Chapter 7 - A set-up trap

She was lost for years and just as she got back on track and started investigating, their Father woke up, and she had to focus on his recovery.

Now that everything is finally settled, she wants to put all her attention into investigating the incident but with Jiang Xiu's words, she decided to give the girl's words a try.

"Re-Really? You're not tricking me right?" Jiang Yue rolled her eyes at the other girl's question.

"Then let's be in the same class! I'm currently in Class One right now, the teacher is a bit... much, but don't worry, I'll help you catch up with the lessons!" Jiang Xiu excitedly stated as though she couldn't wait to go to school immediately.

Her eyes curved with happiness.

Her sister had been very smart when they were children, to the point that she had finished primary school at the age of 6 and was under a certain Elder's teaching.

But years had passed already and Jiang Yue hadn't gone to school for all these years, so Jiang Xiu thought that her sister might need some help with the high school lessons now.

Jiang Yue's brows furrowed when she heard that but then she nodded.

"Then I'll settle it."

Luo Zhelan opened the car door and Jiang Yue seated herself on his car passenger seat.

"Exact location?" He asked.

"Ningyi Town, two alleys from Narra Avenue. Just drop me there."

"Ningyi Town, Narra Avenue, 36 kilometers. Estimated time of arrival, 43 minutes." A sudden robotic voice can be heard inside the car. Jiang Yue looked at the map that is being shown on the screen.

"Let's stop at a flower shop along the way." Hearing her words, Luo Zhelan now has an idea of what she has to do there.

"Finding flower shop along the way..." The robotic voice once again started. "There are 2 open flower shops, Luxe Creations, and Ellen Flower Shop. Which one do you want to go to? Lu—" Its voice suddenly died down and Luo Zhelan couldn't help but grin when he saw Jiang Yue turn it off with an annoyed look.

"Why are you annoyed with your own creation?" He asked, his tone dripping with interest.

Jiang Yue narrowed her eyes at him, "Who told you that?"

"No one, I simply deduced it. Allico Intelligence is the one who provided the AI technology System to Kharza Automobile." Luo Zhelan explained.

He couldn't help but appreciate the girl sitting by his car.

At a young age, she has already achieved what most couldn't have done in their lifetime.

"Has Young Master Luo forgotten that I'm not the only Software Engineer in Allico Intelligence?"

"Allico Intelligence has always released technologies in different fields but never in medicine field since the start of the company. For you to be able to create the one that you offered to us shows that you are of great importance to them."

Jiang Yue smirked when she heard that. She looked at the man driving and asked, "Can I take it that you are impressed then?"

"Impressed?" He asked, quite doubtful about the word, and then he added, "It's way more than that."

The man glanced at her. His eyes squint lightly, and the corner of his lips raised.

Seeing his expression, Jiang Yue avoided his gaze as her lips pursed.

He got it all right.

The AI system that was used in the car was indeed created by her. With the Kharza Automobile collaboration, Allico Intelligence unprecedentedly grew.

She is indeed of great importance to them but what he didn't guess right was that it was because she owned Allico Intelligence.

It was a small company she started years ago with her own two hands, and now it became one of the leading tech giants in the country.

"Do you want me to go with you?" Luo Zhelan asked to which Jiang Yue shook her head.

They are now at an alley in the town.

"Then I'll wait here."

Jiang Yue got off the car with a small bouquet in her hand. She went inside the alley and walked for 10 minutes, then a small house can be seen in view.

She opened the metal gate, and the sound of the rusty metal grinding rang loudly in the quiet area.

She went ahead to the back of the house where a grave can be seen, written on it was her Older Brother's name, 'Wei'.

She and Jiang Xiu grew up in the care of their father, Jiang Guo, but her Brother Wei also helped took care of her. She can even say that everything she learned had been taught by the man buried in the grave.

He was a genius.

She created Allico Intelligence as a special way to honor his death.

It was her tribute to him.

He was older than her by 8 years and she had always looked up to him. She could only remember calling him Brother Wei since she was a child. She never knew his full name, that's why there is only the word 'Wei' on his grave. And it was today, 8 years ago, that the incident happen.

He was living alone since then and she only comes over to his house every weekend. He would always prepare new things for her to learn. From computer to medicine. His simple house was filled with advanced technology. However, now it remains empty as it was raided after his death, everything was ruined and none were left to spare.

Jiang Yue after that incident started to develop her tendency to seek trouble. Participating in a fight had always been a way for her to let out her emotions. But something happened which made her regret that she lost herself throughout those years and then she started to expand her power and influence. She tried anything that could generate money for her. And she used those to investigate the people who harmed her family but it all ended up on a dead end.

"Brother... I won't be doing anything for now as I promised Jiang Xiu about it. But once I get any clue about those people, I'll do whatever it takes to avenge you and Father."

She will stay in Qingdu City and fulfill her promise to Jiang Xiu. She will stop participating in the investigation but she will continue those that are happening beneath the surface.

She has enough connections for that to make it happen.

And before this, she had laid a trap for certain someone.

Now, Luo Zhelan has taken the bait.
