Hidden identities of the AI Heiress
Chapter 906 - Chapter 906 Chapter 906 Professor Qiao Your Kid Got Beaten Up

Chapter 906: Chapter 906: Professor Qiao! Your Kid Got Beaten Up by a Group! Chapter 906: Chapter 906: Professor Qiao! Your Kid Got Beaten Up by a Group! What’s the situation? How are Shengqiao and Tianqi so close that they let an outsider be responsible for their new product?

The relationship is absurdly close.

Just as everyone was feeling puzzled, Pei Yao’s next words cleared up the confusion.

“This time, Tianqi’s new product was perfected based on the original code I provided, so it’s only natural that I host this.”

Everyone suddenly understood.

Since it was originally his creation, it made sense for him to be in charge.

Under everyone’s gaze, Pei Yao started to feel nervous again. His eyes fell on Qiao Yun, and just like when he was a youth, no matter what difficulties he faced, he would subconsciously seek guidance from Professor Qiao.

In his heart, although Professor Qiao was young, she was his most reliable support.

Qiao Yun knew Pei Yao too well and realized he might be losing his nerve again. With a calm look, she gave Pei Yao an encouraging glance.

Somehow, Pei Yao felt no more trepidation in his heart.

His wish, his mother’s legacy, would be on display to the world today. He was no longer alone as before. He didn’t need to worry about the future or fear someone taking it away.

Because Professor Qiao was there.

The exchange between Qiao Yun and Pei Yao lasted only a few moments but was caught by Li Hanzhou, who had been watching Qiao Yun the whole time. He pursed his lips and smiled.

This aspect of Qiao Yun really did emanate an aura of a family elder.

Yet, there was also a sense that she was untouchable, and above it all.

His heart skipped a beat, and then he reached out and took Qiao Yun’s hand.

Qiao Yun looked at him with confusion.

Li Hanzhou looked back at Qiao Yun, as composed as ever, and softly said, “It’s nothing.”

“Oh.” Qiao Yun continued to focus on the stage, but her small hand held his tightly.

Li Hanzhou was stunned for a moment, then smiled silently.

On the stage, Pei Yao let out a breath quietly, his face brightened with a smile as he continued, “Although the original code was provided by me, the initial plan was actually inspired by my mother. This time, it’s to fulfill her last regret before passing away.”

The crowd was once again astir.

This was the first time they heard Pei Yao mention his mother.

Pei Yao was actually quite mysterious, with his background unknown. He suddenly took over the Shengqiao Group, and in a few short years, led the company into the top hundred in the world.

Later, it was discovered that he came from Yuncheng, which explained why he had such a good relationship with Tianqi–after all, they were from the same town.

Now they had one more layer of understanding about Pei Yao’s background–apparently, his mother was a scientific researcher who might have worked at Tianqi before.

The audience’s curiosity about Tianqi’s new product to be released surged, especially since this launch event seemed to be even more bustling than usual, reflecting Tianqi’s high level of importance placed on it.

So it must be a truly remarkable product.

Compared to everyone’s curiosity, Fu Yun felt a sudden throbbing in her heart when she heard Pei Yao’s words, accompanied by a bad feeling.

She raised her hand to cover her chest, trying to suppress the panic at the bottom of her heart.

But she couldn’t stop her wild thoughts.

It was too similar.

Even their backgrounds were alike.

If Fu Yao had any unfulfilled regrets, it would be the AI system.

Could it be…

Caught off guard, a headache washed over her mind, and Fu Yun grasped Huo Lin’s arm, her voice trembling as she said, “Alin, do you think the product Tianqi is launching could be the AI system?”

Huo Lin was taken aback, obviously not having considered this.

He had heard that Tianqi was also developing an AI system, but the Huo Research Institute had been working on it for so long without breaking through–could Tianqi have succeeded so soon?

Before Huo Lin could figure it out, he heard Fu Yun continue, “I have a feeling, a very bad feeling.”

Her voice carried an inexplicable mixture of guilt, anger, and vulnerability that Huo Lin couldn’t grasp.

Huo Lin felt that something was wrong with her, thinking she was having another episode, and said, “Mom, are you feeling sick again? I’ll have someone take you down to rest.”

“Oh… Alright.” Like awakening from a dream, Fu Yun wanted to flee the place; she feared Pei Yao’s next words would be as she suspected.

However, before she could stand up, she heard Pei Yao continue, “Now, I announce Tianqi’s upcoming new product launch–it is an AI driving system, and I’ve named it Yaoyao. Unlike previous car systems, Yaoyao is more intelligent and can even have, yes, a brain like a human. It can also be applied to airplanes, cruise ships…”

Fu Yun couldn’t hear anything else; she was rooted to the spot, her head spinning.

She had guessed correctly!

Yaoyao… was it the Yaoyao she thought of?

Linking it to what Pei Yao had just said, to fulfill his mother’s last regret…

So she hadn’t mistaken the person–Pei Yao was indeed Pei Jiu, and his mother was her own sister, Fu Yao!!

This launch event was actually for Fu Yao!

At this moment, Fu Yun’s emotions were incredibly complex; on one hand, she was overjoyed that Jiujiu was still alive, yet on the other hand, she resented that this project would be revealed to the world under Yaoyao’s name.

