"Plus, it's not like Chui Ming's a saint. He has quite a few skeletons in his closet. Yes, my target is Wu Rong and Wushuang but I would have to take him into consideration as well. You think he will sit quietly as I cross swords with his wife and mother-in-law?
"
nXia Zhi finally understood.
nHis sister was helping him take revenge against the unholy trinity. It was all parts of her vengeance plot.
nHe had been kept completely in the dark.
n
"Sis, you should have told me, I would love to assist you. You can't count me out in your vengeance plan, I'm your family, I'll stick by you,
" Xia Zhi commented.
nHis willingness to support her without question and without fear of retribution touched Xinghe.
nXinghe smiled and replied,
"Zhi, don't worry too much about it. I won't do anything that's overtly illegal, and I'm sure no one can trace it back to me.
"
nXia Zhi sighed in relief. He asked,
"That's good because I don't want anything bad to happen to you, sis. Then, what shall we do next?
"
nHe was ready to take the world down with her.
nThe thrill of the moment was coursing through his veins.
nXinghe stared at the laptop screen, a calculative sheen in her eyes.
n
"Now, we wait,
" she finally said.
nXia Zhi looked at her with surprise.
"For?
"
n
"For the reward to rise up to 10,000,000 RMB, then you come find me.
"
n
"10,000,000 RMB?
" Xia Zhi was slack jawed.
nChui Corps would offer so much money to fix a virus?
nXia Zhi wouldn't believe it but since his sister told him to wait for the number to climb, so he did. His biggest fear was for someone to manage to neutralize the virus before the reward reached that level.
nXia Zhi wasn't stupid, he had correctly guessed the reason Xinghe released the virus was to rip Chui Corps off.
nXia Zhi didn't mind the dirty tactics since their opponent weren't exactly fair players either but he was afraid her plan might fail.
nHe still found it quite implausible that Chui Corps would raise the reward money to 10,000,000 RMB.
nAnd yet, before dinner, Chui Corps did end up increasing the reward money to 10,000,000 RMB!
nThis time, Xia Zhi almost genuflected before Xinghe, she had reached a godlike status in his mind.
n
"Sis, how did you know this will happen?
" Xia Zhi asked her excitedly.
nXinghe replied with a faint smile,
"Because I have confidence no one else but me could take down this virus.
"
nIf this virus didn't meet a timely end, it would be the end for Chui Ming's company.
nHis company's main product was security software and Xinghe's virus specifically targeted his company's King Kong Internet Security.
nHer virus didn't do much, at least nothing seriously harmful, it would only crash the infected computer once or twice every day.
nWho would want that‽
nThe virus had been released for only a few days, but the financial losses for Chui Corps were astronomical. They needed to do everything they possibly could to stop the virus.
nTherefore, if someone really could help them take down the virus, 10,000,000 RMB was worth it.
nXinghe blinked her eyes.
"He should be thankful that I'm not greedy. I only want 10,000,000 RMB from him.
"
nXia Zhi looked at his sister skeptically.
nSis, are you sure you're not greedy?
nHe couldn't help but feel sorry for Chui Ming.
nYes, Chui Ming was responsible for his physical wounds but if Xia Zhi had known there was 10,000,000 RMB waiting for him after the fact, he believed he would be more than willing to take a beating. All in all, the exchange was heavily tipped in their favor.
nIf Chui Ming knew his actions would end up with him getting such a disadvantageous bargain, one wonders if he would punch himself in regret?
