"Purple Charm, here's twenty million. Help me hack into the computer defense system of the Zhusong Group."
"No way!" refused Fabian bluntly. Although he was a hacker, he still had his own code of professional ethics.
"How about I can make sure that you won't have to go to any blind dates in the following year?"
"Okay, deal!"
In just a few hours, the security firewall of the Zhusong Group's computer system was out of function after the intrusion of a hacker.
In the evening, the media reported that a hacker had intruded the computer system of the Zhusong Group and stolen some confidential files, which resulted in a great loss for the company. It was said that the company might go bankrupt because of this...
In the meeting room of the Zhusong Group
It was already midnight. A woman dressed in a set of black Western suit sat on the CEO's seat and plugged a USB memory stick into her laptop.
Soon enough, a loud noise followed. "Bang!" The latest version of the Macbook was on the floor, smashed into pieces.
It was the first time for all the senior executives to see their CEO get so furious. They were all frightened of this woman, even though she was just in her thirties.
"We have gone through so many difficulties ever since my grandmother founded the Zhusong Group. We have survived lots of cruel competitions and even the economic crisis, but now, we are defeated because of the intrusion of a hacker! What a joke! It's so humiliating. How are you guys going to tell the public ?" The woman scolded sternly as she glared at the technology manager with her beautiful eyes.
The young technology manager shrank his neck and explained himself in a low voice, "Miss You, the computer system was hacked unexpectedly and in a very crafty way. Only one hacker is capable of doing something like this in the world. If our company has become his target, we can do nothing to stop him..."
"Who's that ?" the woman asked inquisitively.
This woman was Cathy You, thirty years old. At the age of fifteen, she started to help her mother and grandmother manage the company. Since then, she had been learning how to run the company. Five years ago, she became the new CEO of the company. She had never experienced such humiliation before.
She wasn't going to let the person who had done such a thing to destroy her company, off easily.
The manager hesitated and said, "The hacker with such great skills is none other than the man nicknamed, Purple Charm. But... this wasn't like something he would normally do."
"Who is Purple Charm?" Cathy asked confusedly.
"Purple Charm is a very mysterious man. It is said that he has a pair of purple eyes. Some time ago, people had seen a man with purple eyes attending Arvin Gu and Angela Si's wedding ceremony. We are not sure whether that man was Purple Charm or not..."
"What's his real name?" asked Cathy.
"Fabian Li, but his original name is Jeffery Li, " answered the manager.
Cathy squinted her eyes and continued to ask, "So which name does he usually go by? Fabian Li or Jeffery Li?"
But, this was not important, since they were the same person.
In the following few days, Cathy completely devoted herself to saving her company. She kept so busy that she only managed to sleep for two or three hours every day.
One quiet night, a group of young people walked out of the back door of a bar.
"Jeffery, drive Leda back home. She's drunk, " a bald man said as he pushed the drunk woman in his arms towards a young man.
The young man, who was wearing an ear stud, a denim jacket and a pair of sneakers, caught the woman from the bald man. He frowned and refused, "I am not familiar with her. I am not driving her back."
He pushed the woman back to the bald man. Then he got on his motorbike and sped away, ignoring him.
"Hey... Jeffery..." Before the bald man could even finish his words, Jeffery Li had already sped away into the distance.
The bald man hurled abuse at him, "Damn! Who does he think he is? The Boss? Isn't he just a bartender?" What a bad attitude! What makes him so proud of himself? Fuck, leave him alone!"
"Yes, leader!" The other young men obediently replied in unison.
It was already two o'clock in the morning. There was hardly any car on the road. The black motorbike was speeding fast all the way until it approached a crossroad and began to slow down as the traffic light had turned red.
Then the traffic light turned green, and the motorbike accelerated again. On one turn, a car suddenly came at him out from nowhere. Jeffery quickly stepped on the brake.
Luckily, his motorbike had good braking efficiency, so the motorbike stopped steadily after turning a circle there.
Unfortunately, the car driver failed to brake in time, so the car crashed onto Jeffery's motorbike.
As the accident happened all of a sudden, Jeffery wasn't able to dodge away in time and was knocked down onto the ground.
"Oh, my god! I am so sorry. Are you okay?" The door opened. A woman came out and asked anxiously.
She helped Jeffery stand up from the ground. Jeffery was so hurt that he clenched his teeth and massaged his aching arm. Luckily, it was nothing serious, just a minor bruise.
He raised his head and looked at the crossroad and found that there was no traffic light. He didn't want to waste time arguing with a woman, so he waved his hand at her and said, "Nothing serious."
Without glancing at her, he ignored the woman and went straight to check his motorbike.
The motorbike's headlights were smashed into pieces, and the body of the motorbike was scraped off some of the paint. This was his most favourite motorbike.
Looking at the damage on his motorbike, Jeffery got angry and turned around to remind the woman, "Next time, drive your car slowly!"
But Jeffery was shocked right after he finished his words, Because the woman standing in front of him wasn't normal in every way...
She was dressed in a long, white dress that reached up to her ankles. Her black and long straight hair fell over her shoulders. Her face was completely pale, her lips were painted blood red and her eyebrows were in dark black. With dark circles under her eyes, she stared at Jeffery.
... If it were somebody else standing in front of this woman now, the person would've been running away, frightened for his life.
However, it was Jeffery Li who was facing her.
Why wasn't Jeffery scared of this ghost-like woman?
If she knew what kind of strange place he was living in, she would know the reason.
So where was Jeffery living?
He was living in a castle.
Where was his castle located?
It was in a remote suburban district which was surrounded by large and thick forests. And near the castle, there was a martyrs cemetery.
When she heard Jeffery complaining, the woman instantly burst into tears and cried louder and louder. "Waah...waah... I am just hurrying to the cemetery. Please don't be angry at me... waah...waah..."
