The man’s phoenix eyes that were originally closed lifted slightly. He turned and looked at Janet. “What’s wrong?”
She gave him her phone and said with a smile. “Read it.”
The man’s gaze fell on the screen. Upon seeing those two words, his pupils shrank slightly. “She’s the one who accused you of plagiarism?”
“Uh-huh.” Nonchalantly, Janet went on, “And she’s from Yobril. I cured her father’s illness too. Maybe my appearance doesn’t match my capabilities, or she might have heard some rumors about me, so she thought I’m a liar and came to Sandfort City to expose me.” As she said that, she noticed the emotional changes of the man next to her. Quickly, she added, “Don’t worry. I can handle her.”
After that, the man’s slightly clenched fists slowly relaxed. He reached out and swiped away the hair on her forehead. “If you really run into trouble and I can help, you have to tell me, okay?” He knew his girl was strong enough, but he still couldn’t help worrying about her. His love bound him to her. Therefore, his worry for her was inevitable.
Janet looked up at Mason. Arching her brows slightly, she hummed faintly in response. She then asked, “Do you have a laptop? I want to play!” When he heard her request, he reached out to the back seat, grabbed his laptop, and handed it to her.
As if she had done it a thousand times, Janet turned on the laptop. When the screen lit up, she asked without looking at him, “What’s the password?”
Mason made no attempt to conceal it. Calmly, he answered, “Your name in lower case.”
Tsk. She hissed at his reply in a profound tone. After logging into the laptop, she logged into her account, and her fingers quickly tapped away on the keyboard.
Curious, Mason leaned in and looked. This time, Janet did not flinch nor hide. Her account was completely exposed to him.
“When did you learn how to hack?” Mason’s breath skipped, and he sounded impressed.
She looked up and grinned slightly. “Three years ago.”
If one were to ask how good her hacking skills were, she would probably say that she came in first or second on the Hacker List. The first place was either her or him.
“What do you think about the Black Rain’s defense system?” Mason’s charmingly low voice carried a hint of helplessness and indulgence.
Janet had hacked into the Black Rain’s system twice. Though she succeeded the first time, she couldn’t hack into the system after they upgraded the system with a new defense system. Mischievously, she raised an eyebrow. “The defense system you guys installed on the second time worked well.”
At her remarks, Mason ruffled her hair helplessly. “Do you know how long it took me to restore Black Rain’s system?” Every time he recalled that incident, he wanted to torture her in bed so badly.
Nevertheless, it seemed like Janet was really taking her time to think about his question. Her head ducked down as she thought seriously. “Based on your ranking on the Hacker List, one week should be enough to settle the problem.”
The man beside her was embarrassed by her response. One week? Then, babe really overestimated me. Mason was about to say something when he suddenly heard a phone ring.
Janet looked down at her phone and saw that it was Gordon. She paused for a few seconds before she retracted her gaze and answered the call. Her voice was cold and distant. “What’s wrong?”
The young man’s calm voice was heard on the other side. “The World Piano Competition will begin next week. I’m afraid that you’ll have to participate this time.”
When Janet heard that, the corners of her mouth were raised slightly. “Isn’t there you and Walter?”
“Walter and I have participated before, so we can’t join this time.” He seemed to be gloating.
Immediately, Janet was slightly distressed. “If you guys really can’t make it, I’ll have to ask Roxy to represent me in the competition.” Roxy was a Markovian and couldn’t represent Sandfort City, but Janet came from Markovia, and he was her student.
