142 The Ordinary Side

When she left the animation studio, it was already past eight o'clock in the evening. Zhong Yue sent Chu Yun downstairs and waited for her to go upstairs before leaving.

On the way back, Zhong Yue was thinking about Qihu's affairs. The education he received from childhood to adulthood made it difficult for him to really do whatever he wanted. In some things, he has his own persistence and stubbornness, perhaps, a moral obsession.

In business, he hopes to compete fairly with others. As long as others don’t make any moves behind their backs, even if they are at a disadvantage, he will not use shameful means to attack the other party. This is the fairness he insists on.

However, if the other party is unkind, he will not be foolishly and passively beaten, he will use all his methods to fight back.

This is the standard for his behavior and affairs that he has formed over the past 20 years. I will not take the initiative to take advantage of you, but you don’t want to let me suffer any losses.

In business, Qihu's behavior of smearing competitors is actually normal. Security software is the core interests of Qihu. When encountering threats, it will definitely be a crazy counterattack, and no matter what means it is used, it is not uncommon.

But in Zhong Yue's opinion, this has crossed the line. From this perspective, he is somewhat idealistic.

In any case, when he decided to fight back, he naturally had to hit Qihu's weakness. Through the "Growth System", he found the loopholes in Qihu's mobile phone security software. After that, he did not take it himself, but posted it to various hacker forums.

Then, naturally, there were hackers eager to become famous to attack Qihu. In fact, Qihu has suffered many attacks over the past month, but the losses were not large and they were not exposed.

Until last week, he discovered a fatal vulnerability in the Qihu software. After the vulnerability was announced on the forum, Qihu suffered a huge blow.

But he knew very well that such a blow would not be fatal. Companies of the level of Qihu could not be beaten to death with one stick. Even if they decline, they would slowly go downhill, and there would be a process that was not short.

…………

After returning home, he looked at the empty house and felt a little uncomfortable. After his parents returned to their hometown, they handled the matter of the old house. They bought a house in a newly built community and are now being renovated. Most of them will live in their hometown in the future.

Unexpectedly, he thought of Xiuxiu. Her mother was too strict with her, like she was guarding against thieves. Even for Xiuxiu, he didn't want to have a quarrel with her mother. Therefore, they rarely met recently.

He was hungry and walked to the refrigerator, grabbed the door of the refrigerator, suddenly became a little excited, let go of his hand, walked to the sofa and sat down, turned on the TV, and lay there, without any movement.

Everyone has special time to be lonely.

He watched TV. All he thought about was Xiuxiu and the others. He sat up suddenly, picked up his cell phone, wanted to call Xiuxiu, but stopped again. Even if he called, she would not be able to come up to accompany him.

Ruoying was sent by the company for training and would not come back next week. Huilan lives in the school dormitory tonight.

Finally, his fingers stopped on the name of "Chu Yun", hesitated for a moment, and pressed them down.

The phone call is on.

"Come here right now. I have something to ask you for it. I'll send the address to you later."

…………

Chu Yun didn't eat much when she was in the animation studio. When she got home, she took a shower, then went to the kitchen to cook noodles. Halfway, the phone rang, and she picked it up and saw that it was the boss who called it.

She immediately turned off the fire and picked it up. When she heard the boss's words, she said in surprise, "Now?"

"It's now." After the boss finished speaking, he hung up the phone.

She was holding her cell phone and was a little stunned. Soon, she received a text message with an address on it.

She looked at the noodles that were about to be cooked in the pot and sighed with some grief. At this time, she suddenly felt a little regretful that she agreed to be a personal assistant, and there was one in the contract, which was on standby for twenty-four hours. Of course, when she thought of doubled her salary, she felt balanced.

She returned to the room and changed into a set of clothes and hurried out.

"It's so late, where are you going?" Du Wenwen, who was doing yoga in the room, asked loudly when she saw that she was about to go out.

Chu Yun said as she walked, "Go out and come back soon."

