Chapter 9: Definitely Money Problems

What was the first thing a mob should do if he discovered some scheme behind him and his whole family?

Throughout the dinner, Jiang Li acted the same, as though he had not discovered someone recording the conversation over the table. When he left, he also didn't immediately tell anybody about his suspicion about the bespectacled man.

All he did before he went back from the washroom was blackmail his system for a welcoming pack, demanding a bug and a tracker be put inside his Second Uncle and the suspicious man's phone. After that, he leisurely strode back and rejoined the people eating there, from time to time, pissing his Second Uncle off.

The man was just too likable to taunt, considering that his act of hiding his annoyance towards Jiang Li was so funny and faked. Jiang Li couldn't help but wonder if this man also had a plot armor because the people around them easily believed in his excuses.

He once asked, "Second Uncle, you are the company's Finance Manager, right? I seem to hear you approving Mr. Lu's proposal to allocate some budget to the project of a money-laundering organization."

"...Xiao Li, where did you hear that? What money-laundering what?" The look of confusion on his uncle's face was just too brilliant. However, the young man noticed the sharp glint from the other's eyes. Jiang Li was guessing he grazed something but it was not necessarily really money-laundering.

'Ooh. Definitely money problems. As always. Let me guess. An underling transferring money to a fake project, its budget ending up as a bribe to whoever, if not to feed for their own pockets. Geez, so many people did that to my real father's company.'

Jiang Li swallowed a piece of steak and then half-heartedly replied, "Just kidding. I heard it from a utility staff. Of course, it's a lie. What credibility will a janitor have when it comes to the company's finances? Look at your face, uncle. It's so funny!"

"This kid!"

Time passed, and dinner finally ended.

Jiang Li's father, Jiang Liuxian, gave his brother an apologetic smile as he knew his son had been weird and playful today, then after that, his family bade their farewell and left for their own home.

The next day.

Like Father Jiang told his Second Uncle, he really had some Saturday classes, and thus, before the sun reached 45 degrees high up in the sky, he was already at the university.

The moment he stepped foot into the entrance, he immediately heard hearsay and gossip about the famous rich beauty of their campus, Zhu Li, clashing against the gothic weirdo, Xie Na.

He heard his name mentioned as someone those two girls were fighting over with. In short, in people's minds, yesterday's misfortunate events resulted from a catfight over a flower boy.

'Oh? Great. I'm witnessing personally the potential of humanity's ever-so-sacrificial weapon—imagination. What impressive creativity!' he sneered on his way to the locker room.

'Just because two girls and one guy are involved, a minor fight became a huge gossip in people's ears. Just who the heck made it seem like a love triangle story? So cheap and tasteless. Why don't they make it into an adultery story if they're so capable?'

Jiang Li spent the rest of the days inside the university.

But instead of listening to the lectures, he brought his laptop to the business department's faculty room and bothered a low-key teacher there whose table was the most secluded to teach him a very important skill that could give him the potential to make or break people's lives.

"Hey, lad. Are you sure you want to dabble in this? Why do you even want to learn this? Are you planning to hack into the girls' computers or phones here for some nice X-rated materials? That's bad! And immoral! Boy, I have been teaching you for four years but didn't know you were this corrupt!"

Jiang Li snorted, still typing and practicing with his laptop. He threw a dirty look at the unkempt man before him.

His name was Hao Gang, and he was a lecturer for the ICT course, which stands for Information and Computer Technology. Given his pervert-looking smile, who would have thought that this stupid-looking lecturer was actually a top-notch hacker?

Girls hated him, so it was a wonder how Xie Na, from the previous life, discovered and used him.

When he approached him earlier, he didn't tell this professor about this and only bluntly requested to learn to hack. The man agreed outright, looking like he didn't mind sharing his crime skills with his students. For that while, Jiang Li didn't know whether to be relieved or dumbfounded.

While copying the program the bastard told him to copy, Jiang Li replied to the man's accusing remarks, "Sir, sometimes I simply want to question your IQ."

"Oh? Is it because I'm so smart that I guessed your roguish ambitions? It's natural, for your information. IQ is needed for hacking. But for real, do you really want to learn this just to get *cough* that kind of material?"

The foolish-looking man then began to chastise him before recommending some sites that no children should ever try to explore.

Jiang Li looked at him disdainfully. "You know I major in Business Administration. What more reason do I need to learn useful skills? And why would I waste time hacking to get those kinds of pictures?"

Hidden meaning: Girls will volunteer to give themselves to me. Why bother? I'll learn to hack to disrupt others' businesses. Duh, obvious.

Of course, while he was thinking of these, he had no intention of entertaining the first thought and was even very scornful of all women.

Given what he went through in his past life, it was just too hard to trust the opposite sex. In fact, he was already irritated that he would have to save stupid villainous women.

Hao Gang made a sour expression. Sneering, the man only threw Jiang Li some materials and then let him do self-study. The man was really too lackadaisical and carefree for a criminal found in hiding within a famous university.

Jiang Li's face turned dark. If only the system was more useful and could give information and do works for him, he wouldn't have to approach this peculiar and dirty-minded professor.
