Chapter 152 The Prodigy
Soon, the company’s shareholders gathered outside the lab as they all stared at Silas, disagreeing with
his choice of letting a child handle the crisis. Therefore, they all dissuaded him from going ahead.
“President, maybe we should let Jacob Sully handle this. After all, he is a professional and the right
person to do the job!”
“That’s right. If things go wrong, we’re going to suffer a huge loss!” in the face of everyone else who
disagreed, Silas responded with a darkened look as he shoved the technician away. “I told you to
move. So, just do as I said.” As the technician was shoved away, he could only helplessly watch his
hard work go down the drain. He wanted to speak but swallowed his words in the end. “President
Nolan…”

technicians. Then, he walked up to the computer and stood instead of sitting in front of the screen
because of his height. Meanwhile, everyone else who witnessed this felt dismayed and disappointed by
Silas’s bad call, doubting his decision to have a child look into a crisis. What can a kid do? That’s not
how you pamper a child. Nevertheless, while the witnesses were complaining, South began jumping
into action. With a complacent look on his face and a lollipop in his mouth, his little hands were seen
typing on the keyboard pads with lightning speed as the monitor screen showed codes that kept
changing. Needless to say, these were programming codes that were strangers to all laymen who were
watching. In that instant, all the shareholders were left with their eyes widened and mouths agape.
Meanwhile, the technicians didn’t even have time to process the pain of letting their hard work go to
waste before they realized the child only took less than a minute to catch up with the progress they had
been making for an hour. Therefore, they were all dumbstruck and stunned by what they saw. How long
did the kid say he needed? It looks like he is not bluffing, judging from his progress. Witnessing South’s
impressive performance, the technicians couldn’t help but doubt their own abilities as they didn’t expect
to be humiliated by a child in their area of expertise. While time was ticking, the monitor screen lit up as
soon as South hit the enter key, with the timer stopping at four minutes thirty-two seconds. “Great! The
system is back online!” the secretary happily exclaimed, “And all my stuff is still here.” Soon, everyone
else cheered in excitement. “It’s really back to normal! This is quicker than we expected!” Nevertheless,
South didn’t stop there but instead went on to make some necessary upgrades in the system. Then, he
looked at Silas and said, “I just installed a firewall in your system so hackers won’t access your system
so easily.” At the sight of that, the shareholders all retreated without making any more noise while the
technicians were rendered speechless. It was only after a long while that they finally asked, “Do you

The technician’s words put South in a trance as the child doubtfully looked at him. “What makes you
think it’s Wily Rabbit?” “Well, I just think he is pretty good,” the technician murmured. South curled his
lips upward and thought to himself, Why would Wily Rabbit hack your system as if he has nothing else
better to do? Furthermore, my dad seems to be behaving well these two days. “Wily Rabbit is a lot
better than this. If he had struck your system, you probably wouldn’t have had time to react!” Upon
saying that, South shifted his eyes to Silas and said, “Let’s go, shall we?” Meanwhile, Silas had only
leaned on the table as he met South’s gaze. Then, he smiled with a pair of gentle eyes while ruffling
the little boy’s hair. “Sure, let’s go.” After that, Silas held his hand and left, leaving all the other
employees awestruck and dumbfounded. “Oh gosh! This is unbelievable. That kid is a prodigy! An
issue that took an hour for more than ten technicians to work on only took five minutes for a kid to
settle.”
