Ji Yu couldn't help but want to applaud him. Who would believe such words?

"Then you are quite lucky. You wanted to short Xin Ke's stock, and someone helped you expose the problem of Xin Ke's experiment."

"But how did you get the internal files and data of such a large company? Or did you plan ahead of time? Who is your insider? What's his name?"

Gu Wen Ze was sweating profusely after hearing what he said. It was just a spur of the moment reaction and he didn't think too much about it.

He didn't want to expose the fact that he was a hacker, so it could only be that he had help from an insider.

There was indeed an insider, but the other party was just an ordinary employee and he had no access to some core information and data.

"Why don't you answer?" Yuan Shenghe asked.

Gu Wen Ze had no choice but to grit his teeth and say the other person's name.

If we really investigate, this kind of thing will not stand up to scrutiny and his lies will be exposed.

But it’s been a while since the Xin Ke incident, so I guess my uncle won’t investigate it.

"I remember you majored in computer science and finance in college, right?"

Yuan Shenghe's words were like a bolt of lightning that suddenly struck him on the head.

Gu Wenze felt dizzy. Why did his uncle suddenly say this? "Uncle... why did you suddenly say this?"

"All you have to do is answer."

Gu Wenzhe lowered his head and said, "Yes, I majored in these two subjects in college."

As the male protagonist, it is normal for him to be good at studying.

"However, after going abroad, I no longer majored in computer science. I only studied it for a period of time in college, and then I focused on studying finance."

He made a special explanation in order to get away with it.

Ji Yu would not give him this opportunity. Although they already knew that he was Old A, it was quite interesting to see him trying to explain himself in a panic.

"I did study for a while, and then I won various computer awards, am I right?"

"So what!" Gu Wen Ze became angry and embarrassed.

Ji Yu smiled slightly: "If so, then what you said may not be true."

"Then tell me what I said was wrong!"

Gu Wen Ze was confident that he had never revealed his true colors in front of them.

"Of course. To tell you the truth, I have a junior who is an employee of the Xinke Group Laboratory. He told me that a few days before their experimental data was leaked, hackers broke into the company's system and stole some of the experimental data."

This is no longer a secret; Ji Yu said it on purpose to motivate him.

"so what?"

Gu Wen Ze frowned. This answer was beyond his expectations, but he didn't think there was any problem with it.

Even if he knew the person, it would only mean that he bought Shinco's stock based on insider information.

"It's nothing, it's just that my fellow apprentice and his mentor thanked me very much." Ji Yu spread his hands.

Gu Wenzhe was inexplicably uneasy: "What do you mean, why should they thank you?"

"My junior fellow student said that their experiment had indeed encountered obstacles and progress had been stagnant. Just like what the anonymous person revealed, there was indeed something wrong with their research direction."

"But after talking to me, he said that my words gave him a new idea and research direction. He later went to find his supervisor and changed his mind, only to find that their previous research direction was wrong."

After Ji Yu finished speaking, he explained to Yuan Shenghe.

"I didn't think it was a big problem before, so I didn't tell you."

Gu Wenze's pupils suddenly widened and he blurted out, "It's you!"

"Are you angry?" Ji Yu knew he couldn't help himself, "Could it be that you are the one who stole the experimental data of Xinke?"

Gu Wen Ze knew he had made a mistake the moment he said it, and he immediately retorted, "Nonsense! What evidence do you have?"

Ji Yu shrugged. "I don't need evidence. It's none of my business."

"Uncle, don't listen to his nonsense. It really wasn't me. It really was just a coincidence."

Gu Wenzhe didn't care whether he believed it or not, as long as Yuan Shenghe believed in him.

"Ji Yu just didn't like me, so he deliberately said bad things about me in front of you. He has no evidence to prove that I did it."

Yuan Shenghe asked: "So you don't admit that you did it?"

Gu Wen Ze looked up indignantly, and his heart skipped a beat when he met his sharp gaze.

