Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Jian Jin was speechless. She changed her stance. “What if that’s what she thinks? Qiao doesn’t like to lie. Since she told you she wants to be number one in the world, she probably just wants to play.”
The boss of the Red Alliance, Sun, was the number one hacker on the Heaven Leaderboard. Other than Qiao Nian’s own reasons, Jian Jin could not find a reason for her to participate in the World Software Competition.
“That’s because you don’t understand her,” Lu Zhi suddenly interrupted her. His voice was calm, but it was extremely powerful. “She’s not someone who likes to play. She’s lazy. Very few people and things can make her take them to heart.”
Jian Jin thought about the girls she’d known for so many years and agreed. “That’s true.”
They had been kidnapped together back then and sent to train.
!!
They walked out together at the end.
Lu Zhi had lost his leg bone. From then on, he could only sit in a wheelchair and could no longer walk like an ordinary person.
Jian Jin’s dark eyes turned to the man in the wheelchair again with a puzzled expression. “Then, why do you think Qiao wants to participate in this competition?”
Why?
Lu Zhi had been in Beijing for a few days and had checked on Qiao Nian.
It was not easy. Even he could only find out a few words. However, based on his understanding of Qiao Nian, he could confidently tell why she was participating in the competition.
“In the past, very few people and things bothered her. Now it’s different.”
In just a year, Qiao Nian had let go of too many people and things.
Lu Zhi narrowed his eyes. His eyes were like a cold and lonely night. There was a star hidden in the cold and lonely night, making Jian Jin stunned.
The man in the wheelchair said calmly, “She participated in the competition to bring honor to her country.”
“?????”
Jian Jin looked as if she’d seen a ghost. For a moment, she couldn’t digest the information he’d revealed. “You’re joking, right?”
Qiao Nian was participating in the software competition because she wanted to bring glory to her country?
This…
It was too unlike Qiao Nian.
It was not something she could do in the past!
They were a group of undisciplined, disorganized, and faithless people in the illegal district.
“Bring glory to the country” was simply unbelievable to people like them who did not even have a nationality.
She knew that Qiao Nian had a nationality and a household register.
This was because after they escaped back then, they did not choose to return to their families. Only Qiao Nian chose to return to her original family.
It was just that sometimes people could go back, but some things could never be the same.
Later on, the Qiao family courted death.
“Didn’t she say before that she stayed only to return to her roots and find out who her biological parents were?”
Some time ago, she had contacted Qiao Nian to ask if she had found out the reason for Ji Qing’s death.
However, Qiao Nian said that she had not investigated thoroughly.
Jian Jin was also helping to investigate in private. Usually, if she found any clues, she would send Qiao Nian a message. She waved her hand and frowned. “Is she too deeply involved in this lousy matter in Beijing? She’ll easily suffer if she continues like this.”
Lu Zhi’s fair fingers tapped on the armrest of his wheelchair. The armrest was inlaid with round and smooth decorations. It was impossible to tell from the material what it was made from.
His voice was extremely calm, revealing a disdain and arrogance that did not match his appearance. “It doesn’t matter if she wants to play. We’re here, anyway.”
Jian Jin thought about it and agreed.
Anyway, they were still around.
Lu Zhi said, “By the way, help me buy a house in Beijing.
“I don’t like staying in hotels. I’m a clean freak.”
