Brain Damaged

"How's the situation with Xu Mo going?"

Lin Fan's face darkened as he changed the subject, hoping to hear some good news.

The entire court of officials hesitated, stammering.

It was Gao Liming's turn to feel awkward.

"Dragon King, my task... it's impossible to complete now!"

Someone mentioned that there was interference, and it was someone from your Dragon King Hall.

I can't afford to offend them.

I only have one life, after all.

"Dragon King, I can't handle Xu Mo's matter anymore. You'll have to find someone else."

"Huh? What do you mean? When have I ever shortchanged you on the rewards I promised? Is this how you repay me?"

Lin Fan's displeased voice came through.

Who wouldn't want the reward?

But An Youyi showed up out of nowhere. What could I do? I'm just as desperate!

Gao Liming: "My abilities are limited. I really can't do it."

Lin Fan's mouth twitched. Is this what they call a top-tier agent? (High-tech Special Operations Specialist)

Can't even handle a simple task like this.

What good are you to me?

Patience!!!!

Lin Fan decided to lower his expectations.

"How about the situation with Red Rose? Any progress there?"

He had been played.

Of course, he wanted immediate revenge.

As the saying goes—an eye for an eye!

This Dragon King is really incompetent!!!

The conversation was dead in the water.

He said what shouldn't have been said and left out what should have been said.

Gao Liming didn't know how to respond.

He couldn't admit that he was too weak.

He hadn't gathered any useful information.

Instead, he had been tricked by Red Rose.

Gao Liming's face turned red, and he coughed. "Dragon King, that Red Rose is something else. How about you give me some more time? I'll make sure she's dealt with properly."

What?

Dealt with properly?

Are you playing word games with me?

I asked about the progress.

Not for you to spout nonsense!

"So, you don't have any substantial progress to report?"

Lin Fan narrowed his eyes.

Repeated setbacks.

Left him seething with anger.

You can pretend for a while, but not forever.

Gao Liming laid his cards on the table. He wasn't going to pretend anymore.

"Red Rose is more skilled than I am. She's already hacked into the defense system I set up, but she didn't get any particularly useful information from me."

"If the Dragon King has other experts who can replace me, feel free to do so."

"I'll return the reward in full. I won't take a single penny."

Gao Liming spoke with righteous indignation.

With unyielding resolve.

Making Lin Fan question his choices in life.

"Really? There's someone even the 'Hacker Prince' Pangolin can't handle? And I just happened to run into them?"

"Could it really be such a coincidence?"

Lin Fan suddenly thought of another possibility.

"Could they have conspired together to trick me?"

But that idea was too absurd.

He immediately dismissed the thought.

Gao Liming and Red Rose didn't know each other.

How could they have conspired?

Impossible!

Absolutely impossible!

"Keep investigating."

After a long pause.

Lin Fan finally managed to say those words.

Aside from Gao Liming.

He didn't know many other hackers who were more skilled than Gao Liming.

If Gao Liming couldn't handle Red Rose.

Anyone else he sent would just be easy prey for her.

Huh????

Gao Liming had already prepared himself to be 'fired.'

Why was he suddenly being asked to continue?

This is tough.

But then again.

Even he had suffered at Red Rose's hands.

Anyone else would likely fare no better.

If Lin Fan had a suitable replacement.

He would have replaced Gao Liming long ago.

"Alright, alright."

Gao Liming couldn't help but smile.

He was a man who held grudges.

Red Rose had made him lose face.

He was determined to get even.

Otherwise, how could he continue to operate in this circle?

Meanwhile, on the other side.

Xu Mo had finished filming his scenes for the day. After all, when it was his turn to act.

He could deliver his lines in one take.

No matter how difficult the scene was.

No matter how many lines he had to deliver.

Xu Mo could handle it with ease.

Today, An Youyi had been taken away by Xu Shi.

So, the passenger seat of his sports car was empty.

As for Xu Mo's mood, it couldn't be better.

That female Dragon King was like a surveillance camera.

It was just too uncomfortable.

Xu Mo drove his sports car aimlessly through the streets.

Just cruising around.

As he was making a U-turn near a Meijia Convenience Store.

Suddenly, an electric scooter came speeding towards him at lightning speed.

Holy cow!

Xu Mo was stunned.

Seeing this.

He was completely shocked.

Luckily, he wasn't turning too fast.

About 20 km/h.

So, he could easily brake.

But the woman on the electric scooter wasn't so lucky!

Bang------

Car versus scooter.

The scooter lost.

The woman was thrown off due to inertia.

The snacks and soda hanging from the scooter scattered all over the ground.

Through the windshield.

Xu Mo caught a glimpse of the woman's face.

She had delicate features and a pretty face.

Wearing a loose, childlike cartoon-themed fleece pajama set.

After all, she was lying on the hood of his car.

That scooter was really moving!

Xu Mo pulled the handbrake and quickly got out of the car.

The intersection was so wide.

How could they have collided?

This was a first for Xu Mo.

"Miss, are you okay? Do you need to go to the hospital?"

Xu Mo was nervous as hell!

Money was one thing.

But a life was at stake.

Gao Liyuan was miserable!!!!

She had forgotten to stock up on imported soda.

So, she went to the nearest convenience store to buy some.

Along with her favorite snacks.

And then this happened.

Who could she complain to?

Well...

It had something to do with how fast she was riding.

She couldn't brake in time!

But the driver wasn't entirely blameless either!

Gao Liyuan's beautiful eyes widened, "Couldn't you have honked before turning?"

This area is near a school; honking is prohibited.

Xu Mo: o(╥﹏╥)o

He wanted to explain.

But Gao Liyuan didn't even glance at him.

Hearing the sound of something fizzing on the ground.

She quickly jumped off the hood.

Her face froze, showing a pained expression.

"Ah... my soda, the bottle's broken..."

"I only took one sip..."

"And my snacks, my chicken feet, my chips..."

[Oh no, did she hit her head or something?]

There's one more chapter, it'll be out in about forty minutes.
