Chapter 31: Handing Over the Task

  The next day, C?te d'Azur —

  Zhou Jian arrived in Pengcheng at 9 am and then took a taxi straight to Azure Coast.

  Yesterday, Zhou Jian spent a bit of money on Hong Kong Island, buying some clothes. The suit he was wearing hadn't been washed for a week and was already dirty beyond recognition.

  A pair of Levi's jeans, a casual shirt and a discounted Pierre Cardin belt. It has to be said that Zhou Jian looks quite decent in this outfit, although not enough to attract the attention of pretty girls on the street, at least he looks very clean and tidy, with a bit of bookish air.

  After making a phone call in the security room, he finally got permission from the security guard to enter the Azure Coast Villa District. To think of it, this was Zhou Jian's first time walking through the main gate into a high-end residential area.

  When Zhou Jian arrived at the villa with a safe, Chu Qingyun was already waiting at the gate. She wasn't wearing her work attire, but rather a white casual outfit that accentuated her plump figure, making her look even more beautiful.

  Chu Qingyun was taken aback for a moment by Zhou Jian's neat and clean attire, not because Zhou Jian was particularly handsome, after all, Chu Qingyun had seen too many handsome men. On Zhou Jian, Chu Qingyun could feel a simple and unpretentious feeling, like an uncarved jade, although it didn't shine brightly, but still, one could see its extraordinary quality at a glance.

  "Good grief, this thing is really heavy." Zhou Jian let out a breath and put down the safe deposit box. Chu Qingyun thought that if Zhou Jian was joking around, someone who could take down Ba Yu wouldn't be unable to move a safe deposit box, right?

  "We meet again." Chu Qingyun stretched out her hand.

  Zhou Jian wiped the sweat from his hands and held Chu Qing's soft hand in his.

  "Is the secret formula in the safe?"

  "Probably not, the secret formula was copied by Sun De Guang into a U disk. This thing contains your father's notebook, I'm afraid the secret formula hasn't been deleted yet, so to be on the safe side, I also brought it along."

  Although Zhou Jian said it lightly, Chu Qingyun was shocked in her heart. She knew that snatching out such a big iron thing in the chaos wasn't an easy task.

  Chu Qingyun opened the door to let Zhou Jian in, although she knew that this was already Zhou Jian's second visit to her home. However, Chu Qingyun still felt a bit strange, after all, before this, she would never discuss work matters at home, and home was her private space, not to mention that this time it was a member of the opposite sex who came.

  "Miss Qingyun, here it is." Zhou Jian took out a U-disk from his pocket and handed it to Chu Qingyun.

  Actually, when Chu Qingyun entrusted Zhou Jian with the task, she had already thought that Sun Deguang might have transferred the UC video in the notebook. Her father was indeed a genius, but not an all-around talent. After all, he couldn't compare to professionals in software encryption. It was normal for it to be copied, but what could Chu Qingyun do even if she thought of this possibility? She didn't have any targeted methods and could only bet that Sun Deguang, who was suspicious by nature, wouldn't want others to know and therefore wouldn't find someone to copy the UC video in her father's notebook.

  So she can only resort to desperate measures, hiring someone to steal the notebook. If it weren't for the existence of a freak like Zhou Jian, not only would she be unable to get her hands on this USB drive, but also wouldn't even have a chance to find out where it's hidden.

  It's actually reasonable to say that Sun De Guang didn't need to be so cautious, and Chu Qing Yun had never revealed to Sun De Guang that she knew about the notebook because she was afraid of stirring up trouble. Unfortunately, even in this situation, Sun De Guang still eliminated this extremely small possibility by transferring the UC video, he didn't want to give his opponent any opportunity.

  Sun De Guang is a cautious and cunning old fox, paired with the highly skilled and ruthless Bai Yu. This combination unexpectedly lost to the young man in front of them. Moreover, don't forget that Sun De Guang and Bai Yu were on guard, while Zhou Jian was sneaking, and at first, he didn't even know where the thing was hidden. In this situation, guarding is much easier than sneaking, but the result was so unexpected.

  His physical skills, as well as his calm judgment, the only shortcoming is that he lacks experience, possibly due to his age, he lacks many common sense experiences, such as being unfamiliar with bounty hunters, and not fully understanding that stock price manipulation is a commercial crime, apart from this, he has no weaknesses.

  This young man is really scary, this was Chu Qingyun's evaluation of Zhou Jian in her heart.

  Zhou Jiandao said: "The password lock on the outside of the safe has been opened by me, but I am powerless against the fingerprint lock inside." After trying, Zhou Jiandao found that his lock-picking skills were useless against high-tech electronic locks without keyholes.

  Chu Qingyun really couldn't imagine how the young man in front of her had managed to do all this, and yet he was able to steal such a large safe after stealing Sun Deguang's hidden U-disk. Who would have thought that both things were stolen with the most security?

  Chu Qingyun took the U-disk and went to the second floor study with Zhou Jian, unplugging the laptop's network cable. Chu Qingyun inserted the U-disk, turned on the computer, and while waiting for it to start up, she asked with interest: "How did you guess that Sun De Guang had transferred the secret formula?"

  "I just thought the safe's location was too obvious and suspicious, so I considered this possibility."

  Chu Qingyun smiled and threw a stone to test the waters, which might not be considered a clever plan, but the problem was how to monitor Sun Deguang's movements in the heavily guarded villa. Even thinking about it with one's toes would know that when Sun Deguang checked whether the secret formula was safe, he must have ruled out all possibilities of being monitored.

  She didn't know how Zhou Jian seized that fleeting opportunity in just a few days, just like she didn't know how Zhou Jian knew when to take a bath during the wait of one night.

  However, Chu Qingyun didn't ask, she knew when to keep silent, this was the host's specialty, and naturally didn't want to say.

  The laptop started up, and Chu Qingyun opened the U-disk space. As expected, there were 12 UC video files inside. Chu Qingyun took a deep breath, suppressing the excitement in her heart. No one could understand her emotions at this moment. For half a year, she had been working tirelessly for these twelve files...

  Some trembling opened one of the files, and a video demo started. Zhou Jian chose to turn his back at this time to avoid suspicion, although he couldn't understand it even if he looked.

  In the video, one by one atomic model in addition, substitution, condensation... Chu Qingyun with excellent organic chemistry foundation naturally distinguishes the authenticity of this video.

  She looked and looked, her eyes getting a little wet, Father... if you know, you should be smiling in the underworld now, your daughter has finally kept your legacy safe...
