Chapter 105: I’ll Help You For Five Million Yuan

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

“She’s indeed good, but no matter how good a person is, there are times when they’d give themselves away. Since she set foot in A-City, I have hired people to find her. The clues we’ve gathered so far are enough to find her.” Lu Zhi smiled calmly.

Jiang Yining was doubtful. “Why don’t you just catch her since you have all these clues?”

“I’m waiting for her to walk into my trap,” Lu Zhi replied. “A good hunter would always wait for his prey to enter the trap before catching it. Only then will the catch be 100% certain.”

Goosebumps appeared on the back of Jiang Yining’s neck when she heard this.

Why did she feel that he was telling her that on purpose?

Could he really have found out that she was Queen?

“Oh, then you can slowly catch her. I’ll get out of your hair now.”

Looking at her fleeing back, Lu Zhi pulled out the scant report on Jiang Yining when he asked his men to investigate her.

“Jiang Yining was born into the Jiang family in capital city. Fifteen years ago, both her parents died in a car accident. She and her twin sister, Jiang Rou, were adopted by a mysterious person and their whereabouts were unknown after that. Her most recent appearance was a year ago, at MIT in the United States, studying for a double PhD in IT and medicine. She returned to the country a month ago and came to A-City.”

Lu Zhi tapped on the words “MIT” and “double PhD”.

How interesting.

She was only twenty years old, but she was already studying for a double PhD.

It was such a waste of talent for her to be an undergraduate at Qing University.

Queen, Jiang Yining…

Could these two be the same person?

He would know soon enough.

Jiang Yining went back to her bedroom, her heart still beating wildly.

Based on her behavior, she felt that Lu Zhi would never know her true identity.

However, from Lu Zhi’s tone, she felt that he had already found some clues.

This wouldn’t do…

She couldn’t expose herself so early in the game.

Jiang Yining pondered for a moment before she took out her phone and sent a message to her friend K.

“K, can you do me a favor?”

K was also a top hacker.

Having K muddle the waters would probably distract Lu Zhi.

Not long after the message was sent, she received a response.

“Wow, our omnipotent Queen actually needs a favor?”

Sensing the sarcasm in K’s message, Jiang Yining’s face was cold as she typed her response, “Cut the crap and name your price.”

“You tell me what it is first.”

“Pretend to be me and log in to my account somewhere.”

“Stepped on someone’s toes, huh? They are tracking you?”

“Why are you asking so much? Are you going to help or not?”

“Oi, you are still mean when asking for help? I’m going to ignore you.”

Jiang Yining had no response to that message. All she wanted to do was to go through the network cables and blow up this guy’s head.

She took a deep breath and typed her reply slowly, “Sorry, I’ll stop being mean to you. Can you do me a favor, pretty please?”

“That’s more like it. I’ll help you for five million yuan.”

“Deal, but I can only pay you later.”

She had hundreds of millions of USD in her account, but she couldn’t touch the money because Gu Zhanqing had hired people to keep an eye on her. A large transaction on her account would attract his attention.

The 500,000 yuan she had put up for the bounty was the only liquid capital she had.

That was supposed to be her rainy-day money.

However, she decided to spend it to help Ye Xiaoxi.

Anyway, she could earn back the money very quickly.

As for K, Jiang Yining was very familiar with him. It shouldn’t be a problem to pay him later.

Sure enough, K gave her an affirmative answer.

“No problem. 1 trust the Queen’s reputation. But are you sure you’re okay? In our line of work, if someone has their eye on us, it means that our identity has been exposed and that’s quite dangerous.”

When a hacker accepted a mission, it was inevitable that they would make enemies.

If they were found out by their opponents, there was even the possibility of death.

K and Jiang Yining had never met each other. They had only communicated online.

However, the two of them appreciated and respected each other’s talent.

He didn’t want anything to happen to Jiang Yining.

“Yes, I’m fine. Don’t worry.”

“Alright then, wait for my good news.”

“Thank you very much.”

Jiang Yining sent the last message, then activated a program on her phone to delete their entire conversation.

That was her way of preventing people from learning about her relationship with K.

Jiang Yining heaved a sigh of relief after doing all this.

Because of Lu Zhi’s probing, Jiang Yining became more cautious. She treated Lu Zhi a little later that night and didn’t dare to say too much.

She was focused the entire time and looked only at his medicinal concoction.

However, the more she acted like this, the more Lu Zhi was certain of his guess.

But he did not say anything.

After the treatment session was over, Lu Zhi walked to the bathroom with a towel draped over his shoulders.

He said to Jiang Yining, who was packing up, “By the way, you must admire Queen. I will catch her within the week. I’ll arrange for the two of you to meet then. You must like it very much.”

He then gave her a mysterious smile.

Jiang Yining’s hand that was holding silver needles trembled slightly. “Sure. I look forward to meeting her.”

“Good,” Lu Zhi responded indifferently as he opened the door and went into the bathroom.

Jiang Yining exhaled a big breath and waved her fist at the bathroom.

What was he trying to do?

If he really wanted to catch her, couldn’t he just catch her now?

Instead of scaring her all day?

Jiang Yining packed up her medical kit and walked out of the room.

She did not sleep well that night and didn’t wake up until two o’clock the next afternoon.

She had two heavy dark circles under her eyes.

When she came out of her bedroom, she bumped into Qi Feng, who was walking towards her.

Jiang Yining suddenly had an idea. She stopped Qi Feng and asked, “By the way, Qi Feng, I heard from Lu Zhi that you guys are looking for Queen. Have you found her yet? If you haven’t, I know a lot of hackers. Maybe I can ask someone to help you find her.”

Qi Feng shook his head. “Not yet. I tried to intercept her three times, but she managed to escape.”

“Is that so? That’s really unfortunate.”

Jiang Yining couldn’t help but smile as she said this.

See? She knew that Lu Zhi was just scaring her.

How could they find Queen in such a short time?

“Young Madam, please help me find Queen.”

“Sure,” Jiang Yining replied with a smile.

“I’m getting some documents for CEO Lu.”

“Please go ahead.”

Jiang Yining was in a good mood after speaking with Qi Feng.

Qi Feng walked into the study, took out his phone and called Lu Zhi.

“Sir, Young Madam has indeed inquired about Queen.”

“Got it. Don’t alert the enemy.”

“Yes.”

Jiang Yining was rushing to school when she received news from a bounty hunter.

She looked down at the message while she walked towards the classroom. “Yining!”

Xiao Yeyu ran up to Jiang Yining and said enthusiastically, “I found Xiaoxi’s mother. Yesterday, 1 asked Xiaoxi for her mother’s photo and searched the entire A-City. I saw her mother by the roadside. She was trying to end her life at that time, so 1 brought her back to my house.”

Jiang Yining had just finished reading the message.

“Dou Weizhen has lost 800,000 yuan at a local casino and was picked up by someone from the Xiao family. She’s still at the Xiao residence….”
