Chapter 366: Mobilizing the Power Behind the Scenes
"Since it's going to be on the hot search again, should I pay them back the money they paid? I'll arrange it now."
After hearing what Manman said, Cheng Yunchuan immediately stopped her, "Wait, don't go yet. I've bought all the hot searches. Let's stay together and don't separate. It will be hard to figure out what to do later."
After hearing this, Manman had no choice but to give up, "Okay, then I'll trouble you, Teacher Cheng."
After seeing Cheng Yunchuan take action, Wu You and Manman were no longer worried about this matter.
After the two of them left the living room, Jiang Mubai spoke again: "Did you ask Uncle Cheng to help me? Will he think this is not a good idea after he finds out?"
"No, there's no need to ask uncle for help with these little things. I can handle them by myself."
"Really? You're not lying to me again?"
"Who would use such a thing to deceive people? My grandparents have a lot of capital. After they died, they left it to me and my uncle. My share is usually given to my uncle to manage, so I still have some connections."
Jiang Mubai was shocked when he heard this. "Then I have found a treasure, right? Teacher Cheng is very good at hiding things. If this incident hadn't happened, I might not even know your background."
Cheng Yunchuan defended himself, "I didn't hide it from you on purpose. I will find a chance to tell you later. But this time I can't hide it anymore and I need to take action, so I let you know in advance."
"Luckily you knew what was best for you."
"We agreed to be honest. Do you have something to tell me?"
Jiang Mubai naturally knew what Cheng Yunchuan was asking, but she didn't expect that Cheng Yunchuan would be so sensitive to what happened yesterday.
"Well, I do have some talent as a hacker. The recording that was played on the computer yesterday was played by me after I hacked into Weibo. So how come you have so many thoughts? How can you notice these little things?"
"I'm not as conceited as Wu Youxin. She's the only one who's so easy to fool. She'll believe whatever you say."
The news that Jiang Mubai was a hacker was exposed in front of Cheng Yunchuan, and Cheng Yunchuan took the opportunity to confess to Jiang Mubai that he was also a hacker.
Jiang Mubai suddenly realized what was going on. "No wonder I felt familiar with you when I was doing a mission in the hacker organization before. It turns out that you are the hacker codenamed 'K'."
"I'm sorry for keeping it from you for so long."
"What's the big deal? I just told you now, and doesn't our organization have a rule that you can't reveal your identity to others at will? So we're even now."
"Okay, we are really destined to be together. On the surface, we both work in the same circle, and privately we are both members of hacker organizations. We are also members of the same team in the game. Don't you think this means that we are destined to be together?"
“Indeed, there are so many connections here.”
After the two of them finished expressing their feelings, Manman and Wu You came back with breakfast.
As soon as Wu You sat down, he couldn't help but flatter Cheng Xiangdi, "Uncle Cheng's arrangements are so thoughtful. Not only has our room been cleaned in advance, but the refrigerator is also filled with all kinds of food, including fruits, seafood, vegetables and so on!"
Manman agreed after hearing this, "The service is really thoughtful. If I had a boyfriend like him, I would wake up laughing in my dreams."
"Come on, Uncle Cheng isn't here right now, and he can't hear you praising him so much. If you have the guts, wait until he arrives and praise him in person."
"We have no ability. We only boasted because he was not around. I would be too embarrassed to say it in front of him."
"Alright, alright, I've never seen people as cowardly as you. Come eat quickly. Uncle Cheng will be here to join us soon."
When the four of them put down their chopsticks, the doorbell was rang by Cheng Xiangdi who was standing outside. Although this was his house, there were people living inside, and Cheng Xiangdi was too embarrassed to just use the key to open the door and come in.
After hearing this, Cheng Yunchuan immediately stood up and went to open the door for Cheng Xiangdi. Manman and Wu You quickly took the empty tableware on the dining table to the kitchen.
Jiang Mubai also planned to take out the gift for Cheng Xiangdi. As soon as she put the things on the ground and turned around, she saw Cheng Xiangdi coming in behind Cheng Yunchuan.
"Hello Uncle Cheng, we meet again."
"Good morning! I haven't seen you for a while and I think you've become more beautiful."
In the kitchen, Manman and Wu You heard the sound and immediately ran out to greet Cheng Xiangdi.
"Hello Uncle Cheng, we are sorry to trouble you with our presence this time."
"It's not a bother. You are all Mu Bai's friends. As an elder, it is my duty to take care of you. Just have fun here during this time. Don't feel embarrassed to come to me if you have any problems."
Seeing the sincerity in the words, Wu You and Man Man were not as reserved as before.
After they greeted each other, Cheng Xiangdi sat down on the sofa this time, and Jiang Mubai took the opportunity to give out the gift he had prepared.
"Why have you prepared so much again? Our family is not allowed to be so polite again."
"We saw these when we were shopping. I thought they were interesting so I bought them. These are local specialties. I thought your uncle might not have been there, so I thought of bringing some back for you to try."
Cheng Yunchuan exposed Jiang Mubai from the side, "It's not something you just bought while shopping. The three of them went out for a day to pick out a gift for you."
Jiang Mubai was afraid that Cheng Xiangdi would feel burdened after hearing this, so she quickly reached out and patted Cheng Yunchuan to signal him not to mess up the place.
Wu You and Manman washed the fruits and brought them out. When they saw Jiang Mubai take out the things, they also took out the gifts they had prepared for Cheng Xiangdi.
Cheng Xiangdi took the gift and thanked them one by one, "You are so thoughtful. You guys make me, as an elder, feel embarrassed. I will treat you all to a big dinner tonight as a way of thanking you for thinking so highly of me."
Manman and Wu You quickly refused after hearing this. "It's only natural for us to bring gifts. Uncle Cheng, you don't have to be so polite to us. It's already very good that you have arranged accommodation and food for us. How dare we let you spend money?"
"I'm the elder, so just follow my instructions."
It's good to be polite, but if you go too far, people will think that you are deliberately drawing a line between you and him and looking down on him, so when Manman and Wu You were waiting for Jiang Mubai's instructions, Jiang Mubai nodded and they agreed to Cheng Xiangdi's arrangements for the evening.
Jiang Mubai and the other three girls were packing up to go out, while Cheng Xiangdi and Cheng Yunchuan were talking on the sofa.
"I heard on the way here that you were going to mobilize your grandfather's resources? To deal with what happened on Weibo last night?"
"Well, the trending search was removed by someone else this morning. I couldn't stand others doing this to me, so I used the connections that my grandfather left for me."
"Then I understand. I will feel uneasy if I don't ask you in person. If you have any problems that you can't solve, remember to come to me. Your uncle is much more capable than you think."
