Cheng Mu heard Lu Zhaoying and the others talk about what happened to Principal Xu at school.

But I have never seen him in the school clinic. I have seen too many people in Yuncheng recently. When Cheng Mu saw Principal Xu, he was stunned for a moment and then numb: "Who are you looking for?"

Mr. Jun or Mr. Lu?

The Lu family has an average relationship with the Xu family, but the Cheng family has some dealings with the Xu family.

The door was open. From where Principal Xu was looking, he could see Qin Ran putting her phone on the table.

Principal Xu retracted his gaze and nodded slightly to Cheng Mu, "I'm looking for Qin Ran."

Miss Qin?

Cheng Mu was stunned for a moment. Although he was surprised, he finally reacted.

“Miss Qin, Principal Xu is looking for you outside.” He turned back to find Qin Ran.

Qin Ran had just picked up the black bag that Yang Fei had given her. When she heard these words, she paused, then put the bag down and walked out.

...

...

After Qin Ran left, Cheng Mu was a little out of shape.

He watched Qin Ran leave the school clinic.

"Mr. Lu," he thought for a moment, then looked at Lu Zhaoying who was sorting new items with a list, and lowered his voice, "Is Principal Xu familiar with Miss Qin? Why did he look for her?"

Lu Zhaoying placed a white medicine bottle on the glass cabinet. Hearing this, he tilted his head slightly, "Does he want to take her as his apprentice too?"

He remembered what Principal Xu had said before about finding a successor.

The action of putting medicine on the hand also slowed down.

"...Are you serious?" Cheng Mu took the kettle and poured a glass of water again.

For Master Wei, that is a skill, but for Principal Xu, it is not simply a matter of skill. His choice will change the structure of the Xu family and the structure of the capital.

With so many people watching in Beijing, if he really wanted to find Qin Ran, the whole city would be in turmoil.

Lu Zhaoying sorted the medicines into categories, then placed the prescription on the table. He glanced at Cheng Juan inside and thought about the possibility of this matter.

In the yard.

Qin Ran looked at Principal Xu who had been staring at her and couldn't help coughing. It was windy outside, so she put the hood of her coat on her head and asked, "Principal Xu, are you looking for me?"

"Yeah," Principal Xu nodded, without looking away, "I heard you had a teacher-apprenticeship banquet last night?"

“Yes, there is one.” Qin Ran was stunned for a moment, and she reached out and pulled the brim of her hat.

She did not tell Principal Xu about this.

Cheng Juan, Lu Zhaoying and Chen Shulan had been informed, so Qin Ran didn’t say anything. However, Principal Xu was different.

His presence was more than just a guest.

Principal Xu was silent for a moment. He held up his reading glasses and said, "The teacher is Wei Lin, right? You told me at that time that you didn't want to go to Beijing, so you rejected my request. Have you changed your mind now?"

Qin Ran lowered her eyes and said nothing.

Principal Xu didn't wait for her to answer, and then asked faintly: "Do you have any problem with me?"

“Ah,” Qin Ran looked up and smiled. “No, Principal Xu, why do you think so? Let me think about it again.”

She didn't tell Principal Xu that the matter with Master Wei was handled by Chen Shulan alone.

The fact that she was willing to think about it proved that there was still room for negotiation on this matter.

Principal Xu continued to look at her dimly, "Then you should think it over carefully."

Qin Ran didn't say anything for a long while before she spoke, "I'll consider it."

Principal Xu had originally come to Qin Ran to discuss the issue of succession. After so many years of persuasion, she had always refused outright. Now that she had finally relented, he was slightly cheered up. “Then you consider it.”

It was only for a short moment that his heart ached again when he thought of her agreeing to Master Wei.

Principal Xu said a few words, then walked out with his hands behind his back.

There was some progress today, but compared to what he had done for Wei Lin, this little progress was not worth mentioning at all.

Principal Xu walked outside the door of the school clinic, thought for a moment, then took out his cell phone and walked towards the car while talking on the phone.

School clinic.

When Qin Ran came back, Cheng Juan was taking her other gifts to the sofa.

"Qin Xiaoran, why did Principal Xu look for you?" Lu Zhaoying went to the kitchen and brought out a few pairs of chopsticks.

Qin Ran squatted beside the sofa and took them out one by one. Without even raising her head, she replied, "You care about my studies."

"Oh." Lu Zhaoying nodded, reluctantly accepting it.

Qin Ran opened the bag Yang Fei gave her, paused, and then closed it expressionlessly.

“What did Yang Shen send? Let me see!” Lu Zhaoying was about to reach out his hand, but Qin Ran glanced at him and he retracted his hand.

Pan Mingyue's things were packed in the backpack.

Qin Ran opened it and took a look. It was a video.

From her birthday video when she was nine to her nineteenth year old, Pan Mingyue, like her mother, has loved photography since she was a child. Whenever she went out to play, she would always take pictures of a lot of ancient buildings.

