Xu Lei had black lines all over his face. Every single time Yan Qing Shan was able to retort in whatever language he used. She seemed to be as well-versed as he is in languages. At this rate, he could only count that this loss was already inevitable.
He sighed as he spoke resignedly in the last language he knew.
"It looks like you'll be winning again, Miss Yan. My confidence has all but crumbled."
Xu Lei said in English with his tone dreadfully sullen. Yan Qing Shan gave him a small smile in return and replied in a crisp British accented English.
"Being fluent in 15 major languages is already a feat on its own, Mr. Xu. No need to be so glum about it. It's my mistake for not informing you that I am well-versed in 22."
She said indifferently. Xu Lei went slackjawed. If he was a master linguist, Yan Qing Shan was a damn polyglot. He practically dug his own grave challenging her in languages.
He gave out a helpless laugh while he gazed admiringly at the woman who was full of surprises.
"Oh, you guys are done? Who won?"
Jia Wei Ren the oblivious asked when he noticed that the two have already stopped talking. They couldn't handle the jibberish so they all gladly ignored both Xu Lei and Yan Qing Shan a while ago. Xu Lei gave him an exasperated look and then replied defeatedly.
"Yeah. We're done. Yan Qing Shan won."
After replying to Jia Wei Ren, Xu Lei weakly slumped to a nearby settee. Despite being gracious about it, he couldn't help the feeling of defeat wash over him. He resolved to learn even more harder from then on.
The other aces, after Xu Lei's statement, has become numbed at this point. Somehow, they decided that they were all merely going through the motions and determining Yan Qing Shan's abilities. They have long acknowledged her.
So far, Yan Qing Shan has defeated three of the Aces. There were five of them more in line. She sighed impatiently. Her eyes questioned the remaining ones.
Qin Jiran grinned. He had been waiting for his turn. He was really curious about Yan Qing Shan. Not many people knew about his identity as Zeus. Even the other Aces were unaware until he told them himself. He was sure that if she wasn't from the underworld then it was possible that she was a fellow hacker.
"Do you have a laptop? We'll compete in hacking. You'll need one."
He said excitedly. Yan Qing Shan looked at him pointedly.
"What will we be hacking?"
She somehow expected that Qin Jiran would be challenging her to a hacking face-off. But she doesn't really care that much. Though, Yan Qing Shan wasn't as good as Yui, she was still pretty efficient and could possibly fight on par with him.
"Just the Central Investigation Bureau. Pretty easy, don't you think?"
Yan Qing Shan scoffed. Pretty easy, her foot. If the Central Investigation Bureau's mainframe was that easy to hack then many would have done so. Its anti-hacking system was equal with the Pentagon and the FBI. Though, it may still be a walk in the park for her, Qin Jiran, and Yui. Still, there weren't many people who were as deviant as them.
"Fine. I'll use my pc tablet. I don't have a laptop."
Qin Jiran looked at her weirdly. She blinked at him innocently. Yan Qing Shan and Yui never really used laptops even in hacking. The both of them prefer the handy pc tablet. Aside from the modified ones that Yui makes for her, she wasn't fond of laptops. She found them bulky. And thus purposely left hers at Ying Yue Garden.
"Are you sure, you'll use a tablet? Are you insane?"
The man's tone increased a pitch. Unknown to Yan Qing Shan, Qin Jiran has every right to be surprised. Compared to a laptop, a tablet's specs, half the time, were lower. Thus, using one in hacking would double the difficulty in cracking security mainframes.
Qin Jiran was incredulous. If Yan Qing Shan really succeeded in hacking the Central Investigation Bureau through a tablet, then what would that make him, the proclaimed number one hacker? A freaking gamer?
