So Pure, So Flirtatious

Chapter 1233 - Intricate Relationship



Chapter 1233: Intricate Relationship





“Of course.” Chen Mengyan showed a mysterious smile. “Your department director is called Xiao Qing, right!?”


“Yeah. How do you know?” Zhou Jiajia continued to ask.


“Because she is Yang Ming’s godsister!” Chen Mengyan grinned. “It must be that she knows of your relationship with Yang Ming, so she made an exception for you, hehe …”


Zhou Jiajia had heard the name of Xiao Qing, and she guessed that she was Yang Ming’s godsister. When she heard Chen Mengyan mentioning it at this moment, her face suddenly blushed. It seems that Chen Mengyan is right. I was admitted to the research. Perhaps it is because of my good grades, but if Xiao Qing didn’t know that I was Yang Ming’s girlfriend, she would not pay attention if she were busy. She wouldn’t even investigate my files.


“Sister Mengyan, stop the nonsense… Yang Ming won’t simply speak of our relationship. In the eyes of outsiders, he only has you as a girlfriend.” Zhou Jiajia lowered her head and said, embarrassed.


“Sister Xiao Qing is not an outsider…” Chen Mengyan smiled and said, “She knows about Lan Ling’s matter too…” Although she said with a smile, Chen Mengyan was still a bit sad as she spoke about this. It was not that Chen Mengyan was being mean, but she was rather annoyed that Yang Ming actually looked for other girls when they quarreled with each other.


Chen Mengyan spoke of Lan Ling’s matter to Zhou Jiajia and Lin Zhiyun before. They knew such a person existed. She couldn’t help but be a little surprised after learning from Chen Mengyan that Xiao Qing knew many things about Yang Ming.


She was just a godsister, and not a real sister, but she knew so many things. It seemed that Yang Ming and her relationship should be very good. But even then, they didn’t think much of it. After all, Xiao Qing’s identity as the computer science department director was public. In their view, she couldn’t have any abnormal relationship with Yang Ming.


“Then… after I meet her, wouldn’t it be embarrassing?” Zhou Jiajia was a bit timid.


“Not really. Just do what you should do. Do you want me to go with you?” Chen Mengyan saw Zhou Jiajia’s cautious look, so she asked.


“Of course, that is great, but… is this really good?” Zhou Jiajia thought about it and felt that it was inappropriate to let Chen Mengyan accompany her. If Xiao Qing saw that, what would she think? What if I was not recruited because I’m the girlfriend of her godbrother? Wouldn’t that mess up the matter?


Hehe , I think… you should go alone. I just made a joke to cheer for you!” Chen Mengyan also felt that it was inappropriate for her to accompany Zhou Jiajia. This way, it seemed to be deliberately advertising something.


“Then, I will go on my own.” Zhou Jiajia pursed her lips. “I don’t think it’s appropriate either.”


In front of the computer science faculty building, Zhou Jiajia separated from Chen Mengyan and Lin Zhiyun and ran upstairs. Now it was lunch break; the graduate students who gathered here to sign up had all gone for their lunch break.


Just after entering the teacher faculty building, Zhou Jiajia’s mobile phone rang again. Zhou Jiajia quickly walked out of the teacher faculty building.


The current teacher faculty building was very empty. The mobile phone’s ringtone was exceptionally loud, and it was extraordinarily clear in the quiet building, so Zhou Jiajia could only walk out when she answered the phone.


“Hello?” Zhou Jiajia picked up the phone.


“Is this Zhou Jiajia? This is Li Boliang!” Li Boliang’s voice came from the phone.


Oh ? It’s Senior Li, hi.” Zhou Jiajia said politely. Zhou Jiajia also understood Li Boliang’s intention. She shouldn’t give too many hints to people like him. She needed to keep a distance, so he wouldn’t have any misunderstanding.


“Jiajia… Can I call you Jiajia? Haha , do you know? The department has approved your registration for the wireless protocol research!” Li Boliang said excitedly, “You know, I spent a lot of effort to convince Deputy Director Sun, and he also agreed. You can report to the department in the teacher faculty building. You don’t even have to do the interview; you have been admitted directly.”


