Hao Dui just felt that Lu Zhaoying was thinking too much. No matter what Mr. Xu chose, he would not give up the bunch of young talents in Beijing and come to Yuncheng to find a high school student.
Anyway, no matter from which perspective, Hao Dui and Cheng Mu both didn't quite believe it.
If that were true, the capital would be in shock.
Hao Dui thought for a moment and continued, "Mr. Lu, if Mr. Xu really found an unknown person in Yuncheng and brought him back to Beijing, the Xu family wouldn't accept it, right?"
Lu Zhaoying sat on the chair without moving.
He lowered his head as if thinking about something.
Hao Dui and Cheng Mu looked at each other and went out to get the car.
After the two of them left, Lu Zhaoying raised his head. He touched his earring unconsciously and turned his head to look at Cheng Juan: "Master Juan, do you think the heir that Old Xu told us about is likely to be Qin Xiaoran?"
Logically speaking, it is indeed unlikely.
Compared with Qin Ran, Mr. Xu's status in the capital is like an elephant and an ant.
...
...
Do you think an elephant would find an ant as his heir?
If Principal Xu hadn't told Lu Zhaoying and the others that he had found a successor, Lu Zhaoying wouldn't have thought of this.
Cheng Juan picked up the silver needle on the table, lowered his eyebrows, and seemed to be thinking about something.
His expression is always lazy, but his simple eyebrows and eyes always make people convinced.
After a long while, he said confidently, "I don't know."
Lu Zhaoying: “…”
**
Next to Captain Qian’s case handling building.
Hao Dui stopped the car, opened the door, and looked at Cheng Mu who was sitting in the passenger seat: "Why is Mr. Xu also in Yuncheng?"
Not to mention Cheng Juan and Lu Zhaoying, Qi Chengjun has also returned to Jiang Hui, and now the Xu family has to be added to the list.
Lu Zhaoying sat in the back seat, holding his phone in one hand and supporting himself with the other as he got out of the car.
He was silent all the way and didn't say a word.
"Not sure." Cheng Mu closed the passenger door and moved the file in his hand to the other side.
"Mr. Xu's successor hasn't been found yet, right?" Hao Dui locked the car door and the three of them walked towards the office lobby.
Captain Qian and his team have been investigating the case day and night. Now the hall is filled with people moving back and forth and the lights are on.
"Mr. Lu," Captain Qian was in a meeting with someone. When he saw the two of them, he stood up from his chair and took the file from Cheng Mu's hand. "Ms. Qin, what have you been doing these days? Why are you free today?"
Hearing Captain Qian talking about this, Cheng Mu was silent for a moment, then spoke with a slightly tired look: "She has an exam and was reviewing a few days ago."
Captain Qian nodded and said nothing.
He only talked more when it came to Qin Ran.
He took the data and went to find the technicians.
Hao Dui and Cheng Mu stood in the middle of the hall and did not dare to move.
"Captain Qian, do you trust Qin Xiaoran so much?" Lu Zhaoying picked up a cup of tea and spoke casually, "Captain Qian, she is only in the third year of high school. How did you know each other before? Why do I see that you all seem to respect her so much and have no doubts when it comes to her?"
"I knew him from a previous case." Captain Qian said concisely.
"A case from three years ago?" Lu Zhaoying leaned to the side, looked at Captain Qian, and lowered his voice.
Captain Qian didn't say anything.
"That's her. The case you were investigating in Ninghai Town three years ago, the one that shocked the criminal investigation community, was related to her, right?" Lu Zhaoying looked at Captain Qian with a sharp gaze. "Who is Qin Ran?"
Captain Qian paused and said, "Mr. Lu, I have no comment." Lu Zhaoying was just speaking casually, but he didn't expect Captain Qian to react so strongly.
He looked at Captain Qian's back as he left, and couldn't help but reach out and touch his earrings.
Fall into deep thought.

The next day.
Wednesday, the last class in the morning, biology class.
The biology teacher looked very happy and opened the paper. "We finished the multiple-choice questions yesterday, right? Today we will start with the last question of the main topic. The last question is a genetic map. There are four genetic genes in total, and four dominant and recessive positions. It is a bit complicated. Let's ask a classmate to help us sort it out..." As he spoke, the biology teacher looked around the classroom.
Qin Ran paused with her pen in her hand and hid her head behind a pile of books with an expressionless face.
The biology teacher on the podium smiled and said, "I see that the students are eager to try. Okay, Qin Ran, it's you!"
...No, when did you see my eager eyes?
Qin Ran raised her hand and threw the pen on the table, then pulled out a chair and stood up.
