Baby Hacker And His Boss Daddy

In 2012, in Willie Town, Germany.

"Michelle, what happened?" With a pair of little slippers and a black tracksuit on, Richard Gu appeared at the door, staring at Michelle Gu in the middle of that mess.

"I'm fine! The bowl just accidentally slipped from my hands. Don't worry! A fire didn't start this time. Nothing's on fire..." Michelle Gu looked at her son, patted her chest and tried her best to pull herself together!

"..." Look! He had a bit of a foresight. Leaving his mother alone in the kitchen was such a big mistake! With that, she just turned around, grabbed the broom and cleaned it up. Once she got a hold of herself, she finally calmed down!

"Richard, wait! Mommy will definitely fix everything for your birthday party before 2 o'clock. Trust me!" Biting her lower lip, Michelle Gu thought to herself, 'Today is my dear son Richard's fifth birthday!' She had computed the time difference. Two o'clock in the afternoon would exactly be Chinese New Year's Eve. Although she had been living in Germany for almost five years, Michelle Gu still hadn't forgotten how she grew up in China and brought along with her the only person she considered her family-Richard Gu.

Raising his head, Richard Gu glanced at her rosy cheeks, which were glowing out of either embarrassment or excitement. He hesitated for a moment. Yes! This was his mother, Michelle Gu. Although she was already 22 years of age, she was actually still clueless in the ways of the world. In fact, her ability to take care of herself wasn't even as good as his, a five-year-old child. She volunteered to prepare a birthday dinner for him this morning and promised to let him watch over everything!

Others cooked to make money, but Michelle Gu-she cooked to kill somebody! 'I hope nothing bad happens anymore!' Otherwise, this building wouldn't be able to withstand another fire.

Michelle Gu squatted down and gestured toward her son like she was cheering for him. With a resolute look in her eyes, she told him, "Come on! I may not usually be capable, but today is different. It's my son's birthday, so I have to become a superhuman if I have to. Mommy will not let you down, my baby!" -

"Well, you don't have to try so hard. Just do what you can! Make sure you don't hurt yourself," he said. Then, he went on and added, sounding a bit concerned, "Michelle, if you can't do it, you still have me, Richard! You can rely on me." After saying that, he gently patted Michelle Gu's head. Then, he simply turned around and left, shaking his head in disappointment.

"Yes! I'll try my best!" "This brat! You're not giving me any credit at all! Have you forgotten that I was the one who gave birth to you? I may not be good at cooking or doing housework, but..." Of course, Michelle Gu could only whisper under her breath behind Richard Gu. Although her son might look like an elegant gentleman, as a matter of fact, he was actually a cunning little boy. What was she supposed to do as a mother? As she thought of that, she couldn't help but take a deep sigh.

In front of the window on the second floor, Michelle Gu seemed to still be quite busy, much like a little bee that was happily moving around.

Richard Gu went back to the living room. It was already one o'clock in the afternoon. Good! There were still some things that needed to be done, and an hour should be more than enough.

So, he walked into the study and locked the door behind him. Turning on the computer, he quickly typed something.

In the cyberspace world, he actually had a secret identity-the number one hacker in the world known as "The Heart".

Last night, he accepted a big job to sneak into an island and steal the new round of military base confidential information from the New Zealand Military Intelligence Classified Section. First and foremost, he had to prepare 11.11 million fake IP addresses for himself, just in case others would try to track him down. That way, even if they were to find some clues, 11.11 million addresses should be too much for them to investigate. After all, he had to protect the little woman in the kitchen well along with himself. His identity as a hacker should be kept a secret at all costs.

Then, he got into a Swiss bank's system to check his virtual account. There, he confirmed that the deposit had been made in the early hours of the morning. When he checked the GPS location of the sender and the remittance of the deposit, there were 24 possible places spread out all over the globe. It seemed that they were also being very careful not to reveal their identity. Needless to say, no matter how careful they might be, their efforts were all in vain in front of the number one hacker whatsoever. Once Richard Gu injected his special 'The Heart' virus into the computer, it quickly took over the computer and automatically connected it to the two other computers beside it. It started analyzing the data right away, and words written in blue appeared on the three screens simultaneously.

At that point, a red warning flashed on the screen in the middle. The search was a success. Looking at the time, everything took about three minutes.

As he stared at the address flashing on his screen, Richard couldn't hold back his excitement.

The United States, which had called for a global coalition to fight against terrorists, had relied on the skills of hackers to steal confidential information from other countries countless times. It would simply be like a thief shouting for arrest!

