationship.”

Tan Rou was silent for a moment. “It’s not the new year yet. Let’s wait until the new year.”

Zhuang Liu was a little disappointed. He really wanted to reveal his relationship with Tan Rou, but Tan Rou didn’t want to. That was true. Tan Rou was still a student. If people knew about her relationship with him, they would talk about her.

The head of the Zhuang family, who could call the shots outside, could only be an obedient boyfriend in front of the girl he loved.

Tan Rou smiled secretly in a place that Zhuang Liu could not see. She held the raw stone in her pocket tightly and said in a voice that Zhuang Liu could not hear. “Come with me to meet my family during the new year..”

 

 

Chapter 886: 886 Winter Break

....

 

The first thing Tan Ron did after returning to the country was to go to school. She had already missed a lot of classes. She was not worried about the content of her studies, but she was worried about her attendance. If her attendance was too low, the school would count her as failing.

Fortunately, she was going to win glory for the country this time. Although the other party canceled the evaluation, the school still felt very honored and did not pursue the matter of her taking so many days off.

Jiang Min and the others had already returned from the hospital. Lang Yue’s leg still needed some time to recover, but he had also returned to school. It was almost the end of the semester, and they had to complete their tasks.

Only Shang Jin didn’t come back. She applied for a leave of absence.

“The wound on her face is slowly recovering. Auntie said that it was the medicine you gave her that helped her recover. She wanted to thank you in person, but you were overseas at that time and they couldn’t contact you.” Jiang Min said to Tan Rou, “Auntie wanted to wait until All Jin recovers before coming over to treat you to a meal. She still can’t go outside for now just in case the injuries on her face get worsens by the weather.”

“How has Senior Shang been feeling recently?” Tan Rou asked with concern.

“She’s been in a good mood recently, and she even shared a photo of her wound healing with me yesterday. Xiao Rou, thank you so much. If you hadn’t bravely rushed in to save me, we would have choked to death from the smoke.”

Tan Rou shook her head slightly and said, “Senior, you were the one that influenced me. When I saw you downstairs, you still had strength. If you give up on Senior Lang Yue and the others and run down, you’ll be fine, but you didn’t. You didn’t come down even though the stairway was right next to you.”

“I still have a brother at home. Even if something happens to me, he will take good care of my parents.” Jiang Min said embarrassedly. “But Shang Jin and the others are all only children in their family. Xiao Chen still has to support his sick mother. If something happens to them, their families will be in great pain.”

“If something happens to you, all of us, including your parents, will be very sad. So, Senior, remember to ensure your safety too,” Tan Rou said.

!!..

Jiang Min’s heart warmed. “You are a gentle person.”

Tan Rou went back to school for a few days of classes, and then the exams began. After the exams, it will be winter vacation.

“I’m leaving.” Tian Tian pulled Tan Rou’s hand and said reluctantly, “Once I go back, I’ll have to wait for a month before I can see you again. I’ll miss you.”

Tan Rou smiled slyly. “If you miss me, you can come over and play with me. My big brother will be there too. The company will be on a break during the new year. Big Brother has more time to rest. He will have time to accompany you.” Tian Tian blushed and lowered her head. “What are you talking about? Isn’t he going to be accompanying you?”

Tan Rou said, “I have a boyfriend. I don’t need him to accompany me. They should be accompanying their girlfriends. My boyfriend will accompany me, and your boyfriend will accompany you.”

Tian Tian didn’t retort. She said softly, “Then we’ll meet again after the New Year.”

During the winter break, Tan Rou’s friends left the Capital one after another. Li Li and Xu Yan took the high-speed train back home together. Lu Qing and Liang Lu stayed in the Capital for a few days. Then, the Lu family sent a car to pick up Young Master Lu and his future girlfriend.

Tian Tian was the last to leave. When she left, Tao Zhi drove her to the airport. He only drove away after he saw her board the plane.

He wanted to drive Tian Tian home, but Tian Tian was very timid. She said that she wanted to go home and tell her parents about her boyfriend before letting Tao Zhi meet her family.

The winter break was a total of 35 days. Tan Rou used this time to design a second-generation robot out. She also had to make a new ointment for Shang Jin. The effect of the old ointment was already great but Tan Rou planned to sort out the formula and use it to treat burns to benefit more people.

