Concerned

Mo Chou found that there was no one else in the building aside from the two men.

She tied both of them with the rope from earlier while warning them not to kidnap anyone and get into trouble.

She didn't kill them because she had been kidnapped as 'Mo Chou' and their deaths might be linked back to her.

Right when she was exiting the building, several cars stopped in front of the building.

The car in front opened and Liu Dai stepped out of it. He looked slightly panicked but relieved when he finally saw her.

He came forward and started checking for injuries.

Mo Chou grew increasingly confused at his behaviour but said ,"I'm fine, I don't have any injuries".

Liu Dai finally let go of her, the stern look was back in his face.

"Where are the kidnappers and how did you escape? " he asked her.

"Umm..the kidnappers are in the basement" Mo Chou replied quietly while thinking of an excuse on how to explain their condition.

Liu Dai quickly sent his men to search the basement. The men came back with the injured kidnappers.

Liu Dai was shocked seeing the kidnappers state and asked " What happened to them? How did you escape? Did you do this"?

Mo Chou stopped him from firing any more questions.

"I actually learned how to fight during the military training and they were pretty weak so I beat them up and escaped "she replied nervously hoping he would buy it.

Liu Dai only replied with an 'oh'.

He naturally knew of her prowess during military training and reluctantly believed her even though it seemed unbelievable that such a petite girl took on two grown up men by herself and even beat them up to this state.

When Liu Dai had heard that Mo Chou had been kidnapped, he got quite scared but it seemed like all his worries had gone to waste.

She seemed to be perfectly fine.

On the other hand, Mo Chou was speechless seeing Liu Dai's concern. She didn't understand why he was this concerned as she was supposed to be the villainess and hated by Liu Dai.

She recalled that the villainess was also kidnapped in the novel but Liu Dai was not overly concerned about her.

He had only rescued her because of her parents. With questions swirling in her mind, Mo Chou went home with Liu Dai.

Meanwhile in the Lu enterprise main building

Lu Jinhai was listening to the report of his search for the mysterious person. His main secretary Huo Jichen was leading the search.

They had found that the 'guy' had visited the black market recently and bought weapons but when they tried to trace 'his' credit card , they couldn't find any information.

Even their best hackers couldn't find anything.

This made them feel threatened and they searched even more intensely. They finally found the driver of the taxi which 'the woman' had taken home and interrogated him.

They found that she had dropped off at the Liu mansion but they still couldn't find out who this person was .

It would be impossible for Liu Dai to disguise himself as a woman just to kill a puny gangster and as far as they knew, Liu Dai's stepsister was a spoilt brat with no noticeable talents.

Lu Jinhai read the reports and decided to run and investigation on Mo Chou.

The investigation results showed that Mo Chou was a normal person with no noticeable talents but what caught Lu Jinhai's interest was the recent events as Mo Chou had suddenly started acting 'weird'.

She had improved her academics getting first place in the entrance exams and even performed exceptionally well during the difficult military training.

He got interested in Mo Chou as his instincts told him that she was not an ordinary person and his instincts had always been right and never wrong.

"Make a fake identity for me and enrol me in the Capital University in the buisness department" Lu Jinhai instructed his secretary.

Huo Jichen was a little flabbergasted by his abrupt decision.

While he wanted to cry thinking about all the extra work he would have to do, Lu Jinhai was getting excited thinking about the 'chase'.

In the Liu residence

Mo Chou was stuck in an awkward situation. Liu Dai had called her for dinner and It was the first time she had sat down for dinner with Liu Dai.

Both of them were trying to make small talk but couldn't think of a common topic.

Finally, Liu Dai cleared his throat and said "I have arranged some bodyguards for you . They will escort you to and from University."

Mo Chou tried to argue by saying that she could take care of herself but Liu Dai shot down the argument by saying that this was their parents' wish.

Mo Chou could only agree as they would not particularly interfere with her life. The rest of the dinner was silent and Mo Chou excused herself early just to escape from the awkwardness.

The university had given the students a vacation for a full week.

As Mo Chou was in a hurry to earn money, she decided she should spend the rest of the week doing so.

There were some missions in the Assassin organisation but none of them caught her interest so she decided to do the next best thing.

She had the knowledge on which companies would be the most successful in the future. They were simply small startups now so she decided to invest the money she had earned from the mission to buy shares of those companies.

She was able to buy quite a lot since the shares were currently quite cheap. Mo Chou also downloaded some games and started playing them.

There were plenty of games which could earn her money. She got the hang of the game after playing it a few times no matter what game it was.

If the people from the gaming industry saw her rapid improvement, they would not have believed their eyes.

She went from being a noob to being a pro very quickly. Mo Chou spent the whole week playing games and improving her physical strength.