The momentum accumulated due to anger dissipated in an instant. He swallowed subconsciously, but wanted to continue denying it.

Before he could speak, Yuan Shenghe added slowly, "Think carefully about what you want to say."

Gu Wenzhe's heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly felt like he was being seen through.

But once he admitted it, he could no longer keep many of his secrets.

Just like pulling out a radish, you will also get mud.

He couldn't bear a greater loss, nor could he speak it out because it involved too much of his privacy.

"No, I never did it in the first place, why should I admit it!"

"Uncle, you are too biased. You clearly promised my great-aunt that you would take care of me, but now you would rather believe Ji Yu than me! You were not like this before!"

"Oh?" Yuan Shenghe stood up, walked around the desk and came to him.

"Then what do you want me to do?"

Gu Wen Ze was slightly delighted. Did his uncle believe him?

Many thoughts flashed through his mind quickly, and he considered for a moment before speaking.

"Uncle, I know that I have brought this upon myself. I shouldn't have disobeyed you and invested in Tianxing Entertainment. I won't make the same mistake again."

"I'm not asking you to forgive me. I'm only looking for you because I have no other choice. I want to borrow some money from you. I'll write you an IOU, and when I make money in the future, I'll pay you back with interest."

"How much?" Yuan Shenghe put one hand in his pocket and looked down at him.

Gu Wenzhe hesitantly extended two fingers, but soon he added another.

"Three hundred million. That's all I need to borrow."

Ji Yu chuckled.

Gu Wen Ze had turned a deaf ear to his voice. As long as Yuan Shenghe nodded, with the three hundred million, he would have much more room to maneuver.

If Haituo Real Estate dares to threaten him, he will never let them go.

Although his forces abroad were eliminated, he still had some subordinates left who were willing to do anything as long as they were paid.

"I won't give you this money."

Gu Wen Ze stared at Yuan Shenghe in disbelief.

"Is it Ji Yu..."

"It has nothing to do with him." Yuan Shenghe interrupted him, "You really don't know the reason?"

Gu Wen Ze subconsciously avoided his gaze. Every time he looked into his eyes, he felt like he was being seen through.

"I don't know. I only know that you have changed since I met Ji Yu. You are completely different from the wise cousin I remember. I heard that Zhou Yuliang even boasted that the Hua family was able to win the bid thanks to Ji Yu."

He didn't believe a word of it. In his opinion, Ji Yu could not be of any help at all.

It must be that my uncle deliberately asked Zhou Yuliang to say that to the Hua family in order to build momentum for Ji Yu.

"You've really taken great pains for him. You've never been so nice to me before. You only asked me to take things slow, and the only projects you helped me take were small and insignificant."

After crawling out of the mud, he realized the importance of money and power.

He desperately wanted to become stronger, but his uncle would only force him to move slowly, which was not what he wanted.

But he couldn't resist Yuan Shenghe, because he couldn't afford to gamble, let alone lose.

"Do you feel wronged?" Yuan Shenghe's black eyes were like a black hole vortex, just looking at him quietly.

Gu Wen Ze bit his lip and said nothing. He really felt wronged.

"I've already given you a chance." Yuan Shenghe turned around and walked to the empty seat on the sofa next to Ji Yu and sat down, locking his deep gaze on him again.

"I have hardly helped Ji Yu get to where he is now. He has come step by step on his own. And I have helped you with your Jingyue Real Estate several times. Do you want to count them?"

Gu Wen Ze was filled with grief and indignation. He did not believe that Ji Yu’s Galaxy Investment was the result of his own hard work, and it was unfair to him to make such a comparison.

"That's indeed not fair." Yuan Shenghe suddenly added.

Gu Wen Ze thought his voice was heard.

Yuan Shenghe's next words made him feel as if he was falling into an icy cave.

"You have created a smuggling world abroad through your own efforts. You are indeed much better than Ji Yu. Am I right, Lao A?"
