TISHW 61




Chapter 61 Different

Seeing Zhou Feifei's dazed back, Shu Hua laughed silently.

After confirming that the person left, Shu Hua gave Qin Shiyu a thumbs up, "Brilliant. If she seeks you in the future, she’s annoying. Only by ignoring you can she attract your attention. So what should she do?"

"Just like a person who doesn’t like you, hahaha..."

Qin Shiyu glanced at her, then got up and went upstairs out of boredom.

The deluxe single room was fully equipped. Jiang Yu took a nice bath and washed away the fatigue of the day. She changed into her pajamas and nestled into the wicker chair on the large balcony, feeling the night breeze that carried the fragrance of vegetation and looking at the little lights that scattered in the distance. It would be even nicer to have a small drink.

After thinking about it, Jiang Yu put on her clothes and prepared to go downstairs to get a drink from the refrigerator.

As a result, as soon as she went down a flight of stairs, she heard Ye Yuanyu's voice. He must be on the phone:

"... For a mobile phone protection software, even if you want to customize it, you can find a company to do it. It can be done for at least 108,000 yuan. Why are you looking for me?"

Jiang Yu originally wanted to go back, but she couldn't help but stop when she heard this. Mobile phone protection software, one hundred and eighty thousand?

"...Mom, I'm still busy with the projects at hand. Where can I find the time to do this for you? Besides, I'm studying finance, not IT." Ye Yuanyu's voice was filled with helplessness, "...that hacker is very powerful, but they are obviously targeting those who spread rumors. Once one hack into the account, it’s a crime. If they are so capable, why would they do such dangerous things?”

It was unknown what was said at the other end. Ye Yuanyu responded, "If you want me to do it, it will be only when it’s directly turned into a project." 

Reaching here, he seemed to have an idea, "Anyway, didn't you say those friends of ours are worried? Then I’ll directly make a customized protection, ranging from 10,000 to 100,000 per person according to functional requirements... Okay, that’s fine.”

"Then you pay an advance payment of five hundred thousand..."

As expected of an elite bigshot. He can come up with a project even when he was chatting with his mother.

Jiang Yu thought about the code she had written and didn't bother to get a drink. She returned to the room to send a message to her employer. Although she wasn't sure whether her client was Zhou Feifei, since Ye Yuanyu wanted to make the protection software as a project and the other party, who had to outsource their software writing, would definitely not be able to do it. Jiang Yu decided to get the remuneration first. Of course, she had another consideration...

【Hello, have you received the plan? Have you tried it on a trial basis? Is there anything else you're not satisfied with? 】

Zhou Feifei was feeling irritable. The more she mulled over it after she returned to the room, the more she felt that Qin Shiyu was playing tricks on her. So she turned on the live broadcast to watch the replay. Before she could determine whether Jiang Yu was hiding from Qin Shiyu, she first saw the ridicule she received on the barrage. As she was about to throw away her phone in fury, she saw the part-time job she had hired coming to ask for the bill. She immediately exploded. A liar was truly thick-skinned.

She had already found someone else. It would take at least seven or eight days for a three-person team to speedily write the code. While she found one person to finish it in seven or eight days. Tricking who?

Immediately she replied: 【Don’t treat people as fools, your thing can’t be used at all. 】

After saying that, she threw away the phone and ignored it.

Jiang Yu, who received the message:...

It seemed that Zhou Feifei wasn’t proficient in coding at all. Otherwise, how could she dare to treat her so casually?

Turning on the computer and connecting to the Internet, Jiang Yu typed on the keyboard a few times and soon discovered that her plan had been trial-run and was still open. Zhou Feifei was recording a program, so she probably handed it over to others to do it.

Since she didn't want it, she had no choice but to take it back. Jiang Yu's index fingers were flying. In front of a computer in City B, someone was praising the beautifully written code and his programmers could save them a lot of time when they saw the lines of code in front of him disappeared quickly. He was so frightened that he hurried to find someone.

Jiang Yu made a new copy of the code and sent a message directly to Ye Yuanyu. This was another layer of her consideration. If the other party didn't understand or acted rogue, it would be better to cooperate with Ye Yuanyu, since it would be efficient and safe.

Soon she received a message. The two agreed to meet at the swing in the yard in ten minutes. Jiang Yu went downstairs to get a drink.

Next door, Qin Shiyu received an unexpected call from his psychiatrist.

"Doctor Lu." Qin Shiyu was a little surprised.

The person on the other side grinned, "I guess you are almost done with your work. How are you feeling today?"

Qin Shiyu leaned on the balcony, looked at the few lights in the distance, and drawled out, "Not bad."

"You do sound like you’re doing pretty well." Dr. Lu didn't drag it and asked directly, "I watched your live broadcast today. You seem to be a little different toward the girl named Jiang Yu. Is there any reason?"

It turned out that it was because of this. Qin Shiyu said frankly, "She helped me a lot when I was slandered last time, but didn't take care of herself. So I want to repay her."

"So you are doing this to guide public opinion?" Dr. Lu suddenly said, "I was wondering why no one managed the girl's previous scandals in the past. It turns out that you are managing. If not, she might not be able to escape cyber bullying."

