Lin Qi said it again.
Then he saw the girl in front of him was silent for a moment.
Lin Qi thought about it and realized that what he just said was indeed about the violin, so why did Qin Ran have such an expression?
A minute later, Qin Ran came back to her senses and said without any emotion: “No need.”
When she was playing the violin, Qin Yu didn't even know where she was staying in that corner.
Lin Qi raised his eyes and glanced at Qin Ran, seemingly surprised by her choice.
There were no surprises he had expected.
"Well... I heard from your mother that you have done some research on computers, and the Lin family also has several computer industries. You can come to our company and slowly explore." Lin Qi suggested again.
“Thank you, uncle, but no thanks.” Qin Ran refused again.
"You don't have to be so hasty to reject me. This is a very good choice for you." Lin Qi's expression was a bit complicated, and he paused for a few seconds. "Uncle will give you a few days. If you change your mind, call me."
...
...
As he spoke, Lin Qi took out a business card from his pocket and handed it to Qin Ran.
Qin Ran lowered her eyebrows and slowly reached out to take it.
Lin Qi has always been good at speaking in the business world, but right now, he couldn't find any topic to talk about when he looked at the girl in front of him who had one hand in her pocket, her eyes half-lowered, and her whole body giving off the aura of "keep away from strangers".
He went downstairs with his cell phone.
Downstairs, Li Airong, who was standing by the window of Class 1 watching the students, saw Lin Qi coming down from the upstairs through the window. She narrowed her eyes slightly, as if she felt that the man looked familiar.
**
Qin Ran returned to Class 9. The afternoon self-study class was about to end.
Qiao Sheng changed seats with the student in front of her. When he saw her coming back, he turned sideways and sat on the chair, lowering his voice: "What did the teacher ask you to do?"
Qin Ran raised her hand and threw the business card on the table. She leaned lazily against the wall and said, "Encourage me to study hard."
Perhaps because of Qin Ran’s grades, Qiao Sheng laughed, “He actually asked you to study hard?”
He immediately found it interesting and stopped talking to the person in front of him. He curiously asked her if Gao Yang had anything else to say.
After asking a few questions, he saw the business card that Qin Ran had thrown aside.
Qiao Sheng picked it up and took a look. He was stunned and lowered his voice: "Lin Qi is looking for you?"
“Yeah.” Qin Ran slowly began to feel for the book in the hole in the table.
"Why did he look for you?"
Qin Ran spoke briefly.
"Wait, you've learned the violin?" Qiao Sheng was stunned. "Why haven't I heard you mention it, or seen you play it?"
"I learned it when I was a child." Qin Ran supported her chin with her hand and spoke in a low mood.
Qiao Sheng automatically translated it into that she was not good at learning the violin, which is the common reaction of most people.
Because she didn't mention it before. If she had learned it well, she would not have kept it to herself.
"Then why didn't you agree to his request?" Qiao Sheng put one hand on his desk and covered his face with an English book with the other hand. He leaned back and said, "Actually, what Uncle Lin said makes sense. It's better than you taking part-time jobs everywhere. This is your way of reconciling with the Lin family. Uncle Lin made some concessions."
After a pause, Qiao Sheng continued, "Besides, if you reject him, what will you do in the future? The Lin family still has some influence in Yuncheng. If you do this, will Uncle Lin think you are ungrateful?"
Qiao Sheng’s worries and doubts were justified.
Qin Ran is now Lin Qi's stepdaughter. Although she is called a stepdaughter, she cannot be compared with Qin Yu at all. Qin Yu grew up in the Lin family, so naturally, the Lin family will favor Qin Yu emotionally.
In Yuncheng, if one had the Lin family's support, one would obviously be able to live a good life, especially for someone like Qin Ran who had no background.
Lin Qi's two suggestions were both made from Qin Ran's perspective, and Qiao Sheng saw no harm in either.
Qin Ran didn’t know that Qiao Sheng had thought so much. She reached out and flipped through her extracurricular books. She glanced at Qiao Sheng and smiled contemptuously: “Who told you that I would stay in Yuncheng and rely on the Lin family?”
Qiao Sheng was stunned, his heart skipped a beat, as if he had grasped something, "Wait, what did you say?"
Qin Ran lowered her head and continued reading: "Nothing."