Tan Rou’s work schedule was packed. Other than exercising every day, she was working at the workbench. The Tao family felt that Tan Rou was working too hard and wanted her to rest for a while, but Tan Rou said that she could hold on and that she would rest when she could not hold on anymore.

“What should we do?” Grandma Tao looked worried. “I haven’t spoken to Rourou in a long time.”

“Humph. I haven’t spoken to her since she came home,” Grandpa Tao said..

 

Chapter 887: 887 Relax

....

 

“If only she could rest for a few days. I’m afraid that her body won’t be able to take it if she works too hard,” Grandma Tao said.

Mrs. Tao suddenly remembered something. “Oh right, Rourou’s second cousin seems to have returned to the country. He said that he’ll be arriving in a few days. Why don’t we get him to bring his siblings out to play and relax for a few days?”

As soon as she finished speaking, Tan Ron’s second cousin, Yu Can, called. He said that he had already arrived at the airport and that he could visit his dear aunt now.

Mother Tao smiled helplessly. “You’re so sweet. Wait there, I’ll get your cousin to pick you up.”

After the phone call, Mother Tao planned to go to Yuanxi Manor and drag Tan Ron out. If Tan Rou didn’t come out to bask in the sun, she would grow mushrooms.

“Xiao Rou, are you still working?” Mrs. Tao walked into the room quietly. When she saw Tan Rou fiddling with her computer, she lowered her voice and asked, “How long will it take to finish?”

Tan Rou put down her laptop. “It’s done. I’m just doing the final test.”

Mother Tao looked at the pile of things on the work table and said in admiration, “Rourou is amazing. 1 can’t even understand what these are.”

Tan Rou said, “Everyone has something they’re good at. For example, I can’t quite understand your design drafts too.” Tan Rou could understand the design of a house, but she rarely dabbled in this field of knowledge, so she wasn’t as good as Mrs. Tao.

“If Rourou is interested, I can teach you, but not for the time being. You haven’t rested for a long time. Rest well for a few days,” said Mrs. Tao.

!!..

Tan Rou was prepared to rest for the next two days. She also knew that her high-intensity work would cause her family to worry. “Okay, I’ll finish this matter today then have a good rest tomorrow.”

Mrs. Tao heaved a sigh of relief when she heard her promise. “It just so happens that your second cousin has returned to the country. I’m planning to let your second cousin bring your siblings out to play for a few days. Do you want to join them?”

Tan Rou had heard of this second cousin before. It was said that he was a very powerful computer genius. “Sure, I also want to meet this second cousin.”

Yu Can got out of Tao Zhi’s car. He was dragging his suitcase with one hand and carrying his travel bag with the other. He was also carrying a huge computer bag on his back.

When he saw Mother Tao, Yu Can threw the bag in his hand to Tao Zhi and jogged to Mother Tao. “My dear aunt, long time no see!”

Mrs. Tao couldn’t resist his enthusiasm and took two steps back. “Walk properly. Don’t run.”

Yu Can slow down. “Aunt, did you miss me?”

Mrs. Tao covered her mouth and laughed. “1 miss you. 1 miss you so much. 1 dream of you every night. 1 dream of you running around naked on the ground.”

Yu Can blush. “Auntie, how can you bring up the embarrassing things that happened to me when 1 was young?”

“Who asked you to walk so impolitely?” Mrs. Tao said.

“In the future, if you continue to run and jump around, I’ll print out your embarrassing childhood stories and hang them on a banner.”

Yu Can was about to argue when he saw a very beautiful girl standing beside his aunt. This girl looked very similar to his aunt and eldest cousin.

“Is this cousin Xiao Rou? Cousin Xiaorou looks so similar to Auntie!” Yu Can ask excitedly.

Yu Can had met Tan Jing before. He had never liked Tan Jing. One reason was that Tan Jing liked to put on an act, and the other was that Yu Can felt that Tan Jing did not look like someone from his family. His aunt and uncle were both so good-looking. As their daughter, why didn’t Tan Jing inherit any of their good looks?

Later on, when Tan Jing and Tan Ron’s matter was exposed, he realized that it was not because Tan Jing had inherited her aunt and uncle’s merits, but because she was not their daughter at all.