Richard decided to give them a bit of a scare; he sent the stolen information to the U.S. Central Intelligence Bureau.

After that, he clapped his little hands, and everything was done. His leisure time ended up being a little boring.

As he thought of the woman in the kitchen who was trying her best, his heart was filled with so much warmth. Michelle looked so cute when she was panicking earlier.

All things considered, his mother was a kind and lovely woman. However, she was a bit of a shrew and oftentimes confused. Throughout years, they had lived in this two-story house. They had a flower shop on the first floor and were living on the second floor. They were barely getting by. Although life had always been hard when they first came here, since he started making money, let alone making a living, they could easily afford to live a luxurious life.

Of course, there was no way Richard could tell his mother that he was the number one hacker in the world known as "The Heart". To make sure that stupid woman wouldn't have anything to worry about, he only told her that he could write some computer programs and sell them online, making a little money. Never in Michelle's wildest dreams would she think that her five-year-old son was actually the number one hacker in the world and a billionaire as well.

What was Michelle getting so excited about just now?

As far as he could tell, there weren't a lot of things that could make Michelle feel so excited. Other than him, there should only be that special period left.

Whenever Michelle had some free time, she would tell him things about the past. It was said that one morning six years ago, his mother suddenly woke up in the street of A City, with a headache and a blank mind. Everything seemed so strange. The streets and the crowds were unfamiliar to her and she couldn't even remember know who she was. All she had with her was a black jade pendant with 'Michelle Gu' engraved on it. Apart from that, she didn't know anything else. Michelle lost her memory, and she felt so confused and scared.

With the help of the police and some kind-hearted people, after several twists and turns, she finally found somewhere to stay for the time being.

Who was the person Michelle was calling in her dream?

Looking back on those countless nights, when Michelle was asleep, Richard could hear her screaming, "Go away, go away", "No, Richard..."

A deep frown appeared on Richard's face. Who was that man? What did he do to Michelle?

Richard had an early memory. When he was still very young, he had been envious of other children and asked Michelle why he didn't have a daddy. Every time he asked, Michelle would look at him with eyes filled with so much guilt and heartache, and she would keep silent.

When he heard how Michelle screamed and struggled in the middle of the night, he didn't dare to ask any more. He began to fear that his birth was nothing but a sin, and he was afraid that she would abandon him.

That night, he vowed to find the man who left Michelle feeling sad and scared and to make his life a living hell. It didn't matter who he was, he would do anything, even if that man was the devil himself.

All of a sudden-

"Crack! Crack!" He heard the sound of pots and pans falling on the floor coming from the kitchen. Checking the time on the bottom right of the computer screen, which showered '13:20', he thought to himself, 'It's almost done!' -

After withdrawing his sharp gaze, he walked out of the study and went back to the kitchen.

The aftermath of the battle... was horrible!

After withdrawing his sharp gaze, Richard walked out of the study and went back to the kitchen.

The aftermath of the battle was horrible!

Pots and pans were scattered on the floor, and vegetables were all over the place. A pungent smell of something burnt poured into his nostrils.

'Oh, my God!' For his mother's "incredible" cooking skills, which was enough to make even the gods cry, Richard had to sigh helplessly at her cooking again.

"Michelle, just let me do it!" Richard insisted earnestly, looking at his mother who seemed to be so out of it.

"No, I said I was going to prepare a delicious meal for you," Michelle stubbornly replied.

"Michelle, it's your birthday today as well. Just think of it as a son giving thanks to you for giving birth to me." Richard tried to come up with an excuse to convince her.

Yes, having forgotten everything about her past, Michelle took the day her son was born as her birthday as well, considering it as a sign of 'hope and rebirth'!

"Okay, then I'll cheer you on while you cook," Michelle said, pursing her lips. At that moment, she had no choice but to accept Richard's suggestion. Sad to say, her ideal was very fantastic, but the reality was very cruel!

With that, Richard formally took over the preparations for the birthday party.

With her son standing on the small chair, ready and capable, Michelle who was watching over him, walked away toward the living room in shame.

She turned on the TV and found that everything was in German.

Absent-minded, Michelle kept pressing the remote control to change the channel. When she suddenly heard something in Chinese, she quickly turned back.

It was a news report of German journalists interviewing people about the Chinese Spring Festival. Michelle proceeded to watch the festive scene on the TV without blinking. It looked so lively in China right now! - Her eyes were glued to the TV. 'If I and Richard didn't leave ...

