Chapter 373 - Lu Jin (II)

In the private lane owned by a certain conglomerate, a tall man with dark hair and dark eyes instantly captured all of the staff's eyes.

The man was outstanding in appearance. His expressionless face and undisturbed eyes added a cool and mysterious aura around him. The female attendants who all fixed their appearances to perfection could not help but flush and fall in love at first sight.

However, with many men in black suits encircling the man as escorts, the surrounding female staff knew that they would not get a chance to catch his glance or even approach him. His status and wealth in society must be very high, a truly good target to climb the societal ladder. Unfortunately, the flight information of this handsome young man was kept private and they had no idea at all at who he was. 

Seeing the black Maserati that was waiting for him, he was surely a VVIP. The striking man strode with imposing grace and slipped into the car.

Lu Jin ordered his driver as soon as he got in. "Main LG Club."

"Yes, sir."

The driver who worked for him whenever he was in the country knew which LG Club he was talking about. Without any question, he drove quickly to the towering high-end building with the LG logo.

At the top floor, Lu Jin's team was waiting for their boss's arrival.

A woman with a short bob haircut was busily typing on her computer. She wanted to maximize the remaining time before their boss arrive and grill her with questions. The recent issue was under her responsibilities after all, thus it was considered her incompetence.

This was a huge issue. For sure, their scary boss would not be merciful to her.

"Xuyu, the boss is about to reach the building. Stop that and accompany us to meet him." 

Wei Kang had just finished his phone call. He straightened his suit and told the woman beside him to stand up and meet their boss.

"Sigh, Kang'ge, you go ahead. I am sure the boss wants me to finish this first rather than meet him with empty hands."

The man called Kang'ge frowned at Xuyu.

"I told you many times to call me Mr. Wei, especially in presence of other people and most importantly, our boss," he chided. "Besides, I thought you got some clues from the man who attacked our database? What happened?"

Xuyu furrowed her brows as well and shook her head. "It's a trap left by him. I don't know who this genius is but he caught me in this trap. I stayed for two days trying to get out of this shithole. He must have left this so that I will end up taking the bait while tried to crack his code."

Wei Kang felt that the next words would not be good, and they really were not. Xuyu's typing turned faster and the sound of pressed hard key resounded as she gritted her teeth and recounted the story.

"It turned out this was just nonsense! He deliberately led me in purpose. He left a fishing mark on this coding which would have become null when re-coded but for some reason did not, which threw me off track… The closing program was intricately linked to the start up, it led me to a circle…" She continued to spout a few jargons which no one in the room could understand. "…then now, I just found out that another data has been breached. Damn it! The boss will kill me..." 

Xuyue wiped her sweat which appeared despite the coolly air-conditioned room.

Wei Kang still could not fully understand what she said, but he knew that the matter was serious. "Alright, I will let boss know. Make sure you come up with something once we enter the room." 

He shook his head and left the room with his men, leaving the woman who was madly typing on the table. 

(A/N: Xuyu and Wei Kang appeared on Chapter 14, Xuyue was the one in the phone call with Mr. Wei/ Wei Kang. Mr. Wei was Lu Yin Ze's former guard send by Lu Jin in that hospital. In case you forgot.)

Lu Jin got out of the car and saw his men standing by the entrance. All of them bowed to him. He nodded back.

Mr. Wei started to brief him with the recent reports he had missed. He reported to him the overall situation of LG, then of Lu Yin Ze's movements recently, and finally to the current issue, which were the files that were breached.

"Xuyu is now tracing back the perpetrator's account. She said it might take a while, but she is a very capable hacker. I believe she will be able to trace it back to the person who did this."

Finally, Lu Jin who was quiet the whole time spoke out. "If she was this capable as you said, those files would never have been breached in the first place. Bring her to me. I want her to tell me exactly what happened."

"She was already at the top floor sir." 

As soon as Mr. Wei said that, the president's elevator opened. They went to the spacious President's office and the woman who had been typing earlier was now standing up by the entrance. She greeted them with a bow.

"Boss."

Lu Jin went in and gestured for her start reporting. All the other escorts left, leaving behind his own butler, Mr. Wei, and Xuyu.

"Boss, the one who breached the files is at least god-level in hacking. He knew exactly what files to target. He comes swiftly and leaves just as fast as well. He never left any trace-" Xuyu started to sketch out the enemy's skill so that his boss would not punish her too hard.

'See the enemy was quite skilled'. But then she suddenly remembered that she just reported a day ago to his boss that she found some traces of the perpetrator. This time, she really had to disappoint this scary boss.
