Chapter 10: The First Time She Was Stunned

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Gu Man did not know that she was already the target of an investigation. She slept until dark.

It was mainly because she was hungry!

Gu Man pressed the bell. “Bring dinner to the room on the second floor!”

The butler, who had received the instructions, reluctantly called for the kitchen. “Send dinner to Second Miss’s room. Do as you please!”

They did not dare to disobey their master’s orders, but this master was not that important.

Gu Man looked at the bowl of rice, a portion of vegetables, and the few pieces of pork in front of her. How dare a servant be so arrogant?

However, on second thought, with a person like Qu Bei managing the household, how could the servants serve her well?

However, she had to endure it for now. She still had to save her energy to tackle the mission later.

“Wait!” Gu Man said to the maid who was about to leave.

Her voice was not loud, but the maid still stopped. She could hear the unquestionable tone in her voice and actually stood obediently at the side.

The maid did not understand herself. She was actually a little afraid of this Second Miss!

How was that possible? It was clearly her, Gu Man, who had begged everyone in the house previously. She didn’t even dare instruct the servants in the house to do anything.

“Bring it away!”

Gu Man wiped her mouth and suddenly looked up with a pair of sharp eyes. “Tell the butler that if he dares to fool me like this in the future, he’ll get chased out of the Gu Family. Don’t doubt me. I have plenty of ways! Understand?”

The maid quickly agreed and left the room with the plate.

When did this Second Miss have such an aura?

After eating her fill, Gu Man moved around and opened Weibo.

Gu Rou’s apology was trending.

Gu Man smiled and teased, “As expected, you never let go of any opportunity to flaunt yourself and trample on others.”

Gu Rou’s post was sincere. “I apologize to everyone again. It was because of me that today’s misunderstanding happened. I’m very sorry. Gu Man has always been in the countryside since she was young, she had always been this simple-minded. I hope this matter won’t affect her life. Thank you, fans, for your understanding and love. I love you!”

This post blew up the matter that had almost calmed down.

Some netizens who only knew how to look at the surface started to bombard her again.

“Gu Rou, I love you! You’re still as kind as ever!”

“Gu Rou, don’t be deceived by her simple appearance. This kind of person will put on a simple-minded mannerism and do everything possible to climb up!”

“It’s good that the Gu family has Gu Rou. It’s better to send such an unpresentable person back to the countryside!”

Gu Man casually scrolled through the comments. There were more than 100,000 comments, and not a single one of them was not praising Gu Rou and stepping on her.

It had to be said that Gu Rou’s flattery was ruthless.

However, in Gu Man’s opinion, she could just treat it as a dog barking.

She had more important things to do.

She had to put some effort into this hacker mission today. After all, her opponent was Nightfall.

Excited, she turned on the computer. Her slender hands moved quickly and skillfully on the keyboard. The screen kept changing.

Looking at her curled lips, she knew that things were completely under her control.

At this moment, a hundred-story building in Liang Country was shrouded in a layer of tension.

A thin middle-aged man in black stood in front of a large screen with a serious expression.

Dozens of young people behind him buried their heads nervously in front of their computers.

“What exactly is going on?” the middle-aged man asked unhappily.

Ten minutes ago, the most advanced system alarm in the building suddenly sounded. This meant that someone had broken into the system.

“Boss, someone is trying to crack our defense. A virus that we’ve never seen before has been implanted. We’re intercepting it!”

The middle-aged man was in disbelief. He asked coldly, “Someone can actually bypass your protective net and implant a virus? Have you found out who it is?”

“Boss, don’t worry. We’re already investigating. No one can break through our defenses! There was no one in the past, and there won’t be anyone now!” As soon as the subordinate finished speaking, all the computers turned black.

Everyone was stunned and silent.

Someone actually broke through the defense so easily!

This was the strongest “Nightfall System”!

The “Nightfall System” was the best defense system in the world. In the past thirty years, no one had been able to crack this system of the highest defense.

This was also the reason why Jimo, a top family, had spent a huge sum of money to use the “Nightfall System” in the past twenty years.

But at this moment, someone actually conquered it in just ten minutes.

“Start tracking immediately and lock onto the other party’s location!” the middle-aged man ordered.

“Yes!”

Everyone quickly tried to turn on the computer. Suddenly, a turtle crawled out of the screen and slowly swayed from one side to the other, leaving a trail of footprints.

The series of footprints had been deciphered.

“It’s Eel!”

“Eel? Where did she come from?”

The middle-aged man was furious. He gritted his teeth and said, “Find him!”
