Chapter 232: Confirmed Gaze, It’s a Big Boss

As the car got closer, everyone could see it clearly.

The left headlight… seemed cracked.

Cheng Huo turned around and asked Tang Qing, “Is this your uncle’s car?”

Uncertain, Tang Qing’s defined face was full of hesitation. “I… I think so?”

Cheng Shui’s face was still calm and tranquil as he stood upright and stared at the classic car.

While they were talking, the car had already reached the gate.

Cheng Shui and the others subconsciously took a step forward.

The driver’s seat of the classic car opened and a man in his forties came out. He was wearing a long gray down jacket.

Tang Qing’s uncle wasn’t mixed-blood and looked clean and gentle. His features weren’t as sharp as Tang Qing’s, and a pair of wide black glasses hung on the bridge of his nose.

His eyebrows were knitted lightly, and his dressing was simple but strange. His style had a mysterious vibe that drew attention away from himself.

As per Tang Qing’s description, he seemed rather eccentric.

Geniuses on the news… all had such an antisocial personality. Cheng Juan was the perfect example, so Cheng Shui and the others understood this very well.

Cheng Shui took a few steps forward and smiled. “Mr. Tang, you can just give the car key to our servant, he’ll help you park your car.”

A servant stepped forward respectfully and politely as he spoke.

Tang Qing’s uncle stopped and handed the car keys to the servant. Then, he glanced at Cheng Shui and reached out to prop his glasses up. After greeting them politely, he said concisely, “My surname is Lu.”

Cheng Shui was speechless.

Cheng Huo glanced at Tang Qing.

Tang Qing immediately reacted and explained, “Mr. Cheng Shui, I forgot to mention, my dad follows my grandpa’s surname, while my uncle follows my grandma’s.”

Cheng Shui reacted and glanced apologetically at Tang Qing’s uncle. “My apologies, Mr. Lu.”

Mr. Lu only shook his head in understanding and remained silent.

He was really antisocial.

“Uncle, let’s go to my workplace first,” Tang Qing said at the appropriate time.

Cheng Huo followed one step behind them, taking his phone out and sending a message to the group—

[Everyone, withdraw first.]

**

Today, there were few people on the manor’s road and it was very quiet.

Before her uncle’s arrival, Tang Qing had said that he was antisocial and would be annoyed by a swarm of people. He didn’t like strangers and wasn’t even willing to see her too many times.

He had refused to join the Hacker Alliance because of this.

As a show of courtesy to Tang Qing’s uncle, Cheng Shui had given instructions to the whole manor.

They only met a few people on the way to the information hall.

Along the way, Cheng Shui, who had always been talkative, didn’t speak much either.

The information hall was usually very busy, but today, the lobby was empty and only a dozen computers were turned on.

The blue screens had white codes written on them.

Seeing how incredibly quiet it was, Mr. Lu slowly relaxed his frown and loosened up.

Only Cheng Shui, Cheng Huo, and Tang Qing accompanied him. Xiao Hei came out of the corner with four glasses of water on its tray.

Seeing Xiao Hei, Mr. Lu’s expression relaxed even further and he took a cup of hot tea.

The tea was quite strong and had many tea leaves. He took one sip and put it to the side.

“Mr. Lu.” Cheng Huo was usually talkative, but he didn’t dare say too much now and only asked professional questions. “This is the simulation code. It’s a section I cut from Xiao Hei, and it has reached 89.3%. There’s another one that would restart every time it hits 100%…”

Turning on the computer, Cheng Huo opened another simulator and showed it to Mr. Lu.

“I apologize for my rudeness if it’s a trade secret.” Cheng Huo added another sentence at the end.

Xiao Hei had been developed internally by the Yunguang Consortium. Although Cheng Huo was interested in artificial intelligence, he didn’t want others to reveal their core secrets.

Mr. Lu glanced at the 83% progress on the computer and reached out to push his glasses. He shook his head and said, “It’s just a piece of management programming, not a core secret.”

He talked more when it came to professional knowledge.

He pulled out Cheng Huo’s chair at the computer desk next door and sat down. Opening the editing page, he started typing out a string of codes on the keyboard.

He typed extremely fast and even the eyes of Cheng Huo and the others couldn’t catch up with his hand speed.

Mr. Lu’s grandeur changed when typing the code on the keyboard seriously. His antisocial and unapproachable aura disappeared and his whole person seemed to glow.

Cheng Huo didn’t expect this Mr. Lu to be so easygoing to directly help them solve the problem.

