What was the first thing a mob should do if he discovers some sort of scheme going behind him and his whole family?
In the whole dinner, Jiang Li acted the same, as though he didn't discover someone recording the conversation over the table. When he left, he didn't also immediately tell anybody about his suspicion about the bespectacled man.
All he did before he went back from the washroom was blackmail his system for a welcoming pack, demanding a bug and a tracker be put inside his Second Uncle and the suspicious man's phone. After that, he leisurely strode back and rejoined the people eating there, from time to time, pissing his Second Uncle off.
The man was just too likable to taunt considering the fact that his act of hiding his annoyance towards Jiang Li was just so funny and faked. Jiang Li couldn't help but wonder if this man also has a plot armor because the people around them easily believed in his excuses.
One time, he asked, "Second Uncle, you are currently the company's Finance Manager, right? I seem to hear you approving Mr. Lu's proposal to allocate some budget to the project of a money-laundering organization."
"...Xiao Li, where did you hear that? What money-laundering what?" The look of confusion in his uncle's face was just too brilliant. However, the young man noticed the sharp glint from the other's eyes. Jiang Li was guessing he grazed something but it was not necessarily really money-laundering.
'Ooh. Definitely money problems. As always. Let me guess. An underling transferring money to a fake project, its budget ending up as a bribe to whoever, if not to feed for their own pockets. Geez, so many people did that too to my real father's company.'
Jiang Li swallowed a piece of steak then half-heartedly replied,
"Just kidding. Heard it from a janitor. Of course, it's a lie. What credibility will a janitor have when it comes to the company's finances. Look at your face, uncle. It's so funny!"
"This kid!"
Time passed and finally, the dinner ended.
Jiang Li's father, Jiang Liuxian, gave his brother an apologetic smile as he knew his son had been weird and playful today, then after that, his family bade their farewell and left for their own home.
The next day.
Like what Father Jiang told his Second Uncle. He really had some Saturday classes and thus before the sun reached 45 degrees high up in the sky, he was already at the university.
The moment he stepped foot into the entrance, he immediately heard the hearsays and gossips about the famous rich beauty of their campus Zhu Li clashing against the gothic gangstress Xie Na.
He heard his name mentioned as someone those two girls were fighting over with. In short, in people's mind, yesterday's misfortunate events were a consequence of a catfight over a flower boy, him.
'Oh? Great. I'm witnessing personally the potential of humanity's ever so sacrilegious weapon - imagination. What damnably impressive creativity!' He sneered on his way to the locker room.
'Just because there are two girls and one guy involved, a minor fight became a huge gossip in people's ears. Just who the heck made it seem like a love triangle story? So cheap and tasteless. Why don't they make it into an adultery story if they're so capable?'
Jiang Li spent the rest of the days inside the university.
But instead of listening to the lectures, he brought his laptop to the business department's faculty room and bothered a low-key teacher there whose table was the most secluded to teach him a very important skill which could give him the potential to make or a break people's lives.
"Hey, lad. Are you sure you want to dabble in this? Why do you even want to learn this? Are you perhaps planning to hack into the girls' computers or phones here to get some nice x-rated materials from there? That's bad! And immoral! Boy, I have been teaching you for four years but I didn't know you are this corrupted!"
Jiang Li snorted, still typing and practicing with his laptop. He threw a dirty look at the unkempt man before him.
His name was Hao Gang, and he was one of the lecturers for ICT course, short for Information and Computer Technology. Given his pervert looking smile, who would have thought that this stupid looking lecturer was actually a top-notch hacker?
Girls hated him, so it was a wonder how Xie Na, from the previous life, discovered and made use of him.
When he approached him earlier, he didn't make known to this professor about this and only bluntly requested to learn to hack. The man agreed outright, looking as though he didn't mind sharing his crime skills to his students. For that while, Jiang Li didn't know whether to be relieved or dumbfounded.
While copying the program the bastard told him to copy, Jiang Li replied to the man's accusing remarks, "Sir, sometimes I simply want to question your IQ."
"Oh? Is it because I'm so smart that I guessed your roguish ambitions? It's natural, for your information. IQ is needed for hacking. But for real, do you really want to learn this just to get *cough* that kind of material?"
And then the foolish-looking man began to chastise him before recommending him some sites which no children should ever try to explore.
Jiang Li looked at him disdainfully. "You know I major in Business Administration. What more reason do I need to learn useful skills? And why would I waste time hacking to get those kinds of pictures?"
Hidden meaning: Girls will voluntary throw themselves to me. Why bother? I'll learn to hack to throw others' businesses into chaos? Duh, obvious.
Of course, while he was thinking of these, actually he had no intention to entertain the first thought and was even very scornful of all women.
Given what he went through in his past life, it was just too hard to trust women. In fact, he was already irritated that he would have to save stupid villainous women.
Hao Gang made a sour expression. Sneering, the man only threw Jiang Li some materials and then let him do self-study. The man was really too lackadaisical and carefree for a criminal found in hiding within a famous university.
Jiang Li's face turned dark. If only the system was more useful and could give information and do works for him, he wouldn't have to approach this peculiar and dirty-minded professor.
