Protagonist:

Chen Yi

A weekday afternoon at five o'clock was precisely the quietest time in the Chen household. His parents, busy as ever, would never both appear in the living room to chat over tea.

Chen Yi chuckled darkly, poured himself a glass of water first, then said in a joking tone: "What's gotten into the two of you today?"

"Be serious." Fang Man Yi put on a stern face and said: "Tell us about your recent conduct."

No matter how you put it, she was a foundation director, and her cool act had quite the air of a strong woman.

But Chen Yi was who he was—the son of a strong woman—and he saw through her disguise at a glance, asking unconcernedly: "Old man, what about you?"

"I'm here for company." Chen Congyu rarely intervened directly in his son's upbringing, always appearing as a deterrent figure.

Parents weren't easy either; they had compiled "intelligence" over a recent period, and only after Chen Yi had finished most of his work did they find leisure to inquire. Their concern was both that they might interfere with his normal social activities and that he might go astray.

Chen Yi had long been prepared for this. He organized his words and said: "I know what you want to ask. Actually, I met a Swedish friend who took a liking to my computer skills and wants to cooperate with me to start a high-frequency trading company. Due to the company's special nature, I won't name the partners."

Mainly because making up a name was meaningless.

Mr. Chen Congyu, familiar with company operations, immediately dropped the company act and said: "Does that Swedish friend of yours have a supercomputer?"

That day, besides Chen Yi, his father himself had also paid attention to the international student's words.

Actually, anyone who heard that high-frequency trading was equivalent to risk-free gambling wouldn't easily forget it. It's just that, hampered by constantly rising thresholds, few people were truly qualified to get involved.

Chen Congyu had been envious that very day. He hadn't expected his son to get involved first.

"It's a large machine. We'll do some optimization specifically—that's my job." Chen Yi spoke as if it were true, then explained: "His company requires capital equity, not technical equity, so I borrowed 6 million."

Equity should technically be personal assets, but in actual operation, it's hard to regulate.

Just a few sentences, with too many questions to ask, and the two still found it hard to accept.

After a long while, Fang Man Yi frowned and said: "How high is your computer skill?"

"Pretty high. You can ask your sister."

Chen Rongxi wasn't home today.

Chen Yi spoke half-truths. Everything he said was easy to verify, but as for the information that truly needed hiding, not a word leaked out.

From what he said, Fang Man Yi and Chen Congyu could only get a general concept. The problem was, if they wanted to inquire further, they didn't understand the specific technology.

If questioning a subordinate, such content would suffice, but for one's own son, more concern was inevitable.

Fang Man Yi thought for a moment, then decisively said: "You've graduated from high school. If you started a business from university, that's indeed a positive signal, but don't you think it's too rushed?"

"I just happened to encounter an opportunity. If you're really not reassured, you can ask Tang Xiongfei." Chen Yi laughed as he said this.

Tang Xiongfei had gone in the name of the Chen family's young master, so Chen Congyu asking would be hard to hide. Chen Yi simply let them see more.

Chen Father and Chen Mother helplessly exchanged a glance.

Cooperating with the Swedish company to speculate on the hottest financial derivatives sounded like a pretty good concept.

Not to mention that Chen Yi hadn't troubled them; even if he really asked to start a business, would conditional parents really oppose it?

If you lose money, just treat it as paying tuition!

This was probably the line entrepreneurs used most to comfort themselves.

"So how do you plan to do it?" The mother worried more. Fang Man Yi wasn't afraid of losing 6 million; she feared Chen Yi might be deceived and unable to bear it in his heart.

Chen Yi could guess her thoughts and had to say: "The Swedish company is basically trustworthy,

except that the Swede and his company can't be verified,

really speaking, a son gaining the trust of a foreign friend and being invited to invest in a company is a manifestation of ability. But precisely because it's a foreign company, the two of them wanting to help verify it rarely have channels."

Chen Yi waited beside them for two minutes, then smiled and said: "You're done asking your questions, so now it's my turn."

"Hmm?"

"Do you know the Mensa Club?"

Fang Man Yi raised her head in surprise and said: "I know, that high-IQ club?"

"More or less." Chen Yi explained a couple more sentences to his father, then suddenly said: "I received an invitation and will take their membership test in two days."

Fang Man Yi didn't react for a moment, frowning and said: "Joining a club, don't let it affect your studies. University is still for studying."

"Yes." Chen Yi had a black line on his face.

Chen Father then asked: "High-IQ club, how high an IQ?"

"148."

This number obviously exceeded both their expectations. The usually calm Fang Man Yi suddenly changed her tone and asked: "My son has an IQ of 148?"

"Probably." Chen Yi sweated. Since the day he started cheating, his ability had largely been linked to the scroll.

Chen Congyu coughed once, put the newspaper on the table, looked Chen Yi up and down for a long while, and sighed: "Must be my good seed."

Fang Man Yi twisted him hard.

Chen Yi silently retreated to his room, leaving the two parents alone to digest the news they had just received.

He turned on the computer, and the auto-logged-in email immediately popped up several reminders.

"Test time confirmed for July 2nd." This was sent by Professor Lang.

"Latest Perfume and Spice Directory." This was sent by Raymond.

"June Fourth Week Progress Report." This was sent by White.

Chen Yi immediately clicked to look. There was also a reply from his younger sister, something like "Pass, please accelerate development progress, test in the second week of July."

A line of bright red font made him couldn't help but smile knowingly.

The "Siren" Virtual Machine System was ready-made. Once the test passed, it could go online immediately. It was estimated that within three months, the fund issue would be eased, and afterward, it might even help the family. The evil Capitalist Empire had the most Gold Crystal Capitalist Tumors; for the world's peace, it was better to remove some.

Thinking of this, Chen Yi's heart stirred, and he leisurely logged into a Zombie Computer, then entered the Siren's IP Address.

Next was the Super Administrator Password.

North America's most advanced Cutting-Edge Scientific Computer, like a Snow White Thigh clad in Black Silk, lay nearly bare before Chen Yi.