Qiao Sheng: "...Don't pretend that your IQ is higher than mine."
Your test score is not even one-third of mine.
Of course, he didn't dare say the latter sentence.
**
The next day, school was over in the afternoon.
Qin Ran and Lin Siran were going to the bookstore in the city center after school.
Li Airong assigned a new exercise book and asked students to select some questions to discuss tomorrow.
"Take another bus," Qin Ran put her phone to her ear and talked to Cheng Juan as she got off the bus, "Wait for me for another 20 minutes."
The two had to turn a corner to reach another bus stop.
Lin Siran, who was walking in front of her, suddenly stopped.
Qin Ran hung up the phone casually, raised her eyes, and saw a group of seven or eight strong men.
The weather is not that hot as November approaches, so people basically wear a coat.
These seven or eight men were only wearing vests, with large tattoos on their exposed arms and shoulders, which looked both ferocious and alluring.
He was holding a steel knife and a steel rod in his hands, and he looked like a gangster.
Lin Siran paused and took a step back involuntarily.
He looked a little uneasy when he tilted his head to look at Qin Ran.
“Our young master invites you.” The leading man bit his cigarette and looked at Qin Ran wantonly. “This girl is from Hengchuan No. 1 Middle School. She’s a good student.”
“I don’t want to see you. Please make way for me. Thank you.” Qin Ran put her phone back into her pocket and looked at the group of gangsters. She lowered her voice and spoke briefly.
Seeing Lin Siran was nervous, she reached out and patted Lin Siran's shoulder with a strong sense of comfort.
"It's the car at the intersection ahead." The guy took a step forward and pointed at a sports car parked at the intersection, looking very imposing.
Qin Ran raised her eyes, pinched her wrist, and said gently, "It seems that you don't understand what I'm saying."
**
Cloud City Center Bookstore.
It occupies the seventh and eighth floors of the shopping mall.
Cheng Mu stood beside a row of bookshelves, holding a cell phone and talking to the person on the other end of the phone, "I don't know about 129. I've only been in Yuncheng for a short time. You can ask Master Lu."
I don't know what was said over there.
Cheng Mu had a numb face and he looked up in the direction of Cheng Juan.
Cheng Juan was standing in front of a row of shelves, looking very carefully at the rows of high school review materials on the shelves. Occasionally, he would pick up something he saw and flip through it.
Quiet and focused, a few girls not far away have been walking around these rows for a long time and haven't left.
"What is Master Juan doing?" Cheng Mu wiped his face and said in a self-deprecating tone: "Old Jin, believe me, you don't want to know about this."
Cheng Mu said a few more words before hanging up the phone.
Then he picked up the basket beside him, followed Cheng Juan respectfully, and put the books he had chosen into the basket.
Cheng Mu looked at the pile of things in the basket.
He thought expressionlessly, who could have known that Master Cheng, who was almost omnipotent in the capital, was currently in a bookstore in Yuncheng, honestly picking out college entrance examination review materials for others?
"Cheng Jin?" Cheng Juan put the paper in his hand into the basket and asked sideways.
Cheng Mu nodded. "He wants to find out about Lone Wolf. Last time Lone Wolf took our order, it caused quite a stir in the capital."
“He only took one order from us?” Cheng Juan turned his head, his expression seemingly unchanged.
"Cheng Jin said so. He has been hiding for a year and only took our order," Cheng Mu lowered his voice, "Now many people in Beijing are investigating us."
However, 129 has done a good job of keeping secrets, and no news has leaked out for the time being.
"Hmm." Cheng Juan narrowed his eyes, thinking.
He picked up a book of college entrance examination review materials and looked at the table of contents. The lighting in the bookstore was bright but not glaring. His fingers were cold white under the light.
He lowered his eyes and flipped through the book nonchalantly, looking quite lazy, but he always showed his dignity and distance.
This is also one of the reasons why the girls not far away didn't dare to come forward and talk to them.
Cheng Juan didn't have to wait long before Qin Ran and Lin Siran arrived.
“I’ll give those two reference books to you two.” Cheng Juan motioned Cheng Mu to show the basket to Qin Ran. After a pause, he continued, “I’ve got you other reference books.”
