Chapter 66: Chapter 66: Hacked, Father-Son Conversation Across the Air
Meanwhile, Li Lingyang was waiting outside the emergency room, feeling a sudden itch at the tip of his nose, as if someone was thinking of him. He coughed a few times.
“Aling, dragging you out for drinks with Bailang last night, and rushing over early this morning, can your body handle it? Why don’t you go back and rest for a while?” Seeing this, Su Huimiao hurriedly advised affectionately. The greatest pride of her life was having such an outstanding son as Li Lingyang!
She and Li Jianbin’s marriage was a business union without any emotional ties between them.
Later, when the Su Family’s fortunes declined, she worried that Li Jianbin would divorce her, so she resorted to tactics to conceive Li Lingyang.
Unexpectedly, once she gave birth to Aling, Li Jianbin became more attentive to her and was determined to nurture Li Lingyang into an excellent successor. From his teenage years he brought him along personally, teaching him about the struggles of the business world.
Just like that, although their affection over the years wasn’t passionate, they treated each other with mutual respect.
At the very least, unlike other wealthy old men, Li Jianbin never fooled around outside.
Li Lingyang remained composed, “I’m fine.”
“Ah, this Jiangqing, everything is fine about her, just that she has a heart condition. Last night, when Doudou fell into the water and got cold, she also worried all night long. I heard that while we all slept, she helped the servants inventory the gifts, and importantly, she gave birth to our big, healthy grandson. Such a good daughter-in-law is hard to find even with a lantern…” Su Huimiao rambled on, her main point being that having dependable offspring was key.
During the years with Ning Yichu, Su Huimiao also clamored for a grandson.
Initially, she thought having children would make things harmonious like between her and Li Jianbin; however, it turned out that Ning Yichu wasn’t the right person.
The more Su Huimiao praised Shen Jiangqing’s sensibility, the more agitated Li Lingyang became. Their relationship wasn’t based on love, and she didn’t need to do so much.
If he could find Majesty to cure Shen Jiangqing, maybe he could be less indebted to her.
“Mom, I heard that last night, Chengcheng slept with you?” Li Lingyang abruptly changed the topic.
Su Huimiao nodded, “Yes, you wouldn’t know, but Chengcheng is growing so fast. The pajamas I bought him two months ago almost didn’t fit last night…”
“How was his mood at night?”
“He was definitely scared. Doudou fell into the water, and he worried all night long, even talked in his sleep!” Su Huimiao laughed.
Li Lingyang’s brows furrowed tighter, his voice chilly, “What did he say in his sleep?”
“What else could he say? Of course, about Doudou falling into the water. This child is just like his mother, too kind-hearted. When he grows up, he will definitely be a true gentleman.”
Li Lingyang had some suspicions. Now recalling from the moment he rescued Doudou, he had been hiding in a corner, hardly speaking. But why did he act like that?
Su Huimiao distinctly felt a chilling wrath enveloped Li Lingyang. Just as she was about to speak, the lights in the emergency room went off.
Medical staff pushed Shen Jiangqing into a regular ward. She quickly approached and asked the doctor, “How is Jiangqing? Is she out of danger? Chengcheng is so attached to Jiangqing; we can’t let him grow up without a mother…”
“She’s out of danger, but her heart condition has always been unstable and she’s still unconscious. I’d recommend minimal agitation.”
Li Lingyang strode into Shen Jiangqing’s hospital room.
About half an hour later, Shen Jiangqing slowly regained consciousness.
“Aling?” Seeing Li Lingyang, her face lit up with joy mixed with panic. “Why am I here?”
“You passed out at home this morning. How are you feeling now?”
“I’m fine… I just had a nightmare. Did I delay your work?” said Shen Jiangqing considerately.
“No. You rest up; I’ll find Majesty to cure you.” Li Lingyang, standing tall beside the bed, watched her pale face from half a meter away.
Despite them both being sick, he didn’t feel the heartache when he looked at Shen Jiangqing. What he felt was just a sense of responsibility.
Shen Jiangqing didn’t sense the alienation and was just content that Li Lingyang had always been like this. Pride swelled in her heart—even if Ning Yichu could lure Li Lingyang away, what of it?
As long as she felt unwell, Li Lingyang would immediately return to her side.
Thinking of a way to deal with her two troublesome children, everything would get better!
Li Lingyang wasn’t in the room for long when Special Assistant Xu suddenly knocked and rushed in, “President Li, there’s a problem at the company… Ah, sorry Miss Shen, I didn’t know you were awake…”
Shen Jiangqing, “…”
“What happened at the company?” Li Lingyang asked coldly.
“We’ve been hacked.”
…
Li Group had been established nearly a century ago and had faced many risks, but it had never experienced a network paralysis due to a hacker attack!
In less than twenty minutes, Li Lingyang drove back to Li Group’s network security center.
All the senior network engineers were present, working hard to repair the system.
“Who is it? What do they want?”
The moment Li Lingyang appeared, the office fell deathly silent—you could hear a pin drop. It was truly their negligence, a major dereliction of duty!
Considering the diverse businesses under Li Group, including banking and finance, the losses from network paralysis would be enormous!
“President Li…” the head of network security hung his head in shame, “the attack was very fierce, and the methods were aggressive, far beyond ordinary hackers. Currently… we haven’t yet identified the identity of the perpetrator.”
“That skillful? Then I need to meet them.” Li Lingyang eyed a computer; the virus infection had started there, then spread throughout the group.
He pulled out the executive chair, curled his legs elegantly to sit, and casually unfastened his prestigious watch. His fingers flew over the keyboard.
The network security department knew President Li was also a skilled hacker, but they had never seen him in action.
And now, he had the attacker in his sights…
Just as Li Lingyang was looking for an opportunity to counterattack, a chat box suddenly popped up on his screen.
King, “Quite clever, to be able to counterattack so quickly, but unfortunately, I’ve seen through your plan.”
Li Lingyang’s obsidian-like eyes narrowed. King? Since when did such a hacker emerge in the world?
“Big talk—who are you?”
King, “The one sent by the moon to teach you a lesson.”
Li Lingyang inhaled sharply and chuckled coldly, “Do we have a grudge?”
King, “Play a game. If you can break it within one minute, I’ll tell you who I am and why I’m attacking Li Group.”
What do you think?
