Chapter 495: Chapter 495: Mysterious Organization Strikes Again Chapter 495: Chapter 495: Mysterious Organization Strikes Again But he couldn’t think of a good solution.

Additionally, due to the business affairs, Zhou Xinyu had been extremely busy lately.

If it weren’t for Qiao Yun, he wouldn’t have been so unlucky.

Zhou Xinyu kept a careful note of this and planned to settle the score with her later.

…

On the weekend, Lu Shiran invited Qiao Yun to study together.

Qiao Yun happily agreed.

After informing her family, Qiao Yun grabbed her study materials and left the house.

Upon opening the car door, Qiao Yun was taken aback for a moment by the person sitting inside and then she got inside.

“You know, boss, aren’t you a bit surprised to see me?” Pei Ya complained, as he had intended to startle Qiao Yun.

Qiao Yun glanced at him sidelong and quietly looked at him without saying a word.

Pei Ya immediately straightened up and quickly said, “The institute’s database was intruded upon yesterday, preliminarily determined to be by the same group that stole new life data a year ago, based on their modus operandi, this must be an organization.”

He added, “Of course, they were not successful this time.”

Qiao Yun frowned, “Organization?”

“All clues point to abroad, and we still don’t know exactly who it is. We were worried about not being able to catch them, but now they’ve come right to us,” said Pei Ya, who came to meet Qiao Yun specifically to tell her about this.

“I have already arranged for people to look into this, but since it’s not our own territory, the investigation might be quite challenging.”

“Mm,” Qiao Yun nodded thoughtfully, “use ‘Shield’.”

Pei Ya was slightly surprised, “Is this situation severe enough to use the research institute’s top-notch defense system?”

‘Shield’ was a protection system personally developed by Qiao Yun that surpassed the technology of this world; anyone caught by ‘Shield’ could not hide even deep in the mountains.

“It’s important,” Qiao Yun said without further explanation.

The new life project concerned the safety of number one; she didn’t want number one to become a target.

Because the core of the new life project was based on number one, as long as number one remained undiscovered, the new life project would be safe.

“I understand now,” Pei Ya said. “I knew the new life project would bring you great trouble right from the start. You insisted on pursuing this project, and now the trouble has indeed found you. I just don’t understand why you initiated this project?”

Qiao Yun asked him seriously, “Are you trying to teach me how to do my job?”

“Sorry, my mistake,” Pei Ya admitted his error typically quickly.

Qiao Yun nodded, “Safety protocol, copy it a thousand times.”

Pei Ya: “…”

He couldn’t escape the fate of copying it a thousand times.

Pei Ya felt aggrieved; he hadn’t said anything wrong.

When the new life project was first proposed, he was also young and vaguely understood what it meant.

He only understood it to involve using chips to control a person’s brain (that was his understanding).

At that time, he thought Qiao Yun wanted to rule the world and had even gallantly gathered his nearby allies to become a pioneer of the new regime.

The new life project was permanently sealed following its experimental failure on Professor Qiao, only to be revived by Lu Zhanxing’s car accident this time.

However, it was proven that the new life project could indeed give people a new start.

If this information were leaked, it was hard to imagine the kind of danger Qiao Yun would face.

The entire international community would likely go crazy over this project, as who wouldn’t want a new life.

Fortunately, as long as no one in the Tianqi Research Institute betrayed her, this matter would remain tightly concealed.

Pei Ya dropped Qiao Yun off at the drink bar, and as he got out of the car, he suddenly remembered something, “Right, aren’t the final exams coming up? They want you to set a few of the questions.”

Qiao Yun shook her head, “That’s not good.”

“Why? You used to do it before.”

“I will be taking the exam myself; it would be cheating,” Qiao Yun said sternly, “No cheating allowed.”

“Okay, I’ll tell them.”

Pei Yao really wanted to say, you were cheating in the exam to begin with.

At a nearby cafe, someone suddenly exclaimed in surprise, “Isn’t that President Pei? Who’s the little girl with him?”

“Where is it?”

A group of wealthy ladies craned their necks to see.

“When did President Pei get a girlfriend? I never heard him mention that.”

“President Pei has a girlfriend? That’s a pity…”

Ye Miaoshan glanced absentmindedly and was instantly stunned, blurting out in disbelief, “Why is she with President Pei?”

She was truly astonished.

How did these two unrelated people end up together?

“Miaoshan, do you know that girl?”

“She’s my elder sister’s daughter,” Ye Miaoshan explained.

The ladies, upon hearing this, immediately indulged in gossip.

“Is the Lu Family going to have a marriage alliance with the Pei Family?”

“Their fate is too good, that’s President Pei, the boss of Shengqiao Group.”

“Miaoshan, why didn’t you tell us earlier that the Lu Family was going to have a marriage alliance with the Pei Family?”

“Impossible,” Ye Miaoshan said indignantly, “How could the Pei Family possibly have a marriage alliance with the Lu Family, don’t overthink it.”

What on earth was going on with Qiao Yun?

It was enough that Li Hanzhou was protecting her, but how did she end up with Pei Yao too?

“So, it’s President Pei who is pursuing Miss Lu.”

“Pfft,” Ye Miaoshan scoffed, “That’s even more unlikely, how could President Pei be interested in her?”

The ladies looked at each other.

Isn’t Ye Miaoshan their aunt? Was it really appropriate for her to say this?

But if it’s neither pursuit nor a marriage alliance, what is it then?

Just for fun?

Ye Miaoshan narrowed her eyes and surreptitiously took out her phone to snap a photo, planning to confront Su Mian with it and give her a good talking-to.

Look at your daughter, she’s not as well-behaved as she seems.

Flirting with this one, then that one.

Thinking of Su Mian’s ugly expression later on, Ye Miaoshan felt immensely pleased, finally catching an opportunity to mock Su Mian.

…

Qiao Yun walked into the beverage bar where Lu Shiran had already arrived, sitting with Yu Fan, Cheng Yi, and Li Miao.

Each of them had a textbook in front of them.

Qiao Yun nodded approvingly, the future flowers of the nation are indeed diligent.

As she approached, she heard Li Miao pouting, “Ah, this is so tough; I can’t do it. If only I could know the answers in advance.”

Cheng Yi pushed up his glasses, saying thoughtfully, “It’s not impossible, if needed, Yu Fan could hack into the school’s system.”

“Really?” Li Miao looked at Yu Fan with admiration, “Are you that skilled?”

Yu Fan blushed under Li Miao’s big eyes, “I, of course, I can, how could I not?”

“I don’t believe it, show me right now,” Li Miao said excitedly.

Lu Shiran scoffed, “I can do it too, I am top-notch in information technology as well.

Li Miao immediately looked at Lu Shiran, her face full of admiration.

Lu Shiran lifted his head and puffed out his chest, that’s right, I am that amazing, don’t worship me, I’m just a legend.

Qiao Yun: It seems the future flowers of our country are lacking a lesson.

Qiao Yun took out her phone, silently upgraded the school’s security system, and completely eradicated their chances of cheating.
