Chapter 256: My Heart Belongs Only to You (Part 1)

Shen Lingyao thought it was a message from one of Brother Qingfeng’s rivals.

Dialing back, all she heard was the sound of passing traffic.

“Nobody’s answering, who is this?”

Shen Lingyao urged from the side.

“I don’t know.”

Zhao Qingfeng wasn’t interested in delving deeper.

After escorting Shen Lingyao back to her dormitory and sharing a goodbye kiss at the door, they agreed on a sweet date for the weekend, and then he went back to his dormitory to sleep.

An hour later, the sound of rain began to fall outside the window, growing heavier with time.

At this moment, only two kilometers away from Ji Province University, on the rooftop of a restaurant, Li Jiahang was getting drenched in the rain.

He had learned about Liu Ruoxin chasing after Zhao Qingfeng.

Not only had a disgruntled former employee ‘kindly’ warned him, but Liu’s former driver had also provided confirmation.

Normally, Li Jiahang would have seen through this ‘scheme’ and withdrawn completely.

But now, he was too entangled and utterly captivated by Liu Ruoxin’s manipulations.

Moreover, he had no way out.

A few days ago, he visited the school, but neither teachers nor professors could recover the data from the USB drive, and the money he had spent was wasted.

Liu Zhiqiang’s trip to Beijing was also fruitless.

Despite filing a police report, there was no trace of Li Zhi’s childhood friend from afar.

Liu Zhiqiang also forcefully demanded he return his shares, intending to restore the original 20% ownership of Zhiqiang Technology back.

But Li Jiahang was not unable to return them.

Now, having previously sided with Liu Zhiqiang and given up on Tencent, he faced a total blockade by Ma Huateng. The school’s teachers also couldn’t understand why he would lower himself to join a hack company, abandoning the nurturing they had offered him. But none of these, including rumors about Zhao Qingfeng and Liu Ruoxin, mattered much to him now.

What he wanted most was a word from Liu Ruoxin.

As long as the girl he fell for at first sight still loved him, then nothing else mattered, even if it meant starting all over again.

Time ticked by.

Li Jiahang’s glasses were already wet from the rain.

He didn’t contact Zhao Qingfeng again, instead waiting for the rushing arrival of Liu Zhiqiang and Liu Ruoxin.

The Liu family, father and daughter, hurried up the side stairs to the rooftop of the small restaurant they often dined at, holding an umbrella.

Liu Zhiqiang was the first to confront him, shouting, “Li Jiahang, what’s the meaning of calling me here in the middle of the night! We’re already done with each other, I made it clear during our last argument: either return the shares to me or I’ll sue you! Moreover, it’s all because of you, your joining didn’t bring any profit to my Zhiqiang Technology, what else is there to say?”

Li Jiahang felt wronged.

At least, that’s what he believed.

During his time at Liu Zhiqiang’s company, he worked tirelessly every day, overworking himself to develop the most powerful hack for the game “Legend of Mir” as soon as it entered beta testing.

He had laid a lot of groundwork, even getting access to the beta version earlier than Zhao Qingfeng.

Unfortunately, his skills were still far inferior to Zhao Qingfeng’s.
