r peak?

After being free of accusation, Gu Xiyu returned to work again at the company.
He and Ji Chen didn’t avoid being together.
They rode in and out of the company in the same car together every day.

After being busy for a few days, Gu Xiyu finally got a holiday.
Ji Chen happened to need to travel abroad this week.
Gu Xiyu immediately booked a ticket and took the high-speed train for most of the day to the address he had read from the spam advertisement.

That address was of a hardware store on an old street.

Standing outside the hardware store was a man with a big belly.
He was about 50 or 60 years old.
He looked quite honest.
He was chatting with the bike repairer next door.

The shopkeeper outside the store noticed Gu Xiyu.
He put his hands in the pockets of the warm padded jacket, walked up to him, and asked vigorously: “Young man, what’s the matter with you?”


The shopkeeper saw the surprise on Gu Xiyu’s face and said cheerfully: “This place is small.
Only a few people pass by every day.
So I can tell at a glance that you are from a different place.
Are you lost? Do you need any help?”

Gu Xiyu asked tentatively: “I want to find someone.
Are you the only one in your shop?”

“Ah, there’s another guy who helps me at work.” He glanced back at the store and stopped in a corner, “How come you are playing games again, huhh you lazy ass!!! Hao Zi?! Come out, someone is looking for you!”

Gu Xiyu wanted to speak but stopped.

He wasn’t sure if the person he was looking for was in this place.

The person inside seemed to be cursing.
Gu Xiyu could barely hear him shouting: “I told you, if someone asks about me don’t tell them I’m present.
What if they want to kill me?!”

What came out of the shop was a boy in his twenties with his hair trimmed and dyed in a non-mainstream appearance.
He was wearing a black and white jacket, shaking in the cold wind.
When the other party’s eyes fell on him, his impatient expression suddenly became very surprised.

Regardless of the fact that the shop owner was still nearby, the boy named Hao Zi grabbed his arm and walked into the store: “You…… you are finally here!”

“Your previous number isn’t active anymore.
If I hadn’t accidentally learned from my cousin that you had joined the same company that he works, I wouldn’t have known how to contact you!”

Gu Xiyu was slightly taken aback: “Your cousin?”

“His name is Chen Han.
He should be a staff member of your company’s Human Resource Department.
I don’t know if you have any impression of him.”

Of course, Gu Xiyu has an impression of the boy who is particularly enthusiastic and talkative.

Haozi’s full name is Chen Zihao.
He is a technical professional and can be regarded as a professional hacker.
He takes some related jobs in private, so he has got many enemies even though he doesn’t intend to provoke them.
So he needs to live a low-key life.

The relationship between Haozi and the original owner seems to be pretty good.
Gu Xiyu was almost certain that he was the one who had helped the original owner set up the high-end programs.
But he was not sure whether the other party has data backups.
Gu Xiyu was considering how to speak so that no flaws will be revealed.

“My Data…”

He paused for a while to observe Hao Zi’s expression.
But he didn’t expect the other party to look upset: “Hey, you should have looked for me sooner.”

Hao Zi scratched his head and said: “This is not what you told me before.
If you didn’t take the initiative to contact me before last week, it means that something happened to you.
So you had asked me to send the hard drive to the address you have given me before.

Gu Xiyu was silent for a long time.
He then asked, “Have you still kept that address? I just want to confirm it.”


“I have, I have.” Hao Zi walked to his messy computer desk and flipped through it for a while.
He accurately found a piece of paper that had been crumpled and had dried light brown water stains on the corners.

The address was local, in F city.
It seemed to be the place where the original owner had lived before university.

After the hardware store owner came in, he turned on the retro TV set in the store and tuned to a business-related news station.
Hao Zi laughed and complained when he saw it: “Hey, you don’t even have the money to be a big boss, why do you still watch interviews of other big companies every day.”

The boss said angrily: “We poor people can also learn their business methods.
Maybe I will be able to open chain stores across the country someday, brat!”

There were still several magazines on the table in front of him.
He hadn’t expected to see the words ‘Fengming’ and ‘Tianhai’ on one of them.
So he grabbed it and read it.
It was mentioned that Tianhai and Fengming used to have a cooperative relationship, but because the former broke out with bad black material recently, including illegal operations, unqualified products, and even improper matters involving underground transactions, Fengming was interviewed.

The one being interviewed was Ji Chen’s secretary Jin Ke.
He clearly explained the relationship between Fengming and Tianhai.
He told everyone that neither Feng Ming was involved in it nor Feng Ming knew about it.

Gu Xiyu remembered that when he had gone to the company on the first day, he had also met a certain senior of Tianhai Group by chance.

The collapse of the cooperation between Ji Chen and Tianhai Group…was it a coincidence?

T/N: Every company that has good relation with Feng Ming is being targeted.

Gu Xiyu bid farewell to Hao Zi and hurried back to City Z, staring at the address in his hand in deep thought.

If the original owner knew that he might die, he would definitely borrow the original copy and send it to the person who is most important to him or who he wants to give it to in the first place.

………….Fu Nian?

Gu Xiyu had just returned to City Z and before he had time to confirm the matter, Ji Chen, who had returned from a business trip, suddenly called him and took him back to Ji’s house directly.

It was obviously a normal day but the lobby of the main house was very lively.
When he and Ji Chen went in, they heard those close relatives arguing noisily.
The expressions on their faces were not good at all.
They all looked like the nagging customers in the vegetable market.

Ji Zixuan had lowered his head and was standing beside Lin Fangru.
His expression looked a bit heavy and his brows frowned as if he was holding back something.

“How long has the company been handed over to Zi Xuan before such thing happened! Sooner or later the Ji family enterprise will be destroyed by him!”

Gu Xiyu heard the sound.
His eyes paused and he subconsciously turned to look at Ji Chen beside him.

He knows the original plot.
