After returning home, Qia Yin took a bath and then sat down in front of the computer.
With a heavy heart, she posted her car on a used car website for sale.
This Porsche was a gift from her grandmother before her wedding, it was her dowry. But now, she felt it better to sell it to overcome her immediate financial trouble.
Next, she logged onto a website named ‘crisis’.
This was an international hacker website, where many people posted and accepted tasks for extra income.
Qiao Yin was in desperate need of money. She wasn’t interested in minor tasks; she only pursued the big ones.
A task caught her attention: an anonymous company had recently developed a new mobile phone operating system to be launched soon. Before the launch, they hoped hackers could help them find any possible weaknesses. For each flaw found, they offered a reward of one million US dollars.
The task logs showed that thousands of hackers had accepted the task, but so far, none had claimed the reward.
The huge reward tantalized Qiao Yin, and she immediately accepted the task.
After that, she stayed up all night, trying to hack into the system.
However, it was apparent the reward wasn’t easy to obtain. By dawn, she made no progress.
Qiao Yin anticipated this outcome. This website attracted top hackers worldwide if they hadn’t breached this system yet, it indicated that it had undergone several rounds of perfecting, and it was close to perfect.
But she wasn’t discouraged. The more challenging it was to break, the more it stimulated her fighting spirit.
On the contrary, she had already started receiving interest from potential buyers for her car.
Qiao Yin had a cup of oat milk, contacted the interested buyers, arranged to see the car at noon, then grabbed her bag and left.
Once she got to work, she started processing the video of Lu Lingche. The virus from yesterday wasn’t completely eliminated.
At 10:30 am, when Yan Xing, the boss, arrived at the office with coffee, Qiao Yin had already fully restored the video.
“Manager Yan, the video restoration is complete. Would you like to check it?”
Yan Xing was stunned, “You’ve already finished the restoration? I thought it would take at least a week!”
“I did push myself, Manager Yan.”
Seeing her tired face and bloodshot eyes, it was clear she had stayed up all night. Yan Xing assumed she had spent the night fixing the video and was very pleased with her work ethic, “I trust your work. You can directly send the video to the client’s email.”
Qiao Yin let out a sigh of relief, she still had to figure out how to explain to the boss that she was the protagonist in the video. This saved her the trouble.
“However, Manager Yan, I have a small request.”
“Go ahead.”
“I would like to advance my pay. I have a family emergency and urgently need money. What do you think?”
“How much do you want?”
“One million.”
Yan Xing choked on his drink, cleared his throat, and said, “Qiao Yin, the amount you’re asking for is quite substantial. Also, the payment for the video restoration hasn’t been made by the client yet. Even when it’s paid, the company can only give you a 50% commission, which is forty thousand. And then there’s tax to take out…”
Qiao Yin was somewhat anxious, “Manager Yan, I really urgently need the money. Please help me out. I will continue to work and contribute to the company. I would like to advance one million, and you can deduct it from my future wages.”
“How about this, you can advance fifty thousand from the finance department. There’s no more than that. The company is also going through a challenging time. Qiao Yin, you must also understand the situation.”
Qiao Yin was somewhat disappointed.
She had been working part-time for this company since university, solving one problem after another for years. She had earned millions for Yan Xing, but now he was only willing to lend her fifty thousand.
Fifty thousand was a drop in the bucket for her.
She shook her head, not accepting it.
By noon, Qiao Yin had sold her car. Because of her urgent need to sell, she accepted an offer of only seven hundred thousand for her car worth originally one million two hundred thousand.
Then, she transferred all of this money to her father’s account.
A moment later, she received a call from Qiao Haidong.
“Yinyin, why did you only transfer me so little money? It’s not even enough to cover the fees for your brother’s tuition and living expenses.. Transfer me more, I need to pay off the debts urgently!”
