Ranran definitely doesn't want you to know about this. After she disrupted the bandit's nest, she destroyed all the evidence. So don't mention it," Feng Loucheng's face returned to normal. "The explosion at the Ninghai Town research base is not simple. There is a big force behind it that I haven't found. ”
After saying that, he put out his cigarette and walked directly to the other side.
He could say so much to Cheng Juan today just because he hoped Qin Ran would be better.
“Why are you here?” Qin Ran was thinking about what Principal Xu asked on her way out. Seeing Cheng Juan standing in the wind, she couldn’t help but raise her eyebrows.
Cheng Juan retracted his gaze and lowered his eyes, not letting Qin Ran see his expression.
The phone in his pocket was ringing, but he didn't even look at it.
He just waited for Qin Ran to walk in, then he directly reached out and hugged her waist, rested his chin on her head, and asked instead of answering, "You came out so soon?"
“You have a problem, Master Cheng.” Qin Ran leaned in his arms, poked his chest with her hand, and frowned slightly.
She was always perceptive and could sense that Cheng Juan was in a bad mood.
Qin Ran took out the phone from his pocket with her other hand and took a look. "It's your dad."
...
...
"No." Cheng Juan whispered in a hoarse voice.
There was something wrong with his reaction. Qin Ran glanced at her phone. Cheng Juan said he didn’t want to answer it, so she ignored it and paused for a moment. “Are you and your dad okay?”
"When I was twelve, I knew he was not my biological father." Cheng Juan paused.
“Hmm?” Qin Ran was stunned. She looked up at Cheng Juan.
I really didn't expect that Mr. Cheng would be so indulgent towards him...
From this angle, Cheng Juan's eyes seemed to be a little red.
Qin Ran remembered what Cheng Wenru said. He even studied cultural relic restoration for a pottery horse of Mr. Cheng...
No wonder he has always been reluctant to take over the Cheng family.
Qin Ran didn’t really look into the Cheng family’s affairs. When she was in Yuncheng, she only knew that Cheng Juan had been in and out of the Asian Transportation Headquarters.
“It’s okay.” Qin Ran reached out to hug him back, raised her head slightly, and smiled, “Don’t be sad, Sister Ran will protect you from now on.”
Cheng Juan was stunned.
He lowered his head to look at Qin Ran. From this angle, he could see her clear eyelashes. She was completely enveloped by his shadow. Her usually arrogant voice was gentle at this moment.
The eyebrows and eyes are so delicate and beautiful that they make people tremble.
Cheng Juan's heart, which had been almost broken before, was now bitter but also mixed with helpless heartache.
He mentioned the matter of Mr. Cheng only because he didn't want her to notice that something was wrong with him.
Who knew that before he had time to feel sorry for her, she comforted him instead.
He lowered his head and looked at her quietly for a long while, then reached out and held her face, lowered his head slightly, and gently kissed her lips, resting his forehead on hers, and said with a low smile: "Okay, you will protect me from now on."
**
The two left Xu's house and returned to Tinglan.
After returning to Tinglan, Qin Ran checked WeChat and said to Cheng Mu, "Go check my box first."
In that box, there was a box her grandmother left for her.
She looked at Song Luting's message on WeChat——
[Has Mingyue contacted you?] 】
Qin Ran paused for a moment and replied:
【without. 】
There is no news from Song Luting.
Cheng Mu put down the game console, took the key and went downstairs, "Miss Qin, what are you going to take this time?"
He was still brooding over the big pink diamond that Gu Xichi had given him.
“Find something for my grandma.” Qin Ran glanced at her phone, hooked Cheng Juan’s finger, frowned slightly, and spoke thoughtfully.
Downstairs, Cheng Mu opened the door of his toy room, then opened a secret door and a safe, and carefully took out Qin Ran's box. He reached out and patted the non-existent dust on it: "Ms. Qin, everything is here."
Qin Ran hummed, half-crouched beside the box, and unzipped it.
There's a bunch of stuff in there.
Qin Ran scanned the room and saw Chen Shulan’s box underneath Yan Xi’s Grammy trophy. She casually put a stack of unopened books on the ground, put the Grammy trophy aside, and then picked up the old blue box.
Cheng Mu squatted opposite Qin Ran.
He had already looked at the things in Qin Ran's box more than once, so it would be enough to look at them again.
He guessed that these things all had some history, and he even searched on Baidu for the Grammy trophy.
He was not interested in the broken box in Qin Ran's hand. He couldn't study it anyway.
His eyes fell on a book that Qin Ran had casually put down.
"Miss Qin, what's that in your hand?" Cheng Mu had seen this book last time and it felt a bit like a comic book.
Qin Ran looked down and didn't care much. "Comics, do you want to read it?"
Cheng Mu nodded.
Qin Ran handed it to him casually.
Cheng Mu quickly took it, "This is still packaged..."
“Go ahead and tear it.” Qin Ran said calmly.
Then she lowered her head to study the wooden box. Chen Shulan didn't give her the key, and the lock of the box was a little rusty.
Cheng Juan had been leaning against the door frame a few steps away, with his arms folded across his chest, looking down at Qin Ran.
Seeing her looking at the box, he stood up straight and wanted to go forward to help Qin Ran.
Outside the door, Cheng Jin came back. He glanced at Cheng Juan and said in a deep voice, "Master Juan."
He looked serious, as if something was wrong.
Cheng Juan glanced at him, then glanced at Qin Ran who was half-crouching and studying the wooden box, and then glanced at Cheng Jin.
A minute later, the two stopped at Cheng Jin's study.
The door was half open. Cheng Juan looked in Qin Ran's direction and said casually, "Speak."
"Master Jun," Cheng Jin paused and said, "your father... wants to see you."
