Chapter 214 - 214 Position on the Rankings214 Position on the Rankings
“You actually know about the hacker rankings? Those who aren’t deeply involved in this field definitely won’t know.” A hint of change in expression flashed across Zhou Xuan’s eyes. “Besides, I’ve never dared to underestimate someone like Miss Shan. I’ve never seen anyone with such a mind when she was just an adult.”
“Then I’ll take it that Young Master Zhou’s words are a compliment.” Shan Yue’s lips curled slightly, drawing a perfect arc. “As for that hacker ranking, it’s not a rare thing. Just ask around in a large family and you’ll definitely hear about it.”
“But in Miss Shan’s words just now, you said that He Sheng’s ranking is not qualified.” Zhou Xuan casually picked up the teacup in front of him. The faint fragrance of tea and slowly rising smoke spread from Zhou Xuan’s thin lips and nose. “Then may I ask what position would Miss Shan think it’s qualified?”

Zhou Xuan raised his lips and glanced sideways, revealing his faintly discernible jawline. “Then according to you, if you can easily find out what He Sheng can’t, your skills should be more than a little better than He Sheng’s, right?”
Shan Yue did not hide it either. “You can interpret it that way.”
“Then I’m sure you know about Zero.”
The silence of “Zero” lasted for nearly a year. The first time it appeared a year later was in S City. At that time, Shan Yue happened to save Zhou Yang first and then started to stand out in S City. The combination of these two could not help but make people think too much.
“Of course I know. She’s ranked first on the hacker rankings for many years. No one has ever been able to shake her position, let alone lose.” Shan Yue deliberately pretended not to know. “Who doesn’t know her?”
“Rumor has it that Zero is a woman. After you saved Zhou Yang, she appeared in S City.” Zhou Xuan’s gaze became firm, emitting waves of oppression. “Do you know her? Or are you her?”
“Hahaha, Young Master Zhou, what kind of joke is this?” The smile on Shan Yue’s lips deepened. “How can I be Zero? You think too highly of me.”
A trace of calmness appeared in Zhou Xuan’s eyes as he smiled. “But the ability and maturity Miss Shan displayed doesn’t seem to be something you can have at your age.”
The curve of Shan Yue’s lips revealed a hint of mockery. “Didn’t Young Master Zhou become as steady as you are now because you stepped into business competition early and fought all the way? Everyone will definitely gain something after experiencing different things.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Is it really as you say?” Zhou Xuan’s eyes did not capture the change in Shan Yue’s expression. “Then I hope I overestimated you.”
Shan Yue waved the teacup in her hand. “Is there anything else, President Zhou? If not, go back early.”
Zhou Xuan thought for a moment and slowly said, “There’s nothing else. However, as one of the shareholders of the project, you can raise any suggestions you have.”
“No problem. I will.”
With that, Zhou Xuan left the room.
Although Shan Yue was denying his guess, Zhou Xuan still sensed something abnormal from her tone when she said He Sheng. Only with the absolute suppression of technology could one say such things so freely. Zhou Xuan knew that she must be hiding something.
After returning to his room, Zhou Xuan immediately called He Sheng. “Tell the Zhou family in Federation City to find a reason to go to the Shan Yue family to investigate the situation. Don’t expose your identity and get information from her family. If I’m not wrong, she must be hiding something from us.”
“Understood, President Zhou. I’ll do it immediately.”
The birdsong outside the window slowly quietened down. As the night deepened, the Vienna Hotel fell into silence.