These birthday videos were initially recorded by Pan Mingyue's mother, and after she turned sixteen, Pan Mingyue took over.

Qin Ran was never very patient to record these things, so she would leave them at Pan Mingyue's house after recording them.

The eighteen-year-old broke.

Qin Ran opened the video box of her 18th birthday, which contained a bunch of photos from when she was seven to nineteen years old.

Lu Zhaoying wanted to reach out and take a look at her photo, but Cheng Juan was sitting next to the sofa. He did nothing but squinted his eyes and glanced at Lu Zhaoying indifferently.

Lu Zhaoying withdrew his hand again, not daring to touch it again, and then touched the earring again, "Qin Xiaoran, are you so familiar with Pan Mingyue?"

Looking at the photo at the top, the cold girl with short hair, squinting eyes and a rather impatient look, it was obvious at first glance that it was Qin Ran.

The girl around her who was about her age also smiled with her eyes narrowed, looking bright and energetic with youth.

Lu Zhaoying was stunned. This didn't look like Pan Mingyue.

Cheng Juan slowly withdrew his gaze and stopped looking at these things. Instead, he took the glass bottle hanging on Qin Ran's violin, looked at it for a while, and then put it back.

Qin Ran packed Pan Mingyue's things and took Gu Xichi's plastic bag.

"Is this a gift from your friend, Miss Qin?" The bag from Huamei Supermarket was too eye-catching, and Cheng Mu could tell it at a glance.

He put the tea and dishes on the table and glanced over here. This was the most normal gift he had seen last night.

Qin Ran reached down carelessly, and a pink diamond larger than a coin rolled out, without any cutting or polishing.

It rolled all the way along the sofa to the table, reflecting the light from the window of the school infirmary.

Cheng Mu: “…”

He was stunned for a moment, then squatted down stiffly, reached out to pick up the pink diamond on the table, and looked up, "Ms. Qin, this is..."

Cheng Mu had seen the pink diamond, but he had never seen it up close.

This pink diamond is a bit too gorgeous and beautiful, Cheng Mu doesn't dare to say it is crystal.

Lu Zhaoying turned his eyes away from the backpack Pan Mingyue gave Qin Ran. "What?"

He didn't see Pink Diamond clearly.

Qin Ran took it expressionlessly and threw it back into the plastic bag. She said even more exaggeratedly than Cheng Mu, "It's nothing, just a piece of glass."

"Oh." Cheng Mu came back to his senses and nodded.

He could barely accept the glass in the plastic bag.

Lu Zhaoying didn’t see clearly, he said “Oh”, nodded, and then moved closer to Qin Ran, “Qin Xiaoran, when are we going to the Magic City to watch Yang Shen and his team compete?”

“Not necessarily.” Qin Ran packed all the gifts, frowned, and replied coolly.

She remembered the report sheet that Gu Xichi had sent her.

After thinking for a while, he took out his phone again, flipped through the picture and handed it to Cheng Juan, "Do you know what this is?"

Cheng Juan leaned on the sofa. The school clinic had the air conditioner on. He was not wearing a coat, and his black shirt was slightly wrinkled.

He reached out and took the phone, taking a look at it.

He was sitting in a lazy posture, but when he saw the test contents, he narrowed his eyes, sat up straight again, his eyebrows were serious, and he pointed at the screen of his mobile phone with his fingertips: "Who gave you this test report?"

"A friend." Qin Ran pursed her lips. "My grandmother's medical report."

"Radiation..." Cheng Juan stood up and murmured.

Then he pushed open the glass door and walked towards his desk.

**

On this side, Master Wei also answered calls from violin associations across the country in and around the hotel.

They all asked him about Qin Ran's news.

Master Wei did not make a big fuss about Qin Ran's incident, and would announce it to the media after he went to Beijing next year.

"Tell me, how did Miss Qin know people from the Cheng family and the Lu family?" Uncle Hai finally came to his senses today. This matter was indeed beyond his expectations.

Master Wei shook his head and smiled, "I wanted to pave the way for her, but I didn't expect that she almost paved the way for me."

When he said this, he sighed a little.

After returning last night, Jiang Hui specially thanked him for finding Captain Qian.

Uncle Hai poured a glass of water and handed it to Master Wei who was sitting on the sofa: "The Cheng family, the Lu family, and the Jiang family are all here, and we are still missing the Xu family and the Ouyang family. The five families will be complete. The Ouyang family is easy to deal with, but the Xu family has always been aloof and not easy to get along with..."

At this point, Uncle Hai shook his head, smiled, and wondered what he was thinking.

At this time, there was a knock on the door.

Mr. Xu: You didn’t expect that, did you? (Smile)

Next time I go to the Magic City, I should get a great god vest.

Good morning^_^