Stop! Michelle Gu, you shouldn't think too much! There are always some things that are beyond your control, such as missing your hometown! I miss you not because I'm lonely, but I do feel lonely when I think about you...'

Alas...

They had been away from China for almost five years now. For the last five years, they had been struggling in this foreign land. She missed her country so much and wanted to speak her mother tongue.

It had been five long years already. Would he find out if she went back now? Michelle thought of him, the man in black.

She had no idea who he was.

Four days after she gave birth to Richard, he found her.

That midnight, Michelle was awakened by the sound of her son's crying. Out of reflex, she immediately opened her eyes.

The moonlight illuminated the room through the window, and a figure in black stood in front of the cradle, pointing a gun at Richard. He was looking at her sideways, with a cold and vicious glare in his eyes.

"Wh-Who are you?

My baby! My baby! Let him go! Let him go!" Michelle sprung up from the bed, knelt down and broke down in tears, looking so terrified. "No, no, please let him go! Please, my baby..."

"Leave China, or else..." The man in black then loaded the gun and pressed it hard against Richard's head, causing him to cry even harder.

"Okay, okay, I promise, I promise you! Just please don't hurt my baby!" Michelle went down on her knees, gasping and crying.

"Leave right now. Go as far away as you can. Don't ever let me see you again, or you won't be able to bear the consequences."

After saying that, he left a huge sum of money, turned around and left.

The next morning, Michelle immediately left China, bringing her Richard along with her.

As for the mysterious man in black who appeared that night, Michelle had wondered about his identity and intention more than once. Who was he? Could it be that he was the father of Richard? Why did he leave her a huge sum of money and threaten her to take her son away?

Amnesia, pregnancy, and a sudden threat... With all of this, Michelle felt as though she had gotten caught in a whirlwind of mystery.

Once Michelle got a hold of herself, she set the table, chair, bowl, and chopsticks in place.

When she walked into the kitchen, she saw Richard's busy little figure, who was wearing an apron and holding a large spatula on the chair.

With a strange expression in her teary eyes as she watched her son's every move, she said from out of the blue, "Richard, let's go back to China."

"What? You want to go back to China?" Richard turned around and looked at his mother, blinking his big bright eyes in surprise. There was a bead of sweat on his forehead, and his chubby little cheeks were slightly red thanks to the "intense exercise" (cooking fried vegetables).

However, Michelle kept silent, unsure of how she was supposed to answer her son's question. If at all possible, she really didn't want to make him worry so much. Five years had passed, perhaps...

When the clock struck two, Michelle and Richard had dinner on time.

The two of them were eating in silence. Michelle was contemplating about returning to China, while Richard was pondering about what Michelle had just said. Guessing what was on his mother's mind all the time and giving her the most 'appropriate' advice was the most essential weapon for him to keep himself safe!

"Michelle, do you miss home?" Richard couldn't help asking, seeing the hesitant look on Michelle's face.

"Well, does Richard think we should go back to China?" Michelle had never really told Richard why she brought him to Germany. And the reason for that was because she was afraid his young heart might not be able to handle it.

Voice-over: "Michelle Gu, if you only knew what your son has been doing, you will be the one who's frightened! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh~~~"

"I think it would be a good idea." Richard was certain that Michelle wanted to go back. Well! Going back to the place where he was born didn't seem like such a bad idea!

"But we have been away for five years. What if we have trouble getting used to the new environment when we suddenly go back?" Michelle was worried about what might happen once they got back home.

"Don't be afraid! Your son can make money now. When push comes to shove, I'll be the one to support you!" Richard wasn't worried whatsoever.

"What are you even saying?! Of course Mommy should be the one to raise my son! Stop being ridiculous!" Michelle's face turned red in annoyance. Despite the fact that he was the one who bought the house, invested in the flower shop, and took care of the three meals they had per day, she would never be willing to admit that she was good for nothing in front of her son! How could she admit such an embarrassing fact? After all, she still wanted to keep her dignity.

"Of course!" Richard said, curling his lip.

"Richard, let's go back! Let's have a brand new start," Michelle firmly said as she looked at Richard.

"Okay, let's go back to China," Richard happily replied!

A week later, at the international airport of A City.

Michelle was wearing a black overcoat, black hat, black boots, black sunglasses, and pulling a black luggage.

Also wearing all black, Richard followed her closely behind, holding the edge of her clothes and walking step by step while getting strange looks from the crowd. This was something that Michelle firmly insisted on doing. If Richard were to let go of her for so much as a single second, he was going to receive a glare. For that reason, he had no choice but to be a chickabiddy. Michelle was worried that Richard might get lost. After all, didn't it often happen in novels where the heroine lost her baby at the airport?! - She didn't want such a thing happen to her at all!