Qin Shiyu didn’t deny it, "After all, I was the one who got her involved."

Dr. Lu grinned, "But I remember that you don't have the guilt-ridden emotion."

Qin Shiyu supported his chin and drawled out, "When living in a crowd, one still has to abide by basic social etiquette. Since I have caused her trouble, I will be responsible for the aftermath. This is what I should do."

Then there are a lot of things you should do. Dr. Lu vaguely noticed something and continued to ask, "But there are many ways to deal with the aftermath. You don't need to do it yourself."

Qin Shiyu said, "En, all things considered. This is the fastest and most effective one."

"Aren't you afraid that she will fall in love with you?" Dr. Lu asked, "That would be more troublesome. And it would be the trouble you hate the most."

Qin Shiyu thought of Jiang Yu's shyness toward him and instantly laughed, "En, don't worry, she can't wait to avoid me."

Dr. Lu was stunned for a moment, "Is that why you feel safe approaching her? What if the other party was trying to play hard to get?" 

After saying that, he smiled, "I almost forgot, you have a minor in psychology and your micro-expression observation is better than mine. It seems she really doesn’t like you.”

Knowing that was the one thing, Qin Shiyu still felt slightly displeased when the other party said it.

Dr. Lu smiled again, "All things considered, it means you haven't wronged yourself. How does it feel to get along with her? Even if she doesn't like you."

Qin Shiyu couldn't help but emphasize, "She doesn't like me the way it is between a man and woman. It's not that she doesn't like me as a person."

"That’s right. I think you two get along like friends." Dr. Lu went along and rephrased, "You guys have a good understanding. Is it because she is similar to you in some aspects. That’s why you feel close to her?"

Qin Shiyu laughed, "She isn’t like me." 

Thinking of her happy expression facing the lake on the roof of the Lakeview Courtyard today, he sighed, "Although she talks little, she loves life and the world. Completely different from me, who lives one day at a time.”

"Then why do you feel relaxed getting along with her? Of course, except for the reason that she doesn't like you." Dr. Lu said with a smile, "After all, the other male guests don't like you either and you don't seem to have the idea of making friends with them.”

Qin Shiyy pondered for a while, "Maybe it's because she is very powerful and can protect herself?"

Dr. Lu was stunned for a moment. It was the first time he heard him say this. Intuition told him it was important, but he couldn't figure it out for the moment. He could only ask, "To make friends with you, one must be strong enough to protect themselves?"

Qin Shiyu said jokingly, "This is a necessity. After all, it's easy to get unlucky if you get close to me."

Something flashed through Dr. Lu's mind, but he still couldn't catch it. He could only continue to analyze, "In fact, aren't you protecting her?"

Qin Shiyu said, "Of course she can protect herself even if I don't take action. It's just social courtesy. I should be responsible for this matter."

Dr. Lu grinned, "I understand. After all, she won't like you, and you won't like her either. You feel that this kind of relationship is right and not burdensome. This is a wonderful matter and is good for your treatment."

Qin Shiyu said briskly, "I think so too."

Dr. Lu couldn't help but want to laugh. He actually learned how to make excuses.

With his pride, why would he go out to find someone who avoids him, unless he was uncontrollably attracted...

Dr. Lu didn't point it out. It was a good sign for Qin Shiyu. A person's clear analysis of themselves meant that he harshly judged himself and at the same time gave up on himself. Anyway, the good and bad can be discarded at any time. That’s why it was dangerous.

After all, human nature had a selfish side. It was human nature to cover up and beautify one's own little thoughts...

In the past, Qin Shiyu was very cooperative with every treatment and did not hesitate to talk about his malice and scars. But this time, without even realizing it, he carefully hid a small place...

Unexpectedly, after going round and round, Qin Shiyu would be treated in what he considered as the most impossible way. It was a pity that the other party didn't like him...

Thinking of this, Doctor Lu couldn't resist laughing. There might really be retribution in this world. He had caused so many people headaches, and now he himself had hit a piece of iron.

Qin Shiyu waited patiently for Dr. Lu to continue speaking, when his eyes suddenly fell on the swing frame in the yard...

Why were they there? What were you talking about?

​Zhou Feifei was really irritated. At the thought that she had sacrificed good resources to make a fool of herself in a variety show as well as completely screwing up with the target she wanted to conquer, she could no longer hold her temper and planned to go upstairs to find out what happened.

She had a feeling that Qin Shiyu was playing ricks on her. 

After leaving the room, she saw Jiang Yu going up to the third floor. After thinking about it, she stepped forward to say hello, "Where have you been?"

Jiang Yu shook the milk in her hand and replied, "Go get a drink and get ready for bed."

"Go get a drink?" A deep voice came from above.

The two of them looked up and saw Qin Shiyu standing at the stairs on the third floor.

Jiang Yu thought he was going to get a drink too, so she nodded and said, "There's everything in the refrigerator." 

She was afraid that Zhou Feifei would use her to do something wrong, so she took two quick steps and passed Qin Shiyu, "Good night."

Zhou Feifei felt cold in her heart when she saw Jiang Yu's avoidance and Qin Shiyu's angrily smile at the other party's back:

He really liked people who didn’t like him...

This was a serious illness. How could she get close to him?
