Tinglan.
Cheng Wenru came early without finishing his work at the company.
Cheng Juan was sitting on the sofa downstairs, his legs slightly crossed, with his usual computer on his knees.
Cheng Mu squatted in a small corner, holding a small shovel and a series of tools very seriously, muttering to himself that his brother did not take good care of the flowers.
Cheng Wenru went upstairs to look for Qin Ran, but couldn't find her. Then she came down and sat opposite Cheng Juan: "Ran Ran hasn't finished class yet?"
"Wait a moment." Cheng Juan tapped the keyboard carelessly without raising his head.
"Then wait a little longer," Cheng Wenru sighed regretfully, sat up straight, tapped her knees with her fingertips, and narrowed her eyes slightly: "Have you heard that the Physics Laboratory is going to have a new person who is not from one of the four major families?"
The physics laboratory specializes in engineering research on weapons and automated machinery.
Cheng Juan never paid much attention to these things, his eyes were light, "Really?"
"Why don't you show any emotion at all?" Cheng Wenru crossed her arms and looked at him with her chin raised. "Haven't you already started arguing with Big Brother?"
...
...
"Who told you I want to compete with him?" Cheng Juan raised the corner of his lips, glanced at her casually, and temporarily stopped his fingertips on the keyboard.
"It's all over the family," Cheng Wenru leaned forward, "Regarding the incident with the Second Hall Master, my elder brother's position in the Cheng family has been shaken by you. That's fine. If you don't do anything, you'll make a big splash."
"It was an accident," Cheng Juan couldn't help but smile when he mentioned this, with an elegant look flowing between his eyebrows, "I won't argue with him."
Cheng Wenru leaned back, frowning, "Why don't you fight? You should know that big brother won't let you live in the end."
The Cheng family is doing well under the old man's management.
The Qin family has been killing each other until now, not even the other four families can squeeze in.
For a family, the most important thing is its leader. He must appoint people based on their merits, have a broad mind and be magnanimous. Otherwise, it will be difficult for the family to achieve great success.
When Mr. Cheng gave him the name Cheng Raohan, he hoped that he would have a broad mind.
Unexpectedly, he ended up taking after his mother. Over the years, Old Master Cheng became more and more disappointed with Cheng Raohan, but Cheng Juan had never been interested in the Cheng family, and Cheng Wenru focused on the company, which allowed Cheng Raohan to dominate the Cheng family.
"We can fight for it," Cheng Juan said in a calm voice with a hint of nonchalance, "but the one I'm fighting for is not me."
He casually put the computer on his lap on the table, looked at Cheng Wenru, and said slowly, "It's you."
"Me?" Cheng Wenru paused, then shook his head and laughed, "Why would it be me?"
"It can only be you," Cheng Juan stood up and picked up the car keys on the table with his fingertips. When he walked to the door, he paused for a moment before slowing down his voice: "The Cheng family still needs someone from the Cheng family to inherit it."
The door was closed gently.
Cheng Wenru sat on the sofa, narrowing her sharp eyes.
"Miss, have some tea." Cheng Mu washed his hands, went to the kitchen and poured a cup of tea and placed it next to Cheng Wenru.
Cheng Wenru reached out and took it.
Hand holding a teacup.
Her brows knitted slightly, her fingertips tapping the teacup unconsciously. This was not the first time she had discussed this with Cheng Juan.
But in the past, Cheng Juan always responded to her nonchalantly, and then did what he had to do. He would at most take over half of the Cheng family's affairs, and once they were on the right track, he would hand them over to the Cheng family.
That was how it was at the base in the beginning. He participated in special training for half a year and climbed up to the position of head of the base. However, after he had trained a team of people, he just gave up and left to learn photography. The old man was very mad at him at first, but in the end he couldn't bear to say anything to him.
There are many more like this. It is rumored that he has a wide range of interests, acts too casually, is too conceited, and will find it difficult to achieve great things.
Cheng Wenru thought so at first, until later...
The old man was seriously ill, so Cheng Jin took her to the auction house and saw the "Forget-Sorrow", a thing that looked like an alien species.
The old man's condition has stabilized since then, and Cheng Jin has told her not to tell anyone else about this.
Later, Cheng Juan took her to start a company.
It was rumored that she had extraordinary means, but in fact, her means were not a little bit weaker than Cheng Juan's. Even half of her decisive means in the business world were learned from Cheng Juan.
She knew that she had changed a lot, and several old people in the company that Cheng Juan had hired would teach her something new from time to time...
She knew better than anyone that if Cheng Juan wanted to succeed the Cheng family, nothing would be impossible as long as he wanted.
