Chapter 212 - RONG SHUN (1/2)
LUO YAN walked towards the professor and peeked on the screen of his laptop. Just like he thought, he was typing strings of codes. Probably for some program or something.
”What are those codes for?” he asked.
Rong Shun didn't glance at him. He didn't even show any signs that he was surprised by the sudden appearance of some kid in his favorite computer lab. Instead, he just continued typing.
”Is it for a computer program?” Luo Yan asked again, not the least bit bothered that he was being ignored. ”Or maybe you're hacking into some site or something?”
That last one finally got Rong Shun's attention. He turned towards the direction of the annoying voice that suddenly disturbed his 'me time' and was momentarily speechless when he saw its owner. It was a beautiful kid, probably in his early teens. A boy who definitely inherited the best genes from both his parents, letting him have an almost perfect physical appearance. But Rong Shun quickly got over his surprise. If one didn't look closely, they wouldn't even notice that he was surprised for a second.
”What are doing here, kid? Lost?” he said, closing his laptop and putting down his legs.
Luo Yan smiled. He knew he would get this guy's attention once he mentioned the word 'hacking'. After all, when Rong Shun was still his thesis adviser, he would catch him hacking into some site. It mostly happened whenever he's pissed on a product he bought. He would then hack on the official website of the company that created that product. It's really nothing serious, mostly just childish stuff. Like putting a random doodle all over the site or shutting it down for a couple of hours. The IT department of those companies had never traced the hack back to Rong Shun. Which spoke highly of his skills as a hacker.
Luo Yan once asked him why he let him know about that little hobby of his. Was he not afraid that he would tell it to others? Or worse, use it as some blackmail material? He just said that he's not the type who would bother to waste his time doing something like that. He was kind of surprised when he heard that answer. Because it was the truth. He never expected Rong Shun who usually didn't care about his surroundings to be quite observant.
”I'm not lost. I came here with my friend,” he said.
Friend? Was there an excursion for middle school student today? But wasn't it the holiday? – Rong Shun thought.
”Yan Yan—” Shen Ji Yun who finally caught up with Luo Yan stopped what he was about to say when he saw the person he was talking to. ”Professor Rong,” he greeted with a slight bow.
”Shen Ji Yun, you know this kid?” Rong Shun asked when he saw this rather famous student.
Oh? So, he knew Shen Ji Yun. This guy only bothered to remember the name of students who impressed him. Well, Luo Yan had no doubt that Shen Ji Yun could impress Rong Shun. His appearance alone was enough for people to remember him.
Shen Ji Yun walked beside Luo Yan. ”He's my friend.”
That was rather an unexpected answer. And here Rong Shun thought this expressionless guy who almost seemed like a doll instead of a person wouldn't have any friends. Wait- how could this ice block have a friend this young?
”Don't you mean younger brother?” he said. ”I know it's not easy for you to have friends. But it's rather lame to pass of your younger brother as one.”
