I was exposed for adding my female boss to my group of female friends.

Si Chaoliang opened the door to greet her, and he smiled broadly when he saw Lu Qianzi.

Liu Ruying looked around the classroom and saw that everyone was sitting around a table, each with a laptop in their hand.

The curtains blocked out the already limited sunlight, and with the classroom lights off, the eerie blue light from the computer screens cast a somewhat frightening glow on people's faces.

"What are you doing?" Lu Qianzi asked.

"We are tackling difficult problems," Si Chaoliang said.

"What's the problem? Aren't we investigating Bai Yujing's identity?" Lu Qianzi asked.

Si Chaoliang smiled wryly: "We encountered a problem when we were investigating his identity... It's a long story. Please make yourselves at home, I'll get you some water."

Liu Ruying and Lu Qianzi found a place to sit, and Si Chaoliang brought over two cups of warm water in paper cups.

Lu Qianzi asked, "How is Young Master Xu, who smashed the principal's car, doing?"

Si Chaoliang smiled bitterly after hearing this:

"Young Master Xu is in trouble. He received a major demerit and a school-wide reprimand. The worst part is that his father found out and confiscated his Maserati, stopped his allowance for three months, suspended him from school for a week, and he's probably locked up at home writing a self-criticism now."

Lu Qianzi said gloatingly, "Serves him right, who told him to be so violent."

Si Chaoliang said, "I really want to know how you anticipated that he would smash the car and replaced it with the principal's car?"

Lu Qianzi shrugged: "I don't know either. Is it possible that the principal parked it there himself?"

While the two were talking, Liu Ruying looked around the classroom.

By the sunlight filtering through the curtains, she saw a pile of banners hanging on the classroom wall, and a display case next to the wall.

She walked over and saw a bunch of miscellaneous and ambiguous things inside the display case, and on the wall next to the display case, there was a line of words engraved.

"You're not just struggling, you're fighting." — Yunlou

She was slightly surprised and gently placed her hand on the line of text.

On the whitewashed wall, the words appeared to have been chiseled out with a seal engraving knife. Each stroke was strong and powerful, deeply embedded in the wall.

"It's not about striving..."

Liu Ruying murmured the words over and over again, lost in thought.

Not far away, Si Chaoliang also noticed her discovery and said with a smile:

"You saw the inscription by the founder of Eagle's Nest."

"The founder of Eagle's Nest?" Liu Ruying asked, pointing to the words. "You mean, this Cloud Tower?"

“Yes.” Si Chaoliang nodded. “Yunlou and Yuejing, the two founders of Eagle’s Nest.”

Liu Ruying remembered these two names.

Not far away, Xia Yingji looked up at Si Chaoliang and said:

"Stop showing off your Eagle's Nest knowledge. You've only been here for one day. I told you this two hours ago and you're already showing it off. Are you just learning it on the spot?"

Si Chaoliang pointed at him like Wang Jingze: "Good brothers agree not to hit someone in the face!"

"Stop joking, we're facing a real problem."

Lu Qianzi whispered, "What are they doing?"

Si Chaoliang also answered in a low voice:

"Here's what happened: Xia Yingji found a paper by Bai Yujing on CNKI, and through some clues, he found previous reports about that guy."

After saying that, he turned around, took a sheet of printed paper, and placed it in front of Lu Qianzi.

The paper had a large title at the top: "The young librarian, though poor, persevered and became self-taught."

After reading the report, Lu Qianzi looked up at Liu Ruying and said:

"The report said that he dropped out of junior high school, became self-taught in the library, and successfully published a paper under the guidance of a professor. He didn't lie to us."

Liu Ruying nodded, then asked, "Which professor?"

"It wasn't mentioned in the report. I guess he's not a very well-known professor."

Liu Ruying turned to Si Chaoliang and asked, "Now that they've found it, what are they still doing?"

Si Chaoliang smiled and said, "The problem is that the Witch Master found some very interesting little things in his materials."

"Simply put, some of his information had been deliberately erased, but the Witch Lord, through extensive searching, eventually restored that information. You see."

He placed another sheet of printed paper in front of the two of them.

On the printed paper was a resume.

Chen Ya's resume.

Liu Ruying and Lu Qianzi quickly picked up the paper and put their heads together.

The resume was very simple, containing only Chen Ya's age and experience.

His resume shows that after dropping out of junior high school at the age of 13, he went to work in Shanghai and later joined the Fukang factory.

During this period, I taught myself computer skills and obtained a Level 2 Computer Certificate.

It wasn't until he was in his twenties that he became a librarian at Kyoto University.

On the surface, it's just an ordinary life resume.

"How did you find something so private?" Lu Qianzi asked, her eyes wide.

“You may not know this, but Wu Zun is the best hacker in the entire Peking University,” Si Chaoliang said. “There’s nothing he can’t dig out if he wants to. The problem is, look at this resume again.”

The two girls looked at the printed paper in their hands again and realized that something was indeed wrong.

But I can't quite put my finger on what's wrong.

Si Chaoliang looked at them inscrutably for a while before pointing to a blank space on the resume:

"There's a missing part of the experience!"

The two girls looked at each other in bewilderment.

He pointed to the printed paper and said, "See the ad at the bottom of this webpage? This juice brand was only founded in 17, but this resume only goes up to 15. What about the next two years?"

