Chapter 419 - Untitled (2/2)
‘Unless you want to die, stay away!’ Was he so angry to the point he was out of his mind? Save her, who else would call him Brother Chu? He knew it was her, but he warned to stay away unless she had a death wish. Did he want her to die?
No, he must have said it when he lost his mind.
He would not simply leave her as she was.
Ever since Rong Yan appeared, he had always kept his temper in check. Even if he was angry, he hid it. Despite how Ye Wei made things difficult for her, he ignored Ye Wei as he only had eyes for Rong Yan. When Bai Ye got too up close and personal with his Rong Yan, he could no longer keep it in.
With his jealousy this evident, she had no way of deceiving herself.
He had never, because of her, lost control of his emotions. When she was still his woman back then, Chen Yang was full of admiration for her and she felt that Chu Li was a tad cold toward her. She would, intentionally or unintentionally, walk closer to Chen Yang. He had never treated her the same way he treated Rong Yan.
She did ask Brother Chu whether he was not the slightest jealous.
His reply was, “I trust Chen Yang.”
She felt extremely sweet then and thought their love would stand against everything as they trusted each other.
But…
He would not allow anyone to even slightly touch Rong Yan. When compared to Chen Yang, Bai Ye was even more convincing. Why did he not trust Bai Ye?
No, he would not allow anybody else to touch his woman, not even their hands.
He was in love with Rong Yan!
She was long aware of the truth but was unwilling to admit that she had completely lost him. She was, however, unwilling as she surely would have a place in his heart despite those ten-over years of friends.h.i.+p.
It was Rong Yan’s appearance that turned all those feelings into coldness. It was all Rong Yan’s fault!
Black J coolly looked at Ye Wei and Bai Ye and said, “Your acting was a tad too obvious, no?”
Ye Wei raised her hands in innocence. “I was forced.”
Bai Ye also raised his hands. “Doctor’s instinct.”
Jason stared at them unhappily. “Were you deliberately doing that?”
Eleven shot him an ‘are you an idiot look’. Jason was clearly p.r.o.ne to bursts of anger. Thanks to that mountain of ice next to him, he could not afford to act up. A few of them looked in Fang Ying’s direction silently and discussed recent happenings.
“Bai Ye, as for the chip, there must be an insider in London. Did you get to the bottom of it?” Ye Wei asked with a slightly cold look. The leak of information from their organization was no small matter, and they were thankful they had the ability to reverse the leak. If there were a repeat, the consequences could be disastrous.
They could not expect to recover the leaked information once and again, especially when Mo Ye and Mo Jue still had their sights set on them.
“There is no breakthrough as of now. Given that only Chu Li and I have access to the mainframe, Ning Ning has also confirmed that fingerprint access does not grant immediate access to the mainframe. Since the information was leaked from the mainframe, I am indeed baffled.” Bai Ye deduced without hesitation. “I am guessing somebody snuck in through the ventilation duct and copied information without leaving a trace. As extremely few people in the world are capable of doing that, I am extremely baffled at that possibility.”
The terrorist organization’s internal protective systems were extremely formidable. The mainframe was located in the most secret location in the castle and directly managed by Chu Li. There was only one computer in the server room and only one access point. Anybody who wanted to copy information had to enter the server room.
In order to access the server room, one had to go through four identification systems, the first being Chu Li’s fingerprint identification, followed by a pa.s.sword identification, then Chu Li’s voice identification, and lastly Chu Li’s iris identification. n.o.body could expect access to the server room if they did not clear any of the four identification systems.
The temperature in the server room was consistent all year round. It had thermal sensors, IR sensors, and even weight sensors built into the ground. Once a person entered, the temperature in the server room would change and the alarm would ring. The IR sensors created an even more intricate web that was impossible to dodge. The weight sensors were triggered by even a drop of water dropping onto the ground.
With such extreme measures guarding the server room, he had no idea how the information was leaked. He checked all the ventilation ducts and confirmed that there was no human tampering. That explained why the loss of information was extremely baffling. Even Chu Li and Bai Ye, who were geniuses, were thoroughly baffled.
Back then, Jason and Black J had checked all the ventilation ducts to confirm there was no problem. Even Black J, the master thief amongst them, did not make it through the simulation Chu Li planned, which was to enter the server room through the ventilation duct in the roof. Even the master thief in Black J was unable to evade the heat sensor and IR sensors.
“If there is a first time, there will be a second time,” Eleven coldly replied.
“We’ve told Ning Ning about this last night, and he suggested adding a guard in the server room. Chu Li and I are discussing its suitability,” Bai Ye said. “His suggestions fit the current situations well. Even all the ventilation ducts are to be fitted…”
Bai Ye paused and said, “Fang Ying, what are you still doing here?”
Fang Ying did not seem to hear them and she looked in the direction that Chu Li and Rong Yan disappeared to, still in a daze. She seemed especially lost. Looking at her invoked pity. Everybody realized that that should not have been discussed before Fang Ying. While she would not betray them, rules were still rules.
As she seemed to be in a daze, Ye Wei shot a walnut at her spine. Fang Ying then responded and looked at Ye Wei in anger. “Ye Wei, when are you going to stop picking on me?”
“Who is picking on you?” Ye Wei coldly raised her eyebrows and impolitely replied. “We are discussing business, and you should not be sitting in. Scram.”
“I am not talking about that, but just now. What was going through your head when you made me so awkward before Chu Li?” Fang Ying was in extreme rage and glared at her. “Is there some unpardonable sin that I have committed that you have to pick on me?”
Jason also flew into a rage and said, “Little Ying, what are you saying? When did Wei Wei pick on you? I can’t pick that out, so stop slandering her, will you? What you did when you were much younger was nitpicking proper.”
Eleven curled her lips. That was aptly said. Did Jason really know whether Wei Wei was picking on Fang Ying? She was baffled.
“I… Brother Jason, that was ten years ago.” Fang Ying reb.u.t.ted.
Ye Wei coolly had her arms akimbo and said, “I always forgot to ask you this question. What is your basis for staying around here? As Scheming Chu’s woman? Has he admitted? Try it. Rong Yan and I were talking earlier, and he was definitely planning to manipulate me.”