“You… please call me Zhou Jiajia. Only my family calls me Jiajia. I’m not used to others calling me that.” Zhou Jiajia rejected softly. “I can participate in the study? Thank you, Senior Li. However, Director Xiao has already called me personally and told me to report to the department. I have already arrived at the teacher faculty building.”


Ah ? Director Xiao called you?” Li Boliang also refused to entangle with addressing the title of Zhou Jiajia at this time. When Li Boliang heard that Xiao Qing called Zhou Jiajia directly, his heart was shocked! Isn’t my shameless lie debunked immediately? Li Boliang suddenly blushed as he thought of this. “Then, hehe , it seems that Director Xiao still paid attention to you! Right, Deputy Director Sun also said that your grades in the last semester are good; this is an important reason for admission. Of course, my lobbying and recommendation are only one aspect; the most important thing is because of your own achievements and abilities!”


Zhou Jiajia smiled faintly. Zhou Jiajia was not angry with Li Boliang’s lame lies, because Li Boliang was completely an outsider. Zhou Jiajia just simply listened to what he said. What did it have to do with Zhou Jiajia even if he lied?


En , thank you very much, Senior Li, but I am going to enter Director Xiao’s office soon. Let’s talk again next time,” said Zhou Jiajia.


“That’s good… then let’s talk next time…” Li Boliang hung up and suddenly was a little frustrated. He felt that he was one step behind. How can I let Director Xiao call Zhou Jiajia first? If I made a call before her phone call, wouldn’t my words make a stronger impression? Now Director Xiao has made a stronger impression, then all my credit is lost.


This scene of the hero rescuing the beauty was unsuccessful this time. Li Boliang was extremely depressed. It seemed that he could only find the next opportunity.


“Brother Li, what’s wrong with you?” A cool-looking man beside him patted Li Boliang’s shoulder and asked, “How come you are low-spirited? Why do you seem to have suffered a setback?”


“Jiang Naigang!” Li Boliang looked up and saw the man beside him. “Nothing, hehe .”


“Brother Li, aren’t you obviously not taking me as your brother? Your business is my business!” Jiang Naigang admired Li Boliang. This was because of the company run by his father. There was a critical encrypted account. The accountant added encryption, but this accountant had a car accident and stayed in the hospital. The doctor said that it would take half a year for him to wake up.


Jiang Naigang’s father, Jiang Fugui, was in urgency because of this. There were a lot of arrears owed by the clients in the accounts. If he couldn’t open it, the company would be finished! Even if it could be opened after half a year, there would be no more funds for half a year. This would bring immeasurable losses to the company.


Jiang Naigang knew that his brother of the same dormitory, Li Boliang, was a computer expert and the president of the Computer Science Club. Therefore, Jiang Naigang took the initiative to recommend Li Boliang to his father, Jiang Fugui.


Jiang Fugui was a computer idiot. In fact, this kind of password cracking wasn’t a complicated thing to do. As long as he went to a professional computer data recovery center, he could solve it. It was just that Jiang Fugui imagined the computer as being too mysterious, so he didn’t even think about consulting Computer City’s people.


Listening to his son, the brother in his dormitory was the Computer Science Club president. This title was quite big. Jiang Fugui took Li Boliang to the company as a last resort in an attempt to save a desperate situation.


Li Boliang looked at the encrypted account file; it was a RAR formatted file. The password for this type of compressed file could only be cracked by brute force, and there was no other back door to use.


Fortunately, the accounting password was only an eight-digit birthday password. Li Boliang used the cracking software successfully to crack the file in just a few hours.


Jiang Fugui didn’t understand the length of the encryption password. He only knew that Li Boliang had solved his problem, so he was respectful to Li Boliang! He also told his son, Jiang Naigang, to learn more from Li Boliang.