Liu Ruying thought for a moment and said, "That's right. The last experience on his resume was as a librarian at Peking University. But when I asked a senior who was still at the school 17 years ago, he didn't remember Bai Yujing at all, which means that he had already left the school at that time."

“So,” Si Chaoliang took a deep breath and said, “this resume was modified and then deleted.”

After placing the printed paper on the table, he patted it with his palm: "Why?"

"Why?" Lu Qianzi asked.

Si Chaoliang paused for a moment, then said, "I don't know why either. Let's wait for the Witch Lord to use his computer skills to see what's hidden behind this."

"Tch." Lu Qianzi scoffed.

Si Chaoliang was secretly delighted.

The fact that he could talk to Lu Qianzi like this was enough to show that their relationship had made a breakthrough.

The three waited for a long time, when suddenly a cheer came from the Witch Lord's side: "It's done!"

Everyone immediately crowded around, and the shaman cracked his knuckles, saying smugly:

"He thought he could fool me, and even encrypted the hidden information, but that's no match for the genius of me, hmph."

"What's wrong? What happened?"

Everyone gathered around.

Wu Zun pointed to the computer and said, "I will omit the details of the process and just talk about the result. He eventually went to Japan and only recently returned to China."

Liu Ruying and Lu Qianzi exchanged a glance.

This was just as they had guessed.

Si Chaoliang said, "That's why he got to know Miss Asai."

"So what was he doing in Japan? Studying? On exchange? Traveling?" Xia Yingji asked.

“It’s a job.” The shaman’s lips curled into a smile. “And it’s a labor dispatch job.”

He paused and then said, "His labor dispatch information and data are available online. Although they have all been deleted, genius like me still managed to get them out using some tricks."

Liu Ruying touched her lips with her finger and asked, "So, he became self-taught in the library, then went to Japan on a labor dispatch, met Miss Asai, returned to China, and began to rise to prominence?"

“To add to that, I think his so-called self-taught success in the library was actually about building connections with professors,” Wu Zun said. “With his level of expertise, it’s impossible for him to be listed as the first author on a paper, but he is listed as the first author, which is obviously a gift from the professor.”

"What was his paper about?"

"Regarding Chinese language and literature," Wu Zun said, "I've looked at them, and they're rather superficial."

Lu Qianzi tried to save face for Chen Ya:

"It's quite remarkable that he, who didn't even finish junior high school, has managed to get to where he is today through his own efforts."

Si Chaoliang said indignantly, "But he's being a bit too pretentious. He clearly relies on connections, yet he acts like he's so capable."

"Connections are also a skill," Liu Ruying said calmly.

Hearing what Liu, the school beauty, had said, Si Chaoliang shut up and stopped talking.

Liu Ruying is now much more at ease.

After learning about Chen Ya's background, she felt confident again.

Given Chen Ya's situation, there's no future for him and that Miss Asai.

Given the choice between someone who will eventually leave and someone who will bring you immense wealth once you marry them, even a three-year-old knows the answer.

Lu Qianzi patted her chest and said, "Luckily, I didn't say much yesterday. What if I had bragged so much that even my parents believed me? How would I have handled that?"

Si Chaoliang laughed and said, "Now you should know. Go back and tell your parents that he's a very good actor, so don't actually believe him."

Lu Qianzi extended her palm in a gesture of "no need":

"There's no need for that. Everyone cares about their image. I don't think it's a particularly serious flaw of his."

Si Chaoliang stopped smiling and quickly said, "Yes, I think so too, it was just a joke."

Xia Yingji secretly pinched Si Chaoliang under the table.

This guy is going to such lengths to woo Lu Qianzi.

Liu Ruying looked at the Witch Lord with her watery eyes and said, "You are really amazing."

The shaman blushed instantly, scratched his head, and said:

"It's nothing, it's nothing. I just didn't perform well this time and it took me a little longer. In the past, I could solve clues like this in seconds."

Xia Yingji sneered, "You're getting cocky just because I called you fat. Trying to show off in front of School Beauty Liu, huh?"

The shaman slapped him and yelled, "Why did you have to talk back!"

Si Chaoliang rested his arm on the table and whispered to Lu Qianzi:

"Qianzi, you should be careful with your brother. People who care a lot about their image usually like to cause trouble."

Lu Qianzi said calmly, "I will be careful."

Si Chaoliang was a little anxious when he saw that she didn't seem to take his words to heart. But he knew that even strangers shouldn't interfere with close relationships. As he got to know Lu Qianzi better, his place in her heart would rise.

After saying goodbye to Eagle's Nest, the two girls walked out of the underground classroom.

The two walked hand in hand down the street, each lost in their own thoughts.

Lu Qianzi was thinking about how to salvage Chen Ya's image in Liu Ruying's heart and prevent her from breaking off the engagement.

Liu Ruying, on the other hand, was thinking about how to lure Chen Ya back to her side in a way that would make her appear more respectable.

Lu Qianzi said, "Ruying, why don't we find an opportunity to invite Chen Ya out so we can get together again and be honest with each other?"

The steps came down unexpectedly smoothly, and Liu Ruying immediately went down the slope, saying, "Great, great!"

After a while, she smiled and said, "How about we get together alone, like a date? I'm his fiancée, so we should get to know each other better."

Lu Qianzi stared at her with her mouth agape.

"What's wrong?" Liu Ruying asked with a smile.

"It's nothing, I just think you have such a great personality."

Where?
