After some night self-study, the day students went home.

Gu Yin looked down at the alb.u.m in her hand coldly, forcefully folded it, and threw it into the wastebasket.

The Lei family’s car was parked in front of the school.

Gu Yin pulled open the car door and heard Lei Cong’s excited voice.

“Pa, is Sister Gu Mang coming for my birthday on the weekend?”

Gu Yin froze, instinctively pressing her lips together as she lowered her gaze and got into the car.

She put her schoolbag aside and smiled lovably. “Uncle, what brings you to pick us up today?”

Lei Xiao took a peek inside the school before slowly starting the car. “Let Gu Mang know tomorrow that your grandparents will be coming over on the weekend. She better not be absent.”

The two elders of the Lei family were sticklers for propriety especially during their only grandson’s birthday. Everyone in the family had to be present otherwise the two elders would not let the matter rest.

Lei Xiao’s tone of voice was obviously much more pleasant than before.

Hearing that, Gu Yin’s eyes became slightly solemn. She smiled gently and said, “I got it, Uncle.”

Hearing that, Lei Cong was glad. He leaned forward against the driver’s chair. “Pa, do you know how popular Sis is getting at school? There is no one who doesn’t know her.”

Lei Xiao didn’t reply and asked Gu Yin, “Do you know where Gu Si is?”

Gu Yin shook her head. “I don’t know. Sis said that she was taking care of Brother. Could he be at one of the full-time care schools in Ming City?”

Lei Xiao said, “Tell her to bring Gu Si with her. Your grandparents miss Gu Si.”

Gu Yin responded obediently, but her eyes were chilly.

…

In the Year Three Girl’s Dormitory.

Gu Mang came out of the shower, holding a towel in her hand and drying her hair. With a back flip, she landed gracefully on the bed.

The people in the dormitory were used to the big boss’s routine.

She pulled the curtains around her and turned on the computer.

In the Shadow League internal chat room.

Both Yun Ling and Lin Shuang were present. Shadow League was conducting tests on the new firewall.

“Big boss, you’re here,” Lin Shuang greeted her.

Gu Mang put the towel on her head and typed with one hand. “How’s the test?”

Yun Ling replied, “There is still a little problem that we’re working on.”

Gu Mang took a piece of candy from the bedside table, put in her mouth, and said, “Lemme try.”

Yun Ling and Lin Shuang were happy to let her do it. The big boss hadn’t been online very much lately so they didn’t disturb her.

Gu Mang switched to another page. Her slim, fair fingers were so fast it was dazzling. On the black screen rows of green code flew by.

Three minutes later, at the Shadow League base.

All the computers sounded intrusion alarms. The red exclamation marks accompanying the warning messages made one feel despair.

Yun Ling was speechless.

The corner of Lin Shuang’s mouth twitched. “Give us a break! We’ve been working on this firewall for several days!”

Yun Ling calmed down to ease her thoughts of wanting to die. “The big boss can invade the defense system of Country K without leaving a trace. She even extracted the president’s data. What’s the point of letting her test the firewalls?”

They didn’t stop her.

Gu Mang thought for a few seconds, “Alright, next person.”

…

At a certain military area in the countryside.

Gu Si was sitting on the stairs, his legs raised, and his little hand propping up his bun-like face.

He watched uninterestedly at the guys before him sparring with each other.

The clamsh.e.l.l phone in his pocket rang and he took it out.

Seeing that his sister was coming, Gu Si jumped up excitedly. His sister finally remembered that she had a younger brother!

He was excited even though she had only sent him a short text. “Go hack into Shadow League’s system.”

“Alright, Sis, right away.” Gu Si replied to the message, jumped off the steps, and quickly ran back to his room.
