Ning Qing and Chen Shulan looked outside the door.
Qin Ran stood outside the door at some point. She was holding a piece of paper in her hand, leaning against the door frame, with a half-smile on her face.
Her smile was partly casual, partly cold, and the rest was the evil that almost broke through her bones.
Ning Qing's appointment with the doctor was not that early, but she didn't want to send Qin Ran to school, so she lied.
She was somewhat embarrassed at the moment.
Qin Yu was a prominent figure at Hengchuan No. 1 Middle School. Ning Qing often attended parent-teacher conferences, and many people in the school knew that she was Qin Yu's mother.
At this time, she didn't want others to know that a bad student like Qin Ran was also her daughter.
She was resistant.
Chen Shulan was not stupid. After she got up, she tried to talk to Ning Qing.
She knew that she might not have much time left, but Qin Ran was still young. If she didn’t care, no one would.
...
...
Neither of them expected Qin Ran to come back.
Ning Qing looked at Qin Ran and opened her mouth, but she seemed powerless to explain. “Ran Ran, that’s not what Mom meant…”
She went from a country girl to a wealthy wife.
Except for Lin Qi and Lin Jinxuan, everyone else in the Lin family always looked at her with scrutiny and undisguised contempt.
Ning Qing spent twelve years, and with the help of Qin Yu, she finally gained a foothold. Although she seemed to have changed a lot, she was still inferior deep down.
Suddenly, someone like Qin Ran came. It was impossible for her not to feel depressed.
I just complained to Chen Shulan about what I just said.
I didn’t expect Qin Ran to hear it.
Qin Ran's expression did not change. She put one hand in her pocket and said in a tone that was not too impatient, "It doesn't matter."
Ning Qing looked at her in astonishment.
Chen Shulan sighed.
"Ranran, Mom was just too angry," Ning Qing found her voice and unconsciously wrapped the shawl around her shoulders, "You came back just in time, I had someone tidy up the house for you, you will live on the third floor from now on, I decorated it for you according to Yu'er's room..."
"No need, I just came to tell you something," Qin Ran squinted her beautiful eyes and said lazily, "I live in the dormitory."
After saying that, she turned sideways and went to the third floor to pack her things.
She didn't have much, just a black bag, a computer and a cell phone.
Chen Shulan followed Qin Ran into the room.
"It's fine to live in the dormitory," Chen Shulan stood at the door and looked at her for a long time, her expression a little depressed, "You have to get along well with your classmates and don't be too impatient..."
She said a lot, and Qin Ran listened patiently.
Her eyes swept across the guest room that Ning Qing had decorated not long ago. The color scheme was very warm, just like the kind Qin Yu liked. Qin Ran was not quite used to it.
She lowered her brows and packed slowly, zipping up her backpack with a "swish".
Chen Shulan stared at her, "Ran Ran, why did you lie to your mother?"
“Hmm?” Qin Ran threw her backpack behind her back, her eyebrows slightly raised, wild and wild, motioning Chen Shulan to continue.
"You played the violin very well when you were nine years old." Chen Shulan glanced at the warm-toned decoration in the room and pressed her forehead.
Qin Ran likes things in cool colors, including her clothes which are all in black and white.
"At that time, a teacher from the imperial capital came to Ninghai Village and wanted to take you as his apprentice. Why didn't you tell your mother?"
“There’s nothing much to say,” Qin Ran said lightly, wrapping her arm around Chen Shulan’s shoulders, and said, “Don’t worry too much. My aunt said that my mom was pretty when she was little, and you loved her the most. Now she’s taking you in to take care of her, so you can just focus on recuperating. I’ll go see you as soon as I have a holiday.”
To be fair, Ning Qing was very filial to Chen Shulan.
When people get old, they always want to have children and grandchildren around. Qin Ran knew what she was thinking about.
The two went downstairs.
Ning Qing sat on the sofa in the living room in a daze.
I saw Qin Ran coming down with a bag on her back, wearing her own white T-shirt.
She stood up and realized that Qin Ran was serious about living on campus.
She prepared a wardrobe full of beautiful dresses and brand-name bags for Qin Ran, but Qin Ran didn't bring any of them.
Ning Qing didn't react. She was holding the teacup in her hand and didn't know what to say.
How is it possible that there are people who don’t like living in a villa, wearing brand-name clothes, and carrying brand-name bags?
“I’m going to school. I’ll leave grandma to you. I’ll go to the hospital if I have time off.” Qin Ran put one hand in her pocket, her almond-shaped eyes looking murderous.
The Lin family lives close to the school and has a dedicated nutritionist.
The students in the third year of high school are busy with their studies and the pressure in No. 1 Middle School is high. Those whose families have the means will not choose to live in the school, and most parents accompany their children to study.
Ning Qing also knew that it would be best for Qin Ran to live in the Lin family.
But she paused as she watched Qin Ran walking out with her bag on her back. The sisters-in-law from the Lin family would be coming in a few days, so she didn't ask them to stay.
Ning Qing asked the driver to take Qin Ran away. “Your brother and your sister are both… Well, anyway, you should study hard.”
Watching Qin Ran leave, her tense nerves inexplicably relaxed.
Chen Shulan sent Qin Ran out and was about to take her to school when she was stopped by Qin Ran.
Chen Shulan stood at the gate. She knew that Qin Ran had a lot of strange things, which she treated as treasures.
But looking at the black backpack she was carrying on her back, Chen Shulan suddenly remembered that Qin Ran didn't bring her things to the Lin family at all.
From the beginning, she planned to live on campus.
**
Qin Ran did not go directly to school, but went to the bank first.
After queuing up, I got a number and went to the counter.
The lady at the counter looked at the diamond card she casually handed over, was stunned for a long while, and then stammered: "I, I'll go find our manager, I don't have enough authority..."
“Well,” Qin Ran half lowered her head, tapping the counter with her slender white fingers carelessly, “I’ll just transfer some funds.”
Generally speaking, few people who hold diamond cards come to the bank in person to handle business. It is the bank manager who comes to them to handle business.
Qin Ran transferred some funds, and the bank manager personally escorted her out.
The bank is not far from the school, less than ten minutes' walk.
Qin Ran thanked the Lin family driver and asked him to go back.
The driver just glanced at the bank worker who was smiling attentively not far away. The Lin family had never been to this bank before, so he didn't know him. Although he was surprised, he didn't say much.
Qin Ran took a shortcut back to school.
It was noon and the weather was hot.
"Where is the restaurant that Mr. Xu mentioned?" In the sunlight, Lu Zhaoying's earrings sparkled. He was holding his cell phone and making a call while looking around at the intersection.
Behind him, Cheng Juan followed slowly, not too far away.
The sun was shining brightly, but the black shirt he was wearing did not make him feel hot. The sunlight above his head blended with the shadows of the trees on the roadside.
The face has no expression, but it is good-looking, calm and clear.
He wanted to find a shade under a tree to wait for Lu Zhaoying to ask for directions. When he looked up, he saw a few people with chicken-feather-colored hair surrounding a little girl at the intersection on the left.
The little girl was holding a black bag in her hand, her fingers were desolate white, and she was wearing the No. 1 Middle School uniform jacket loosely draped over her.
Tall and thin.
She has a striking appearance and an indifferent expression.
Cheng Juan was stunned.
Lu Zhaoying asked for the specific location, hung up the phone, and saw the situation, "Hey, isn't this the girl with super good looks this morning?"
