Young Lady of a Prestigious Family (10)

Ye Shaohua put her luggage in a small apartment not far from University Beijing, and then went to report to the university.

The academician of the computer science department was waiting for her at the entrance of the laboratory. After Shaohua arrived, he took her around the entire laboratory, attracting countless passing people to look back repeatedly, "We finally got you back. What do you think of our lab? Are you interested in staying?"

Talent is very important to a country, especially someone like Ye Shaohua. The academician was very familiar with Gu Jingyun, so he knew what Shaohua was doing in M Country and spared no expense to bring Shaohua over as an exchange student.

"Academician, let's talk about this later. As you know, my Main Camp is all in M Country," Ye Shaohua said with a smile.

"If you're interested, I would directly report it to the higher-ups," the academician continued, giving her another look, "Besides, with Young Master Gu here, are you afraid you can't move your Main Camp back here?"

"He really can't help with this," Ye Shaohua said, though in fact, if she wanted to move her Main Camp back, it wasn't impossible. She just couldn't say this directly to the academician, as she had other things to do. "You probably don't know, after I left, the FBI got involved, and I almost couldn't make it back... However, if you want to cooperate with Xinghe, it's not impossible."

The academician's face, which had been somewhat somber, broke into a smile after hearing Shaohua's last words.

They had sought Ye Shaohua's return mainly for the technological expertise of Xinghe Networks, not expecting that Ye Shaohua would agree so readily.

The academician himself knew that talents like Ye Shaohua were coveted by every country, and if it weren't for desperate measures, M Country would never have allowed her to return.

He wanted to say something to Ye Shaohua, but then Ye Han arrived. The academician gave her a look and had to leave with regret.

Ye Shaohua narrowed her eyes and turned around. Before she could say anything, Ye Han immediately hugged her, resting his dark head on her shoulder.

"What's wrong?" In the span of two years, Ye Han had grown quite a bit taller, towering over Shaohua, who was not considered short among women, reaching just below his chin.

Ye Han also knew this was a public place and let go of Ye Shaohua after a while, his nose and eyes red.

He was supposed to arrange accommodation for Ye Shaohua today, but instead, he found out that Ye Ke had overpowered their father during his illness, completely seizing control of the Ye Family and his own financial resources, and said some strange things to him.

"She said that in the end, I would betray her, so she was just striking first," Ye Han sat on the steps, burying his head in his knees, his voice hoarse, "But how could that be possible? She is my sister after all."

Sometimes, Ye Han felt that Ye Ke's gaze seemed like she wished she could devour him.

Ye Shaohua patted his head and frowned. Ye Han hadn't done anything; this Ye Ke... After being reborn, she must have gone mad?

On the other side, Ye Ke returned to University Beijing.

She had just arrived when she heard a group of people around her discussing the exchange student and learned that the academician had waited especially for her.

Ye Shaohua's information wasn't completely secret. Some people had also managed to dig up something, such as her position as the first-ranked student in the Computer Science department at Stanford and winning countless awards in just two years. An international computer news outlet had even dedicated a special section to her.

Ye Ke had no choice but to take this exchange student seriously. She had received quite a bit of attention and praise these past two years. With such a person suddenly appearing at the school, she subconsciously started comparing herself to Shaohua.

Yet she never expected that at the stairs beside the lab, she would see Ye Shaohua and another senior from the laboratory sitting on the ground, who was being somewhat polite to Shaohua.

Ye Ke suddenly pointed at Ye Shaohua, connecting the dots: "You're the transfer student?"

Perhaps her complexion was too frightening, which caused the senior and the academician who happened to come out to hesitate in their steps.

"Ye Ke, you're here just in time. Let me introduce our lab's new member, classmate Ye Shaohua. Speaking of which, you two share the same surname," the academician pushed up his glasses, looking very pleased, "That's right, Ye Shaohua knows people from Xinghe Networks, and she just helped our lab close a deal for cooperation with them."

He would have been better off not mentioning this, as Ye Ke's expression turned even sourer upon hearing it.

Xinghe Networks had been based in M Country, and Ye Ke couldn't even contact their most peripheral people, yet Ye Shaohua was acquainted with someone from Xinghe?

Everybody in the IT community could not deny the potential of Xinghe. Xinghe was poised to lead the IT world in the future. Only by cooperating with Xinghe could one secure a place in the IT field of the future.

This was especially true for Ye Ke, who knew her own limits. Once her previous life's advantages disappeared, she would be nothing. That's why she was desperate to cooperate with Xinghe.

But how difficult was it to cooperate with Xinghe?

Not to mention that their boss was elusive like a dragon seldom seen, Ye Ke had once attempted to draw Xinghe's attention at a hacker competition but failed because someone named Y beat her to it.

And now, she heard that Ye Shaohua, someone she had never taken seriously, was actually connected to Xinghe Networks?!

This was different from her past life. Wasn't she only skilled at Go? Why had she also learned to program?

Ye Ke's expression changed rapidly, originally believing she had far surpassed Ye Shaohua. Yet unexpectedly, the other party had almost climbed to her shoulder level.

This was not supposed to happen; Ye Ke clenched her fists. She had been reborn for the sole purpose of defeating Ye Shaohua, not to be humiliated under her foot again!

"Ye Shaohua, you surely didn't expect that the Ye Family is now under my control," Ye Ke took a deep breath, moving closer to Shaohua.

Although she hadn't anticipated Ye Shaohua being different from what she had imagined, thinking about the Ye Family under her control brought out a sense of sympathy in Ye Ke.

"So what?" Ye Shaohua squinted her eyes, not understanding Ye Ke's implication.

"So, don't think you can enter our Ye Family through Ye Han. There are many in the world who cooperate with Xinghe Networks, they won't miss one, and think about it, would Xinghe Networks oppose our entire Ye Family just for you?" People in Imperial City who knew of Ye Shaohua's identity were few and far between, so Ye Ke thought Shaohua was just an ordinary student who had caught Xinghe's attention due to her talent.

Now in control of the entire Ye Family and with a net worth in the billions, Ye Ke, amidst anger and fear, felt an inexplicable sense of superiority when facing Ye Shaohua.

"Ye Shaohua, I've decided, I will continue to stay in the lab," Ye Ke stared at Shaohua, her eyes deep.

Originally, she intended to take over the Ye Family's business today, planning to inform the academician that she would temporarily leave the lab to manage the Ye Family and keep it out of Ye Han's hands.

However, due to Ye Shaohua's presence, she abandoned that idea. Shaohua had trampled her underfoot in her past life, and Ye Ke's strong competitive spirit wouldn't allow her to leave the lab at this moment. She had to stay.

Ye Ke's fingernails dug into her palms. She vowed to program all the remaining cutting-edge software in her mind, to bring out all the secret weapons from her past life.