With his brows lowered, he looked silent and cold, and there seemed to be a dark aura shrouding his brows.
The other students in Class Nine were no longer surprised.
Now Qin Ran was called upon three times in every class on average.
After finishing the question, Qin Ran sat back in her chair and started to read an original book. The biology teacher saw it but didn't say anything.
After class, Qin Ran waited slowly for the other students to leave.
Others knew her habit and it didn't bother her.
But she didn't expect that Li Airong was standing at the classroom door waiting for her.
Qin Ran raised her head and stared at Li Airong with her dark eyes for a long while, causing Li Airong to take a step back involuntarily.
She then smiled nonchalantly, put her cap on her head, and put her hands in her pockets, "Teacher Li, do you want to talk to me about something?"
The ending tone is frivolous and stinging.
“Student Qin Ran, I want to apologize to you for what happened last time.” Li Airong lowered her head.
Qin Ran originally thought that she was here to cause trouble for her, but she didn’t expect that she was here to apologize to her. She raised her eyebrows and touched her chin as she watched Li Airong run away after apologizing.
It's a bit strange. Someone like Li Airong should be secretly cursing her for her poor grades or her poor physics grades somewhere.
Why did you suddenly come to apologize to me?
Before Qin Ran could think about anything, her phone suddenly rang. She took a look and saw that it was Ning Qing.
No answer, just hung up.
**
At the same time, Yuncheng Hospital.
Ning Qing put down her phone, frowning. She tucked the corner of the quilt for Chen Shulan, "Ranran didn't answer my call." Chen Shulan closed her eyes, looking unhappy, "Then don't let her go. She's still in her third year of high school and will take the college entrance exam next year. It'll take a long time to go back and forth, and it's a waste of time."
Hearing Chen Shulan's words, Ning Qing paused with her hand tucked in the corner of the quilt, and the corner of her mouth twitched slightly. She wondered if it made any difference whether Qin Ran went to class or not.
But Chen Shulan was ill, and she didn't want to say more about this matter. She just said, "Take her to the capital. The capital is much more prosperous than our Yuncheng. Let Ranran see it. Maybe she will study hard to get into the capital after she comes back, or agree to join the Feng family and go to the Feng family."
After all, the Feng family also has a foothold in the capital.
"What's there to see?" Chen Shulan closed her eyes slightly, her voice weak, "The Lin family is still considered a local snake in Yuncheng, but after going to the capital, they are restricted no matter where they go. What's the good of it?"
Hearing Chen Shulan say this, Ning Qing suddenly felt irritated.
When she married Qin Hanqiu, she was attracted by his face. Unfortunately, Qin Hanqiu only had a good look and was not ambitious. His whole life he had only set his sights on a small place like Ninghai Town.
Chen Shulan has always had a low vision.
She told Ning Qing that Qin Hanqiu was honest, but what was the use of being honest?
Who doesn’t go to a big city to study in college nowadays? Who would be willing to stay in a rural town?
That’s why Ning Qing divorced Qin Hanqiu so that she could find the Lin family.
"Mom, stop talking. What do you know? Ranran has just become like you because she has been with you for a long time," Ning Qing interrupted Chen Shulan. "I'll go ask Ranran later."
Chen Shulan was in a bad mood. She also knew that Ning Qing was always carefree, so she didn't say anything more to Ning Qing and just closed her eyes and fell asleep.
Ning Qing stayed in the hospital the whole time. She waited until Chen Shulan fell asleep before she got up quietly.
Instead of going back, he went to Chen Shulan's attending physician's office and knocked on the door.
"What do you want?" The attending doctor stopped writing, looked at Ning Qing in surprise, and pointed at the chair opposite, "Sit down." Ning Qing sat up and put her bag on her lap, "Doctor, what's wrong with my mother's illness? She was fine a few years ago, why is she so seriously exposed to radiation? I asked, and there are no chemical factories or anything like that in my hometown."
"Not in recent years, but more than a decade ago, she was exposed to radiation. She must have been taking medicine during this period," the doctor adjusted his glasses, "but because her body has entered a period of aging in recent years, these symptoms have erupted at the same time."
"Then..." Ning Qing pursed her lips and thought of something else: "CNS, is this medicine really hard to get?"
"It's difficult. Our hospital can't get the experimental drugs from the laboratory now," the doctor said, straightening his expression. "We can only rely on Miss Qin."
Ning Qing's expression became even more complicated after hearing what the doctor said.
Now that Chen Shulan has recovered from her illness, Ning Qing has the energy to think about other things.