"Michelle, why do we have to be dressed like this?" taking off the black sunglasses, Richard couldn't take it anymore and finally asked.

"Hush, don't do anything to attract attention. I told you to keep a low profile!" Michelle replied, keeping her voice low, while stealthily observing their surroundings.

That being said, how could they possibly blend in with the crowd while wearing those clothes? In fact, all eyes were on them right now! It was New Year's Eve and they were dressed in black with two black sunglasses to match. Who were they kidding? It was winter now. They really stood out like a sore thumb. He had no idea what Michelle was thinking! What about his elegant image?! But he didn't dare to voice out his anger, Richard simply kept it to himself.

Michelle didn't respond to his complaint and simply kept looking around. Although China was large and she had chosen to travel to a different city, she couldn't help worrying that she might come across someone suspicious. If that person found out that they came back secretly, they might end up dead. With that in mind, Michelle prayed in her heart, 'God! Let that man die in peace! Or perhaps he could just lose his memory...'

As she stood in front of the exit door and watched the people coming and going, Michelle seemed to be a little lost and in need of help.

"Richard, where should we go now?"

"Call a taxi. We'll stay at the hotel for today and then try to find a house and a job tomorrow." Richard was already the one calling the shots.

"Okay, let's go to the hotel first." She pushed her luggage and grabbed a hold of Richard's hand as she tried to hail a taxi.

Forty minutes later, almost all the people around them had gone already, but Michelle still hadn't managed to get a taxi. She was so eager to grab a taxi that she ended up walking further and further with Richard without even noticing it.

Suddenly, the screeching sound of brakes caught everyone's attention.

Everyone saw a pure blue Lamborghini pull over on the side of the road. Just a few inches away from the car, a young woman was sitting on the ground, holding a five-year-old child in her arms. Her luggage was scattered all over the ground, and Michelle's mind went blank. Just now, they managed to avoid an accident.

"Damn it!" Daniel Jiang whispered under his breath. From afar, he saw the woman walking across the road, with a child following closely behind. At that moment, he thought that they were one of those people who were trying to blackmail him.

"Are you blind? You're being too reckless!" Michelle furiously said. 'It feels so great to have a damn car, doesn't it? It was a good thing that I was able to react quickly. If it so much as grazed my Richard, I would definitely fight him to death!'

"Here you go. Just get out of my face." Daniel Jiang rolled down the window and threw out a wad of money. He had never seen anyone who would go so far as to take a child with them when doing such a thing. So, for the sake of the effort they put into it, he decided to just let it slip.

"What are you doing? You... You..." Looking at the flying money, Michelle wanted to give him a mouthful, but she hadn't sworn for so long. After living in Germany for five years, she had completely forgotten how to curse in Chinese.

"You're just a scum of society, a scumbag in the top class, a peacock, a pollution in the air. At worst, you're not using your head. And you know what? You will definitely earn good money if you sell your brain, since it is brand new. You're just a foolish bastard! I suggest you don't blame society for your stupidity. It's your own fault for coming out and being a threat to humans!" As he looked at his mother who was not good at arguing with others and was so furious that her face turned red, Richard had to calmly speak fluent Chinese while still keeping an elegant and charming smile on his face.

"..." An awkward silence filled the air for three seconds.

"Richard, you're awesome!" As she watched the fearless young Richard help her reprimand that man, she felt so proud again. It was so great to have a talented son! She didn't expect him to be so good at cursing!

After he heard this, blue veins popped out on Daniel Jiang's temples. Clenching his fist, he tried his best to hold back his anger. If they really pissed him off, he was afraid that he would beat them up.

In the end, he closed his eyes and took a deep breath. He couldn't afford to waste him time on these people now. Today, his father was flying back from Switzerland and he was asked to pick him up. He had no idea what was going on inside his father's head right. All he knew was that he couldn't be late.

"Ridiculous!" With that, he rolled up the window, stepped on the gas and drove away!

"Bastard, you just think too highly of yourself because of your money..." Michelle yelled out from behind him. She had never come across such an unreasonable man in her life.

"Mom, don't stoop down to the same level as that jerk. Go ahead and grab the money. Let's go to a five star hotel," Richard said, trying to comfort Michelle. In fact, he wasn't willing to let him go so easily. "AC1234!" He memorized the license plate number!

