I muttered, "I did manage to hack into the computer but I was kicked out. And then the system self-destructed. You can't blame me for that. No one could stop the system from self-destructing. I was only taking a look, I didn't do anything else. Why did you have to destroy the system? What a shame!"
Tong Le was furious. "I... If I don't beat some sense into you, my name is not Tong Le. You stubborn child, you. Come back here!" He chased after me with a rolling pin.
I screamed and ran.
Jing Tian grabbed the rampaging Tong Le. "I'll fix the firewall for you!"
Tong Le stopped and he turned to look at Jing Tian. Jing Tian held him wordlessly.
Tong Le squeezed through his teeth. "You have to repair the database! Recover the perimeter and then build an extra firewall!" He was negotiating terms!
"Deal!" Jing Tian nodded.
Erm, what is happening? That's all? Jing Tian has saved me from a beating?
