My stepmother forced me to donate bone marrow, so I retaliated by slapping my scumbag father in the

Shen Jianjun said coldly, "Explain yourself."

The hacker paused for a few seconds: "I've investigated many people—celebrities, corporate executives, individuals subject to enforcement for breach of trust, holders of overseas accounts—all sorts of people."

"But this Shen Ze is very strange."

"His name seems to be separated by something."

"I can confirm that he exists, but I can't access any specific information about him."

"The ID number cannot be matched with a valid file, the mobile phone number cannot be tracked for real-name information, the address record cannot be opened, and social security, education, and work experience are all blocked."

"Even when I tried to retrieve the surveillance footage, none of the relevant images were recognizable."

Sun Mei's face changed: "How is that possible? He was clearly in Anpingli this morning!"

The hacker's voice tightened: "That's the problem."

"Logically speaking, as long as he appears in a public area, there should be a video record."

"But the results I found showed that his profile picture was blank."

"It wasn't deleted; it simply never existed at the read level."

Shen Jianjun's breathing became heavy. He didn't understand hacking techniques, but he understood the result.

I can't find anything.

This is even stranger than data being deleted, as deletion leaves traces.

But now, Shen Ze seems to be isolated from the entire information network.

The secretary added, "Mr. Shen, we also tried contacting Fengsheng Group's internal HR system, but their feedback was also abnormal."

"The name Shen Ze is not accessible to them; they can't even open the files of ordinary employees."

Shen Jianjun's expression changed completely.

Fengsheng Group is just an unlisted company, not a state-level classified entity.

How could someone not have permission to view the file of an ordinary marketing department employee?

Sun Mei couldn't believe it, her voice shrill and distorted: "Useless! You're all useless! You can't even find information on a poor kid?"

The hacker was also annoyed by the insults, but he kept his tone low because of the money involved.

"Ms. Sun, this is not information protection for ordinary people."

"If it's just a wealthy person hiring a team to handle privacy matters, I can bypass that."

"But in Shen Ze's case, it's as if all query paths have been blocked in advance."

"To be honest, even if we replaced them with several more top hackers, the result would be the same."

Outside the ward, as the voice on the phone faded, Shen Jianjun's face had turned extremely grim.

Sun Mei was still cursing: "Useless! A bunch of useless people! We spent so much money and couldn't even find out about Shen Ze!"

The hacker paused for two seconds, his tone turning colder: "Mr. Shen, I'll refund half the money, but I advise you, this person definitely has powerful backers. Continuing the investigation is very risky."

"risk?"

Sun Mei laughed as if she'd heard a joke. "What risks could a poor guy like him, living in an old neighborhood and eating instant noodles, possibly have?"

The hacker didn't argue further, only saying, "That's all I can say."

The phone hangs up.

Shen Jianjun held his phone, the veins on the back of his hand bulging.

He hates this feeling of being out of control the most.

Over the years, Jianjun Group has grown bigger and bigger, and he has become accustomed to having everything under control.

If you can't secure a project, just offer more money.

If someone doesn't listen, replace them.

If a competitor gets in your way, use resources to overwhelm them.

But Shen Ze is different.

The son he had lost for fifteen years seemed to suddenly rise from a pile of ashes.

Unable to find out anything, untouchable, yet dared to beat Sun Mei in public—the fire in Shen Jianjun's heart burned ever brighter.

Sun Mei covered her face, her voice hoarse from crying: "Jianjun, what are you standing there for? Congcong is lying inside waiting for his fate, and I've been beaten like this by him, are you just going to stand by and watch?"

Shen Jianjun raised his head, a fierce glint in his eyes: "Doesn't he work at Fengsheng Group?"

Sun Mei was taken aback: "What do you mean?"

"Since we can't find anything else about him, let's start with his work."

Shen Jianjun sneered, "What confidence can a young man who just graduated have? He just thinks I can't do anything about him for the time being."

"What is a company like Fengsheng Group compared to Jianjun Group?"

Jianjun Group, a long-established local enterprise in Shanghai, has long had assets exceeding 100 billion yuan.

Over the years, they've expanded their reach far and wide, engaging in building materials, real estate, engineering, and supply chain management. Many companies in Shanghai have to rely on Jianjun Group for their livelihood.

Fengsheng Group is valued at 80 million, which is considered a large company by ordinary people.

But in Shen Jianjun's eyes, it was nothing more than a tiny ant that he could crush with a flick of his wrist.

Sun Mei's eyes lit up: "Yes! Let Feng Sheng fire him!"

"Expulsion is not enough."

Shen Jianjun's voice was cold. "I want every company in Shanghai to know that anyone who dares to hire Shen Ze is going against Jianjun Group."

Sun Mei's face finally revealed her resentment: "Yes! Blacklist him! Make him lose his job, make it impossible for him to stay in Shanghai!"

"He's so tough, isn't he? I'll see how long he can stay tough without his job and income!"

Shen Jianjun dialed his secretary's number.

As soon as the call connected, he immediately ordered, "Li Geng, go to Fengsheng Group."

"Mr. Shen, please speak."

"Tell their general manager that there's an employee in the marketing department named Shen Ze, and I want them to fire him immediately."

Li Geng paused, then asked, "Shen Ze?"

"right."

Shen Jianjun narrowed his eyes. "Furthermore, in the name of Jianjun Group, we will declare that within Shanghai, any company, headhunter, or project team that dares to hire Shen Ze will be considered an enemy of Jianjun Group."

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone.

Li Geng had followed Shen Jianjun for many years, so he naturally understood the weight of those words.

This is not a normal dismissal; this is an industry blacklist.

For a recent graduate to be targeted like this by Jianjun Group is tantamount to a death sentence in the Shanghai job market.

Li Geng immediately replied, "Understood, Mr. Shen, I'll take care of it right away."

Upon hearing this, Sun Mei finally felt relieved.

She gritted her teeth and said, "That's not enough. Wait until he loses his job, then we'll send someone to find him. Didn't he refuse to save Congcong? Then we'll see if he'll kneel down!"

The ward door was suddenly pushed open.

Shen Cong sat on the hospital bed, his face pale, with tape on the back of his hand.

He had faintly heard the argument outside, especially the words "Shen Ze hit Sun Mei".

Shen Cong's eyes immediately reddened: "Mom, what happened to your face?"

Sun Mei turned around and saw her son, tears immediately streaming down her face: "Congcong, why are you up? Lie back down!"

Shen Cong stared intently at her swollen cheek: "Was it Shen Ze who hit you?"

Before Sun Mei could speak, Shen Cong had already smashed the water glass next to the IV stand.

With a bang, the glass shattered all over the floor.

"Who does he think he is!"

Shen Cong roared until his voice was hoarse, "A bastard dares to hit my mother?"

Shen Jianjun frowned: "Congcong, you're not feeling well right now, don't get agitated."

"How could I not be excited?"

Shen Cong's eyes were filled with resentment. "He not only refused to save me, but he also dared to hit my mother! Dad, what's the point of trying to reason with him?"

Sun Mei cried as she helped him up: "Congcong, don't be angry, your father has already sent people to blacklist him."