Didn’t he know this was the Huo Family’s painstaking work of over a decade? Didn’t he know that everyone thought the AI system was established by her husband?

And now he’s launching the system; did he intend to lift the veil of shame?

How was her husband’s reputation and face to be dealt with?

Will the deeds of the Huo Family and her own actions back then be exposed?

The mere thought of this possibility made Fu Yun feel as if even breathing was difficult.

Huo Lin was shocked as well, but she was much calmer than Fu Yun; after all, he wasn’t aware of many things, and it was still unknown whether this AI system was built upon the one Huo Research Institute was currently researching.

His brows furrowed, he rapidly analyzed the pros and cons in his mind.

Now that Tianqi has developed it successfully ahead of the Huo Research Institute and has taken over the market, even if the Huo Institute eventually succeeds, they would still suffer a loss.

So much money and time invested in a project, and now the return might be disproportionate–truly irritating.

He finally started to understand why Tianqi had sent him an invitation; it turned out they were waiting for him here.

Huo Lin understood that many present were likely comparing Tianqi and the Huo Family, and the Huo Family was inevitably considered inferior.

Huo Lin was not wrong; after Pei Ya announced Tianqi’s new product.

Indeed, the scene was like a bomb dropped into a tranquil lake, uproarious and explosive.

“AI system? If I remember correctly, wasn’t the Huo Family working on it?”

“It’s true that the Huo Family was researching it, but they failed many years ago and have made no progress in recent years. I didn’t expect Tianqi Research Institute, an emerging star, to beat them to it.”

“The Huo Family has been established for a longer time than Tianqi. I thought that within China, if anyone could compete with Tianqi, it would be the Huo Family. Seems I was mistaken.”

The most important thing is that the head of the Huo Family is here; one can only wonder what he is feeling right now.

For a moment, many looked in the direction of the Huo Family.

However, they could only see the back of Huo Lin’s head, completely unable to discern his current mood.

And Adrian was deep in thought, judging from Pei Ya’s opening remarks, their released product was somewhat unexpected, even making him feel astonished.

But considering the current level of technology, he did not believe that this technology was mature.

Some companies like to boast when releasing new products, but when it comes to actual use, you find out that as nice as they talk, the experience is just as crappy.

After all, even well-known brand phones can explode. Now that Tianqi has brought out a product beyond his comprehension, who knows how many flaws it might have.

Thinking this, a scornful smile appeared at the corner of Adrian’s mouth.

“Professor.” Darren approached and spoke in a low voice: “It’s all set up over there.”

Adrian haughtily grunted, without glancing sideways: “How’s it looking?”

Darren said: “I’ve contacted the most famous hacker alliance in the world, and they will certainly give them… as the Chinese say, a taste of their own medicine.”

Adrian nodded slightly, arrogantly saying: “Don’t go too far, I just want to send them a greeting. After all, it’s their launch event, they deserve some dignity.”

“Understood.” Darren was very compliant: “After all, coming from afar, as guests we really should give a proper welcome gift.”

Adrian approved: “You’re a clever kid.” He paused, then added: “Of course, this is reciprocating a courtesy as well.”

Exactly.

Previously, Tianqi breached the Huo Research Institute’s security system, and unfortunately, the person responsible for the security was a student of Adrian’s.

Confident as he was, Adrian felt that he had been slapped in the face, which is why he suddenly had an idea; since Tianqi was unethical, he might as well act unethically just this once.

Meanwhile, over at the server room.

Han Wang was idly sipping his bubble milk tea when suddenly the control panel emitted a series of beeping alarm sounds. He nearly sprayed out the mouthful of milk tea he hadn’t yet swallowed, startled, he put down the milk tea, and his fingers began operating the mouse.

He even complimented himself: “Wow, turns out I’ve got a talent for sarcasm.”

Just wondering who would be stupid enough to mess with them at this time.

Look, the stupid ones have arrived.

Han Wang’s fingers interlaced, and he flexed his hands.

It was time to showcase his skills.

His fingers flew rapidly over the keyboard, but as time passed, Han Wang’s initially relaxed expression gradually became serious and earnest, until at last, his lips quivered.

“Damn it.”

Damn it.

The opponent was actually employing a human wave attack strategy!

For this launch event, neither he, Pei Ya, nor Han Wang had expected someone to cause trouble, so only he was responsible for cybersecurity.

This resulted in him being swarmed by the attackers!

Han Wang realized that despite the aggressiveness of the attackers, they only had one objective.

That was the demonstration system!

In a little while, Pei Ya was going to use the demonstration system to show Yaoyao’s operating system to everyone on-site, including tens of millions of netizens online!

If the demonstration system was compromised, they wouldn’t be able to proceed with the demo.

Thinking of this possibility, Han Wang shuddered and realized the severity of the situation!

In his mind, he screamed silently!

Professor Qiao! Your kid is being beaten up; come save me!

…

At the venue.

On stage, Pei Ya continued to explain to the audience the original intentions and philosophy behind his mother’s creation of Yaoyao, all things his mother had told him which he kept firmly in his heart.
