Just a moment ago, Boss Zhang had been utterly weak and fragile, but after Ou Jue and Xiyan left, he immediately transformed into someone who seemed perfectly fine.

"Impossible. Although Ou Jue's hacking skills are top-notch and almost had me caught by his people two days ago, I'm no pushover either!" Boss Zhang pushed up the glasses on his nose.
Upon closer inspection, he actually bore a slight resemblance to the bespectacled guy who smeared Xiyan's reputation for ballot rigging during the selection contest.
