“What’s wrong?” Lin Qi glanced over while holding his chopsticks.

Aunt Zhang frowned and said respectfully to Lin Qi, “It’s Old Master, and he seems pretty anxious…”

Lin Qi put down his chopsticks with a serious expression when he heard that it was Old Master.

He took the phone from Aunt Zhang and then said something to the Old Master.

“Jinxuan, go up, change your clothes, and come out with me,” Lin Qi hung up and said solemnly.

Lin Jinxuan was halfway through his meal, but he put down his chopsticks after hearing this. He knew that it wasn’t a small matter, so he got up and asked while heading upstairs, “Dad, what happened?”

“Chairman Feng’s son is in the hospital.” Lin Qi frowned.

Feng Loulan’s business wanted to expand, and several families in Yun Cheng were greedily trying to cooperate with her. It wasn’t easy for the Lin family to get this opportunity to cooperate, so they shouldn’t make a mistake now.

Qian Jinyu had been injured, and it was only right that they visited him in the hospital.

More than half an hour later, the two of them arrived at the hospital.

Old Master Lin stood in the corridor along with several people in the industry. They exchanged conventional greetings but were obviously divided at heart.

“Dad, what’s the situation?” Lin Qi approached and asked in a low voice.

Old Master Lin glanced at the ward, his cloudy eyes secretive. “That Young Master Qian just got beaten in Yun Cheng. We have yet to sign the contract with the Feng family.”

“Beaten in Yun Cheng?” Lin Jinxuan raised his eyebrow in surprise. “Who is so sold to dare to beat him on the Feng family’s territory?”

Not to mention Feng Loucheng, but the people in Yun Cheng didn’t dare to touch Feng Loulan either.

Old Master Lin shook his head unknowingly. “A few local gangsters also got beaten along with him.”

The three of them were talking when the next door’s ward was pushed open.

It wasn’t Feng Loulan who came out, but Feng Loulan’s a.s.sistant.

The group of people hurried over.

Feng Loulan’s a.s.sistant greeted them one by one, and then she looked over to Old Master Lin and paused before saying, “Chairman Lin, I wonder if you know this person?”

Her expression was strange.

Old Master Lin had doubts in his heart. “Who?”

“It’s a girl named Qin Ran, from First Middle School.” Feng Loulan’s a.s.sistant narrowed her eyes.

Old Master Lin was about to say something, but Lin Qi looked up and said solemnly, “What’s the matter?”

“I won’t hide it from you. I heard from Chairman Feng that she was the one who beat Young Master Qian.” She nodded slightly towards Lin Qi and then left.

Lin Qi’s expression was solemn.

Old Master Lin narrowed his eyes at the two of them. “Who’s Qin Ran?”

Lin Qi had long been separated from the Lin family.

When Ning Qing had brought Qin Ran back, she had warned Qin Ran but had failed to inform Old Master Lin.

After all, Qin Ran wasn’t an important person. Lin Qi didn’t report such trivial matters to the old master, so it was natural that he didn’t know who Qin Ran was until now.

After listening to Lin Qi’s explanation, Old Master Lin’s face sank.

“This Qin Ran doesn’t seem to know her place, unlike Qin Yu. What do you intend to do?” Old Master Lin finally spoke after a pause.

“This matter is probably not her fault. That Qian Jinyu had long taken a fancy to her.” Lin Qi paused and then sighed. “Dad, don’t worry, I don’t plan on recognizing her as my stepdaughter.”

When Qin Yu first came to the Lin family, the whole family recognized her and even held a banquet. But when Qin Ran came, Lin Qi had no such plans due to various considerations.

**

Qin Ran didn’t know that she had caused several changes due to her actions.

At this time, she was in the school doctor’s office.

Today, there was no examination during self-study and very few people actually came.

Cheng Mu brewed a cup of tea for her and placed it beside her. He couldn’t help but give Qin Ran another glance when he saw her holding the German book.

Qin Ran flipped a page and then looked up. “What’s wrong?”

“Nothing, I thought you were asleep.” Cheng Mu couldn’t help but say.

“I’m reading,” Qin Ran supported her chin with her hand and replied lazily.

“Really?” Cheng Mu glanced at her book in disbelief.

