Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Jiang Li’s competitive spirit rose. She wanted to follow the clues and get the other party’s IP address.

However, once she made her move, she realized that this guy was like a slippery snake that was hard to catch.

Those people were actually able to recruit such a powerful hacker. Her eyes were filled with killing intent. She finally put in most of her energy and began to feed the other party with all kinds of viruses. The other party was soon unable to withstand it. There was no system in this world that she could not break.

The firewall began to open up to her. The progress bar was very fast, and soon, she entered the system.

However, just as she was about to grab the video, she realized that the video data had been completely covered with a special method and could not be restored.

She lazily leaned back on the chair. There was no expression of defeat on her face. Interesting. This was because they had known that she was going to come over, so they had taken action first.

Who was this hacker? Her eyes were filled with amusement.

She first let go of the hacker’s matter, then used another computer to log into her account. It had been more than two years since she logged in to WeChat.

She looked at a message from her adoptive parents.

“Li’er, I haven’t heard from you in a long time. How are you doing in the Jiang Family?”

She remembered that before this, for the so-called kinship, she was afraid that her biological parents would be sad, so she heartlessly cut off the connection between her adoptive parents.

It was so stupid. The person who truly loved you did not need you to please them, and would still treat you well.

Her hand paused on the keyboard for a while, but she still put it down.

She still had a lot of things to do at the moment. If she contacted her adoptive parents now, she might get them into trouble. She might as well deal with things in the future and contact them without any distractions.

When the time came, she would have to apologize to them properly.

She made up her mind secretly.

Jiang Li casually scrolled through the message and saw another profile picture flashing.

It had been two years since she had contacted Wei Ziheng. She did not know how his medical team was doing.

She opened the message and saw that Wei Ziheng had sent her a bunch of messages. Most of them were asking where she was and why they had lost contact.

She did not scroll any further and directly typed a line of words.

“How’s the progress of the Beta-type Medicine research?”

After sending the message, Jiang Li intended to go offline. Who knew that Wei Ziheng seemed to be waiting for her, replying to the message instantly.

“Wow, it’s boss. Oh my God, it’s been two years. You’ve finally appeared!”

“Looks like I’ve finally touched the heavens after sending such a message of confidence.”

“Boss, I’ve missed you so much. When are you coming back to the lab? We really can’t do it without you.”

Messages popped up one after another. Jiang Li rubbed her forehead. Every time she saw him, she felt like she was being bombarded.

He was really too enthusiastic.

After a long while, Wei Ziheng finally said honestly, “The progress of the research and development is slow because we’ve encountered a small problem…”

“Lack of money?”She hit the nail on the head.

As expected, Jiang Li guessed it right and he became mute.

“Speak!”Jiang Li was too lazy to waste time with him and asked another question.

Wei Ziheng first sent a sobbing emoji.

Then, he listlessly admitted, “Yes, there is a problem with the research fund.”

“How much?”

“Two million. Boss, I have let you down!”

“I’ll think of a way to get the money. Wait for my message.” After sending the message, she ignored Wei Ziheng and went offline.

Jiang Li could not ignore the noise coming from outside anymore.

Those people were going to destroy the house.

She opened the door and looked outside. ‘Damn, Jiang Man is really destructive.’

The Jiang family felt like they had been wiped out. Nothing was good.

As soon as Jiang Man saw her, she pounced on her like a zombie virus and was about to bite her.

Jiang Li did not stand on ceremony and let Jiang Man fall.

In the next second, Jiang Man screamed and was knocked to the ground by Jiang Li.

“Ahh, Manman, how are you?” Mother Jiang ran over and hugged her, glaring at Jiang Li with blood-red eyes.

“How can you treat Manman like this? She’s your sister!”

“Yes! How can you be an elder sister? You have no tolerance at all. Do you know that fighting between brothers and sisters will lead to a huge disaster?”

Jiang Li said coldly. “I only know that if I don’t fight back, she will bite me to death.”

She did not let Jiang Man fall headfirst out of consideration for their sisterhood.

“Dad, Manman is very talented in demolishing a family. She can go to the construction team and get a job.”

“Jiang Li, don’t think that you can really marry Fu Jiuxiao. Dream On!” Jiang Man shouted hysterically. “Do you think that mom and dad brought you back so that you could be a rich young lady? They just want you to be a substitute for me so that you can marry into the Xu Family!”