After going downstairs, she stopped a taxi. Fortunately, the address was not far away and arrived in about ten minutes. After going upstairs, she found the door number at the address and rang the doorbell.

"Come in." The door opened, and Zhong Yue didn't say much and let her go in.

It is October and the weather is still very hot. As soon as she entered the door, she felt a cool and comfortable feeling, which was a little different from the ordinary air conditioner. This was her first time to come to Zhong Yue’s house and looked around curiously.

When she was downstairs just now, she felt a little strange. This building doesn't look very luxurious, and the boss actually lives in such a place. Even if a rich man like him doesn't live in a villa, he is at least a luxurious apartment.

However, after entering the house, it feels very comfortable and the decoration style is simple and fashionable. It seems that it is not very strange to think of his experience of starting from scratch.

When he arrived at the living room, Zhong Yue pointed to a ceiling light that was not lit on the ceiling and asked her, "Will you change the light bulb?"

Chu Yun, who was looking around, was stunned for a moment, looking at his serious expression, and didn't look like he was joking at all. He asked with some difficulty, "You hurriedly call me here, just ask me to change the light bulb?"

"I'll get you a ladder." Zhong Yue didn't seem to see her dissatisfaction, so he turned around and took out an aluminum herringbone ladder. He put it under the lamp.

At this moment, Chu Yun felt like there were tens of thousands of alpacas rushing past her heart. If it weren't for her boss standing in front of her, she would have really smashed the bag in her hand. She wouldn't have time to eat the noodles she had to cook soon, so she rushed over as soon as possible, and she turned out to change a light bulb?

She suppressed her anger and tried to ask in a calm tone, "You won't change the light bulb?"

Zhong Yue said expressionlessly, "I'm afraid of heights."

Chu Yun looked up at the ceiling, which was only three meters five meters high, and was speechless. Finally, she sighed, put her handbag on the coffee table, walked up the herringbone ladder, looked at the light, and asked, "How to change it?"

"There are two thorns next to it. You can unscrew the shell..."

Under Zhong Yue's guidance, the light bulb was replaced smoothly.

"If nothing is wrong..." Chu Yun picked up her handbag and was about to say goodbye.

Zhong Yue said, "Have you eaten? I bought hairy crabs today."

Just as Chu Yun was about to say that she had eaten it, she heard the three words "hairy crab" and her eyes lit up. She struggled for a while, but she still couldn't resist the temptation of the hairy crab. She changed her words and said, "Not yet."

She is not a foodie, but she likes to eat hairy crabs. Every year when hairy crabs are on the market, she will tighten her belt and buy a few pounds to enjoy it.

"Then let's eat together, I can't finish it alone." Zhong Yue walked into the kitchen, took out a box containing crabs and opened it, and took out the crabs tied out.

This box of crabs was sent by Sun Guangnan in the morning, saying that he would try it out.

After taking out all the crabs in the box, he thought for a while and turned around and asked, "Can you do it?"

"Ah?" Chu Yun was staring at the crabs. From the appearance, it looked very much like the hairy crabs in Chengyang Lake. When he heard his question, he nodded subconsciously, "Yes."

Zhong Yue said, "Then you come."

"Uh" Chu Yun saw that he had already made way out of the position, so she had to bite the bullet and walk over, put on the apron he handed over, and started to take action.

Before Zhong Yue walked away, he sat down at the dining table next to him, holding his chin, not knowing what he was thinking.

Chu Yun took the brush to clean the crabs. She felt the atmosphere was a little awkward and wanted to find some topics, "Are you living alone?"

"Yes." Zhong Yue nodded.

"Where is your girlfriend?" As soon as she finished asking, she regretted it. How could she ask the boss such a private topic?

Zhong Yue said, "I didn't live together."

She couldn't help but turn her head and look at him, his face facing her, and when she said this, she looked a little lonely. This was the first time she saw this expression on his face.

She suddenly felt that the strong, calm, stubborn and inhumane boss in the company also had a childish and ridiculous side, and like an ordinary person, he would have a time of loneliness. (To be continued.)
