After sending this WeChat message, He Chen picked up another can of beer.
He opened the pull ring with one hand and drank while checking WeChat.
Among the five veterans of 129, He Chen is the barrel.
Qu Zixiao asked her a question on WeChat. He Chen glanced at it and ignored it without replying. She was waiting for Qin Ran's call.
Sure enough, within two minutes.
The phone in He Chen's hand rang.
She looked down and saw that it was Qin Ran.
He Chen picked up the phone casually. She was about to lean back on the sofa, but then she remembered something and looked at the two men opposite her. She paused, then stood up, walked to the balcony and closed the balcony door.
“Sister Chen.” On the other side of the phone, Qin Ran was standing on the second floor of the villa, in the room that Cheng Mu had prepared for her.
The lights in the room were off. Qin Ran stood outside the French window, watching Cheng Juan's car slowly drive in from the bottom of the building.
...
...
He Chen was six years older than Qin Ran. At He Chen's strong request, Qin Ran called her Sister Chen.
"I didn't get much information," He Chen was lying on the balcony, "but because of you, when I was investigating the case, I also checked the M Continent Underground Alliance?"
After hearing this, Qin Ran knew that the news He Chen had received was true.
But she paused for a long while before nodding slowly, "Yes."
"Then you checked correctly," He Chen smiled, "Little sister, be careful and clean up the information. Tsk, I didn't expect that."
“Are there any traces?” Qin Ran frowned.
He Chen shook his head, "I don't know, but there should be some of your confidants, right?"
Hearing this, Qin Ran remained silent.
He Chen waited for a long time, but didn't hear Qin Ran's answer, so he didn't ask any more questions. Qin Ran was involved in too many things, so many that He Chen didn't want to check them out. "Okay, but I want to remind you that the recent events in the capital may be caused by someone trying to force you."
"I understand." Qin Ran looked downstairs with a pair of dark eyes.
Cheng Juan was also on the phone downstairs. He seemed to sense someone was watching him. He raised his head slightly, looked towards the window, paused, then hung up the phone and walked upstairs.
“It’s all right to know.” He Chen knew that Qin Ran always had her own ideas. “I’ll just remind you that if there’s anything going on in Beijing recently, I think Boss Chang Ning should have told you about it, right?”
“Yes.” Qin Ran nodded.
The two talked for a few words and then hung up the phone.
Just as Qin Ran hung up the phone, she heard three knocks on the door.
Qin Ran didn’t turn around, but just stood outside the window. “It’s not locked.”
Cheng Juan waited for her to respond before pushing the door open.
"Just now...did you hear everything that Butler Xu said?" He stood beside her without turning on the lights, and looked at her in the dim light from outside.
Qin Ran just nodded and said nothing.
There was no expression on his face.
At first, she followed Chen Shulan's instructions and did not agree to Principal Xu.
But in recent years, Principal Xu's treatment of her was second only to Master Wei.
Xu Shiying means a lot to her.
Until now, even though Xu Shiying was 90% willing to die, Qin Ran couldn't believe it. How could the person who had vowed to protect her and Cheng Juan a few days ago now lie coldly in bed?
"Mr. Xu is just that kind of person," Cheng Juan sighed. He reached out and hugged him, looking at the lights outside. "When he identified you as the only heir, you should have known how noble and arrogant he was. He knew the truth about your grandfather leaving the capital... He, he went to look for your grandparents."
Knowing what had enabled the Xu family to rise to prominence, Xu Shiying could only do this.
"I can't forgive him for not saying anything." Qin Ran hadn't cried since she knew Xu Shiying was dead, but now she couldn't help crying. She smiled bitterly, "I can't forgive myself either..."
If she hadn't been focusing on the Qin family's affairs, if she hadn't been focusing on finding the cause of her grandfather's death, she would at least have discovered that something was wrong with the Xu family!
At least we can stop Principal Xu!
“You can’t stop him,” Cheng Juan let go of his hand. He put his hands on Qin Ran’s shoulders, lowered his head, and spoke more seriously than ever before. “Don’t you know how arrogant Old Xu is? He used to dislike Fang Zhenbo’s style, but the Xu family was more disgusting than Fang Zhenbo. Old Xu’s death was an apology and a statement of his will. It was a relief for him. He is different from your grandmother. Your grandmother was worried about you.”
Cheng Juan didn't say anything else...
The death of Mr. Xu...
Apologies are one thing, but...
He was also provoking Qin Ran at the same time.
It is obvious that Mr. Xu has achieved his goal.
Cheng Juan pursed his lips and looked out the door with cold eyes.
**
The news of Mr. Xu's death quickly spread in the capital.
The funeral was hosted by Butler Xu and Xu Yaoguang.
First it was Old Man Cheng, then Old Man Xu. All of this happened to the Qin Family. All the old families in Beijing remember that the Qin Family was destroyed because the old man of the Qin Family died for unknown reasons, which allowed the Ouyang Family to take over.
The death of Mr. Xu sounded a wake-up call to the people in the capital.
at the same time.
Beijing, high-rise financial center.
In the office.
The man in black knocked on the door and walked in respectfully, "Sir, Miss Ouyang..."
"What?" Minghai turned slightly and looked at the man in black.
The man in black knelt on one knee and said, "Miss Ouyang has been abducted by Qin Ran for two days, and...the people we went in to look for have disappeared without a trace!"
“Qin Ran?” Ming Hai put down his teacup and raised his eyebrows. “Did I really underestimate her?”
The man in black didn't dare to speak.
Minghai tapped his fingers on the teacup. He suddenly smiled and said calmly, "Okay, help me contact her. I'll meet her in person and see what's so good about her."
"You want to meet her in person? She is just a remnant of the Qin family." The subordinate was stunned: "There is absolutely no need."
