Chapter 31: Chapter 31: The Customer Wants to See You

The churning darkness of the night subsided, and the sun rose, soothing the vast land.

Qiao Yin pulled open the curtain, watching the sunlight illuminate her bedroom, she stretched lazily.

She hadn’t pulled an all-nighter last night, but had a good sleep instead.

After getting herself ready, Qiao Yin headed to the office.

Yan Xing called her into his office: “Qiao Yin, the client from last time who wanted the video restored, he wants to meet you.”

A strange feeling surged in Qiao Yin’s heart, but she held herself steady: “Why?”

“He has another video that’s even more complex and important that he wants you to repair.”

“Can’t he just send us the video directly?”

Yan Xing shook his head: “The client said this video is very important, it needs to be strictly confidential, he wants to negotiate with you face to face.”

Qiao Yin declined: “Well then, tell him to find someone else.”

Yan Xing looked at her, somewhat puzzled: “Qiao Yin, why don’t you want to meet this client? Do you know how much he’s offering? Five million, a full five million!”

Qiao Yin was stunned, a sudden wave of sadness crashing over her.

Lu Lingche was willing to spend five million to repair a video, but the divorce compensation he offered her was only one million.

She wondered what was in the video that made him willing to spend so much on its repair. When it came to the repair of the video at home, he even haggled the price down to eighty thousand.

Thinking about it now, it turned out he didn’t care about the money, he just didn’t care about her. Whether or not the home video was repaired and whether she was innocent, he never took it too seriously, otherwise he wouldn’t have bargained.

“Manager Yan, I have several other urgent tasks you’ve assigned me to solve. Please assign this client to somebody else! Besides, the video I repaired last time was really the limit of my abilities. For more complex ones, I might not be able to fix them, after all my main expertise is in cyber security, I’m a bit lacking when it comes to video repair.”

Yan Xing was silent for a while. In the end, he didn’t force Qiao Yin. He waved for her to leave, then called the client and told him that if the video had been severely damaged, even the best engineer couldn’t repair it.

On the other end of the phone, assistant Yuanshan, under the instructions of Lu Lingche, had already raised the price to ten million.

The response was still negative.

After hanging up the phone, Yuanshan reported truthfully: “President Lu, they said they can’t fix it.”

Lu Lingche stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, the sunlight shining on him, casting a halo of pale gold.

The warm color, however, did not soften his appearance, but made him even more ruthless.

He looked down at the U-disk in his hand and said indifferently: “No, that Manager Yan lied. This video, there must be a way to repair it.”

Yuanshan found it strange: “President Lu, he hasn’t even seen what’s on this U-disk. How do you know he can fix it?”

“Because when you raised the price to ten million, he hesitated for two seconds.”

Lu Lingche clenched the U-disk. In it was crucial evidence of his elder brother’s murder. He was willing to spare no expense to restore the video and find the real murderer who killed his brother!

“Yuanshan, tell them who I truly am. If they don’t fix this video, I’ll make sure their company doesn’t get a single client in the future.”

A few minutes later, a frantic figure darted through the office of Starlight Technology.

Yan Xing sprinted into Qiao Yin’s office like a marathon runner: “Qiao Yin, you have to save our company!”

Seeing his panicked expression, Qiao Yin had a bad feeling: “What’s wrong?”

“The client who wants the video repaired is Lu Lingche from Shengling Group! He he he…he said, if the video is not well repaired, he will destroy our company, and we won’t get any clients in the future!”

Qiao Yin couldn’t help but sigh, “Alright, I understand, Manager Yan.”

Seeing her surprisingly calm demeanor, Yan Xing couldn’t help but be curious, “Why aren’t you surprised? Scared? Is there something you’re keeping from me?”

Qiao Yin chuckled lightly: “Indeed, I’ve kept something from you. I know Lu Lingche. I knew he was the client, which is why I declined.”

“What?!!”

“Lu Lingche and I have had some disagreements. For the time being, I don’t want him to know where I work or what I do. So, I beg Manager Yan to keep my secret..”
