Chapter 154 - 87: The Mystery of the Gu Family (Second Update)
Quan Shaoqing smiled, knowing she would respond this way, "Certainly! As long as the seminar goes successfully, I’ll promote you one rank."
"Pfft!" Gu Xiaoxi rolled her eyes. Such a paltry reward. She had to endure the pressure of facing two hundred elites and share all the knowledge she had gained. It was not worth it.
"Not interested?" Quan Shaoqing raised an eyebrow.
Gu Xiaoxi lifted her chin and snorted, "Right, I’m not doing it! Why should I teach them what I’ve learned? Hacking skills depend on how sensitive a person is to network data. If I teach them all, what use would I be?"
Quan Shaoqing furrowed his brow, pondered for a moment, and said, "How about I promote you another level? You should know that under the lure of money, various criminal organizations are recruiting talent at a steep price. Those high-tech individuals they buy with money, skirting the edges of the law, are therefore more cautious and meticulous. Their potential and skills have been effectively explored and enhanced."
Quan Shaoqing paused for a moment and continued, "The overseas returnees in the military, drawing high salaries and reaping the benefits without contribution, they just spout theories on paper. When it comes to real combat, they’re caught off guard. And when it matters most, even the defense systems they set up are ineffective. So, this is also why we want you for the seminar. You’re Gu Lirou’s daughter, who was once a world-class hacker and definitely did quite a few illegal things. Your experience must surely surpass that of those guys in the Information Department."
Gu Xiaoxi clearly understood Quan Shaoqing’s concerns and agreed with his approach. It’s never too late to mend. It’s bold to admit one’s flaws and then rectify them.
So, without being modest at first, when she received the orders from above, she came straight away. "After the seminar, I also want to take three days off. You can’t interfere with where I go, can you?"
Quan Shaoqing looked up, his gaze coolly sweeping over Gu Xiaoxi, "Where are you planning to go on your leave?"
