Chapter 399: Not Worthy
Translator: _Min_ |
Jiang Yue’s expression stiffened, and she shouted at Gu Dai, “Don’t flatter yourself. Why would Brother Song Ling pester you?”
Gu Dai, uninterested in engaging further, stepped forward to leave.
Jiang Yue continued, “Brother Song Ling likes me, not you. So it must be you clinging to him. Now you won’t even admit it!”
Su Ting, who had just approached, overheard Jiang Yue’s words and spoke coldly, “As if Song Ling is worthy of Daidai’s attention. It was clearly him who went to the Gu Group to ask for her help.”
Gu Dai, following the sound, looked puzzled and asked, “Why did you come?”
Su Ting walked up to her side, dutifully replying, “I was a bit worried since you hadn’t come out for so long…”
Gu Dai nodded and said softly, “Let’s go.”
Jiang Yue watched in a daze as Su Ting protected Gu Dai, helping her into the car before they sped away. She nearly ground her teeth in anger.
Remembering Song Ling’s recent behavior and believing that he indeed sought Gu Dai’s help, her irritation grew.
Jiang Yue hadn’t forgotten her reason for visiting the Song Corporation. As she walked in, she overheard several men excitedly discussing.
“I doubted that lady at first, but she truly has real skills.”
“I’ve been trying to decrypt that surveillance for days. Every time, it crashes back to the beginning. But she solved it in minutes.”
“I heard from Assistant Zhao that the lady is from the Gu Group. I wonder if President Song can recruit her to our company. I have so many questions for her.”
Listening to these praises, Jiang Yue’s face grew darker.
She had been shopping at a clothing store half an hour ago when she suddenly received a call from a foreign hacker.
The hacker informed her, “Miss Jiang Yue, the surveillance footage is about to be breached. You should prepare in advance.”
Jiang Yue, startled, shrieked, “That’s impossible!”
Realizing the stares she was attracting, she lowered her voice and asked, “Didn’t I ask you to completely delete the system? How could it still be found?”
The hacker replied, “The opponent is too skilled, far beyond me.”
Jiang Yue stomped her foot in anger, cursing inwardly at their incompetence. She exclaimed furiously, “I gave you so much money before, and this is how you handle things? I don’t care how you do it, but I absolutely won’t allow the repair to be successful!”
The hacker responded coldly, “You only asked me to destroy it, not to handle any aftermath. Informing you is already a favor.”
Jiang Yue, staring at the disconnected call, wished she could smash her phone.
Suppressing her anger, she rushed through red lights to the Song Corporation, determined to find out who had ruined her plan.
As she continued to hear the men’s admiration, she thought of Gu Dai, who had just left the Song Corporation, and a possibility crossed her mind.
Her temples throbbing, she blurted out, “Gu Dai!”
She was convinced that Gu Dai had decrypted the surveillance and vowed to deal with her someday for spoiling her plans.
Zhao Xuan, seeing Jiang Yue, frowned and began, “President Song is quite busy right now, maybe…”
But Jiang Yue didn’t let him finish and pushed past him into Song Ling’s office.
Song Ling, looking up to see Jiang Yue, asked coldly, “Why are you here?”
Jiang Yue closed the door and approached him, saying, “Brother Song Ling, I heard that Yuyu was injured, so I came to ask about her condition.”
Song Ling’s gaze darkened, fixed intently on Jiang Yue.
Jiang Yue, feeling panicked inside but maintaining a facade of calm, added, “After spending so much time together, I’ve come to treat Yuyu like my own sister. I was very worried when I heard about this.”
Song Ling stood up and approached her, asking coldly, “How did you know about Song Yu’s injury?”
The incident was not a proud moment, and Wang Lan had insisted on keeping it private, so they hadn’t told anyone.
Song Ling pressed on, “I don’t recall telling you about it, and I’m sure my mother wouldn’t have either!”
Jiang Yue, digging her nails into her palms to regain composure, answered, “I have a friend who works at the hospital. They told me about it.”
Changing the subject, she mentioned, “I just ran into Gu Dai at the door..’
