Chapter 41

Soon, the news that “Little Ah Di” was holding a concert was spread across the Internet.

Ye Erruo ate the watermelon while she browsed the Internet. If she remembered correctly, Gu Feirou shot to fame through this concert.

She curled the corner of her red lips into a mocking smile. Well… she would meet her fans in person. If everyone knew in advance that “Little Ah Di” had gone through plastic surgery, then… haha!

Ye Erruo put the half watermelon that was in her arms to a side, staring blankly at the computer. All of a sudden, her eyes lit up. She was thinking of looking for someone!

Ji Sichen!

He was her senior. They once took part in a school performance together and had some interaction. He was a computing genius. He should be doing his internship now. Three years later, he would be poached by the government to become a very powerful hacker, but he accidentally leaked certain information and was shot… She did not know the details. She only remembered that it was reported on the television.

Perhaps it was better to poach him now and she might be able to save his life.

She logged onto Qi E (1. A Tencent open platform for content and information) which she had not used for ages. She dragged someone out from the list and browsed his recent status. She saw a thread half a year ago with a telephone number in it. She wondered whether it would still get through.

Ye Erruo glanced at the cell phone next to her, deciding to make the call.

The call was connected after more than ten seconds.

“Hello, who is this?”

Ye Erruo’s heart was thumping. She was surprised that the call got through. “Is this Senior Ji Sichen?”

The person on the other end of the phone turned silent briefly before answering, “You are…”

“I am Ye Erruo. Senior, do you still remember that we performed in the school play together?”

“Ye Erruo!!?” There was a sudden excitement on the other end of the phone.

“…Mmm, have you graduated? Where are you working now?”

“Why would you look for me all of a sudden?”

Ye Erruo thought for a while before saying, “I wonder if you are free. Can we arrange to meet? I have a favor to ask of you.”

Ji Sichen agreed right away, “Okay.”

Ye Erruo covered her mouth and smiled. “Great!”

She did not expect that Ji Sichen would agree to her invitation right away. She had yet to tell him what favor she was asking of him.

After chatting for a short while, Ye Erruo hung up the phone, with a bright smile on her face. She looked up, gazing toward the door and had a shock.

“W-what are you doing here?”

Mo Jiangye held a cup of water in his hands, leaning against the door. There was a chilling look in his eyes. Ye Erruo had the shivers from his fierce gaze.

“W-what’s wrong?”

“Come here.”

Ye Erruo did not put on any shoes and walked barefooted toward him.

Didn’t he go out? When did he come back? And he was in his house clothes!

“When did you come back?”

Mo Jiangye looked downward at her, lifting her chin with his cold index finger, forcing her to gaze directly into his eyes. “You have a beautiful smile.”

Suddenly he squeezed her chin, pushing her to the adjacent wall, encircling one arm tightly around her waist, as he said coldly, “Who was it!?”

Ye Erruo was stunned. Did he overhear the conversation that she had with Senior Ji? How much of it did he overhear? She did not want to hide it from him. However, she was worried that he would forbid her from contacting Ji Sichen after she told him everything. Given his possessive nature, he would not allow her to have too much contact with the opposite gender. She had similar experiences in her previous life. Any man who got too close to her would vanish for no apparent reason. She had found out about this inadvertently in her previous life.

“A former classmate.”

“You are lying!!” His sinister and ruthless figure came closer to her. He pressed himself tightly against her. He lifted her up such that she was forced to step onto his soft slippers.
