Entangled: Crisscross Chapter 8

"Sera, I am so sorry for calling you this time. I know you are busy looking for jobs, but this is something that I cannot solve without you," Xu Je'er mumbled as she led Sera into the staff entrance. "I already chase away the person guarding the place and would delete the footage later after you left so, you don't need to worry about your safety."
This made Sera stare at Je'er, she couldn't help but wonder what kind of mess did the woman made this time. Her eyes only met with Je'er's shrugged.
"Sera, I know you are a trustworthy person as long as the price is right, so I called you to fix this problem for me."
"Can you tell me about it first? How sure are you I can fix it for you?"
"You see… I am now working in the Cybersecurity of Quinn Media." Je'er said, her voice almost like a whisper.
"You aren't qualified for a job like that." First, Xu Je'er's course had nothing to do with Cybersecurity. Second, she had no experience in tackling codes. She was clearly not qualified for this job. Sera immediately knew that Xu Je'er must have used her connection to get in this time.
"Ai, you won't understand it even if I tell you. However, I was looking for a vacant job in Quinn Media and this is the only vacant one. So I got it. Of course, I am planning to quit after I see Young Master Quinn's real countenance."
This made Sera stopped walking. She looked at the love crazed smile on Xu Je'er's face. "Why would you want to see him?"
"Simple! He is the richest man in Navut Region! My family would surely try to propose marriage! I am so beautiful! What if he agrees to marry me?" Xu Je'er said. "But how could I marry someone I haven't seen before?"

"So… what do you want me to do? Are we going to hack into the CCTV of his office? I'm afraid— "
"Aish… I know! I know you can't do that here! It will definitely get us in trouble."
"As long as you know," Sera continued walking. "I heard that Mr. Quinn doesn't like other people seeing him. If he knows that you are scheming to— "
"I know, right!? That's why you have to help me do something or I will get in trouble." After a few seconds, they finally arrived in a room full of CCTV and computers. "It's lunchtime, and I made everyone leave this place. Here… come here…"
'What are you trying to do?" Sera asked, calmly as she examined the room. It was a big space, probably three times bigger than her two-bedroom apartment. There were about twenty computers in the space. Across them was a gigantic screen that shows over twenty CCTV footage.
"I want to hack into their system and change my files. Make it like yours."
"Huh?" Sera's attention was pulled back to the current situation. "You wanted me to hack into their system? But that is— "
'Can you do it or not?"
"Of course I can, but why would you want to change your information? If they found out the truth then…"
"This is why you are going to change the information from the university, too. Or just create some sort of different persona for me." Xu Je'er patted one of the computers. "If I don't do this, then they would know who I am. You know, I have to tell my parents that I left for abroad and I will be gone for the next three months. However, they got angry and cut off all of my credit cards. Right now, I have no choice but to hire you as your services are cheaper than other people that I met before. Plus, you are quite professional that would surely keep this secret for me."

Sera stared at Xu Je'er, trying to see where did her brains go. Did it run away after she graduated from college? Was it too tired to deal with this woman's stupidity? A sigh escaped her lips. In doing business, her motto was 'As long as the price is right'. And she had been using this motto in everything that she does. "Are you sure you want to do this? I mean… can't you ask your parents to give you a picture before they asked for a marriage alliance? Moreover, I don't think your parents will let you marry an old man."
"What do you mean?"
Sera let out another sigh before she leaned towards Je'er. "I heard that the President of Quinn Media is actually an ugly man with lots of scars on his face. Even technology can't heal these scars. So, he became afraid to meet other people."
Xu Je'er took a few seconds to process her words before she widened her eyes. "Truly?"
"I don't know! These are just rumors." Sera shrugged, unaware that her words would soon reach the ears of the other socialite in the city. "Or else, why would he refuse to see anyone? Two things, it's either he is really ugly with a scarred face or he did something wrong in the past and is scared that someone will recognize him. Something wrong like… you know maybe murder or kidnapping. He must be a wanted criminal."
Xu Je'er shivered. While Sera's words sounded too far-fetched, it was actually an excellent explanation. "You— "
"Shh…" Sera looked to her left and right as she put a finger on her lips. "Don't tell anyone else about this matter. Who knows what he will do if he knows we found out his secret?"
"Sera… this is a very… Oh my god! I have to convince my parents not to propose marriage to this person!" Xu Je'er's face was so pale, her eyes wide as she opened her phone. However, before she could dial a number, Sera already stopped her.
"Hey, are you a lunatic? You told your parents that you will go abroad and now you want to call them?"
This made Je'er realized the absurdity of her actions. "Then… Then what can I do?"
"Simple!" Sera smiled. "Here's… what you can do to solve this problem."
