Lin Chuan was taken aback.

Little Landlady hummed lightly and then crossed her arms in front of her chest, “You tell me?”

Lin Chuan gave an awkward smile, scratching the back of his head, “That… cough, you go back to sorting the files first. I still have important matters to attend to!”

Suddenly, Little Landlady leaned in close to Lin Chuan’s ear, “Tonight I’ll grind you to dust!”

Lin Chuan was about to retort.

But Little Landlady had already made a hasty retreat, leaving behind a string of bell-like laughter.

“Mouth Pro King, you were begging for mercy last time!”

Lin Chuan watched Little Landlady’s retreating figure and smiled.

This was just a minor interlude, and his focus immediately returned to the critical issue at hand.

He then took out his phone and dialed a string of numbers—

Beep beep beep.

“Idol!”

It was Angelina’s voice.

“Hello, Angelina.”

Lin Chuan greeted Angelina as he walked back to his office down the corridor, “I have something I want to ask you.”

“Of course, no problems at all. Go ahead,” Angelina replied enthusiastically.

Lin Chuan strode into his office and closed the door behind him, “You must know quite a bit about AW, right?”

“Of course, they are considered competitors of ours in the hacker circle,” Angelina answered.

“Have you heard of Karl?”

Lin Chuan asked earnestly, phone in hand.

“Karl, I know him. He’s a core figure in AW. Rumor has it, he’s the most likely of the younger generation to take over AW.” In the world of hackers, Angelina was indeed a well-informed person, and she was quite familiar with Karl.

“That impressive, huh!”

Lin Chuan expressed his rare admiration.

Having the opportunity to take over AW was indeed strong.

Although AW was not much to speak of.

“Internally, it’s recognized that his hacking skills could rank in the top ten in the world, but still, a few notches below the idol!” Angelina laughed.

“What rank am I?” Lin Chuan asked smilingly.

“You are the God of Hackers, in a league of your own, not included in the rankings,” Angelina said sincerely, and then she asked, “Did you ask about Karl because you found out he’s made a move against you?”

Lin Chuan and Angelina had never met in person, but there was a sense of trust between them.

So Lin Chuan did not conceal anything from Angelina, “Yes, you alerted me last time, the person from AW who took action against my company was Karl.”

“I see.” Angelina realized, “So, idol, what are your plans then?”

Lin Chuan thought for a moment, “Have you met him in person?”

“No.”

Angelina explained, “You know, the unwritten rules of the hacker community, he also never shows his true face. I’ve never seen what Karl looks like.”
