Chapter 227: Evil Or Good?
Rong Yue's brows arched upwards, but she didn't say a word. Mo Yifan took it as a signal to continue.
"Your only competitor is my DRK, but I have recently gotten quite bored of it. Previously, I sent you the blueprint so they could have similar designs…"
Even though she said nothing, one of the fingers on her left hand jerked voluntarily and betrayed her emotions.
"I need your computing skills to bypass a certain firewall. As long as you can help me. All of Drk would be handed over to you."
The offer was tempting, and even Rong Yue couldn't help but glance at him twice to be sure he was serious.
Drk had an endless supply of stones and sold them to wholesalers. But their most impressive part was the brand they had created among the people.
Every single one of their collections would sell out in less than a week after its release date.
Rong Yue was confident that the profit couldn't be small.
But even though she was tempted, she still pushed it away.
"Mr Mo, I don't do business with people in the underworld business. Your hands are stained with a different type of blood."
She could never forget the miserable state that Song Jian had been in when she went to save him.
Some people had their hands stained to protect themselves and the things they cherished from the evildoers.
But Mo Yifan hadn't even let a young boy like Song Jian go. It could be said that in her heart, he had no redemption.
As she said this, she stood up as she felt the conversation was over.
"Aren't you the rising queen of the dark web? Even if your hands are clean now because you are laying foundations. Who is to say that they would remain clean till the end."
The room was quiet as Rong Yue realised that Mo Yifan had done a very thorough check on her.
He most certainly knew about her Fox Alliance in the Dark Web. While she didn't like him knowing, it was also not enough to change her mind.
"Mr Mo, even if they are stained with blood, it would be because I'm purging the world of its evils. If you are one of the evils, I won't hold back."
Her words were firm and clear, making Mo Yifan unable to reply until Rong Yue left the room.
As soon as she left, his cold and blank face creased over as hints of pain gleamed in his eyes.
He leaned back in his seat while his face had a self-deprecating smile.
"Hehe, is there any human that doesn't hold evil in them?"
The words sounded like he was trying to defend his own life's path. But the intense pain and his clenched fists created a contrasting picture.
Clearly, even he, as a person, held so many conflicts in his heart.
While he was lost in his mind, Rong Yue met up with Qin Yichen.
"Congratulations," he didn't hold back this time and pulled her into his embrace tightly.
From when she had found out the truth about her mother up until now, he had been extremely worried but couldn't rush over since it was such a sensitive time.
"I came all the way here, and I'm only seeing you now. What does that scoundrel want from you?"
As they walked, he wrapped his hands around her waist to pull her into his embrace, and even when his legs were longer than hers by a lot, he walked at her pace so that their steps were in sync.
Rong Yue also allowed him to do anything he wanted as they already had a silent agreement with each other.
As she explained things to him, Qin Yichen's brows crinkled a little. Even though she didn't tell him about Mo Yifan knowing about the Fox Alliance. Qin Yichen knew that Mo Yifan already knew that Rong Yue had excellent computer skills.
"Taking Drk from him isn't such a bad idea. If he comes again. Then ask him what he wants first."
Like always, when they got to the car, there was a small thermal box. But this time, Qin Yichen was driving so he made her select what she wanted before returning the box and then starting the car.
The car ride was silent, and Rong Yue only broke the silence when she saw a certain news.
"Ehn… madam Tong has been taken to prison?"
"She could have gone quietly, but their family insisted on going to court."
"Tong Yang's examination result has been scraped. If she wants to attend university, she can only wait one more year or leave the country."
Even though she didn't follow up on the matter, Qin Yichen had taken care of each one of them from his end.
Even Tong Yang's father and brother had also had their share of 'bad luck', but he didn't bother to tell her. After all, they were just some insignificant people.

While the both of them chatted about random things, a certain grandmaster was busy preparing for a press conference.
"Wang Lei, adjust the tie. Isn't it a bit too tight?" Grandmaster complained as he pulled the necktie down one more time.
As he had lived the life of a creative and would hardly ever take on things like press conferences or public meetings, he wasn't used to dressing formally.
"Grandfather, why do you have to be the one to make the announcement? It's okay if the others do it, right?" Wang An argued from the side.
As all of them were boys, picking outfits for over an hour was really not something they wanted to do.
"Humph! What do you know? Can't you see that your little sister was bullied by some brat? She even had the guts to say that she declined to be my disciple. Is she even worthy of being my maidservant?"
Upon hearing this, the three brothers kept quiet. Other than their grandfather, they had also been annoyed when they found out what happened online.
They were even the ones to show their grandfather, so they didn't mind if he wanted to defend her.
"It's good for the world to know I have a disciple now. That way, when it's time for the competition, they won't be wondering who she is."
Also, he had one more reason, if he told the world publicly that Rong Yue was his student, he knew that it would be very difficult for her to refuse the competition.