Even Lin Jinxuan couldn’t get the experimental drug in a short period of time, so how did Qin Ran’s friend get it? How could she have such a friend? When did she make him? ?After she finished talking to the doctor, she went back to the ward and stayed there for the whole afternoon, watching the time.
She left the ward when No. 1 Middle School was about to finish school in the evening. She called Qin Ran again, but the call didn’t go through.
She asked the driver to take her to No. 1 Middle School to find Qin Ran.
**
One middle school.
After school in the afternoon, Qin Ran was called by the teacher again.
Just as she expected.
Qin Ran half leaned against the wall, feeling a little tired.
"Sister Ran, shall we go to the cafeteria together?" Qiao Sheng and his group stayed a little longer as they were discussing how to sneak into the OST performance.
Qin Ran thought for a moment, put her cap in the hole of the desk, and slowly took the thermos cup. "I'm going to the school clinic."
When I went to the cafeteria, I was surrounded by a group of people.
Qiao Sheng nodded. He didn’t like going to the cafeteria recently. “Then let’s go downstairs together.”
Along the way, Qiao Sheng and He Wen were talking about Yang Fei.
"I remember now," Qiao Sheng stopped spinning the basketball in his hand, "Sister Ran, you are also a fan of the OST, right? We are going to sneak into the scene disguised as staff members next week, are you coming?"
Qin Ran, who was labeled as an OST fan, no longer refuted. She said lazily: "No." The two walked downstairs and saw Mu Ying waiting on the side of the road.
“Cousin!” Mu Ying waved vigorously at Qin Ran. “Hello, senior.”
There were several of her classmates around her.
Qiao Sheng glanced at her and hummed nonchalantly, with the frivolity of a young man.
Qin Ran also stopped talking, her tone calm, she just squinted her eyes slightly, frivolous, yet determined, "What's the matter?"
Mu Ying couldn't help but glance at Qiao Sheng, then spoke carefully, "Auntie wants to see you. She's at the intersection outside."
"I understand." Qin Ran said without showing any expression.
"Sister Ran, then you go out first, I'll wait for you here." Qiao Sheng lowered his head slightly.
He was asking for her opinion.
Qin Ran was very calm. She put her hands in her pockets and said expressionlessly, "No, go play ball."
“Okay.” Qiao Sheng watched Qin Ran leave before throwing the ball to the court.
After the two of them left, the people around Mu Ying were a little bit unbelieving, "Is she really your cousin? Young Master Qiao seems to be more willing to listen to her."
Of course Mu Ying felt it. She looked at Qin Ran's back with a complicated expression, "Yeah."
**
Ning Qing's car was parked on the side of the road and was easy to find.
"Speak." Qin Ran opened the passenger seat and sat in it, speaking concisely.
Ning Qing was sitting in the back, applying lipstick with a small mirror. She raised her eyes and said, "That's right, last time I told you about going to the capital..."
Before Ning Qing could finish her words, Qin Ran simply refused: “No.”
"Why?" Ning Qing paused and put away her lipstick.
I can’t understand why Qin Ran gave up all the chances she had.
Even if the Feng family didn't say anything, this was the matter that made her heart bleed the most.
They were both her daughters. Now that Qin Yu had a place to stay, Ning Qing hoped that Qin Ran could also find a place to stay.
Qin Ran paused for a long while before speaking: "There's nothing good in the capital."
Almost the same answer as Chen Shulan's.
"You've been with your grandmother for too long, so you're like her." Ning Qing bit her lip. She now regretted leaving Qin Ran to Chen Shulan, which led to her current personality.
Qin Ran became a little impatient and put her hand on the car door.
“Tell me, what’s wrong with the capital?” Ning Qing looked at Qin Ran in the rearview mirror.
“It’s just not good.” Qin Ran opened the door directly, narrowed her eyes slightly, and looked quite irritable. “Don’t look for me anymore.”
She got out of the car and left.
**
In the evening, Qin Ran came out of the school clinic slowly, carrying a pot of water.
It was almost time for evening self-study, and a group of people in the back row of Class 9 were excitedly discussing something.
Qin Ran coughed twice and sat back in her chair. It was rare to see Qiao Sheng and Xu Yaoguang also discussing the matter.
According to Qiao Sheng, there weren't many things that could interest Xu Yaoguang.
Qin Ran slowly took out a book from the hole in the table and unscrewed the lid of the cup.
“Sister Ran, did you know that there’s a new student coming to our class?” Qiao Sheng waved at Qin Ran as soon as he saw her, looking excited. “Do you know who it is?”