"Yes, the money!" Michelle thought of the bills scattered all over the ground. She was a bit of a penny pincher. When she arrived in Germany, she suffered so much from being poor. At that time, her money had been stolen, and she neither had relatives nor a place to live. Richard didn't even have milk to drink... It should go without saying that she was so pitiful back then.

The two of them picked up the money on the ground and counted together. All in all, it should be about three to four thousand! The money didn't go to charity. However, it went straight to the ground. Seeing this, she couldn't help but sigh. "Rich people!"

Holding Richard's hand, Michelle said, "Let's go to the biggest and best hotel they have." In the end, she decided to make the most of this 'huge sum of money' and enjoy it with her son.

An hour later, Michelle, who was holding Richard's hand and pushing her luggage, stood in front of the gate of the XW International Hotel.

Her jaw dropped in astonishment. She told the driver to take them to the fanciest restaurant in all of A City, but she never thought it would be this luxurious. At that moment, she began to doubt if she could actually afford it.

As for Richard, the little boy also seemed to be very curious. Blinking his big bright eyes, he looked around the magnificent hall and couldn't wait to give it a try.

"Let's go!" Michelle led the way, walking in with her luggage.

A beautiful lady walked up to them and asked, "What can I do for you?" She had such a sweet voice.

Left utterly stunned, Michelle turned frigid. As far as she could remember, she had never been to a hotel before, let alone such a high-end international one.

"We would like a presidential suite," Richard replied with a sweet smile, and then looked at his mother who seemed so out of it. He had to take charge during such a crucial moment!

"Okay! We'll book a room for you. This way please." The pretty lady looked at the strange pair in black and couldn't figure out how they were related. She showed them the way to the front desk to book a room.

While Michelle was booking a room for them to stay in, Richard looked around leisurely.

From out of the blue, a small commotion came from the otherwise peaceful entrance.

It was the man who almost ran over him and Michelle at the airport. Looking at the old man and the beautiful woman beside him, Richard's eyes sparkled with excitement as he tried to assess the situation.

On the other side, Daniel Jiang had a deep frown on his face. He knew that his father couldn't wait for him to get married so he could give him a grandson as soon as possible. However, he wanted to be the one to decide when it came to his marriage and didn't want anyone to interfere. What was more...

He turned his head and glanced at the daughter of the Xiang Family, who was trying so hard to act like an elegant lady. Needless to say, he didn't want to marry her at all, nor was he interested in having a simple date or dinner with her.

Unfortunately, his father, who knew nothing about it, was so absorbed in his own fantasy. He would get angry every time he thought of his old friends who kept talking about their grandsons and showing off in front of him. In contrast, his son was already thirty years old, but he didn't even have a girlfriend, let alone having a grandson. He once even thought that his son didn't like women at all. 'For goodness' sake, my son has to be straight!' Right now, Daniel was the only heir of the Jiang family!

This time, Mr. Jiang decided to bring out his ultimate trump card, and that brat would have no choice but to listen to him! Then, he glanced at Zola, the daughter of the Xiang Family, a mixed race of Chinese and English, well-educated, elegant and generous. The Princess and the Prince, they were such a perfect match! 'I'm going to have a grandson!'

From out of nowhere...

"Daddy, Daddy, how could you leave Mommy and me behind?" Holding Daniel's hand in his arms, Richard bawled his eyes out and attracted everyone's attention.

"Damn it! Get off me!" Daniel exclaimed, pushing away the little boy who suddenly appeared beside him.

Richard, who fell to the ground, cursed in his heart, 'Laying a hand on children! You can't call yourself a man!' He quickly got up, wrapped his arms around Daniel's thigh and put on his best act.

"Daddy, Why are you being so cruel? Don't you want Mommy and me? "Ahhh! Oh, my God! Holy..."

Mr. Jiang was so thrilled. Did he hear that right? - What did that child just call his son? Daddy? - He called his son Daddy, which meant that he was going to call him 'Grandpa'? - 'I have a grandson!'

"What?" The beautiful daughter of the Xiang Family who was trying to look elegant couldn't keep her composure any longer. "What did you just call him?" Her face, which had delicate makeup on, instantly turned pale and became gloomy.

"Daddy, he is my Daddy..." Richard raised his head and looked at the daughter of the Xiang Family with tears in his eyes. "Aunt, is it because of aunt that Daddy abandoned Mommy and me?" -

"That's impossible! He..." Just as she was about to say something, the old man cut her off. He didn't want his precious grandson to get hurt by his son's kick.