“My cousin is so beautiful, just like a fairy from heaven.” Yu Can said with a smile.

Tan Rou chuckled. She had long heard about her uncle’s family from her big brother. He talked about this second cousin the most. It was said that he was a very cheerful person. After meeting him today, he was indeed a person who was very good at talking.

“Hello, Second Cousin.” Tan Rou greeted him with a smile, hoping that this second cousin would be quiet and not be too troublesome..

 

Chapter 888: 888 Computer Genius

....

 

“It’s cold outside. Hurry up and go home.” Tao Zhi reminded.

Yu Can, who was only wearing two pieces of clothing, shivered. “It’s indeed much colder in China than in C Nation.”

“You’re only wearing a few clothes, it’s no wonder you’re cold. “Hurry up and go back and change into thicker clothes. Don’t catch a cold.”

Yu Can chuckled. “Auntie, I’m not cold at all.”

Tan Rou sized up her second cousin. She noticed that his tongue was a little pale. “Second Cousin, do you often have stomach discomfort and constipation?”

The smile on Yu Can’s face immediately disappeared. Constipation was an old illness that had troubled him for many years. He had also seen a doctor, but it was useless. He might as well not care about it. Anyway, he would not die. “Cousin Xiaorou, how can you say that about me?” he said with a fleeting gaze. “I’m a cool bro. How can I be constipated?”

“Don’t listen to his nonsense. This kid is always constipated. A few days ago, your aunt asked if there was any way to cure it.”

Yu Can was on the verge of tears. “Auntie, don’t tell everyone about my secret!”

Tan Rou probably knew about Yu Can’s illness. “Cousin, your body has been getting heaty. You should eat less fried food in the future. You also need to eat some food that can dispel dampness and relieve heat.”

Yu Can was a little surprised. “Cousin Xiaorou, you know medicine?”

!!..

Tao Qi, who was standing at the side, said loudly, “Of course. My sister is very powerful. She had good grades, treated patients, and even researched robots. She even assembles computers. The computers she assembles are incredibly high-tech!”

Recently, he had been using Tan Ron’s computer to study and play games. It was much faster than the other computers at home. Yu Can couldn’t stand other people talking about computers. As long as someone mentioned it, he would have to compete with them.

“Cousin, do you know how to assemble your computer?” Yu Can’s interest was piqued. “Do you want to compete with me?”

Tan Rou wasn’t in the mood to compete with Yu Can in assembling the computer. She was afraid that Yu Can would cry.

“1 don’t think so. You just got off the plane. You should rest more.” Tan Rou said.

Yu Can was not sleepy at all. “No, no, you have to compete with me once. Otherwise, I won’t be able to sleep today.”

“Little Can, don’t compete with anyone you see. If you lose, you’ll have to cry and look for your mother again,” said Mother Tao.

“I don’t ‘look for my mother anymore,” Yu Can said with a blush.

“Cousin Xiao Rou, do you dare to compete with me? Don’t worry, 1’11 go easy on you. I won’t let you lose too badly,” Yu Can said provocatively.

Tan Rou originally didn’t want to compete with Yu Can, but since he had already said so, wouldn’t she lose face if she didn’t accept the challenge?

“Since cousin has said so, then 1 will do it with you then. 1 hope you won’t cry like how you said earlier!” Tan Rou said with a smile.

“I stopped crying a long time ago,” Yu Can said angrily.

Since they didn’t have any spare parts with them, they didn’t compete in assembling computers. Instead, they competed in programming. Under Tao Qi’s strong request, the two of them competed to make simple mini games to see who made the most interesting game and did it well.

Tan Rou and Yu Can each sat in front of their computers and immediately got into work mode. Their fingers flew across the keyboard and soon, a simple game interface was created.

Tao Qi was the judge. He looked at Tan Ron’s work one moment and then at Yu Can’s work the next. He didn’t know which to choose.

In the end, Tan Rou was faster than Yu Can and finished mini-games 20 minutes ahead of him.

The little judge Tao Qi went to play the game with satisfaction. This was a Mini game of deciphering. There were only four small levels, but each level was very playable. Tao Qi played for half an hour before he solved the first level.

On the other side, Yu Can had just completed his game as well. His game was a control game, so it was relatively easy to get started. Tao Qi also tried it out for a while, but it ended very quickly. There was not much experience.