It was mainly because he had done such a thing before in school as well. He had bought more than a dozen criminal investigation books and put them in the dorm room, but in fact, he had never read a single page.

Cheng Mu walked away silently and continued to brew tea.

Cheng Juan glanced at him and suddenly remembered something. He knocked on the table with his hand and looked at Qin Ran. “Have you ever considered changing your part-time job?”

Qin Ran guessed that he was talking to her, so she looked up and asked casually, “Change my job?”

Cheng Juan took the tea beside him and took a sip slowly. He said in a light tone, “A job as a technician. We still lack a technician in Yun Cheng.”

“Huh?” Qin Ran stopped reading, leaned back against her chair, and raised an eyebrow.

“It’s better than your bubble tea job.” Cheng Juan was very patient with her.

Qin Ran touched her chin with one hand and smiled at him; her eyebrows were delicate and cool. “Is there pay?”

Cheng Juan paused and stared at Qin Ran for a few seconds expressionlessly. “How are your computer skills?”

“Average.” Qin Ran was very modest.

She probably didn’t even know that her eyebrows showed her self-confidence when she said this.

Cheng Juan put the teacup down and leaned on the back of the chair, chuckling.

“Average is fine.” Lu Zhaoying heard that she was interested and came over to pull a chair and sit down. “I give you the green light.”

Cheng Mu’s hand trembled and he almost overturned the teapot in his hand. He glanced subconsciously at Lu Zhaoying.

The green light?

“It’s not possible.” Qin Ran looked away with a lack of interest. “This stuff is boring.”

“Qin Ran, you only get one chance. Do you know how many people are lining up in Beijing to enter?” Lu Zhaoying raised his eyebrow and persuaded her.

“I won’t hide the truth from you, but many people in Beijing want me to join them.” Qin Ran propped her legs up.

Lu Zhaoying choked and asked mysteriously, “Do you know the hacker alliance? I can bring you in…”

“Oh.” Qin Ran picked up her book in disinterest. “I know.”

Yeah, right!

“Fine.” Lu Zhaoying choked again. He leaned his head on the table and turned sideways to Cheng Juan. “Master Juan, I can’t do it. It’s your turn.”

Cheng Juan nodded and then thought it was too cold, so he yawned and explained, “Don’t be so anxious, there will be many opportunities in the future. The most important thing for high school students is to study.”

Qin Ran glanced sideways at him and agreed deeply. “I also think I should study hard.”

Lu Zhaoying ground his teeth. “Yes, you should study hard. You might even score a few points.”

Cheng Mu stared blankly at them.

He didn’t dare to speak.

He only dared to pick up his phone.

He sent out a WeChat: [Do you know that someone actually rejected Young Master Lu’s internal invitation! If she knows about what she has refused, would she want to go back and strangle herself today?!]

After ranting, he found that there was no response.

Cheng Mu kept his phone, his face still as stiff as always.

But he couldn’t help but stare at Qin Ran. Was this girl born with a few missing brain cells?

After spending so much time with Young Master Lu and Master Juan, didn’t she feel like their ident.i.ties were far from normal?

Qin Ran continued reading her book.

But Cheng Juan thought of something and glanced at Cheng Mu.

Cheng Mu followed Cheng Juan out of the school doctor’s office and stopped in the courtyard.

“Lin Siran said that Ms. Qin seemed to have fought with someone.” Cheng Mu knew what Cheng Juan wanted to ask and whispered to him first.

Cheng Juan took out a cigarette and narrowed his eyes slightly. “Fight? With whom?”

“I don’t know the name.” Cheng Mu shook his head.

Cheng Juan nodded. “Okay, go in first.”

Early the next morning.

Ning Qing saw him when Lin Qi got up the next morning.

She found Old Master Lin sitting in the living room downstairs.

Ning Qing was shocked senseless. She went downstairs rigidly and folded her hands subconsciously. “What has brought you here?”

“I came mainly to deal with your daughter’s affairs.” Old Master Lin’s eyes narrowed imposingly.

Ning Qing felt a chill on her spine. The old man had always called Qin Yu by “Yu’er”, and the words “your daughter” were full of deep displeasure.

Almost without thinking, Ning Qing knew that Qin Ran had caused trouble again.

When Qin Ran received a phone call from Lin Jinxuan, she had yet to finish her lesson. Qin Ran opened the bathroom door and sat on the toilet seat.

