Chapter 11

The next morning, Yun Sera woke up groggily. She got up and rub her eyes, looking around her. She looks like a tiny rabbit looking for food.

When Jinyi went out of the shower and found her awake, he felt the urge to embrace her. But he stops himself and observes her carefully. She doesn't seem to notice his presence yet.

Clumsily, Sera got off the bed, pulling the blanket behind her on the process. She walks towards the door barefooted, her two-hand holding the blanket behind her.

Jin Jinyi didn't know whether to laugh or cry but watching her like that was too much. She was too adorable to ignore. Wearing a robe, he went out of the room to follow her. She really went to the kitchen dragging the blanket along with her.

"What are you doing here?" Jinyi asks confused, though he really wanted to laugh out loud.

Yun Sera look at him bewildered. She rub her rosy nose and cough a bit.

"I'm hungry," Sera said with her lips pouting pitifully. Of course, she was hungry. She only had porridge last night.

Jinyi called the maids and have them prepared some food for her.

"Jin, Where's the pretty lady yesterday?"

Pretty lady? His brows furrowed when he heard her question. Then he realizes that she must be talking about his mother.

"That's no pretty lady, she's our mother," Jinyi replied casually and pat her head. Her little face instantly went red and her eyes darted like a troubled rabbit.

"Mother? Your mother?" she covered her face in embarrassment after realizing what happened yesterday. She looks at Jinyi, her eyes reddening.

"I... I let her saw something embarrassing. What should I do? Won't she get mad at you?"

"Why would Mom get mad at me?"

"You married a thrash." her reply made his face contorted with fury.

"You're not a thrash, stop saying that to yourself. Sera, you're not a thrash, alright. Those who said that to you are the real thrash." he pulls her into a hug, his arms wrap around her protectively, and pat her head. He breathed into her scent to calm his nerves and hug her tighter.

"Don't ever say that word again."

"But..."

"No buts Sera."

"Oh, alright. Can I eat now?"

"Of course."

After eating her breakfast, they went back to the room. Sera sat on the bed and look at Jin preparing for work. She shook her head and pat her chest again.

Sera what's wrong with you? She started consoling herself. Be strong. Why are you like this again? We got over this, alright. It's alright. It's safe here.

After talking to herself, she turns to look at Jinyi again. This time, he had already picked up his case and went to her.

"Rest here for a while. I already filed your leave. I'll be back this lunch, okay."

"m'kay." she nods her head obediently. Closing her eyes as he put a kiss on her lips. Jinyi watches her little face and pinches her cheeks.

"Be good and sleep."

"Take care Jin," she mumbled and laid down on the bed.

He went out of the room and look at the maids waiting outside.

"Watch Madam while I'm away, don't leave her alone until I came back."

"Yes, Sir."

Sera spent her day on the bed resting. She would wake up in a while and then fell asleep again. Even when Jin Jinyi called that he can't go home at lunch since something cropped up, she was sleeping.

It was almost late in the afternoon when Jinyi get back home and Sera is still fast asleep in the bed.

Her small figure was curled awkwardly on the bed and her face shown a bit of discomfort.

Jinyi called the maids and have them prepare some light food for her and some tonics. Then tried to wake his wife up.

Sera groan and ever so slightly open her drowsy eyes. She felt exhausted and didn't want to wake up. Her eyes darted lazily and saw Jinyi hovering over her.

"You're back."

"Yes, and you've been sleeping the whole day, are you still feeling sick?"

Sera shook her head and Jinyi help her up and sat her on the bed.

"No, just a little tired." she replied, her eyes keep opening and closing.

"But you need to eat something." Jinyi coaxes her and brushes her hair gently.

Sera nods her head and opens her eyes, looking around the room. She saw that it was already turning dark outside and her eyes widened.

"I slept until it was dark? Oh my god. I didn't know. I'm sorry. Did you wait for me that long?"

Jinyi saw her panic and his lip twitch.

"Relax, I only came back, something cropped up in the office and I need to finish it before returning here."

"Oh, Is it? What happen?"

"Just a little problem with one of our construction facilities. There was an accident and they need me to help them settle things. But it's good now. Luckily no one died, but some of our workers were injured. The police were still investigating but there is a possibility of sabotage."

Sera nod her head and started pondering over.

"Were there CCTV's around the area?"

"They already check on it, and it has tampered, that's why they concluded a sabotage."

"Alright, can I get those? I can help you retrieve what was tampered with," she said in a low voice. Jinyi looks at his wife and gently pinch her nose. She looks fatigued and yet here she was asking to work again.

"Not yet, we'll go as soon as you get well."

"I am well rested. I'll be good tomorrow." Sera said with determination.

"Then we'll go tomorrow, tonight, you have to rest."

Sera obediently nods her head and looks at the ceiling.

The next morning, Yun Sera returned to the office with Jinyi. They were casually talking while walking. The employees greeted Jinyi and bow their heads to him. When they pass at the Hr department, Li Shin and Li Xiyi notice the sharp glances coming from the women directed to Sera. Li Xiyi furrowed his brows and look at Sera.

