After Cheng Jin finished speaking, Cheng Juan remained silent, still looking towards the door.
After a long while, he turned to Cheng Jin and said calmly, "He wants to see me."
The study was very quiet, and there was no sound outside the door. Cheng Juan's words sounded somewhat sarcastic.
"Tomorrow, the group headquarters." Cheng Jin lowered his eyes.
Cheng Juan smiled. He glanced at Cheng Jin with a calm look. In the end, he didn't say anything. He just casually said, "I know."
After saying that, he opened the door and walked towards Qin Ran.
Cheng Jin was still standing there, looking at Cheng Juan's back, and couldn't help but pursed his lips.
Cheng Mu's collection room.
Qin Ran was still studying the rusty lock.
This was left for her by Chen Shulan. She didn't want to use brute force to break it open, but Chen Shulan didn't leave her a key either.
...
...
Just when she was thinking about whether to find a locksmith, Cheng Juan squatted down beside her and said, "I want to unlock the door."
“Hmm,” Qin Ran half-crouched in the same place and fiddled with the lock for a while. The lock was quite retro, and she didn’t know why there was so much rust. “I wonder if it can still be opened.”
As she was thinking, Cheng Juan reached out, took the box from her hand, and took a look. "It's locked with a spring bead. It can be opened."
As he spoke, he asked Cheng Mu to bring the toolbox over.
Then he took the wooden box outside, put it on the table, pulled out a chair and sat down.
Qin Ran followed him and sat opposite him, resting her chin on her hand and looking at him curiously, "You can open this, too?"
She felt that she had learned enough and it was messy. What kind of mess was Cheng Juan learning?
Who can connect a doctor with a locksmith?
I also seem to have heard Qin Hanqiu say that he is also good at economics.
"It's okay. I've studied it for a while." Cheng Juan glanced at her and spoke slowly.
Cheng Mu took out the toolbox, Cheng Juan reached in and rummaged through it, found two paper clips, pinched them with his slender fingers, straightened them easily, and then bent the ends into a tiny arc.
He then casually took out a wrench and inserted one end into the lock core.
Qin Ran had never studied the structure of these locks. In her eyes, there was no lock that could not be broken.
At this time, I didn't see how he operated.
A pair of eyes just looked at Cheng Juan. He was always lazy and careless in doing things on weekdays. It seemed that most things were predictable and he didn't take them too seriously.
At this moment, he lowered his eyes, his well-defined profile seemed a little pale, exuding confidence.
"Click"
The lock is opened.
Cheng Juan casually threw the paper clip and wrench into the toolbox, then raised his chin towards Qin Ran and tapped the blue box with his fingertips. “Take it.”
Qin Ran was not on guard against Cheng Juan and Cheng Mu, so she opened the lid of the box.
There was a document inside, which looked like a research report, and also a piece of dark black metal. It was unknown how many years it had been there, but there was no sign of rust.
Cheng Mu saw these but didn't understand anything.
When Chen Shulan and Ning Wei were in Yuncheng, Cheng Mu noticed that these two people were not like ordinary people, but he couldn't guess what was wrong.
Of course, it couldn't be seen at this time. He just lowered his head to glance at the wooden box and then looked away.
He went back to his room and read the pile of books Qin Ran gave him.
Qin Ran looked at the research document and pursed her lips, knowing that it should be the last thing left by her grandfather.
She rummaged behind her, took out the document and the piece of metal, and found a slightly yellowed letter at the bottom of the box.
Just as she took out the letter to read it, Cheng Juan suddenly held down Qin Ran's right hand.
Qin Ran looked up at Cheng Juan and raised her eyebrows.
"Take it back to your room and have a look." Cheng Juan didn't look at her, but only stared at the piece of metal in the box. After a long while, he raised his head and said, "Your grandpa is really..."
He didn't know what words to use to describe it, but his dark eyes clearly showed respect.
"Okay." Qin Ran didn't ask anything.
She snapped the lid of the box shut.
The two went upstairs together.
After Cheng Juan left, Cheng Jin walked into Cheng Mu's collection room. Looking at Cheng Mu sitting cross-legged on the floor reading comics, he asked calmly, "Has Ouyang Wei contacted you recently?"
"No." Cheng Mu looked up and glanced at Cheng Jin in surprise. "You guys didn't let me contact her."
He still hasn't figured out why.
Cheng Jin said "hmm" thoughtfully, "Yes, you did the right thing."
"Oh, by the way, brother, wait a minute, I'll transfer some money to you." Cheng Mu remembered something, he took out his mobile phone and transferred 20 million to Cheng Jin.
Cheng Mu has to go through a lot of procedures to transfer money, not as fast as Cheng Jin. It will probably take several hours to verify 20 million before it arrives in the account.
But when Cheng Jin saw the 100 million on Cheng Mu's account, he paused and was quite surprised. "Where did you get so much money?"
"Miss Qin taught me." Cheng Mu raised his chin, and his brows showed that he was quite proud.
Seeing Cheng Mu like this, Cheng Jin simply said nothing.
He stood up and walked out of the room.
"I'm going to the study to take care of something." Back upstairs, Cheng Juan glanced at Qin Ran and touched her cheek. "Don't think too much. Just do whatever you want."
After thinking for a while, he lowered his head and said, "It's best to follow me closely recently."
Qin Ran looked at him. Old Xu had said this to her before.
She nodded and wanted to ask Cheng Juan if he knew what was in the box.
But looking at Cheng Juan's reaction, she could probably guess that he definitely knew.
She turned around and walked towards the room thoughtfully.
"Forget it," Cheng Juan looked at her back, thought for a moment, and then reached out and pulled her back, "Let's go to the study room to study together."
What Chen Shulan left behind were indeed Ning Er's research materials.
Qin Ran sat on the table in the study, looking at the information on it.
There was indeed another list in there, just as Mr. Xu had said.
Chen Shulan has always been Ning Er's assistant. When Fang Zhenbo called Chen Shulan "Professor Chen" at Chen Shulan's funeral, he obviously recognized her.
Cheng Juan was turning on his computer, and Cheng Shui from Tongzhou pulled up a video.
After the meeting, he went out to answer a phone call.
Qin Ran sat on the chair, looking at Cheng Juan's back, tapping the list left by Chen Shulan with one hand, thinking for a while.
Before I could think of anything, the cell phone next to me rang.