Although Jiang Naigang also played on computers, he couldn’t understand decryption, so he also admired Li Boliang. Li Boliang was also often invited to his home as a guest.


So when Jiang Naigang noticed that Li Boliang seemed to have encountered trouble, he naturally wanted to step up for him.


Seeing Jiang Naigang’s questioning, Li Boliang did not continue to conceal. He felt that it would be fine to talk to others about his own worries. So, he said, ” Ai , you know your brother. I used to devote myself to the computer and neglect my important lifelong matter…”


“Brother Li, is it that you want to get a woman? This is simple. I will find you a few tomorrow, as many as you want!” When Jiang Naigang heard Li Boliang’s words, he thought Li Boliang had physiological needs. Therefore, he was thinking about looking for a few ‘clean’ prostitutes for him. If it really didn’t work, he could spend some money to look for a C-list celebrity. His family didn’t lack money anyway. Li Boliang also helped his family once, so his father could understand if he told his father.


“Naigang, you misunderstood!” When Li Boliang listened to Jiang Naigang’s words, he was dumbfounded suddenly. “Do you think I am that kind of person? Even if I have a physiological need, I will solve it using the computer. Why would I look for prostitutes?”


Oh , then I understand. Brother Li, you want to find a girlfriend, right?” Jiang Naigang understood Li Boliang’s meaning, so he patted his chest and assured. “Do not worry. Leave this to me!”


“Naigang, you still don’t understand. I like a girl who is a freshman in our school, but she doesn’t seem to be interested in me…” Li Boliang sighed.


“Brother Li, you are a talented person. Why isn’t she interested in you?” Jiang Naigang said, “However, you can rest assured that the girls now worship money. I will help you to change your look and lend my sports car to you. I will ensure that you can get the girl!”


“Really?” Li Boliang was suddenly delighted. Li Boliang was clear that the girls worshiped money now. Zhou Jiajia should be the same, right? In the recent matchmaking shows, Li Boliang also saw that the girls all worshipped money.


“Why would I lie to you?” Jiang Naigang said, “At that time, you take her out; I will bring you two to a few gatherings of the upper level in the society. When she sees your strength, wouldn’t she fall in love with you?”


Li Boliang was overjoyed and quickly thanked him. “Then I’ll leave this to you!”


……


Zhou Jiajia quickly went to the department head office on the third floor and knocked on the door. Xiao Qing’s voice came from inside the door. “Please come in!”


Zhou Jiajia opened the door and entered Xiao Qing’s office. She said politely, “Director Xiao, hi. I am Zhou Jiajia. I am here to report to you.”


Xiao Qing just had a meal, and she was taking a lunch break. Because of continuous fatigue, Xiao Qing took a nap in the office for a while. She didn’t expect Zhou Jiajia to come so fast. She had just called her, but Zhou Jiajia came so soon. It seemed that Zhou Jiajia was really very interested in the research of this wireless protocol; she really wanted to participate.


Xiao Qing was a little surprised that Yang Ming had such a girlfriend instead. Zhou Jiajia had a lot of knowledge about computers, but Yang Ming had never mentioned it to Xiao Qing.


“Zhou Jiajia, you are here. Please sit down.” Xiao Qing pointed to the sofa on the side.


“Director Xiao, did I bother your rest…?” When Zhou Jiajia noticed that she woke Xiao Qing up from her rest, Zhou Jiajia felt a little sorry.


“It’s nothing. I’m just a little tired these days, so I just napped for a while.” Xiao Qing smiled, “Zhou Jiajia… En , I will call you Jiajia, okay?”


“Okay.” Zhou Jiajia nodded happily. Although she had just finished telling Li Boliang that she wasn’t used to being called as Jiajia by people other than her family, Zhou Jiajia had already regarded Xiao Qing as family. Yang Ming’s godsister was Zhou Jiajia’s godsister, so they were naturally a family.


