CHAPTER 278: CHAPTER 279: SO, DON’T BE AFRAID!

Ran Xiangsi held the note, glancing back at Xing Chen who had returned to his desk.

Her delicate brows furrowed slightly. She walked over in a few steps and asked in astonishment, "How do you have this?"

Xing Chen only glanced at the item in Ran Xiangsi’s hand and knew what she was asking about.

Instead of answering her question directly, he asked, "Are you in trouble?"

"Uh, not really trouble." Ran Xiangsi hesitated slightly, "You know, in my line of work, one has to be cautious."

These years, her days had been like this, so there wasn’t much to be afraid of.

Fortunately, she was a hacker with principles and never did anything illegal.

Of course, her master had also forbidden her from having any bad thoughts since she was little.

Listening to Ran Xiangsi’s indifferent tone, Xing Chen squinted dangerously.

An ordinary person receiving such a message would probably be scared out of their wits long ago.

But she acted as if it was nothing unusual?

What had happened in her short life of just over a decade?

Xing Chen frowned deeply, suddenly very curious about how she had managed these years!

"Why become a hacker?"

Facing Xing Chen’s question, Ran Xiangsi truly wanted to answer seriously, but...

"Because I started getting into it when I was five or six." She replied lightly, somewhat helpless but without clear explanation.

"You..." Xing Chen opened his mouth, wanting to ask more specifically, but in the next second, a red dot from outside the large floor-to-ceiling window suddenly swept across the tranquil office.

It happened to sweep right over Ran Xiangsi’s body!

That bright little red dot was the size of a tiny sesame seed!

Xing Chen recognized it instantly...

His pupils shrank abruptly. Xing Chen stretched out his hand and grabbed Ran Xiangsi, throwing her to the ground!

Ran Xiangsi didn’t know what the sudden change was for, she only knew she had fallen to the ground, but it didn’t hurt because Xing Chen had landed first, cushioning her fall.

"What are you doing?" Ran Xiangsi exclaimed, only to have her mouth covered by Xing Chen.

She frowned at him, only to see him staring straight at her.

And then... she saw Xing Chen’s gaze shift to the wall beside them.

A small red dot was slowly moving towards them.

In an instant, every nerve in Ran Xiangsi’s body tightened!

She loved playing CS, so she knew exactly what this meant!

But... they were in the Rongsheng Technology building, dozens of meters high, how could there be someone outside...

Could it be... there was a helicopter outside?

She didn’t dare to speak, her small hands tightly grabbing Xing Chen’s collar, her heart racing faster and faster!

Thump, thump...

Xing Chen also kept a vigilant eye on the moving red dot, tightening his hold around Ran Xiangsi.

Both of them held their breath, watching the approaching red dot, their blood boiling in that instant!

"Scared?" Xing Chen sensed Ran Xiangsi’s tension, his voice lowered as he asked her.

With their current posture and their complete uncertainty of the situation, Xing Chen’s voice was hoarse, adding an unusual hint of sexiness!

Ran Xiangsi bit her lip, nodded, then met Xing Chen’s still calm eyes and shook her head firmly.

He was there, she was not alone, so she wasn’t afraid!
