Cracking the management software was not a difficult task for Du Cheng.
After downloading the management software program uploaded by the auto parts company, Du Cheng had Xin'er switch the computer system directly to LINUX and then begin the cracking process.
This is a protected software. Although Du Cheng can crack it, it will take him much more time.
"Dear Du Cheng, do you want to crack this program? Do you need Xin'er's help?" Seeing Du Cheng begin to analyze the program's protection, Xin'er, who was standing on the right side of the screen, became very interested and asked Du Cheng enthusiastically.
"Oh, Xin'er, you can crack software?" Hearing Xin'er say that, Du Cheng asked in surprise, but he quickly realized how absurd his question had been. With Xin'er's powerful abilities, cracking such a simple software would be a piece of cake.
"Hmph? Do you dare underestimate me? Xin'er can crack such a simple software in just one second." At that moment, a faint smile curved Xin'er's delicate lips, and she continued, "If it weren't for the various anomalies, Xin'er could have directly hacked and controlled this Cypher Nexus. Hmph, then..."
Undoubtedly, Xin'er's smile was quite cunning at that moment, but Du Cheng had no doubt about what Xin'er was saying.
Suddenly, an idea occurred to Du Cheng, and he asked Xin'er, "Xin'er, could you take on this task and complete it yourself?"
"No problem, it's a piece of cake," Xin'er said confidently, quite pleased with herself.
"Good, after I finish this task, you can take over for me and raise my contribution points to 300." Du Cheng possessed a good level of skill. By his own estimation, his current skill level met at least the requirements of a mid-level expert in Cypher Nexus. Therefore, Du Cheng was not very interested in these low-level reward missions.
The mid-level bounty missions would not only allow Du Cheng to earn more money but also provide him with more opportunities for research and practice.
▂▂▂
When Tian He's class ended, Du Cheng had also completed his reward mission and handed over the rest of the tasks to Xin'er.
However, seeing Tian He, who glared at him and then left angrily, Du Cheng could only manage a bitter smile.
"Du Cheng, what's wrong? Did something happen?" Gu Sixin then came out and walked over to Du Cheng, who was about to leave, and asked him with some confusion.
In Gu Sixin's impression and understanding, Du Cheng was undoubtedly a person extremely passionate about learning and also very intelligent. Gu Sixin found it hard to imagine that Du Cheng would do something like he did today.
Seeing Gu Sixin, Du Cheng immediately recalled that thrilling and alluring scene from before. Although Xin'er was just a virtual character, the impact she had on Du Cheng was no less than that of a real person.
"I'm fine, I just felt a little unwell, but I'm fine now." Under these circumstances, how could Du Cheng tell the truth? Besides, Gu Sixin's caring and sincere gaze made Du Cheng's fantasies fade away.
Gu Sixin was relieved to see that Du Cheng was fine. However, she clearly had something else to talk to him about, and said, "By the way, Du Cheng, tomorrow is Saturday. Do you have time? I'd like you to accompany me somewhere."
After saying that, Gu Sixin looked at Du Cheng expectantly, her smile still sweet and charming.
"Where to?" Du Cheng didn't agree immediately, but thought for a moment and then asked.
Seeing that Du Cheng didn't refuse, Gu Sixin's beautiful face immediately lit up with a warm smile, and she said, "Du Cheng, you'll know when the time comes. Don't worry, it won't take up much of your time, and you can leave whenever you want if you don't like it. How about it?"
"Alright, I'll wait for your call then." Du Cheng enjoyed Gu Sixin's smile; it was like a gentle breeze that made him feel warm and even somewhat infatuated.
While Du Cheng and Gu Sixin were chatting, someone stood silently behind the classroom door, separated from them only by a wall. This person was Du Yunlong. Du Yunlong had clearly heard everything Gu Sixin and Du Cheng said.
Du Yunlong snorted coldly, his gaze icy: "You think you can date Sixin? Dream on! Just you wait, I'll ruin things between you two!"
With this in mind, Du Yunlong had already formulated a plan. Given the Du family's power in F City, Du Yunlong knew quite a few people from all walks of life.
▂▂▂
Du Cheng was unaware of Du Yunlong's plans. After leaving the school, Du Cheng went straight to the hospital.
As usual, Du Cheng prepared some simple food in the hospital cafeteria for lunch and then took the elevator directly to the sixteenth floor.
"Hey, Du Cheng, why are you so happy today?" Su Hui had just finished cleaning Du Cheng's mother's body when she saw Du Cheng walk in. Su Hui was a little surprised and asked Du Cheng.
To Su Hui, Du Cheng was a boy who almost never spoke. But today, Du Cheng was wearing a faint smile. Although it was faint, Su Hui clearly perceived it.
"Oh, really? Is it that obvious?" That faint smile, which came from the heart, was so subtle that even Du Cheng himself hadn't noticed it.
"Young people should smile more." Su Hui didn't say much about it. She treated Du Cheng like a son and was very happy to see him happy.
"Come, I made you some chicken soup with red dates. You came just in time, it's still warm. Have it first," Su Hui said, stopping what she was doing and bringing a thermos from a nearby table to Du Cheng, handing it to him as she spoke.
"Thank you, Aunt Hui." Du Cheng knew that refusing would be futile, and over the years Su Hui had brought him many nutritious soups, so he didn't refuse. After thanking her, he took the soup from Su Hui's hand.
"Well, you can eat if you want. Aunt Hui is about to get off work too." Su Hui worked as a private nurse, which was slightly different from regular nurses. She didn't have a fixed schedule, so basically, when Du Cheng arrived, Su Hui could go home.
"Mhm." Du Cheng replied and then walked Su Hui out of the ward, closing the door behind him.
The chicken soup with red dates that Su Hui brought was very delicious. For Du Cheng, who usually only ate simple fast food, it was undoubtedly an exquisite and hearty meal.
After finishing lunch, Du Cheng tidied up briefly, then sat on the edge of the bed and began his routine massage, mentally opening a virtual screen.
"Xin'er, how is it going?" After cracking the management software and pocketing 200 yuan and 20 contribution points, Du Cheng had handed the rest over to Xin'er. Although only a little over an hour had passed, Du Cheng was very much looking forward to it.
"Done. This is a piece of cake. With me, Miss Xin'er, this only takes half an hour." Xin'er's virtual image appeared before Du Cheng. She was wearing the same clothes as Gu Sixin, but her expression was completely opposite. Gu Sixin was beautiful and charming, while Xin'er, in Du Cheng's opinion, was a proud little hen with her head held high.
"It's finished..." Although he was somewhat prepared, Du Cheng was quite astonished by Xin'er's speed. At the same time, Du Cheng also accessed his personal user space and his associated bank account.
In his personal user space, Du Cheng clearly saw that his contribution points had reached 300, but since the update review had not yet been completed, his contribution points could not increase by even half a point.
Meanwhile, his bank account balance had increased from over six hundred to just over three thousand. In just over an hour, Du Cheng's bank account balance had increased by more than two thousand.
Three thousand yuan was a considerable sum for Du Cheng, as his bank savings were mostly less than five hundred yuan, even while living frugally.
With this money, Du Cheng could buy a solar energy receiving device to perform phototherapy.
"Du Cheng, hurry up and do the promotion evaluation. The tasks in the low-level rewards area are too easy. Let me see what the mid-level reward tasks are like." Xin'er urged Du Cheng from the side, telling him that it was like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut for her to handle those low-level reward missions.
"Alright, I'll submit my application right away." Du Cheng nodded and then sent an update request directly to the forum's administration system.
