After a few hours, Wang Guiren and Wang Huo arrived in a hurry.

It was a sleepless night for everyone as they discussed what had happened.

This discussion included their losses from tonight's attack as well as Wang Mino's supposed pregnant girlfriend.

However, no matter how much they analyzed these random things, they couldn't seem to come up with a solution other than searching for the culprit and being more careful.

The discussion ended with them being exhausted and without any solutions. After all, waging a war was only easy if one knew who their enemy was.

... .

However, who would have known that this was just the beginning of their problems?

That noon, another malware attack occurred. This time it was directed at the Wu Conglomerate.

This made Jennie and Lisa more confused.

"These attacks look so random and intentional at the same time." Jennie said, her eyes glued to her laptop. "As if someone is deliberately keeping us busy to divert their attention"

"I agree. Look at this file that Bei' Ye has sent." Lisa said. The couple chose to deal with all of these problems together in Jennie's room. After all, the safest location was the Wang Estate.

Jennie was adamant on staying at home to deal with these things. Since their enemy was still unknown, they were at a disadvantage, which meant that they couldn't move forward. The best thing to do if they couldn't move forward was to stay where they were.

This was a very important lesson that Jennie learned from reading the Art of War. If it is to your advantage, make a forward move. If not, stay where you are.

"Hmmm... so that producer that Yu Yan told us about is also a dead end." shee thought out loud. lisa had just shown her the results of their investigation on the manuscript. According to Bei' Ye's findings, the producer was currently not aware of the manuscript that Yu Yan was talking about.

This could only mean two things. Either Yu Yan was lying, or she was tricked and had given the manuscript to someone else.

Someone who was either eyeing the film, or JRJ Publishing.

At the same time, Jienni also received a call from Wang Minp. He informed her that Manoban Xiaolan wanted to see him to talk about something important.

Jennie massaged her temples after she finished her call with Mino.

"Seems like your uncle is making his move." She told Lisa while massaging her neck. "The timing is just so perfect. I have a suspicion that he is the one responsible for all this, but I am confused about one thing. He could have easily done this a year ago while I was away. Why would he choose to wait until I came back to launch his plan?"

To her surprise, Lisa put away his laptop and walked behind her to massage her neck. "Don't tire yourself out. We are safe. Stop worrying about things so much. I'm sure we can solve this together."

"Hmmm..." she said while indulging herself in lisa's massage. "This is good."

"Hm?"

"I mean you and me working together at the same time feels good." she clarified.

"We will do this every day from now on." Lisa said, his voice as gentle as his gaze. To be with her was his dream. In both his previous and current lives.

"We should." she nodded before turning her gaze to her laptop. "Hey... check this out."

Lisa stopped massaging her neck and sit down beside her. "What is this?"

"This is the only lead that we have. The Hacker. She is located abroad and guess what?" Jennie beamed.

"What?" he asked.

"I just established a way to communicate with her." She declared proudly.

Lisa stared at the laptop, "You're going to disturb all of her current jobs?"

"You are so smart. I love it. Hehehe... " Jennie laughed before pointing at her laptop. "See this? I was able to break into her firewall and monitor her current movements. I know she is accepting multiple jobs and I was able to trace all of them."

"So you are planning to ruin her previous jobs and stain her name?"

"No... what's the use in ruining her previous jobs? I will ruin her current ones until she realizes that something is wrong and contacts me." She said.

"Smart. »Lisa praised.

"I know! Come on! Pat my head!" she playfully said.

Lisa just smiled and pat Jennie's head. "Hmmm... you're the best."

she smiled at his doting behavior before diverting her attention to her current mission.

What she needed now was to be as low key as possible and appear to be powerless against this attack.

Then wait.

Wait for their next move.

Jennie was certain that after tonight she would be able to establish a plan of counterattack.