Tao Qi couldn’t differentiate between good and bad games. He liked both games. If he had to choose, he would choose the game made by his sister. This game was more challenging.

Yu Can didn’t believe her. He went to play Tan Ron’s game. After the first round, he said to Tan Rou, “You’re the computer genius, aren’t you?”

Out of politeness, Tan Rou also tried his game. “Your skills aren’t bad either..”

 

 

Chapter 889: 889 Challenge Again

....

 

Yu Can felt that he had nowhere to put his face. He knew very well how his game was going. It was not as good as Tan Ron’s game.

The game he made was too simple. As long as one had hands and could operate a computer, they would be able to play this game. However, Tan Ron’s game not only required manipulation but also required a lot of brainpower to solve puzzles. He didn’t know how Tan Rou managed to stuff so much content into the Mini games in a few hours.

“No, making mini-games isn’t my forte. Let’s compete in something else.” Yu Can refused to admit defeat.

Tao Zhi couldn’t stand it anymore. He picked Yu Can up and said, “My mom asked you to come over to play with my sister, not to give her more work.”

Yu Can moved a few times but did not struggle. “Big Cousin, please let me compete with Little Sister Xiao Rou again. Otherwise, I won’t be able to eat.” “What does it have to do with me that you can’t eat?” Tao Zhi threw Yu Can aside and said to Tan Rou, “Rou Rou, ignore him. He’s been playing computer games for too long and his brain is damaged. He goes crazy whenever he sees a computer. Don’t spoil him.”

Tan Rou looked at Yu Can’s expression and thought that he was very amusing. Thus, she said to Tao Zhi, “Big Brother, since that cousin wants to compete with me, let’s have another match.”

Yu Can was very happy. He quickly ran to Tan Rou and said confidently, “I definitely won’t lose to you this time.”

“What is Second Cousin competing in this time?” Tan Rou asked him.

Yu Can said with a smile,” I’m not good at these mini games. What I’m good at is cracking all kinds of firewalls. Why don’t we compete in computer hacking and see who can reach the finish line first?”

Tan Rou frowned. This wasn’t a good competition. Under normal circumstances, Tan Rou wouldn’t hack into other people’s computer systems unless there were special circumstances.

!!..

“Country Y has been very hostile to our country these past two days. They’ve been posting articles about our country on the Internet and have even detained two of our transport ships. So, 1 plan to hack into their official system to teach them a lesson.” Yu Can say it very casually. “Do you want to compete with me to see who can enter their system first?”

Tao Zhi didn’t agree with this method of competition. If it wasn’t handled well, it could easily cause diplomatic problems.

“As long as we don’t leave any traces, they won’t be able to find us. Moreover, even if we scold them, they wouldn’t dare cause trouble for our country. After all, it’s not an honorable thing to be scolded.”

His suggestion stimulated Tan Ron’s desire to fight. It had been a long time since she had played a challenging game. A country’s security system was more difficult to overcome than an individual’s security system, and Country Y’s security system was especially difficult to deal with. It would be interesting if they used this in the competition.

“Fine.” Tan Rou sat back in front of her computer. “When do you plan to do this?”

“Xiao Rou, why are you messing around with him?” Tao Zhi asked anxiously.

Tan Rou told Tao Zhi to relax. “Big Brother, it’ll be fine. This isn’t the first time I’ve done something like this.”

Tao Zhi turned to look at Yu Can. “Yu Can, stop right now. Don’t cause trouble here!”

Yu Can also sit on a chair. “Big Cousin, just quietly watch our performance!”

With that, the two of them entered the battle without the referee’s call.

Tao Zhi had no way to stop them, so he could only watch from the side with Tao Zheng and Tao Qi. The two brothers were very interested in what Tan Rou and Yu Can were doing. They kept discussing which stage they had conquered.

Tao Zhi and Tao Qi couldn’t understand the symbols on the webpage at all. They were just watching the show.

“Done.” Tan Rou finally pressed the ‘enter’ key and typed the words she wanted to send.

On the other side, Yu Can was still trying to break through the last firewall. It was a little difficult. He had been trying for a long time, but he still could not break through this firewall.

