Chapter 220: Danger

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

As soon as s.h.i.+ Xiao went to Africa, many people started eyeing the s.h.i.+ family covetously. They saw that Yuan Shu was brainless and gullible at that time, so they wanted to use her to take the opportunity to harm the s.h.i.+ family.

Tan Jing was no exception.

At the banquet at the s.h.i.+ familys ancestral home, Tan Jing looked for Yuan Shu and offered her an olive branch. He hoped that she could use the s.h.i.+ familys name to invest in his own software company. However, he was rejected.

However, after this incident, Yuan Shu borrowed one million yuan from s.h.i.+ Lu. Liu Lans husband, Xiao Sheng, used Shenglan Venture Investment Company to invest in Tan Jings software company.

However, this matter was done very discreetly. Other than the people from the s.h.i.+ family, no one else found out about this. Even Tan Jing himself didnt know who the investor of this sum of money was.

This matter had been going on for a few months. Yuan Shu had handed this matter over to s.h.i.+ Bin to handle, so she didnt pay attention to the subsequent development of this software company.

If she knew that this software company would focus on developing an attack program after Li Ci withdrew from Yuan An and caused a bug in Yuan Ans system, she would probably regret not withdrawing the money in time.

But that was all in the future.

Tan Jing had something on Yuan An, so of course, he would spare no effort to attack this loophole. At this moment, the most important secret code in Yuan Ans database had already been lost and was in Tan Jings hands.

Although Yuan Ans employees fixed the loophole in time and didnt completely lose all the program code regarding this online system, as long as they had this most important piece of code, it was only a matter of time before they replicated a similar system.

This was also what s.h.i.+ Xiao was most worried about now.

If Yuan An didnt fix the loophole in the online system before Tan Jings software company replicated this system and allowed the online system to go online again, Yuan An might have to face the risk of disappearing.

The biggest problem was that there was no time.

Thus, the most effective solution that s.h.i.+ Xiao could think of was to get rid of Tan Jing.

As for the one million yuan that Yuan Shu had invested, although he didnt want her to fail on her first investment, he had to consider the overall situation and make up for it later.

Li Ci, who had been watching from afar, had a grasp of the current situation as well. He knew s.h.i.+ Xiao too well, so he wasnt surprised by s.h.i.+ Xiaos decision. The only surprising thing was that s.h.i.+ Xiao handled this matter faster than he had imagined.

It was as if after s.h.i.+ Xiao went to Africa, he had become even more decisive. However, his previous ruthlessness seemed to have decreased.

The sky was getting darker and darker, while the surroundings were getting quieter and quieter.

The lights in the room werent switched on, and only the cold moonlight shone into the room through the floor-to-ceiling window. Li Ci was swirling the gla.s.s of red wine in his hand in front of the floor-to-ceiling window. His gaze was cold as he stared at the lake outside the window.

His phone suddenly rang. It was a call from Chen Chen.

Chen Chen was Chen Lus brother. Chen Lu was the one who pretended to be friends with s.h.i.+ Yi but kept framing s.h.i.+ Yi and causing trouble for her behind her back. Two days ago, the two of them quarreled at the c.o.c.ktail party.

Chen Lu was the illegitimate daughter of the family and wasnt favored, so she didnt have a deep relations.h.i.+p with Chen Chen, her brother. Chen Chen used Chen Lu to befriend s.h.i.+ Yi for his own benefit.

At the same time, Chen Chen was also one of Li Cis business partners. In fact, rather than a business partner, he was more like Li Cis agent in the business circle. His position was similar to Gao Shans, but his status was much higher than Gao Shans.

He had many business partners in the business world, and they were involved in almost all fields. However, these people only touched the surface of these fields and couldnt be considered outstanding in the field at all. This was something that Li Ci had been worried about.

What he lacked was a powerful a.s.sistant who could compete against those big bosses in the business world, so after s.h.i.+ Xiao returned this time, he could fight him head-on..
