Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Fu Yunze almost fainted on the spot.
“Didn’t you hear that?” Fu Jiuxiao did not intend to let him go. “I heard that your new company is going bankrupt?”
Fu Yunze remembered that his financial lifeline was still in Fu Jiuxiao’s hands, and he immediately became listless.
“I apologize.”
His voice was as soft as a mosquito’s, and his tone of speaking was quite different from Jiang Li’s.
“Hmm?”
It was obvious that Fu Jiuxiao’s voice had run out of patience.
“I’m sorry, aunt,” Fu Yunze said loudly to Jiang Li, resigned to his fate.
1
With just one sentence from Fu Jiuxiao, Jiang Li and Fu Yunze were clearly separated.
Thinking that this person who had tortured her in her previous life would not harm her anymore, Jiang Li could not help but smile.
1
“Nephew, be good. Of course, your aunt won’t blame you. However, remember, don’t make a ruckus in public in the future. You’ll lose the Fu family’s reputation, understand?”

Fu Yunze’s face turned gloomy as he glared fiercely at Jiang Li. “Yes, thank you, aunt.”
He squeezed out the last two words from between his teeth.
Jiang Li nodded and pulled Jiang Man back.
“This is your Auntie Man. She is going to marry into the Xu family, and she will be your elder in the future. You have to respect her more. Don’t mess up your status, okay?”

Jiang Man’s eyes looked as if they were spitting fire, and she almost could not help but scream. This time, Mother Jiang reacted a little faster. She went up and covered Jiang Man’s mouth directly.
“She’s are not married yet, so why are you not keeping your promise? Why should he call her a different title?”
“The title is set,” Fu Jiuxiao said coldly.
1
It was like a godly assist. Jiang Man, who had just calmed down, started to show her fangs and claws again, but Mother Jiang dragged her down.
Old Master Fu was very happy when he heard that. “In-laws, it seems like your family is going to have double happiness.”

Father Jiang grinned again. “Yes, yes. I am indebted to Old Master Fu for your concern about my daughter’s marriage.”
This time, even Mother Jiang’s eyes were burning with rage, almost shooting two holes in his back.
Of course, Father Jiang did not realize it. Thinking that Fu Jiuxiao, who was famous in Sea City, was going to be his son-in-law. He also wanted to go up and get in touch with him.
“Jiuxiao, I just heard from the old man that the 18th of next month is a good day…”
Fu Jiuxiao’s face was indifferent.
“That’s right.”
Without waiting for him to finish, he turned to the old man again. “Dad, I’ll leave this matter to you. I still have something to deal with.”
No one dared to stop Fu Jiuxiao when he spoke. They all stepped asides, watching him leave slowly under the escort of two bodyguards.
Father Jiang stood there in embarrassment. This son-in-law was not giving respecting him at all.
“Little Li, don’t worry. I will definitely take care of this engagement. When that time comes, everyone in Sea City will know that you are the Young Madam that our Fu family is going to marry.”
“Yes, thank you, Uncle Fu.”Jiang Li also generously changed the way she called him. Hearing that made Old Master Fu beam with joy, so he said a few more words to Jiang Li.
He did not pay much attention to the Jiang family during the whole process.
It was obvious that Old Master Fu did not take his in-laws seriously either.
The smile on Father Jiang’s face could not be maintained any longer.
When the Jiang family returned home, Jiang Man could not bear it any longer.
First, she smashed the antique furniture in the living room into pieces. Father Jiang’s face twitched with heartache. Mother Jiang started to blame Father Jiang for being useless again. Then, the three of them got into a mess.
Jiang Li could not be bothered with them. She had more important things to do.
The man who violated her tonight… Heh.

She took out her computer and connected to the hotel’s surveillance system without any cost, wanting to retrieve the surveillance footage from that time.
However, at the most critical moment, she discovered that her IP permissions were restricted. No matter how many times she tried, she was restricted outside the firewall.
She tried the Trojan virus again, wanting to confuse the system’s firewall. However, as long as she made a change, the firewall’s defense system would follow her and generate a new anti-virus program.

After a series of struggles, Jiang Li realized that she had encountered a hacker who was on par with her.
Who was it?
1
It was just an ordinary hotel surveillance system. It was impossible for it to attract such a powerful hacker to covet and guard it.
It was obviously aimed at her.
