50 Million, and Not A Penny Lesser Even before Brian was astonished, South had already started to restore the system. The annoying, tiny face became serious in less than a minute-his fingers operated the keyboard with the speed of lightning, sending the codes on the screen scurrying. The progress bar that those technicians had failed to load suddenly rushed to a hundred. All the technicians gaped at what they saw and pointing at South, gasping, “F*ck! I-It has successfully loaded? What kind of show is this?” “Did you see that? How did he manage to do it?” “What could thave seen? That kid was too fast with his hands!” “Yes, he took less than a minute to discover the route we were only able to find after an hour.” “Oh my God, I feel like the younger generation has overtaken us in terms of intelligence!” The discussion that the technicians engaged in were clearly audible, but Brian was so shocked by what happened that he could not even say a word. Regardless of whether the little boy could succeed or not, just by looking at his strong self-confidence was enough to persuade Brian to believe Silas’s words-South was really good at what he did! “How long has it been?” Brian asked. If he continues at this speed, it will definitely be possible for him to resolve the matter in 10 minutes. The onlookers answered, “9 minutes!” As their voices fell into silence, South pressed the ‘enter’ key, causing the computer screen to brighten and the technicians to cheer together. After they had checked and experimented, the technicians finally admitted that after their night of being busy for nothing, the little boy had solved the issue in less than 10 minutes. It is… such a great shame!
South dragged his feet and raised his head before addressing Brian, “50 million!”
After that, he directly exited the place. Brian initially froze before his expression was replaced by that of a grin followed by a burst of laughter. Is my young nephew that good? No wonder Silas is always bragging
about him to me. He rushed out as well, only to be greeted by the cheers from his employees outside.
“Wow, the computer is finally repaired.” “I finally don’t have to write by hand.”
Silas embraced South in his arms and looked at Brian. “It hasn’t even been 10 minutes since you guys went inside.”
Brian didn’t want Silas to feel glorified-yet, he couldn’t help but admit that his young nephew had convinced with his skill and talent. Brian turned to gaze at South. “You’ve been such a great help to your Uncle Brain. So, whatever it is that you want, I’ll buy it for you.” He called himself Uncle Brian and not Mr. Brian! South felt a little guilty and wanted to tell him the truth, so he looked at Silas. Silas gave him an encouraging look, feeling at ease that his son bore that kind of conscience.
South blinked while staring at Brian with a sly gleam in his eyes. “Uncle Brian, you don’t have to buy anything for me. You don’t even have to pay the 50 million as long as you promise me one thing.”
Brian lifted his brows, ecstatic at the way his young nephew addressed him and gushed. “What? Aren’t you allowing me to pursue your mommy? This is not good; you are so talented that it makes me want to adopt you as my son even more.”
South’s face darkened while he glared coldly at Brian, saying vehemently, “50 million, and not a penny less.”
After that, he dragged Silas, saying, “Uncle Silas, let’s go.”
Brian had no idea that a joke would elicit such a strong reaction from South. Before anything else could be said, the little boy had dragged Silas and walked off. Silas glanced at Brian and helplessly shook his head in speechlessness. What can I do about it since you are the one who asked for it? People always had to pay for their own mistakes-true, it was only a few million for Brian, but think about his 100 million…
No! It’s not just 100 million; it’s 100 million that I lost in cold, hard cash. What about the 100 million from Wuyuo San that was auctioned off?
What about the 50 million that Camila cheated me of?
Sigh, it’s all just a lesson learned!
As Camila was a little busy today, Silas was the one who picked the child up and it was already half-past six by the time she arrived home.
