Chapter 872: Chapter 872

Chapter 24: Just like him, he created his own shopping platform at a young age, relying on confidence and effort.

"Then give it a try! Conditions are negotiable!"

Yan Yuan saw that he agreed, so she opened her computer and connected to the CLA’s backend system.

Tang Xirui looked at Yan Yuan, despite her youth, she worked very diligently.

Those fingers as smooth as diamonds danced quickly across the keyboard, and soon the computer was filled with countless lines of code.

He couldn’t understand it, and even felt the letters and numbers made his eyes blur.

After a good half an hour, Yan Yuan’s eyes remained fixed on the computer as her fingers kept moving.

When her computer screen started flashing red text, she finally stopped what she was doing, looked up at Tang Xirui, and said, "Your platform’s app often stalls, even updates can’t fix such bugs."

Tang Xirui widened his eyes in disbelief, "You even know that?"

However, this is the app’s problem, and many users already knew. After thinking it over, he felt it wasn’t a big deal that Yan Yuan was aware.

"Not only that, due to the system’s imperfection, users’ private information is easily accessible. Some passwords are even leaked!"

Tang Xirui’s expression was serious. The issues Yan Yuan mentioned had been complained about by customers a few days ago.

He thought it was the customer’s own fault for leaking the information and didn’t expect Yan Yuan to say his system was flawed.

"What’s going on here?"

Yan Yuan didn’t beat around the bush. She pointed to the code on the computer and said, "Who created this system? Due to negligence during installation, some codes are incomplete, putting parts of the software in a dormant state, hence the firewall is lacking. The recurring issue with junk ads means the system is infected by a virus that is highly contagious. It must be fixed from the root."

"How do we fix this? This is an online platform. Engineers have said similar things before, but despite using various methods to remove the virus, nothing worked." Tang Xirui’s face was stern, and he was anxious. Continuing would definitely impact the company’s reputation.

During a period of career growth, the platform is stable now, and he wants to expand his business. If he can’t solve this issue, expanding the business is out of the question.

Yan Yuan, seeing his anxiety, told him, "Stay calm. Didn’t I say I’d figure it out for you in minutes? I just pointed out the root cause. Now I’ll fix it for you."

"How will you do it?" Tang Xirui moved closer to Yan Yuan, eager to help her with the computer.

Seeing his overly anxious expression, Yan Yuan was speechless. With him being so close, how could she work?

"Mr. Tang, could you get me a glass of water? Also, even if you dig into the computer, you wouldn’t understand. So, keep your distance."

Realizing his own awkwardness, Tang Xirui quickly went to the door and asked Diamonds to make tea for Yan Yuan.

He then returned to Yan Yuan’s side, observing her work from afar.

Yan Yuan deleted all the red code and then filled them in with the correct ones.

The system itself wasn’t an issue, let alone as it was developed by the technology center of M country. It was just errors during installation that created vulnerabilities in the platform.

She had to patch the vulnerabilities first, perfect the system, then proceed with virus cleanup, strong virus removal, and strengthening the firewall.

Only then would CLA truly be on the right track.

Yan Yuan worked for a full hour before completely resolving CLA’s issues.

After completing her work, Yan Yuan told Tang Xirui, "Quickly test it to see if it’s fixed!"

"We won’t know until twelve hours from now to see the effect." Tang Xirui replied.

Yan Yuan closed her computer, packed her things, and said, "Consider this a little contribution to your company from my job application. Next time, if you come looking for me, make sure to pay me."

Actually, she just wanted to earn some extra money.

Even if she got the job, she wouldn’t work at the company.

At most, if they encountered problems they couldn’t solve, she’d step in to fix it and then charge an appropriate fee.

Of course, such things, when her name got around, other companies might also hire her and that would be even better.

That way, she could manage all online platforms and then make a fortune.

"Alright, I’m leaving. My contact information is on the file, reach out if there’s a problem." Yan Yuan didn’t linger. It was already past seven, quite late.

It’d be nine by the time she got a cab back.

Tang Xirui quickly stepped forward, having a great impression of Yan Yuan.

Especially since this matter inexplicably made him feel that she might really have fixed it.

"It’s so late, you probably haven’t had dinner. Let me treat you to a meal and then I’ll drive you back!"

Yan Yuan shook her head, "No need, wait until your problems are solved, then treat me to a meal—it won’t be too late. I won’t be polite then."

Tang Xirui didn’t expect her to refuse.

He was considered a top-of-the-notch bachelor, with no girls having ever turned him down.

But clearly, Yan Yuan was more interested in his company’s network system than in him.

He instructed his secretary to escort Yan Yuan out of the company.

Yan Yuan waited for the bus at the stop not far from CLA.

Before long, the bus arrived, and she hopped on.

The bus was crowded, as it was the peak hour at seven, so it was very congested.

She was a bit uncomfortable with the atmosphere, especially in such a big world, she was like a free bird.

Now, squeezed in a crowd, smelling various odors of sweat, it was unpleasant.

Especially as she stood amidst two beefy men eyeing her with leery gazes.

She really wanted to step forward and kick the two of them off the bus.

Just as she was particularly irritated, a refreshing male voice called out not far behind her, "Yan Yuan!"

She turned around to follow the voice and saw it was the newcomer Mu Chiheng from Fengying’s competition.

"What are you doing here?" Yan Yuan asked.

Mu Chiheng smiled slightly, making his already handsome face even more charming. "Come over here and have a seat!"

Yan Yuan glanced at the two burly men around her and quickly squeezed over to sit in the seat Mu Chiheng offered her.

"I’m going to the hospital up ahead. What are you doing here?" Mu Chiheng eyed the bag in Yan Yuan’s hand.

This guy was so professionally dressed, she looked like she was going to a job interview.

Yan Yuan noticed the slight suspicion in Mu Chiheng’s eyes and quickly said, "It’s nothing! I came to visit a friend and help her solve some problems!"

"Oh!" Mu Chiheng nodded, not thinking much of it, then asked, "Are you ready for tomorrow’s competition?"

"Of course!" Yan Yuan nodded decisively.

"I believe in you, you will surely advance." Mu Chiheng said earnestly.

Yan Yuan found it amusing, and her curiosity piqued, she asked, "So, do you think the heroine will be me or Su Meili?"

Mu Chiheng hadn’t expected Yan Yuan to ask this. Although he admitted Yan Yuan had potential,

in this society, having talent doesn’t always guarantee getting what you want.

Seeing his silence, Yan Yuan laughed, "It doesn’t matter. If you’re a piece of gold, you’ll eventually shine. What about you? Do you have confidence in becoming the leading man?"