En , Jiajia, I saw your last semester’s results; you are really good, especially the disk copy program. Not only you can perform a normal disk copy, but you can also copy encrypted tracks that use a lot of edge computing. Many of our university professors aren’t as good as you in these things.” Xiao Qing praised sincerely. Although Xiao Qing studied a bit of encryption and decryption when she went to school, she did not do further study on it.


After all, Xiao Qing was now studying some formal technologies. In terms of encryption and decryption, she wasn’t an opponent of Zhou Jiajia. But in academics, she was much stronger than Zhou Jiajia.


Hehe , these are just some non-academic things.” Zhou Jiajia smiled awkwardly. “However, what I am good at is also hacking technology; I have never participated in such things as making network protocols. When I heard that our school actually leads the research of the domestic wireless protocol standards, I was thrilled, so I signed up for it. However, I heard that only graduate students were recruited. I thought there was no hope, but I didn’t expect Director Xiao to accept me.”


“Actually, I heard Yang Ming talking about you.” Xiao Qing suddenly changed her previous serious attitude and winked at Zhou Jiajia. “But Yang Ming did not mention that you were interested in computer things. Otherwise, I will let you participate if there are these research projects.”


Ah … Director Xiao, you already know…” Zhou Jiajia’s face blushed. When Zhou Jiajia listened to Xiao Qing’s words, she thought that Xiao Qing really made an exception to accept her because of her good grades and good skills. It turned out that it was because of her relationship with Yang Ming.


“You should also call me Sister Xiao Qing.” Xiao Qing smiled and said, “You almost sacrificed yourself to save Yang Ming. How can I not know? I really thank you for that…”


“That’s what I should do… and, of course, I was just adding more trouble… With Yang Ming’s skill, he should have been able to dodge that shot. I made an unnecessary move and brought so much burden to Yang Ming…” Zhou Jiajia sighed emotionally.


These words were indeed her true words. It was just that she did not talk about this to anyone, including Chen Mengyan and Lin Zhiyun. Now Xiao Qing was like a loving neighbor’s elder sister in front of her, so Zhou Jiajia couldn’t help but reveal her own thoughts.


Zhou Jiajia later learned about Yang Ming’s skills. Therefore, after Zhou Jiajia thought about the situation at the time, she really thought she didn’t have to take the bullet for Yang Ming. However, she couldn’t ask Yang Ming about these things; Yang Ming wouldn’t admit it. She couldn’t speak to Chen Mengyan either. Zhou Jiajia was afraid that after she said it, Chen Mengyan would think that Yang Ming shouldn’t be with Zhou Jiajia, so she didn’t dare.


“You can’t say that.” Xiao Qing waved her hand. “Yang Ming’s skill is good. This is a fact. However, there is always an accident in everything. Maybe if you didn’t take the bullet for him, he would be shot. Your intention is also very valuable.”


“Thank you, Sister Xiao Qing.” Zhou Jiajia smiled happily. “I feel better in my heart now.”


“Well, don’t think so much.” Xiao Qing said, “In the future, it will be very tiring when you join the research team. You may not be able to go home at night… You are living with Yang Ming, right?”


Ah …” Zhou Jiajia blushed, being pointed out by Xiao Qing, but she still nodded. “I live with Mengyan… Yang Ming will come back sometimes…”


Hehe , I guessed it.” Xiao Qing smiled. “You may have to live at school in the future. It should be no problem, right?”


“This is okay; I can just stay in the dormitory.” Zhou Jiajia nodded.


“Not dormitory; it’s living in the laboratory.” Xiao Qing said, “Research and development may happen all day and all night. The days and nights may be reversed too. In a word, just rest when you are tired and work when you aren’t tired…”


Ah ! Wouldn’t I be living with a lot of boys?” Zhou Jiajia was surprised and asked quickly.


“To be honest, these research group members are all boys except for me…” Xiao Qing smiled. “But you can live with me. I have a separate resting room.”


“That’s good.” Zhou Jiajia breathed a sigh of relief and nodded. She naturally agreed with staying with Xiao Qing. She was Yang Ming’s godsister, so Zhou Jiajia also wanted to have a good relationship with her.
