Chapter 522: Mysterious Hacker Strikes, Ruining All Plans
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
That night, when Ou Shenzhi returned to the company, he saw many people hurrying around in the office.
Seeing this, Ou Shenzhi hurriedly approached to inquire about what had happened. “What’s going on? You all seem quite uneasy.”
“President Ou, something has happened. Our company’s system was hacked. All the drawings and data related to the aircraft have been deleted. The engineers have been trying for over two hours, but there’s been no progress.”
As the person in charge spoke, he wiped the sweat from his forehead with the back of his hand. The incident had happened suddenly, and they hadn’t realized the intrusion of hackers. By the time they discovered the problem, the data had already been completely wiped out, beyond recovery.
Ou Shenzhi pushed him aside and quickly went to the studio to check the computer. Sure enough, all the data related to the aircraft had been completely wiped out, leaving no trace behind.
After staying for a few minutes, Ou Shenzhi returned to his office. He turned on his own computer and found that only the data related to the aircraft had been deleted, while other data remained untouched.
Sitting in his office chair, he realized that the hacker’s target was very clear—it was specifically aimed at the aircraft project.
His first reaction was to suspect Mu Chengxi. He believed that Mu Chengxi was behind this incident, and his actions were entirely for Wen Xin’s sake.
Ou Shenzhi leaned back in his chair, closing his eyes. Since childhood, he had detested Mu Chengxi. Elder Ou had valued Mu Chengxi far more than him. Even though he was his grandfather, all the resources were invested in Mu Chengxi, a fact that Ou Shenzhi could never understand.
Everyone thought Ou Shenzhi’s dissatisfaction with Mu Chengxi was because of Wei Shisheng. In reality, only Ou Shenzhi knew that Wei Shisheng was just a pretext for him to oppose Mu Chengxi. He couldn’t compete for Mu Chengxi’s resources, so he went after his woman…
Unfortunately, he was wrong. Mu Chengxi didn’t care about Wei Shisheng at all.
Just then, Ou Shenzhi’s phone rang. Seeing the caller ID from Independent State, he quickly picked up the phone and answered.
An angry voice came from the other end. “Ou Shenzhi, who did you offend while working on the aircraft project? Why did it attract the attention of the Hacker Alliance? Do you know that my computer has been hacked by the Hacker Alliance, and the entire system is down?”
After two hours of repair, Meng Ci finally figured out why hackers had invaded his computer and caused it to crash. It was all because of the aircraft project, which was full of flaws.
He had originally intended to use this project to win over the Ou family in the capital, but later realized that the project’s practical value was not very high. So he handed the entire project over to Ou Shenzhi.
Unexpectedly, it resulted in such a huge loss, nearly billions within just two hours.
“I… I’m sorry…” Ou Shenzhi had promised Ou Zhengfeng not to reveal Wen Xin’s affairs, so he hesitated and did not reveal the truth.
Although all the data related to the aircraft had been wiped out, it was already engraved in his mind. Even without the data, he wouldn’t give up. He knew how much impact the success of this project would have.
“Forget it. Since those people are here for the aircraft, I don’t want to provoke unnecessary trouble. Let’s stop this project. As for other cooperation, I’ll find someone to discuss it with you.”
Meng Ci hung up without waiting for Ou Shenzhi’s response. He always spoke to Ou Shenzhi in a domineering manner, completely disregarding Ou Shenzhi’s status.
Looking at the hung-up phone, Ou Shenzhi pondered for a moment before throwing his phone on the desk. He had invested too much in this project. It couldn’t be abandoned just like that.
He would definitely persuade Wen Xin to help him and hand over all the perfected data to him.
In the early morning, Wen Xin turned over in Mu Chengxi’s arms, her body sore and tired. She felt a little irritated by her soreness.
Mu Chengxi felt Wen Xin’s movements, so he hugged her from behind.
“Awake? Want to sleep a little longer?”
“You’re so annoying. Stay away from me…”
Wen Xin’s voice was hoarse, with an indescribable sexiness, causing Mu Chengxi’s hand…
Wen Xin pushed away Mu Chengxi’s restless hand. Her thoughts were a bit chaotic at the moment, and she didn’t want to deal with Mu Chengxi. She just wanted to sleep.
Seeing that Wen Xin ignored him, Mu Chengxi didn’t continue teasing her. He held her in his arms, accompanying her to sleep peacefully.
When Wen Xin woke up again, Mu Chengxi was no longer in the bedroom. Wen Xin turned over, picked up her phone from the bedside table, and glanced at the time. She got up from the bed and went to the bathroom to freshen up.
After freshening up, Wen Xin changed into a home outfit and walked out of the bedroom. As she walked out, she saw several people sitting in the living room.
Among them, Tang Xingyue and Ling Xu’er sat on the sofa playing games, while Wen Huai and Liang Luoyu were also on their phones, seemingly protecting the two girls in the game.
Hearing Wen Xin coming downstairs, Tang Xingyue raised her head and greeted Wen Xin with a sweet smile, her eyes curved. She looked very cute.
Wen Xin responded with a faint smile and walked to Tang Xingyue’s side, gently pinching her cheek.
“When did you all come over? Did you come together?”
“Yes, Xu’er accompanied me to record piano pieces. When I mentioned to Wen Huai that I planned to report to school tomorrow, we came together to find you.”
Tang Xingyue replied in a gentle tone, with excitement evident in her voice. Wen Xin felt her happiness.
“Let’s go the day after tomorrow. We can go together at eight in the morning. There’s no need to go too early.”
The notice from Beijing University stated that the registration period was from August 28th to September 1st. Wen Xin didn’t want to go so early, so she thought September 1st would be just right.
“Miss Wen, your meal is ready,” Mu Bei said, glancing at the time. It was already three in the afternoon, and he was momentarily unsure what to call this mealtime.
Hearing Mu Bei calling her, Wen Xin gently patted Tang Xingyue’s head before heading towards the dining room.
Sitting at the dining table, Mu Bei served the food to Wen Xin, placing a bowl of rice in front of her.
“Take your time, Miss Wen. Master Xi and Master Gu went to the laboratory together. I heard there’s been progress in the project!”