He found her still talking with the boss, ignoring those malicious looks coming from the women. Li Xiyi smirks with disgust at those women. Who were they to glare at the Madam?

If this will be known to the boss, all of them would be started packing and leave the building.

After arriving at the CEO's office, Secretary Zhou came in with a cup of coffee and a pile of folders in her hands.

Secretary Zhou was one of the oldest in the company. She makes sure that everything is ready when the CEO arrives. She was also the one that helps with Sera when she was full of loads.

"Miss Yun, would you like some coffee?" Secretary Zhou asks, her eyes were clear and smiling.

"Thank you, Mrs. Zhou, but I'm good." Yun Sera was always awkward every time Secretary Zhou offered her something. She was not used to someone preparing her with anything at work. She felt it was unnecessary since she was an employee herself.

"Silly girl, I told you to call me Aunt Zhou. You really are so forgetful." secretary laugh and put the folders on her table and help her fix it.

"I'll prepare you some milk if you don't like coffee, how's that sound?" secretary Zhou whispered and she blushed. She really was fond of her.

"Thank you, Aunt Zhou," Sera replied defeatedly. She can't do anything about it. Every time she declines, secretary Zhou will still find a way to make her agree.

Secretary Zhou left giggling and went inside the pantry to prepare her some milk. After it was prepared, she left without a word.

Looking at the glass of milk, Sera's heart warmed up. Nobody did this to her ever since. She smiled and pick the glass and took a sip.

Jinyi looks at her silly smile and finds it too adorable. What Secretary Zhou did was commendable. He should give her a raise or a bonus.

Sera open the first folder and check on it. She started working as soon as she finished her glass of milk while Jin Jinyi was busy himself. The files today doesn't include numerical estimations and calculation. Most of it just needs checking.

After a while, she already finished checking it. Jinyi stood up and went towards her.

"Let's go?" Jinyi called. She nods her head and took her laptop and her bag then went along with Jinyi.

On their way to the lobby, secretary Zhou rush over to them. Yun Sera stop walking and wait for her.

"Silly child, you forgot to bring this." Secretary Zhou handed her a small notecase.

"Thank you, Auntie." Sera was embarrassed.

"Go on, I know you are such a forgetful lass, go ahead CEO Jin is waiting." she pushes her gently. She nods her head and immediately runs towards the waiting CEO.

"What is it?" Jin Jinyi asks her.

"I forgot to bring my notes. Good thing Secretary Zhou saw it." Sera replied.

Jinyi looks at her small frame holding a large laptop case. He reach for it and took the laptop from her. Then he strode to the car as if nothing had happened.

Sera scratch her head and went along.

At the site, Yun Sera look around and saw the mess that happened. There was debris all around, making it look as if someone had thrown a bomb on it.

Jin Jinyi was busy talking to the workers on the site, asking questions to them. While Sera found a place and put her laptop and open it.

She already checks the CCTV footage that has been tampered and she found out that it had already been deleted.

Without any choice, Sera took the initiative to hack on the satellite system near the area.

Her fingers running through her keyboard were nimble and fast. It was so fast that ordinary people would think that she was randomly typing on it without thinking.

Sera has long established a name in the hacker's field without anyone knowing. She goes by the name A01 in the hacker's community. Most of the hackers knew of her but doesn't know her true identity. No one even knows if she's a he or a she.

Breaching the security system at a satellite was illegal but with her identity as A01, the national federation look past it. She was given the privilege to crack, breach any system as long as she don't get past her boundaries.

Before she started hacking into the system. She posted a message that A01 is asking permission to enter it. With this, even if she hack or break, no one will sue or detain her for illegal hacking.

After a few minutes, Sera finally entered the satellite system and downloaded the footage of the events during the accident.

"What are you doing?" Jin Jinyi ask her when he saw her working intently on her computer.

"Oh, I did hack the satellite system to get the footage. If there really was sabotage, they might be thinking that deleting the CCTV footage would let them off the hook." Sera smiled while typing on her computer. Jinyi saw a downloading cue on her monitor and his eyes flash with interest.

"Sera that's illegal."

"I know, but I got permission. Hubby, don't you think your wife is great?" she asks giggling.

Jinyi furrowed his brows hearing the word permission.

"What do you mean?"

"I'll tell you a secret. In the hacker world, your wife is known by the name A01. Of course, A01 got privileges that only an elite hacker had." Sera said in a hushed voice.

Looking at her adorable face, Jinyi had the urge to kiss the girl. If only they are not outside in a public place.

"The national federation, FBI, CIA, they all give me that priveledges. But of course, in times that they need my support, I should willingly cooperate with them and there are limitations on the things I should get and I should not. For example, this. I can get the footage since it was needed for the investigation. " Sera explained further.

Jinyi nods his head and pats her hair as if coaxing a child. Watching her happily explain everything, he could see that she was happy with what she was doing.
