“Jiahang…” He Xiyan cried out in shock.
She guessed that someone must have e today and this person had touched her puter and even installed the latest Windows 7 system.
Chen Jiahang who was doing the dishes walked out when he heard her call his name.
He looked at He Xiyan and he was a picture of innocence. He didn’t know why she was looking at him so strangely.
“How could you let strangers enter our house?” He Xiyanasked.
They had just moved in and there were several unsavory characters around their neighborhood including several salespeople. She had told him many times not to open the door to strangers and to not let anyone into the house.
Jiahang was a little slow intellectually, so she was worried that someone might try to take advantage of him when she wasn’t around.
Chen Jiahang froze and shook his head in confusion. He didn’t know what she was talking about.
He didn’t let anyone in. He had already mitted her words to memory and knew that he wasn’t supposed to let strangers into the house.
He Xiyan pointed at the puter and asked, “Jiahang, what happened to my puter? I clearly remembered turning it off yesterday.”
It was strange that the operating system would change when she wasn’t even using it. If Jiahang didn’t let any strangers into the house, could her puter be down with some kind of virus?
But it was impossible for a virus to infect her puter if it had been turned off.
Chen Jiahang walked over, took out a pen and notebook, then scribbled something that left He Xiyan speechless in shock, “I used this puter in the afternoon.”
He Xiyan didn’t know how to react. She suddenly felt as though she had been struck by lightning.
She looked at Chen Jiahang in disbelief, her eyes widening. She had never felt so stunned during her time with him.
“What did you say?” she asked, as though she found his words hard to believe.
This seemed too unbelievable.
Chen Jiahang nodded. Then, he walked to the puter, opened a .txt file and typed something on the puter, “I turned the puter on. Yan Yan, I know how to use a puter.”
He Xiyan was stunned.
She was pletely shocked and stood there for a long while in stunned silence. She looked so taken aback that it was as though the sun had risen from the west that day.
She looked at the words he typed and noticed that his typing speed wasn’t slow. Moreover, he was using the stroke method to type instead of romanized pinyin.
This was just….
He Xiyan couldn’t believe her eyes.
“You…” she said as she bit her lip. She suddenly didn’t know what to say.
“I can help you sell your goods online. Look, I know how to use a puter and I can type,” Chen Jiahang typed with a smile. His smile was childlike and innocent as he looked at He Xiyan. He didn’t know why he could use a puter either. It seemed like an innate ability to him.
He Xiyan was still in a state of shock.
She looked at Chen Jiahang, her eyes full of astonishment.
“Where did you learn this?” she suddenly asked.
After living with Chen Jiahang for around nine months, she couldn’t help but think that there was something odd about him. When she asked him about his childhood, he claimed that he had forgotten. When she asked why his handwriting was so precise, he also claimed that he had forgotten. What seemed even fishier was that when she asked the other villagers about his parents, no one in the village seemed to know where his mother was.
She assumed that Jiahang was in this state because he had hit his head when he was young, or contracted some kind of high fever as a child, so she was surprised to find that he could use a puter and even install an operating system.
This was not something children who only had an elementary education would be able to pick up.