“What do you mean? I’m going to be killed?” Qin Ran tucked her headphones into her ear and pulled on the cord subconsciously.

She counted with her fingers how many people wanted to kill her.

Those people did exist, but they were absolutely reluctant to kill themselves.

Lin Jinxuan looked up at the car outside and said in a light voice, “It’s the Feng family. You won’t know even if I tell you. Anyway, I’ve already taken leave for you. Come out first and I’ll wait for you outside the school gate. Grandpa will help you resolve this matter.”

Lin Jinxuan didn’t know that Qin Ran had beaten someone up.

But he was clear that Feng Loulan wanted to crush a high school student in Yun Cheng, so it wasn’t easy for him to retaliate.

He could only let Grandpa resolve it first, and then, regarding the business deal with the Feng family… it was probably gone.

Qin Ran sat on the toilet seat and thought for a long time before she finally remembered Qian Jinyu.

Although her temper was bad, she wasn’t the kind who liked to hit people.

So she hadn’t hit them hard yesterday. Qian Jinyu and the others could get up after resting in bed for two days.

But she didn’t expect Lin Jinxuan to find her.

Qian Jinyu probably played a critical role in the interests of the Lin family, and Qin Ran understood this key point.

She took her phone and sent Lin Siran a message, saying that she wouldn’t be returning to cla.s.s. Then, she went to find Lin Jinxuan.

She wasn’t afraid of Qian Jinyu but was afraid of implicating Lin Siran.

**

Qin Ran and Lin Jinxuan arrived at the hospital before nine o’clock.

Lin Jinxuan took her directly to the ward.

The ward door closed and Old Master Lin was in the corridor.

When she arrived, Ning Qing followed her with a flower basket.

“Listen to Wan’er. You have to practice the violin, so you can’t be distracted.” Old Master Lin looked at Qin Yu and nodded slightly.

Qin Yu pursed her lips and didn’t dare to say anything.

She didn’t have much contact with Old Master Lin and only knew that he was the impressive person who had founded the Lin family by hand.

In front of the Old Master, even Ning Qing didn’t dare to say or do anything.

Lin Jinxuan came in with Qin Ran at this time. “Grandpa, this is Sister Qin Ran.”

Qin Ran only realized now that Old Master Lin was in the Lin family.

She greeted him very politely. “Grandpa Lin.”

Before he had seen her, Old Master Lin had heard multiple versions of Qin Ran.

He looked her up and down at this time.

The little girl was wearing her school uniform, with her sleeves rolled up, and her face slightly raised. Her facial features were better than Qin Yu’s, but there was a sense of arrogance.

Old Master Lin responded slightly in a cold voice, then turned to look at Lin Jinxuan. “Okay, wait outside for me. I’ll go in with Jinxuan.”

Old Master Lin’s att.i.tude towards Qin Ran was definitely not warm.

Qin Yu lowered her head and concealed her smirk.

But this was to be expected. Why would the old master have good feelings towards her when she just disturbed a big business deal?

Ning Qing found an opportunity to walk to Qin Ran and said anxiously, “Why did you beat Young Master Qian? Do you know that Feng Loulan has connections with the gangsters and can kill you whenever she wants to?”

Ning Qing had heard all these when Qin Yu had checked on the information of the Feng family just now.

Ning Qing didn’t really know much about this world.

In her eyes, Feng Loucheng and the Feng family were outstanding figures and had deep connections in Yun Cheng. She had treaded carefully for so many years because she was afraid of offending people.

Qin Ran looked at her phone, lowered her head, and didn’t speak.

Ning Qing still wanted to say something, but she saw Old Master Lin coming out with Chairman Feng.

Feng Loulan looked extremely lethargic, but it didn’t conceal her imposing aura.

Qin Yu was very polite and obedient. “Chairman Feng.”

Feng Loulan’s sharp eyes glanced at her, then she looked away and ignored her.

“Other than Young Master Qian, this Feng family is full of proud and arrogant people, so only grandpa can talk to her,” Lin Jinxuan whispered and explained to Qin Ran.

Feng Loulan knew her son’s virtue and didn’t intend to delve into it. She was just about to let Old Master Lin and the others leave.

But when she glanced over at Qin Ran, she paused. “You’re… Ms. Qin?”