Over the past few years, she had discussed this issue with Cheng Juan more than once, and Cheng Juan had always been very perfunctory with him, except for this time...
The Cheng family still needs someone from the Cheng family to inherit... What does this mean?
Cheng Wenru took a sip of water and recalled the first time Cheng Juan was taken back to the Cheng family by Old Man Cheng. She was still a minor and only remembered that it was a good year and there was the largest meteor shower in a hundred years.
The structure of the capital city changed greatly, and the heads of several major families all went away to other places that year.
When Mr. Cheng came back, he brought back a three-year-old boy who looked like a jade sculpture. The boy had been in a coma for three days before waking up.
Old Master Cheng just explained to her and Cheng Raohan that he was his youngest son and said nothing else.
Cheng Wenru's mother passed away after giving birth to her. Old Master Cheng had never remarried for so many years. Suddenly, he had a son and doted on this son a hundred times more. Cheng Raohan could not accept it, but Cheng Wenru could.
When Cheng Juan was a child, he was brought up by Cheng Wenru for a period of time, and the relationship between the two siblings was much deeper than that between Cheng Raohan.
Cheng Wenru finished a cup of tea and thought about a lot of things.
Everything seems to have some clue, but also seems to have no clue.
Cheng Wenru put down the teacup, looked at Cheng Mu, and tapped his crossed legs: "Mumu, how did my third brother pick you up?"
She didn't know what Cheng Jin was doing, but from his words and actions, she could feel that he was more capable than the old people in her company.
"Pick it up?" Cheng Mu shook his head immediately after hearing it, paused for a moment, and then stammered to explain.
"What? Speak louder." Cheng Wenru raised his eyebrows.
"I said that my brother and his men used me to scam Mr. Juan!" Cheng Mu said with a red face.
Cheng Wenru was really curious now. She propped her chin on her hand and wanted to ask Cheng Mu how they managed to scam people.
At this moment, Cheng Mu said nothing and lowered his head to trim the flowers.

The weather is very cold near mid-November.
Today was not a holiday, so Cheng Juan parked the car at the intersection and walked for two minutes to the school gate.
He raised his wrist to check the time, estimating that he would have to wait another minute before he casually looked up at the school gate.
No matter what time it is, there are always a lot of people at the gate of Kyoto University.
Cheng Juan waited for a minute before he saw the person in the crowd wearing a hoodie. She half lowered her head and seemed quite impatient. He could also see the black earphone cable sliding down the white hoodie.
Winter comes early in the capital.
In November, the temperature has dropped to as low as four degrees Celsius, and many people have wrapped themselves in cotton clothes.
When they were not far away, Cheng Juan pulled her over and took off her hat: "Are you cold? Where's your coat?"
He went to deal with some things last night. When he came back in the morning, Qin Ran had already gone to school to study. Cheng Mu also went to find Lin Siran's father early in the morning.
Cheng Juan lowered his head and pulled open his coat, wrapping Qin Ran up from head to toe. Then he tilted his head to look at Qin Ran, thinking for a moment, and felt that Cheng Shui had taken good care of her last winter...
During this period of time, Cheng Juan felt that Chen Shulan's worries were not unreasonable. Qin Ran could kill herself.
"It's a bit cold. It wasn't so cold this morning." Qin Ran reached out and casually pulled her clothes, revealing her head. She replied without much concern. The school had air conditioning, so she dressed a little more casually.
Cheng Juan glanced at her and said nothing. He just let go of her hand, took out the key and opened the car door. He lowered his voice and asked, "Sister Ran, have you considered it?"
Qin Ran gathered her clothes and said vaguely without looking up, "No."
Cheng Juan chuckled, "Okay."
He drove back to Tinglan. Cheng Wenru was still sitting on the sofa, seemingly thinking about life.
Seeing Qin Ran coming back, her eyes lit up and she gave up thinking about life: "Ran Ran, I'll take you to a private restaurant. The boiled meat and ribs there are absolutely delicious!"
Qin Ran casually placed all the books on the table.
At the top of the book are two upside-down 4a sheets.
Cheng Mu walked over and took a look. He could vaguely see the "Agreement" on the back of the paper.
She thought for a moment, looked at Cheng Wenru, and said apologetically: "I have a dinner appointment with a teacher today."
"Teacher?" Cheng Wen thought of Master Wei subconsciously, "Then... can I invite you to dinner with Master Wei?"
Qin Ran took off her coat and prepared to go upstairs to change clothes. After hearing Cheng Wenru's words, she thought for a moment and raised her eyes: "Not Master Wei."

Little Cheng Jin (stopped Cheng Juan’s car) with a blank expression: You hit my brother and made him stupid, please be responsible for him.
Little Chengmu: ...
