Chapter 71 - 71: Finding Out the IP
Good heavens, He Sui was actually awake and still at it.
He didn’t even turn on the lights.
He Jing turned on the lights and called out, “Fourth brother.”
He Sui was startled. He turned around with his eyes wide open. He stared at He
Jing and reprimanded softly, “Why don’t you make any sound when you walk?”
He Jing had no words. “Clearly, you’re too engrossed.”
He didn’t even notice that she had turned on the lights.
Getting a fright, He Sui pulled at her arm, saying happily, “I think I’m about to master it.”
There were a bunch of road maps and English words on the laptop screen. He
Jing couldn’t help but wonder, “Really? Fourth Brother, don’t lie to me.” He Sui was angry. “Who are you looking down on? I can crack your lousy IP in ten minutes.”
He Jing was flabbergasted. He Sui, who was supposed to be an esports big shot, was actually a computer genius?
Seeing her stumped expression, He Sui said proudly and happily, “You didn’t expect this, did you? Hmph, you’re looking down on me. I have an IQof 280. Please pander more to me in the future. I’ll help you solve any problems.”
He Jing was silent for a moment upon hearing that. Then, she asked, “Fourth brother, do you want to have your own computer? I’ll buy one for you.”
Such a talented player should contribute to the country. Why would he play games? It was simply a waste. She would buy it for him even if she had to sell everything so that he could make a name for himself as soon as possible.
Putting everything else aside, she could not bear to see talent being buried!
He Sui was stunned by her sudden generosity and was dumbstruck for a while.
Then, he said coolly, “No, I don’t want you to buy me anything.”
As a man, he should work hard to earn money to buy what he wanted.
He Jing said, “No, you have to have this computer. Tomorrow is the weekend.
We’ll go to Computer City.”
Although they were poor and couldn’t afford a 70,000 yuan computer, 2,000 yuan was no problem. The configuration was a little low, so they could make do with it for the time being.
He Sui turned around. Something clearly shifted in his gaze, but his strong self-esteem did not allow him to nod, so he looked particularly awkward. “I already said, no…”
“You can write me an IOU.” He Jing said, “I know you can definitely return it.”
Young people could often be swayed. Faced with the temptation of a computer, it was very difficult to resist. He Sui did not say anything for a moment. He did not say whether he wanted it or not, but He Jing knew that this matter was in the bag.
Without waiting for He Sui to speak again, He Jing said, “Then it’s a deal – we’ll wake up early tomorrow and go to the city center together.”
He Sui held it in for a long time before saying, “I’ll write an IOU later. I want to make it clear that you wanted to lend me money to purchase it, and not that I wanted to borrow from you. When Dad and Mom ask about it, don’t push the blame to me. And don’t hold this over my head when we argue in future.”
He Jing was flabbergasted. “…Fourth Brother is quite thorough.’
“Of course.” He Sui became complacent again.
He Jing shook her head in amusement. “Since there’s still a little bit left to crack that IP address, then you should first sleep today. I’m going to take a shower.”
He Sui was still immersed in the excitement of getting a new computer the next day. How could he still sleep? He hurriedly said, “Go and wash up. I’ll be done after you finish.’
He Jing obediently went into the toilet.
Fifteen minutes later, He Sui managed to decipher the IP address of the poster.
He Jing was not surprised when she saw that the IP address of the poster on the laptop was from the second grade’s Class Three.
Her guess had been right..