He typed the code quickly and within twenty minutes, he tapped the “enter” key with a “pop”.

A blue progress bar soon appeared on the screen.

It jumped quickly from 1% to 100%, and within 20 seconds, the simulator started successfully and entered a three-dimensional space with a blue display!

At the same time, all the computers in the information hall that had stopped at the code page were renewed with the new progress!

Not to mention Cheng Huo, even Tang Qing was shocked!

Mr. Lu got up from his chair and walked to the side. “You can study it. If you have any questions, look for me again. I have a plane back to China at 7 am tomorrow, so I’ll stay here for the day.”

Cheng Huo quickly thanked him. He couldn’t wait to study the string of codes.

Cheng Shui didn’t understand this but didn’t waste the opportunity to showcase his talent in management. “Mr. Lu, let them study it. You can come to the guest room with me. It’s quiet there and nobody is around. Our Boss has gone out to meet the Mas family and will only be back in the afternoon.”

Mr. Lu’s brows relaxed further at the mention of a quiet room and he followed Cheng Shui out.

**

After Mr. Lu left.

Cheng Huo immediately sat down on the chair and typed on the keyboard with trembling hands. He turned to Tang Qing and said lightly, “The information hall owes it to you!”

They were all hackers, so Cheng Huo could naturally see from Mr. Lu’s behavior that his ability… was probably no less than the President of their Hacker Alliance.

Tang Qing was honestly very surprised. She wasn’t close to her uncle and had only heard about him from her father.

She didn’t expect him to come after a few words of persuasion and do them such a big favor.

Seeing that Mr. Lu had gone out with Cheng Shui, Xiao Hei went upstairs to call down all the people in the information hall.

Due to Cheng Huo’s instructions, everyone had been hiding upstairs, not even daring to move an inch.

With Xiao Hei’s notice, they immediately swarmed down.

“What the f*ck, there’s new progress.” Even Jerry limped down with a cane to look at the computer. He sat down and looked at Tang Qing with even more awe in his eyes. “Miss Tang, your uncle is too powerful!”

Nodding, Cheng Huo also stared intently at the computer screen. “He’s probably on the same level as our President.”

None of the men in the information hall were in the Hacker Alliance, so they didn’t really know about the god-like President.

They all exchanged glances after hearing Cheng Huo.

They had confirmed his gaze, he was a big boss.

Previously, because of Tang Qing’s identity, her strength, and her status as Cheng Huo’s junior, the people in the information hall had all respected her.

But now, because of this profound Mr. Lu, they were even more in awe of her.

Tang Qing smiled slightly. “I didn’t expect my uncle to come, but I’m glad to help everyone.”

**

People in the information hall hardly ate lunch.

Cheng Huo and Tang Qing stopped working when Cheng Juan came back in the mid-afternoon. Cheng Huo reluctantly left the information hall and went to the middle castle to find him.

Several people went with Mr. Lu to see Cheng Juan.

Meanwhile, Qin Ran trained with Cheng Mu and Shi Liming the whole day.

Both of their faces were quite swollen.

She trained until Lin Siran sent her a video.

“Ran Ran, did you go back to Beijing?” Lin Siran was in her dormitory. Her voice was suppressed with excitement as she showed the album in her hands to Qin Ran. “I’ve received the album you sent me! I queued for a long time today and couldn’t even get it. I love you so much!”

It was the album that Yan Xi had sent.

Qin Ran thought for a while and decided not to tell her that Yan Xi had sent it to her. She was afraid Lin Siran would go crazy, so she said it was from a friend.

“By the way, do you want that red flower?” She thought of Cheng Juan’s flower.

“Isn’t it expensive to send it back?” Lin Siran frowned.

“It’s not expensive, and you don’t have to pay for it,” Qin Ran glanced at Shi Liming and Cheng Mu and said very calmly.

Lin Siran nodded. “Ok, then send it back. My dad really wants it.”

She sent Qin Ran the address of the farm.

Glancing at the address, Qin Ran checked the time. Cheng Juan was probably back now, so she went to the study to tell him about it.

The study was on the third floor. She walked slowly towards the door.

Cheng Huo and Tang Qing were also going upstairs. Tang Qing walked in front, five or six meters away from the study.

When she saw Qin Ran, she couldn’t help frowning. Instead of talking to Qin Ran, she turned towards Cheng Huo and said, “My uncle is inside, right? He doesn’t like to see strangers.”
