Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Huang Mao really wanted to beat up Zhao Yu a and took his money, he held back and resigned himself to playing the role of a doorkeeper.
In a short while, Huo Xiao Xi arrived. Upon seeing Zhao Yu again, she was instantly furious, rolling up her sleeves, ready to charge at him.
Before she could reach him, Huang Mao stopped her.
After some struggle, Huo Xiao Xi took another seat. However, her eyes remained fixed on Zhao Yu, glaring fiercely at him.
Zhao Yu didn’t even noticed it, seemingly oblivious to the world around him.
In reality, Zhao Yu didn’t have the time for these trivial matters. All his focus was on programming.
Artificial Intelligence was an essential tool he had initiated earlier, and he was determined to develop it.
Huang Mao was initially worried that Zhao Yu might secretly transfer the money to Liu Si Yu.
With Zhao Yu deeply engrossed in programming, Huang Mao couldn’t help but admire him.
This guy’s really was a top student!
As far as he knew, Zhao Yu wasn’t from the computer science course. Yet, the speed at which he was coding rivaled that of computer science students. He might even better than any one of them here.
Over an hour passed.
Click!
With the last line of code typed, Zhao Yu finally stopped.
On the computer screen, a line appeared automatically.
“Please name me, my master!”
“Xiao Liu then!”
Zhao Yu casually named it and then took out his phone, installing a program that would allow him to communicate with “Xiao Liu”.
Zhao Yu started tested the capabilities of the Artificial Intelligence.
It was indeed more powerful than the artificial intelligence of this world, but it hadn’t reached the level where it could think independently.
This was mainly limited by the host and server capacities, as the computational power was constrained.
Nevertheless, Zhao Yu was quite satisfied as it fully met his initial needs.
Soon, with Xiao Liu’s assistance, Zhao Yu rapidly began understanding this world.
Especially the affairs concerning Bing City.
When he accessed certain confidential files that ordinary people couldn’t get his concern rose up.
“It seems my plan needs modification…”
He had originally thought that the Su family was just one of the many prominent families in Bing City. However, based on the confidential files and various clues provided by Xiao Liu,
He realized that the Su family ruled Bing City.
The city lord of Bing City belonged to the Su family, but the city lord wasn’t the head of the family.
By estimates, the head of the Su family held a position even higher than the city lord.
The primary reason for this was the Su family’s role in representing the government in selling goods in crucial sectors.
Most importantly, the rights to manage and sell firearms were held by the Su family. From this, it was clear that the Su family’s military power was unchallengeable in Bing City.
As the bell rang signaling the end of class, Zhao Yu remained seated, revising his plan.
During this time, Huangmao approached to remind him of something. Seeing no response from Zhao Yu, he didn’t dare disturb him further and just waited.
Huo Xiaoxi, still holding her grudge, was the last student to leave, keeping her eyes fixed on Zhao Yu.
After a long while, Zhao Yu slowly came back to his senses, formulating new ideas and plans in his mind.
“It seems feasible…”
Without Uncle Da or Colonel Chu, he had to rely on himself for all strategic planning.
Zhao Yu was fully aware that his plans were in a bit rough. But for now, this was the best he could do.
After finalizing the details, Zhao Yu stood up and said to Huang Mao, “Now, arrange a meeting with your boss…”
Huang Mao’s eyes lit up, “Are you going to help me?!”
“Yes, I’ll help you settle things. Go and arrange the meeting.”
Zhao Yu nodded.
Without pausing, he continued to jot down notes and sketches on the computer, swiftly producing several designs. He then issued some commands to Xiao Liu.
On the other side, Huang Mao finished his call, “Brother Yu, it’s set. We’ll meet in a private room at the KTV outside the school. How’s that?”
“Let’s go.”
Zhao Yu closed his laptop, ready to leave.
However, just as he was about to step out, a petite girl stepped forward to block his path.
“You can’t leave!”
Zhao Yu looked down and responded, “You’re that girl from before?!”