Qin Ran stared at the "Mathematics Advanced Plan" on top of the basket. After a long while, she said tiredly, "Okay."
Cheng Juan had almost finished browsing the bookstore, and turned to ask the two of them, "Is there anything else you want to buy?"
When he turned sideways, his eyes naturally turned to Qin Ran and noticed her slightly wrinkled sleeves.
"Si Ran has two more documents. Please wait a moment. I will go with her to get them." Qin Ran did not let Cheng Juan follow them.
Cheng Juan has a sense of distance. Like most people, Lin Siran subconsciously tenses up when she sees him.
"Okay, I'll go to the cashier first." Cheng Juan nodded and left with Cheng Mu.
Cheng Mu put the basket in his hand on the cashier counter without paying first, and waited for Lin Siran and Qin Ran to come together.
"Cheng Mu, find a way to ask Lin Siran," Cheng Juan leaned lazily against the cashier counter, his hand against his lips, and whispered, "Did anything happen when they came?"
"Okay." Cheng Mu nodded, without any doubt about Cheng Juan's instructions.
**
This way.
Lin Siran turned around and looked for a book on the bookshelf. She pursed her lips, but finally couldn't help but said, "Ran Ran, what is your relationship with Mr. Cheng?"
Qin Ran thought for a moment and said, "Hire."
Lin Siran: "..." She didn't think so.
But she didn't say it.
Lin Siran took two books that she wanted, and Qin Ran also took a few original books.
Mr. Cheng obviously would not do things like paying the bill himself. Cheng Mu, as his name suggests, is dull and boring, but he is very knowledgeable.
Otherwise, Cheng Juan wouldn't have taken him on the business trip alone.
Cheng Mu took Qin Ran and Lin Siran's books and paid for them together.
When handing the last few books to the cashier, Cheng Mu paused.
He took a look at the book in his hand. It was a Chinese book. Since Cheng Jin minored in Chinese in college, he knew a few words and recognized that it was a book of original Chinese poetry.
If you look further down, you will find the original English text.
“Miss Qin, did you take the wrong book?” Cheng Mu took out the books and asked Qin Ran sideways.
Qin Ran took a look and said, "Yes, these three."
"Okay." Cheng Mu nodded. He was not a talkative person.
I guess Qin Ran either brought it for someone else, or used it to show off.
**
Almost at the same time.
A private room in a restaurant in Yuncheng.
"Boss Feng, this is our proposal," the old man said with a gentle face, but his slightly cloudy eyes were full of brilliance. He pushed a folder across the table and said, "You can take a look."
The woman opposite was wearing a black suit and had short hair. She was meticulously groomed and had a very graceful demeanor.
She is Feng Loucheng’s sister, Feng Loulan.
She put her hand on the document politely, but didn't look at it. Instead, she raised her head and said, "Mr. Lin, you should know that I talked to your son a few days ago. Among so many companies in Yuncheng, I still like your Lin family..."
The two were chatting.
There was a knock on the door of the box.
The person who came was Feng Loulan's secretary. She was holding Feng Loulan's personal mobile phone and looked panicked.
Feng Loulan's secretaries were carefully selected. This secretary had been with her for nearly ten years and was highly valued by Feng Loulan.
Normally, she wouldn't be so reckless when talking about business.
"Sorry." Feng Loulan spoke apologetically to Master Lin.
Mr. Lin picked up the tea and smiled: "No problem."
"Boss Feng," the secretary said without saying much, looking unhappy, and directly handed the phone to Feng Loulan, "Young Master Qian is in the hospital now!"
"With a crackling sound" -
Feng Loulan pulled out the chair and stood up, his expression changed drastically: "What?!"
She hurriedly took her bag and walked out of the box.
The cooperation had just been agreed upon, and since it was not appropriate for Mr. Lin to leave, he followed them to the hospital.
**
An hour later.
The Lin family sat at the dining table to eat. The table had been unusually quiet these days.
Ning Qing was in a daze, not knowing what she was thinking.
The phone in the living room suddenly rang.
This is strange. Everyone in the Lin family has a cell phone and few of them use landlines.
Mrs. Zhang wiped her hands, saw the caller ID, and answered the phone respectfully: "Grandpa."
I don’t know what was said on the other end, but Mrs. Zhang’s expression changed.