When he heard Tan Rou say ‘done’, Yu Can immediately turn his head to look at Tan Ron’s completion level. He saw that the official website of Country Y had appeared on Tan Ron’s computer screen. There were no other words on it, only one sentence: “Be a good person!”

“You win.” Yu Can drop the mouse and lean back. “That’s strange.. How could I lose?”

 

Chapter 890: 890 My Idol Is My Sister

....

 

Tan Ron tapped the keyboard a few times and the computer returned to its original state. Two smiley face balls were swaying on the computer screen as if showing off Tan Ron’s two victories.

“Why did i lose?” Yu Can said bitterly.

“Ever since I became an adult, I have never lost.”

“You’ve never lost as an adult?” Tan Ron asked. Yu Can scratched his head in embarrassment. “At that time, I often lost to someone, but ever since he left, 1 haven’t lost.”

Tao Zhi had also heard of that person. “You’re talking about the number one hacker on the international hacker rankings, right? 1 remember that his name is KQ. He didn’t reveal any other information.”

“Yes! KQis my idol,” Yu Can said with admiration. “If 1 can see KQand compete with him once in my lifetime, then I’ll be satisfied to die right now.”

Tan Rou smiled. “You don’t have to do this.”

“You don’t understand,” Yu Can said. “KQis my god. You can’t understand how much 1 worship him.”

Tan Rou didn’t think that there was anything to admire. She deliberately said, “Maybe KQis a dog.”

“Don’t you dare insult my idol. You can say bad things about anyone, but you can’t say bad things about KQ” Yu Can said angrily.

!!..

Tan Rou shrugged. “Alright, alright. 1 won’t say anymore.” She was too childish. How could she call KQa dog? How could she scold herself?

“Xiao Rou, since you’re so good, why don’t you join the global hacker rankings?” Yu Can calmed down a little. “I don’t know if you’ve already participated.”

Tan Rou nodded lightly. “I’ve already participated in it long ago. Besides, you know my ranking.”

Yu Can’s brain was still in a daze. “When did you participate? What’s your code name?” Yu Can’s code name was ‘Leader’ and he was ranked second on the hacker rankings.

Tan Rou didn’t answer him directly. Instead, she repeated what she had just said. Yu Can still couldn’t remember who Tan Rou was. Just as he was thinking hard, Tao Zheng spoke.

“Xiao Rou said that you already know her code name and that she has long participated in the rankings. Why don’t you think about who you know?” Tao Zheng reminded.

Yu Can’s brain snapped back to reality when he was reminded. “I only know a few of their names, but I’ve met them all before. We even held a meet-and-greet in C Nation last time. At that time, we sent an invitation to KQ but he didn’t reply to us. Rourou can’t be KQ right?”

After saying that, he laughed.

Tan Rou also laughed. “Aiya, how could I be KQ?”

” Yeah,” Yu Can said. “KQis a guy, and Rourou is a girl.”

“How do you know KQis a man?” Tan Rou asked.

Yu Can explained, “Of the top ten hackers in the world, seven of them are men. Since KQis so powerful, he must be a man too.”

“KQhas never revealed his identity.” Tan Rou continued.

Yu Can was caught in a dilemma. “So is KQa man or a woman?”

Just as he was in a dilemma, he received a message from abroad. It was from his hacker friend. His friend told him that KQhad just appeared. Yu Can was very excited. He quickly asked his friend where KQhad appeared.

His friend told him that KQhad just broken through to Country Y’s official website and wrote a few words on their webpage: ‘Be a good person!’

Yu Can felt that this sentence sounded familiar. He suddenly glanced at Tan Rou and was stunned. His friend was still calling him over the phone, but he could no longer hear her.

“So, you are KQ?” Yu Can was so shocked that she could not close her mouth. “My idol, KQ is my cousin?”

“It seems so,” Tan Rou said.

Yu Can rolled his eyes and fainted from excitement.

Tao Zhi was the closest to him and quickly reached out to support him. “Don’t faint!”

Yu Can kept smiling foolishly. “Hehe, my sister is KQ. My idol is my sister. I’ve finally met my idol.”

When Tan Rou saw Yu Can’s silly look, she felt that it was better not to tell Yu Can her other code names. KQwas Tan Ron’s initial code name. Later, for convenience, she used many other code names, and these code names all appeared on the rankings..