Huo Xiao Xi was instantly furious, realizing from Zhao Yu’s tone that he had no idea she had been glaring at him for almost two hours.
“You, stealing my seat and letting your dog bite someone…”
Zhao Yu touched his nose, surprised that she would hold such a grudge over just a seat. Did she really want to make an issue out of this?
“What do you want?!”
“Apologize!”
“What for?!”
“Seats are for everyone. How did I steal your seat?!”
“If you don’t leave, I’ll call someone!”
“You dare to call someone?!” Huo Xiao Xi was so angry her nose seemed to skew. She looked like she wanted to bite him.
The blonde also acted as a bodyguard and took the initiative to block in front of Zhao Yu.
“Do you dare to leave your name?”
Huo Xiao Xi knew that it was not a good time to start a conflict, so she asked Zhao Yu for his name.
“My name is Zhao Yu. 1 welcome you to find me anytime!”
With that, he walked passed her and left the classroom.
Huo Xiao Xi did not stop him.
“Zhao Yu? Is it that Zhao Yu who jumped into the lake?”
She quickly took out her phone to search for information related to Zhao Yu. As expected, she found some candid photos of Zhao Yu taken by students. The person in the photos was identical to the one she had just confronted.
“It’s really him!”
Huo Xiao Xi was surprised, not expecting that she had a conflict with such a celebrity.
“So what if he’s famous? Bullying me will make him regret it!”
She quickly became enraged and then made another phone call.
Zhao Yu followed Huang Mao out of the school and entered a nearby KTV. They proceeded to a large private room.
Inside the room, five men and three women were singing. As soon as they saw Huang Mao enter, they immediately stopped.
“Turn off the music!”
The one who leading the group was a man in his thirties, with a stubbly face. Upon seeing Huang Mao, he smirked, “Have you collected the money?!”
Huang Mao moved aside, revealing Zhao Yu behind him.
Zhao Yu took a look around the room, walked in, and pulled a chair to sit down, minding his own business.
Stubble-bearded Big Brother gave his underlings a signal. Two of them moved to the door, blocking the exit.
He sneered, “Huang Mao, what’s the meaning of bringing someone here?!”
Huang Mao quickly explained, “This is my Brother Yu. He’s here to pay the money for me…”
Stubble-bearded Big Brother immediately broke into a smile, “Alright, do you prefer a bank transfer, card payment, or cash…?”
He pulled out a POS machine from a woman’s purse.
It was evident that he was very familiar with this kind of transaction.
“Hold on, shouldn’t 1 at least know what this is all about?”
Stubble-bearded Big Brother wasn’t concerned. After all, they were five men on his side. They weren’t worried about being outnumbered.
“There’s not much to say. This Huang Mao slept with my woman. If 1 don’t take any action, how can 1 maintain my authority among my men?!”
The surrounding underlings tried hard to suppress their laughter.
From their reactions, Zhao Yu almost concluded that this was a scam.
The so-called ‘Big Brother’s woman’ was just an excuse to extort Huang Mao.
“So, how much do you want?”
The Stubble-bearded Big Brother, observing Zhao Yu’s composed demeanor, quickly inflated the initial figure he had in mind, “Two hundred thousand!” “What?!”
“Wasn’t it one hundred thousand?!” Huang Mao accused them.
“Hmph!”
“A hundred thousand per day. You’re a day late, so it’s two hundred thousand now…”
“This…”
Huang Mao was panicked. Just as he was about to protest, two underlings grabbed him.
He could only turn to Zhao Yu for support now.
“I brought him here. Do you think he’ll run? Let him go.” Zhao Yu calmly said.
The Stubble-bearded Big Brother, noticing that Zhao Yu was not fazed even after hearing the sum of two hundred thousand, felt he had a big fish on the hook. He immediately grinned and rebuked his underlings, “Let him go!”
The two underlings instantly released Huang Mao.
Stubble-bearded Big Brother, with a gleeful expression, looked at Zhao Yu and asked, “May I know the name of this gentleman?”
“Zhao Yu..”
